After thinking about it, the Xiao family has not moved to Jiuli Village for a long time, but their high-profile approach has indeed offended some people. The latest one is Director Luo, and the rumored midwife... Don't think she
After thinking about it, Tang Zangyue knew from other people's mouth that the midwife's temperament was not that generous. Otherwise, this skill would not be passed down to this day. Once her medical skills are spread, it will have an impact on the midwife's interests.
, even if the impact is not deep, the other party will inevitably be concerned about it across thousands of mountains and rivers.
Next is the kimchi business.
Because of Jiuli Village's consideration for her medical skills, people from other villages have followed suit and set up stalls in the town to steal business.
If the kimchi business is so easy, wouldn't everyone be able to make a lot of money? But the market is so big, and everyone can make money = the market is saturated, and then it will be a matter of survival of the fittest.
Why is Tang Zangyue so short-sighted?
If it weren’t for Aunt Liu’s excellent craftsmanship, or if she had lived in later generations for more than thirty years, eaten a lot of delicacies in big cities and small counties, and felt that Aunt Liu had talent, how could she encourage Aunt Liu to start this business?
Are you still running for it?
Sure enough, the companies in the ring imitated the Xiao family's kimchi tasting method, and offered as much as you bought for free, as well as the kimchi water as a base, and they did have customers at the beginning. Compared with the Xiao family, their family is in
In terms of price, one pound is cheaper than one or two cents.
But in the food industry, who doesn’t rely on taste to retain customers?
The price at Xiao's is one or two cents more expensive, but their kimchi is really delicious, unlike those newly opened ones that only have a salty taste.
The Xiao family's kimchi has a light salty taste, not to mention a spicy taste, and an indescribable taste. If Tang Zangyue could describe it, it tastes like pickled pepper water.
The kimchi water from those companies is used to irrigate the ground, and the vegetables, fruits and vegetables are too salty, let alone eaten by people, even for cooking... Then there is no need to sprinkle salt with the kimchi water. I don't know about these companies.
Where does the kimchi seller get so much salt?
When I was a new customer, I always felt that buying the kimchi from these restaurants was not as good as making it myself, so I continued to be a repeat customer of the Xiao family, and it only cost a few cents more.
After learning that her business with the town's restaurants had failed, the most disappointed person was Aunt Liu.
Tang Zangyue saw her deep in thought and thought she was falling into self-blame. Tang Zangyue explained nonchalantly: "Before, I was still thinking about how to deal with the fact that the miso business has really cooperated with the Bai Dong family. In the future, our Xiao family will open our own restaurant.
This cooperative relationship? Now it’s good, it can save you the trouble.”
However, Aunt Liu regained her composure, and what was on her face was not blaming herself, but the whereabouts of the miso: "Old madam, I have made more than a dozen jars of miso in the backyard, what should I do with it? And can you return the jar after you ordered it?"
"Of course I won't return it. This is what I want to discuss with you. Once the soybean paste is fermented, I will find a place to store it, and a small portion will be sold in bulk at the market, selling for fifteen cents per pound.
As for the stored part, when you open a restaurant and your business gets busy and you don’t have time to do this, the stored part will come in handy and save you some worries."
Aunt Liu: "...fifteen cents, isn't it a bit expensive?"
Tang Zangyue shook her head, "If we discuss cooperation with Bai Dongjia, I plan to sell the deal for twelve cents per catty, which is equivalent to small profits but quick turnover. After all, the production process is indeed more laborious, and selling in bulk will definitely be more expensive, otherwise I'm sorry
The cost of manpower, material resources and renting land. Let’s see how much we can sell at that time. If it doesn’t work, we won’t sell it in pieces. It would be good to produce and sell by ourselves and have a monopoly.”
Anyway, I didn’t expect it to be sold in bulk.
After the discussion, Sister Ling did not go to the village to play in the afternoon. Instead, she mysteriously shared the news she had learned with Tang Zangyue: "Grandma, do you know what happened in the village last night?"
Tang Zangyue leaned her head cooperatively and asked, "What happened?"
"Uncle Xiaoliu and his brother got into a fight——"
Um?
Tang Zangyue's eyes fell on Xiao Yuenong, who nodded and said: "Mother, there are five brothers above Wang Xiaoliu, and they all have different ideas. I heard that there was a fight last night because of the things our Xiao family brought back...
Mother, can Wang Xiaoliu still be used?"
Tang Zangyue raised her eyes and said, "Why do you ask? Are you afraid of trouble?"
"……yes."
Tang Zangyue: "Is he slacking off at work, or is his little wife not good at embroidery?"
"None of them." On the contrary, Wang Xiaoliu worked very hard, and his wife was also very good at embroidery.
"If that's the case, why should his family be implicated?" Tang Zangyue paused and said: "Xiao Wu, our Xiao family is just exiled, it's not that we are incapable. You are worried that our Xiao family will be affected and will not be able to get up.
Backhand power? You look down on your grandmother and your two brothers too much."
Xiao Yuenong lowered her eyes, and heard Tang Zangyue say again: "That's right. I have been selling miserably for a long time, and my family has believed it. Xiaowu, you are still young, don't worry about this, you can grow up happily like Sister Ling."
, if you are still so insecure when you are older, grandma will tell you more things, okay?"
Xiao Yuenong nodded.
That's what she said, but she had to deal with the Wang family that made Xiao Yuenong uneasy.
So when Wang Xiaoliu returned from dinner, Tang Zangyue chatted with him alone for a few words.
Tang Zangyue got straight to the point: "Xiao Liu, you also see that our Xiao family is incompatible with Jiuli Village, right?"
Wang Xiaoliu nodded hesitantly, and then heard her say again: "Then you must have vaguely heard that our Xiao family is a commoner who was exiled here?"
The alarm bell rang in Wang Xiaoliu's heart. He didn't dare to say anything, for fear that if he said one wrong word, he would lose his job. After losing it, where could he find another meat-and-potatoes guy? When he returned to Wang's house, he wouldn't be able to do it.
Being ridiculed and despised by other brothers and sisters-in-law? Especially after what happened last night, they might be stumbled in private. Even if parents want to help, they will have to weigh their future pension and money so as not to offend everyone.
Fang, choose to be the peacemaker.
Of course, these were what Mei Niang came up with after discussing with him after returning to the house last night. The consequences of the collapse of the Xiao family or the abandonment of the couple.
Tang Zangyue: "I guess you and your wife know the situation of our Xiao family? It's already difficult to make a living. If something happens again... Xiaoliu, look at our Xiao family, we are so old.
Xiaoxiao, how many of them can come forward to help? Brother Lu is the only one who has some strength. My bastard son, if something happens to him, he will wet his pants.
Our Xiao family cannot afford such trouble."
Wang Xiaoliu held it in for a long time, until his face turned red.
Tang Zangyue: "If anything happens, just tell me."
Wang Xiaoliu: "Old madam, do you still have a son?"
"???Isn't it just Chengri who works with you, Brother Lu, and Brother Li, that bastard?"
"..." He thought it was an old servant of the Xiao family.
Several times, he asked that person whether he was exiled to this place with the Xiao family because he was not married?
The other person didn't answer, just looked at him with an incomprehensible expression.
It turns out... he is the old lady's son.
I can't see it, I really can't see it.
Every time he saw the Xiao family enjoying themselves, he was the only one looking forward to returning home and sharing the joy with Mei Niang, as well as the lonely figure outside the picture who was enjoying themselves.
He was still curious at the time, why the old servant didn't integrate into the Xiao family since he seemed quite loyal.
