BXBX NOVEL Chapter 280 - 280: Supplier
Jian Qingqing painted a total of eight paintings. Two of them were given to Madam Guan, while the rest were given to Mother Jian.
“Mother, take these paintings back and hang them on your dessert shop. Dress them up.”
Mother Jian treasured these words and said, “Isn’t it a bit of a pity? Why don’t
Mother take them back and treasure them?”
“Treasure what? These are all my paintings. I’ll have as many as you want. The customers who enter the shop will be happy if you dress up the shop beautifully.”
Madam Guan said enviously, “That’s right, Sister Jian. Qingqing is your daughter. You can ask her to paint if you want. I’ll definitely hang these two paintings from Qingqing in my room. If you hang these beautiful paintings in your shop, I don’t want to leave.”
Madam Jian was more and more moved by their words. She imagined what it would look like to hang these paintings in the shop, but in the end, she agreed.
After painting and playing for almost a day, Jian Qingqing followed Madam Guan to look at the eggs. The chickens in Madam Guan’s farm were raised in captivity, but the manager of the farm did not dare to let these noble owners go to the Dirty Chicken Farm, instead, they moved all the eggs to a clean and spacious storeroom and placed them neatly in boxes.
Jian Qingqing checked them and found that each egg was very big. Looking at them in the light, they looked very healthy. Each egg was wrapped in thick rice leaves and was not afraid of being knocked.
Looking at the room full of eggs, Jian Qingqing asked, “Aunt Guan, how many eggs do you have?”
Madam Guan did not know about this, so the butler quickly replied, “Miss Jian, there are 12,000 eggs in total. Don’t worry, they are all picked out to incubate the eggs.’
Jian Qingqing thought for a moment. There were more than 700 hens in her chicken farm now. If each hen was allowed to incubate 10 eggs, 800 could incubate 8,000 eggs. However, she still had to prevent any damage in the middle of the process. She pondered for a moment, she said, “Then I’ll take 10,000. Aunt Guan, is that okay?”
Madam Guan quickly nodded. “Of course.”
After counting the eggs and writing the contract, Jian Qingqing and Madam
Guan discussed that they would send someone over to pick them up tomorrow.
Looking at so many eggs, Jian Qingqing asked, “Aunt Guan, how do you sell your chickens?”
The Butler quickly said, “They are all sold to the food shops. Our farm has a partnership with most of the restaurants and inns in the county.”
“Then can you sell them all?”
“This…” The Butler was a little embarrassed. “There are some that can’t be sold out, but they can all be raised in the farm. Just raise less.”
Jian Qingqing had some ideas. “I wonder if Aunt Guan is willing to do business with me?”
Madam Guan’s heart moved. She also knew that Jian Qingqing had recently opened a processing factory. It was said that it was used to process chicken. Could it be that she was talking about this business?
“May I know what kind of business Qingqing is talking about?”
Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “Aunt Guan, you can sell me the chickens that you can’t sell out in your farm. You can also sell me the eggs. What do you think, Aunt Guan?”
She thought about it carefully. It was impossible for the processing factory to only buy from her chicken farm. The processing of the cured chicken could be completed very quickly, but it would take several months to grow a batch of cured chickens. If the supply could not keep up, the time cost was too high, so she still needed to find a supplier from outside.
And Mrs. Guan was the supplier she chose. From today’s interaction, Mrs. Guan was not bad. She was more at ease cooperating with her.
Out of the chickens, she also needed a large number of eggs. The eggs could be processed into marinated eggs, which could also be easier to preserve and transport than raw eggs..
