If you don't consummate the marriage for three years and then marry a successful educated youth

Seeing that he didn't speak, Gao Jinbao waited quietly for a while.

Sun Youcai sighed: "I have a contract with the farm, and I can only get the lowest price by purchasing from them on a long-term basis. If I change the purchasing agent now, it's like falling out with the farm."

"How can you be sure that the chicken and duck eggs we buy from the countryside are better than the ingredients from across the street? If they aren't better, then what's the point of buying them?"

"Costs will increase. If we don't increase sales volume and don't have many customers, we will lose money, and we won't be able to explain it to our superiors."

"Moreover, there are few farms in the area. If you back out of the purchase before the contract ends, you'll offend people and then you can't go back on your word."

Gao Jinbao was having a headache. What should he do?

Sun Youcai pondered for a moment before speaking, "If you want me to fall out with the farm, you have to show me solid evidence that will definitely make our restaurant better."

"In the past, our two restaurants used the same ingredients, but had different cooking styles, so we had an advantage. Now that their ingredients are better than ours, we just need to make sure our ingredients are just as good as theirs."

"With the advantage in seasonings, I believe we can definitely beat them. So the question is, where do they source their ingredients?"

Gao Jinbao's eyes darted around: "Boss Sun, don't worry about this. They will definitely deliver the goods to the restaurant. I'll have someone keep an eye on things and see who's delivering them."

"Once we know who it is, we'll go to them, raise our prices, and get them to sign a monopoly agreement with us. That way, without the best ingredients, they'll automatically have to close down."

Sun Youcai's heart stirred slightly upon hearing his words.

"What you said... makes a lot of sense. Yes, how come I didn't think of that before? Our shop only makes the same few flavors over and over again. We either need to change the cooking method or change the ingredients."

"In comparison, it's simpler to change the ingredients. As long as we can build a reputation and monopolize high-end ingredients, then people will be willing to pay for any future price increases."

The two exchanged a glance, a calculating smile flashing in their eyes.

Gao Jinbao smiled and flattered, "Yes, boss. If the ingredients don't change, there's only so much we can do, especially since we can't build a good reputation. This is a great opportunity."

Sun Youcai slammed his hand on the table and said with a smile, "Okay, we'll do it your way. You quickly have someone keep an eye on things so the people on the other side don't find out. I need to know who's supplying them."

"Understood, I'll go now."

After leaving the store, Gao Jinbao narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes filled with the joy of a successful scheme. Once he made a name for himself, he would be the store manager here when Boss Sun got promoted and moved to another city.

Who wants to be just an ordinary kitchen purchasing agent? It's nothing compared to being the boss! Hmph, the best days are yet to come.

Humming a song, I went downstairs to find two people watching the other side.

The two men, their faces full of flattery, said, "Brother Gao, don't worry, we'll definitely get this done, hehe."

"Yes, keep a close eye on them, don't let them find out."

If they alert the other side and they raise their prices to insist on signing an exclusive supply contract, then they'll really have no choice but to watch helplessly as their business declines day by day, and they won't be able to hold on for long.

After dealing with the matter, the two secretly went out.

They kept an eye on it for two days without any movement. On the third day, they saw someone push a cart and carry it in through the back door of Haoyunlai. The person came out shortly afterward.

The two exchanged a glance, then secretly slipped inside, hiding in the shadows to watch them unload the baskets, take out the chickens, ducks, and eggs, and put them in the warehouse before leaving.

"Let's go into the warehouse and take a look. We can steal some eggs without getting caught. But don't steal the chickens or ducks; that's too obvious."

"Okay, let's do it this way, and come back when it gets dark."

The next morning, the two men came to the kitchen in a secretive manner, took Gao Jinbao to a secluded place, and whispered, "Brother Gao, we've taken care of this matter. We didn't dare bring any chickens or ducks out."

"However, we brought two chicken eggs and two duck eggs with us. They were delivered together with the chickens and ducks, so it means they are supplied by the same person. Try them and see if they taste the same as the ones over there."

"If they are the same, then it's confirmed. My brother and I worked really hard last night. They guarded that warehouse very closely, and it was not easy to get this little bit of stuff out."

Gao Jinbao smiled and praised, "Good, very good. You've done a great job this time. Once our restaurant recovers, you'll be well rewarded."

"Boss Sun has always been generous, as you all know."

"Yes, Brother Gao, are you going to open it now?"

"open."

With a snap, the eggshell was cracked open, and the contents were poured into a bowl. The two bright orange yolks were very obvious. Gao Jinbao was stunned and stared at the two yolks in a daze.

Upon seeing this, the two men called out, "Brother Gao, what's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

"...Oh, it's nothing. I just feel like these egg yolk ones are so rare. I feel like I've seen them somewhere before."

Plop, plop, several chicken and duck eggs were cracked open, and without exception, they all had double yolks. Double yolks are very rare; the probability of this happening is no longer a matter of luck.

Gao Jinbao's face flickered between light and dark. He thought back to that day when his brother-in-law came to find him with his men. He had tasted that dish before, and it seemed very similar to the one at the restaurant across the street.

Double yolk eggs—they had said at the time that 99% of them were double yolk eggs, but they tried to drive people away by lowering the price…

"Ahem, take this bowl of eggs to the kitchen and have them make wild onion scrambled eggs. Don't add any other eggs, just this one bowl."

"Fine, I'll keep an eye on it myself. This matter can't afford to go wrong in the slightest."

Gao Jinbao watched them cook in the kitchen. When the dishes were ready, he brought them to the dining room and called the owner, Sun Youcai, to eat with him. After tasting the food, the two looked at each other and remained silent.

Sun Youcai slowly smiled: "Good, great, that's the taste. Have you found out who's supplying it?"

"Yes, it was a hunter from Xiangyang Brigade in the countryside who delivered the goods. That's the brigade my brother-in-law works in. We should have a pretty good relationship. If I step in, there's a high chance it will work out."

"But boss, we need to hurry. If the other side raises the price and signs an exclusive supply agreement, then even if we know who the supplier is, it will be useless. They won't sell to us."

"Yes, you're right. So when are you going to see your brother-in-law? Since we're from the same brigade, that makes things easier. Let your brother-in-law talk to us on our behalf. If this is done, I'll give you five hundred."

A glint of greed flashed in Gao Jinbao's eyes, but he said confidently, "No problem, Boss Sun, you can rest assured and leave it to me."
