He Shitou looked at He Tiantian with pleading eyes and begged, "Sister, why don't you teach us how to do business with the restaurant owners?"
This... He Tiantian was somewhat at a loss.
Because she had never done any business dealings before. Her previous interactions with Hong Erniang and Manager Guan were purely due to her thick skin.
However, seeing the expectant looks on He Shitou and Zhao Xiaohe's faces, He Tiantian felt she had to say something.
She thought for a moment and said, "Do you think our preserved eggs are delicious?"
He Shitou and Zhao Xiaohe nodded in unison. It was delicious; they both liked it very much.
"So, is it only our family that can make these preserved eggs?"
The two bewildered men nodded again. "Exclusive recipe, only available here, absolutely unique."
"Okay, that's settled then. First, you need to be thick-skinned enough, and second, you need certain negotiation skills..."
Based on her own experience, He Tiantian rattled off a long explanation.
Finally, she played the role of the restaurant owner and had He Shitou and Zhao Xiaohe come to her to negotiate.
The three of them worked on the simulation until late at night.
He Tiantian was exhausted, but Zhao Xiaohe and He Shitou's eyes were full of light.
It seems that it's not actually that difficult.
First, believe in your product. Second, don't be afraid of rejection.
There are plenty of restaurants in the city, and they simply don't believe that not a single restaurant owner has given their consent.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking.
Zhao Xiaohe and He Shitou carried two baskets of preserved eggs into the city. This time, they brought a total of forty preserved eggs.
They plan to use these forty preserved eggs to open up the market for the next four hundred, or even four thousand, preserved eggs.
Two teenagers, filled with dreams for the future, embarked on their journey to the city.
Because Zhao Xiaohe and He Shitou had been going into the city frequently these past few days, they had become somewhat familiar with some things in the city.
The two walked toward a commercial street with many restaurants. Although it was early morning, the shops were already open.
There are many breakfast vendors at this time of year, and the steaming hot buns smell wonderful.
After smelling it, Zhao Xiaohe and He Shitou's stomachs rumbled.
They left so early in the morning that they didn't have time to eat breakfast.
Zhao Xiaohe clicked his tongue, "Brother Shitou, where is Auntie's shop? How about we go there for breakfast?"
He Shitou looked around. "Little He, that's a great idea. But I don't remember which street my sister's shop is on..."
He only came once, and so much time has passed that he has no recollection of it at all.
Zhao Xiaohe didn't say much, just decided to bear with it a little longer.
Once they sell the preserved eggs, they'll have money to buy meat buns.
Just then, a restaurant of moderate size opened for business. A woman who appeared to be the owner of the restaurant came out.
He Shitou and Zhao Xiaohe exchanged a glance, and decided to focus their first negotiation on the woman.
The shop seems to sell simple food, like ordinary stir-fries.
He Shitou and Zhao Xiaohe entered the house carrying baskets. Liu Yunniang thought the two had come for a meal, so she warmly welcomed them.
"What would you two like to eat?"
He Shitou immediately replied, "We don't eat."
I thought he would say something more, but He Shitou blushed and didn't say anything more.
Zhao Xiaohe was anxious and had no choice but to speak up, "Auntie, Auntie. We're here to sell things."
Upon hearing that it was a sales pitch, Liu Yunniang immediately lost interest. Her shop hadn't made any money yet today, and they wanted her to spend money on things?
This is simply a dream!
"Go away, I'm not buying. You two get out of here and don't delay my business."
A hint of embarrassment immediately appeared on the faces of Zhao Xiaohe and He Shitou.
However, this result was what they expected in their simulation last night, so it's nothing special.
"Auntie, we sell preserved eggs. You know preserved eggs, right? They taste better than chicken eggs," Zhao Xiaohe quickly introduced.
Liu Yunniang didn't care about eggs; all she could do now was kick the two people in front of her out.
"I'm not interested, you guys get out of here..."
"Auntie, we can give you some to eat for free. You can buy more if you like it," He Shitou said shamelessly.
He's shameless when it comes to making money to raise horses.
Sure enough, Liu Yunniang hesitated.
She looked at the two teenagers with a puzzled expression, "Free food?"
"Are there still such good things happening these days?" She was indeed quite interested.
He Shitou quickly took a preserved egg from the basket. "Auntie, could I borrow your plate? This needs to be mixed with some salt and vinegar, and it would be even better if you had some tofu..."
Liu Yunniang took out the things He Shitou needed from the back kitchen of the shop.
Restaurant owners generally have a good supply of seasonings and side dishes.
He Shitou felt that one preserved egg was too few and didn't look good, so he took the initiative to add another one.
He often saw Xiao Lv mixing this at home, so he knew how to do it very well.
"Alright, it must taste delicious!" He Shitou looked at his masterpiece with great satisfaction.
He placed the plate in front of Liu Yunniang, handed her the chopsticks, and said with anticipation and confidence, "Auntie, please try it."
Looking at the dark yellow egg, Liu Yunniang wondered if it was spoiled.
She leaned closer and sniffed it, finding no strange smell. Then she picked up a piece with her chopsticks, put it in her mouth, and chewed it.
Liu Yunniang's tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed. Hmm, why does this taste so strange? It's actually quite good.
