Chapter 139: 139 Major Clients (Third Update)
After trying it, Wang Genlan was full of confidence, "Manager, why don’t you also give it a try? This is the best chili sauce I’ve ever tasted. I believe these chili sauces will definitely make their way out of Xijiang County, beyond the province, and get known by many more people."
Manager Zhou was skeptical. After all, it was just a bottle of chili sauce. How good could it be? And even if it was that good, could it really replace meals to the extent that a bottle would last a year?
Tentatively, he took a taste and it hit his mouth...
"This—." Manager Zhou loved spicy food and always enjoyed it heartily, but this flavor was indeed the best he had tasted.
How to put it, the spiciness wasn’t overwhelming, and the first taste was savory followed by spiciness, then came the freshness, entirely different from what he made at home.
The other two, seeing that Wang Genlan and the manager both praised it, couldn’t resist trying it as well.
After their taste test, smiles appeared on their faces, "I feel like I’ve lived all these years for nothing."
Just ordinary chili, yet achieved to this extent.
"If everyone wants to stay, then let’s start cleaning. We are a food factory, and safety and hygiene come first. After cleaning, I’ll assign your duties." The factory was just starting, and too many people would be unwieldy for management, but a few like this were manageable.
"Yes." With confidence in the product, everyone immediately specified their roles and started working. In less than half a day, the factory was transformed, clean and tidy, which was quite comforting to see.
"Su, how do we calculate the time?" Manager Zhou, responsible for production, definitely needed to understand the wage calculation, "How much per hour, and how many hours a day is appropriate for a worker to work?"
"I’ve written it all down here." Xiaofeng pulled out a notebook for Manager Zhou, "Work starts at 8 AM, off for lunch at 12 PM, back at 2 PM to 6 PM, no overtime in the evening for now."
For such a job category, it could be said to be very easy. She heard that in the clothing factories in the county, they worked overtime until late, and started again early in the morning.
Since it was piecework, everyone worked as if their lives depended on it, striving to earn the highest wages.
Since it was their first day, Xiaofeng naturally had to teach them hands-on. They had done these tasks at home as well, so they just needed to be told the process.
Due to the numerous people, her father alone couldn’t manage buying all the chili, so her aunt was helping as well. Although the factory wasn’t crowded, handling several hundred pounds a day was no big deal.
Xiaofeng was about to leave when she saw a woman selling tea eggs leading a man in a plaid shirt standing at the factory gate. The tea egg seller smiled upon seeing Xiaofeng, "You must be Xiaofeng."
She got along well with He Ximei at the train station and knew she had a daughter named Xiaofeng.
"You are?" Xiaofeng looked at her, guessing she was the aunt who sold tea eggs that her aunt mentioned.
"My surname is Wang, just call me Auntie Wang." Auntie Wang parked her tricycle impressively, moved forward, and glanced around the factory, "Where’s your mom? She’s not here, is she?"
"Auntie Wang, she and my dad went back home, are you looking for her?" He Ximei certainly hadn’t mentioned that she was a step-daughter, and since the other party didn’t bring it up, she naturally wouldn’t burst that bubble at this time.
"It’s like this." Auntie Wang laughed heartily, "This is Mr. Duan, he bought your mom’s chili sauce last time at the train station, and today he asked here, wondering if I know you all, as he wants to place an order."
See, other’s chili sauces even have returning customers, while her tea eggs were forgotten after eaten once.
Only then did Xiaofeng notice the other party, a young man in his early twenties dressed in a suit and tie, looking ambitious. She reached out to him, "Hello, I’m Su Xiaofeng, the owner of Pear Blossom Brand Food Factory."
"Hello, Miss Su." Duan Gongquan extended his hand as well, "I’m Duan Gongquan, the procurement officer for the Provincial City Grand Hotel. Last time I passed by here, I bought a few bottles of chili sauce at the train station. After returning, I gave them to our chef. According to him, the dishes made with your chili sauce tasted very good, and he asked if we could stock up on more as they plan to develop some new dishes based on that flavor."
Xiaofeng hadn’t expected customers from Provincial City to seek her out before she even visited there.
"Let’s talk in my office." Xiaofeng, with a light smile on her face, "Our factory just opened today, and to have a customer come right to our door, Mr. Duan, you’re really our God of Wealth. Please come inside."
"Haha, it’s just that your products are good, I gave it to them one day, and the next day they were already chasing me for more. I had no choice but to come here," Duan Gongquan had not expected the inventor of the chili sauce to be a young woman, and his mood for negotiation improved significantly.
"I was actually planning a trip to Provincial City in the next couple of days." Xiaofeng indeed had such a plan, "I was wondering, Mr. Duan, if you want the delivery all at once or in batches."
The shelf life of the chili sauce was long, and it even tasted better after being stored for a while.
"Before I came, I was worried that your production pace might not keep up, as our hotel has a decent volume of customers, and the daily requirement is not small. Let’s put it this way, we need about a hundred bottles a day, which adds up to at least three thousand bottles a month."
This quantity might seem astronomical in a county, but Provincial City certainly has its advantages. Recollecting something, Duan Gongquan added, "Since your factory just opened today, and our head chef is pressing for the stuff, I’ll take back whatever you have tomorrow, and in a few days, you can deliver the first batch here, making sure it’s no less than a thousand bottles."
This would allow them to develop new dishes, and once the chili sauce arrived, they could promptly introduce new dishes.
After Duan Gongquan left, Auntie Wang held onto Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, does your family wholesale chili sauce? Your mom hasn’t been able to go to the train station to sell recently, right? I want to wholesale some to sell along with the tea eggs. If someone asks, I’ll sell it, and this would be another way to boost your sales, wouldn’t it?"
Those who had bought before were now coming back; the product was definitely good. With something good, she naturally was also willing to sell it.
