After more than ten days of running around, Xu Jie finally returned from Luoyang City.
"Three hundred and twenty wounded horses!"
Meton could not help but be overjoyed when he heard Xu Jie's report of his harvest in Luoyang City.
"Reporting to Boss, with the method and medicine sent by Boss, the 320 horses are gradually recovering. I believe they will be back in a few days." Xu Jie said. The three hundred and twenty horses he spoke of were indeed injured horses that had more than half recovered. There was nothing false about it.
"Shopkeeper Xu, thank you for your hard work!" Meton said excitedly.
Xu Jie revealed a gratified smile. He knew that his first battle in the Village Mo Family Village had finally begun. Xu Jie's trip to Luoyang this time not only allowed him to obtain 320 wounded horses, he had also expanded the Village Mo Family Village's trade route to Luoyang.
Moreover, unlike Xu Jie's previous difficult business, with Meton's method, these 300 horses were almost as easy as picking them up in Luoyang. Xu Jie, who had been doing business all his life, had never experienced such an easy business.
The second battle was Xu Jie's meticulously planned Mo Family's Food City. This was the most important battle for Xu Jie to gain a foothold in Village Mo.
The artificially hatched chickens, ducks, and geese had already grown up after a few months of growth. At this moment, Meton started the Mo Family's Food City to fulfill his promise to Li Shimin. He would not harm the farmers with cheap meat.
"I'll have to trouble Mr. Xu with the Mo Family's Food City." Merton said.
Xu Jie nodded solemnly. He realized that the Village Mo's business was very different from his previous business. In the past, he only did business for profit by any means necessary. However, the Village Mo's business pursued a win-win situation. He had never heard of selling things to customers and helping them to profit.
"After-sales service!" Every time Xu Jie thought of the word Meton said, he would have a new understanding.
The Mo Family's Food City was actually the product of Goubuli's Bun Shop, Fish Scholar's Restaurant, and Mo's Skill Exhibition.
Since Mo Hospital was established, the road in front of the Imperial College gradually became busy. Every day, there was an endless stream of people coming and going. Since ancient times, it was easy to form a commercial area in front of hospitals and schools. Therefore, the Mo Family's Food City naturally came into being.
And since Xu Jie tasted the delicacies of the Mo Family, he was full of praise. In addition, after studying the branch model of the Goubuli Bun Shop, he immediately felt that it was very promising. The Gourmet City of the Mo Family was an attempt made by Xu Jie for the Mo Family's Village. If it was feasible, he would immediately promote it like the Goubuli Bun Shop.
Fish Scholar's Restaurant!
Xu Jie and Master Yu had excited expressions as they watched the large-scale construction of the Mo Skill Exhibition.
"Brother" Xu's "and Xu's...........
... and Xu............ com........... a........
"The Village Mo is really skilled!" Xu Jie sighed in admiration when he saw Mo Jiazi's brother lift and install the huge heavy objects with a pulley tool.
In Xu Jie's eyes, this tool was also of great commercial value. Xu Jie felt that the Village Mo was giving him more and more surprises.
Of course, it was not the time to promote it. According to Mr. Zhang, they were developing a kind of iron rope made of steel wire. If they succeeded, it would be easy for one person to lift a heavy object with the help of this tool.
Xu Jie suppressed the shock in his heart. He could imagine that once the Village Mo really developed it, it would cause a great sensation.
Xu Jie had only been in the Village Mo for half a month, but he found himself shocked too many times. But now, the most important thing was the Mo Family's Food City in front of him.
"Brother Yu, please take care of the training of the chefs." Xu Jie cupped his hands to Mr. Yu.
The most important thing in the Food City was the chefs. Mr. Yu was responsible for the training of the chefs.
"Brother Xu, don't worry. I won't let you down." Mr. Yu promised confidently.
At this moment, Yu Er ran over with a flustered look and whispered in Mr. Yu's ear.
Xu Jie saw Mr. Yu's face suddenly become gloomy. He could not help but ask, "Brother Yu, what happened?"
"My son went to buy fine salt just now, but it was all out of stock!" Mr. Yu said seriously.
Yu Zhuangyuan was running a top restaurant, so of course, he used the best fine salt. But now, he could not buy fine salt. If Yu Zhuangyuan really used coarse salt as seasoning, the taste would be greatly reduced. Soon, his reputation would be ruined.
"Fine salt is Yun City's fine salt!" Xu Jie was moved and asked. He also planned to use fine salt for the Mo Family's Food City. It would be a joke if there was a shortage of salt after the opening.
"Boss! The best salt in Chang 'an is Yun City's fine salt. Whether it's Sichuan Well Salt or Qi Di Sea Salt, the taste is terrible and full of impurities. It's fine for household use, but not for the restaurant, "Yu Er replied.
"Did you find out the reason? How long will it take to get the goods?" Xu Jie asked.
"It's said that the production of salt has decreased, and there are big customers from other places who have made a big order," Yu Er replied.
"No, I have to make a trip personally. I must buy fine salt!" Mr. Yu said anxiously. He was a chef, so of course, he knew the importance of salt. Taste meant reputation. If a restaurant lost its reputation, it would not be far from closing down. Yu Zhuangyuan's restaurant was his blood, sweat, and tears. He could not let it be ruined.
"Brother Yu, you don't have to go!" Xu Jie stopped the anxious Mr. Yu with a bitter smile.
Mr. Yu looked at Xu Jie doubtfully. One had to know that fine salt was related to the success or failure of the Mo Family's Food City.
"This Xu has implicated Brother Yu in this matter! Brother Yu, you may not know this, but the real owner of Yun City's fine salt is the Taiyuan Wang Family! "Xu Jie said bitterly.
Yun City's salt pond was one of the most famous salt ponds in the Tang dynasty. Since the Han dynasty, it had been developed on a large scale and was sold to the Guannei. It was the most important source of edible salt in Chang 'an!
The Tang dynasty did not implement the salt industry. The Taiyuan Wang Family had been operating in Taiyuan for hundreds of years. Although they did not directly control the salt pond, they firmly controlled the most profitable fine salt in their hands.
Xu Jie felt a strong sense of the Taiyuan Wang Family's style from this direct method of cutting off salt. Back then, his Xu's Trading Company had collapsed because of the Taiyuan Wang Family's trick.
"Salt is a national treasure. How could it be used for private purposes? Mr. Yu said angrily.
In fact, this was not only because of the incident with Xu Jie. The horse injury incident had already caused the young master to fall out with the Wang Family. He did not expect the Wang Family to use such a despicable method.
Xu Jie nodded bitterly. He had a deep understanding of these families' wanton plundering with their special privileges.
Soon, a notice was posted outside Yu Zhuangyuan's restaurant to close down. However, to the public, it was to cooperate with the opening of the Mo Family's Food City and temporarily stabilize the customers.
In Sun Yangzheng's restaurant!
Wang Zhe was having a feast with Zhangsun Chong. When he heard the news of Yu Zhuangyuan's restaurant closing down, he could not help but laugh.
Wang Zhe had carefully studied the business model of Yu Zhuangyuan's restaurant and found that the ingredients were directly provided by the Mo Family Village. It was impossible to tamper with the ingredients. After studying for a long time, the only flaw was the fine salt.
"Congratulations, Brother Wang's plan has succeeded. You have eliminated another strong opponent for Sun Yangzheng's restaurant." Zhangsun Chong flattered with a smile. No one had expected that the famous Sun Yangzheng's restaurant in Chang 'an City was also the property of the Taiyuan Wang Family.
A few months after the Yang Xian incident, the business of Sun Yangzheng's restaurant gradually returned to normal. However, it was suddenly challenged by Yu Zhuangyuan. This time, Wang Zhe wanted to deal with the Mo Family Village not only to vent his anger, but also to compete for interests.
"I have never taken Mo Jiazi seriously. However, Qin Huaiyu and the others will have to rely on Brother Zhangsun's help!" Wang Zhe said.
He cupped his hands and said.
Although the Mo Family Village suffered the most from the salt cutting, Qin Huaiyu and the other two also suffered losses.
