Chapter 100 - Youre Wang Ming? (2/2)
Since he's buying in bulk, he was sure that he could negotiate prices with the supplier too, which meant that after costs he could probably at least earn 1-2 million yuan just from Wang Ming's one deal. It wouldn't take more than a few years before he could sell his shop and retire! Even though he's a shop owner after all costs, he usually only earns 400 thousand.
”Are you sure you said 1000 to 2000 pounds? You meant 100 to 200 right?”
”No, my restaurant sold an average of 1000 pounds of pork belly before, but I want to increase the number so I think a safe estimate for now would be 2000 for now it could go up I need to see if the demand is still there.”
”How…?”
Crazy Nu felt dumbfounded he just couldn't believe that a restaurant could sell so much pork belly in a month. If such a popular restaurant exists, it would have gotten a ton of publicity, unless.
”What is your restaurant called again Young Master.”
”Please don't call me Young Master once again, just call me Wang Ming, I don't need people running around calling me Young Master. I named my restaurant after my surname Wang's family restaurant, it's fairly popular so you don't need to worry.”
Crazy Nu closed his eyes and kept mumbling the name of Wang Ming's restaurant repeatedly like a ghost had just possessed him, but after 10 seconds he opened his eyes and screamed.
”It's YOU! I've read about your restaurant in the news multiple times! You're a star Wang Ming, I can't believe that you're buying meat from my shop I'm honored.”
”I assume its good news based on how you're acting? Even though Wang Ming knew that Uncle Hou and Uncle Fu had spread news about his restaurant to everybody, he hadn't read a newspaper nor looked at a tv in months.”
”Yes, yes, yes! You're well known in the food industry now, the biggest ever growing restaurant! I've heard there were over 100 people wanting to become your disciple after learning of your success, but the food mogul in Liaoling city Zhang Hou sent out a strict message that anybody disturbing you would receive dire consequences.”
Wang Ming thought that Crazy Nu were done talking, but he took a deep breath and started talking again. He couldn't fathom how Crazy Nu could talk so fast and so much on one breath.
”IT'S unheard of for a new restaurant to sell as much as you do! Especially since it's your first restaurant. Though sadly not too many people are interested in food and restaurants so most people won't recognize you or know about you, but I assure you, you are a glowing star for all chefs in Liaoling city!”
”Thank you, but I didn't open up my restaurant for fame, I wanted to earn money. So I don't deserve any fame. You won't the deal or not?”
”Of course I want the deal! But don't judge yourself too hard, young man. Most people do this for money until they realize how much the money they earn can help other people. Few starts with noble intentions.”
”Honestly, if I knew that you were the owner of Wang's family restaurant when you stepped in here, I would have given you the ingredients for free! Agck, never mind.”
Crazy Nu realized he was spouting nonsense again, to make Wang Ming feel happy. He would give nobody free stuff unless he absolutely had to.
Laughing from Crazy Nu's reaction Wang Ming finally ordered what he needed though he wouldn't buy the pork belly now as he still needed to check the quality first, but if it's good, he wouldn't mind only ordering from this shop for the pork belly. He only made a small order as he didn't need to buy stuff for the restaurant but was going to test out recipes at home.
Wang Ming wasn't sure of what kind of recipe he wanted to make yet, so he ordered a lot of different meats and vegetables. The only thing he knew for sure is that he wants for it to be another meat dish, as he's not too experienced in dealing with fish, and he didn't feel like this is the time to experiment with it.
