In order to sell melons, Cheng Yue decided to make only 200 set meals at noon and only sell set meals, not a la carte.
When they arrived at the shop, Cheng Yue began to tell Cheng Wu to do something. As a result, Cheng Wu ran outside and brought in the yamen runners who were patrolling the dock to help.
A few months have passed since Ji Mingxuan took office in Taoyuan County, and very little has happened in Taoyuan County, so there is no problem in bringing two people in to help.
The tavern opens on time at noon.
Dahua went out and stood there with a sign.
Just like before, today's set menu was written on it, but there were more servings and an extra free food, a piece of watermelon.
"Brother, have you learned it? Just cut it like this."
The meal was ready, and Cheng Yue was cutting watermelon.
"Yes, I will, sister!"
Cheng Wenxue is still very fast.
"Big brother, watch in the kitchen. Dahua and the other two brothers, watch outside! Second brother and I will go negotiate the price of the melon. By the way, big brother, you have to remember that each meal only comes with one piece of melon."
Cheng Yue gave a few instructions and then took Cheng Wu to the lounge next door.
"Brother, I went to the melon field to check it out before I came here. I asked Uncle Li and his son, as well as Da Shuan and Xiao Shuan, about the situation. Right now, there are dozens of acres of ripe melons in our field, and we estimate there will be thousands or even tens of thousands. I don't know whether to sell them by the pound or by the piece."
Cheng Yue said as soon as she entered the house.
"I sent someone to the capital last night to inform Boss He. He should be arriving soon. We'll hear his opinion later. However, I think selling by the pound is more cost-effective. We can make it affordable for most people."
Cheng Wu said.
"Second brother, are you planning to sell the watermelons to Boss He, and then have Boss He promote them everywhere?"
Cheng Yue thought for a moment and asked.
"Boss He has a lot of experience traveling all over the country. Whether it's Jiangnan or Beijing, he has connections. Selling to him is more cost-effective for us."
Cheng Wu said.
"That's fine. Initially, we'll give him sixty acres of watermelons. He can arrange for the transportation, and we can pick them for him. But, second brother, how is your relationship with Boss He?"
Cheng Yue remembered that Cheng Shun had his birthday two days ago, and there seemed to be no one named He from the provincial capital, which meant that his relationship with Cheng Wu was not that good.
"We met by chance, and I saved him. But I usually stay in the county town and never go to the provincial capital. The few times I went there, he treated me very well. Having said that, when we discuss the price later, you have the final say, and I'll listen to you."
Cheng Wu still knows how to distinguish between the important and the unimportant. No matter what, family is always more important in front of family and outsiders.
"That's all you need to say! We can leave the rest of Taoyuan County to Boss He, but we'll handle the business in Taoyuan County ourselves. After these watermelons are released today, there will undoubtedly be people asking about them. My idea is that if you buy them individually, you can buy them in our tavern. If you need more, you can go directly to the village to buy them. What do you think?"
Cheng Yue had an idea in his mind, and then asked again.
"Sure. I'll bring Jinxing and Mingzhu over to help at mealtime every day. After dinner, Dahua can watch over you and Big Brother so you can rest! There are people on duty at the dock every day, so we don't have to worry about Dahua being bullied."
Cheng Wu nodded, thought for a moment, and said.
"Okay, that's settled then. We'll negotiate the price when Boss He arrives!"
