Chapter 203
"Director, why are you here?" Ma Junliang stopped what he was doing and asked Liu Xiaoguang with a smile.

"Brother Ma, is there any change in the production of whitebait recently?" Liu Xiaoguang asked Ma Junliang.

"No, it's still the same as before, without any changes." Ma Junliang was a little confused, wondering why Liu Xiaoguang would ask such a question.

The reason why Liu Xiaoguang came back to look for Ma Junliang was to rule out whether there was a problem with the quality of the whitebait.

If there is a problem with the quality of whitebait, resulting in a change in the taste of whitebait, it is likely to affect the sales of whitebait products.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

Liu Xiaoguang visited the whitebait processing workshop again, but still found nothing abnormal.

The production process is no different from before.

From this point of view, if such a problem occurs, it should not be a problem with the quality of the whitebait.

That's the sales funnel!
Now the whitebait produced by Liu Xiaoguang has two main sales channels.

Online and offline.

Online is the online store run by Liu Xiaoguang on Taohao.com.According to Wu Xiaowen's statistics, the online store's sales have not declined in the past month, and have increased significantly.

From this point of view, the problem should be offline.

The offline sales of whitebait products are mainly for major restaurants and restaurants.

Liu Xiaoguang had someone check it out, and sure enough, the shipment of whitebait to restaurants and restaurants dropped significantly last month.

There are even some former partners who stopped cooperating directly.

What's happening here?
Doubts arose in Liu Xiaoguang's heart.

The whitebait produced by the whitebait breeding base can be said to be the best whitebait in China.

Is there any other family that produces more high-quality and cheap whitebait?

Liu Xiaoguang began to investigate.

Naturally, you can't ask the restaurant directly about such things, and they won't tell you if you ask.

You have to visit it yourself to find out the mystery.

Qingfeng Building.

It's in Qingzhou City.

It is a restaurant that Liu Xiaoguang worked with before.

"I invite you to dinner tonight!"

Liu Xiaoguang called Huang Linlin.

"Ah, you finally remembered me!" Although there was a trace of reproach in her tone, Huang Linlin happily agreed.

Liu Xiaoguang usually waited outside the hospital until Huang Linlin got off work.

"What shall we eat?" Huang Linlin asked Liu Xiaoguang cheerfully.

"Go to Qingfeng Building!"

"Ah, the food in that restaurant is not cheap!" Huang Linlin said in surprise.

"It's okay, I invite you!"

After parking the car, Liu Xiaoguang and Huang Linlin came to the second floor.

The waiter handed over the menu and Liu Xiaoguang looked through it. On the menu were braised whitebait and braised whitebait.

"I want a braised whitebait!" Liu Xiaoguang said to the waiter.

"Okay!" The waiter agreed happily.

This restaurant sells whitebait. It seems that Qingfenglou just stopped cooperating with him.

Huang Linlin, who was sitting opposite Liu Xiaoguang, was a little strange. Every time Liu Xiaoguang ate with her, he asked her to order her favorite dishes.

Why this time, Liu Xiaoguang ordered a braised whitebait first.

After ordering the braised whitebait, Liu Xiaoguang handed the menu to Huang Linlin.

"Look, what do you want to eat?" Liu Xiaoguang handed the menu to Huang Linlin.

Huang Linlin ordered two more dishes, and the two sat and chatted.

"What are you busy with these days?" Liu Xiaoguang had already agreed to ask Huang Linlin out to play last time, but because of the brand exhibition, he didn't contact Huang Linlin for several days.

"I'm going to attend a brand fair in Jiangbei Province."

"Is it to promote the products of Laolongfor?"

"Yes, the effect of this publicity is not bad!" As he said, Liu Xiaoguang took out a beautifully packaged box from his bag.

"A gift for you!"

Huang Linlin took it with a smile, "You even brought me a present!"

The words are full of surprises.

Huang Linlin opened the box and found a unique necklace inside.

"So lovely!"

Huang Linlin held the necklace and looked left and right, unable to put it down.

This necklace was a gift that Wu Xiaowen helped choose before Liu Xiaoguang came back from the provincial capital.

According to Wu Xiaowen, this necklace is an international brand and is very popular among young ladies.

"Help me take it!" Huang Linlin tilted her head and looked at Liu Xiaoguang.

Liu Xiaoguang got up and put the necklace on Huang Linlin's smooth neck.

Not to mention, it’s so beautiful!
No wonder this stuff is so expensive!
When the whitebait was on the table, Liu Xiaoguang picked up a whitebait and looked it over carefully, but he didn't see any problem.

"Is there something wrong with this fish?" Huang Linlin noticed that Liu Xiaoguang kept staring at the whitebait and couldn't help but ask.

"Ah, no problem, eat vegetables!" Liu Xiaoguang came back to his senses and put the whitebait into his mouth.

After chewing it twice, Liu Xiaoguang discovered the problem.

This whitebait doesn't taste right.

The whitebait he is eating now has a very earthy smell.

It's wicker fish!
Liu Xiaoguang made a judgment immediately.

Although the earthy smell of the wicker fish itself is masked to a certain extent by stewing it in oil, Liu Xiaoguang has eaten so many whitebait and is very familiar with the taste of whitebait.

In addition, he had eaten wicker fish when he was in the provincial capital a few days ago, so he recognized the taste immediately.

Speaking of which, the chef of Qingfeng Building is still very thoughtful, knowing that the earthy smell of wicker fish is difficult to cover up, so he adopted the method of stewing in oil, hoping to cover up the earthy smell of whitebait through the taste of seasoning.

The price of wicker fish is only about [-] yuan per catty, which is a huge gap compared with whitebait.

Qingfenglou used wicker fish to pretend to be whitebait, and the profits can be imagined.

No wonder the sales of whitebait have not increased significantly recently. It seems that there are definitely a lot of merchants who use wicker fish instead of whitebait.

Liu Xiaoguang had dinner with Huang Linlin calmly.

"Would you like to go up and sit down?"

Downstairs at Huang Linlin's house, Huang Linlin extended an invitation to Liu Xiaoguang.

"Okay!" Liu Xiaoguang did not refuse this time.

In Huang Linlin's house, everything happened smoothly.

The next morning, Liu Xiaoguang sent Huang Linlin to work in the hospital, and then returned to Liujia Village alone.

Back in Liujia Village, Liu Xiaoguang immediately called together the people from the food sales department.

After listening to Liu Xiaoguang's introduction of the wicker fish, everyone suddenly realized.

No wonder the sales of whitebait have been so sluggish in the recent period. It turns out that major restaurants are shoddy and fake whitebait with wicker fish.

The price of wicker fish is much cheaper than that of whitebait. Driven by profits, it is no wonder that these restaurants will do such shoddy things.

"Think about it, everyone, is there any good way to deal with this situation."

The reason why Liu Xiaoguang called everyone here was to brainstorm and find ways to reverse this situation.Otherwise, the impact on the whitebait farming industry will be too great.
