Chapter 281: Unfulfilled Expectations



Lin Huihui was very confident that her braised food could sell well, so on the first day she went to the meat processing factory to get goods, she took a total of 1,000 kilograms of various types of meat.

When Mrs. He heard that they had brought back so much meat, she was shocked: "Huihui, you brought back so much meat, can we sell it all?"

She also dreamed of making a lot of money by selling braised food, but this was only the first day!

If this can't be sold, won't it be a waste of money?

Mother Lu and other members of the Lu family were also very nervous.

To start a braised food business, you definitely need to invest money in the early stages.

Lin Huihui didn't have much money, and her biggest role was that she had connections at the meat processing factory and got the goods.

The money was pooled together by the Lu family and He's wife!

Mrs. He took out 150 yuan. The Lu family had not yet split up, and the first and second branches were also doing business, but they did not have to take any money, only Lu's mother could take it, so Lu's mother took out 350 yuan, making a total of 500 yuan.

If this thing cannot be sold and remains in their hands, the Lu family and Mrs. He will suffer a huge loss.

Lin Huihui disagreed: "I heard that Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi can purchase nearly 10,000 catties of goods every day. What does that mean? It means that the county has a large audience for braised food. We only have 1,000 catties. After the stew is done, it will be at most 500 to 600 catties. We will definitely be able to sell it!"

"How can the Xie family sell so much every day?" The Lu family and He's wife were surprised.

“That’s right!”

The Lu family and Mrs. He finally stopped talking.

The Xie family can sell so much every day, and they only have 1,000 kilograms, there is no reason why they can’t sell it.

They didn't know that Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi's goods were not only sold in one county, but in two counties! And they were not only sold in the county town, those who wholesaled in their store would also carry them to various towns and villages to sell.

The hopeful Lu family and He's wife started to prepare the braised food. Their stove was small and the project was big, so everyone was busy and sweating.

But they don't feel tired at all and have happy smiles on their faces as they imagine that they can make money by selling these braised foods so that they can eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks in the future.

Lin Huihui, on the other hand, was almost vomiting as she was washing the filth from her internal organs.

After the stew was ready, they asked Uncle Niu to come over and help transport the goods to the county town.

In order to sell all these goods, the entire Lu family, except Lu Dingyuan and Lu's father, went out.

When they arrived at the county town, they followed the example of Xie Qingxiao, Lin Xiangyi and the others and went shopping separately.

The first wife and the second wife formed one team each, and the remaining team consisted of Lu's mother Lin Huihui and He's wife.

Neither the first nor the second branch of the Lu family had ever sold goods, and they were very nervous and anxious. To be on the safe side, they only wanted to take out 50 kilograms each to sell.

Lin Huihui did not agree and forced them to take 100 kilograms each.

There are about 400 kilograms left.

Lin Huihui took Lu's mother and He's wife to sell the remaining 400 kilograms.

Although Mother Lu and Sister He were fearless in the village, they became extremely timid when they arrived in the county town. They could not even open their mouths when Lin Huihui asked them to shout.

Lin Huihui originally wanted to save face and was unwilling to speak. She wanted Lu's mother and He's wife to speak up, but she didn't expect that she couldn't count on these two old ladies, so she had to bite the bullet and do it herself.

Fortunately, although I felt unnatural and timid at first, after shouting out my wares a few times, I became more natural.

It’s a pity that no one is willing to pay for it!

They sold goods at the entrance of the cinema for an hour, counting the few customers. They only sold about three or four kilograms of nearly four hundred kilograms of goods.

This was a huge contrast to the scene they had expected of everything being snatched away, and neither Lu's mother nor He's wife could accept it.

"Lin Huihui, didn't you say that our braised food is better than Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi's? If it's better than Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi's, why don't customers buy our braised food?"

Mother Lu had too high expectations, and having invested a lot of money, she couldn't accept this situation and her tone became aggressive.

Mrs. He did the same, glaring at Lin Huihui with her inverted triangle eyes, looking particularly fierce.

Lin Huihui didn't understand why this happened and was in a very irritated mood. The pressure from Lu's mother and He's wife made her even more irritated, but she couldn't even curse back.

After scratching her head and thinking for a while, she finally thought of something.

"We're in the wrong place. The customers here probably don't like braised food. Let's go sell it near Xiangyi Braised Food. Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi opened a store there. It's probably because the residents nearby prefer braised food! Let's sell it nearby too. We'll definitely get better prices!"

Lin Xiangyi didn't take the Lu family's affairs too seriously. That afternoon, she rode her bike to the county town.

Kuai Le Le is being looked after by Xie's mother and Aunt Zhao. These two old ladies are both hardworking and love their children. Especially now, it is Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi who take Kuai Le Le to sleep at night.

Mother Xie and Aunt Zhao spent less time taking care of the children at night, and almost took on the entire task of taking care of the two brothers during the day.

It’s outrageous that Lin Xiangyi doesn’t take the initiative to take care of the child and can’t even hold the child during the day.

She had nothing to do anyway, so she wanted to go to the braised food shop in the county town to have a look.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and she hadn't been to the store for a long time, so she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some soda, egg cakes and other food, and gave them to the store employees as afternoon tea.

The employees were extremely happy and called her Sister Xiangyi one after another.

Lin Xiangyi worked with them on the preparations for today's opening, chatting and laughing and seemed quite happy.

After the workshop delivered the braised food and the shop opened, the employees were busy entertaining customers. Lin Xiangyi took the account book for this period from the counter and started to check it. Halfway through, she heard a quarrel.

Lin Xiangyi raised her head and looked at the two people at the center of the dispute. It turned out that they were arguing with a salesperson in their store and a gray-haired old lady who was a customer.

The old lady said: "Why are the stewed food in your shop so expensive? There are people selling it outside who sell it much cheaper than you! If I buy one kilogram from you, I can buy two kilograms from others! You are such a rip-off, you profiteer!"
