Send me to the countryside? Turn around and make you homeless!

Some people raised some more questions, and Tan Yuan did not avoid them and explained them one by one. Everyone was satisfied and thought that when the factory was closed on Sunday, they would definitely go to the supply and marketing cooperative to see if they had this Shuxiang dried tofu for sale.

Of course, the reason was to participate in the lucky draw, but more importantly, the tofu tasted really good. It was obviously made of dried tofu, but it had a meaty aroma.

And there is actually oil in it. Nowadays, oil is very expensive. Even when cooking, people only scoop out a small spoonful. A small piece of dried tofu has both meaty flavor and oily water. How can it not be tempting?

Watching the crowd slowly disperse, Li Xiu's tense nerves relaxed, and he kept sighing while holding Tan Yuan.

"Yuanyuan, you are so amazing! I was so scared that I couldn't speak."

Not only was she not nervous in front of so many people, but she was also able to talk about something that didn't exist as if it really existed without changing her expression. She just couldn't do that.

But after she sighed with envy, Li Xiu became sad again.

"Do you think we can really get orders like this?"

They gave away a hundred or so bags of dried tofu for free. These were all made by the employees in their factory with hard work and sweat. The raw materials and other things cost money, and Li Xiu felt heartbroken when they just gave them away for free.

In fact, as long as they can get orders, it’s okay to give it away for free. However, until now, the people who received the dried tofu from their factory have left one after another, and there has not been even a single order. How can Li Xiu not be frustrated?

Tan Yuan looked at Li Xiu, and with just one glance, Li Xiu felt as if she had seen through his thoughts.

She suddenly smiled at Li Xiu and said, "Come on, let's clean this place first."

The packaging bags from their tofu factory are scattered all over the ground. They must clean it up themselves. They can't let the factory be responsible for it.

After finishing the cleaning, Tan Yuan turned her attention to the remaining dried tofu.

"Let's go, let's get down to business."

Serious business? Li Xiu didn't quite understand what Tan Yuan meant by this serious business. Hadn't they always been doing serious business? Were they just playing?

As a result, Tan Yuan was seen holding dried tofu and taking Li Xiu to several factories.

It was already past three in the afternoon when Guan Jianguo finished his own business. Guessing that Tan Yuan should be about the same time, he hurried over in his ox cart to pick her up. From a distance, he saw that Tan Yuan and Li Xiu had already packed up everything and were standing at the same place waiting for him in the morning.

All the dried tofu that they brought out in the morning are now gone. Tan Yuan's expression is normal, but Li Xiu is dejected.

He didn't ask any more questions. He didn't want to interfere in the affairs of the brigade, nor could he interfere. He just took them back to the brigade.

Li Xiu was dejected because she had originally thought that with so many things, she would at least be able to get an order, but in the end, she got nothing...

When they went to the three factories with Tan Yuan, Tan Yuan found their purchasing department and this time tried to seriously promote their factory's products, but they were ignored by the purchasing department. Some even said that they had already purchased the Mid-Autumn Festival employee benefits and politely asked them to come out.

Even so, Tan Yuan was not discouraged at all and still had a smiling face. After being rejected several times in a row, how could Li Xiu still smile? She now truly felt the gap between herself and Tan Yuan. She could never be like Tan Yuan.

She remained calm even when her efforts received no reward. She didn't dare to imagine how the team leader would treat Tan Yuan when she returned to the team and asked about it. When he heard that they had delivered all the goods but didn't get a single order, he would tell her that she had not received any orders.

And the employees in the tofu factory, how disappointed would they be when they heard that there were no orders.

Tan Yuan patted Li Xiu's hand gently and said, "You've worked hard all day. Go back and rest first. We have to continue tomorrow."

As for myself, of course I have to go to the brigade headquarters.

Tan Yuan had already prepared herself mentally for the fact that she would not be able to get any orders today. Their products had not even been sold to the supply and marketing cooperatives yet, and expecting people to place orders based on just a few samples was nothing but a daydream.

Her goal at the beginning was very clear, which was to let everyone know that there was a Huaiyin Brigade in the county, and that there was a factory in the brigade that produced something called dried tofu.

When she went to the county today, although all the things were delivered, she achieved her goal, even better than she expected.

If she wants to succeed, the key lies in the captain's side.

The team leader came back much later than Tan Yuan expected. As soon as he entered the team headquarters, he saw Tan Yuan and Accountant Zhang who had been waiting there.

"What? Could it be the Marketing Bureau..."

Accountant Zhang's heart was in turmoil at the sight of the team leader's slightly weathered face. If the Unified Marketing Bureau didn't accept their team's dried tofu, wouldn't their team be doomed?

Even Tan Yuan's heart was lifted by the captain's appearance, and there was a hint of nervousness on her face when she looked at the captain.

How could this be possible? How could there be a problem with the Unified Marketing Bureau?

The Unified Marketing Bureau is responsible for this. Their brigade's factory is legal and compliant, so there's no reason for any problems. So, it can only be...

"Did they not agree on the price?"

Tan Yuan asked her own guess, she couldn't think of anything else.

The captain gave them a helpless smile and said, "They said our price was too high..."

A small factory that has just been established wants to sell at such a high price, but the Unified Marketing Bureau is not optimistic and is not sure.

As long as they are not willing to take it, Tan Yuan felt relieved, but the price is also a big problem.

"What's the price over there?"

Unified purchase and sales. Once the price is decided by the Unified Sales Bureau, they cannot raise the price even if they open their own sales department in the future. Therefore, the current pricing is crucial and there can be no room for carelessness.

"Two cents a pack."

Two cents a bag, about twenty bags per pound, for a price of 40 cents per pound...

Their psychological price range is 80 cents to one dollar per pound, which is a big difference. No wonder the team leader is so worried.

Even Accountant Zhang fell silent when he heard the price. This price was just right, right at their cost price, and they could make about 10 cents per pound.

Of course, this is without taking into account labor costs.

"Hey, I'll go to the commune early tomorrow morning and see if I can help us think of a solution."
