243: Chapter 242: Trouble (4 more) 243: Chapter 242: Trouble (4 more) In order to file the marriage report, Jin Yu made a trip to the organizational branch, and Xu Niannian could walk on her foot on the third day.
She just couldn’t exert too much force.
It was ti to supply Liuyue Su again, and Xu Niannian felt that supplying Liuyue Su every three days was too troubleso.
She went out of her way to check on the Liuyue Su samples she had processed with natural preservatives.
After eight or nine days, upon reopening the container, the aroma of the Liuyue Su was still unchanged.
At least now, it could be confird that Liuyue Su could be stored for at least eight or nine days.
So, Xu Niannian planned to make more at once and supply them, and then supply again after ten days.
With the machine, and Yang Cuihua and Xu Dawei helping out, Xu Niannian worked even faster.
It was just that since she couldn’t stand all the ti, she had to take a few minutes break after being busy for a while.
In three hours, Xu Niannian made a total of three thousand Liuyue Su.
This ti the quantity was a bit much.
After Xu Niannian was done, her foot was sowhat overwheld.
Yang Cuihua called Zhao Pang back to deliver the goods, while she went to the shop to help out.
Zhao Pang ca over and was shocked to see so many Liuyue Su.
Xu Niannian asked him to also pass on the ssage that Liuyue Su could last at least ten days.
After loading the boxes onto the cart, Zhao Pang rembered the strange custor in the shop recently, and said to Xu Niannian.
“Boss, there’s been a weird woman coming to the shop to eat Butter Sauce noodles lately, she eats for a long ti every ti, and she keeps asking questions.
I feel like she wants to steal the secret of our Butter Sauce.”
Xu Niannian raised her eyebrows slightly, “It’s fine, don’t worry about it.”
There wasn’t just her restaurant on Daxing Street, and since she opened her shop, business had always been booming, inevitably robbing business from the other shops.
It was inevitable that soone would want to play tricks, and Xu Niannian had anticipated this.
What she hadn’t expected was for these people to bide their ti so well, acting only after nearly two months since her shop opened.
Seeing Xu Niannian’s nonchalance, Zhao Pang thought she wasn’t taking it seriously, and anxiously said.
“Boss, I’m serious, it’s been several days, and I didn’t tell you until today because on the way here, I saw that woman conspiring in a tailor shop with the proprietress of a restaurant across the street.
I suspect they are planning to steal your secret recipe.”
To steal, they’d have to find it useful.
The function of the stream water was to filter impurities out of the food; it might seem insignificant, but the secret recipes mixed with stream water differed greatly from those that didn’t use it.
That was the reason Xu Niannian was at ease.
Initially, she had tried not to use stream water as well.
With her cooking skills, coupled with the fact that the Butter Sauce recipe indeed ca from her space, even without using stream water, the taste was extrely delicious.
Yet, it wasn’t as unforgettable.
Moreover, because the Butter Sauce contained stream water, even the most discerning palate could only detect the more obvious seasonings; it was impossible to taste the other ingredients in the recipe.
“Alright, you go ahead and deliver the goods.
Rember to pass on what I said, and I’ll handle the rest.”
Zhao Pang had no choice but to agree, though he was still a bit worried.
Not long after Zhao Pang left, Sister Qingshui ca over.
Sister Qingshui had been running around dealing with cooperative shops these past few days.
In Nancheng County, which had only a few towns, Sister Qingshui took the Liuyue Su samples from Xu Niannian to those towns to discuss partnerships with local shops.
The results were worse than Sister Qingshui had expected.
At first, when she brought out Liuyue Su for those shop owners to try, they showed a very strong desire to collaborate after tasting it.
However, as soon as they heard the price, they imdiately backed out.
They said the pastries would be more acceptable at forty cents a pound rather than per piece, and they uniformly refused, stating that town folks wouldn’t be willing to spend money on such items.
Sister Qingshui wore her lips out talking, and only managed to find three cooperative shops, even failing to find a single one in one of the towns.
Although Sister Qingshui was astute, she had no way around this situation; the others were resolutely disagreeing, and she couldn’t just forcefully stuff her products down their throats.
So here she was, rushing to Xu Niannian for advice.
Asking Xu Niannian what to do.
Being turned down by potential partners in the towns due to the price was sothing Xu Niannian had foreseen.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have headed directly to the county town to sell her goods instead of going to the towns in the first place.
Seeing Sister Qingshui sweating profusely, Xu Niannian knew she was anxious, as she must have run all the way here.
She quickly poured her a glass of water, “Sister Qingshui, don’t panic, take a drink first.”
Sister Qingshui had no ti for water; she was extrely anxious, taking the water Xu Niannian offered and imdiately setting it down on the table.
“Niannian, what should we do?
I thought for sure there would be many shops vying for cooperation, but I didn’t expect to run into such a big snag.”
“Moreover, do you know?
Even the three stores I talked down only want a very small quantity, one wants just 100 pieces, one only 50, and one is even more extre, taking only 30.”
“How can we do business like this?
That’s even less than what a single one of my shops orders.”
Xu Niannian felt a little helpless, “You take a sip of water first.
I’ll explain slowly, this was already within my expectations, no rush.”
Only then did Sister Qingshui drink the tea on the table, it had nearly quenched her thirst.
“You have a plan, right?”
