Chapter 9 In the partner
space, Nan Jingyi and Xiaopi were playing intimately.
Summer in the south is extremely hot, with a high temperature of 38 degrees these days.
In the early 1990s, every household did not have air conditioning.
It's so hot! Nan Jingyi planned to go to the space to enjoy the coolness tonight. Anyway, her mother would not enter her room at night.
As usual, she checked the vegetable garden and orchard before going to bed. There were loads of fresh vegetables, which gave her a special sense of accomplishment.
She picked the vegetables to be prepared for tomorrow morning and packed them one by one.
Coming to the orchard, although there are not many varieties of fruits now, the quality is really good. She picked the fruits she needed for tomorrow one by one and put them into the basket.
Cherries are more expensive, so customers who buy cherries are discerning people.
She carefully packed the cherries in small transparent fruit boxes and tied them with red strings. She had to ensure that the packaging was exquisite and the portions were small, so that customers would be interested in buying.
She plans to open a boutique fruit shop in the future. There are many fruit vendors in this era, but not many high-quality fruits. Planting more new fruits in the space will definitely open up sales.
For now, don't rush, just take it step by step, she has too much to do!
The newly purchased water tank has been filled with Lingquan water, and 10 large grass carps and three turtles have been selected to be put into the water tank. All preparations have been made to start work tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow is Sunday and she has the day off.
After setting the alarm clock for 6 a.m., she carried Xiaopi to the princess room. "Master, do you see how clean the room is?" Xiaopi asked for credit.
"Clean! Clean! My Xiaopi is the most capable, and I will reward you tomorrow afternoon to go play with me in the outside world."
Xiaopi jumped up and down excitedly, "That's great! Oh yeah!"
"But Xiaopi, after leaving the space , you must remember not to transform, otherwise you will scare others. You can become invisible, can you do it?" Nan Jingyi repeatedly warned.
"Don't worry, Master, it's no problem!" Xiaopi was obedient.
"I have plans tomorrow morning, and we'll go out to play in the afternoon."
"Yeah," Xiaoqi nodded. As long as it can be allowed to play in the human world, anything will do.
Nan Jingyi took a bath in the space and lay on the bed in the space, feeling cool and comfortable! He fell asleep within three minutes of falling down.
Before six o'clock in the morning, she vaguely heard her mother calling her outside. She jumped up with excitement, and the alarm clock rang at the same time.
Nan Jingyi returned to her room, and sure enough, her mother called her at the door.
"Mom, I'll be out right away."
"Jingyi, it's time to get up. It's hot. Go get ready early. I'll make breakfast and bring it to you." Zheng Juan warned her repeatedly.
After washing up, Nan Jingyi went out quickly, rode a three-wheeler, and approached the roadside of the farmer's market. Seeing no one around, she took out the prepared vegetables from the space and entered the market.
She came early today, she had just finished all the preparations, and her mother just arrived.
The market began to be bustling with people, and the mother and daughter became busy.
Nan Jingyi has been thinking about it these days. When she works the day shift, her mother will be too busy alone.
Retailing is not a long-term solution. If you want to make more money in the future, you still have to open up the situation and move towards wholesale.
Nan Jingyi was thinking, "Sister Zheng, Xiaonan, good morning!" It's the glasses uncle, and now both mother and daughter call him Boss Huo.
"Good morning, Boss Huo! What do you want to buy today?" Nan Jingyi smiled, she was an old friend.
Boss Huo said, "Xiao Nan, I came here specifically to discuss cooperation with you today."
Nan Jingyi and Boss Huo came to the farmer's market office with the consent of the administrator, Uncle Zeng.
"Xiaonan, we are old friends. I see that you and Sister Zheng are both honest and trustworthy people." Boss Huo was polite.
Nan Jingyi had already guessed, "Boss Huo, don't be polite. If you have anything to say, just say it!".
"I own a restaurant on Qiyi Road. I plan to buy all the vegetables needed in the store from you, but the quality must be good and fresh. Do you want to cooperate?" Boss Huo came here today for cooperation.
"Qiyi Road? Which hotel?" she asked curiously.
She remembered that in another year, two new large buildings will be opened on Qiyi Road. In a year and a half, Qiyi Road will become the most famous and prosperous road section in Jiang City, with several specialty restaurants.
"Jiangnan Banquet on Qiyi Road."
She knew 'Jiangnan Banquet'. This restaurant would be very famous in the future, and its business would be very good. Later, it would open several chain stores in Jiang City.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Boss Huo. She couldn't tell that this Boss Huo would be worth tens of millions in a few years.
"We can consider it, Boss Huo, let's talk about specific cooperation!" If she is willing to cooperate, the pressure of her mother's daily retail sales will be much less. As for her, she has the space at hand and can completely cope with it.
Boss Huo brought dozens of kilograms of vegetables to the store yesterday, and it was very popular with customers. Customers all asked if the chef had been changed? Because vegetables taste quite good.
It's a pity that the dishes were not prepared enough and the customers were not happy. Later, they used other vegetables and the taste was not the same at all.
Before going out today, his wife repeatedly warned him that he must establish a long-term cooperation with Xiaonan. The price was not a problem at the current price.
The specialty of his Jiangnan Banquet is that it specializes in Hunan cuisine, stir-fried dishes, and home-cooked dishes. If you switch to Xiaonan’s vegetable varieties, your business will definitely be better!
"Boss Huo, that's it. I'm going to raise the retail price in the market a little more. We'll keep the current price unchanged. Vegetables will be priced at 4 yuan per kilogram, grass carp is 1 yuan per kilogram, crucian carp is 6 yuan per kilogram, and soft-shell turtle is 8 yuan. One pound. What do you think?"
She paused and then said, "This is already the lowest price."
Boss Huo thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay! I'll place an order of 5,000 yuan for you now. . "
Shushing, Nan Jingyi already had Boss Huo's order details in hand, and made an appointment to deliver all the dishes to Jiangnan Banquet by 9:30 this morning.
After writing the address and house number to Xiaonan, Boss Huo went to the store to prepare.
Nan Jingyi briefly told her mother about the situation and saw that it was already eight o'clock. She was busy pushing the tricycle to stock up.
When she reached a remote road, she turned around and entered the space together with the tricycle. "Quick, Xiaopi is here to help!"
Qiyi Jiangnan Banquet.
The proprietress Zhu Yin looks like 30 years old, and her decent attire exudes a sense of competence and fierceness.
She was checking the ingredients in the kitchen, shaking her head as she looked. The customers said the vegetables she bought from elsewhere smelled of pesticides yesterday.
The result was that the remaining vegetables were piled aside and had to be thrown away.
The vegetables her husband brought yesterday were in short supply.
She scolded Lao Huo for not knowing how to do things. Why didn't he buy more of such good food? I don’t know how it went when I went out to discuss cooperation today.
She looked up and saw Lao Huo coming in, "Honey, it's done! The goods will arrive at 9:30."
Zhu Yin felt a big stone fall to the ground.
"That's what I'm saying! We have to strike first and seize the opportunity. The two restaurants next door will definitely not be able to beat us in business!"
