Chapter 38: Inch by Foot
"Uncle Wu, I'm willing to save you some face, it's all for the sake of my deceased father, you don't want to make an inch!" Liu Qingshao's eyes seemed to have a layer of ice ballast quenched, and it was so cold that it was seeping.
"Qingshao, everyone is from the same village, give Uncle Wu a chance!" When the people in the same village heard that Liu Qingshao was coming, they all came to see the excitement.
"He deliberately used rotten vegetable leaves to prevaricate me, violating the contract we signed that day, and I have the right to cancel the cooperation!" The ancients didn't attach much importance to the deed, but Liu Qingshao had already prepared for both in order to prevent accidents.
"Whoever called the dish will not be rotten, we picked it off in advance and put it at home, it is inevitable that there will be damage, and you are not short of silver in your hand, why bother so much?" The people of the village were extremely dissatisfied with her approach.
They all felt that Liu Qingshao should not be compared.
"I've decided on this, I don't need to say more!" Liu Qingshao glanced at them and said.
"Green peony girl, you see that we have to go to the field every day to pick vegetables, and then clean them up and sell them to you, which has delayed a lot of time, can you give us two more cents per catty?" When everyone saw that he had made up his mind, they simply opened the topic.
Uncle Wu doesn't have much to do with them, and they are most concerned about their own interests.
"The price I gave you is already higher than that in the town, and it can't be more!" Liu Qingshao refused without hesitation.
These people are cheap and obedient, which makes Liu Qingshao disgusted.
"Our dishes are the freshest, and if you don't increase the price, we'll have to find a new buyer!" The villagers' tone was very strong, and they thought that Liu Qingshao would definitely compromise.
After all, without the ingredients they provided, Liu Qingshao's shop would have to close.
"Okay, you can sell it to others, I will not stop you!" She turned around and left.
After Liu Qingshao returned home, her face was still ugly.
Xiao Hanyin came back from the town and found her sitting alone by the door with a frown, feeling a little puzzled.
He came with Liu Qingshao just now, but someone in the shop made trouble, so Liu Qingshao asked him to deal with it.
He has good skills, although he is not very old, but he is very imposing and can be calm.
After Xiao Hanyin sent the troublemakers to the county office, he came back immediately.
"What happened?" Xiao Hanyin poured a glass of water and handed it to her.
"The people in the village want to sit on the ground and raise the price, so I have a bit of an argument with them, and I won't buy their ingredients anymore!" After Liu Qingshao drank some water, she felt much better.
She always thought that she could cooperate well with the people in the village.
As a result, in just a few months, their appetite was raised.
"What, how dare they embarrass you?" When Xiao Hanyin learned about this, he was very angry.
If it weren't for Liu Qingshao, their lives wouldn't have changed at all.
Who would have thought that they were not only grateful, but also wanted to force Liu Qingshao to give a high price, which was shameless.
"People's hearts are fickle!" Liu Qingshao spit out four words in her mouth, but she clearly revealed her mood at this time.
"Since they don't want to cooperate well, let's change people......" As soon as Xiao Hanyin's voice fell, he remembered what happened before.
Many vegetable vendors and merchants in the town refused to cooperate with Aunt Lin under the obstruction of Aunt Lin.
Now, Liu Qingshao has rejected the villagers' requests, and the issue of ingredients is once again at an impasse.
Xiao Han wanted to help her, but he didn't know where to start......
"Don't worry, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and I will find another way to deal with the ingredients!" Liu Qingshao comforted.
"There are so many people in Nanshui Village, and none of them are willing to keep it as it is?" Xiao Hanyin did not give up.
He felt that some people in the village were still very simple.
"Perhaps, but I don't care!" Except for a few women who kept raising the price, everyone else didn't say a word, obviously deliberately.
Liu Qingshao didn't want to do business with the people in the village anymore.
"Is the shop going to close tomorrow?" While Xiao Hanyin was annoyed that the villagers were ungrateful, he felt more and more sorry for Liu Qingshao.
She always silently resisted the slander of the villagers alone, and tried her best to maintain the business of the shop.
Xiao Han was angry that he couldn't help her......
"Although Aunt Lin is a little powerful, she can't cover the sky with one hand, let's find a way to find other businessmen who sell vegetables before making a decision!" She didn't want to close the shop until she had to.
The business of the barbecue shop is very good, and it will lose dozens of taels of silver a day after it closes, and Liu Qingshao is a little distressed.
However, if she can't find the ingredients, she can't do anything.
Xiao Hanyin couldn't bear to be disappointed, so he proposed to split up the merchants who could provide the ingredients.
Although it was not early, both of them wanted to solve the matter of ingredients as soon as possible, so they rushed to the town again.
This time, Xiao Hanyin went to some vendors who bought vegetables from the villagers and went back to resell, hoping to temporarily buy some ingredients to meet tomorrow's needs.
He was lucky, he happened to meet a farmer who was selling vegetables with a burden, and after Xiao Hanyin asked the price, he simply bought them all.
The farmer's vegetables are very fresh and the price is very fair, he does not make a living by selling vegetables, and naturally he does not know Aunt Lin.
Xiao Hanyin was willing to buy them all, and he diligently delivered the dishes directly to the shop.
Later, he and Liu Qingshao went to the butcher in the town to buy a lot of pork, as well as hooves.
The ingredients to be used tomorrow are barely scraped together, and as for the chickens, ducks and fish, there are still some leftovers that they bought before that have not been killed, and they are fed in the backyard......
The next day, Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao went to buy ingredients again.
They get up early in the morning to buy the vegetables they need from the farmers. 315 Chinese Network
As a result, when Xiao Hanyin went to the place where he bought vegetables yesterday, he accidentally ran into the villagers of Nanshui Village.
After Liu Qingshao refused them, no one wanted the family's dishes, so they had to bring the ingredients to the town to sell.
However, they had never done business before, and when they arrived in the town, they realized that selling vegetables was more difficult than they thought.
"Xiao Hanyin, are you here to buy vegetables?" When the villagers saw him, they walked straight over.
"What does it have to do with you?" Xiao Hanyin said coldly.
These people united to pit Liu Qingshao, and his heart was full of anger, and he didn't stop talking to them at all.
"Why don't you give us more silver, and we'll continue to sell you the vegetables, so that we can both save trouble, what do you think?" They thought about it, instead of working hard here and not making a few bucks, it was better to sell the vegetables to Liu Qingshao.
"There are a lot of vegetable sellers in the town, and there is no shortage of you!" Xiao Han said expressionlessly.
Everyone thought that he was young and easy to fool, so they continued to persuade him, and he said a lot of empty words ramblingly, just to achieve his goal.
It's a pity that they misestimated Xiao Hanyin.
"How did you bully Qing Shao yesterday, don't think I don't know, I didn't knock on the door and it was already considered merciful!" Xiao Han's hidden eyes were full of anger.
"The money she gave us is too low, and we have the right to choose not to sell it to her!" Losing people does not lose the battle, he thought that Xiao Hanyin was a soft persimmon and easy to bully, but he ran into a hard stubble.
However, he didn't want to admit defeat, after all, in his eyes, Xiao Hanyin was a fourteen-year-old child, and he couldn't make any waves.
Xiao Han was annoyed, grabbed his clothes, and picked up the whole person.
He was a man in the prime of life, and he was treated like this by Xiao Hanyin, and he lost face.
"Let go of me!" He glared at Xiao Hanyin with resentment on his face, eager to kill him.
"In the future, if I hear the arrangement of green peony again, I will beat you all over the ground to find teeth!" Xiao Hanyin threatened.
"I was wrong, you let me down!" The hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, he decisively admits it.
"Remember what I said, otherwise I wouldn't mind coming to my door to teach you how to be!" This sentence was said by Liu Qingshao unintentionally.
Xiao Hanyin remembered it when he thought it was interesting......
Everyone was frightened by his strength, and they retreated, not daring to trouble him anymore.
Xiao Hanyin saw that they looked terrified, and the corners of his mouth raised a mocking arc.
A group of cowardly as rats, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, if he accompanied Liu Qingshao yesterday, he would never let them shout wantonly.
"It's terrible, he's really only fourteen?" After Xiao Hanyin left, several villagers in Nanshui Village gathered together with palpitations.
"No wonder Liu Qingshao is so arrogant, it turns out that someone is backing her!"
"It's just a fatherless and motherless orphan, even if he has the ability, it's not a dog raised by Liu Qingshao's side!"
"Even if they are dogs, they are better off than us!"
"What, you want to use Liu Qingshao as a cow and a horse?"
"Just give me the silver, I don't mind holding her!"
“……”
Several people stayed for most of the day, and there was still more than half of the food left, and they felt very uncomfortable.
After putting in the effort but not getting the return they wanted, it is natural to feel unbalanced in their hearts.
In the following days, the villagers of Nanshui Village never came to look for Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao again.
However, because Xiao Han is indifferent, and he has a calm face all day long, he doesn't like to talk to others, and he looks like he rejects people thousands of miles away, so there are some rumors in the village.
They were all speculating whether Xiao Hanyin was sick, so they didn't communicate with others, and they didn't allow others to approach.
They didn't know these rumors, and at this time, Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin were all focused on finding a suitable food supplier.
In recent days, they have gone directly to the food shop to buy the ingredients they need, but each time the amount of food they bought back is not enough, and the barbecue shop closes two hours earlier than usual.
The customers who often come to the shop to eat barbecue feel that they are doing less.
However, Liu Qingshao had no choice but to find an excuse to temporarily stabilize the guests.
Her two food shops are short of ingredients, but fortunately, the mixed juice business has been good, and other people in the food business have not been able to make the same flavor of juice.
The juice in Liu Qingshao's shop is still unique, attracting a lot of customers......
After searching for a few days, Liu Qingshao finally found someone willing to cooperate with her in another town.
However, the man put forward a condition, and Liu Qingshao did not immediately agree.
The other party didn't force her, after all, she wanted to make money in business with harmony.
They provided ingredients to Liu Qingshao, and they never made a profit, and their request involved her business, and she should consider it carefully.
"I want to go back and discuss it with the others, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow!" In fact, Liu Qingshao had already made a decision in her heart, but she didn't say it.
What is too easy to get, others often do not cherish too much.
Liu Qingshao knew this truth very well, so she deliberately delayed it for a while.
However, after she went back, she still told Xiao Hanyin about it directly.
"Han Yin, there is someone in the town next door who is willing to supply us with ingredients, but he offered to let me provide some dishes for their shop, what do you think?" Liu Qingshao treats him as family.
She felt that Xiao Hanyin should know about this matter!
