Chapter 937: If the benefits are sufficient, we can cooperate
The expanded food supply was not enough, which was not what she wanted to see.
"Well, that's fine. Let's just use it as a promotion this year. There was a disaster in the south this year, and now even the grain prices in Beijing are much higher than before. If there are no banquets, our family's food is also a little worse. The cost of living is high, and many people are tightening their belts. Our family is no exception. Since I have this hot and sour noodle you made, I have to have a portion every day. Just this small ingredient, in an ordinary family, can make a big pot of soup. The wholesale price is not expensive, even if ordinary people buy it home, they can still afford it. We can also have a treat occasionally. There will definitely be many people who envy our workshop in the future."
Tan Xiaomei's eyes and eyebrows were curved when she smiled.
"When the grain comes down, we will stockpile it early and have people go to the village to collect it directly. If the price offered by the grain shop is right, we will buy it directly from the grain merchant. When the grain is ready in the future, we can also grow it ourselves." Gu Yao explained all her ideas to Tan Xiaomei.
"Well, this year it's basically difficult for ordinary people to find food reserves, and the prices at grain merchants are also very high. Let's do it first this year. If the demand is large, we can also let them provide food themselves, so that we can give them a slightly lower price. What do you think? In exchange for food, can we reduce the pressure on food and save ourselves from looking for it?"
Tan Xiaomei said what was in her mind.
Gu Yao's eyes lit up. It was a good idea to exchange food for it. Not only could they make money, but they could also save a lot of time buying food or arguing with them.
Their workshop paid them according to the wholesale price from the grain merchants.
Gu Yao smiled and said, "Yes, this is a good idea. Let's do it according to your wishes. We can do it in the early stage and then exchange it for food. When their business is good, they will naturally find a way to collect food. But we can't use this method now." Gu Yao said with a smile.
"Well, we can still buy food ourselves now. Let's not talk about it for now. When it's hard to buy food in the future, if they want goods, we can use this method again. I think it's also very good. There is a little girl here. Her family is in the food business in Beijing. They still have some face among the merchants in Beijing. She is the little girl who doesn't talk much today. She is only about ten years old now. She is relatively young. You can meet her later. The food I contacted was bought from their store."
Tan Xiaomei is in charge of supplying flour to the workshop.
Gu Yao also felt less worried.
"You are talking about Miss Yuan, right? The girl looks very well-behaved. When we go to the opera later, let's go over and chat with her and get to know her." Gu Yao said proactively.
With her current status, she needs to develop more connections in Beijing.
All the connections she has now are related to Tan Xiaomei.
She is now trying hard to make friends with them.
As long as there are benefits among businessmen, and the benefits are sufficient, they will have more opportunities for cooperation.
She now has to seize every opportunity to get to know them.

After lunch, the ladies rested in the guest rooms and continued to listen to opera and chat in the afternoon.
"Let's go to Yuan Qingqing's table and listen to the opera together." Tan Xiaomei pulled Gu Yao over.
Ten-year-old Yuan Qingqing listened to the opera and clapped her hands to the rhythm, looking like an old opera fan.
"Miss Tan, Miss Gu, please sit down and listen together." Yuan Qingqing had a pair of dimples when she smiled. She looked very sweet, like a harmless girl.
"Ms. Yuan, I didn't expect you like this play so much. Did we disturb you by coming here?" Gu Yao said with a smile.
"No, not at all. The reason I can come out of the house and play today is thanks to the party you organized. Usually at home, besides listening to operas at banquets, I learn all kinds of knowledge from my family at home, or I go to the store to study. Now I am taking a break from my busy schedule, and I am very happy!" Yuan Qingqing smiled like a flower.
"It's good to be busy. A busy grain merchant means good business. I heard from Xiaomei that your family is in the grain business and has business all over the country and even abroad. It's really amazing. We also get our grain from you now." Gu Yao directly brought up the topic of grain during the conversation.
"That's because you are taking care of our Yuan family's business. Let's have more opportunities to cooperate in the future." Yuan Qingqing knew that the grain was purchased from their family, so she came to taste it to see what they made that was so delicious.
She ate noodles. Today they made fried noodles, as well as various ways of eating noodles in soup and vermicelli soup. All of them showed that the noodles they made were very successful and everyone said they were delicious.
Gu Yao used super-time and space technology, and the taste is more chewy.
Naturally, it was liked by many people.
If these pampered young ladies who are usually difficult to serve say it’s delicious, then it’s really delicious.
Even if someone learns it secretly, they won’t be able to make the taste they have now.
"During lunch, the young ladies from each family said they wanted to do this business. You see, we are in the grain business. Can our Yuan family do this business? If we can cooperate, we will definitely sell the food made by Sister Gu to China and other countries. I like to eat this food, and I think there will be a huge market for it in the future. Our cooperation is a win-win situation." Ten-year-old Yuan Qingqing looked very experienced when talking about business.
It must be cultivated from a young age to cultivate such an excellent businessman.
"It would be great if we could cooperate in both directions. We'll find a chance to discuss the details of our cooperation," Gu Yao said with a smile.
For the specific details, let them go to the living room of the workshop to discuss them.
When the others saw Gu Yao and Tan Xiaomei, they couldn't sit still anymore. Liu Yuanyuan took the initiative to go to the table where they were. There happened to be an empty stool, so she sat down directly.
She never cared about what others thought, as long as she was happy.
"The food is good. Although the taste is a bit strong, the aroma is really good. Is it the soup? Will the soup taste equally good with other foods, or is it just the vermicelli?" Liu Yuanyuan took a fancy to their sauce, but was not very interested in the vermicelli and noodles.
"That's right. Miss Liu has good vision. The essence lies in the soup. It's the same soup when you eat noodles, just don't add vinegar, it will have a spicy taste. Hot and sour noodles are made by adding vinegar when making vermicelli, and the taste is better. If you eat noodles, you don't need to use vinegar, it will also be delicious. Different foods require different ingredients. If you add vinegar to noodles, it will not taste good." Gu Yao explained one by one.
