Rebirth Ninety's Fat Wife Should Be Self-reliant

Chapter 43 Suppliers

The sky is getting longer day by day, and it is already bright at six o'clock in the morning.

Because Zhou Huilan's soy milk business is so good, there are many people who imitate her in the morning market, and some stone mills have been moved out, but the taste of those made by Zhou Huilan is not as good as Zhou Huilan's.

She had just come out of home this morning, and before she even walked out of Songbai Street, a bald man in his fifties, with a young man who often bought soy milk from her, stopped her.

"Sister, this is my master, the master chef of our state-owned hotel in Anning City. His surname is Niu."

Zhou Huilan was startled, thinking that she had such a big background, she stopped the tricycle with a smile, "Hello, Master Niu, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Can I try your soy milk?"

Zhou Huilan didn't quite understand, but the young man behind Master Niu winked at her to give face to the old customers, so Zhou Huilan opened the lid of the pot and filled half a bowl and handed it to Master Niu.

The old man only took a small sip, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "This really tastes better than if you beat it back and reheat it!"

After receiving the compliment, Zhou Huilan immediately smiled like a flower.

"Can you supply this soy milk exclusively to our restaurant? We will charge you 25 cents per catty. Although the price is not as high as what you set up a stall for, you don't have to sell it yourself. If you make more, you can make more money."

There’s more.”

Zhou Huilan was stunned for a moment, but she quickly realized that if she could just grind the soy milk and send it directly to the restaurant, she would no longer have to spend time selling soy milk, and she would no longer need to be limited to the customers in the morning market.

"Then how much do you charge? Is there a limit?"

Niu Guangde smiled contemptuously, "Our hotel not only entertains guests for the city government, but also serves as a large canteen for government agencies. We usually grind our own soy milk, so we can make a fortune just for breakfast."

"Then how many pounds can you collect from me in a day?"

"Today you take these two pots first. If they sell well, then the more the merrier, it will be a win-win situation for us!"

Retail sales take a lot of time and delay in sending off children. Of course Huilan Chow would not refuse such an opportunity.

Niu Guangde asked her to send the soy milk directly to the kitchen of the hotel, weigh it, and then go directly to the finance office to collect the money.

Zhou Huilan turned the tricycle and followed the master and apprentice through two streets and arrived at the magnificent state-owned hotel.

It was during the morning session that many residents from nearby family homes would come here to buy food to take home. Some of them also bought soy milk from Chow Huilan.

When they saw her pushing a tricycle, they all gathered around and asked. When they heard that Chow Huilan was going to sell soy milk in a state-owned restaurant, those who had finished eating and were about to leave stopped Master Niu and asked him which window he was at, as if they were about to queue up.

Posture.

Niu Guangde then sent his apprentice to take Zhou Huilan to the kitchen to be weighed, but he entered the lobby, stood at the queue window, wiped the words on the small blackboard, and directly added the words "soy milk" under today's supply.

"Master Niu, what's the price of this soy milk in our canteen?"

"How much did you and Master Zhou buy originally?"

"Thirty cents a bag!"

"Then we will sell it to everyone for 30 cents, making small profits but quick turnover, just to facilitate the masses and serve the people!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately won a round of applause.

Chow Huilan, who was in the back kitchen of the hotel, heard the cheers from the front, but she didn't see how spectacular the queue was at the door in the blink of an eye.

The soy milk was weighed on the scale and weighed one hundred and eighty-seven kilograms. It was poured into a pot in the restaurant and the weight of the two pots was deducted. The total was thirty-six kilograms. The soy milk weighed one hundred and fifty-one kilograms. The chef issued a receipt.

The young apprentice helped Zhou Huilan move the empty pot to the tricycle and led her to the finance room on the second floor to collect the money.

"My name is Lu Jin, where are you, master?"

From then on, they had a cooperative relationship, and they often interacted with each other. Zhou Huilan and the young man had known each other for some time. She smiled and extended her hand, "My name is Zhou Huilan."

"Sister Zhou, your soy milk is really good, to say nothing of it." The two of them were going up the stairs, but Lu Jin still glanced up and down, and then lowered his voice and said to Zhou Huilan: "I'm going to make your soy milk."

, I have bought from all the stalls selling soy milk near the Drum Tower, and none of them can compare to yours."

The old man came to make such a fuss a few days ago, and the hotel took this matter very seriously. After all, although the food in state-owned hotels has not been particularly outstanding in recent years, it has never been slapped in the face like this.

In response to such a compliment, Zhou Huilan could only smile and say, "You're very grateful."

There is a row of private rooms on the second floor of the hotel, but the remaining large area is empty. There are several large tables stacked together, which have obviously not been used for a long time. There are also many screens piled next to them, which look very old.

Lu Changqing said before that the reason why there are so many vendors selling snacks in the Drum Tower is that most of them are laid-off workers from state-owned hotels. The big canteen downstairs looks crowded, so maybe the business is not that good.

The finance room was at the end of the private room. Lu Jin knocked on the door and went in. There was only a middle-aged woman in her forties, wearing glasses and looking elegant.

Lu Jin handed over the receipt and said, "Sister Zhao, the soy milk Master Niu wants to collect is 25 cents per catty, payable in cash."

Accountant Zhao nodded, put the receipt into a drawer, wrote a note for both Lu Jin and Zhou Huilan to sign, and then directly gave the thirty-seven yuan and seventy-five cents to Zhou Huilan.

After doing all this, Lu Jin said goodbye to Accountant Zhao happily and pulled Zhou Huilan out of the finance room without saying any nonsense.

"Sister Zhao is like this. She talks little and is actually very nice."

Zhou Huilan smiled and collected the money. She didn't care if she talked more or less. If she talked less, she would be spared the hassle of socializing.

"Xiao Lu, when I deliver the soy milk to your restaurant, do I still have to cook it in a pot?" Zhou Huilan just noticed in the back kitchen that the chef had directly put the big pot of soy milk on the fire.

Lu Jin nodded, "Of course you have to boil it before selling it."

This way, she doesn't have to cook that dish at home, and can save some time and firewood.

Zhou Huilan secretly made a note and continued to ask: "Then, do you only collect this soy milk once in the morning, or do you collect it for breakfast, lunch and dinner?"

"Master just said that we will accept them all. If you have time during the day to polish them again, just bring them to you."

Zhou Huilan smiled and thanked Lu Jin, got on the tricycle and left the hotel.

She soaked so many beans last night, but even if she wanted to grind them again today, there were no more beans. She had to soak more beans tonight and work overtime during the day tomorrow.

When I got home, Yaoyao hadn't woken up yet.

Zhou Huilan went to the kitchen to cook Yaoyao's meal and cleaned up the pots and pans. Seeing that it was almost time, she went to call Yaoyao.

These days, Zhou Huilan is busy selling soy milk. Most of the time, Zhou Huilan is not there when Yaoyao wakes up. Granny Duan will take her to wash up and send her to school.

When she opened her eyes and saw her mother today, Yaoyao was very happy. She hugged Zhou Huilan's face and took a sip, "Mom, today's soy milk was sold out so quickly?"
