After making arrangements with the people of Chenjia Village, Lin Jinyue went to several other villages to collect snails, octopuses, and crabs.
Relying solely on Chen Pang as a supplier is definitely not enough to supply the needs of one shop.
Actually, Lin Jinyue wanted the villagers to go fishing.
However, they weren't familiar with the area, and with so much land to cultivate, they had no choice but to give up.
I'd better take the time to buy it.
Lin Jinyue never expected that after she contributed the composting recipe, her business would go much more smoothly.
Once they heard that she was Lin Jinyue from Yunhe Village, the villagers became much more agreeable.
Some villages even said that snails weren't worth much money, and they wanted to give them away for free, basket after basket.
Lin Jinyue was simply overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of this group.
Everything went smoothly.
The next day, Old Tan wanted to make Lin Jinyue write large characters for half an hour again.
But she ran away in a flash.
This time, she's going to Shawan County to find a shop with her father.
Lin Jinyue had already come up with a marketing strategy last night: from now on, stir-fried snails will be called Yunhe Snails, and "Yunhe" will be added before everything you buy.
Their brand logo will also be printed on future packaging paper.
Once the brand becomes famous, they will only recognize Yunhe brand products from now on, and they will not be afraid of being counterfeited.
Moreover, once the brand becomes well-known, when new products are released, people's first reaction will be, "This is a good brand, it must be good," and they will buy it without hesitation.
The more Lin Jinyue thought about it, the more she realized that it made sense.
So he painted the plaque and seal overnight and had Wang the carpenter make them.
Carpenter Wang finished making the plaque early this morning; it's rather simple, but it has the words "Yunhe Ji" written by Old Tan on it.
Mr. Tan's calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, possessing a certain integrity.
When Lin Jinyue went to Shawan County, she hung the plaque on her simple stall.
After doing all that, she and her father went to look for a suitable shop.
The reputation of snails has already spread, just look at the long queues that have formed so early in the morning, so they're not so picky about the location of the shop anymore.
Lin Jinyue plans to add more fancy iced drinks in the future, as well as takoyaki and crab roe powder.
It mainly sells snacks that can be easily picked up and taken away, so it doesn't need to be a large store.
Once the requirements aren't so high, finding a shop becomes much easier.
Nevertheless, Lin Jinyue still wanted to rent a shop nearby, which would be much more convenient.
And she actually found it.
Not far from that area of stalls, at the entrance of Ruian Alley, there are several shops.
The location isn't spacious; the kitchen is at the back, and there's no yard. However, the kitchen itself is quite spacious, enough for five or six people to work in. Inside the dining area, there's a counter, indicating that there are eight small tables.
It's only about 20 square meters, about the size of a room.
If business is booming, there won't be enough people to keep up with the queue.
However, there is one advantage: the boss said that we can set up a few tables at the entrance.
It was perfect timing; the shop she liked had a large open space to the left, where she could stir-fry snails, and the customers queuing outside wouldn't affect the people eating inside.
The rent is cheap, only three taels of silver a month.
Lin Jinyue finally felt at ease after signing the contract.
Lin Jinyue decided to keep the snail stall open for another ten days and put up a sign on a wooden board: "We will be moving to Ruian Alley in ten days, and there will be new products. Please stay tuned."
After the notice was posted, people buying snails would also ask Liu and his family what new tricks they had up their sleeves.
Liu was also bewildered: "Er Ya didn't tell us."
Those people are itching to get out of their minds.
Surprisingly, a few people even managed to find Yunhe Village.
Lin Jinyue was stunned to see so many people standing at her door.
"You said you came here to buy something? What are you buying?"
The person who came over said, "I'll buy your new product."
Lin Jinyue:......
The takoyaki mold isn't finished yet!
Lin Jinyue still led them into the village and to her own courtyard.
Thinking about how to fool them, or maybe I should get some iced drinks?
She hasn't even calculated the price yet!
As luck would have it, Li the blacksmith brought the mold to Lin Jinyue at that moment. "Yuanyue, is this the mold you're looking for?"
I don't know how Li the blacksmith did it, but that row of semi-circular molds was perfectly round and thick, without any bumps or pits.
Luckily, she brought Li the blacksmith with her when she fled the famine, otherwise she really wouldn't know what to do.
Li the blacksmith's skills are truly exceptional.
When Li the blacksmith saw people coming from the village, he asked, "Who is this?"
Lin Jinyue introduced: "Our customers sell snails in Shawan County."
Even the blacksmith Li was astonished: "Our snails are so famous, yet people still came all this way?!"
Those people also said, "Isn't that right? I love food. Even the best snails get boring after a while. I heard there was a new way to cook them, so I rushed over here."
Lin Jinyue had never seen anyone love food so much.
I can't believe I actually made the trip myself.
Lin Jinyue felt that it was a bit disloyal of her to try and fool them with takoyaki.
She smiled and said, "That's great. You guys can try out the new dishes for me. It's not easy for you to come all this way. I'll also make you a limited-edition dish, but don't tell anyone else about it."
The man was wearing a brocade robe and looked quite wealthy.
He placed a silver ingot directly on the table, saying, "That's great, we'll have to make a real feast!"
This is a large silver ingot.
It's worth ten taels of silver.
Lin Jinyue scratched her head, realizing she couldn't handle the situation herself, and said to them, "Wait a minute, I'll call my father back."
