Eavesdropping on Fu Bao's inner thoughts, emptying the stored grain and fleeing the famine

When Caiji Restaurant became infamous, Manager Yun of Yunheju immediately cleaned up the rotten meat and vegetables in the kitchen.

That's right, Yunheju wasn't a good place either. In order to ensure profitability, Manager Yun and Manager Liang chose the same method.

It's just that Caiji Restaurant was unlucky; it got into trouble first.

Having learned from Caiji's mistake, Yunheju dared not rashly pass off inferior goods as superior ones again.

But just then, Lianrong Food Stall suddenly launched a 50% discount for members.

Simply put, by depositing one or two taels of silver, one can get a 50% discount on dishes. In addition, one can enjoy a free birthday banquet every year on one's birthday.

For some wealthy families in Liangye City, a tael of silver was nothing. Therefore, everyone was drawn to Lian Rongrong's membership program.

Faced with Lian Rongrong's endless stream of ideas, Yunheju had no choice but to keep coming up with solutions.

But at this moment, Lian Rongrong made another move, acquiring more than half of the meat and eggs on the market.

Manager Yun originally thought that this girl's actions were tantamount to digging her own grave. After all, the weather was getting hot these days, and meat and eggs were not easy to preserve.

Once the food spoils, he can replicate Lian Rongrong's methods and make Lian Rong's food stall as infamous as Cai Ji's.

But as they waited day after day, the ingredients at Lianrong Food Stall showed no signs of spoilage; on the contrary, they remained fresh every day.

Manager Yun was unaware that Lian Rongrong had her own storage space, so he could only watch helplessly as her business flourished day by day.

Meanwhile, his own shop was losing money day after day.

The price reduction had already severely damaged Yunheju's business, and now, due to Lian Rongrong's actions, the prices of meat and eggs on the market have also risen.

Therefore, Manager Yun could not hold on for long.

However, Yunheju is currently in a dilemma: it cannot continue the price war, but raising prices will cause it to lose customers.

Just when Manager Yun was in dire straits, Lian Rongrong suddenly visited Yunheju.

"What are you doing here?" Manager Yun still maintained his arrogant demeanor, keeping everyone at arm's length.

However, Lian Rongrong knew that this man was now all bark and no bite.

Without waiting for the host's invitation, Lian Rongrong chose a seat and sat down. They were currently on the second floor of Yunhe Residence.

From their positions, they could see the entire main hall of Yunhe Residence.

"Manager Yun," Lian Rongrong said to Manager Yun, looking down at the desolate hall below, "Business isn't very good, is it?"

Lian Rongrong's sarcastic manner infuriated Manager Yun. He had dominated Liangye City for many years, and now he was about to be humiliated by a mere young girl.

Manager Yun grew angrier the more she thought about it, her hands trembling uncontrollably. "I thought Manager Lian was someone important, but she's just like a shrew from the marketplace, always kicking someone when they're down!"

Lian Rongrong glanced at Manager Yun, her expression unreadable, then shook her head, stood up, and said:

"I don't understand what Manager Yun is saying. Let's not beat around the bush. Wasn't it you and Manager Liang who attacked me first?"

Moreover, your current predicament is entirely due to your attempt to scheme against me.

What? Now that the defeat is inevitable, are you going to put all the blame on me?

"Manager Yun, if it were Lianrong Food Stall that was in such a sorry state today, you'd probably be laughing your head off."

Manager Yun blushed, snorted coldly, and didn't reply, since what Lian Rongrong said was absolutely true.

"Manager Yun, I don't understand. I'm just doing my business properly, what did I do to offend you?"

Is it just because my business is doing well? But I don't think Lianrong Food Stall will have any impact on Caiji and Yunheju.

After all, you guys are playing high-level games, while I'm just making some good food for ordinary people.

My place is nothing special, so why do you two managers have to make things difficult for me?

As soon as Lian Rongrong finished speaking, Manager Yun shouted angrily at her:

"Because you are too ambitious."

Am I ambitious?

"That's right, we once wanted to acquire you, but you insisted on using your Lian Rong name!"

"Aren't you just trying to make a name for yourself so we can just stand in your way?"

After hearing Manager Yun's explanation, Lian Rongrong was both amused and exasperated. She looked at Manager Yun speechlessly and asked:

"Is this all the reason you've attacked me time and time again?"

Seeing that Manager Yun remained silent, Lian Rongrong continued, "Manager Yun, do you know why I'm so concerned about the shop's name?"

"Why else? To become famous!"

"To become famous?" Lian Rongrong smiled and shook her head, then nodded. "Actually, Manager Yun is right. I do want to become famous. However, it's not what you think."

"What else could it be?" Manager Yun rubbed his head in frustration, watching the last table of customers in the main hall downstairs pay their bill and leave.

“I insisted on keeping the name ‘Lian Rong’ solely for the purpose of finding the person.”

"Looking for someone?" Boss Yun's expression of disgust was finally replaced by confusion.

"I need to find my father and my brother. My mother is unwell and can only recuperate here temporarily."

I didn't know where my father and brothers were, and I didn't dare leave my mother alone. The only thing I could think of was to let my father and brothers know about us.

I want to make Lianrong Food Stall bigger and stronger, and it's not just for a few dollars. I want my father and brothers to hear my name as soon as they come to Liangye City.

In this way, even if we don't go looking for them, they will come looking for us.

"Really?" Manager Yun asked, still somewhat doubtful. Lian Rongrong smiled slightly and continued:

"With Manager Yun in this state, what need is there for me to lie to you?"

Although Lian Rongrong's words were unpleasant to hear, Manager Yun had to admit the truth. After all, there was no point in Lian Rongrong deceiving him any further at this point.

"Is Manager Lian here today just to talk to me about these trivial things?"

“Of course not!” Lian Rongrong slowly sat down, her smile never fading. “I’m here to discuss cooperation with Manager Yun.”

"Cooperation?" Manager Yun frowned.

"Exactly!" Lian Rongrong clapped her hands twice, and Qiu Ju immediately stepped forward and placed the wooden box she had been holding on the table.

Lian Rongrong reached out and lifted the lid of the wooden box, which was full of gold ingots.

"What do you mean by this?" Manager Yun asked, frowning.

Lian Rongrong lowered her head slightly, and then slowly said, "Previously, the two bosses wanted to acquire Lian Rong Food Stall, but they couldn't reach an agreement because of the name issue."

This acquisition still counts, except now it's me acquiring you! But my requirements aren't many; I just want you to add "Lianrong" to your name.

If you'd like, I can provide you with the exclusive seasoning from Lianrong Food Stall. And you can rest assured, Manager Yun.

I will not interfere with Yunheju's business; Manager Yun is still in charge here.

The conditions offered by Lian Rongrong were practically flawless, and in the end, Manager Yun couldn't resist the temptation and signed the acquisition agreement.

After settling things off with Yunheju, financial matters became much easier.

When Manager Liang saw Manager Yun, with whom he had fought for over a decade, following behind Lian Rongrong like a junior, he knew he had lost this battle.
