Beyeye pondered for a moment.

"Let's buy a shop first. Once we have the shop, we can recruit workers. Then we can feel more relaxed."

"only……"

Gu Rao said with a smile, "If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating? Is there anything we can't say between us?"

Bieye was a little helpless.

"You got that money from selling jewelry."

Gu Rao knew what he was worried about.

"We are husband and wife. My money is yours and your money is mine. Why are we so clearly divided?"

"Keeping money won't make money. If you leave it there to breed maggots, it's better to invest it."

Bieye was used to hearing words from his wife that he had never heard before.

"What is investment?"

Gu Rao gave him a brief explanation.

"Investment is investing money to achieve a certain purpose, just like we buy a shop for convenience and to make more money. Money begets money."

-

The next day, after Gu Rao and Bieye got up, they prepared the things to be sold today. Then Bieye went to water the fields while Gu Rao guarded the stall.

After Bieye came back, she went to Carpenter Tan's house to order a batch of larger cups.

The first order of 200 cups was used up in less than two days. Later, an additional 500 were ordered, 300 of which have been delivered, and the remaining 200 are in progress.

Tan Song smiled when he saw Gu Rao.

"The cup ran out again so quickly?"

Gu Rao said, "It hasn't been used up yet, but I want to order a larger cup this time, so I came here to discuss the price with you."

Tan Song asked, "How much older?"

Gu Rao said, "It will be twice as big as the original one."

Tan Song thought for a moment.

"Bamboo cups, a hundred large cups, add five cents to the original small cups, and wooden cups, how about ten cents to the original small cups?"

"This price is already very fair. I only give you such a favorable price because you are a long-term customer."

Gu Rao didn't have to bargain every time. He could see that the price given by Carpenter Tan this time was very sincere, so he said directly, "Okay, just use this price and make me another two hundred large bamboo milk tea cups." , three hundred large wooden milk tea cups."

Gave a deposit of 300 Wen.

Yuan Ke sat in front of his shop with a sad face.

"Our price has been set low enough. It costs four cents a bowl. How could we still not buy it and go to the casserole rice noodle shop to buy milk tea?"

"What's the difference between their milk tea and our milk tea?"

"Isn't it the same taste?"

Liu Xiaomei had just come back from inquiring about the news, and her face was ashen.

"They have a new product!"

Yuan Ke frowned.

"When did this happen?"

Liu Xiaomei rolled her eyes and said with an ugly face to the useless man in front of her, "You are still in business, and you don't even know when or what new products will be released!"

"I just went back to my parents' house yesterday, but you still have so much milk tea left at a loss. You can't sell it all, don't you know how to find a way? What a pity to throw away so much milk tea!"

Yuan Ke said helplessly, "By the afternoon, I was selling a bowl for three cents, but those customers just didn't buy it, and they said we were cheap and didn't have good products."

Liu Xiaomei took a sip.

"They only deserve the cheap one. If it's really expensive, they cry and are reluctant to buy it!"

Yuan Ke asked, "What should we do now?"

Liu Xiaomei said, "With the price of four cents, we have not made much profit. It is impossible to go any lower. They released milk tea cups before, and our business was affected."

"Now, they have released two new milk teas, one is called Osmanthus Stuffed Taro Ball Milk Tea, and the other is called Full Cup of Red Pomelo. Customers like it very much. We can only make these two milk teas as soon as possible."

Yuan Ke was confused when he heard this.

"Small taro balls stuffed with sweet-scented osmanthus? A full cup of red pomelo? Just hearing the name, I don't know what it is or the ingredients used. How can I imitate it?"

Liu Xiaomei once again felt depressed about her husband's stupidity.

Why did she, such a smart person, marry such a fool?

"Can't you hear it, see it, or taste it?"

"We are no longer familiar with that couple. If we buy it ourselves, they will definitely not sell it to us. Let's find someone to buy it back for us."

"Customers just want to be fresh now. When the freshness wears off, they will still come to buy the cheaper ones we sell. I don't believe that these two people can always produce new products!"

Yuan Ke asked again, "What to do with the leftover milk tea from yesterday?"

Liu Xiaomei went to the kitchen to take a look, took a spoonful and tasted the taste. Then she frowned and said angrily, "It's such a dark day, and the taste has changed a bit after one night. The guests will definitely be able to taste it." , I’m afraid I can’t have these anymore.”

Yuan Ke was reluctant to throw it away.

"I put it in a water tank yesterday and separated it with cold water. Unexpectedly, it still smelled a bit. There is so much left. It would be a pity to throw it away."

He was wise for once.

"We must at least make our money back, right? We'll sell these stale ones for two cents a bowl. Those who are reluctant to spend money and want to drink milk tea will definitely be willing to buy them."

Liu Xiaomei hesitated.

"What if someone gets drunk and comes to settle accounts with us?"

Yuan Ke didn't take it seriously.

"People with delicate bodies will not be greedy for bargains. People who are greedy for bargains and buy our leftover milk tea, how can they have such delicate bodies that they will get diarrhea after drinking milk tea that has a little taste?"

"Besides, they eat so much in a day, so we are sure that they drank our milk tea and had diarrhea?"

"As long as we don't admit it, it's useless to settle accounts with us!"

-

Zhang's milk tea shop.

Zhang Laicai was pacing back and forth in the shop, with blisters forming at the corners of his mouth. It was obvious that he hadn't eaten well or slept well recently, and he was so angry that he could feel it even one meter away from him.

Lu Xiaoqi advised, "Master, stop wandering around. My eyes are dazzled by what I saw. Can't we sit down and think of a solution?"

Zhang Laicai sat down obediently, but still sighed.

"Originally, when I saw so many people buying milk tea, I thought the milk tea business would make more money, so I rented a shop specifically to do the milk tea business. But now, the business is so bad, and the money I earn every day is not enough to pay the daily rent of the shop. If I continue to do this If we go down, sooner or later we will have to pay for all our property!"

Lu Xiaoqi also felt a little emotional.

"I didn't expect that customers would be so interested in the milk tea at Claypot Rice Noodle Shop. Even if we sell it cheaply, they would not come to our place."

"What's more, the Yuan family has deliberately sold the food a penny cheaper than us. All the customers have been snatched away by the Yuan family, Bie Ye and Gu Rao. We can't even drink soup."

Mentioning the Yuan family, Zhang Laicai became angry again.

"Fortunately, our business was not robbed. The Yun family is probably worried now. No one is buying their milk tea, and they are also unwilling to lower the price like us."

Lu Xiaoqi was worried.

"The Yun family mainly sells pastries. Sometimes when someone goes to buy pastries, they also buy milk tea. Besides, do people who are willing to buy pastries lack that little money?"

"They have a regular source of customers, but we don't. Their situation is much better than ours. Now we seem to be in the most embarrassing situation."

"In a little while, our milk tea shop may be the first to be forced to close down."

Zhang Laicai heard the same thing.

"The casserole rice noodle shop released a new product yesterday. I was just sulking yesterday and forgot to buy it and study it. You should go and buy it now."

"This time we must imitate new products faster than the Yuan family and Yun family!"

Lu Xiaoqi obeyed her husband's advice.

"I'll go right away."
