Transmigrating To Ancient Times With A Kitchen - Chapter 66

66 Jian’s Braised Meat

“Ah?” Jian Rong looked at her in a daze. “What business?”

“Selling meat!”

Jian Rong was puzzled. “But aren’t you the one selling meat? Do you want me to sell it for you?”

“No, I want to franchise. I want to wholesale stewed meat. Then you can buy it from me and sell it in the county or other counties.”

!!
Jian Rong did not understand what ‘franchise’ and ‘wholesale’ meant, but he understood the latter part of the explanation.

His eyes lit up. “Is that okay? Does that mean I can buy meat from you and sell it in other counties?”

Jian Qingqing nodded. “That’s right, that’s what I mean. But in order to let people know that I’m selling this stewed meat at a glance, and to make my stewed meat a brand that everyone knows, I want to make a… logo.”

She had wanted to say logo, however, it was difficult to explain what it was.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. Jian Qingqing waved her arm and said, “Xiao Ye, write down our family name!”

Xiao Ye was helpless. He had already taught them their family name two days ago. At that time, his sister said that she already knew it. How could she forget it after only two days?

Xiao Ye had no choice but to grind the ink and write a tender ‘Jian’ character on the rough paper.

Jian Qingqing took out the Four Treasures of the Study that Ming Zhiyan had given her and used the good ink and paper inside to draw a vivid logo based on the ‘Jian’ character.

In her previous life, she studied art and worked in an art design company. She had designed logos for many companies, so she was very good at this.

The logo was transformed from ‘Jian’ into a large piece of braised meat. It was very fat and cute.

Jian Qingqing thought for a moment and drew a tiger and a wolf on top, one on the left and one on the right, with their mouths wide open, fighting for the piece of meat. Then, at the bottom, there was an endless prairie.

Just like that, a vivid and cute logo of the ‘Jian’s Braised Meat’ was done.

The three children looked at the drawing with their mouths wide open. They were amazed.

“Wow! Sister, you are so awesome!”

“Sister, your painting is really beautiful!”

Seeing Xiao Ye’s look of admiration, Jian Qingqing smiled smugly. “Now you know how amazing your sister is! Do you still dislike me in the future?”

He thought that she did not know, every time she asked a question, this kid would look at her as if she was an idiot.

Xiao ye chuckled embarrassedly. He thought that his sister did not know. “Sister, I won’t do it again in the future. You’re the best!”

Jian Rong asked curiously, “Sister Qingqing, what’s this for?”

“This will be the symbol of our Jian family’s stewed meat in the future. Later, I’ll paint this symbol on my big cloth. In the future, when we go out to the stalls, we’ll hang this cloth. This way, people will know that it’s our stewed meat with one look, and they won’t be afraid of being imitated.”

Jian Rong praised, “Sister Qingqing, you’re really smart!”

“Hehe.”

The next day, Jian Qingqing sold 30 catties of stewed meat to Jian Rong so that he could bring it to the neighboring county to test the waters. She would give him a profit of 20 wen per catty of stewed meat, and the price of the stewed meat would be fixed.

At the same time, she also told this news to the villagers, but no one cared about her. Business was not that easy to do. No family had the spare money to wholesale. What if they could not sell it and wasted the meat? The meat was so expensive.

Jian Rong could do it because he was the only man in his family. In the future, he would be the breadwinner of the entire family. Therefore, his grandmother and mother listened to him very much. Previously, he had also earned a lot of money by selling mushrooms, honeysuckle, and Iron-skinned Dendrobium.

Now, many people in the village said that he was bold. He had put all his family’s assets into it. If he could not do it, it would be terrible.

Jian Rong and Jian Qingqing did not care about these words at all. There was no such thing as free business. The greater the risk, the greater the return.
