Chapter 173 Imitation
Bieye thought for a while.

"Let's buy a shop first. After we have a shop, we can recruit staff. Then we can relax a bit."

"only……"

Gu Rao laughed and said, "If you have something to say, just say it, why are you hesitating? Is there anything we can't say between us?"

Bie Ye was a little helpless.

"You got that money from selling jewelry."

Gu Rao knew what he was thinking about.

"We are husband and wife, my money belongs to you, and your money belongs to me. Why do we divide it so clearly?"

"You can't make money by keeping money. It's better to invest it if you keep it there and grow maggots."

Bieye was used to hearing words from his wife that he had never heard before.

"What is an investment?"

Gu Rao explained briefly to him.

"Investment is investing money to achieve a certain purpose, just like buying a shop for convenience and earning more money. Money makes money."

The next day, after Gu Rao and Bie Ye got up, they prepared the things they would sell today, and then Bie Ye went to water the fields, while Gu Rao guarded the stall.

After Bie Ye came back, she went to Carpenter Tan's house to order a batch of larger cups.

The [-] cups I ordered for the first time were used up in less than two days, and then I ordered [-] more, and [-] have been delivered, and there are still [-] left to be made.

Tan Song smiled when he saw Gu Rao.

"Did the cup run out so soon?"

Gu Rao said, "It's not used up yet, but I want to order a bigger cup this time, and I'm here to discuss the price with you."

Tan Song asked, "How big is it?"

Gu Rao said, "Twice as big as the original one."

Tan Song thought for a moment.

"Bamboo cups, one hundred large cups, add five Wen to the original small cups, and wooden cups, how about adding ten Wen to the original small cups?"

"This price is already very fair. I only give you such a favorable price because you are a long-term customer."

Gu Rao didn't have to bargain every time, and he could see that Carpenter Tan's price this time was very sincere, so he said directly, "Okay, let's calculate according to this price, and make me two hundred big bamboo milk tea cups." , three hundred large wooden milk tea cups."

A deposit of [-] Wen was given.

Yuan Ke sat in front of his shop with a sad face.

"Our price has been set low enough, four fen a bowl, how could we still not buy it, but go to the casserole rice noodle shop to buy milk tea?"

"What's the difference between their milk tea and our milk tea?"

"Isn't it the same taste?"

Liu Xiaomei just came back from inquiring about the news, her face was livid.

"They have a new product!"

Yuan Ke frowned.

"When did this happen?"

Liu Xiaomei rolled her eyes, and said to the useless man in front of her with an ugly expression, "You are still in business, and you don't even know when or what new products will be released!"

"I just went back to my mother's house yesterday, and you left so much milk tea at a loss. If you can't sell it all, don't you know what to do? It's a pity to throw away so much milk tea!"

Yuan Ke said helplessly, "By the afternoon, I was already selling a bowl for three Wen, but those customers just didn't buy it, and said that we are cheap and not good."

Liu Xiaomei took a sip.

"They deserve the cheap ones, but if they're too expensive, they'll cry for their parents and be reluctant to buy them!"

Yuan Ke asked, "Then what should we do now?"

Liu Xiaomei said, "We haven't made much money at the price of four Wen, and it's impossible to lower it. Before their family produced milk tea cups, our business was affected."

"Now, their family has released two new milk teas, one is called sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed with small taro ball milk tea, and the other is called full cup of red pomelo. The guests like it very much. We can only make these two milk teas as soon as possible."

Yuan Ke was confused.

"Small taro balls stuffed with sweet-scented osmanthus? A cup full of red pomelo? Just from the name, I don't know what it is, nor what materials are used. How can I imitate it?"

Liu Xiaomei was once again depressed by her husband's stupidity.

Why did she marry such a fool when she was such a smart person?

"Can't hear it, can't see it, can't taste it?"

"We are no longer in front of those couples. If we buy it ourselves, they will definitely not sell it to us. Let someone buy it for us."

"Now the customers are looking for fresh products. When the freshness wears off, they will still come to buy our cheaper products. I don't believe that couple can keep producing new products!"

Yuan Ke asked again, "What about the leftover milk tea from yesterday?"

Liu Xiaomei went to the back kitchen to have a look, took a spoonful to taste the taste, then frowned, and said angrily, "The sky is so big, the taste has changed a bit after one night, the guests must be able to taste it , I’m afraid these are not available.”

Yuan Ke was reluctant to throw it away.

"I put it in the water tank yesterday, and separated it with cold water. I didn't expect that the smell still changed. There are so many left. It's a pity to throw it away."

He was rarely wise.

"Let's at least earn our money back? Let's sell these stale ones for two cents a bowl. Those who are not willing to spend money and want to drink milk tea will definitely be willing to buy them."

Liu Xiaomei hesitated for a moment.

"What if someone gets drunk and asks us to settle the score?"

Yuan Ke didn't take it seriously.

"A person with a delicate body will not buy it cheaply. People who buy our leftover milk tea greedy for a cheap price, how can they be so delicate that they will have diarrhea after drinking milk tea that has a little taste?"

"Besides, they eat so much in a day, we must drink our milk tea and have diarrhea?"

"As long as we don't admit it, it's useless to settle accounts with us!"
-
Zhang's Milk Tea Shop.

Zhang Laicai was pacing back and forth in the shop, with blisters around the corner of his mouth, it could be seen that he hadn't eaten or slept well recently, he was so angry that he could feel it even one meter away from him.

Lu Xiaoqi persuaded, "Boss, stop wandering around, my eyes are dazzled, can't we sit down and think of a way?"

Zhang Laicai sat down obediently, but still sighed.

"I saw so many people buying milk tea, I thought the milk tea business would make more money, so I rented a shop for the milk tea business, but now the business is so bad, and the money I earn every day is not enough to pay the rent of the shop every day. Go on, sooner or later we have to pay off the family property!"

Lu Xiaoqi was also a little emotional.

"I didn't expect that customers would be so convinced of the milk tea from the casserole rice noodle shop, even if we sell it at a lower price, they would not come to our place."

"What's more, the Yuan family deliberately sells it cheaper than us by a penny these days. The Yuan family, Bie Ye, and Gu Rao snatched all the customers away. We can't even drink soup."

Mentioning the Yuan family made Zhang Laicai furious again.

"Fortunately, it wasn't our business that was robbed. The Yun family is probably in a hurry now. No one bought their milk tea, and they refused to lower the price just like us."

Lu Xiaoqi was worried.

"The Yun family mainly sells cakes. Sometimes when people go to buy cakes, they buy milk tea by the way. Besides, those who are willing to buy cakes, do they need that little money?"

"They have a regular source of customers, but we don't. Their situation is much better than ours. Now it seems that we are in the most embarrassing situation."

"In a short time, maybe our milk tea shop will be the first one to be forced to close down."

Zhang Laicai heard the same thing.

"The casserole rice noodle shop released a new product yesterday. I was so angry yesterday that I forgot to buy it and study it. You can buy it now."

"This time we must imitate the new product faster than the Yuan family and the Yun family!"

Lu Xiaoqi obeyed her husband.

"I'm going right now."
