Chapter 140 Research and Development of Spicy Noodles

After experiencing the last thrilling and frightening incident, Shen Jing suddenly realized the serious consequences of hiring careless people. So, she decided to be very careful in selecting and hiring people from now on, and never let such a thing happen again.

To this end, Shen Jing carefully planned and implemented a series of reform measures. First, she set up a new department with supervisory functions and gave it the important responsibility of comprehensively supervising the affairs of the entire factory. At the same time, in order to fully mobilize the enthusiasm and initiative of the majority of employees, Shen Jing also vigorously advocated and implemented an anonymous reporting system, encouraging everyone to actively participate in factory management and jointly maintain the healthy development of the enterprise.

After completing these preliminary preparations, Shen Jing began to vigorously promote the streamlining and optimization of the production process. With her keen insight and decisive decision-making, she quickly identified those redundant and complicated production links and eliminated them one by one without hesitation. Through this series of measures, not only has the production efficiency been greatly improved and the cost has been reduced, but the entire production process has become smoother and more efficient.

After a drastic reorganization, Shen Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that time was running out and she had to come up with a new product quotation as soon as possible in order to start in-depth cooperation with Feiyu Food Co., Ltd. in Honglu City.

Therefore, Shen Jing immediately threw herself into the work. She analyzed the market situation, raw material costs, and competitor pricing strategies in detail, and combined with the actual situation of her own company, she carefully worked out a highly competitive quotation plan.

With full sincerity, Shen Jing called Zhang Qun, the person in charge of Feiyu Food Co., Ltd.: "Hello, Mr. Zhang, I am Shen Jing from Jingmei Food Processing Factory in Qingshui Town. We have talked before. Regarding the issues your company has previously reported to us, we have organized a team to discuss them carefully, and on this basis, we have re-made a product quotation. I hope to have the opportunity to work with your company again!" Shen Jing's words revealed his importance and expectations for this cooperation.

After Zhang Qun received Shen Jing's call, he thought for a moment and said, "Director Shen, your improvement speed is indeed very fast. However, whether this new quotation is really competitive still requires further evaluation. How about this, you send the quotation over, we will study it and give you a reply."

Shen Jing felt a little disappointed after hearing this, but she remained calm and replied politely: "Okay, Mr. Zhang, I will send you the quotation right away. I hope we can reach a win-win cooperation this time."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Jing immediately sent the quotation to Zhang Qun. She knew that the waiting process might be long, but she firmly believed that her efforts would not be in vain. As long as the product quality is good and the price is reasonable, it will definitely win the recognition of customers.

During this period, Shen Jing devoted herself to the research and development of new products. After countless attempts and improvements, she finally successfully launched several pickles with unique flavors. She knows that the market competition is extremely fierce nowadays, and it is difficult to gain a foothold in the market with just the hot sauces she made in the past few years - after all, many of her peers have begun to imitate her products. Therefore, only by continuously introducing new products can she adapt to the ever-changing consumer needs and trends and stand out among many competitors.

Deep down in Shen Jing's heart, there was a tenacity that would never admit defeat: "Humph! Could it be that I, a modern person from the 21st century, would lose to these guys from the 80s? Absolutely impossible!"

She paced anxiously in the office, thinking hard about how to solve the problem. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind: "Yes! We can consider expanding our business scope and getting involved in other non-staple food fields. In my previous life, there were so many delicious snacks that made people salivate... How about trying to produce spicy strips? It is a classic delicacy that has been popular for decades. Both adults and children love it! And this way, we can make full use of the existing factory equipment and resource advantages, simplify the process and improve efficiency. It's like killing two birds with one stone. Hahaha~ Yeah, yeah, yeah, this girl is really smart!" Thinking of this, Shen Jing couldn't help but smile as if she had seen a bright future waving at her.

So Shen Jing hurried to the only supply and marketing cooperative in the town and carefully selected the best flour, bean curd, sugar, salt, monosodium glutamate and various spices. She returned home with great expectations and prepared to devote herself to the research of making spicy strips.

However, in Qingshui Town, where noodles are the staple food, it is not easy to find enough rice noodles. Shen Jing had no choice but to go to a nearby noodle shop and grind out a bag of rice grains. Then, she rushed back home, carefully placed the rice on the ancient millstone, pushed the stone mill again and again, and patiently waited for the birth of rice noodles. After several efforts, finally the hard work paid off, and the delicate and white rice noodles appeared before her eyes as she wished.

At this time, Miao Cuiping, the mother-in-law who was taking care of the children, came over curiously, looked at Shen Jing who was busy, and asked puzzledly: "Jingjing, what is the purpose of you fiddling with these things?"

Shen Jing did not stop what she was doing, and continued to filter the freshly ground rice flour with a sieve. Without even looking up, she replied, "Mom, I plan to try to develop a new product!"

Miao Cuiping became more and more curious and asked, "Is the new product made of rice flour?"

Shen Jing smiled slightly and said firmly: "Mom, actually I can't guarantee that it will succeed, but I have to try it! Please don't disturb me during this time!" After that, she concentrated on her experiment.

Seeing this, Miao Cuiping quickly hugged the crying little sweetheart and comforted her softly, "Okay, okay, we won't bother you anymore! But, it looks like sweetheart is starving, why don't you feed her some milk first!"

Shen Jing patted the rice noodles on her body and took the child to feed. Seeing the child's satisfied expression, Shen Jing became more determined to make this new product. While she gently rocked the child, she thought about the production process of spicy strips.

After the child fell asleep, Shen Jing handed the child to her mother-in-law, and then went to the kitchen to prepare the batter according to her own ideas. She carefully weighed the various ingredients and constantly adjusted the proportions, trying to find the most perfect taste. After many experiments, she finally prepared a satisfactory batter. Next, Shen Jing poured the batter into the mold and steamed it in a steamer. After it came out of the pot, she couldn't wait to taste it. Although there were still some shortcomings, it already had the prototype of spicy strips. Shen Jing cheered excitedly. She believed that as long as she continued to improve, she would be able to make delicious spicy strips.
