After Boss Wang and Feng Haidong finished making their decision and left, Liu Fenzhen rushed out and pulled Feng Haidong aside.
"Are you out of your mind, kid? This was originally our family's exclusive business. Your brother-in-law and I have both inquired and found that although most markets in the provincial capital sell crayfish, most people don't know how to cook them properly, so there are very few crayfish in the markets, not enough for these restaurants at all."
So we have an exclusive business. We'll promote it during the May Day holiday, and after the holiday we'll definitely make a name for ourselves in the provincial capital. Why are you still supplying others now?
Before Feng Haidong could answer, Ma Bangcheng came out and spoke first.
“Don’t blame Haidong. Actually, Haidong did the right thing. Think about it, how many people can our store serve? I heard Jianxing say last time that crayfish grow very fast, especially after the weather gets warmer. They can grow into a whole batch in no time. Our store simply can’t handle them all.”
Feng Haidong picked up where his cousin-in-law left off: "So, I need to find buyers for the crayfish we raise at home, so that we can sell all the crayfish we've raised."
Ma Bangcheng added, "Yes, so Haidong supplies other restaurant owners so that they can all make crayfish, thus expanding the market and getting everyone to start eating crayfish, and then selling all the crayfish that Jianxing raises."
After hearing this, Liu Fenzhen understood Feng Haidong's plan.
At this moment, Ma Ling suddenly asked, "Dad, Uncle, but if we do this, won't other shops steal our business?"
Feng Haidong laughed and said, "In a city as big as the provincial capital, how can one shop possibly do business with everyone? Besides, don't you trust your uncle's skills? Are you worried that the other shops can surpass me? If they really can surpass me, it means my skills have declined."
Ma Bangcheng said, "That's right, there are definitely not many places that can surpass your uncle's skills."
After hearing this, Ma Ling and the other waiters thought about it seriously and also felt that there was indeed nothing to worry about.
After all, the provincial capital is very large, and it has not only locals, but also many people from the province and other places.
Therefore, it's impossible for Feng Haidong's restaurant to serve so many people.
Instead of letting those restaurant owners find other sources of goods, Feng Haidong would rather introduce his family's sources to them, so that his family's crayfish farming business could also make money in the provincial capital.
At the same time, with more restaurants serving crayfish in the provincial capital, crayfish will become very popular there.
When the time comes, Feng Haidong's first store will definitely be very popular.
In addition, as long as the taste is maintained, there is no need to fear competition from other stores.
Feng Haidong said confidently, "Don't worry, everyone. Our business will not only be unaffected, but once crayfish restaurants are all over the city, our business will only get better and better."
Fang Hongwei finally asked, "Uncle, am I really going to deliver it to that family tomorrow?"
Feng Haidong said, "Of course I'll deliver them. Tomorrow you'll deliver four baskets to his house. The price will be the same as what you paid me. But remember, you have to make sure that Mr. Wang pays you for the delivery. If he doesn't, you can bring those four baskets back to me. Anyway, my own shop needs them."
Fang Hongwei nodded and agreed, "Okay, Uncle, I understand. I'll head back now."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "Okay, you go back first. Be careful on the road. And don't spend the money you made from those bosses today recklessly. I'll ask your uncle to open a bank account for you and deposit it all. Once you've saved enough money, I'll ask your aunt to find you a beautiful wife."
Fang Hongwei was embarrassed by these words and could only nod in agreement with a blush before leaving.
Watching Fang Hongwei leave, Liu Fenzhen said, "Haidong, I've noticed you're quite cunning. You actually had Hongwei go and ask them for the shipping fee; that's a pretty ruthless move."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "The main problem is that Hongwei is too honest, so I can only teach him how to do it. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't ask for the shipping fee. I supply goods to that Boss Wang, and I'm barely making any profit on the price. I can't possibly pay for the shipping myself, can I?"
Hearing this, everyone laughed.
Feng Haidong then made a phone call to his brother-in-law.
Fang Jianxing, the eldest sister's husband, happened to be at Feng Baoan's shop in town.
So when Feng Haidong called home but no one answered, he called the crayfish shop in Feng Baoan's town.
After the call was connected, Feng Haidong briefly explained the situation to Fang Jianxing and Feng Baoan.
Fang Jianxing and Feng Baoan were already experienced, so they immediately understood Feng Haidong's plan.
Fang Jianxing said on the phone, "Haidong, your idea is very good. It solves the problem of where to sell our shrimp. You don't know how fast those shrimp grow. We can catch a large batch every day, and they are all very big. In addition to what Uncle Bao'an is buying, we simply can't consume them all locally."
Hearing his brother-in-law's words, Feng Haidong felt a little regretful. He wished he had let Duan Jian's shop stay afloat for a while longer, which would have helped consume some of the crayfish.
Then Feng Haidong said on the phone, "Brother-in-law, remember to select all the best ones for me tomorrow, and send the best ones to my family's restaurant as well. As for the rest that were rejected, if there are people in the city who come to the town to collect them, give them to them. You and Uncle Bao'an can decide the price yourselves."
Fang Jianxing smiled and said, "Okay, Hai Dong, your words are enough. Uncle Bao'an and I know what to do."
Feng Haidong added, "Also, May Day is coming soon. Brother-in-law, you must reserve the best batch of crayfish for my family and the two stores in the provincial capital. You must supply enough for my family and us for the three days of May Day."
Fang Jianxing agreed, saying, "Okay, then I'll save all the shrimp from my pond for you and deliver them to your two stores during the May Day holiday."
Feng Haidong smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your trouble, brother-in-law."
Fang Jianxing said, "What's the trouble? This is a great opportunity to make money. Uncle Bao'an, the villagers, and I all want to thank you for giving us a good way to make money."
Feng Baoan took the phone and asked, "Haidong, many people in the village saw Jianxing raising shrimp and want to raise shrimp too."
Feng Haidong said, "Sure, Uncle Bao'an, you, my brother-in-law, and Liang Cong should discuss it. If the village can raise them, then let the village raise them too. Anyway, the market will definitely be huge in the future."
With Feng Haidong's consent, Feng Baoan said, "Okay, I'll discuss it with Jianxing and Xiao Liang, and then I'll go back to the village and ask around to see which family is willing to raise them. Anyway, we'll let those who are willing to raise them start raising them, and we'll still collect them all together. Haidong, you can distribute them."
Feng Haidong said, "Thank you for your trust, Uncle Bao'an. When you go back, please tell the villagers that I, Feng Haidong, thank everyone for their trust."
Feng Baoan chuckled and said, "No need to thank me. We're all family, of course we trust you."
