Catering God

Chapter 9 The First Pot of Gold
Bar interior.

In a soundproof office.

"Since you can come to me with this thing, you must have come with a price." Chen Yuefeng, the owner of Ansu Tavern, poured a cup of tea for Jiang Feng who was sitting at his desk.

"of course."

Jiang Feng held the steaming tea and his eyes couldn't help but move to the other side of the room.

Chen Jingyu held a glass of juice and sat obediently in front of the small TV, watching cartoons.

It was the recently released "Kung Fu Panda".

Jiang Feng considered it inappropriate to leave Chen Jingyu outside the bar, so he simply brought her in.

However, the girl's interest in price negotiation was not as great as that of a chubby and honest black and white iron-eating beast.

Look back.

Jiang Feng took a sip of hot tea, looked at the bar owner behind the table, and chuckled:

"Boss Chen, you've seen the effects of these two snacks."

Chen Yuefeng was very unwilling, but nodded without getting angry: "Yes, that's right."

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see how much the toothpick lamb next door has affected your business. But I'm not the kind of person who charges exorbitant prices or takes advantage of others' misfortunes. I'm in business to make friends..."

Jiang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, stroking the smooth teacup with his fingers, and his smile became more and more like that of an old fox.

Being stared at by the boy with smiling eyes, Chen Yuefeng felt a little uncomfortable and uneasy.

The other party kept saying he wanted to make friends, but why did it sound to him like he was here to eat people?

He has been doing business for many years and is in his thirties, but this is the first time he has encountered such a situation.

Finally, unable to bear Jiang Feng's pressure, Chen Yuefeng lost his patience and took the initiative to ask: "So...how much do you want to sell it for?"

Jiang Feng took a sip of tea and said slowly:

"Two formulas packaged together, a total of 600,000."

"This... is too expensive." Chen Yuefeng frowned immediately, seeming a little shocked by the price.

"Not expensive..." Jiang Feng shook his head and said with a smile: "The total price of the formula is 400,000. The extra 200,000 will buy you peace of mind. I can guarantee that I will not sell these two formulas to the neighbors."

Chen Yuefeng almost choked on his tea.

He quickly pulled out two pieces of tissue paper to wipe his chin, then looked at the boy across the table in disbelief.

Jiang Feng spread his hands and said innocently, "It's not easy for a high school graduate to earn tuition fees, not to mention...my plan is very reasonable, right?"

"You have earned the tuition for all the students in your class..." Chen Yuefeng gritted his teeth, but he could do nothing about Jiang Feng.

It was the first time he had seen this way of raising prices.

It turns out that the other party had already planned to sell the recipe to both sides before he came.

"Boss Chen, I'm selling it to you or to my neighbor. If I sell it to you for 400,000, I can still make 80. If I only sell it to you exclusively, it's only 600,000. So, I'm still losing 20."

Jiang Feng coughed lightly and said shamelessly: "Forget it, just consider it a loss of twenty. Who made me so willing to make friends?"

It sounds like he still suffered a loss.

Chen Yuefeng was frowning.

"Is this how you make friends?"

"How about this, Boss Chen, please think about it for a few days. I'll leave you my number. If you've thought it through, we can get in touch later."

Jiang Feng said this and prepared to get up.

Seeing this, Chen Yuefeng hurriedly stopped him: "Don't worry, don't worry, let's talk more."

"Boss Chen, what are you worried about? As you can see, these two snacks of mine are very popular with customers, and they have advantages over the toothpick lamb next door."

"How to say?"

"In terms of taste, it's not inferior to the toothpick lamb next door. Moreover, rabbit and duck are inherently cheaper than lamb. If they are made into drainage products, the price will be much lower than the other side."

Jiang Feng is right.

The biggest advantage of these two products is that their production costs are much lower than the toothpick lamb next door.

And most importantly, it was almost Chen Yuefeng's lifeline. Ansu Tavern's business was getting worse and worse. If they didn't find a way to attract customers as soon as possible, they might be on the verge of bankruptcy.

Chen Yuefeng took a deep breath, raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Feng, his eyes became firm again.
"Okay, I agree to your price, but I have one condition."

"Oh?"

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yuefeng told Jiang Feng his other condition.

That is to sign an agreement requiring Jiang Feng not to sell the formulas of the two products in this city again within five years.

It can be regarded as an upgraded version of the protection plan Jiang Feng just proposed.

Never sell to your neighbor, expand to the entire city, and add time limits.

Jiang Feng... readily agreed to this.

"Six hundred thousand is not a small sum. I need to make some cash flow and will deposit it into your bank account gradually. Don't worry about that. I have always been an honest person when it comes to business."

"I fully trust this. It's a pleasure to work with you, Boss Chen."

Even though Jiang Feng could only get 100,000 first, he dared to hand over the recipe to Chen Yuefeng.

One reason is that there is a contract, and the other is that he doesn't have to worry about Chen Yuefeng being a deadbeat and defaulting on his debts, unless he really doesn't want this pub to survive.

"Have one?"

Jiang Feng looked at Chen Jingyu who was still watching cartoons behind him, then shook his head and said, "No, I don't smoke."

Chen Yuefeng followed Jiang Feng's gaze and saw Chen Jingyu. He didn't observe her carefully just now, but just at a glance he felt that she was a very beautiful girl.

Now I breathed a sigh of relief, took a closer look, and found that... it was really beautiful.

"What's your name for this one?"

"Same last name as you, Chen Jingyu."

Seeing Chen Yuefeng's admiration, Jiang Feng quickly stopped his guess: "We are just ordinary friends."

"Uh-huh."

Chen Yuefeng responded with a look that said "I understand".

Jiang Feng was helpless.

Before leaving, Chen Yuefeng still clung to Jiang Feng's shoulders and whispered in his ear, "Girls like this, who knows how many people are interested in them out there. Take advantage of this summer vacation to get her, otherwise, when she goes to college, there will be many more competitors."

"We are just ordinary friends."

Chen Yuefeng gave him a look that said "I understand".

Send Jiang Feng and the other two away.

At the door of the bar, Chen Yuefeng watched the backs of the young couple leaving.

Can't help but sigh.

"This is the first time I've ever been so stressed out doing business with a student."

To be honest.

His initial thought was to get these two formulas for less than 200,000 yuan.

But Jiang Feng made a bold offer and had a great influence on his price.

There's no pulling at all.

Chen Yuefeng was defeated on the spot.

Because the other party grasped his weak spot.

He is really just a high school graduate... Although Chen Yuefeng was not convinced, he had no choice but to believe it.

But he wasn't too surprised, after all, some people are born with business acumen.

Just like him, he was a kid from the countryside. When he was in school, he persuaded his father to spend money to set up a few pool tables in the town, but he was not successful. However, later facts proved that setting up a few pool tables was definitely a profitable business in that era.

"All I can say is, every generation brings forth talented people... Hey, was it 'generations' or 'generations'?"
