Chapter 229 The idea is right

"Let's see if this can be done..."

Dong Dazhu did not hide anything and told Zhuang Qingning all his thoughts and the general reasons.

Zhuang Qingning knew that Dong Dazhu was a simple and honest person who was quite prudent in his actions. He was very trustworthy in what he said. However, his cousin...

Zhuang Qingning smiled and said, "Brother Dong, this is not a trivial matter after all. We need to discuss it slowly before making a decision. I really can't agree to it for the time being."

"To others, this is just a matter of selling tofu. You are a tofu grinder, and someone is willing to buy it, and even open a shop to sell it. You should be happy. But tofu is not beans or wheat. You can't just have a lot of stock at home, and you can be happy if someone comes to buy it."

"Not only does the tofu have to be ground fresh, but the stall has to be set up in advance. For example, in my tofu shop, we can produce as much tofu, bean curd skin, and dried tofu as we want every day. If someone wants more on a certain day, we won't be able to get enough."

"If I want to open a tofu shop, I have to add a few more tofu pots, prepare stoves, buy grinding mills, and hire workers. The output is almost fixed. If the tofu is produced according to the daily quantity, but you can't sell the tofu, the goods you ask for from me will increase one day and decrease the next day, and it will be difficult for me to do business."

"Let's talk about it. I'm the seller and you're the buyers. What the buyers do with the things after they buy them back is their own business. Whether they can't sell them or they rot in the shop, it has nothing to do with my tofu shop. But I want to run this tofu shop for a long time. Since I want to open a shop in the county to sell the tofu from my shop, I have to do it well and ensure sales and reputation. Only then can I succeed. If I just open a shop casually and don't spread my good reputation, people will look down on me. In the future, my sales in the county will be completely blocked, and the loss will outweigh the gain."

"And you can see that although my tofu shop doesn't make much money, it is a steady profit every day. If I suddenly open more stalls because of opening a shop, I will have to bear the risk of losses. That would make me feel heavy-hearted. It's not worth it."

"So, we can't say that this matter is absolutely safe, but we have to at least guarantee an 80% chance of success before we can do it. We have to discuss all the details, but this shop is not owned by Brother Dong, so it's hard to discuss."

"What Miss Zhuang means is..." Dong Dazhu scratched his ear.

"Since Brother Dong's cousin wants to do this and open a shop, you might as well let your cousin come and talk to me about the shop. I will also take a closer look at the situation before making the decision." Zhuang Qingning said with a smile.

"I understand what Miss Zhuang said. This matter is really not a simple matter, and it is not something that can be done by just saying a word. It really requires a thorough discussion before it can be done."

Dong Dazhu said, "Well, I will talk to my cousin when I get back later and ask him to prepare. How big should the shop be, where should it be opened, how to sell it, and how much goods should be taken from Miss Zhuang every day. He should have an idea in mind. He should also meet with Miss Zhuang and have a good talk about this matter."

"That's exactly what I meant." Zhuang Qingning said with a smile, "To be honest with you, Brother Dong, I also had the idea of ​​opening a shop in the county town before, but I was temporarily tied up with the tofu shop and the tofu shop in town, so I didn't have the energy to take care of other things."

"Right now, my business is still booming, Qingsui and I don't have much to spend, and the money we earn on weekdays is enough for us to spend, so we are not particularly anxious about opening a shop in the county town."

What he meant was that if his cousin took the matter seriously, then they could still discuss it. But if it was just a spur of the moment decision, then there was no need to discuss it, and Zhuang Qingning was not in a hurry to do this.

Dong Dazhu understood what Zhuang Qingning meant and nodded. "I know, don't worry, Miss Zhuang. I will definitely pass the message to my cousin. I will make an appointment with you later so that you can meet and discuss this matter in detail."

No matter what, he is just a middleman. The matter still needs to be discussed carefully between the two of them.

"Okay, then I'll wait for news from Brother Dong." Zhuang Qingning replied with a smile.

Saying this showed her great sincerity at the moment. Dong Dazhu understood and nodded. After a few words of greeting, seeing that it was getting late, he hurriedly drove the ox cart towards the county town.

Zhuang Qingning went to find Zhuang Jingye and told him about the bean seeds.

"This is what I think, Miss Ning. Don't say it has anything to do with you. Just say it was my idea. After all, you run a tofu shop. If you say too much, some people will think too much. Even if you have good intentions, others may not think so. It's better to say it was my idea. Others will feel more at ease."

Zhuang Jingye said, "Besides, you can't rush into this matter. The more you do good for them, the more likely they will have something fishy about it. When the time comes, they can do whatever they want after the matter is over."

"When the beans are planted this time, it will be time to harvest them in the fall. When others see that the families who planted the new beans harvested more beans, they will know what to do next time."

"Don't be too anxious about this matter, Miss Ning. There is a lot of time ahead. You should slowly build up this business and slowly win over this person."

"That's the truth." Zhuang Qingning nodded.

She naturally understood the principle of word-of-mouth marketing, but as the task was imminent, she had to use this method to save time.

But this matter cannot be told to others, Zhuang Qingning also feels that if this matter is rushed, it will indeed easily make people have a rebellious mentality. Instead of thinking too much, it is better to have a cold attitude. It depends on whether you are willing to plant it or not. Others also have a rebellious mentality, thinking that there is nothing fishy about this matter, and secondly, it should be really good, so they are so fearless.

In general, Zhuang Jingye’s thinking at this time is correct.

It was almost time and the busy farmers should be back from the fields. Smoke was rising from the chimneys of every household. Zhuang Jingye, with his hands behind his back, went with Zhuang Qingning to the big tung tree in front of the village ancestral hall, picked up the bamboo whistle in his hand and blew it hard.

The bamboo whistle is the sound that indicates something is happening in the village and the villagers need to gather. Every household recognizes this sound. The villagers who heard the bamboo whistle gathered under the big tung tree in front of the ancestral hall one after another.
