Chapter 12: Make a Bid!
Jiang Yun was very skeptical of Jiang Li's decision, you must know that Qianxianglou and Baiweiju are the two major restaurants in Anjing Town, and the mention of Qianxianglou will make people think of Baiweiju.
The reason is also very simple, the two restaurants are separated by a street, the location is close, in order to compete for customers will inevitably form a fierce competition, the relationship is becoming more and more stiff, and there have even been several frictions in order to compete for customers, which is not uncommon in the town.
In the past, Baiweiju's business was not much different from Qianxianglou, but with the death of Baiweiju's boss Lu Yi due to illness, Baiweiju's business has become worse and worse in the past two years under the management of the eldest lady Lu Yiyue, and many people look down on Lu Yiyue as a woman, and feel that she will not be able to support it after a while, and Baiweiju is destined to be swallowed up by Qianxianglou.
The chef was also poached a lot by Qianxianglou in this situation, which further caused the loss of old customers.
"Baiweiju is still not closed, and I don't know how long it will be open."
Jiang Yun analyzed the gap between the two restaurants for the eldest sister, and only hoped that Jiang Liang would change his mind and sell the recipes to Qianxianglou.
However, this is not a problem for Jiang Li.
"The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, since this eldest lady can support the operation of a restaurant on her own, she must have something extraordinary, otherwise Baiweiju would have been swallowed up by Qianxianglou, where can it survive until now."
Jiang Liang smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, everything has me!" You just have to do what I say, it's all right! ”
Seeing this, Jiang Yun could only nod, and accepted the eldest sister's decision.
Jiang Liang straightened his clothes, stepped into the gate of Baiweiju, and saw the shopkeeper coming up.
"Two guest officers, what do you want to eat today?"
Jiang Liang politely smiled at the shopkeeper and directly explained his intentions. "Trouble the second brother, we're not here to eat, we want to talk to your person in charge here about a business."
When the shopkeeper heard this, when he heard that the sisters were not here for dinner, the dry smile that he had originally squeezed out disappeared in an instant, and when he heard that Jiang Liang was here to talk about business, he couldn't help but look them up and down.
I saw that the sisters were dressed in coarse linen clothes, and although the clothes were clean, they could also be seen to be very old. Neither of them had any ornaments on them, they were both dressed as countrymen.
The shopkeeper directly showed a look of contempt, and he was about to drive people away.
"We don't have any business to talk to you about here, let's go!"
With the attitude of the shopkeeper, Jiang Liang didn't wonder why Baiweiju's business had plummeted.
Seeing that the shopkeeper wanted to pick up people, Jiang Li's eyes instantly became fierce, and his momentum changed, and the shopkeeper did not dare to act rashly in an instant.
She knew that the shopkeeper in front of her was the kind of snobbery that respects Luo shirt first and then others, so she simply doesn't say anything polite to the other party.
"Can you afford to delay the important matter of the master's family?"
Jiang Liang saw that the shopkeeper was obviously shocked by her momentum, and seeing that he was hesitant, he added another fire and scolded him.
The shopkeeper didn't expect Jiang Liang to say this, and was taken aback.
He looked at Jiang Liang carefully, and saw that she had an extraordinary temperament, and her speech was a bit domineering, and it was not easy to look at. Although I am still a little reluctant, I am also afraid of offending the wrong person.
After thinking about it, it was just a favor anyway, and it didn't matter much to him whether it was successful or not.
If it really delays the major affairs of the main family, he can't afford it with a little man. So, the shopkeeper immediately changed his attitude, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile on Jiang Li.
"Then, please come with me."
As he spoke, the shopkeeper led the way directly, but he was secretly looking forward to what would happen in a while.
Jiang Yun pulled Jiang Li's sleeve with some worry, and saw the eldest sister smiling at her comfortingly, and her confident appearance also affected her, and she relaxed a little.
The small courtyard at the back of the restaurant is very spacious, and many flowers and plants are planted in the courtyard, which adds a bit of interest, which shows that the main family of Baiwei Ju is an elegant person.
After placing them in a side room, the shopkeeper went to report to the steward, and after a while, he saw him returning with an old man about sixty years old.
The old man had a small goatee and wore a long gown, and he looked less like a merchant than an old pedant.
"I heard from Xiao Er that the two girls want to do business with us Baiweiju? The old man's surname is Sun, and he is the shopkeeper here, I don't know what you are looking for the old man? ”
Shopkeeper Sun's eyes fell on Jiang Liang and Jiang Yun sisters, looking up and down, although they did not show a look of contempt, they obviously didn't believe that the two little girls could do business with Baiweiju.
Jiang Liang saw that Shopkeeper Sun's attitude was quite kind, so he bowed to him slightly, and then replied: "I have seen Shopkeeper Sun, and I have taken the liberty to come to the door to discuss important matters." ”
"Something important?" When Shopkeeper Sun heard this, his face showed a trace of doubt.
What is the important thing for a country girl who has never seen him to find him?
"I want to sell this crystal mooncake to Shopkeeper Sun."
Jiang Liang got straight to the point, and without delay, he directly took out the things and put them in front of him.
"What? Selling mooncakes? Did you hear me right? You little girl is so ignorant, it's not like we can't make moon cakes at Baiweiju......"
Shopkeeper Sun was about to refuse when he heard Jiang Liang's words, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the crystal moon cakes on the table, which had a unique shape, really as transparent as crystal, and the colors of the fillings were different, which attracted his attention at once.
He had never seen this kind of pastry before, and Barilla really couldn't make it.
Previously, when the shopkeeper Sun heard that Jiang Liang was going to sell the moon cakes to Baiweiju, his face suddenly changed. The eldest lady has always wanted to reorganize Barilla, so she also spent a lot of money to hire a chef and buy recipes. However, many people took the initiative to come to the door, but no one could change the business decline of Baiweiju, but it wasted the manpower and material resources of the restaurant, and he felt distressed when he thought about it now.
Because of this, he specially told the shopkeeper not to trust others, and everyone went to Baiweiju, but he didn't expect to meet Jiang Liang today.
The shopkeeper saw that the shopkeeper Sun was impatient, and his heart was not good, for fear of being implicated, he wanted to go up to catch people, but was stopped by the shopkeeper Sun.
"Girl, do you call this pastry crystal mooncake?"
Shopkeeper Sun stared at the plate of crystal mooncakes, with a little doubt on his face, but more curiosity.
Jiang Liang was not surprised to see him show such an expression.
She was completely sure that the dishes she made were unheard of and unseen by the old shopkeeper in front of her.
"Shopkeeper Sun, you can taste the taste before making a decision."
Jiang Liang will not favor one over the other, and take the initiative to remind the shopkeeper Sun to try it before making plans.
Shopkeeper Sun had this intention, and immediately nodded when he heard this, stepped forward and picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.
Suddenly, an unprecedented taste lit up in his eyes, and hope suddenly ignited in his heart.
"Little girl, you can make a price!"
