When Mingyue came to the city, Meng's mother and her husband were actually a little dissatisfied. Meng's father also told Meng's mother that he suspected that his daughter had made a mistake in marrying Zhou Sanming. Country people are country people after all. Seeing Zhou Sanming's success, all the poor relatives came to him...
But now, all those messy thoughts of Meng's mother are gone. She just thinks that her daughter has really chosen the right person to marry. Not to mention how much Zhou Sanming loves his daughter, just say that Zhou Mingyue is a promising person.
The girl has only been in the city for a few days, but she already has enough money to open a shop. With this ability, it's hard to say who will be following whom in the future.
And to be realistic, Zhou Mingyue has no plans to remarry, and Zhou Sanming has such a good relationship with her, so who knows how much benefit he can get from it.
Now Meng Ma's attitude towards Mingyue is as if she is looking at the God of Wealth, her eyes are shining.
Then, Meng's mother started thinking about asking her husband to find a way to get Mingyue a good job.
She knew that there was a noodle shop near the factory that was not doing well and was about to close down. However, because the location was good, many people were eyeing it. If she wanted to take it over, she would need not only money but also connections...
Since the matter was not yet settled, Meng's mother did not mention it.
Mingyue didn't notice Meng Ma's expression at all. She was just talking to the families of the employees living in the tube-shaped buildings.
Ask them to let her know if they have any news about a store for rent, and if the deal is successful, she will definitely give them a reward.
No matter what everyone thought in their hearts, they all agreed to it verbally.
Seeing that it was getting late, Mingyue refused Meng Ma's invitation to stay for dinner and returned to her own rental house.
She simply steamed a few steamed buns, fried two vegetarian dishes, and went to find Zhou Chengming to come over for dinner.
After finishing the meal and clearing the table, Zhou Chengming did not leave immediately, but asked Mingyue about her future plans.
After all, there are too many food trucks selling cold dishes now. Not only has Mingyue's business been greatly impacted, but even Zhou Chengming's mood has been affected. He is afraid that this business can no longer be done.
"Brother Chengming, don't worry. I plan to open a cold dish store next. Then we can also sell braised food in our store, and then..."
Mingyue did not hide anything and talked about her next plans.
Opening stores, promotion, new store activities, branding, launching group purchase discounts and door-to-door delivery services...
Listening to Mingyue's vision of the future, Zhou Chengming's anxiety and confusion disappeared, replaced by a surging feeling in his chest.
Although he didn't know where Mingyue got so many fresh ideas, as long as he put himself in the shoes of those customers, he found that if Mingyue's store really opened, he would definitely be happy to pay.
He nodded vigorously, his expression even more excited than Mingyue: "What you said, I think it's reliable. Okay, Mingyue, as long as you have an idea in mind, I will listen to you and do whatever you say."
"I don't plan to set up a stall in the next few days, so, Brother Chengming, can you help me..."
With more food carts selling cold dishes, the competition has become more intense. The price Mingyue had set before had long been knocked down by those short-sighted cold dish owners. Now it is not as easy to make money by continuing to sell cold dishes as before. It is better to calm down and do the right thing first.
Mingyue asked Zhou Chengming to help keep an eye on the billboard company making billboards, and to go to the market more often to negotiate prices with the vegetable vendors to ensure that the supply of vegetables and meat can keep up in the future...
Now Zhou Chengming was full of energy and accepted Mingyue's arrangement without hesitation. Mingyue was also busy looking for a store, a construction team, and decoration workers...
However, Mingyue had never expected that someone would come to her door just three days after she stopped setting up her stall.
When Mingyue heard the knock on the door that day, she had already been up for a while and was preparing breakfast.
When Mingyue opened the door and saw someone, she was stunned for a moment before revealing a puzzled expression: "Comrade, what are you doing?"
Standing outside the door was the young man who had come to buy cold dishes before. He looked a little uncomfortable, but more nervous. "Well, I just want to ask, have you been busy these days? Why haven't I seen you set up a stall recently?"
Before Mingyue opened her mouth to explain, the young man said quickly: "The taste of your cold dishes is really good." He raised his thumb, "This. I have a poor appetite in the summer. I couldn't help it before, but now I have to rely on your cold dishes to survive."
Mingyue thought it was funny and shook her head: "I have been busy with some things recently, but there should be a lot of cold dish stalls outside now, you can try other ones."
The young man smiled bitterly: "The taste of your restaurant is really incomparable to others. I have tried several cold dishes sold outside, and they are either too salty and bitter, or they have no salt and no taste, or they are reluctant to use oil..."
If he really couldn't find any meal replacements, he wouldn't have come to me, right
"Oh, then wait for me." Mingyue thought for a moment and said.
She asked the young man to wait at the door and took out a bottle of hot and sour sauce from the kitchen. "I remember you like hot and sour food. Take this bottle of hot sauce home and eat it. I'll say hello to you in a few days when I'm done with my work here!"
The young man was a little touched when he took the sauce. He didn't expect that after buying it two or three times, the proprietress had remembered his taste.
He repeatedly promised that he would come back to buy cold dishes, and then went back with a silly smile on his face.
Mingyue chuckled and shook her head. She became more confident in her store and felt that the opening of the store could not be delayed any longer.
Mingyue was originally thinking about walking around a few more times, but when she felt sleepy, someone handed her a pillow.
Mingyue had just finished breakfast when Meng's mother came over with Baoer.
"I heard that there is a store for rent near Lao Meng's factory. It's located at Sandaokou. You know that place is good. There are big factories around it. It's good for any business. But I asked Lao Meng to ask, and they want this much rent a month." Meng's mother made a sixteen gesture and looked at Mingyue's expression: "Mingyue, do you have any ideas?"
Just hearing about the location of this store, Mingyue's eyes lit up. As for the idea, it was definitely too good to be true!
"Aunt, I can accept the rent. Can Uncle Meng help me contact the landlord to view the house?"
When Meng's mother heard Mingyue's words, she knew that the matter was most likely settled, "Okay, I'll ask Lao Meng to talk to someone."
Mingyue also knew that these days one has to rely on personal connections to get things done, and of course she couldn't let Meng's mom and dad work in vain.
"Then I'll go visit Uncle Meng in the afternoon,"
After Meng's mother took Bao'er away, Mingyue went to the tobacco and liquor store and spent a lot of money to buy branded cigarettes and liquor, preparing to give a thank-you gift to Meng's father.
Regardless of whether things succeed or not, the proper etiquette should still be observed.
