Rebirth in the 80's: The Daily Life of the Villain's Mom
Chapter 430: Two Yuan per Bottle
Chen Bing waved his hand, "That’s not important. The fact that you know so much is already impressive."
Jiang Ran asked Chen Bing to drive her, and together they went to purchase medicinal herbs.
After buying the herbs, they also needed to buy a large pot for boiling them and small spray bottles for the solution.
Apart from these, Jiang Ran also went to customize some label paper.
Jiang Ran also planned to register a company, a pharmaceutical company.
But this wasn’t urgent and couldn’t be completed in a short time, so it was something to be done gradually.
The customized labels would take a day to be ready, which was just right, as making mosquito repellent also needed time.

Back home, Jiang Ran talked about this with Wang Cuihua and Pei Baoshan.
As soon as they heard there was something to help with, they immediately perked up.
Many times, what people fear is not being busy or tired, but having nothing to do.
Wanting to be idle and do nothing, and being forced to be idle with nothing to do, are two completely different states.
Making the solution was actually quite simple. It only required processing the herbs Jiang Ran had brought, following her method, and finally filtering and bottling it.
The task wasn’t complicated, it just required some hands-on ability.
For Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan, who had spent half their lives doing farm work, hands-on ability was unquestionable.
They only followed Jiang Ran once and were able to do it properly.
After watching for a while, Jiang Ran, assured that she didn’t need to worry about anything, let them handle it.
Chen Bing, having nothing to do at the moment, stayed to help.
By the next day, they received the customized label designs and stuck them onto the bottles.
The bottles were originally transparent plastic, and after being filled with the solution, they looked plain, almost like tinted water.
But now it was different.
With labels and text, at least people would know this was mosquito repellent.
After spraying it on, not a single mosquito would bite—this effect, they had personally verified.
This time, they made a total of two hundred bottles of mosquito repellent, each bottle about the size of a palm.
For now, they could only buy bottles of this size and had to make do.
If they really needed to mass-produce in the future, they could then custom-make the bottles.
Even though there were only two hundred bottles, Chen Bing wasn’t the least bit dismissive.
In fact, he was quite delighted.
After celebrating, Chen Bing remembered the main issue.
"Oh right, Ranran, how should we price this?"
How much should we sell each bottle for?
Jiang Ran hadn’t really considered this problem before.
Thinking about the cost of the herbs, the bottle, the label, and their manual labor...
Calculating it like this, each bottle of mosquito repellent wasn’t actually cheap.
Jiang Ran put away her smile and said seriously, "Each bottle, two yuan."
In this era, mosquito repellent at two yuan a bottle was indeed not cheap.
