Chapter 378: Meeting again, the tribesmen were beaten [asking for monthly tickets]

Nanning.

Yan Shuwen found her cousin's clothing store according to the address given by her cousin.

It was a clothing store with an area of ​​about 20 square meters, selling everything from men's to women's and children's clothing.

It was already past four in the afternoon, and not many people came to the clothing store at this time, so there was no customer in the store.

Yan Shuwen immediately spotted her cousin sitting in the store reading a magazine, and couldn't help but walk over with her luggage and called out, "Cousin."

Cousin Qin looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was her cousin from her aunt's family. She immediately put down the magazine in her hand, stood up and greeted her, saying with a smile: "Cousin, why didn't you call me when you arrived so that I could pick you up."

Yan Shuwen smiled and said, "Cousin, you know what I did before. Are you afraid that someone will trick me into selling me out?"

Cousin Qin laughed and said, "That's true. Who can deceive you?"

Yan Shuwen put her luggage on the stool next to her and looked at the layout of the clothing store while praising, "Cousin, you are really amazing. You have built such a big clothing store by yourself."

"It's OK!"

Cousin Qin smiled and said, "When I called you before, my aunt didn't tell me much, she just said that you resigned. I want to ask what happened? You have a good job, and the salary is not low. Why did you suddenly quit?"

When talking about this topic, Yan Shuwen couldn't help but sigh: "My parents think my job is too dangerous and have been urging me to quit. I really can't persuade them, so I have no choice but to quit and do something else."

Cousin Qin suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. But aunt and uncle are right. Your job is really dangerous. You deal with those criminals all day long. I really admire your courage. If it were me, I would never dare to go with these criminals. If something unexpected happened, my life would be over."

Yan Shuwen said: "It's actually not as dangerous as you might think. Every action we take is carefully planned."

Cousin Qin shook her head and said, "I don't agree with what you said. As the saying goes, there is always a loophole. If we accidentally reveal our true identity, those people will become desperate and do something dangerous. Isn't that dangerous?"

Yan Shuwen smiled and said, "It's definitely a little dangerous. After all, we're dealing with criminals. How can we guarantee absolute safety?"

Cousin Qin said, "Luckily you've resigned now. Let's not talk about this anymore. Are you hungry now? I'll close the shop now, then go back and bring your cousin-in-law and the children. We'll go eat hot pot together tonight."

…

An hour later.

Wuyue Square, Lameizi Hotpot.

Yan Shuwen looked at the incredibly large hot pot restaurant and said in shock: "Cousin, this hot pot restaurant is so big!"

Cousin Qin smiled and said, "This is the largest and most upscale hot pot restaurant in Nanning."

Yan Shuwen walked and looked around. Such a large and luxurious hot pot restaurant really opened her eyes.

Especially the design of the hot pot table is really amazing.

After finding a seat and sitting down, Yan Shuwen looked around again. When she looked at the guests at the table on the left, her eyes met with those of one of the uncles. Then both of them were stunned, and it was obvious that they recognized each other at the first moment.

At this moment, Yan Shuwen's thoughts raced.

The uncle whose eyes met hers, if she remembered correctly, should be the uncle who sat next to her on the train a few years ago.

At that time, Yan Shuwen was on a mission, using herself as bait to get close to the two prisoners, waiting for an opportunity to dig out the criminal gang behind them. She remembered very clearly that the uncle who was sitting with her was sleeping against the car window from beginning to end, and he did not open his eyes until she and the two prisoners left.

But now, through the eye contact just now, Yan Shuwen was very sure that the uncle recognized her.

So how did the uncle recognize her? Wasn't he sleeping on the train?

Could it be that in addition to the encounter on the train, they had met somewhere else? Yan Shuwen thought about it carefully and rejected this idea. Her memory was amazing. If they had met somewhere, she would definitely have an impression of it. The two of them should have only met once, and that was on the train a few years ago.

Yan Shuwen's mind was racing, and Deng Shirong was also quite surprised. He didn't expect that after a chance encounter a few years ago, the two would have the chance to meet again.

Seeing a flash of surprise in the other person's eyes, Deng Shirong knew that the other person recognized him, so he nodded to the other person as a greeting.

Seeing this, Yan Shuwen also nodded at the other party.

Cousin Qin was holding the menu and was about to ask her cousin what she wanted to eat, when she saw this, she asked, "Cousin, did you meet someone you know?"

Yan Shuwen replied: "Not really an acquaintance, but we sat in the same row of seats on the train a few years ago."

Cousin Qin said "oh", then handed over the menu and said, "Cousin, take a look, is there anything you want to eat?"

Yan Shuwen said, "Cousin, you and your husband can just pick out what you like to eat. I eat everything. I'm not picky."

On the other side, Zhang Xiuping asked the same question as Cousin Qin: "Dad, did you meet someone you know?"

Deng Shirong said: "I saw him on the train a few years ago."

Zhang Xiuping nodded, then looked at her sister-in-law and asked with a smile: "Azhu, tomorrow is your birthday. How are you going to celebrate it?"

Deng Yunzhu smiled and said, "When I was young, I loved celebrating my birthday the most because I could eat delicious food on my birthday. Now that I don't have to worry about food and drink, I can celebrate my birthday casually."

Zhang Xiuping said, "Your birthday only comes once a year, and Dad has come all the way from his hometown to Nanning to celebrate with you. How can we be so casual?"

Deng Shirong said: "Tomorrow is Sunday, so let's take Xiao Dong'er and Dongzi out for a picnic!"

Dongzi is also going to preschool this year, so naturally he will not stay in Bobai anymore, but will come to Nanning to study.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Dongzi immediately asked, "Grandpa, what is a picnic?"

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "The meaning of a picnic is to go out and find a place with beautiful scenery, and then use the local materials to make a fire and cook. Do you want to go?"

Xiao Dongzi said excitedly: "I want to go, Grandpa, I want to go."

Dongzi immediately agreed: "Grandpa, I want to go too."

Deng Shirong said with a smile: "Then let's go to the Yongjiang River for a picnic tomorrow and celebrate your aunt's birthday."

Xiaodongzi and Dongzi were naturally cheering, and the itinerary for tomorrow was set.

…

When the hot pot was about to start, Yan Shuwen exclaimed in admiration once again. She had traveled extensively in recent years on missions and had been to more than two-thirds of the provinces in the country. She had also tasted local specialties, including something as rare as hot pot.

However, the taste of the hotpot she had eaten before was incomparable to that of this hotpot restaurant.

She is not a gourmet and cannot tell the difference in taste. She only knows that the more she eats this hot pot, the more she wants to eat it and she can't stop at all.

Half an hour later, Yan Shuwen touched her bloated stomach without any ladylike manner and said with emotion: "Cousin, this is indeed the most high-end hot pot restaurant in Nanning. It is indeed well-deserved. With such good taste, it is hard not to have a booming business."

Cousin Qin smiled and said, "Not everyone can afford to eat here. I make a lot of money running a clothing store, but I only dare to come here to eat three or two times a month. If I come too often, I will feel sad."

Yan Shuwen smiled and said, "Cousin, you've done very well. I've traveled to many places over the years. Some places are so poor that people can't even afford basic food and clothing, and they have to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables to fill their stomachs. Cousin, you can eat at this high-end hot pot restaurant two or three times a month, which is better than most people. Anyway, I don't have your ability."

Cousin Qin was very happy to be flattered by her cousin and asked, "Cousin, is there anything else you want to eat?"

Yan Shuwen shook her head and said, "No need, cousin. I'm already full now."

Cousin Qin smiled and said, "Then let's take a rest before going back."

"Um!"

…

In a blink of an eye, it is already the ninth month of the lunar calendar.

At the mooncake factory, Deng Shirong picked up a can of eight-treasure porridge that was still a little hot.

The production process of this eight-treasure porridge is as follows. First, the production raw materials are added in proportion. After being removed of impurities by machines and manually re-inspected, they can enter the production line. After going through seven steps including rinsing, draining, mixing, stirring, canning, sterilization, and steaming, the cans of eight-treasure porridge can be packed and shipped out.

Therefore, Eight Treasure Porridge is not cooked first and then bottled as most people imagine. Instead, after the raw materials are bottled, they are cooked at high temperature and high pressure using special equipment to make the Eight Treasure Porridge raw materials in the can into Eight Treasure Porridge.

This is done to achieve the purpose of sterility inside the jar so that it can be stored for a long time without spoiling.

The can of eight-treasure porridge in Deng Shirong's hand today was produced in this way.

Deng Shirong originally intended to name this Eight Treasure Porridge Yinlu. After all, in his previous life, this brand of Eight Treasure Porridge was not only the world's first canned Eight Treasure Porridge, but also the true overlord among many Eight Treasure Porridge brands, dominating the market for decades and never encountering any rivals.

But when I think back, I feel that this name is not worthwhile.

Because of the name Yinlu, everything had to start from scratch, and then build up its reputation little by little, and even spend money on advertising.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to just use the name of Master Kong.

After all, Master Kong is now a nationally renowned brand. With the Master Kong label, its popularity is really beyond the reach of Yinlu.

After becoming famous, Eight Treasure Porridge can quickly open up the market.

As long as it becomes the first canned eight-treasure porridge in the country and leaves a mark in the hearts of customers, it can enjoy the benefits for a long time.

This is also the bonus that the first person to try something new deserves.

Therefore, Deng Shirong finally decided not to use the name Yinlu, but to directly use the Master Kong brand label.

At this time, under the watchful eyes of Deng Changyu, Deng Changpei and several Eight Treasure Porridge chefs, Deng Shirong opened the plastic lid of the Eight Treasure Porridge, took out the foldable plastic spoon, and then pulled open the seal of the Eight Treasure Porridge, so that you can see the sticky and appetizing Eight Treasure Porridge inside.

This eight-treasure porridge has a longan and lotus seed flavor, which can be said to be a very classic flavor of eight-treasure porridge. Coincidentally, Bobai County is a famous hometown of longan, so this can be regarded as using local ingredients.

Deng Shirong stirred it a little with a spoon, then scooped a spoonful to taste it.

With this bite, one can clearly taste the sweetness of longan and lotus seeds, as well as the mellow taste of various grains intertwined together. The taste finally meets the standard that Deng Shirong wanted.

After tasting several mouthfuls, Deng Shirong praised: "Not bad, this is the taste. Did you write down the specific production process and time?"

Deng Changpei nodded and said, "Jiu Gong, I've written it all down!"

Deng Shirong said: "Then we can arrange production."

Deng Changpei responded: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Deng Changyu asked: "Jiu Gong, do we need to stock up on our eight-treasure porridge like we do instant noodles?"

Deng Shirong asked back: "How many cans of eight-treasure porridge can we produce per day?"

Deng Changpei continued: "If we can produce 24 hours a day, the daily production capacity can reach 50,000 cans."

Deng Shirong said, "Then we should stock up for a month. But before that, we can give some samples to our Kang Shifu instant noodle suppliers and recommend our Kang Shifu Eight Treasure Porridge to them. We can also accept their pre-orders."

Deng Changyu smiled and said, "This is a good idea. By utilizing Master Kong's sales channels, we will have no problem selling our eight-treasure porridge."

Deng Changpei asked: "Jiu Gong, what is the appropriate wholesale price for our eight-treasure porridge?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Deng Shirong said: "Don't rush to set the price. First, we need to increase the production capacity, then calculate the production cost, and then set the price based on the cost."

Deng Changpei nodded and said, "Okay, I will calculate the most accurate cost within a week."

Deng Shirong said: "Once our canned eight-treasure porridge is released, if it sells well, it will definitely attract many imitators. If it is just small workshops imitating, then we don't have to be afraid, because they can't compare with us in every aspect.

But if those Sino-foreign joint ventures or companies with backgrounds in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan also imitate us, they will be our biggest enemy, because they can enjoy tax incentives, and we cannot compete with them in cost control. "

Deng Changyu immediately took it seriously and asked, "Jiu Gong, if we encounter this situation, how should we deal with it?"

Deng Shirong said: "Don't be afraid, we also have our advantages. Our eight-treasure porridge is the first canned eight-treasure porridge. Our Master Kong is also a well-known domestic brand. Consumers are more aware of our brand. At the same price, they will definitely give priority to our Master Kong eight-treasure porridge."

Deng Changyu asked: "But what if the other party starts a price war with us?"

Deng Shirong said: "Now all parts of the country are attracting investment. Some places will give corresponding tax incentives regardless of whether they are foreign-funded or joint venture enterprises. Next, we can learn about this information through various channels.

If it is appropriate, we can build a branch factory locally so that we can enjoy tax preferential policies.

In addition, we have the first-mover advantage, and as sales increase, we can further reduce costs in purchasing raw materials.

In this way, we won’t have to worry about the other party launching a price war.”

Deng Changyu nodded and said, "Okay, then I will send someone to look into this matter and try to build our eight-treasure porridge factory as soon as possible."

"Well, that's it for now. We can discuss any problems later."

"OK."

…

A week later, the production cost of Eight Treasure Porridge was calculated.

After some thought, Deng Shirong set the wholesale price at 1.5 yuan per can and the retail guide price at 1.8 yuan per can.

The price is not cheap, but it is not expensive either. After all, after eating the eight-treasure porridge, the jar can still be used to store other things!

After setting the price, Deng Shirong became a hands-off boss. Anyway, he had already discussed with Deng Changyu and others what to do next, so he just needed to follow the steps.

…

It has to be said that people with high IQ can quickly stand out no matter what industry they are in.

After Yan Shuwen replaced her father as a railway police officer, she quickly grew into a backbone of the bureau. Her acting skills were not inferior to those criminals who were good at hiding. Even after dealing with criminals several times, her acting skills improved rapidly, and she was not inferior to professional actors.

Now she resigned from her job and came to Nanning to help her cousin. In just over a week, she became an excellent clothing salesperson.

This is actually not surprising. In the past few years, she has been dealing with criminals who are good at lying. She has long learned the ability to say different things to different people. In the past few years, no criminal has been able to see through her disguise, which shows how successful her disguise is.

It also proves that she is good at understanding people's hearts.

This approach also works great when applied to sales.

As a result, in just over a week, Yan Shuwen was doing very well in her cousin's clothing store. Her sales speed was no worse than that of her cousin who had been in this business for many years, which made her cousin Qin astonished.

This cousin Qin is also a smart person. She knows that her cousin is not an ordinary person and will definitely make a big career in the future.

Therefore, Cousin Qin was open about her promising cousin and began to teach her all the things to pay attention to when opening a clothing store, as well as what kind of clothes to buy and what aspects to pay attention to when purchasing goods.

In short, no matter how big or small the matter is, Cousin Qin shared her many years of experience in the clothing industry with me.

Yan Shuwen felt her cousin's kindness at the first moment, and she kept this favor in her heart. If she made a name for herself in the future, she would repay her cousin.

…

Guangzhou.

Yuexiu South Bus Station.

"Jiu Gong!"

"Nine ancestors!"

"The clan leader!"

After Deng Shirong got off the bus, the clansmen gathered at the station came over to say hello.

Deng Shirong nodded to them and asked, "How is Aqiang's injury?"

Deng Silong replied: "It's not serious, just a broken head, a lot of blood, and a lot of bruises on the body. The doctor said that I will recover after resting for a while."

Deng Shirong hummed, and then asked, "What exactly happened?"

Deng Silong said: "It was the night before yesterday. Ah Qiang said he was hungry and planned to go out to eat some fried noodles. Unexpectedly, he was put in a sack and beaten."

Deng Shirong asked: "Do you know who did it?"

Deng Silong said, "I don't know. I heard from Ah Qiang that someone put a sack on his head from behind, and then beat him without saying a word. After beating him, he ran away. By the time he untied the sack, he had already disappeared."

Upon hearing this, other tribesmen immediately said, "Jiu Gong, it must have been done by Nanning Che."

Deng Shirong heard this and asked, "Did Ah Qiang have a conflict with the Nanning car?"

Now Tenglong Passenger Transport Company has never stopped its development pace. It is no longer limited to the routes from Bobai to Guangdong or other places, but has also opened a route from Nanning to Guangdong. Naturally, there is a conflict of interest with the vehicles originally running this route.

Therefore, it should not be surprising that there has been conflict between the two sides.

Deng Silong continued, "Aqiang had a conflict with the Nanning bus. Both sides were trying to attract customers, but the other side couldn't compete with us, so they started to curse at us. Aqiang also cursed at them. If we hadn't been more restrained, we would have fought."

Deng Shirong narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and then continued to ask: "After Aqiang's accident, did you go to question Nanningche?"

Deng Silong shook his head and said, "No, we called back immediately, and then Jiugong, you told us not to act rashly, so we endured it and didn't question the other party."

Deng Shirong hummed and said, "I'll go see Aqiang first, and then I'll question them when I come back. If they didn't do it, then it's fine. But if they did, they will definitely pay the price."

Another tribesman said, "Nine ancestors, it must have been them. How can such a coincidence happen in this world? Less than three days after the conflict, Ah Qiang was beaten. He was even beaten with a sack over his head, and his money was not stolen. This is obviously a targeted revenge."

Deng Shirong said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, if they really did it, they will definitely not be able to hide it from my eyes. I will deal with them when the time comes and make sure they can't stay in this station any longer."

With the clan leader's words, all the clan members felt relieved.

So, the tribesmen who had nothing to do took Deng Shirong back to the dormitory to visit the injured Deng Siqiang.

Seeing Jiu Gong coming from his hometown in person, Deng Siqiang, with gauze wrapped around his head, stood up excitedly and greeted him, "Jiu Gong!"

Deng Shirong quickly held his shoulder and said, "Don't move. Sit down and have a good rest. How do you feel now?"

Deng Siqiang said: "I'm fine, I'll be fine in a few days."

Deng Shirong asked: "How many people were beating you at that time? Could you feel it?"

Deng Siqiang said: "There should be three people, all holding sticks."

"What time did you go out at night? How far did you walk before someone put you in a sack?"

"It was around 9 o'clock in the evening. I didn't walk far before I was put in a sack. I think someone was lurking there."

"Do you often go out at night?"

"We don't go out often, we just go out for a midnight snack occasionally, and we always go out with two or three people. The night before last, they weren't hungry, so I went out alone."

"Everyone should take this as a warning. In the future, if you can avoid going out at night, do not go out alone. It is best to go out with a few people. And be vigilant when you go out. Don't let this happen again when someone approaches you and puts you in a sack without you even knowing it."

"I understand, Jiugong. After what happened this time, we won't make the same mistake again."

…

PS: I thought someone would recognize Miss Yan, but I didn’t expect everyone to forget this foreshadowing (＃－－)/. (End of this chapter)
