Chapter 119 Everything is hard at the beginning
“Are all the people who work here a heavy drinker?”
Lin Shu smelled the smell of alcohol in the air and felt that he would definitely go home after working here for a day It's drunk.
"It's hard to say how much you drink, but the people who work here are basically people who know how to drink." Gu Jiu led Lin Shu into a two-story building.
There is a sign for the Sales Department at the door of the first room on the second floor.
The two knocked on the door and entered. After getting to know each other, when the staff knew that they wanted to come to the factory to place an order, their faces were instantly replaced by surprise.
"What unit are you in? How much do you want to order this time?" A man who called himself the section chief stood up and poured them two cups of tea.
Gu Jiu: "What are the general requirements for placing orders in your factory?"
"There are no other requirements for placing orders in our factory. There is only one item, and the minimum order is one hundred pounds."
< br>Lin Shu asked: "It's in the city, can you deliver it to your door?"
The section chief nodded without hesitation: "It can be delivered to your door."
Gu Jiu and Lin Shu looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
Gu Jiu placed an order directly here, "We will order two hundred kilograms of bulk liquor first, and it will be delivered to your door in about a week."
The section chief had no objection and placed the order on the spot. , received their deposit, and went to the finance department to have someone stamp it with their official seal.
“Don’t worry, we will definitely prepare your order before delivery, and it will not delay the opening of your store.”
The section chief sent Lin Shu and Gu Jiu to the factory gate with a smile on his face.
I happened to meet the sales clerk who was returning to the factory, "Chief Wang, is this your friend?"
Chief Wang changed his face in a second, and asked with a tiger face: "Why are there so many? Nonsense, how much business did you do today?"
When asked about business, the two clerks immediately fell silent.
Lin Shu looked amused and waved to Section Chief Wang: "Section Chief, we are leaving. If we have business dealings in the future, you don't have time to ask the employees below to come to us."
Section Chief Wang smiled and waved, "I have time, and I have plenty of time. You walk slowly, and take your time on the road."
Why should his client give it to the clerk below?
The next visit to the match factory and food factory went smoothly. Maybe these factories saw that they had formal procedures, and because they were located in the city, they could meet their needs whether it was delivery or other needs.
After running around all morning, Lin Shu really felt how difficult it is to open a non-staple food store in this era.
Unlike later generations, there are dealers everywhere. If you want to open a canteen, you can just ask the dealer to prepare the goods.
But here, if you want to be the first to eat crabs, you have to put in countless times more energy than others.
The two returned home. As soon as they cooked the meal, Lin Dongfa arrived carrying a sewing machine.
Gu Jiu helped push the bicycle in and found the sewing machine carton tied to the back seat, and asked, "Why did you bring this sewing machine up?"
Dongfa untied it while While replying: "Sister-in-law asked me to send it up Yes, she said it’s inconvenient to make clothes without a sewing machine. It’s useless to have one at home, so it’s better to give it to my sister-in-law.”
Gu Jiu thought of the fabric Lin Shu cut yesterday, silently. Unpack and start assembling with tools.
After the aunt and nephew had assembled and adjusted the sewing machine, Lin Shu's meal was also ready.
“Wow, sister-in-law, you still have bacon at home!”
Dongfa’s eyes gleamed when he saw a large bowl of bacon and fried clams on the table. Lin Shu fried fried pork belly and garlic for noon, simmered bone yam soup all morning before going out, and added a shredded potato. This simple home-cooked dish made people think it was extremely delicious just because of its meaty taste.
Not to mention, Lin Shu felt like he had gained a lot of weight even after eating well and sleeping well in the city during these days.
"Is there no bacon at home?" Lin Shu picked up a piece of bacon and took a bite. The salty bacon was fat but not greasy, and it tasted really good.
Dong Fa picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. He shook his head and said, "No more. Now that the conditions at home are better, I will definitely ask my grandma to smoke more bacon by the end of this year."
I grew up eating bacon. No matter where I am, I will never forget this bite.
"Now that the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, it should be possible to smoke bacon." Lin Shu asked.
“I don’t know, I have to ask grandma.”
Lin Shu thought that it would be inconvenient to eat meat in the city. They had a banquet here in October, and after that they had to go to the provincial capital to run a banquet. It would be better to bring more bacon to the provincial capital and leave it to the parents-in-law and them to eat slowly.
"Okay, you go back and ask."
If that doesn't work, I can only buy fresh meat from the system mall.
“Sister-in-law, do you want to save more bacon and eat it later? Some time ago, the production team in Dongkou next door collectively built two boats and purchased fishing nets. The fish caught are all made into dried fish. Anyone in the village who wants to eat fish can go to them Buy it, and their production team will send the rest to the sales department in the countryside. If you want to eat it, I will buy some for you next time."
Lin Shu asked in surprise: "How about going back this time. Didn’t you hear about it?”
Lin Dongfa chuckled: "Maybe everyone is busy with the wedding banquet, forget about this matter."
Lin Shu: "The fish in the river is more delicious than the fish in the pond, you can ask tomorrow , If you have any dried fish, bring me ten pounds, and if you have a big fresh fish, bring one as well.”
The fish raised in the pond have a strong earthy smell, compared with the fish in the river. , more than a level higher.
Thinking of this, Lin Shu excitedly said to Gu Jiu: "If Dongkou Village produces dried fish in large quantities, our canteen can also sell some from them, and we should not have to worry about selling."
< br>"What canteen? Sister-in-law, uncle, what are you talking about?" Dongfa was confused.
Lin Shu and Gu Jiu looked at each other and smiled, "We have applied for a business license and are going to open a canteen in the city, which is also a grocery store. We can sell everything we need for daily life."
"Ah? Why before? Haven't I heard you talk about it?" Dongfa put down his chopsticks and asked seriously: "How can I help? "
Gu Jiu chuckled, "There will be a chance. When the autumn herb harvesting season is over, and I have some free time in the village, I will come to the city to help."
< br>Dongfa smiled with crooked eyebrows after hearing this. He was not good at studying, and now he could finally come to the city to work.
Speaking of which, many friends in the village envied him to death.
After seeing off Dongfa in the afternoon, Lin Shu and the others visited two more small factories. Among them, the products of the sugar factory in the county were somewhat disappointing.
We only produce ordinary brown sugar, rock sugar and old handmade Wosi candies. If you want fruit candies and White Rabbit toffee, you have to order directly from the manufacturer.
A small canteen forced them to travel across most of China.
Of course, it is impossible to visit most of China in a few days. We can only visit all the manufacturers in the county and city that can produce products.
Fortunately, the operation of these manufacturers has been relatively smooth. The only one is the soy sauce factory, which requires a minimum order of 100 boxes as soon as it opens.
Soy sauce is indispensable for cooking in thousands of households, look at how good they are.
However, this does not trouble Lin Shu and the others. One hundred boxes is one hundred boxes, and one box has 24 bottles. One hundred boxes is only two thousand four hundred bottles. Think about the population of the county, two thousand four Even a hundred bottles won't last long.
