Wang Defa's reaction was exactly what Yuan Doudou wanted. She wanted to make the other party feel bad so that he would cooperate with her more often in the future.
“Look, you’re still growing strawberries, right? I’ll add another fifty kilograms of strawberries every month, and you can set the price.” Wang Defa said confidently, just like when he bought the oyster mushrooms.
Here comes the benefit: I was worried about strawberry sales, but now it's all taken care of.
"Manager Wang, you're too kind. Don't worry about the price, I'll give you the lowest possible price," Yuan Doudou said cheerfully.
Manager Wang smiled broadly, confirming his suspicions; working with someone like Yuan Doudou was indeed worry-free.
"Okay, it's settled then. The peony mushrooms will be delivered together in the middle of each month."
After speaking with Manager Wang, Yuan Doudou left the restaurant with Anji.
Anji was holding a candied hawthorn and eating it with relish.
"Mommy, that uncle was so nice. He even bought me candied hawthorns," Anji said happily, licking a piece of rock candy.
Yuan Doudou laughed. He had no idea how much his mother had given the other party; it was probably more than a hundred candied hawthorns.
To boost the oyster mushroom business, she wrote down a menu on the spot, including fried oyster mushrooms, oyster mushroom meatball soup, and a menu for French fries.
This will undoubtedly give Haoqing a great opportunity to attract more customers.
She originally wanted to make and sell her own fries, but after careful consideration, she gave up the idea. Firstly, the cost was high, and secondly, it was time-consuming and laborious, and there was no guarantee that they would be popular.
French fries are meant to be eaten immediately. Once fried, they will soften or harden in a short time, affecting their taste.
I decided to give it as a favor, as it would be helpful for their future cooperation.
Yuan Doudou held the money bag, thinking about buying some things to take back. She was short of everything: rice, flour, oil, and sugar.
After the family finished handling the funeral arrangements, the kitchen was empty, and the money was gone too. They even borrowed an ounce from Zhang Aiju during the process.
The coffin used for Wang was also purchased on credit, costing three taels of silver.
You don't know the cost of firewood and rice until you're in charge of the household. Since coming here, Yuan Doudou has fully understood the hardships of managing a household and thinks her mother is the greatest person in the world.
"Anji, are you tired? Come on, let Mommy carry you." Yuan Doudou bent down.
Anji shook his head. He was a man and couldn't let his mother carry him.
"Mommy, I can walk by myself. Look how fast I am!" Angie suddenly sped up and walked forward.
Yuan Doudou was worried that he would fall, so she quickly told him to stop.
"Hey, whose child is this? How does he walk?" Angie bumped into a woman, who angrily questioned him.
Anji stood still, too afraid to move.
Yuan Doudou quickly stepped forward, put her hands on Anji's shoulders, and apologized to the woman, "I'm sorry, this is my child, he didn't mean to bump into you."
The woman frowned, clearly impatient. Judging from Yuan Doudou's appearance, she didn't seem like she had ever had a child.
"Is this really your child?" The woman's probing gaze scrutinized Yuan Doudou.
That's obvious, I already said it's her child.
“Absolutely true.” Yuan Doudou said, emphasizing each word.
The woman snorted coldly, rolled her eyes, and swung her arm away.
Yuan Doudou was confused. What was this person angry about? Anji hadn't bumped into him hard, and she had already apologized.
"Mother, I was wrong, please scold me." Angie lowered her head guiltily.
Yuan Doudou squatted down, hugged Anji in her arms, and comforted him: "Anji, it's okay, just be careful next time."
Anji nodded obediently, "Mommy, I remember, I need to watch where I'm going."
"Anji is the best." It's a good thing that the child has a good attitude.
Yuan Doudou bought a whole basket full of things and took Anji's hand as they headed to the post station.
Wang Qiling was waiting for her empty-handed. When she saw her coming, she hurried forward and said solicitously, "Sister Dou Dou, let me help you with that."
Yuan Doudou laughed, finally knowing to call her "sister," "No need, how could a sister bully her brother?"
She made a joke on purpose, which made the other person blush.
Wang Qiling felt frustrated. Besides being pretty, what did Yuan Doudou have that made his older brother like her? There were so many gentle and dignified girls out there.
The arrival of the carriage interrupted Wang Qiling's thoughts. He had already decided what to say when he got back; getting his elder brother to give up as soon as possible was the most important thing.
"You've bought so much stuff, it seems you've made quite a bit of money, Sister Dou Dou. If you ever find a way to make money, don't forget your little brother."
Yuan Doudou wanted to laugh. He had just looked down on her, but now he was begging her.
"If you're willing, there are plenty of opportunities to make money." She has plenty of plans, but she needs someone to implement them. This person needs to be not only smart but also able to take risks.
Just because something is profitable in modern times doesn't mean it will be a bestseller in this era.
Oyster mushrooms are like that. Most people, upon hearing that they are mushrooms, dare not eat them at all. They can only say that they are oyster mushrooms, which are not the same species as mushrooms.
"Don't worry, Sister Dou Dou, I won't let you help me for nothing. No matter what the project is, the profits will be split 30/70, I'll get 70% and you get 30%." Wang Qiling's eyes gleamed.
It must be said that Wang Qiling and Wang Qiqiang are different.
He was certain that Yuan Doudou was capable of making money for him, so rather than letting someone else get there first, he decided to establish a connection himself.
Yuan Doudou smiled without saying a word. Investing in technology stocks was a good idea, but she needed to go back and plan it out.
"Okay, don't rush. I'll come find you after I've decided what to do." Yuan Doudou thought for a while and decided to use delaying tactics.
Wang Qiling slapped his thigh happily, feeling that there was no major problem.
Before they knew it, the carriage had reached the village entrance. Anji had fallen asleep, but luckily Wang Qiling was there. He carried Anji off the carriage, and Yuan Doudou followed, then carried a basket on her back.
After the carriage left, the people inside began to praise, "That young couple just now, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, a match made in heaven."
The coachman couldn't help but laugh. He had driven Yuan Doudou many times and knew she was a widow. These people were just making wild guesses.
When they arrived at the door, Yuan Doudou opened it, went inside first to put down the basket, and then came out to carry Anji away.
From beginning to end, Wang Qiling did not step into the courtyard.
"Oh, right, Qiling, your older brother is in my greenhouse. Go find him." She teased Wang Qiling as she watched him walk away.
Wang Qiling didn't understand at first, but by the time she realized what was happening, Yuan Doudou had already entered the courtyard and closed the gate.
"Hey, you're so cunning." He admitted he was meddling too much, but it was all out of good intentions.
Originally, I was thinking of finding my older brother, but after Yuan Doudou said that, I suddenly lost interest.
Yuan Doudou put Anji down and covered his belly with a small blanket.
I realized it was getting late, and Anji would definitely be hungry when he woke up.
She quietly left the inner room and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Besides rice and flour, she also bought a piece of pork belly in the basket, intending to make braised pork.
Angie, like her, loves to eat meat.
She only bought a small amount of spices for making braised pork, because they were too expensive.
