"Manager Yu said that the seafood provided by Fengjia Village that we need will be purchased by Hejia Restaurant at the same price as other suppliers."
“Miss Ruan, to be honest, our suppliers have been cooperating with He Family Restaurant for many years. In principle, we don’t accept seafood from the village.”
"Price cannot be guaranteed, nor can quantity."
Xiao Kai explained, "This wasn't something Manager Yu asked me to tell you. I said it myself, wanting to show you the sincerity of Manager Yu and the He Family Restaurant."
"According to Manager Yu, if we accept seafood from Fengjia Village, we might bear some risks. If the supply is not timely, we will need to temporarily source other goods..."
“It takes a lot of thought. But Manager Yu said that the girl and her family’s kindness also moved him.”
"I'm not afraid of the trouble..." Xiao Kai said, "I'll go back and tell the shopkeeper about how you got up early this morning and were busy with the villagers..."
"Manager Yu said he had guessed it. Even though the villagers don't earn much, the girl and her family work tirelessly and still think more about everyone."
"Manager Yu said that life on the island is difficult. If a village has someone who thinks of everyone and takes the lead, the South Island will not remain so poor."
"The shopkeeper also said that it is human nature to think of oneself first. But the girl and her family are not like that, which is why they are even more precious."
"Manager Yu said that he and our He Family Restaurant are willing to be the ladder for the young lady and her family, helping her to rise to the top!"
Xiao Kai smiled sheepishly, "Of course, the shopkeeper also said that with the young lady's talent, she has treated the villagers so well, and she won't forget us either."
"Therefore, our He Family Restaurant must strike first and place our bets!"
After Xiao Kai said so much, the Ruan family could feel how much Manager Yu valued them, especially Ruan Meng, but they never expected it to be to this extent.
Although the cooperation sought by Manager Yu would not result in a loss for the He Family Restaurant, and was a win-win situation...
But as Xiao Kai just explained, Manager Yu and the He Family Restaurant also had many trivial matters to deal with.
Recalling the gaze the village woman had given her earlier, Ruan Meng became even more cautious, even though she didn't understand her intentions.
Instead of giving a hasty reply, he indicated that he needed to discuss it with his older brother and sister-in-law.
Ruan Meng looked at her elder brother and heard him say, "Little sister sent out the dishes to deepen our cooperation, right?"
Ruan Meng nodded.
Ruan Qian asked gently, "Now, what is it that makes you hesitate?"
Before Ruan Meng could answer, he asked again, "When we were eating, you pointed to the side. Was someone watching us?"
Ruan Meng was slightly surprised; she hadn't expected her elder brother to be so observant.
After all, settling down on an unfamiliar island, how could Ruan Qian not be careful for the safety of his wife, younger brother and sister?
The second and third brothers were taken aback. "When?"
"Was it when I asked my sister?"
"What happened?"
......
Ruan Meng told her family about what she had seen the woman observe on two separate occasions.
Even if it's an overreaction, the intention is to alert family members.
"So," the older brother asked, "did your sister change her mind about the collaboration?"
Ruan Meng nodded, her expression serious.
"Originally, I wanted to encourage the villagers to dig for more seafood and konjac, just like I did with the seafood hot pot..."
"But today, this woman's unusual behavior gave me a wake-up call..."
"She should be a villager. Whatever her purpose, at least for now, she is not in danger."
"But from now on, it's best to have someone stay at home, whether it's food or medicine, someone must be there to watch over it."
"We can't ruin our reputation before we've even made any money!"
The older brother and sister-in-law looked serious and all agreed.
Ruan Meng also analyzed:
"The village chief is a good person and has a certain level of prestige, but if conflicts arise with neighboring villages..."
