Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Cooperation
Jiang Xi slowly expressed her thoughts, "We'll deliver goods to Shiquan Pavilion every day. You don't need to pay a deposit for these goods. You'll get a commission for every unit you sell. If you don't sell, we'll take the goods back. This way, you don't have to put down any money or hold any goods, and there's absolutely no risk in this cooperation. Is this okay with you?"
Lin Xiurong didn't expect Jiang Xi to make such a suggestion. As Jiang Xi said, if this is the case, all risks will be borne by Jiang Xi. This is a very sincere way of cooperation, and it also represents that Jiang Xi is very confident in his own products. After all, if the products cannot be sold, this cooperation will be thankless.
Lin Xiurong finally nodded: "We can try it first. Let's send out 100 servings of each of the two platters every day for now." Lin Xiurong didn't know what the customers of Shiquan Pavilion thought of the braised pork platters, so she could only be cautious for now.
Jiang Xi didn't think Lin Xiurong asked for too little. This was a new beginning, and with a beginning, things could develop slowly. "Okay, thank you, Mr. Lin."
Lin Xiurong stretched out her hand and shook hands with Jiang Xi. "Little girl, you have a good business sense and are very quick to react. I have a restaurant inside that is short of staff. Would you like to work with me?"
Jiang Xi didn't expect Lin Xiurong to poach her: "Thank you for your appreciation. I want to start my own business."
Lin Xiurong had only made a spur-of-the-moment decision. She wasn't angry at being rejected, but instead said amiably, "That's right. Once you become your own boss, you won't want to work for someone else. You're smart and know how to seize opportunities, but business isn't as easy as you think, especially when you're young and beautiful."
Lin Xiurong looked at Jiang Xi and seemed to be talking to herself: "It is much more difficult for women to do business than men, especially beautiful girls. In the business world, people will always misunderstand us and think that we are selling our bodies to get opportunities. These are things you are very likely to encounter in the future."
Jiang Xi is not a little girl who knows nothing. She understands what Lin Xiurong means. She has also heard those rumors, but since she has chosen this path, Jiang Xi will not be afraid of them: "When I have enough strength, those gossips will not hurt me, because I know what I really care about and what my goal is."
Lin Xiurong smiled widely, and at this moment she began to admire Jiang Xisheng: "You are very good. I am very good at judging people. Maybe you can really lead Wu Ji Zao Lu to a great success in the future."
Jiang Xi smiled and thanked him, then followed Chen Guangfa out of Lin Xiurong's office.
Chen Guangfa had no say in the office just now and could only watch Jiang Xi and Lin Xiurong chatting happily.
He now looks at Jiang Xi in a completely different way. Lin Xiurong is a very picky person and has very high demands on people and things. Jiang Xi can actually fight with Lin Xiurong back and forth. In the end, Lin Xiurong even asked Jiang Xi to help with something, showing that she admires Jiang Xi very much.
You know, every time Lin Xiurong came to the restaurant, she was serious and would scold people if she disagreed with them. Chen Guangfa had never seen Lin Xiurong talking to others in such a friendly manner. This girl Jiang Xi was not an ordinary girl.
"Thank you, Master Chen. It's thanks to you that I can meet Boss Lin." Jiang Xi expressed his gratitude sincerely.
Chen Guangfa waved his hand: "I didn't play any role. At most, I brought you here to meet people. The main thing is you. You are very powerful."
Jiang Xi shook his head modestly: "It's okay, it's just that I want to reach a cooperation, so I thought of some extra methods."
Until Jiang Xi left, Chen Guangfa was still thinking about the conversation just now. There were many things he didn't understand. He always felt that doing business was too complicated. Forget it, forget it. If he didn't understand, he wouldn't think about it. He should just focus on being a chef. Those complicated things were not suitable for him. If he could make friends with this little girl Jiang Xi, he could have more friends and more paths.
After reaching a cooperation with Shiquan Pavilion, Jiang Xi did not go home immediately. She had another important thing to do, which was something she had been looking forward to for a long time. The money she had earned now was enough to buy the shop she had previously set her eyes on.
Originally, Jiang Xi wanted to wait for a while and buy it when he had more funds, so as not to have no liquidity on hand. However, after what happened yesterday, Jiang Xi decided to open a shop quickly.
She specifically called Zhou Jiangang over. Zhou Jiangang was in high spirits. Jiang Xi had already paid Zhou Jiangang the commission from last time. Because he made money once, Zhou Jiangang became much more motivated and sent Jiang Xi more orders for more than a hundred pieces of braised pork.
Jiang Xi accepted it with a smile and praised Zhou Jiangang a few words. How to improve the enthusiasm of employees? Of course, praise should be given.
Zhou Jiangang chuckled and then asked curiously, "Are you really going to buy that shop?"
After following Jiang Xi in doing business for a few days, Zhou Jiangang was able to roughly calculate how much money Jiang Xi could make. When he figured it out, his first reaction was surprise. He didn't expect that a small stall could make so much money in a month, not to mention that Jiang Xi had more than one small stall.
Everyone says that being a worker is glorious, but in Zhou Jiangang's opinion, what's the use of just glory? What's real is having real money in hand. After all, glory cannot be eaten, but money can be used for food and drink.
Jiang Xi: "Well, I originally decided to open a shop, so that I don't have to travel back and forth between the county town and the countryside, and it will be more convenient to deliver goods to you."
Jiang Xi didn't tell anyone about what happened yesterday except Qi Yu'an.
Jiang Xi's reason was very convincing, and Zhou Jiangang nodded repeatedly: "Small stall owner, you really need to open a shop, otherwise it will be a chore to get all these orders from the village to the county town in the future."
Zhou Jiangang took Jiang Xi to the shop, but the shop still had not been sold.
Zhou Jiangang took Jiang Xi to find Old Man Ding. Zhou Jiangang called out to him familiarly: "Is Uncle Ding here? Someone's looking for you." As expected, Old Man Ding yelled again: "Who's looking for me? The noise was so loud that it almost stopped my heart. If anything happens to me, you'll be held responsible!"
With the sound of kicking and stomping, Old Man Ding opened the door and saw Jiang Xi and Zhou Jiangang. His face darkened. "What are you doing here? You made me run for nothing last time, and what are you doing here again this time? I don't have that much time to waste on talking to you."
Old man Ding performed as steadily as ever, and was annoying when he spoke. Zhou Jiangang wanted to say a few words to him, but he found some bruises on Old man Ding's face. It was strange, who would dare to hit Old man Ding?
Thinking this, he also asked: "Uncle Ding, what happened to your face? Who hit you?"
Old Man Ding said impatiently, "Go away, go away. I don't need to tell you what's going on. I'm asking you questions. What are you doing here?"
Jiang Xi stepped forward and said, "Uncle Ding, I came here to buy your shop."
Old Man Ding looked at Jiang Xi suspiciously and said, "My shop wants that price, not a penny less. If you're sure you want it, we can continue to negotiate. If you don't have the money, just get out."
Old Man Ding's words were merciless, and Jiang Xi didn't tolerate it. Although he had his eyes on the shop, he couldn't bear to be scolded for nothing. Jiang Xi's face darkened. "Uncle Ding, I came to you to discuss cooperation. You said it very clearly last time, and I remember the price you asked for. I came to you because I can afford it. But if you have this attitude, I don't think your shop will ever be sold. After all, if you ask for money nicely, you will be scolded. No one can stand it."
Old Man Ding was mercilessly rebuked by Jiang Xi, and his face was a little embarrassed: "Can you really afford that money?"
Jiang Xi: "Of course, but if that's your attitude, I think I can go look somewhere else."
Old Man Ding had a very interesting look on his face. He was used to confronting people and had no intention of saying nice things. He had kept the shop open for such a long time, but very few people came to see it, let alone those who explicitly asked to buy it. Now, finally, a buyer came, and Old Man Ding didn't want to miss it, but asking him to lose face was more painful than killing him.
Seeing the situation tense, Zhou Jiangang quickly played the role of peacemaker: "Hey, hey, it's fate that we can get together. Doesn't it also depend on the shop? If the business is done, we will all be friends. Why bother? Let's talk it out."
Jiang Xi still wanted to buy the shop after all, and he wasn't deliberately trying to be mean to Old Man Ding. After hearing what Zhou Jiangang said, he just went along with it: "Uncle Ding, I'm here to buy the shop sincerely, and I need you to take me to see it."
Old Man Ding's tone also softened a little: "Okay, I'll take you to see it again."
Several people came to the shop again. Jiang Xi carefully looked at the shop on the first floor, and then went upstairs to see the living quarters on the second floor. Although the upstairs was not very new, it was very clean overall and only needed a simple cleanup before moving in.
After Jiang Xi bought this place, the shop on the first floor must be renovated. If the second floor can be occupied directly, Jiang Xi can save this part of the cost. After all, Jiang Xi's financial strength is not that strong now, so every penny saved is a penny earned.
Jiang Xi was very satisfied with this place. She couldn't find any fault with it. "Uncle Ding, I'll buy this place."
Old Man Ding's voice was still a little stiff, but his attitude was much better. "Okay, 1,500 yuan. No credit. Pay me all at once."
Jiang Xi nodded, but such a big deal as buying something still required a written contract. Jiang Xi took out the contract he had prepared long ago. Old Man Ding took a closer look to make sure it was all right: "Sign the contract today, and I'll take you to transfer the ownership early."
One party was willing to buy and could afford the money, while the other party was anxious to sell. The deal was concluded smoothly, but just when everyone thought everything was going smoothly, something went wrong.
Jiang Xi and Old Man Ding had just signed the contract when two people suddenly broke in.
The people who came were a couple. The man was strong and the woman also looked strong. They were both panting and obviously came here after hearing the news from somewhere else.
Zhou Jiangang was surprised. Aren't these the two owners of the noodle shop? He stood up and asked, "Why are you here?"
The two men ignored Zhou Jiangang and yelled at Old Man Ding, "What are you doing? This shop is ours. Who allowed you to sell it?"
