"Our supermarket has the strength to take a high profile, so we don't have to indulge him." Mr. Cheng said, "I can be rude to her, but she really thinks she is equal to me and can be rude to me."

"But, Mr. Cheng, Hexing rice is very famous right now, and it's being discussed a lot online. I heard that her restaurant has customers lining up to buy Hexing rice. Will other supermarkets agree with their prices?"

"Are other people stupid? The price she offers is already the purchase price of first-tier rice, only slightly lower than Shili Xiang." Mr. Cheng can remember all these purchase prices by heart, and he is indeed not sitting in this position for nothing.

"Hexing rice has never been sold in supermarkets. Why does she dare to charge this price? Just based on the sales of her small restaurant? How many customers can her small restaurant have in a day, and how many of these customers can afford her Hexing rice. Besides, the rice is packaged in large packages, and one package can be eaten for a long time, and a customer can't buy it every few days. In the short term, she saw that the Hexing rice sold in the small restaurant seemed to be very popular, but that was just a superficial prosperity, all illusion."

Mr. Cheng sneered, "She looked at the false appearance of prosperity and thought she could ask for a high price from us. She asked for an exorbitant price. She really doesn't know what she is talking about."

To Mr. Cheng, Lu Youxi really takes himself seriously.

After achieving a small success, I feel that I am great.

"People like her should be allowed to hit a wall so that they know they are not that great," said Mr. Cheng.

"Besides, the current popularity of Hexingmi is only temporary." Mr. Cheng said as he walked out. "It's hard to say what will happen after this popularity passes. In the past, many brands suddenly became popular due to temporary popularity, but the popularity cooled down in a short period of time, and they became deserted or even closed down. Now, who still remembers those brands and products?"

Mr. Cheng thought about what Lu Youxi said and got angry. "She's the only one who's still thinking about raising prices in the future? Now she's not making concessions, and no supermarket is willing to buy it. She's still planning to raise prices in the future? Dream on."

"Do you want me to find out what the other companies she contacted think?" asked the assistant.

"Okay," said Mr. Cheng. "Go and ask. But even if you ask, the result won't be any different. My years of experience are not gained in vain."

"That's for sure." The assistant said quickly.

Here, Lu Youxi and the village chief left Jiayuexing's company.

The village chief looked down at the rice in Lu Youxi's hand and asked in embarrassment: "Youxi, if you just take the rice back, won't that directly offend Mr. Cheng? We won't be able to cooperate with Jiayuexing in the future."

"From the beginning, they made us wait for such a long time. Then, from Mr. Cheng's attitude in the later talks, the conditions they offered showed that they had no intention of cooperating with us. They relied on the fact that Jiayuexing was powerful and we were a small company that had just started, and they were trying to squeeze our flesh and blood."

"Such a big company is actually sucking the blood of a small company like us that hasn't even started yet. It shows that Jiayuexing's future development is also limited." Lu Youxi said.

"As for whether there will be cooperation in the future, we have to wait and see how Jiayuexing develops in the future. With their arrogant attitude and attitude of not even sparing their partners, I'm afraid they will go downhill soon."

Lu Youxi is very sure about this.

Because Jiayuexing is really not doing well in later generations.

After about five or six years, supermarkets across the country began to shrink.

As more and more large supermarkets open, competition among supermarkets becomes increasingly fierce.

Jiayuexing gradually lost its advantage.

Later, e-commerce began to develop, online shopping emerged, and then online shopping became more and more convenient and more and more favorable.

Unless there is something urgently needed, the development of physical supermarkets has become more difficult.

Many supermarkets are far-sighted and have started developing online delivery businesses early on, offering various discounts, listing new products from popular online stores, and so on.

But as some supermarkets are doing better and better, some are unable to continue operating.

Jiayuexing was one of them, and later, Jiayuexing closed its last store.

But now, Jiayuexing is still on the rise, so Lu Youxi chose to discuss cooperation with Jiayuexing.

When Jiayuexing is no longer viable in the future, other supermarkets will still sell them and Xingmi.

But I didn't expect Mr. Cheng to have such an attitude.

In his previous life, Lu Youxi was not involved in the retail industry, so he didn't understand it.

And now she somewhat understood why Jiayuexing declined so quickly.

It has something to do with their arrogance.

"As for future cooperation." Lu Youxi smiled and was not worried. "As long as our Hexing rice is good enough, Jiayuexing will beg us to cooperate with us. What's the big deal if we offend him now?"

"In the business world, the only thing that is indestructible is profit."

The village chief couldn't help but sigh, Lu Youxi had only been in business for a short time, but he had already seen so much.

He still has a lot to learn.

Lu Youxi went back and waited for the reply from Zhenxin Supermarket with peace of mind.

She felt that the problem with Zhenxin Supermarket was not serious and that there was a 90% chance that it would agree.

However, before Zhenxin Supermarket responded, Shi Yusheng called first.

"Sister-in-law!" As soon as Lu Youxi picked up the phone, she heard Shi Yusheng's kind and enthusiastic voice.

The corner of Lu Youxi's mouth twitched, and he called out, "Xiao Shi."

Shi Yusheng: "..."

Although he called her sister-in-law, Lu Youxi was younger than him, so it felt weird to call him Xiaoshi.

But after all, she was his sister-in-law, so Shi Yusheng acknowledged her and said, "Sister-in-law, how is your Hexing rice production? Our hotel would like to have long-term cooperation with you, and you will be our direct rice supplier in the future."

"Your previous contract is about to expire?" Lu Youxi asked.

"Yes, it expires next month." Shi Yusheng said, "The other party has been contacting us recently, wanting to renew the contract with us. But last time our chef tasted your rice and said it was much better than the one we are working with now."

"Our hotel is relatively expensive, and the price of rice is also expensive, so we have to give our guests something that is worth the money," said Shi Yusheng.

"Which company did you cooperate with before?" Lu Youxi asked.

"Shilixiang is the most expensive kind sold in supermarkets." Shi Yusheng did not hide it.

Lu Youxi knew that the ingredients from Dongsheng were indeed good.

"I've also tried Shilixiang and compared it with Hexing rice. It can be said that they are equally good. You won't suffer a loss by using our Hexing rice, but if you want to get value for money, then it doesn't matter which of our two rices you use." Lu Youxi said.
