Chapter 91 This kid is so nice
It's too late to say anything now.
Shopkeeper Yu had no choice but to grit his teeth, put away the exclusive supply contract, and went to the Yin family with the ordinary supply contract.
There was no way he would lose this deal and there was no way he would make Dong Fu Ju the restaurant that specialized in oyster sauce dishes.
Shopkeeper Yu arrived at the Yin family feeling very uncomfortable, only to discover something that made him even more uncomfortable.
Oyster sauce price has increased!!
"Manager Yu, let's talk business. Fengweilou offers 200 wen per pound of oyster sauce, while Dongfuju offers 300 wen per pound. If we supply you with large quantities at the original price, wouldn't we suffer a huge loss? In this case, we might as well stock up and sell all of them to Dongfuju for 300 wen, don't you think?"
Yin Huaixi gave the contract that she had just signed with Manager Liu to Manager Yu for him to take a look at. After confirming that the price she mentioned was real, she took it back.
"Manager Yu, you should know a little about our Yin family. When we first came here, our foundation was not stable. We had no house and everything cost money. The purpose of doing business is to make money, so naturally we would rather sell at a high price than at a low price."
The shopkeeper certainly understood this principle, but it was because he understood it that he felt particularly uncomfortable.
It's all that fat guy's fault for raising the price. I don't know what he was thinking, he actually raised the price by a hundred cents!
It's simply sick!
"Madam Yin, I understand what you are saying. There is nothing wrong with raising the price. However, we at Fengweilou buy a large quantity. I wonder if you can give us a slightly lower price?"
Yin Huaixi thought about it, nodded and agreed, "It can be cheaper. One kilogram will cost you 280 coins from Fengweilou."
Even though it's only twenty cents cheaper per catty, 300 catties a month is six taels cheaper, so Yin Huaixi is really generous.
Shopkeeper Yu signed the contract without much thought, then reluctantly left with today's oyster sauce.
Didn't Jiang Wan give Fatty Liu a jar? It smells pretty good, why don't you have one?
Is it because I bargained?
If Jiang Wan knew what he was thinking, she would definitely say that he was being overly suspicious.
It's not that she didn't want to send it, it's just that she only had a few jars of steamed rice at home. If she wanted to eat it, she had to wash it again and steam it again.
Who made Shopkeeper Yu leave early and come back late?
Jiang Wan had no mood to cook at the moment. She was showing the design drawings of the stove and toilet to her mother.
She felt sorry for the bricks when she built the toilet before, but now her heart was filled with energy.
Be sure to cover it well and securely!
Bricks are not the problem.
The orders from Dongfuju and Fengweilou could earn the family nearly one hundred taels of silver a month. If it weren't for the fact that it was not too conspicuous, they could have built a courtyard with blue bricks.
"I think these are well designed. You can show them to Hu Tou's father and the others. Once the bricks arrive, hire a few more people to quickly build the stove room."
Yin Huaixi was so stimulated by the two supply contracts today that she had a rare sense of professionalism and couldn't even remember the herbs for a moment.
"By the way, we need to increase the amount of oyster sauce. You need to arrange for someone to open the oysters early. Did you talk to Xiao Man's wife last time? Is there anyone?"
Jiang Wan nodded.
"Mother Xiaoman recommended me a woman who lived not far from her home. I heard that her son and daughter-in-law passed away early, and it was difficult for her to lead a life with her grandson alone."
"But one person is not enough. After we finish building the new oven, we will need several hundred kilograms of oyster meat every day. We still need to find more people."
As for who to find to do these jobs, Jiang Wan didn't know the villagers very well. She decided to ask the old village chief after Qingzhuan arrived and made arrangements.
The old village chief is fair and strict, and he knows the villagers very well. Asking him can help you find out more quickly and accurately which people in the village really need jobs.
"You can handle these by yourself. I won't take care of them. If you need any help, come to me."
"Okay, then I'll go show the blueprint to Hu Tou Dad and the others first."
Jiang Wan ran out in a flash.
With her patient explanation, Hutou's father and several uncles who were bricklaying the walls all understood what the stove room she wanted looked like.
The stove is easy to understand, but they really don’t understand the toilet.
It’s a strange design. Not only does the squat toilet have to be sloped, but the entire toilet floor has to be paved with bricks.
Such waste is really puzzling.
Jiang Wan didn't ask them to agree, just build it according to the drawings.
Half an hour later, a villager showed the brick deliveryman the way to Jiang Wan's home. Now the first boatload of bricks had arrived at the ferry, and they had to find someone to move them over.
Without Jiang Wan's request, Hutoudie and his men pushed the carts to move the bricks.
These uncles worked very hard, so Jiang Wan decided to give them some compensation for their hard work in moving bricks in the evening.
Two thousand bricks were divided into four boats and transported much faster with wheelbarrows than carrying them slowly by oneself.
Everything was arranged in an hour and a half.
Jiang Wan went to her uncle's house and called her mother back to keep an eye on things, while she went to the old village chief's house.
"Grandpa Village Chief, which families in our village are honest and have difficult conditions?"
"this……"
The old village chief felt that there were many families in need in the village.
Every household has a new baby, but they only have so little money every month. If there were not so many free seafood to eat at the beach, I don't know how many people would have starved to death.
"There are many people in need in our village, and there are also many honest people. What do you want them to do?"
"It's not that difficult. Just ask them to go to the seashore to pry open oysters and sell the oyster meat to me. As long as the oyster meat is fresh, it's two cents a pound."
As soon as Jiang Wan finished speaking, the old village chief was stunned. The old lady who was eavesdropping outside the house also widened her eyes instantly.
She can even charge two cents a pound!!
"Jiang girl, don't be ridiculous. Two cents a pound?! A strong man can give you a hundred pounds of oyster meat in one day. Two hundred cents a day, are you willing to take it?"
Jiang Wan thought about it carefully. If the oyster sauce workshop becomes bigger in the future, it would not be impossible for one family to produce 100 kilograms. But now, she couldn't eat that much in one go.
"I will accept at most 30 kilograms of oyster meat from each household, and I only need 25 households. I have already reserved Xiaoman and Yinzhu's households, as well as Aunt Yang's household. As for the remaining 22 households, I'll need you, the village chief, to help me choose."
The village chief is very nice, and the villagers are very united. But with so many people, there will always be good and bad people. There are also those who are troublesome and like to argue. She doesn't want to do business with such people. It's better for the village chief to choose first, and she will just pick the ready-made ones.
"What do you want to do with all that oyster meat? Sell it to Fengweilou?"
"Yes, I'm doing business with Fengweilou and Dongfuju for a kind of seasoning, and the main ingredient of this seasoning is oyster meat. The demand from these two restaurants has been quite large recently, and I have to supply them as soon as my stove house is built, so Grandpa Village Chief, I'll have to trouble you to help me decide in the next two or three days."
"Okay, okay! I will definitely help you pick the person out."
The old village chief readily agreed, and when he saw Jiang Wan leave, he immediately started to think about every household in the village.
Even a woman can make thirty kilograms of oyster meat a day. Isn't it easy to earn sixty cents a day?
The little girl is taking care of the people in the village, so he must choose carefully.

(The second update will be at 9 o'clock~ By the way, the price of oyster meat has increased by one cent. Don't think the heroine is a saint. The price of oyster sauce has increased by 100 cents per pound now. She didn't lose anything by increasing the price. Our main goal is to make the whole village or even the whole island rich. It doesn't fit the plot for one person to make money alone.)
