Chapter 40 New Recipe?
Wang Lili's shrewd eyes darted around in their sockets, and only after the other party's repeated pleas did she reluctantly say it.
"I just think this milk tea is pretty good, but not that great."
"Huh? What do we do then? This is the formula headquarters gave us, and I don't know how to modify it. Are we going to have to do the research and development ourselves?"
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."
Wang Lili hurriedly defended herself, and then said...
"What I mean is, why don't you call headquarters and see if there's a newer formula that you can improve upon? I think that would be even better."
Lin Wei suddenly realized what was going on and immediately picked up her phone to dial the number of someone named "President Zhou".
After the call is connected.
A man's voice came out.
After Lin Wei briefly explained her purpose, the other party paused for a moment.
"Is it Lin Wei from Yongning City?"
"Yes, yes, it just opened a couple of days ago."
"Oh...you've made the perfect call. I just received a message from the lab yesterday saying they've developed a new batch of herbal milk tea recipes that taste even better."
Upon hearing about the new formula, Lin Wei was overjoyed, as if a drowning person had grasped at a straw, and said impatiently.
"That's great, that's great! When can we get this new formula?"
"No rush."
Mr. Zhou paused for a moment, his voice suddenly drifting away as if he were talking to the people around him, and then his voice came back in.
"Well then, we happen to have an inspector who's coming to your area to check on the hygiene conditions."
"Secondly, we also need to provide suggestions for improvement to your store."
"He should arrive tomorrow or the day after. I'll have him bring samples of the new formula for you to try. If you like it after tasting it, we can talk more."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Wei happily grabbed Wang Lili's hand.
"That's great, that's great!"
Wang Lili had a smile on her face, appearing to genuinely care about the other person.
A short while later, Zhou Qing and another close friend, Zhao Xueyan, arrived.
Lin Wei was in charge of entertaining the two of them.
Completely unaware that Wang Lili had turned on her phone and opened a new text message.
There was no name noted, just a string of numbers. If Lin Wei saw it, she would realize that this string of numbers was the same as the "General Manager Zhou's" phone number from earlier.
The message was very brief and very cryptic.
Thank you for your help; I appreciate it.
Wang Lili tapped her exquisite manicured nails on the screen and replied.
【receive. 】
Then the text message was deleted.
the other side.
Chen Yuan diligently did his own thing.
Moreover, he is now very used to Su Qingxue being by his side.
However, Chen Yuan was unaware of this at the moment.
After handing a large bag of steamed buns to an old man, he looked at Aunt Wang, who had a full head of white hair. When she didn't speak, he spoke up.
"Aunt Wang, you'd like two cups of soy milk and four steamed buns, right? We also have freshly fried youtiao (Chinese fried dough sticks), would you like to take two more?"
Aunt Wang comes to buy breakfast every morning, and she always buys the same things.
Chen Yuan already remembered it.
Just as she was quickly packing the items into bags, Aunt Wang said something that was unusual for her.
"Oh dear, I don't want soy milk today. I've already bought soy milk from someone else."
"what?"
Chen Yuan was a little surprised.
Turning my head, I saw that Aunt Wang was already carrying two cups of soy milk.
This surprised him even more.
If it were steamed buns or fried dough sticks, that would be fine, since those two dishes don't offer any buffs.
But beauty-enhancing soy milk is different.
It can immediately improve the skin's radiance after drinking it.
There's no reason for Aunt Wang to buy someone else's soy milk instead of his.
Although Chen Yuan had some questions in his mind, he did not ask them.
But then...
What puzzled him even more was what happened next.
Not only Aunt Wang, but also many other loyal customers of Meiyan Soy Milk have gone to buy other people's soy milk.
Moreover, these people are all elderly.
But this is actually a good thing, as it benefits those office workers who get up late.
Previously, these office workers could never buy soy milk, but this time they all managed to get their hands on some. They drank soy milk and ate steamed buns while happily heading to work.
Talk about the other side.
After taking the steamed buns and fried dough sticks, Aunt Wang turned around and went home.
Aunt Wang's son and daughter both work in other cities, leaving only her and her husband at home.
He carried his things home, put breakfast on the dining table, and called out to the bedroom.
"Old Cai, come out for dinner."
A chubby man with a smile on his face walked out of the bedroom.
He washed his hands, sat down, and picked up a cup of soy milk. After taking a sip, he realized the taste was off.
"Huh? Why does the soy milk taste different today? Did you buy soy milk from Xiao Chen's shop?"
"no."
"Huh? Then why didn't you buy Xiao Chen's? Whose is this?"
"Why don't you try it first and see how it tastes?"
Old Cai took another puff, savored it, and then spoke.
"The taste is alright, but it doesn't feel as rich as Xiao Chen's. You just went for the cheapest option, didn't you?"
Aunt Wang sighed, sat down at the table, and didn't touch her chopsticks, looking rather uninterested.
Old Cai asked curiously.
"What's wrong? You look like a wilted eggplant. What happened?"
After Lao Cai pressed her repeatedly, Aunt Wang finally told the truth.
"Do you remember the man surnamed Dong who lived in building number 36? The one who passed away last year."
"Yes, I know. He also has a disabled son."
"This soy milk is sold by Lao Dong's wife, Xiao Li, at her stall."
"Huh? How come I didn't know that?"
Old Cai was very surprised. Aunt Wang rolled her eyes at him and said irritably.
"What's on your mind all day? You never answer any questions, and you don't do anything around the house. You're such a person..."
Seeing that the flames of war were about to spread to his own head, Lao Cai called for a stop in time.
"Stop, stop, stop! Let's get down to business! Let's talk about Lao Cai's wife, don't drag me into this."
Aunt Wang rolled her eyes so hard they almost flew to the sky.
From her account, Lao Cai learned the whole story.
Old Cai said, "You know what, the community really did a good job. They set up a stall for this widow and her child. Selling soy milk doesn't earn them much, but it's enough for them to make a living."
"That's right, you didn't see it, Xiao Li always brings her silly son with her when she sets up her stall. It made me cry. That's why our group spontaneously organized to buy soy milk from her, so we can help her out."
Old Cai nodded and said seriously.
"You did the right thing, I support you."
To everyone's surprise, Aunt Wang glared at her.
"Do you think I'd let you stay home doing nothing?"
"Starting tomorrow, you'll buy soy milk from Xiao Chen!"
