Chapter 119: Countermeasure

The price of flour has actually risen? It has tripled!

Brother Le and Jiabao listened, and they all looked at Yu Qingze.

This matter is too serious, and neither of them knows what to do.

The two seafood dishes on the restaurant side have little impact and can be replaced with other new dishes. However, at the snack bar, the most used is flour. If the price of flour doubles, their cost will undoubtedly be greatly increased. If you increase it, you won't make much money.

Yu Qingze frowned and asked Brother Chang, "How much flour is left in the store? How long will it last?"

Brother Chang thought for a while, and replied, "It may still be used for three days."

"Three days..." Yu Qingze walked up and down the room, his mind moving quickly.

The owner of the flour shop has cooperated with him for a long time and will not double the price for no reason. He must be threatened by someone just like the owner of the seafood stall. Fortunately, he also sent someone to tell them in advance, instead of waiting for them to deliver the goods in two days. Otherwise, they will be more passive when the time comes.

Brother Chang was very anxious, but looked at Brother Le and Jiabao but didn't say anything. He asked suspiciously, "Why are you not surprised at all?"

Brother Le sighed.

Jiabao said to Brother Chang, "Brother Chang Chang, the prices of shrimps and clams have also increased in the restaurant, and all the seafood vendors in the market have the same price, and the price of seafood sold to us has doubled. All are normal prices."

"Seafood has doubled? Are all vendors like this?" Brother Chang stared wide and asked incredulously.

There is not much seafood supply here in Tongshan City. The price of seafood was originally very expensive, but now it has doubled, and it is only for them. This is obviously someone deliberately messing up.

Jiabao nodded, angrily: "There are not many seafood sellers in the city, so I can't buy them now."

"His grandfather, who is going to **** us?!" Brother Chang was so angry that he cursed directly.

Brother Le shook his head, indicating that he didn't know yet. He didn't tell Brother Chang of his guess, because he was afraid that Brother Chang would go straight to find someone to settle the account.

But he didn't say it, but Brother Chang remembered it for himself. He glanced at Brother Le and said, "Is it Fragrant Garden?"

Yu Qingze shook his head and said, "Brother Chang, we can reasonably suspect that we can close the door by ourselves, but there is no evidence. We can't talk nonsense when we go out this door, you know?"

Hearing this, Brother Chang nodded and said: "I know the importance, boss Yu, don't worry."

Yu Qingze nodded, and then said, "So, Brother Chang, you let Tie Zhu, Er Niu, and you Ama go to the flour shop to buy flour, one person a day, replace them, and only buy three bags a day. They are in the kitchen. The general customers don’t know them, and the shop owner doesn’t even know them. Let them go in and out through the back door, and after buying them, they will go directly to the house where they live in Xicheng Jiabao, and we will transport them to the store in the evening."

"Okay." Brother Chang nodded immediately, and then worried: "What if someone recognizes him?"

Yu Qingze said: "Then I'll change another person. Let Tie Zhu go again in the afternoon today. I'll go to the flour shop to see the situation later."

"Okay. What about the restaurant?" Brother Chang asked again.

Yu Qingze said: "Also let other people in the kitchen buy it. It should be able to do it for a few days. In the past few days, I will think of a way. The worst case is to remove these two dishes. The restaurant's impact is still small. , Don’t worry, take care of the snack bar first, except for a few people in the kitchen, don’t tell them about this, so as not to cause panic."

"Okay, I see, then I'll go back first." After speaking, Brother Chang hurried back.

After Brother Chang left, Yu Qingze said to Jiabao, "Jiabao, you go and call Dasong and Dazhi in."

"Okay." Jiabao went out to call for someone, and came in with the two of them.

Yu Qingze told them about the matter, and then explained: "In a moment, Da Song will go to the market to buy. After half an hour, Da Zhi will go again. Da Song will buy 15 catties of shrimp and clams, and Da Zhi will buy 10 catties, except for shrimp and Clams, buy some other fish, choose the cheap ones and buy one or two. Take the bucket with you. Fill the water from the boss’s basin. They have sea water. After you buy them, go to the house where you live, and then come back to the restaurant. ."

Dasong and Dazhi nodded, Yu Qingze told them the seafood price, and then gave them money, Dasong picked the bucket and went out through the back door.

Taking advantage of Dasong to buy seafood, Yu Qingze explained what was going on in the store, and then went to the flour shop. Passing by two other grain and oil stores on the road, Yu Qingze deliberately went in and asked. As expected, the owners of other grain and oil stores also doubled the price.

When he arrived at the store where they delivered the goods, he didn't see the shop owner. The guy knew him well. He said that the boss checked in the storage room in the backyard, and Yu Qingze went straight to the backyard.

"Boss Kang." Yu Qingze yelled from outside.

Boss Kang heard the words and took a look at it. It was Yu Qingze. He walked out and said, "You are here."

Yu Qingze didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly: "Boss Kang, are you threatened by the price increase?"

Boss Kang sighed, nodded and asked, "Did you offend someone? I want to deal with you like this."

Yu Qingze shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I honestly opened the door to do business, how can I offend anyone, and I don't know who it is."

Boss Kang said: "Maybe your business is too good and it's in the way of others."

"I think there is only one possibility." Yu Qingze helplessly, turned to ask: "Boss Kang, I want to ask, who is the one who came to tell you?"

Boss Kang frowned, pointed his hand up, and said, "Do you want to check?"

Yu Qingze nodded and said, "I have to know who my opponent is."

Boss Kang looked around, walked over to close the door to the backyard, and pulled Yu Qingze into the storage room, and then said, "That person is a guy at the dock, just here to send a message."

"Then who is the person above him?" Yu Qingze asked.

Boss Kang said in a low voice, "This guy is a lucky guy."

"Hongyun?" Yu Qingze frowned and asked, "I remember this was a shipping company?"

Boss Kang nodded and said: "They originally only hauled goods for others, but then they did it themselves, and they transported flour back from the north. They didn’t know where they sourced the flour. The quality of the flour is better than the quality of the flour shipped back from another company. ."

"You usually buy goods there?" Yu Qingze asked.

Boss Kang nodded and said, "Yes, all the flour in my place is from them. As you know, there are only six or seven stores in the city with the quality of flour like mine, and they are all from Hongyun. Purchased there."

"It turned out to be like this." Yu Qingze thought thoughtfully.

He visited all the flour shops in the city when he was making food stalls earlier, and he understood that, as Boss Kang said, some of them have better flour than others. The two shops he asked before he came were also shops with better flour.

The flour used in his shop is of relatively good quality, so the snacks they make are also very delicate, and customers like it that much.

And now, they can't use worse flour instead. The taste is really different. Customers can eat it as soon as they eat it, which will affect their reputation.

Boss Kang sighed and said, "Otherwise, you go to another place to see?"

Yu Qingze is his major customer. He also feels it is a pity that he has lost such a major customer. But there is no alternative. He cannot risk losing the supply of goods for the sake of a customer.

Yu Qingze smiled bitterly: "I went in and asked before I came, just like you."

Boss Kang opened his mouth wide, and said in surprise: "All this?"

Yu Qingze nodded, and then he asked: "Boss Kang, do you usually buy goods every few days? When do you go?"

Boss Kang said: "Usually once every five days, it's in the afternoon and unity hour. There will be a ship coming back tomorrow afternoon. Would you like to see it?"

Yu Qingze nodded, "I don't know anyone from Hongyun, so I won't come against me for no reason. I have to check."

"Yes, you go, be careful."

"I see, thank you, Boss Kang." Yu Qingze thanked Boss Kang, and suddenly remembered another question, and asked: "Boss Kang, do you know that apart from flour, does Hongyun also do seafood business?"

Boss Kang nodded and replied: "Yes. But it's not a batch of ships. They have two lines, one specializes in flour and other grains, and the other specializes in seafood. They seem to be shipped back from the north."

Hearing this, Yu Qingze understood, and he said, "Thank you, boss Kang."
