Chapter 54 Cooperation
Mrs. Zhou went to the backyard to find Zhou Xing, and asked him to chase old man Zhou and Zhou Zhoulang, "Xiaoxing, hurry up, go after your grandfather and your second uncle, that is, shopkeeper Shi from Xianweilou, who said he had something to say. "

Zhou Xing said, "Grandma, I'll go right away." After speaking, Zhou Xing ran from the backyard to the front yard, looking for Old Man Zhou and Zhou Zhoulang.

Fortunately, not long after old man Zhou and Zhou Zhoulang went out, Zhou Xing chased them for a while and caught up with them.

He supported his knees and shouted out of breath, "Master, Second Uncle, Grandma said that shopkeeper Shi from Xianwei Building is here, looking for you."

Old man Zhou and Zhou Zhoulang turned their heads when they heard the shout.

Zhou Zhoulang asked, "Xiaoxing, are you sure it's shopkeeper Shi?"

Zhou Xing said, "I don't know, it was Grandma who asked me to call you, but there is a carriage in front of our house, it should be."

Zhou Zhoulang said to old man Zhou, "Father, Shopkeeper Shi is here. I guess it's because of the bamboo shoots. Let's go back?"

Old man Zhou glanced at his tall and straight son, "Then let's go, the bamboo shoots in the mountains can be dug later."

Old man Zhou and Zhou Zhoulang walked back.

When I got home, I saw shopkeeper Shi there.

The old man Zhou was not good at words, after a brief greeting, it was Zhou Zhoulang who talked to shopkeeper Shi.

Lang said on Tuesday, "Uncle Shi, are you here specifically?"

Shopkeeper Shi looked at Zhou Zhoulang pretending to be confused without being annoyed, and said with a smile, "You boy, why don't you guess what I'm here for?"

Tuesday Lang smiled and said without saying anything, "What's the matter with Uncle Shi, it's just that Erlang really didn't expect that there is something worth visiting yourself."

Hearing this, shopkeeper Shi didn't laugh, and said straight to the point, "Old man Zhou, old sister-in-law, Erlang, I'm here this time to talk to you about the supply of bamboo shoots to my restaurant. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a fair price. It won't make you lose."

As he said that, shopkeeper Shi looked at Lang on Tuesday and said, "Erlang has been working as a bookkeeper for me for so long, and he knows me well. I always speak straight and don't like to do things around the corner. If you think it's okay to do it, let's Just talk about it."

The old man Zhou was already dizzy by shopkeeper Shi's words. He looked at shopkeeper Shi and asked in a trembling voice, "What does shopkeeper Shi mean by wanting us to supply bamboo shoots for the restaurant?"

This, this, this is a great thing. There are so many sour bamboo shoots pickled at home, and there are many dried bamboo shoots. If this can be done, the family will have a lot of money.

Shopkeeper Shi nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, Brother Zhou, that's what I mean."

Old man Zhou looked up at Mrs. Zhou.

The old lady Zhou said, "Shopkeeper Shi, this is a good thing, but the old man and I don't understand this, let Erlang talk to you."

Old man Zhou nodded immediately, "Yes, yes, shopkeeper Shi, let my second child talk to you, we don't understand."

Shopkeeper Shi asked Zhou Zhoulang, "What does Erlang think?"

Tuesday Lang said, "Cooperation is fine, but I see what you mean, Uncle Shi, that you want our house to be exclusively for the restaurant? Can't you sell it out?"

Shopkeeper Shi said, "Yes, except for your own use and selling at your own stall, you are not allowed to supply to other restaurants and restaurants. The price is the same as last time. The sour bamboo shoots are ten yuan a catty, and the dried bamboo shoots are thirty yuan a catty." .”

Zhou Zhoulang thought for a while and said, "Uncle Shi, I think it's feasible."

Upon hearing this, shopkeeper Shi took out the contract that he had prepared early in the morning from his sleeve, and handed it to Zhou Zhoulang, "Erlang, take a look at this contract, if there is no problem, we will sign it."

Zhou Zhoulang took the deed and looked at it. He felt that there was no problem, and immediately said, "Okay, I'll get a pen."

After that, Zhou Zhoulang came to the house, took the brush and ink, went back to the main room, signed his name on the deed, and pressed his fingerprints.

"Uncle Shi, take a look."

Shopkeeper Shi took a look at it, and gave it to Zhou Zhoulang, "You guys keep this, so, our cooperation will officially start today."

Zhou Zhoulang took it and put away the deed, "Yes, I also want to thank Uncle Shi."

Shopkeeper Shi laughed and said, "Why are you thanking me? I thank you. Since your sour bamboo shoots started selling, the turnover rate in the building has increased a lot, and the profit has even increased compared to last month." Quite a lot, it’s only a few days’ work.”

If it's the end of the month, I'm afraid I have to double it.

Zhou Yilang had expected early in the morning that the sour and dried bamboo shoots would be popular after Xianwei went upstairs, so he waited unhurriedly until Shopkeeper Shi took the initiative to find him.

But I didn't expect that shopkeeper Shi would come in person, so when he first heard shopkeeper Shi was coming, Zhou Zhoulang had the same reaction as old man Zhou, wondering if he heard it wrong.

After hearing what he said, Zhou Zhoulang finally understood why Shopkeeper Shi had to go there himself.

He smiled and said, "It's also Shi Shuhui who knows the pearl, otherwise this bamboo shoot would not be loved by so many people."

Hearing this, shopkeeper Shi felt a lot more satisfied with Zhou Zhoulang. He not only knows how to do things, but also behaves well. He will not be bad in the future.

No wonder the Zhou family was able to stand up again so quickly.

Thinking about it, shopkeeper Shi looked at Zhou Zhoulang again, if Moran...

He shook his head. Although Zhou's family is good, Erlang is also good, but after all, it is in the village, if it is Mo Lan... I am afraid that the child will not be able to bear the hardship.

He was just such a girl, and he couldn't bear it.

Shopkeeper Shi shook his head, threw out the absurd thoughts in his head, and said, "Erlang, our cooperation is also settled. There is still something to do in the restaurant, so I will go back first. You first bring me two jars of sour bamboo shoots, and I will take them back. You will send the rest to me at the end of the month, and then you will send it to me at the end of each month, measure it, and then decide after this month is over."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhoulang went to the corner of the stove house to bring out two jars of pickled sour bamboo shoots. Old man Zhou brought out a steelyard and weighed the quantity, which was a little over [-] catties.

Lang said on Tuesday, "Uncle Shi, there are 21 catties in total, so let's count as [-] catties."

Shopkeeper Shi took out two hundred copper coins from his sleeve, "Okay, take the money, and carry it to the carriage for me, Tanzi, and bring it back when you deliver the bamboo shoots in two days."

Zhou Zhou Lang moved an altar with Old Man Zhou and put it in the carriage.

Shopkeeper Shi got into the carriage and said, "Let's go." He turned his horse and drove the carriage away.

Before leaving, shopkeeper Shi turned his head and glanced at Chu Xinghe, who had never made a sound in the courtyard. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, which soon disappeared.

Zhou Xing looked at the money in his second uncle's hand, his eyes were hot.Chu Xinghe grabbed his back collar and asked coldly, "Do you still want to learn?"

Zhou Xing nodded hurriedly, "Learn, learn, Brother Chu, can you let go first?"

Chu Xinghe glanced at Zhou Xing, and threw him away in disgust, "Hurry up." After speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the backyard.

Zhou Xing hurriedly followed.

Seeing the two walking towards the backyard again, Mrs. Zhou wondered, "When did the two get along so well?"

Two days ago, she blushed and had a thick neck because of a few words, but now she has become someone else's little follower.
