Chapter 105 Huo Beixi stands with others
Hua Xiali had secretly added a little bit of spiritual spring water to the well in front of her fourth uncle's house. With the nourishment of the spiritual spring water, her vegetables grew light green leaves, which looked very pleasing.
Because of the changes in the family, Hua Xiali has not yet decided whether to tell her mother about buying a house and land in her fourth uncle's village. She is really conflicted now.
After staying at his fourth uncle's house for one night, he stored the bamboo he had cut during this period in the space after they fell asleep. The next morning, Hua Xiali went straight home without any further delay.
In the afternoon, seeing the people who took the braised food from them to sell come back with bad faces, Hua Xiali asked worriedly, "Si Nian, why did you come back so early today? I remember you usually come back in the evening, right?"
Hua Si Nian said unhappily, "Some people in this town followed our lead and started selling stewed food, and they sold it cheaper than us, at only 90 cents per pound. Then everyone thought we sold it too expensively, so we had to sell it at 80 cents per pound. Others bought it because it was cheap, and although it sold faster than usual, we made less money!"
Hua Xiali frowned when he heard this, and then said, "From now on, no matter how much others sell it for, we can't lower the price. We can raise the price, but we can't lower it."
“But if we don’t lower the price, we won’t be able to sell it at all,” others said.
“If you lower the price every time, then next time you’ll have to sell it at 70, 60, 50, or 40 cents. In the end you won’t even be able to make back your capital, do you understand?” The most taboo thing in doing business is to engage in price wars, because in the end it disrupts the market and no one makes money.
Hua Xiali pointed to the left and said, "Tomorrow you go in that direction. There are several towns over there. It's enough for everyone to make a lot of money. When the people in the town on the right taste the other people's braised food and find that it's not as good as ours, they will regret it."
There is Lingquan water in her house. The braised food is washed with well water mixed with Lingquan water. The water used during processing also contains Lingquan water. Long-term consumption can regulate the body and beautify the skin. If they don't eat it, it's their loss.
Everyone looked in the direction of Hua Xiali's finger, and then realized that they always went to their own town but ignored other surrounding towns.
There are so many towns nearby that they can keep doing business for a long time, so even if someone copies them, what does it matter? At worst, they can just move to another place, after all, this is their main business now.
Hua Xiali also knows that no matter what she does, there will always be people who follow suit. But she also knows that no matter how much others follow suit, they can't make the taste like hers. People who have tasted her braised food can't get used to other people's braised food, so those who buy other people's braised food just because it saves a dime will definitely regret it.
Hua Xiali has many ways to make money, so she is not worried at all.
If she can’t make braised food anymore, the worst that can happen is that she can just change to another one. In her previous life, she may not have much life experience, but she has a lot of experience in odd jobs and can do many things. Plus, she has the blessing of spiritual spring water, so what does she have to worry about?
On the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Hua Chunli and Hua Qiuli had to rush back to school in the evening, because they had to go to class early the next morning, so they discussed making dinner early so that Hua Chunli and Hua Qiuli could finish their meal early before returning to school. Hua Xiali always felt as if she had forgotten something important, but she couldn't remember it no matter how hard she tried. Finally, she remembered with great difficulty that she had made an appointment with Huo Beixi to meet in front of the Guizhen Grand Theater on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but she actually forgot such an important thing.
Ever since she took Hua's father to the city hospital for treatment, Hua Xiali has not had a proper talk with Huo Beixi because she was busy with Hua's father and Xie Yongfang's affairs. When she took Hua's father to the brigade headquarters to deal with things, it was not Huo Beixi who handled it for them. She and Huo Beixi have not had any contact in the past few days, and she doesn't know if Huo Beixi still remembers this matter.
She didn't even know whether Huo Beixi was waiting for her in front of the Guizhen Theater at this moment.
Hua Xiali had no idea why Huo Beixi asked her to go over, and she had been hesitating whether to go or not. After lunch, she decided to go. The terminus of the minibus was the bus station in the city, so there was no need to change buses, and it was not troublesome. It would not be a hassle to go.
"Sister, I have to go out for something, so I won't have dinner with you tonight. Don't worry about me if I don't come back, I will definitely find a hotel to stay outside." Hua Xiali said and set off with her bag, because they couldn't miss the minibus schedule.
And she couldn't say that she was staying at a relative's house, otherwise what would she do if her mother couldn't find her when she called?
After getting on the minibus, Hua Xiali leaned back in her seat and turned her head to look at the scenery flashing by outside the window. She had walked this road countless times in her past and present lives, and she knew everything along the way very well. She dared to say that she was more familiar with and understood more about it than the village chiefs in any village.
The minibus let people get on and off from time to time, so by the time they arrived at the Guizhen City Bus Station, almost two or three hours had passed. Hua Chunli was probably about to leave, but Zhang Yongfeng would take her to the train station in the town, and then she would take the train back to school. Taking the train could save two-thirds of the time, and there were more trains, so she didn't have to put down her bowl and chopsticks as soon as she finished lunch like she did on the minibus.
Getting off the car, Hua Xiali moved his body that was about to fall apart. The road condition was not good at that time, and there were many potholes. It was really painful to sit like this for several hours.
Hua Xiali walked around the bus station for a while to adjust himself, then went outside and hailed a three-wheeled motorcycle to go to the Grand Theater.
When the three-wheeled motorcycle arrived at the roadside in front of the Grand Theater, Hua Xiali was about to get off when he saw Huo Beixi standing outside the Grand Theater.
Huo Beixi was really dazzling. He was wearing a navy blue long windbreaker today, with a white shirt underneath, black pants, and shiny black leather shoes. He looked very elegant and attractive, just like the male lead in an idol drama.
Next to him stood a beautiful woman wearing a rose-red long windbreaker, big curly hair, high heels, earrings, and flaming red lips. The two were chatting and looked very well matched. Hua Xiali felt a pang in his heart, then stepped back and said to the master in front, "Master, stop at the hotel in front."
There is no time to go back tonight, so we have to stay in a hotel anyway, so it doesn't matter whether we check in early or late.
