Merchants carry goods back and forth, which can take several months or even a year.
When he comes to Jinqiu County again, the amount of vinegar produced by the vinegar making workshop will definitely meet his needs.
"Shopkeeper Hu is staying." Seeing that Song Changhe had given up, Xia Mingyue opened her mouth to persuade him to stay.
"Does Mrs. Xia have anything else to do?"
"Shopkeeper Hu likes our millet vinegar from Jinqiu County and comes to discuss business. This can be regarded as fate, and this little Rice vinegar is really a rare and high-quality product. If this business is not done, shopkeeper Hu will feel a little regretful." Xia Mingyue said with a smile.
Hu Yuanzhi scratched his ears and said, "That's what happened, but you guys are not jealous enough. There is really no way to do business, and there is nothing we can do about it. To tell the truth that Madam Xia doesn't like to hear, I have been traveling around for several years, and I have taken a fancy to it. There are a lot of good things, either for this reason or for that reason. In the end, there are not many businesses. There are also a lot of regrets here, and this one is no less. "
"Business cannot be forced, but although we don't have so much vinegar at this time, we can supply one-third of the amount within seven days. You might as well take this back first, shopkeeper Hu. ?” We are very happy to win our millet vinegar, but it is still unknown whether we can definitely make a profit from this millet vinegar. We will buy less and go back to explore the road. If the sales are good, we will buy a large amount again. Losing is a way."
Hu Yuanzhi agreed with Xia Mingyue's point of view and nodded slightly, "That's what I said, but I only took away this little bit of jealousy with so many cars, and there was nothing left. You can’t get out of the car without it.”
“Why don’t you bring some other things?” Qian, Xiaji Food Shop and Buyunlou have all kinds of special food, and even the storybooks sold in the bookstore are not available anywhere else. Shopkeeper Hu can take a look at them.”
Hearing what Xia Mingyue said, Hu Yuanzhi was a little moved, but then he thought, "The profits of these things are too thin, and you can't make much money just by going back and forth."
" Although you don’t make much money, you are basically making a steady profit. "Yes." Xia Mingyue said, "Shopkeeper Hu has been traveling around for many years and has done a lot of big business. Some people can make hundreds or thousands of taels of silver from one business, but to put it bluntly, if the luck is bad, there will be a loss in one business. Many times.”
< br>“The profits of these things seem to be thin, but they are very safe. If you save little by little, the income will be very considerable. Does Shopkeeper Hu think this is true?”
“Come again, As the saying goes, taking the wrong approach, many people When doing business, most people choose businesses that are profitable and worthwhile. There are not many people doing business like this. If Shopkeeper Hu can do it, he might be able to achieve something."
Hearing this, Hu Yuanzhi breathed out subconsciously.
What Xia Mingyue said is true. For merchants like them who carry goods back and forth, no matter how well they plan and consider carefully, they still have to rely on God's will.
When times are bad, there is no market for the goods shipped there, so you have to find a new place to sell them, and go back and forth, which consumes a lot of money. In the end, you may have to cut the price and sell the goods cheaply.
Now that he is getting older, he has elderly parents and children who want to start a family and start a business. His monthly money expenses are also flowing like water, which makes him unable to withstand the ups and downs.
Surer business can be done.
And as Xia Mingyue said, sometimes in business, you need to pay attention to surprises and fill vacancies. These things may actually make a fortune.
Xia Mingyue kept observing Hu Yuanzhi's expression, and when he relaxed a little, he added, "I just said that it is fate that we can do business together. Shopkeeper Hu can be regarded as our first big businessman. We will also make some profits and give Shopkeeper Hu an extra 10% of the goods. In addition, if Shopkeeper Hu comes to pick up the goods next time, as long as the quantity of goods can exceed this time, we can give another 10% of the goods, how about?"
After Hu Yuanzhi thought for a moment, he made a decision immediately, "Sure, just follow what Madam Xia said, but we have agreed that it will only take seven days. The goods must be ready within seven days." "No problem." Xia Mingyue responded with a smile.
"Besides, I am somewhat interested in what Madam Xia just said, so I have to trouble Madam Xia to help guide me and take a look."
Look around, you might be able to find something good.
"Sure." Xia Mingyue agreed again.
After agreeing on the matter and making an appointment to go look at the goods nearby the next day, Hu Yuanzhi left with satisfaction and returned to the inn where he was temporarily staying.
Song Changhe and Xia Mingyue gave each other a brief farewell.
After returning, Song Changhe cupped his hands again and again towards Xia Mingyue, "Thanks to Madam Xia this time, otherwise this business would have been impossible to negotiate."
Then his face was filled with emotion. They are all ashamed, "On the contrary, I, as the manager of the workshop, can't put much effort into this business..."
"Steward Song is doing his best for the workshop, but it's just that Steward Song has been in the Yamen for a long time and is not very familiar with the business of the merchants. He just didn't think about it for a moment."
At first, it will take a long time, and it will become easier with practice."
"Thank you, Madam Xia, for your encouragement." Song Changhe felt slightly relieved, but still felt quite guilty.
After I went back that night, I looked for some books that had been packed away but recorded some of the accounts and major events of my former family cloth shop.
Although there is still a long time to come, he still needs to work hard and catch up as soon as possible, so that he can truly be worthy of the title of steward of the vinegar making workshop.
After Xia Mingyue returned, she cooked a few dishes with her own hands.
Since having half a jar of mellow and fragrant millet balsamic vinegar in the past two days, Xia Mingyue has become accustomed to eating sour dishes.
Morning cucumbers mixed with balsamic vinegar are crispy, delicious and full of fragrance. It is paired with crispy peanuts to add a rich aroma.
Sweet and sour chicken breast strips, sweet and sour taste, mellow and fragrant, using chicken breast, the taste is more tender and smooth, the soup is thick, whether it is eaten with rice or with white flour steamed buns, Everyone can have a good meal and enjoy themselves to the fullest.

For apple cider vinegar, use apples that have been stored properly and are still crispy and raw. Core and cut into slices. Put them in a jar with rock sugar. Pour in enough rice vinegar to marinate. When eaten, it will be thick, sweet and sour, and fruity. Full of fragrance, beautifying and beautifying... (End of this chapter)
