Chapter 435: Hitting a Wall



Lu Youxi heard something from the people in Chengzhou.

"But with the competition between us and Xingmi, Shilixiang will no longer be the only one in the market. Zhenxin Supermarket will not only have Shilixiang as a high-end brand of rice in the future." Lu Youxi said, "The price we and Xingmi offer your company is lower than that of Shilixiang. Shilixiang should at least have a sense of crisis."

"If they haven't done so yet and insist on raising the price, then I'm afraid I have to doubt whether Shilixiang can continue for long."

"We offer your company more profit margins than Shilixiang. Zhenxin Supermarket uses us and Xingmi for promotions, and whether it's popularity or profit, it must be more than Shilixiang." Lu Youxi smiled faintly, "Mr. Zhang, you are much more professional than me in this regard. I just put forward some superficial opinions, please forgive me."

Mr. Zhang shook his head and thought to himself that your opinion is not superficial at all.

I also know that Lu Youxi is humble, so give him face.

"Okay, I'll consider the price and give you a reply tomorrow at the latest," said Mr. Zhang.

"Okay." Lu Youxi didn't expect that such a good thing could be settled today.

The other party's caution made her feel at ease.

Lu Youxi and the village chief left with the rice cooker and went to the next company.

After getting in the taxi, Lu Youxi called Lu Zhenguo and asked him to wait for her at the entrance of the next company.

Lu Youxi has already signed up for driving lessons and has passed the first subject. He is just waiting to get his driver's license so he can buy a car.

It will be more convenient to discuss business then.

Now, because she didn't have a car and couldn't carry the rice with her, she had to trouble Lu Zhenguo to carry the rice and wait for her at the door of the next company.

After that, Lu Zhenguo had to go back to the restaurant, take two more bags of rice and go to the third company to wait for Lu Youxi.

Otherwise, it would not look good if we took so many bags of rice but didn't give all of them away.

The attitudes of the latter two companies are obviously not as good as that of Zhenxin Supermarket.

The second Jiahaowang supermarket didn’t care whether the customers went in or not.

They are not very keen on taking advantage of Hexingmi's current popularity to quickly get Hexingmi into supermarkets.

After coming out of the second company, the village chief said to Lu Youxi: "I think the attitude of this company is not very positive."

Lu Youxi nodded and said, "Because the publicity effect of Hexingmi this time is good, I directly contacted the three companies with high market share. To be honest, Zhenxin Supermarket's attitude towards us is really better than I expected. And the other party is very sincere, which makes me more inclined to negotiate a deal with them."

"As for Jia Haowang, it seems that we are dispensable to them." Lu Youxi said, "So we don't have to hold too high hopes for them."

The village chief nodded and said, "Perhaps it's because Zhenxin Supermarket is so sincere to us that I have high expectations for the other two stores."

Lu Youxi smiled and said, "Jia Haowang's attitude is normal. If we can reach an agreement and the price is right for them, it will be beneficial to both of us. If we can't reach an agreement, they should think that they won't suffer any loss."

"Hey, they just tasted our rice and gave it a very high rating." The village chief sighed regretfully.

"But they don't want to take risks. They probably think that the discussion period with He Xingmi won't lead to much progress in the future." Lu Youxi said, "And if He Xingmi really rises, it won't be too late for them to talk to He Xingmi later."

"It's okay, we still have a third store." Lu Youxi comforted the village chief, "The situation this time is much better than last time. At least we still have something to talk about, and the talks with Zhenxin Supermarket are going well."

"Besides, I'm actually well prepared this time. As long as we can become a family, it's already the best outcome."

"Let's see what the third store's attitude is." The village chief said, "I thought everyone would be like Zhenxin Supermarket."

As the two chatted, the taxi stopped in front of the head office of the third Jiayuexing Supermarket.

Lu Zhenguo was already waiting on the roadside.

Lu Youxi quickly got out of the car and took the rice that Lu Zhenguo brought. "Dad, you've worked really hard today. You should go back and have a rest."

"It's okay." Lu Zhenguo wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Now it is the end of May and the capital has become hot. Today's highest temperature has even reached 31 degrees.

Lu Zhenguo changed into a short-sleeved T-shirt, which had sweat stains on the front and back.

"Don't worry about me, just go ahead." Lu Zhenguo said.

But Lu Youxi still called a taxi for Lu Zhenguo and watched Lu Zhenguo get in before leaving.

Otherwise, if she just said that, Lu Zhenguo would not be willing to take a taxi in order to save money.

Only then did Lu Youxi go into Jiayuexing Company with the village chief.

When they arrived at the front desk, Lu Youxi smiled and said, "Hello, we are from Hexingmi Company and have already made an appointment with Mr. Cheng."

"Please wait a moment." The front desk clerk called Mr. Cheng's assistant again.

After I hung up, the receptionist said, "The second room on the left after entering the door is the conference room. Please wait inside for a moment."

"Okay." Lu Youxi walked in with the village chief.

The village chief whispered to Lu Youxi, "Why does this family's attitude seem to be worse than the second family just now?"

"As for Zhenxin Supermarket, Assistant Xiao Song came to pick us up directly at the door. The assistant also came after notifying the front desk at the second store. The front desk didn't even send us there. They just pointed the way and let us find it ourselves."

"Although not every family should treat us well, by comparison, this family really doesn't take us seriously." Lu Youxi whispered, "Uncle, let's not hold out any hope for this family. Let's just talk to them and leave. There's no need to waste time here."

"Okay." The village chief nodded. "It could also be a problem with the front desk. Let's see what the attitudes of Mr. Cheng and his people are like later."

"Um."

The two followed what the front desk said and saw a sign for a conference room on the door.

"Is this the place?" The village chief looked around but didn't see any other meeting rooms.

"It should be." Lu Youxi was about to push the door open when he was suddenly stopped by someone.

"Who are you looking for?" A young man came over and looked at them vaguely.

Lu Youxi didn't smile at this time, "We are from Xingmi Company, and we have an appointment with Mr. Cheng to come and discuss something today."

"Then why did you come to the meeting room?" the other party asked immediately.
