Lu Baiwei was convinced.

No wonder the village party secretary is so fat and has a ruddy face, it turns out he is a foodie.

A mouthful of braised duck conquered him.

This was something Lu Baiwei didn't expect.

"Secretary Lu, please try this five-spice rabbit. We have a secret recipe for making this rabbit. See if you like the taste."

Taking into account that people in Beijing cannot eat spicy food, Lu Baiwei asked Su Changyao to serve the spiced rabbit.

After tasting the rabbit meat, the village party secretary naturally praised it highly and said the trip was worthwhile.

Lu Baiwei actually knew that even if she continued to fight with the garment factory, they would not be able to pay the 90,000 yuan compensation.

After all, it was a clothing factory that was on the verge of bankruptcy.

She has now used the compensation money to obtain the operating rights of the garment factory without spending a penny. Lu Baiwei knows that both Deputy Director Wang and his people, as well as the village cadres, are unwilling to accept this.

So she had a backup plan. She invited them to have dinner at Shiweiji after signing the contract.

After hearing from the village secretary that Xiahe Village also raises ducks, Lu Baiwei asked him, "Secretary Lu, are there many families raising ducks in Xiahe Village?"

Fortunately, the market economy has been liberalized, otherwise it would be difficult for Secretary Lu to respond to this.

Because the previous regulations allowed each family to raise two ducks and chickens. Even if the village cadres turned a blind eye, each family could only raise a maximum of four.

Now that private individuals are allowed to do business, naturally more people are raising ducks.

They rush into the river to eat small fish and shrimps, and the eggs they lay can be sold for money, right?

"Our village is close to a river and there is a large reservoir. Every family raises ducks for eggs."

"Raising ducks doesn't cost a lot of food. They eat grass and insects. It's not a big deal to drive them to the river to eat small fish and shrimps."

The taste and quality of free-range ducks are definitely better than those raised in farms using feed.

Lu Baiwei made a suggestion to Secretary Lu: "Then you can sell the ducks you raise to us at Shiweiji."

"This way, every household in your village will have an extra source of income, right?"

Secretary Lu's eyes lit up.

I was just feeling sulky about selling the clothing factory.

When I heard this, I felt that this girl was capable.

"We'll take as many as we can raise?"

"Yes, we will collect all the ducks raised in your village."

Lu Baiwei suggested to Secretary Lu: "Xiahe Village is close to such a big river, and there are also large and small reservoirs nearby. It is very suitable for raising ducks. In fact, you can set up a duck farm."

It is totally feasible to set up a duck farm!

Secretary Lu didn't expect that by signing the contract, he also found a way to make money for the village.

He asked Lu Baiwei: "My daughter, we are setting up a duck farm. Will you buy all the ducks we raise?"

"Can you eat this?"

"We can eat it. We are going to open a branch store in Wangfujing soon. We will open many more stores in the future. The demand for chickens and ducks is huge."

"Secretary Lu, if you are worried, you can sign a contract with us."

"Also, we at Food Taste Records can take in the pigs raised in your village."

There are many fish ponds in Xiahe Village, and fish have always been raised there.

Add to that raising pigs and ducks, and with these two items done, why would the village have to worry about income?

Originally, running a clothing factory was not something their village was good at, and they lost a lot of money.

After the garment factory was sold, Secretary Lu was feeling distressed, but when he heard that there was some income coming in, his waist and legs no longer hurt and he became energized.

"My girl, you are such a good person."

Secretary Lu is now completely on Lu Baiwei's side: "My son-in-law is a piece of shit, why would he cheat on such a good girl like you?"

"Just wait, if he comes back this time, I will break his legs."

"Your sister is worried all day long..."

The sister that the village party secretary was talking about is Director Zhou’s wife.

Not to mention Lu Baiwei, Gu Min and Su Changyao, who came to serve the dishes, were trying to hold back their laughter.

Su Changyao couldn't help but admire Lu Baiwei.

When he and Tang Jinghai were watching the shop in Wangfujing, they found Zhang Yulan contacting Manager Sun of the sugar factory. He reminded Tang Jinghai to let Lu Baiwei be alert. At that time, he was thinking, don't fall into the Zhang family's trap.

However, Lu Baiwei made him look at her with new eyes.

Not only did he defuse the conspiracy, but he also turned the tables on the garment factory and took over the management rights of the garment factory without spending a penny.

This is a forced sale.

The garment factory is located on someone else's land in Xiahe Village. They must be feeling unconvinced that they had to mortgage the factory.

As it turned out, his boss Lu Baiwei had a backup plan. She persuaded Secretary Lu to raise ducks and pigs and agreed to sign a contract between Shiweiji and Xiahe Village. This not only solved the problem of Shiweiji's food source, but also guaranteed the quality of the food.

The ducks and pigs raised in the village are definitely better than the ingredients they currently buy from the slaughterhouse.

It can be said that this achieves three goals at once.

What's even more outrageous is that Secretary Lu and his colleagues were forced to transfer the garment factory. They were originally the aggrieved party, but after a meal, they started calling Boss Lu their daughter and even found her a sister.

Secretary Lu is also a smart guy!

Director Zhou’s wife is Lu Baiwei’s sister, so it’s not a good idea to pursue the previous confrontation and the things Director Zhou did too much, right?

Quite interesting.

Su Changyao was watching with great interest the negotiations between Lu Baiwei, Deputy Factory Director Wang, and Secretary Lu when the door of Shiweiji opened and two unexpected people came in: Minister Lu Yuanze and his wife Zhang Yulan.

There were tear marks on Zhang Yulan's face, obviously she had been crying.

As if she felt it was embarrassing to come to Lu Baiwei to apologize, after entering Shiweiji, facing the stares of Su Changyao, Gu Min and others, Zhang Yulan turned her head away and looked at Kyoto University opposite Shiweiji.

"Minister Lu, what are you doing?"

It was long past dinner time and there were only a few people buying braised dishes at the door.

The reason why Lu Yuanze chose to come at this time was to take advantage of the low customer flow.

Today, Lu Baiwei's cousin Tang Yuanhuai is going on a blind date. Tang Yuanhuai is the son of Tang Jingchuan, her cousin who is serving in the army, so Zhao Lan is not in the store.

When Song He saw Zhang Yulan, she shuddered subconsciously.

Minister Lu spoke gently, stated his purpose, and said that he knew He Ting. Song He then said she would go to the Shiweiji restaurant next door to call for help.

Since he was here to apologize, he had to be sincere. Lu Yuanze said that was not necessary and opened the door of Shiweiji with his wife Zhang Yulan.

Unexpectedly, what he saw was Lu Baiwei toasting with others. Lu Yuanze was stunned. Little classmate Lu looked quiet and gentle, but he had such a generous side.

The atmosphere was lively. Lu Baiwei drank some wine, and the feeling of being slightly drunk made her cheeks flush.

Lu Baiwei stood up and Lu Yuanze looked apologetic.

"Student Lu, we came at an inopportune time. We didn't know you were entertaining guests."

Seeing that Zhang Yulan no longer had the arrogance she had when she came to cause trouble for her before, Lu Baiwei roughly guessed why Lu Yuanze came to her for trouble.

She greeted Lu Yuanze with a smile: "Minister Lu, we are signing a contract with the garment factory today."

Don't you have time to receive him?

Lu Yuanze didn't know what was going on, and he suddenly felt a sense of loss.

"I heard that the stewed food at Shiweiji is delicious. Let's go and try it."
