Chapter 21 Cooperation
Several people came to Zuixian Tower again. This time the waiter who greeted them was very kind and asked politely, "Guys, it's not dinner time yet. If you want to eat, please come back later."

Mr. Xu said, "Brother, we are not here to eat. We want to discuss business with your restaurant. I wonder if I can inform your shopkeeper?"

When the waiter heard what they said, he looked at the bullock cart behind them. There were several large baskets on the cart, covered with cotton cloth. He didn't know what they contained. He looked back and looked at Mr. Xu and said, "Okay, then please Everyone, please wait for a moment, let me go to the back to report." He turned around and ran into the restaurant.

After a while, a forty-year-old man with a round face and a green robe walked up to a few people and cupped his hands and said, "I heard that you guys came to Zuixian Tower to discuss business. What kind of business do you want to discuss?"

Mr. Xu said, "Shopkeeper, we grow the food ourselves and think it tastes good. We specifically want to cooperate with your restaurant. What do you think, shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper said, "Oh? I don't know what kind of food it is. We have our own supply channels for common food ingredients and we don't receive them from outside."

Mr. Xu hurriedly said, "Shopkeeper, we grow these vegetables ourselves. I dare not say whether they are available elsewhere, but they are unique in Huamen Town. Shopkeeper, please take a look..." As he said this, he reached out and opened the cover. Baskets of cotton cloth.

The shopkeeper wanted to see what this only thing looked like, so he looked towards the basket with cotton cloth opened, and saw that the basket was filled with purple, red, yellow, and green. He didn't have any of these. Things I've seen.

With a surprised look on his face, he asked Mr. Xu, "I wonder if you can help me clarify my doubts. What kind of crops are these? This is the first time I have seen them after being the shopkeeper for so many years."

Mr. Xu hurriedly introduced the vegetables in the basket one by one and said, "I bought these vegetables from Hu people in other places, so I planted them in my own vegetable garden with the attitude of trying them out. Unexpectedly, they came out. It’s surprisingly delicious, so I thought of cooperating with a restaurant to add some income to my family.”

The shopkeeper said, "So that's it. I got it from other places. No wonder I've never seen it before. So please discuss with us." He thought to himself that if these things are true as they say, then the restaurant's business will be even better. Floors.

A group of people came to sit down in the backyard of the restaurant. The shopkeeper said, "My surname is Tong. What do you call me?"

Mr. Xu said, "My surname is Xu, and I am from Xujia Village. These three are my sons. The eldest is Xu Yifeng, the second is Xu Yihua, the third is Xu Yicheng, and this is my granddaughter Xu Linyue."

When Qibao saw his grandfather introducing himself, he grinned and said, "Hello, Grandpa Tong. You can call me Qibao. My family members all call me that. Let me tell you, the vegetables grown at home are delicious. Grandpa Tong will definitely taste them." like!"

Shopkeeper Tong saw that this little girl was not timid like other children at all, so he teased, "Really? Grandpa wants to taste the food from Qibao's family. Grandpa Tong won't accept it if it doesn't taste good." "

At this time, Uncle Xu answered, "Manager Tong, why don't you let me take some of each and let the restaurant kitchen make them. You taste them first and we will discuss them later."

When shopkeeper Tong heard that it made sense, he ordered his waiters to take Uncle Xu and Qibao to the kitchen to teach the chef how to make these unseen dishes.

The whole family was led by the waiter to the kitchen. When the chefs saw that the waiter had brought two strangers in, they asked. After the waiter finished explaining the matter to the chefs, he asked Uncle Xu to tell the chef about these vegetables. Qibao was also directing how to deal with it. She planned to cook all the dishes she had eaten last night.Half an hour had passed since everything was done, and the aroma spread in the kitchen. The chefs had never smelled such a unique aroma, and they all wanted to taste it. Even shopkeeper Tong in the backyard also smelled it. Fragrant, I swallowed my saliva, but my face remained calm.Qibao deliberately left some of each dish for the chefs to try, and asked the waiters to carry the prepared dishes into the backyard.All the prepared dishes were brought to the table, and the aroma became stronger and stronger.

Qibao said, "Grandpa Tong, try the taste first to see if the talisman suits your taste."

Shopkeeper Tong hurriedly picked up a piece of tomato with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth. He immediately narrowed his eyes. The special fragrance spread in his mouth. The eggs were coated with red soup. It was sour. This was the first time he had eaten this. Tasty dishes, and then I took a bite of tiger skin green pepper, and suddenly there was a spicy taste in my mouth. I picked up the tea cup next to me and took a sip."Why is this dish so spicy?"

Qibao smiled and said, "Grandpa Tong, of course the pepper is spicy. Please taste it carefully. Is there anything besides spicy?"

Shopkeeper Tong sighed and said, "Not to mention, although this chili is spicy, one bite makes you want to take a second bite. It's so spicy, especially when the weather is cold, eating a bite of chili will definitely warm your body." It's so delicious!" After saying that, he tasted other dishes and couldn't stop eating. He didn't stop until his stomach was full.

After taking a sip of tea, I thought to myself, "These dishes are really good. I wonder what price you want to sell them for?"

Mr. Xu said, "Shopkeeper Tong, there is no other restaurant that has these vegetables. These are the only vegetables. And as long as we cooperate with Shopkeeper Tong, these dishes will not appear in the second restaurant."

Shopkeeper Tong heard what he said and said, "Although these vegetables are rare, if the cost is too high, the price of the dishes will not be cheap, which will also affect the business. I can buy these vegetables for up to fifteen cents per catty. What do you think?"

Qibao felt that the price was appropriate, so he agreed with his grandfather, but he had to sign a contract.

Therefore, Mr. Xu drew up a contract with the shopkeeper according to Qibao's wishes, in duplicate, and it was clearly marked on it that these vegetables were only for the Zuixianlou family, and Zuixianlou could not lower the price for other reasons in the later period. Both parties were equal partners. .

After weighing the vegetables brought by Qibao and the others, the eight baskets of vegetables totaled [-] kilograms and sold for [-]. After walking in the direction of the academy, a few people said goodbye to shopkeeper Tong and set off in the direction of the academy.

Here, shopkeeper Tong sent a few people away, then went to the study room in the backyard without stopping, picked up a brush and wrote down the whole matter, put it in an envelope, and ordered the clerk to send someone to deliver it to the boss as quickly as possible.

Grandpa Xu took his sons to a school called Chunqiu Academy and asked the master there about the admission requirements. The academy gave away five taels of silver every year and prepared pens, inks, paper and inkstones by himself, and asked them to register first tomorrow. Children can only enter school when they are [-] years old, and children who are too young cannot sit still in class.

Several people went to the pastry shop to buy some pastries, and then went to the meat stall to cut a few kilograms of meat, and then rushed towards Xujiacun.
