Su Qingluan didn't have much patience to accompany Xie Deshun in a painful scene with snot and tears. She looked at the other party complaining with a half-smile, but she couldn't stand it any longer, and she stopped talking. .
She raised her eyebrows: "Why don't you continue talking about your difficulties?"
Xie Deshun was a little embarrassed: "This... Isn't this because I am afraid that Mrs. Su will dislike me, a grown man, and wiping my tears will cause trouble to others."
Su Qingluan rolled her eyes in her heart, but on the surface she looked like she suddenly realized: "So this is all what the head of the Xie family, Mr. , Doing business requires long-term success, how can you maliciously speculate on prices just because of such a small profit?"
Hearing what Su Qingluan said, Xie Deshun was shocked: It is true that there were orders from above to increase profits as much as possible, but it was indeed his own initiative to maliciously speculate and drive up prices.
Although this can be regarded as relieving his master's worries, if Xie Xuanfan turns his back on him and abandons his troops to protect the car, he will no longer be a human being here!
Thinking of this, Xie Deshun was so frightened that a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and now he was really crying: "Hey, Madam Su, please calm down, we can discuss everything, right? We can discuss it easily."
Because he was not sure who else was behind Su Qingluan, Xie Deshun didn't know if she really had the ability to confront Xie Xuanfan.
The key point was that Xie Deshun couldn't afford the gamble, so he simply told the truth about the malicious price speculation.
Although Su Qingluan had guessed it a long time ago, he still looked very shocked: "Manager Xie, is it unethical for you to do this?"
Now that the matter has been exposed, Manager Xie has nothing to hide, but he also admitted that this malicious speculation has pushed up the price of jam entirely because Su Qingluan will not be able to produce new jam in the next six months, and so does he. I am worried that "Su Ji" will be imitated during this period.
Xie Deshun's words are not completely false. Even if this worry is not all the reasons for price speculation, it still accounts for a considerable proportion.
Su Qingluan also saw that he was not completely lying, so he smiled and said: "It is difficult to say that Su Ji will not be replaced, but it is also easy to say. I am naturally confident that the recipe for this jam will not be easy. I was copied, but you don’t have much confidence in my dry words compared to Manager Xie, right?”
This sentence was not polite, but it was also true, so Su Qing said meaningfully to Butler Xie: "An object cannot be replaced, except for its quality, it is also unforgettable emotionally - many roadside vendors , after a winter without selling a stall, regular customers will still miss you the next year, that’s the reason.”
To put it bluntly, in addition to the good taste of jam itself and making people miss it, it can also be "unforgettable" in other ways - of course, this is the job of Butler Xie.
Su Qingluan believed that with a person like Xie Deshun, he would be able to accomplish the task of "managing and shaping brand culture" very well - after all, she had already given him some tips, right?
in addition……
"Remember to let us guests know that our Su Ji's fruits are carefully selected from pure natural mountains and fields. This place has beautiful mountains and clear waters. The fruits absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and the taste is naturally different from other places."
Manager Xie originally believed in the concept that "food must be delicious and the quality of raw materials is very important." Later, he tasted wild berries produced in other places and found that the taste was indeed different from the ones in Huaxi Village, so he was even more convinced by what Su Qingluan said. .
Little did they know that the reason why the jam prepared by Su Qingluan was so sweet and sour was that apart from the taste of the fruit itself, a lot of effort was put into the later "seasoning".
Of course, Su Qingluan would not tell Xie Deshun the details, but Xie Deshun understood what Su Qingluan wanted to express: even if there are people who want to imitate, through appropriate operations, they can become "the imitation of others".
In the end, Su Qingluan signed another temporary contract with the Xie Mansion - since the price of jam has been raised, there is no sudden cut in the price, but this kind of malicious push up of the price is definitely not in line with the original price. Su Qingluan mentioned the sharing rules, so for this year's batch of high-priced jam, Su Qingluan would divide one or two gold for each jar.
Next spring, as a new batch of fruits grows, Su Qingluan can continue to expand the scale of production. Plus, it is a new year, and there will be plenty of reasons to "readjust prices" at that time.
When she went back, Su Qingluan was naturally still riding in Xie's carriage. She even asked Manager Xie for a hand warmer that could put hot coals in it.
Of course, Su Qingluan was not so shameless as to ask for it directly. At first, he planned to borrow it and put it in the carriage for the boy to bring back.
As a result, Xie Deshun said, "Since this gadget has won Madam Su's favor, I might as well give it to Su Qingzi to warm her hands."
Su Qingluan was not polite and accepted it with a smile, holding it in his hand, which indeed warmed his frozen hands.
Su Qingluan didn't feel very happy after going out and earning several hundred more gold. It's not that she suddenly became aloof and regarded money as dirt, but that all her attention was now attracted by another thing: why Xie Deshun was so anxious to maliciously increase the price of "Suji" jam.
Although Su Qingluan didn't take all of Xie Deshun's words as farts, he did only believe part of them.
Manager Xie may have acted on his own initiative, but to say that Xie Xuanfan was completely unaware of the manager's every move would be impossible for her to believe even to death.
It would be better to say that the Xie family is so "considerable" and uses the method of plucking feathers to make money, which is simply surprising - in her opinion, neither Manager Xie nor Xie Xuanfan himself should be willing to do this for such a small amount of money. So shortsighted.
That’s right, it’s just “this little money”.
From ten taels of gold per jar to twenty taels of gold, there is a total of about three to four thousand gold more.
For ordinary people, these three or four thousand gold may be a huge wealth that cannot be squandered in ten lifetimes. However, for a wealthy family like Xie Mansion, which has both a fief and a court salary, and even many fertile lands for its own shops, Although several thousand gold is not a small amount, it is not an "astronomical figure".
However, just such a small amount of money can make the masters and servants of the Xie family look so ugly - after all, malicious speculation can be effective in a short period of time, but will definitely be discovered as time goes by.
This was also the time when the temporary contract was signed. Su Qingluan told Xie Deshun that this "inflated price" situation could only last until this year at most. When a new batch of fruits comes in the spring next year, she will slowly lower the price. willing.
After all, the cooperation with Xie Mansion can be terminated at any time, but she wants to keep the "Su Ji" brand in her hands and run it well, but she doesn't want to ruin the brand at the beginning.
But... Su Qingluan frowned slightly: I don't know if it was her imagination, but she always felt that the Xie Mansion was raising money for some urgent matter.
Before she could figure it out, her stomach growled disrupting her thoughts.
