Cheng Yun briefly expressed his ideas and put ahead the request for “sharing.”

Such a cooperative mannequin is widespread in later generations, however remarkable on this period. Subsequently, when Cheng Yun completed talking, Liu Wen fell silent for a second.

He touched his chin and glanced at Cheng Bao’er, his eyes stuffed with curiosity.

He trusted Cheng Yun, however he didn’t utterly belief the individual Cheng Yun launched. Furthermore, this younger Ge’er seemed skinny and weak, and he had been huddled subsequent to Cheng Yun since he entered. Though they have been brothers, he lacked the boldness that Cheng Yun had proven again then. May such an individual actually deal with this job effectively?

Cheng Yun knew what Liu Wen was fearful about, however he was not deterred by his hesitation.

He pushed the 2 cups of bitter plum soup they’d simply drunk in entrance of Liu Wen and requested, “Brother Liu, do you might have any ideas concerning the bitter plum soup we simply drank?”

Liu Wen paused for a second, then lowered his head and seemed on the two cups. Being quick-witted, he instantly understood.

Cheng Yun smiled and stated, “One of many jars right here was made by me, and the opposite jar was made by Bao’er. He’s very gifted and might produce a style corresponding to mine after only one try.”

After saying that, he patted Cheng Bao’er’s shoulder and praised, “I’m not simply saying this as a result of he’s my youthful brother, however Bao’er could be very severe and accountable in his work. I can belief him utterly.”

Liu Wen remained silent and stared on the two cups for some time. After a very long time, he stated, “You stated one cup of bitter plum soup sells for 2 yuan, with Yueqiong Tower and also you every taking one yuan?”

“Sure,” Cheng Yun’s expression grew to become severe when it got here to enterprise issues. “That is my preliminary pricing, however Yueqiong Tower doesn’t want to offer any manpower or sources. They solely must allocate a small area for us to show our merchandise.”

Liu Wen rubbed his chin and contemplated for a second earlier than saying, “I disagree.”

As quickly as these phrases have been spoken, each Cheng brothers have been surprised.

However quickly, Liu Wen smiled and stated, “At Yueqiong Tower, tea prices greater than that.” He gestured along with his hand, “Six yuan, divided evenly between the 2 sides. If it’s acceptable, we will begin right this moment.”

Not solely Cheng Bao’er, however even Cheng Yun’s temper fluctuated like a curler coaster. However when he heard Liu Wen end talking, he lastly breathed a sigh of aid.

Bao’er’s response was much more direct. He grabbed Cheng Yun’s arm, leaving 5 crimson marks from his robust grip.

Is it settled like this? The circumstances are even higher than imagined!

Yang Hongjin, who had been sitting quietly on the aspect, all of a sudden grew to become sad. He furrowed his brows and stared at Cheng Bao’er’s hand, however his spouse had stated that he was his youthful brother and he couldn’t intervene in entrance of others. Because of this, he may solely watch helplessly, his expression much more severe than when Cheng Yun was negotiating.

Liu Wen and Cheng Yun mentioned some particulars of their cooperation. The primary time Cheng Yun was challenged by the shopkeeper, he was requested for a tea price of ten yuan. However later, each time they got here to Yueqiong Tower, they have been handled effectively. Subsequently, Cheng Yun nonetheless didn’t know the particular costs at Yueqiong Tower, he solely had a tough thought.

Below detailed questioning this time, he discovered that at Yueqiong Tower, when you solely drank tea with out consuming something, it will value eight yuan as a tea price. However when you ordered different meals, the tea price would solely be one yuan. As compared, Liu Wen’s proposal of promoting a cup of bitter plum soup for six yuan was not notably exaggerated.

Cheng Yun additional refined it, saying, “Bitter plum soup might be thought-about a gimmick to let extra folks style it. We will promote it in two sizes. One jar of bitter plum soup might be offered for six yuan. If somebody desires to purchase only one cup, it is going to be two yuan per cup. This manner, even when persons are ready for a desk, we will promote plenty of bitter plum soup.”

Liu Wen’s calculation began in his thoughts. He quietly moved his fingers to calculate and felt that this methodology was certainly ingenious!

Now, due to the favored pine nut fish, Yueqiong Tower was crowded with prospects every single day. It was even busier throughout supper time. Not solely the folks from Tengyun City but additionally many individuals from the whole Nanming Metropolis got here right here due to its popularity. These prospects who couldn’t discover a seat finally had to decide on to eat at different eating places. Over time, Liu Wen was fearful that they may not come again.

Now with the addition of bitter plum soup, even those that couldn’t eat the pine nut fish may have a style and expertise the deliciousness of Yueqiong Tower. This manner, he didn’t have to fret about them going to different eating places within the quick time period. Ultimately, they’d come again to eat right here.

Furthermore, bitter plum soup was a refreshing and appetizing drink. He had simply drunk a small cup and couldn’t assist however wish to eat one thing. In the long term, the enterprise within the store would undoubtedly enhance!

However Liu Wen had even higher ambitions than Cheng Yun. He wished to take the high-end route and earn the enterprise of the rich. Usually, simply charging a tea price contained in the store would value eight yuan. Since bitter plum soup was such factor, after a dialogue, they lastly priced the bitter plum soup at ten yuan per jar and 4 yuan per cup. It could be break up evenly between Yueqiong Tower and the Cheng brothers.

After every part was settled, Cheng Bao’er’s thoughts was nonetheless dizzy. Prior to now, they couldn’t earn a lot in a month, and even self-sufficiency was tough. However now, a drink that could possibly be completed in just a few sips could possibly be offered for the exorbitant value of ten yuan per jar!

Right away, his perspective on bitter plum soup utterly modified, and he checked out his elder brother with admiration.

After discussing the bitter plum soup, Liu Wen rubbed his palms and requested Cheng Yun if he had any good concepts just lately.

Cheng Yun smiled and stated, “There aren’t any new sizzling dishes in the intervening time, however I specifically ready some pickled greens so that you can style right this moment.” As he stated that, he introduced the jar of bitter and crisp radishes to the desk.

“Pickled greens…” Liu Wen’s tone sounded a bit dissatisfied, however he nonetheless gave face and stated, “Alright, I’ll give it a strive.”

To be strict, the crispy pickled radish made by Cheng Yun wasn’t actually something particular. It simply occurred that a big radish was grown earlier, and on such a sizzling day, he didn’t really feel like consuming stewed radish. So he determined to make crispy and scrumptious pickled radish.

At this second, the waiter who had been instructed by Liu Wen introduced a number of plates of pastries to the desk. To make sure that the boss and esteemed company had sufficient to eat, the kitchen additionally ready a big bowl of noodle soup, created from a well-stocked pig’s trotter broth with some chopped inexperienced onions on high, wanting extremely appetizing.

Cheng Yun had arrived early and Liu Wen had been busy attending to company, so neither of them had eaten a lot. Cheng Yun had simply had two cups of bitter plum soup, and now his abdomen was growling.

Liu Wen instantly served himself a small bowl of noodle soup and stated, “I haven’t eaten something but, you all assist yourselves, no must deal with yourselves as company.”

The dishes at Yueqiong Tower have been generously portioned and made with recent elements. Simply the aroma alone was mouthwatering. After taking two bites of the noodles, Liu Wen felt heat spreading all through his physique.

However with the beneficiant parts, it additionally grew to become a bit greasy. After just a few bites, Liu Wen put down his chopsticks and casually drank just a few sips of water from the cup on the desk.

He smacked his lips and felt that he nonetheless hadn’t relieved the greasiness. When he noticed the 2 jars of bitter plum soup on the desk, his eyes lit up. “Hey, Cheng-Ge’er, give me one other cup of bitter plum soup. The noodles are scrumptious, however they’re a bit greasy. It’ll be excellent along with your bitter plum soup.”

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yun didn’t budge on the request and continued calmly tinkering with the small clay pot.

He took a pair of fresh chopsticks, picked up some radish strips from the clay pot, and positioned them on a small plate. Then he pushed the plate in direction of Liu Wen and stated, “Brother Liu, do that.”

Liu Wen raised an eyebrow, not understanding what Cheng Yun was as much as, however he nonetheless adopted his directions and took a chunk.

He picked up a young and white radish strip that seemed prefer it hadn’t been cooked but. His face couldn’t assist however present a little bit of disdain, “Can this actually be eaten? I’ve eaten uncooked radish earlier than, and it made my mouth so spicy I couldn’t open it. Don’t trick me, okay?”

“You’ll know when you strive it,” Cheng Yun stated.

With a touch of belief in Cheng Yun, Liu Wen reluctantly bit into the radish strip.

He chewed on the radish strip with a wrinkled face. After two seconds, his eyes all of a sudden widened, and he seemed on the radish strip in shock.

Then he took one other chunk, and his expression went from doubt to astonishment to please. He completed one piece and couldn’t assist however decide up one other, saying, “Cheng-Ge’er, this white radish of yours is sort of fascinating! Why didn’t I consider making it this fashion earlier than?”

Seeing his satisfaction, Cheng Yun stated, “Really, the strategy is sort of easy. As soon as it, it’s nothing particular.”

He rapidly defined the elements and the method required for making it, saying, “In addition to white radish, you should utilize the identical cooking methodology for different greens as effectively, like cucumber, mustard greens, and garlic. It’s simple to make and has low manufacturing prices. It’s good for relieving greasiness in the course of the summer time.”

Liu Wen listened attentively from begin to end and felt that Cheng Yun was his cash tree. However after pondering for a second, he grew to become fearful once more, “Your thought is nice, however this type of small dish can at most be a aspect dish, not as substantial because the chilly dishes we had earlier than. How can I earn cash from it?”

Cheng Yun smiled and stated, “There are lots of methods to earn cash; it simply will depend on how you consider it.”

“Oh?” Liu Wen posed in a listening posture and stated, “Inform me about it.”

Cheng Yun proposed, “I can consider two methods. First, like what you simply did, provide it as a complimentary aspect dish freed from cost when introducing it to the market. Then steadily begin charging for it, including a penny for every extra small plate. If folks strive it and discover it good, a penny isn’t costly, and they’re going to willingly pay for it.”

“Second,” Cheng Yun continued, “we will customise a batch of small clay pots and promote various kinds of pickled greens individually, instantly imprinting Yueqiong Tower’s title on the pots. Whether or not folks purchase them to eat at residence or as items, they’ll see the Yueqiong Tower brand at a look. This manner, it should additionally contribute to selling the popularity of Yueqiong Tower.”

Beforehand, when Liu Wen talked about opening branches and steadily increasing the enterprise to the capital, Cheng Yun had already contemplated this situation. Easy methods to set up his personal title and create a novel model brand was essential. This method was widespread sooner or later, however folks on this period didn’t have a powerful model consciousness. The strategy Cheng Yun steered was the place having a private brand grew to become the easiest way to advertise a product.

Liu Wen was surprised by Cheng Yun’s proposal, feeling as if he had been enlightened. Along with his eager enterprise sense, he immediately understood the potential advantages of this method. He utterly forgot about breakfast, his face turning crimson with pleasure. He grabbed Cheng Yun’s hand tightly and exclaimed, “You might be really my benefactor!”

Yang Hongjin, who had been holding again for some time, couldn’t stand it anymore. He didn’t care if there have been different folks current and rushed ahead, snatching Cheng Yun and embracing him tightly, obvious at Liu Wen as in the event that they have been enemies.

Cheng Yun, who felt like he hadn’t carried out something: “…”
