Chapter 45: Failed to Trade
Since that day, Gu Lanting has not appeared in front of Yuanxiao.
Even the college entrance examination materials were sent to her by Zhao Fubing.
Yuanxiao roughly flipped through them. In addition to the exercise materials, Gu Lanting also gave her a review textbook, everything was complete.
Putting the review aside for the time being, He Changlin has already scheduled a time with her to meet the director of the tea factory.
If her tea can cooperate with the tea factory, it can be sold openly on the market instead of speculation.
Yuanxiao specially wore a pink long skirt today, and a pair of white shoes underneath.
I heard from the merchants on the black market that these white shoes were imported from Guangdong Province.
I have to say that white shoes can really be popular for decades without going out of style.
Yuan Xiao is now born white, with cold white leather all over her body. She wears a pink long skirt, which adds a touch of lively femininity.
Girls all love beauty, and Yuan Xiao is the same. She rarely wears it because pants are convenient.
He Changlin saw Yuan Xiao coming from a distance, and thought that if this was his own daughter, he would be heartbroken.
"Director Yu's style is average, you have to be moderate when talking to him." Before entering the factory, He Changlin reminded her suddenly.
Yuan Xiao understood immediately that He Changlin had left room for maneuver when he spoke, and the "average" he said meant not very good.
He Changlin himself is a pass. When entering the tea factory, the deputy director personally greeted and led Director Yu to his office.
After Director Yu greeted He Changlin, his eyes were attracted by Yuan Xiao.
There was surprise in his eyes at first, and then perhaps he thought of He Changlin, and felt a little regretful.
He smiled and asked: "Who is this..."
"This is my niece, Yuan Xiao." He Changlin took over the conversation.
Yuan Xiao smiled and said: "Hello, Director Yu."
The voice was crisp and soft, and Director Yu felt a little itchy.
"Secretary, please sit down. I don't have much of anything here, just a lot of tea." He stood up and greeted.
He Changlin glanced at Yuan Xiao, and Yuan Xiao took out the tea leaves from the bag.
"Director Yu, I brought my niece here today because I want to discuss business with you. Since you want to make tea, why not try the tea produced by my niece's own family."
He Changlin handed the tea leaves to Director Yu.
Director Yu took it, smelled it, and knew at a glance that it was good tea, so he asked his assistant to take it out and brew it. After
He Changlin and Yuan Xiao sat down, he asked: "Since the secretary has spoken, I naturally have no reason to give him face. Such tea, even if it is specially supplied to the superiors, has advantages."
"But..."
Director Yu hesitated, as if he had some difficulties.
Seeing He Changlin raise his eyes, he said: "Tea is something that ordinary families don't care about. Such good tea is actually not popular in our Qushui County."
"This tea is priced at 30 yuan, which is indeed not the consumption level of ordinary families, but it is expensive for a reason. People who know the goods will always buy it." Yuan Xiao took over.
She was not going to lower the price.
Director Yu was a little surprised. 30 yuan? How many workers' families don't have a monthly income of 30!
"If you want to sell it in the tea factory, I suggest you lower the price a bit. 15 yuan is still appropriate."
Yuan Xiao and He Changlin looked at each other, "This price is too low. The route I want to take is not to sell low-end products."
And she firmly believes that her tea is worth this price.
Director Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and he was quite disdainful of Yuan Xiao in his heart. He Changlin actually participated in this kind of childish play!
15 may not even be bought, and you still want to sell it for 30?
Although he had an opinion in his heart, he did not show it, but continued to say: "How do you calculate the profit sharing?"
Yuan Xiao had an idea in his mind, and said: "From picking to finished products, and then to packaging, I can take care of it here, split 20% and 80%."
Director Yu frowned, "Packaging? The products of the tea factory must use the fixed packaging of the tea factory."
Yuan Xiao smiled, "I cooperate with the tea factory, but the products are my own."
He Changlin saw the assistant put the tea on the table, picked it up and took a sip, it seemed that the negotiation could not be successful.
Director Yu laughed and said, "It doesn't matter, even if the deal fails, there is still friendship."
In fact, he not only had an opinion on the packaging, but the profit he could get from such a profit sharing was too little, it was not worth it.
Yuan Xiao sighed in her heart, but smiled as she picked up the teacup, "I'll use tea instead of wine, thank you for the meeting with the factory director."
After leaving the tea factory, Yuan Xiao still felt regretful.
The quality of her tea is not expensive at 30 yuan a can, but the people here don't have enough purchasing power.
After saying goodbye to He Changlin, Yuan Xiao was about to leave, but she heard someone calling her from behind.
"Yuan Xiao!"
Yuan Xiao's expression turned cold, it was Cheng Feng.
To Yuan Xiao, Cheng Feng was like an immortal fly, who would come out to annoy him from time to time.
"I heard that you made tea and were going to sell it in the tea factory?"
Yuan Xiao said sarcastically, "I heard? Who did you hear that from?"
She didn't even tell Yang Zhen about the matter before it was even started.
Cheng Feng felt a little guilty, naturally she had heard what the system said.
A few days ago, the system released the latest task, which doubled the points. As long as she completed this task, not only would the intelligence points that had been deducted before be restored, but her beauty points would also increase.
"Looking at you like this, did things fail?"
Yuan Xiao was too lazy to pay attention to her and walked forward.
It has been hot these days, and when she got up early, she heard her grandma cough a few times.
It happened that she found snow pears in the mountains, so she bought some Sichuan Fritillary Bulbs and other ingredients, planning to make some pear paste.
It takes time to make pear paste, and she has to go back early.
Fortunately, Cheng Feng was sensible and did not follow her, otherwise don't blame her for being rude.
When Yuan Xiao returned home, he saw Wang Yazhi sewing shoe soles.
Wang Yazhi and Yuanxiao use rose essence together. They drink it every day. Not only does her complexion improve, but she also looks fairer and tenderer. She finally looks like a woman in her early thirties.
She doesn't have to work in the fields anymore. She is relaxed and plump. She is no longer skinny as before.
She has gained some weight and her face has grown a lot. She has the same big eyes, delicate nose, and bright red lips as Yuanxiao. With this kind of dress, she can make a debut in the entertainment industry!
"Mom, didn't I tell you not to do these things that strain your eyes?" Yuanxiao said angrily.
The money she and Wang Yazhi have now is enough to buy another courtyard house. They can just buy whatever they want.
Wang Yazhi kept working, threading the thread skillfully, "This is not for us, but for Mr. Chu next door. I saw today that his shoes were worn out. I made a pair of shoes for him and Uncle Gu."
Yuan Xiao was startled, "Have you met Mr. Chu?"
According to Uncle Gu, Chu Jiangping would not leave the room easily.
Wang Yazhi pointed to the pile of snow pears in the yard, "Daqiang sent so many snow pears today, they are so sweet, I sent some over, and Mr. Chu happened to be basking in the sun in the yard."
Yuan Xiao put all this behind him and asked Yang Zhen to help deal with the snow pears.
Keep some to sell, and boil some to make Sichuan Fritillary Snow Pear Paste.
With Yang Zhen's help, it was faster to cut the snow pears into shreds.
Yuan Xiao was worried that the pear paste would become mushy, so he was watching from the side all the time.
As the pear paste gradually thickened, the sweet fragrance overflowed, and Yuan Xiao was covered with sweetness.
Every time she got something good, she would give it to Tan Yanan and the others first. This time was no exception, but she had to wait until Zhao Fubing came to visit tomorrow.
When the pear paste cooled, she put it into a transparent jar and asked Wang Yazhi to send another jar to the next door.
She kept some of the rest at home, and Zhao Fubing could sell it tomorrow.
