The price of the Eight Treasure Pickles is destined not to attract too many customers, and Jiang Tao was well aware of this from the start.
Moreover, he didnāt need to capture all the customers, just a small part of them would be enough.
Offline physical store sales are one thing, but Jiang Tao also plans to develop online sales channels in the future, taking a dual approach.
The food factory can only produce about 500 pounds of product every two days or so, the output is not high, and the sales task is not large.
To maximize profits, Jiangās Eight Treasure Pickles can and must follow a "boutique route."
Besides, with Brother Tongziās optimized formula and the dual boost of the Delicious Pickle Jar.
Jiang Tao is not even happy to sell them cheaply.
Jiang Bing is still the same, continuing to go to the greenhouse in Cui Village to sell blueberries.
In the morning, Jiang Tao went to Black Bull Barbecue again.
He tried to see if Brother Tongzi could directly analyze and optimize the Black Bull Barbecueās secret barbecue sauce, to find a loophole, but there was no reaction.
It seems, just like when learning the secret recipe for Eight Treasure Pickles from Jiang Yi before.
He has to first learn the recipe for Black Bull Barbecueās sauce before Brother Tongzi can analyze and optimize it.
It looks like the money for buying the recipe cannot be saved.
At 11 oāclock in the morning, Jiang Tao took the internal staff elevator at Wanxianghui to the 7th floor rooftop.
He was led by a staff member to the door of Du Enanās office and knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
Hearing Du Enanās voice inside, Jiang Tao gently pushed the door open and entered.
"Oh, Jiang Tao, how come itās you, didnāt Lili come with you."
Seeing Jiang Tao pushing the door in, Du Enan cheerfully got up to greet him and inquired about Xu Liās whereabouts.
"Haha, am I not welcome if I come alone?"
Jiang Tao didnāt treat himself as an outsider at all. After entering, he laughed twice and sat down on the guest sofa against the wall.
"You, you surely wouldnāt come to the Three Treasures Hall without a reason! Tell me, whatās the matter."
Du Enan smiled and said a word, turned around from behind the desk, and sat on the sofa opposite Jiang Tao.
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from you, Enan!"
"Itās like this, Enan, yesterday Lili and I went downstairs to Black Bull Barbecue with Third Brother and found their secret barbecue sauce tasted great."
"Donāt you know their boss, President Tian? I want to ask President Tian if they sell their barbecue sauce."
Jiang Tao didnāt beat around the bush with Du Enan and directly stated his purpose for finding her.
"Why are you buying Black Bull Barbecueās sauce? Are you also planning to open a barbecue restaurant?"
Du Enan was somewhat surprised and looked at him with doubt when she heard Jiang Taoās words.
"Yes, I have that consideration."
Jiang Tao smiled openly and did not hide his real intention.
He indeed wanted to open a barbecue restaurant for his dad and mom.
It would both fulfill their dream of having a store and serve as a venture for him to develop.
If he could get his hands on the recipe for Black Bull Barbecueās sauce and then have Brother Tongzi analyze and upgrade it.
The quality of the barbecue sauce would surely rise to a new level.
By then, his familyās barbecue restaurant would surely become popular, just like Black Bull Barbecue, with constant foot traffic.
Becoming an internet-famous restaurant would only be a matter of time.
"Since you have this idea, Iāll introduce you to President Tian, so you can get to know each other."
"As for their special recipe, you also know itās special, itās the core technology of their barbecue restaurant."
"Whether they sell it or not, I canāt influence that."
Du Enan smiled at Jiang Tao. She really liked Jiang Tao for being ambitious and daring to think and act.
For her, itās not difficult to introduce Jiang Tao to Black Bull Barbecueās President Tian.
She was happy to offer Jiang Tao this small favor.
Jiang Tao nodded: "Then, please help me contact that President Tian, Enan."
"Okay, Iāll call her right now."
Du Enan was very straightforward and attentive to the request from her family member Jiang Tao.
She immediately got up, returned to her desk, picked up her phone, and found Tian Weiās number to dial.
Beep beep beepā
The call was quickly connected, and a clear and pleasant womanās voice came from the other side.
"Hey Enan, today the sun must have risen from the west. This is the first time in all the time weāve known each other that youāve called me first."
"Is it the first time? You must be mistaken, I remember calling you several times. Weiwei, are you in the shop today?"
Du Enan laughed and said a word to Tian Wei, and then got straight to the point.
"Just right, I have a good friend here whoās very interested in your storeās barbecue sauce and wants to talk to you face-to-face. Are you free now?"
"Hehe, then I must thank you for giving me such face. Letās do a beauty treatment together someday."
"Okay, Iām in the office. Come up, Iāll be waiting for you."
After briefly communicating with Tian Wei on the phone, Du Enan hung up and looked at Jiang Tao with a smile, snapping her fingers.
"All set."
Jiang Tao smiled and said, "Thank you, Enan, Iāll treat you to a meal another day."
Du Enan smiled and said, "No need for āanother day,ā let it be today, at your place."
Jiang Tao laughed heartily: "Haha, sure, no problem! Youāve helped me a lot, itās only right to invite you."
"If I come every day, wonāt you get tired of me?"
"I donāt know if Lili will get tired of you, but I surely would."
"Huh?"
"Haha, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, I surely wouldnāt."
"Looks like you accidentally told the truth!"
"Heaven forbid, it was 100% a slip of the tongue!"
