Chapter 59
Yue Ming did not reserve any entertainment items like the Zhuge family, but directly booked a room.
Su Chaoqi went to Starport to pick him up in person.
"It's an honor," Yue Ming said exaggeratedly, "I actually took the trouble of your carriage to pick me up."
"Please come less," Su Chaoqi smiled and shook his head, pointing to Qiao Zhiyan, "Let me introduce to you, this is Qiao Zhiyan, the young owner of the B&B, who is also my senior. This is Yue Ming, a new product on the market recently. He is the boss of Yuejia Ancient Soy Sauce."
Yue Ming shook hands with Qiao Zhiyan and raised his eyebrows: "What, you were also picked on by Su Chaoqi?"
Although Su Chaoqi provided him with a way to make money, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she had her own purpose. There were some things she couldn't do herself, so she used technology to lure others to do it, and then asked others to give her what she wanted.
"Look what you said," Su Chaoqi did not accept such slander, "You didn't make any profit?"
As soon as Yue Ming went public, he immediately started a price war. Although the market price of soy sauce was there, he couldn't set the price too low, otherwise it would disrupt the market, but he could carry out activities, so he succeeded in tearing up a piece of the market with low prices. .
Peers are naturally wary of such a new rival. Price wars are common, but they cannot last long, so they are waiting for Yuejia to be unable to withstand the losses caused by such discounts.
However, Yue Ming could afford it.
With the information provided to him by Su Chaoqi, he saved a lot of costs. At least in terms of development costs, his trial and error rate was very low. In addition, he had no site costs. Although he still uses wild soybeans, When the soybeans he grows can be harvested, he can even omit the cost of raw materials.
Therefore, Yue Ming always makes money.
You make money, but you also have to pay a lot.
Yue Ming pointed to his own eyes: "Did you see it? What is this?"
Su Chaoqi looked at him carefully: "Aren't these just eyes?"
"It's the dark circles under my eyes!" Yue Ming said angrily, "I haven't had a good night's sleep in more than two months and three months."
Su Chaoqi didn't feel guilty at all. He was a dandy. He didn't usually eat, drink and have the soy sauce factory opened, Yue Ming stayed out all night. Of course, this was what Mosha said.
"Okay," Su Chaoqi pulled him onto the aircraft, "Stop complaining. Have you brought the things I asked you to bring?"
Yue Ming nodded: "Here you go, twenty kilograms of beans, right? Actually, I can bring a little more."
His current main business is soy sauce and soybean oil, because soy sauce can be made from soybean meal after pressing the oil. He has also thought about making other soybean products, such as tofu and yuba, but the market for soybean products is real. It's too small.
Because there is no chef to do it.
All the chefs are studying how to cook with exotic animals. Things made from plants are not called dishes, so no one cares.
Su Chaoqi smiled and said, "How about I find you a partner today?"
Yue Ming glanced at Qiao Zhiyan, who was sitting opposite him, and Qiao Zhiyan nodded to him.
How much of his products can be consumed by a B&B, but no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are not meat.
What's more, finding him a partner was just a matter of course, and helping this B&B was the main purpose.
But he didn't mind either.
"These questions are not urgent," Qiao Zhiyan said with a smile, "Let Mr. Yue take a good vacation first."
This is true.
But Su Chaoqi was a little strange: "Why are you alone? I thought you would at least bring your parents here."
Yue Ming waved his hand and said with a heartless look: "If you don't take it with you, take them with you to grab food from me."
Su Chaoqi: "...how much do you need this kind of food?"
"Que!" Yue Ming said plausibly, "How long ago was the last time I ate the food you made by yourself? You promised to cook something for me today, but I want to eat enough."
"There's no meat," Su Chaoqi said immediately, "You have to make the meat yourself."
Yue Ming frowned: "But I can't do it."
Su Chaoqi said meaningfully: "Don't worry, you will definitely do it."
When Yue Ming heard this, he knew that there was probably a lot of room for maneuver, so he raised his eyebrows with interest.
But I didn’t ask any more questions, after all, I would know when the time came.
After arriving at the B&B, Yue Ming completed the accommodation registration and walked around the room. He was a little disgusted with the conditions, but thinking about it, he didn't come here for a comfortable stay, so the conditions were almost the same.
Every guest staying at the B&B is provided with seasonal fruits, which are provided per person. There is also a thoughtful note next to the delivered fruit indicating how to eat it, whether to peel it or eat it directly.
After Yue Ming ate a few, he put the fruit plate in the refrigerator and decided to walk around the B&B to see the environment.
Of course, he needs a guide.
This guide is naturally from the Su Dynasty.
Su Chaoqi was not surprised at all that he came to disturb him, so he took him away with two sticks in his hand.
Yue Ming glanced at the stick held by Su Chaoqi: "What are you holding?"
Su Chaoqi smiled and said, "This is a fishing rod, for fishing."
"fishing?"
Su Chaoqi said without changing his expression: "Yes, during the Blue Star era, fishing was a very popular leisure activity."
Yue Ming did not doubt that he was there and followed Su Chaoqi to a platform. Under the platform was the calm and slow flowing platform was originally used for customers to enjoy the scenery, but it is also good for fishing.
Su Chaoqi showed Yue Ming how to operate.
The bait was earthworms dug by Su Chaoqi in advance, threaded and hung on the fishhook, then he threw the fishing rod out and supported it on the ground.
Yue Ming watched her movements: "Is this the end?"
"It's done," Su Chaoqi looked up at him, "What we have to do next is wait."
"Wait?" Yue Ming couldn't help but raise his voice, "How long will it take?"
"Shh," Su Chaoqi put his finger to his lips, signaling him to whisper, "be careful not to scare the fish away."
It was hard for Yue Ming to talk, but he didn't have the patience to keep waiting for the fish that didn't know when it would take the bait.
Su Chaoqi looked at him and said: "Look, in Blue Star, fishing is not just fishing, but a philosophy. What you catch is not fish, but a way of tempering yourself."
Yue Ming knew that Su Chaoqi was very knowledgeable about Blue Star culture, so he did not doubt his words: "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Su Chaoqi took out two small chairs from the space button, gave one to Yue Ming, and sat on one himself. He looked at the water and entered a state of meditation like an old monk.
Yue Ming was dubious. He slowly sat down on the chair and looked at the water like Su Chaoqi.
5 minutes passed.
10 minutes passed.
15 minutes passed.
There was still no movement on the water.
Yue Ming lost his patience and stood up: "You..."
"Stop talking!" Su Chaoqi shouted softly, "The fish has bitten the hook."
Can this really catch fish?Yue Ming immediately looked towards the water and saw the fish float shaking precariously, rising and falling continuously.
So, is this a bait? It was too late, but it was too soon. Su Chaoqi saw the right moment and suddenly raised the pole and reeled in the line.
A fish weighing about three kilograms was brought to the platform and was struggling and tumbling on the platform.
Yue Ming stared dumbfounded...
Su Chaoqi picked up the fish and threw it into the bucket, then raised his eyebrows at Yue Ming.
"This can really catch a fish," Yue Ming looked at the fish in the bucket in surprise, "No, is this thing called a fish?"
Su Chaoqi swung the rod again: "Yes, the most important thing in fishing is patience. You need to practice your patience more."
She said this for a reason.
Yueming's price war has aroused the vigilance of competitors, and others will inevitably have to fight back.
Yue Ming almost fell into the trap of others because he was too radical.
Morissa mentioned this matter as a joke when she was chatting with her. When she heard it, she felt that Yue Ming was very suitable for fishing.
In his previous life, Su Chaoqi also didn't like fishing. In the eyes of people who don't like fishing, this is an extremely boring activity and the benefits are not proportional to the effort.
She was also eager for quick success and was extremely anxious because her career did not meet expectations. But the more anxious she was, the more likely she was to make mistakes.
Later, her mentor took her fishing, which gradually rubbed away the impetuousness in her bones.
Now she used this trick on Yue Ming.
Yue Ming sighed and sat back.
"This activity is suitable for my dad." Even though his attention was on the fish float, Yue Ming still couldn't stop talking. "He is the most patient."
Yue Fu has always walked steadily, and the prerequisite for being steady is to have enough patience. Making a decision too early may lead to wrong decisions because you cannot see the situation clearly.
So Yue Fu’s patience is very good.
Su Chaoqi invited: "If uncle is free, you can let him come to the B&B for vacation."
"Of course he is free," Yue Ming's voice dropped slightly, "He is ready to completely hand over the company to my elder brother."
Su Chaoqi was slightly startled: "So soon... No, your father is far from the age where he needs to retire."
The lifespan of interstellar people has been greatly extended compared to that of Blue Star. Even if they are more than a hundred years old, they can still be full of energy. Yue Fu is only over 70 now. He is in the prime of life, so why retire at this time.
"Sooner or later, I have to hand these over to my eldest brother," Yue Ming smiled bitterly. "The sooner I retire, the easier it will be for my eldest brother and his mother's family to rest assured. Originally, my father was worried that I would not be doing my job properly. If he was in the company, he could arrange anything for me. I'm afraid it won't be that easy if my eldest brother were in charge of working in a company."
But he doesn't need to hang around in the company now. He has his own career to do, and the career he is doing has nothing to do with his brother. Yue's father doesn't have to worry about conflicts between his two sons, so he is naturally happy to be one. Throw away the shopkeeper.
What's more, if he retreats now, he can pay more attention to Yue Ming, who has just entered the mall, and give him some pointers.
Even if he withdraws from the company, he will just do nothing. Yue's father still has shares in the company. Just taking the shares is enough for him to live a comfortable retirement life.
Su Chaoqi said: "Then you should bring your parents to relax today."
Yue Ming shook his head: "They are busy. It's not like they just quit. Just handing over work is a lot of work, but it's coming soon. You will see the press conference in a few days."
