Chapter 90 Don’t Talk Business with Women
"Oh no! Oh no!"
As soon as Lin Ji opened the door in the morning, Tang Xuyang rushed in from outside, stood in front of Lin Xi, and kept repeating this sentence.
"Oh, I was almost scared to death by you so early in the morning. It's not like the sky is falling. Why are you shouting so loudly?" Dai Jin'er covered her chest with her hands, a look of resentment on her face.
Lin Xi also felt that Tang Xuyang was exaggerating this time, so she asked with a smile, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Tang Xuyang was furious. "Do you know that bacon is selling like hot cakes in the county? It's been sold for 200 coins per pound!"
"So valuable?" Lin Xi was very surprised.
Seeing Lin Xi's calm reaction, Tang Xuyang quickly said, "Do you know what this means? It means that someone sold your things to the county town and made a lot of money."
How could Lin Xi not understand such a simple truth?
"It's normal for others to buy and sell things. There's nothing to be surprised about." Lin Xi said calmly.
"Aren't you angry at all?" Tang Xuyang asked.
Lin Xi thought for a moment, "Rather than being angry, I'm actually quite surprised. I didn't expect that bacon would have such a big market in the county. We can consider expanding the bacon business to the county."
Tang Xuyang slapped his thigh and said, "That's right!"
He said that with Lin Xi's intelligence, it was impossible for him not to understand this principle.
"Whenever you come to see the store, I'll ask someone to find it for you." Tang Xuyang said.
“No need.”
Lin Xi shook her head to refuse. Her and Xiao Yongyan's identities were sensitive, and the county town was Hang Qi's territory. If they knew that they opened a store in the county town, they would probably find some reason to punish them.
She is not stupid, she won't just let herself be dealt with.
"Not opening a store?" Tang Xuyang couldn't understand, "Then how are you going to sell your bacon in the county?"
Lin Xi couldn't help but roll her eyes. Tang Xuyang really had no talent for business. "How did our bacon end up in the county?"
"Of course they are sold by others." Tang Xuyang paused, "Are you planning to stop opening a store and sell it yourself?"
Lin Xi: “…”
Tang Xuyang has no talent for business, so don't bother with him.
"I'm going to find an agent." Lin Xi was too lazy to explain to Tang Xuyang, "I'd like to trouble you to find out where the bacon is sold from."
This little thing is very simple for Tang Xuyang.
Within a day, Lin Xi received information that the person who sold the bacon to the restaurant in the county town was Cao Daniu from Shanyue Restaurant.
He was an old acquaintance of a restaurant owner in the county town. After buying bacon from Linxi that day, he felt that he had bought too much in a hurry, so he went to his old friend with the mentality of giving it a try.
Unexpectedly, after the other party tasted the bacon, he immediately decided to buy all of it.
With the information provided by Tang Xuyang, Lin Xi found Cao Daniu.
His restaurant is not in a good location and sells cheap items. It is obvious that bacon is not a suitable choice for him.
Maybe I was influenced by the atmosphere before, so I bought a lot.
"Boss Cao." Lin Xi stood at the door and looked inside the dark door.
Although it was daytime, the restaurant was not facing the sun, so it always looked dark.
Soon, a pot-bellied man walked out. He stared at Lin Xi for a while before recognizing him. "It's Boss Lin. Are you here to see me?"
Lin Xi nodded and explained his purpose, "I heard that Boss Cao resold the bacon I bought from him to a boss in the county town."
In a blink of an eye, Lin Xi saw that Cao Daniu's smile froze on his face.
Lin Xi knew that the other party must have mistakenly thought that he was here to accuse her, so he quickly explained, "I'm not going to pursue the matter of your resale. I just want to ask if you are interested in being the county agent for my bacon."
Cao Daniu went from being on guard at the beginning to being confused later. What is a county agent?
Seeing the other party's puzzled expression, Lin Xi immediately realized that there should be no such word here, so she directly used modern words.
"What I mean is, since you have the channels to sell bacon to the county town, you might as well be our agent in Lianggu County. Anyone who needs to buy bacon will have to come to you, even if they come to me directly." Lin Xi said.
Cao Daniu had never heard of such a strange system before, but seeing that Lin Xi's attitude was quite good, he paused and said, "Boss Lin, is your husband at home?"
Lin Xi was stunned. Why did she suddenly bring up this matter? She wanted to do business. What did it have to do with Xiao Yongyan?
"I don't mean anything else. I just want to ask, does your man know about what you are talking about?" Cao Daniu asked tentatively.
Whether Xiao Yongyan knew or not, Lin Xi didn't expect that this was the first thing Cao Daniu asked.
Xiao Yongyan never asked about her business affairs, as for whether he knew about it or not——
"Of course I don't know." Lin Xi said.
"Then I think you should discuss it with him first." Cao Daniu said.
Lin Xi was even more confused. This Cao Daniu had been mentioning Xiao Yongyan since just now. What did what happened between them have to do with Xiao Yongyan?
"Boss Cao, don't you think I can't make the decision on Lin's business alone?" Lin Xi looked at Cao Daniu doubtfully.
However, Cao Daniu did not refute, but said as a matter of course, "This store belongs to you and your wife. If your husband doesn't know, and you make such a promise alone, I'm worried that there will be changes in the future."
Lin Xi: “…”
She finally understood that it was the evil idea of male superiority and female inferiority that was at work.
"Don't worry, I can make all the decisions regarding Lin Ji's affairs. I don't need my husband's consent." Lin Xi spoke more confidently.
"This..." Cao Daniu hesitated, "Let's talk about it later."
Lin Xi was furious. She realized that Cao Daniu had never trusted her from the beginning, and she still wanted to prove something.
There is no need to waste your breath when facing someone who is determined not to believe in you.
"Since Boss Cao has made up his mind, I naturally won't force him. I will look for other companies for the bacon agency." After Lin Xi finished speaking, he turned and left.
Cao Daniu was left standing alone in the store, confused. He didn't say anything, but why did Lin Xi not look very happy?
Never mind, women are trouble.
How could a woman be in charge of such a big store like Lin’s? However, the suggestion Lin Xi just made is quite good. I can talk to Lin Xi’s husband about it another day.
On this side, Lin Xi came out of Cao Daniu's shop and took a deep breath.
This Cao Daniu has such a pedantic mindset. Why would she want to cooperate with such a person?
When I bought things in the store, I didn’t know what I was thinking.
Forget it. I can’t bother with this kind of straight male cancer. I should find someone more suitable to be the agent.
Lin Xi walked slowly on the street and unknowingly came to the door of Jinxiu Building. Seeing the endless stream of customers, Lin Xi suddenly felt that Hong Sheng was actually a good choice.
