"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't. ”

Ye Luo shook his head and said: "I think you have also seen some situations on my island, it's not that I can't afford to pay for the workers, but there are no spare houses on the island for those workers to live in, and I don't want other outsiders to live in the place where I live, even if those people are the workers I invited." ”

"Why? If you recruit people, then the output will definitely increase, and you will make more money, right?"

Catherine was slightly disappointed when she heard this.

Recently, the business situation of her catering is really not good, but the competitors have recruited several celebrity chefs as chefs and launched several signature dishes at once, and the performance is rising slowly.

Catherine is also worried about the deterioration of her business these days, and today she suddenly found such a good ingredient, which made her see a glimmer of hope to break out of the predicament, but she didn't expect Ye Luo to tell her that she had no plans to mass produce at all, and she was naturally quite disappointed.

Ye Luo took a deep look at Catherine: "I will not live in a good city, and choose to live on the island in order to enjoy a free and comfortable private space, as for making money, I don't care too much, besides, I am not the kind of person who gives up his original life in order to make money." ”

"......"

Catherine opened her mouth in a hurry, but finally did not say what came to her mouth.

She has her own careful thoughts, if Ye Luo listens to her expansion of production, then she may be able to buy a little from Ye Luo at that time.

After eating those dishes just now, Catherine had a hint of ambition in her heart, and she wanted to eat all the vegetables that had fallen by herself.

It's just that she also understands that this is simply impossible.

Once these dishes are introduced from their own restaurant, then the fame will naturally grow, and there will definitely be many people in other local halls at that time where these dishes come from.

If those people really know that their food comes from here, it is still a question whether they can buy it again.

There are too many people who are richer than her, and she can't afford to compete with them with any more money in her current situation.

Looking at Catherine, who wanted to speak again and again, Ye Luo's voice changed: "Actually, if you don't say it, I know that you plan to make me your stable supplier, otherwise, let's change the way we cooperate, are you interested in cooperating with me?"

When Catherine heard this, she suddenly had a sense of brightness, and said loudly in surprise: "Of course, I am very interested in cooperating with you, but I want to know what kind of cooperation method it is?"

No matter what kind of cooperation it is, it is tantamount to a send-off for her catering.

She knows very well in her heart that this new vegetable is originally for high-end users, and it doesn't hurt to have a small amount, and it is expensive to be scarce!

Its main role is still as the fist product of its own restaurant, to put it bluntly, it is used for signboards.

Ye Luo smiled lightly and said two words: "Monopoly!"

"Monopoly?"

Catherine was stunned for a moment, then asked with a look of sudden realization, "I think I know what you mean, if my guess is correct, you plan to give me full control of the vegetables?"

"That's right. ”

Ye Luo nodded.

Catherine's pretty face suddenly showed a happy look, and then as if she thought of something, Liu Mei frowned lightly: "I don't understand, this kind of cooperation is beneficial to me no matter how you look at it, and it will be more of a loss for you!"

"No, you're wrong, on the surface it looks like I'm at a loss, but in reality I'm not at a loss. ”

Ye Luo explained: "The way I cooperate with you is that I will only provide you with vegetables for one restaurant in the future, and in contrast, how much your restaurant sells in the future, you will give me half of it, simply put, I will contribute the ingredients, you will contribute, and the money you earn will be fifty-fifty." ”

For Ye Luo's way of cooperation, Catherine couldn't make a decision right away.

If it's only five or five points, it's fair for both parties no matter how you look at it, but she still asked the doubts in her heart: "Sounds great, but I want to know if you provide the ingredients for free, or do I need to pay for them?"

"It's not nonsense, of course it's free, if you spend money to buy it, what kind of cooperation is it called?" Ye Luo said angrily.

I am not a 'leaf peel', how can I do such a thing that lacks morality?

He really cooperated with Catherine, and he wouldn't do the kind of black-hearted business that made the other party spend money on ingredients, and later gave him half of the money he earned.

"If that's the case......"

After Catherine heard from Ye Luo's mouth that what she was most worried about would not happen, she stretched out her hand to Ye Luo without hesitation: "Then, happy cooperation!"

"It was a pleasure to work with. ”

Ye Luo also smiled and reached out to shake Catherine's hand gently, and immediately let go.

Catherine, who reached a deeper cooperation with Ye Luo, looked at Ye Luo with a blank eye, her beautiful eyes full of anticipation: "So, when will you be able to provide me with new vegetables at most?"

Ye Luo thought for a while, and said: "Now there are only two kinds of radishes that can be provided, cucumbers, eggplants, and tomatoes, these are common varieties on the market, but the quality can definitely be a lot higher, the yield is about twenty catties a day, only add up to one hundred catties, and one hundred catties of vegetables plus other side dishes are enough to support the sales of your restaurant for a day." ”

Ye Luo's purpose in planting these vegetables is to earn prestige, but because the price of vegetable seeds in the [Super Mall] is too expensive, he doesn't dare to grow too many at once.

What's more, he knows that no matter how expensive the ingredients are, they will definitely not be more expensive than the good food.

Although he can raise the price of the ingredients, no matter how much he raises it, it is far from being comparable to those restaurants.

Besides, he now has another way to earn prestige, and how much money he has to sell for vegetables is no longer much for him.

After all, the price at which vegetables are sold is finally converted into prestige, but it reaches a terrifying level of 10,000 to one.

Originally, he did not plan to continue to grow this area, nor did he want to expand the planting area.

But Catherine's arrival made him see a different way, anyway, vegetables have to be sold, the kind of one-time money can be swept away, and another way of trickling water.

Although it is said that as long as he sells the vegetables, he can get the money to buy vegetables immediately, which is a short-term nature, after all, once he sells the vegetables, it has nothing to do with him at all.

The latter, on the other hand, is a long-term income that can be earned every day, and by the time the bill is settled, the income will definitely far exceed the former.

There is no doubt that Ye Luo will definitely choose the latter.

As for the yield, the leaf drop will definitely not expand, and the variety of vegetables will definitely increase.

Once there is more variety of vegetables, then his workload increases!

While ensuring the quantity, but also taking into account the yield, the leaves do not have enough energy to take care of both, so they can only choose one side.

Catherine listened to this number, thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It's really not much, but it should be enough to solve our urgent needs." ”

A kind of twenty catties a day, adding up to a total of about 100 catties, it doesn't seem to be much, but her restaurant is not that kind of large-scale restaurant chain, there is only one store, a hundred catties of vegetables for a restaurant can not be used up in a day, and even some restaurants only use a few catties of vegetables a day.

However, she felt that as long as the vegetables were used for a limited supply, they would definitely not be used up at first, and by the time the restaurant gained popularity, it would barely be enough.

It's true that she has ambitions, but there is a difference in ambitions.

Catherine knew very well in her heart that without Ye Luo's support, no matter how ambitious she was, it would be useless, and her restaurants were almost closing at the moment.

It also made her realize that instead of developing her own restaurant into a chain restaurant, it is better to open only one restaurant.

Generally, chain restaurants are aimed at the kind of people with low-end consumption, while restaurants for high-end people generally have only one store.

To put it bluntly, the consumption of high-end restaurants is very high, and the amount of dishes is a little less than that of other restaurants.

Of course, this is harmless at all, and scarcity is expensive!

The amount of Western food is known for being small, and it cannot compete with Chinese food in terms of quantity.

At this moment, Catherine's mind was full of thoughts related to the restaurant, and after finally suppressing these thoughts, she asked Ye Luo again: "Then what about the price, how much should it be set?"

"Naturally, you can be as tall as you can. ”

Ye Luo blurted out without thinking about it: "You have to understand, our ingredients themselves are the best, and the price naturally can't be the same as those restaurants that use ordinary ingredients, if you want to do it, you can make the most high-end, limit the number of products per day, and close when they are sold out!"

"Yes...... Wouldn't that be bad?" Catherine hesitated, "If my restaurant were famous, we could have gone this way, but now that almost all of my restaurants are about to close down, if they reopen, when those old diners come to the door and find that the price has suddenly increased several times, is it too much for them?"

"More or less, it's a blessing for a restaurant to have a loyal group of diners. Ye Luo thought for a while, chuckled and said: "Actually, this is very easy to handle, don't ordinary restaurants have that kind of discounted membership card? ”

Since he decided to bring these vegetables to the market, he is naturally ready to take the high-quality route, and he himself feels that his "super vegetables" are completely worth the price.

Even if Catherine doesn't want to give up on the old diners, she can simply give them a 'special treatment' that is unique to the old diners, even if they can't make money from them, they can earn from other people.

"Okay, then do as you say!" Catherine said impatiently, "I really want to go back and draw up a contract now, and hurry up and sign our contract." ”

Ye Luo laughed, shook his head and said, "Haha, forget the contract, I don't want to use a piece of paper to maintain our relationship." ”

"You just believe me like that, aren't you afraid that I will deceive you or break the contract?" Catherine's heart suddenly warmed, this kind of being 100% trusted made her feel very comfortable, but her face showed a complicated color.

Ye Luo half-jokingly and half-threatening: "Of course, I believe that you who can say such things will definitely not disappoint me, don't forget that I am the supplier of your restaurant, if I find out that you lied to me at that time, then I will find a restaurant to cooperate with at most." ”
