Chapter 287: Satisfied with such a partner
by Jessie@AFNCCWei Ruo, who was being looked at by Fan Chengxu’s cold eyes, however, reacted as usual, the expression on her face unchanged, and the teacup in her hand was slowly put down.
“Boss Fan, we are all businessmen, and businessmen are concerned about harmony and wealth don’t you think so?” Wei Ru Xu said.
“Harmony makes money, Duke Xu has no sincerity, what’s the point of talking about harmony and making money?” Fan Chengxu asked rhetorically.
Wei Ruo analyzed with Fan Chengxu unhurriedly, “I can’t help it if Boss Fan really wants to cut off my financial path in Taizhou Prefecture, but Boss Fan, you think about it clearly, whether this deal is cost-effective or not.”
Wei Ruo continued, “All the cooperation between us so far, are able to bring benefits to each other, whether it is five spice powder oyster sauce, or black tea, you and I are profitable, even if this white wine is not exclusively for your Drunken Immortal Residence, you will not earn less silver.”
“If this cooperation is broken today, Boss Fan naturally has a loss, cooperation is profit, anger is loss, why should Boss Fan make us both lose?”
After Wei Ruo finished speaking, he calmly refilled his already empty teacup.
The leisurely and indifferent appearance of the man was born to be compared to even Fan Chengxu.
Fan Chengxu didn’t respond right away, but gazed at Wei Ruo for a while.
The onlookers were unable to guess his inner thoughts through his current demeanor, while Xiu Mei remained tense, if this Fan Cheng Xu was unethical and did something to the young lady, she would have to react quickly to ensure her well-being.
After a long time, the chill on Fan Chengxu’s face receded and was replaced by his usual smile.
“That’s right, I’m a businessman, there’s no reason to get into a lose-lose situation with Brother Wo right. What’s more, I also quite like working with Brother Wo right, and I’m very optimistic about our future, if I stop at the present moment, I’m afraid I’ll regret it later.”
Fan Chengxu still conceded defeat first, but he didn’t feel any pain, on the contrary, he was somewhat vaguely happy.
Immediately after that, Fan Chengxu asked Wei Ruo, “Then how does Brother Wo right intend to sell this liquor?”
“Within the Taizhou Prefecture, I’ll only sell liquor to you, Drunken Immortal Residence, a restaurant, but it’s only a restaurant, I’ll sell it to other stores as they are.” Wei Ruo stated his request.
Compared to the agreement that the five-spice powder and oyster sauce would only be supplied to the Drunken Immortal Residence and her own store within the Taizhou Prefecture, the white wine Wei Ruo would still have other sales channels, selling to individuals or other stores was possible, just not other restaurants.
Although it was just this close, Wei Ruo was actually able to obtain a much higher degree of freedom, and was almost not subject to the constraints of Fan Chengxu.
“Fine, I accept.” Fan Chengxu was quite satisfied with this offer from Wei Ruo, at least he was the only one in the restaurant.
“Also I have a limited daily supply of this wine, one jar a day.” Wei Ruo replied.
“Only one jar? That’s too little, isn’t it?” Boss Shen blurted out.
How can one jar of wine be enough to sell in their huge Drunken Immortal House?
Wei Ruo said, “This is all I can produce in terms of wine production, and I can’t produce any more.”
Boss Shen said, “Then why don’t you recruit more people, Mr. Xu is not worried about selling this wine, if you can only sell one jar per day, that’s too much of a loss!”
Wei Ruoshang smiled and replied, “Not much more is produced, only this much is sold every day.”
“But ……”
Boss Shen was about to say something else when he was interrupted by Fan Chengxu.
“Since Mr. Xu has said so, then we will sell at most one jar per day from now on.” Fan Chengxu had a smile at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were filled with approval of Wei Ruo’s words.
“As for the pricing of this jar of wine, I’m selling Boss Fan forty-eight taels, how much Boss Fan can sell depends on Boss Fan’s skill.” Wei Ruo said.
The first altar of wine Fan Chengxu helped Wei Ruo sell fifty taels of silver, and if all the subsequent wines were sold at this price, then Fan Chengxu could earn two taels of silver per altar of wine.
Hearing this price, Boss Shen was again shocked, the price asked for is not too high, right?
That way they don’t make much profit on this white wine at Drunken Immortal!
Boss Shen didn’t dare to say anything more at the moment, but instead looked cautiously at Fan Chengxu.
Surprisingly to Boss Shen’s surprise, Fan Chengxu didn’t show any signs of anger this time, instead, he agreed to Wei Ruo’s conditions very painfully.
“Okay, forty-eight taels a pot, one pot supplied daily.”
“Then it’s a deal.” Wei Ruo said.
“One last question, what is the name of this wine, Mr. Xu?”
“Thyme.”
“Thyme? Indeed, this wine has a mellow flavor, as its name suggests.” Fan Chengxu recognized, “I see, I’ll look forward to Mr. Xu’s Thyme from tomorrow.”
Wei Ruo raised his teacup, “I’ll toast Boss Fan with tea instead of wine, wishing Boss Fan a prosperous business and a lot of money every day.”
Fan Chengxu laughed lightly as he picked up his glass and clinked it with Wei Ruo, “I hope that the next time we clink glasses with brother Wo right is without getting drunk.”
“There’s a chance.” Wei Ruo said.
Wei Ruo and Fan Chengxu talked for a while longer about the previous black tea business, the progress of composting over at the tea garden.
An hour later, Wei Ruo left the Drunken Immortal Residence.
After Wei Ruo left, Boss Shen inquired Fan Chengxu in puzzlement: “Your Excellency, Duke Xu sold you forty-eight pieces of silver for an altar of wine, Drunken Immortal Residence barely made any money, why did you agree to it?”
“Do you think Xu Wo right sold me white wine alone?”
“What is that?” Boss Shen still didn’t understand.
“As long as his Thyme is good enough, then if he only sells to this one restaurant of mine, the guests will come to my Drunken Immortal Residence on the strength of this wine of his, and in this way it will bring more guests to my Drunken Immortal Residence.”
On the surface, Drunken Immortal House only earns two taels of silver for a bottle of wine, but in reality, through Thyme Drunken Immortal House can earn more customer traffic and other spending.
Boss Shen came to a realization, “So that’s how it is, Your Excellency is far-sighted, it’s my subordinate’s shallow vision.”
“You are indeed a bit shallow, Xu Wo right can see much more clearly than you.” Fan Chengxu laughed lightly.
“Gongzi seems to be not only not angry, but also somewhat happy?” Boss Shen was even more puzzled.
Obviously, in this negotiation with Mr. Xu today, Mr. Xu lost the battle and made concessions, so why does Mr. Xu seem quite happy?
“This Taizhou capital is a little too boring for me, and it’s rare to meet a business partner who is both smart and capable, so why wouldn’t I be happy?”
Fan Chengxu had a smile in his eyes, and the frequency of shaking his fan was noticeably lighter than usual.
###
Thyme is finally back in stock at the Drunkard’s House, and diners who had their appetites whetted a couple of days ago have been coming back for another taste.
Yet again, they were told that the wine was only sold one pot per day, with a maximum of two pots per person per day.
This is depressing.
But depressed as he was, he still had to run to the Drunken Immortal Residence early to make a reservation, lest he could not even drink these two pots.
Originally moved to want to buy wine gift Lu family a few people after inquiring about this news can not help but vent their anger, at least it is impossible to buy wine from the Drunken Immortal House to send.
