Chapter 196 Negotiations

The shop assistant served them tea, some desserts, and secretly took two halva for Xiao Ayu before leaving.

Xiao Ayu beckoned to the second shopkeeper secretly, took out a wild fruit from his pocket, and stuffed it into his cloth pocket while the shopkeeper was leaving.

The shop assistant smiled at her and reached out to close the door of the private room.

"Yesterday I was thinking that the little guy came to me to negotiate alone, I'm afraid he was inspired by his family. Now I don't think so." Chen Yuan took the initiative to start the conversation.

Mrs. Wang followed his intentions and said, "This baby in our family has been pampered since he was a child, and he does things casually, but his heart is good. If there was something offended yesterday, the old man is here to apologize to you."

"The old man's words are serious, Ayu is a well-behaved little girl. It's too late for me to like her, so how can I be offended by her. Come to think of it, my wife will give birth in two months. I think, if I can have a daughter like Ayu, I am afraid that I will have no regrets in this life.”

Mrs. Wang smiled very sincerely: "That's the truth."

If others praise Xiao Ayu, Mrs. Wang will accept it all, and she will never be humble.

After Chen Yuan finished praising Xiao Ayu, Mrs. Wang also praised him. Chen Yuan was young and promising, and at first glance, he was a person who did great things.

Only Xiao Ayu was worried, didn't Ama come to Uncle Chen to talk about the store? Why are they still praising themselves here?

Little Ayu asked in his heart, "Elf, why are they talking about me? Are they trying to sell Ayu?"

【Pfft, of course not】

[You can understand it as business mutual praise, that is, both sides praise each other, and then open the topic, don’t you think they are talking about the store now? 】

Soon they got down to business, Chen Yuan said his plan, 800 taels of silver is also very high.

Mrs. Wang certainly knows.

But Mrs. Wang said, "If it were another store, 800 taels of silver is already a sky-high price. I'm afraid that if I go to Wanning City to buy a recipe for a steamed bun store, it won't be able to sell for 800 taels, but the shopkeeper Chen has a heart."

Because he didn't know what job Chen Yuan held, Mrs. Wang called him the shopkeeper directly, and Chen Yuan didn't deny it.

It doesn't matter what the title is anyway.

"The old man knows the goods. Indeed, we have gone to Wanning City to receive the recipe before, and there are 10 taels of silver, so it's worth it."

Chen Yuan also said that she was more optimistic about Wangjia Baozipu, and even felt that the practice of this Xiaolongbao could be popularized throughout Dachang.

can also be regarded as, their royal family has made a contribution to Dachang Kingdom.

But Mrs. Wang refused to eat the pie, and said lightly: "800 taels is indeed high enough, but if it is only at this price, the old man and his family will decide not to sell it. As for whether the steamed bun shop can be opened for a longer period of time, can the steamed buns be sold? Selling further, we are not worried about that.”

The big deal is that the steamed buns go out of business, and their Lao Wang family can't starve to death.

Chen Yuan was really surprised, 800 taels was the highest price he could offer, and Ayu's credit was in it.

"Can the old man inform you? Why don't you want to sell it? Did Chen offend you?"

Mrs. Wang shook her head: "That's not true. If the shopkeeper Chen is free, it's better to listen to the old man to talk about business, and it will be regarded as an axe."

Chen Yuan's expression became more solemn: "I would like to hear the details."

Mrs. Wang said: "Presumably the shopkeeper Chen is not from this county. Listening to the accent, it should be not far from the outer domain. The land in the outer domain is different from the land in the Dachang Kingdom, especially the cultivation of barley and wheat, the yield is not high, so their The noodles on the side are very scarce. Not to mention our family's Xiao Long Bao, ordinary steamed buns and steamed buns can also be sold at sky-high prices there, and ordinary people can't afford them. It is an extra rarity. Is what the old man said right?"

"What the old man said is true, it is true, but if you want to sell it directly to them, it is not as simple as you think. There are so many twists and turns, and you have to pay for it."

When Chen Yuan heard what Mrs. Wang said, she knew that this old man was by no means an ordinary peasant woman.

In this world, women can go so far, which is more worthy of admiration than men.

As a result, his expression also seemed more respectful, omitting the last bit of contempt.

Mrs. Wang didn't know Chen Yuan's thoughts, so she only said: "These are the things that shopkeeper Chen has to consider. I think shopkeeper Chen bought our family's recipe. I'm afraid that he will push it away in Dachangguo first, and then go there at the same time. Outland try. The neighboring countries are not as good as Dachang except the West Wind Kingdom, and they have a lot of respect for Dachang. Manager Chen himself is a Dachang countryman. If you do business with other countries, it is not as difficult as you said."

Before Chen Yuan could speak, Mrs. Wang continued: "You must be thinking, this is your own business, and we don't have to worry about that. But what I want to tell you is that our old Wang family The same is true for the future development path. Even if we don’t sell it to you, our steamed buns will definitely go to Dachang in the next few years. So, Mr. Chen still thinks that we are willing to sell this recipe for 800 taels?”

These words were not said by Chen Yuan first, but by Mrs. Wang, which shows that this is the vision of an old lady.

Since the old lady was able to speak in such detail, it means that there was indeed a careful plan, not something taken for granted.

The old lady is extraordinary at first glance, knowledgeable, cultivated, well-spoken, and logical.

She said that Chen Yuan didn't doubt that he could bring Lao Wang's family into that state.

Thinking about it now, Chen Yuan feels that 800 taels is really too little.

If the old Wang family can really make that kind of scale, let alone 800 taels, 800 taels a day is too little.

Chen Yuan said with a wry smile: "Old man, what you said can't be accomplished in 10 years or 8 years, but the immediate benefits can be directly seized.

With these 800 taels, you can also develop locally. I can assure you that at least after I buy Fangzi, I will not compete with your family for business, and even if you can open your own branches throughout the territory, we can compete fairly, so, is it feasible? "

The old lady Wang still shook her head: "800 taels really can't make me relax. If the price of shopkeeper Chen is still the same, then we don't have to talk about it today."

Chen Yuan looked at Xiao Ayu sitting next to him, looking at him eagerly, feeling a little soft-hearted for a while.

In fact, if on weekdays, someone is so aggressive and wants to raise the price by himself, then Chen Yuan will definitely leave.

There are so many businesses in the world, and their Chen family doesn’t have to do this steamed bun business.

There are too many ways to make money. Even if he gives up this bun, he can still buy other recipes. When he does, it will be another kind of income.

But seeing Xiao Ayu, Chen Yuan said to himself in his heart: "Forget it, let's repay the little benefactor, such a lovely Ayu, I really can't bear to disappoint her."

The little guy can come to himself to talk business alone, and he is definitely willing to sell it to him.

Chen Yuan looked at little Ayu and said to Mrs. Wang, "Old man, since that's the case, I want to ask. Yesterday, Ayu told me that the reason why your Wang family's steamed buns sell so well is actually a secret."

Mrs. Wang's expression changed suddenly.
