There are two brothers, Kang Youfu. The younger brother, Kang Youlu, has been making tofu with his parents since he was a child. His tofu making skills are very good. In the words of his father, Kang Tai, Kang Youlu is already better than the old in making tofu.
Compared with Kang Youlu, Kang Youfu, who has an out-of-the-box personality, has learned to make tofu from his father since he was a child, but the tofu he makes is not as good as his younger brother's.
But unlike the introverted Kang Youlu, Kang Youfu is a well-rounded and well-spoken person. He is a born businessman, and Kang Youfu has always been able to deal with people with ease.
The two brothers, one in charge of the outside and the other in charge of the inside, divide the work and cooperate, and the Kang family develops well in their hands. Moreover, dad Kangtai also said that the two brothers will not separate from each other in the future. The Kang family's tofu workshop will be managed by the two brothers together, and the two will learn from each other's strengths.
Both Kang Youfu brothers had no objections to their father's explanation, because they knew their strengths and weaknesses very well.
When it comes to making tofu, it is better to be prosperous than to be prosperous, but when it comes to doing business, it is better to be prosperous than to be prosperous. The two brothers have a very good relationship, and the Kang family is just an ordinary businessman who owns a tofu workshop, so it is perfect for the two to support each other and learn from each other's strengths.
People in the morning market gradually left, and Kang's tofu workshop gradually became deserted. Now it was still some time before the tofu was sold out. Kang Youfu had nothing to do, and he didn't need to intervene in the tofu making work later, so he was just in front. Stay.
There was no one around. After clearing away the tables, chairs and benches in the store, Zhu Shenzui asked Kang Youfu to sit down and chat. Kang Youfu was a person who loved making friends. Since Zhu Shenzui wanted to chat, he pulled up a stool and sat down, and started talking to Zhu Shenzui.
After chatting about the Kang family’s entrepreneurial past, including the origin of this tofu workshop, they gradually talked about the Kang family’s tofu business.
Under Zhu Shenzui's intentional or unintentional guidance, Kang Youfu naturally talked about the origins of their Kang family and Liu family.
As early as when Kang Youfu's grandfather, the Liu family began to use Kang's tofu. Mr. Liu who passed away before liked to eat Kang's tofu the most. Now Mr. Liu of the Liu family, Liu Shancheng, also likes to eat Kang's tofu. .
For this reason, the Liu family would ask the Kang family to deliver tofu to their door almost every three or five times, and each delivery would weigh thirty to fifty kilograms.
Just like yesterday, the Liu family sent someone to say hello and asked the Kang family to send thirty kilograms of tofu today, so when the first batch of tofu comes out, Kang Youfu will have to send it to the Liu family.
"So the Liu family can be considered regular customers of the Kang family?"
"This is natural!" Kang Youfu said with some pride: "My family has been delivering tofu to the Liu family for decades. Even though the Liu family has a high-walled compound, the Liu family cannot live without the Kang family's tofu."
"Haha, that's true. People always have some hobbies. Some people like to eat fish, some like to eat meat, and of course some people like to eat tofu. Besides, I haven't tasted your tofu, but I ate the tofu just now. Two big bowls, it tastes really good, I’ll take some back today, if it’s really good, I’ll come here more often in the future.”
"The relationship is good. I'll thank you for taking care of you first." Kang Youfu happily handed over to Zhu Shenzui, feeling very happy. Having a regular customer is a good thing for their tofu workshop.
Then, the topic continued with the Liu family, not to mention that because of the tofu supply relationship between the Kang family and the Liu family for many years, Kang Youfu knew a lot about the Liu family's situation. And since many years ago, Kang Youfu has helped deliver tofu to the Liu family on behalf of his father. There are not many people in the Liu family that he doesn't know.
This was an unexpected surprise for Zhu Shenzui. He didn't expect that he would get the source of the news from Kang Youfu after eating two bowls of bean curd. In the past few days, Zhu Shenzui and the others have been trying to find ways to get internal information about the Liu family, but the results are not good. Now that Kang Youfu is here, it will be much easier.
However, during the chat, Zhu Shenzui felt that although Kang Youfu was young, he was not a fool. He was a very smart and thoughtful young man.
When chatting with such a person, you must be careful when making sarcastic remarks. Zhu Shenzui did not want Kang Youfu to know his purpose without getting anything done. What's more, he just met Kang Youfu today, and he only learned about Kang Youfu from his mouth. I only know a few things here. It is currently uncertain whether Kang Youfu can be used, and how to use Kang Youfu to study the Liu family.
After all, Zhu Shenzui had been a civil servant and knew how to communicate with people. His chat with Kang Youfu was very effective. Although he got a lot of information about the Liu family from him, most of this information was not important, but no matter what, , today’s harvest is already an unexpected surprise.
Zhu Shenzui believed that it was right to start with Kang Youfu, but for the first time, he realized that some things should not be rushed. Make friends first, and then take your time. If you have the right direction, you will be sure next.
After chatting for a while, a voice calling Kang Youfu came from behind, and Kang Youfu finally realized that he had been talking to Zhu Shenzui for so long.
He got up and apologized and said that he had to go do some work. He had to deliver tofu to the Liu family first. When he came back, the next batch of tofu would be almost ready, and he would arrange it for Zhu Shenzui then.
Zhu Shenzui smiled and said he would wait and let him go about his business.
Kang Youfu rushed to the back, and a moment later he saw him walking out with a tofu burden. Seeing Zhu Shenzui looking at him, he smiled and pointed across the street, and then he steadily carried the burden. Walk towards Liu's house.
Watching Kang Youfu go straight across the street, and then walked a little further to the Liu family's mansion.
When he arrived at the side door, he saw Kang Youfu coming. The old gatekeeper took the initiative to say hello to him, and then let Kang Youfu in.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Shenzui felt more confident. Kang Youfu really wasn't bragging. The Kang family and the Liu family had been in contact for many years. If he hadn't often sent tofu to the Liu family, Kang Youfu wouldn't have gotten in so easily. The front door of the Liu family.
Kang Youfu stayed at Liu's house for almost a quarter of an hour before he came out. When he came out, his burden was still the same, but the tofu inside was empty. Needless to say, the things had been left at Liu's house.
Kang Youfu walked back easily, returned to the tofu shop, unloaded his burden, said hello to Zhu Shenzhui and went to the back.
Then, when the second batch of tofu came out, Kang Youfu was the first to help Zhu Shenzui weigh several kilograms of tofu. After weighing, he saw that Zhu Shenzui came empty-handed, so he found a bamboo basket and helped Zhu Shenzui pack it. , so that he can take it back.
After paying the money and thanking him, Zhu Shenzui smiled and said he would come back when he felt better after going back to eat. Kang Youfu was naturally very happy, and asked him to come directly to him when he came back next time. If he needed it for a long time in the future, he didn't have to come specially. It would be more convenient to leave an address and he would deliver it to his door regularly.
After bidding farewell to Kang Youfu, Zhu Shenzui returned home carrying the basket of tofu. Their main dish that night was boiled tofu.
What Kang Youfu said was absolutely correct. Their tofu was indeed outstanding. Even his sister-in-law Zhang said the tofu was good after eating his tofu, and even asked Zhu Shenzui where he bought the tofu.
Zhu Shenzui answered a few words casually. On the surface, Zhu Shenzui was ordinary, but in his heart he was always thinking about how to use this Kang Youfu.
In the days that followed, Zhu Shenzui often went back to Kang's tofu workshop to buy some tofu, and he became very familiar with Kang Youfu after going back and forth.
Every time he bought tofu, Zhu Shenzui would chat with Kang Youfu, and over time the two became friends.
Through Kang Youfu, Zhu Shenzhui found out a lot about the Liu family, but when he inquired more closely, Kang Youfu didn't say much. Although Kang Youfu likes to socialize with people, he is not the kind of person who keeps his mouth shut. As a small businessman, Kang Youfu knows the size very well. He has no worries about ordinary things, but when it comes to more detailed things , Kang Youfu would often avoid talking about it.
This situation made Zhu Shenzui not only not unhappy, but also very happy.
Judging from the information about the Liu family that Kang Youfu mentioned every time, he knew a lot about the Liu family, but he just kept silent about it. In this case, it was right for him to choose Kang Youfu as his breakthrough point. As long as he found an opportunity to capture Kang Youfu, then for him, the Liu family's secret would no longer be a secret.
But how can we defeat Kang Youfu? Zhu Shenzui thought about this for a long time. On this day, he went to Kang's Tofu Shop as usual. While buying tofu, he chatted with Kang Youfu for a few words. When leaving, Zhu Shenzui walked out and looked back. After taking a look at Kang's Tofu Shop, which was busy with people coming and going, I finally made up my mind.
