Chapter 210 Eating in a Restaurant
Chapter 210 Eating in a Restaurant
"Ah."
Shen Yuan did not deny it. He nodded and took out the blueprint.
The old master was very interested. Although there was still no business these days, he was interested in whether this man had created something good again.
Sure enough, when he saw that thing, he had never seen it before.
"May I ask, what is this used for?"
There is still only the iron part, not the full picture.
"Master, I need a seed drill urgently. Can you make it in two days?"
The old master looked at the three things that looked like plowshares and nodded immediately:
"I can do it, no problem."
A seeder, as the name suggests, is a tool for sowing. It is indeed another new gadget.
This couple is amazing.
He has to do it well so that he can brag about it for a long time when he succeeds.
After paying the silver, the family of three came out of the blacksmith shop. It was already noon, and Xiao Yue'er was starving, so Shen Yuan took his wife and daughter to a restaurant for dinner.
Since I wanted to talk to Shen Hua about something, I simply went to the restaurant where Shen Hua worked.
In fact, there is only this one restaurant in their town.
It is called a restaurant, but it is actually a small restaurant.
Shen Hua was indeed there, but he was taking a nap on the table. There was also a shopkeeper sitting at the table drinking tea. There was not a single customer in the lobby.
However, he was always alert, and when he sensed someone coming in, he jumped up almost as if in response to a stress.
"Please come in, guest officer."
After saying this, he opened his eyes wide and saw who was coming.
"Brother Yuan, sister-in-law, Xiao Yue'er, why are you here? Am I dazzled?"
At this time, shouldn’t we sow seeds on the arable land?
"Bring us some food first. We're hungry."
Shen Yuan waved his hand, and Shen Hua immediately said:
"What do you want to eat? I'll go order them."
Shen Yuan was impatient:
"Make some delicious dishes from your restaurant, and quickly."
Shen Hua immediately ran to the kitchen, brought out a kettle of water and poured it for them.
"Brother Yuan, drink some water quickly."
Seeing that there were no customers, Shen Hua greeted the shopkeeper and sat down.
"How is Second Uncle doing lately?"
Shen Yuan took a sip of water and wanted to ask about his second uncle's situation.
"My father stays at the oil refinery every day. He is cleaning it these days and doing some repairs. It looks like we will soon be back to normal life, and the oil refinery business cannot be interrupted. However, it is difficult to do business now."
Shen Hua's face was filled with worry whenever he mentioned the oil refinery.
"By the way, Brother Yuan, sister-in-law, don't bother with my mother. She got a lesson this time when she went back to her parents' home. My eldest and second uncles disliked her for eating food at home, so they made her work all day long and didn't give her good food. They just closed the door and ate delicious food."
"My mother even heard them secretly scolding my father for being stupid, saying that he owed us money for the sesame oil and that it was okay if he didn't give it to us. Anyway, my mother had a hard time during those days at her parents' home. This time, she must have been really hurt by her parents' home and she needs to change for the better."
"I've been very nice to my dad these days and never said anything good about my mother's family again."
Shen Hua finished speaking in one breath, and it was obvious that he was very satisfied with his current family. Isn't it good for a family to live in harmony?
He hadn't felt this way in a long time.
"That's good. This is your family's business. Your brother Yuan and I naturally have no right to interfere."
Su Wanwan was not interested in listening to their family affairs, but if Second Uncle's wife could really see the true face of her mother's family and live a good life with Second Uncle from now on, it would be a good thing.
Originally, because of her second aunt's mother's affairs, she and Shen Yuan were a little reluctant to give the refinery business to her second uncle, but after thinking about it, they decided that it would not be appropriate not to give it to her second uncle.
A contract must be signed on both sides, and it doesn't matter who it is handed over to, it's none of their family business.
Shen Yuan had already taken out the drawings that he had prepared long ago.
"This is the blueprint drawn by your sister-in-law. It is clearly marked. This oil refining method saves time and effort. We will also grow other oil-producing crops in the future. Go back and show it to Second Uncle."
Shen Hua was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Brother Yuan came to him for this matter.
What kind of oil refining method is this?
Although Shen Hua is working as a waiter now, he has been influenced by oil refining since he was a child and is naturally very familiar with it.
The drawing was also clear, and he could tell the difference at a glance.
"this............."
Shen Hua was a little surprised.
What does my sister-in-law’s family do? Not only do they make curved plows, but they also know how to refine oil?
"We are not letting you use it for free. We are not responsible for your subsequent sales. You have to purchase the raw materials yourself. It is just a drawing. We will charge you 20% of the profit in the future, but only for one year. After that, everything will be yours."
This is also the way of cooperation that the couple discussed.
This oil refining technology can be imitated by others at a glance, unlike ceramic products, where new products emerge in an endless stream. Su Wanwan will also have to come up with sales ideas and draw other pictures in the later stage.
The oil refinery only has this one picture. When it is promoted and all places start using this oil refining method, it would be a bit destructive to family ties if profits were made from this picture.
As for how long Second Uncle and his people can keep this oil refining technology hidden, that depends on them.
At that time, the technology was a family heirloom, but it was normal for it to be stolen by others. It was very easy to take a peek at such a large refinery. Oil refining was also considered a level of agricultural technology. It might even be discovered by the government and promoted vigorously.
But if you seize the first few years, the profits can be very considerable.
They only take 20% of the annual profit, also considering the family affection for Shen Yuan, so naturally they are different from others.
Shen Hua opened his mouth slightly and looked for a long time before he said in shock.
"Brother Yuan, are you really going to give me such a good thing?"
With this oil refining technology, the oil yield will probably increase a lot, and Brother Yuan only wants such a small amount of money.
"Brother Yuan, you guys...I..."
He didn't know what to say.
"Work hard. When you are too busy, you can go back and help your father to become a big oil refiner as soon as possible."
Shen Yuan patted his shoulder and said no more.
A major oil refiner?
Why don't you talk about the oil tycoon?
Su Wanwan chuckled.
Shen Hua was already choking up a little, and nodded heavily:
"Okay, thank you Brother Yuan, I'll tell Dad when I get back."
Su Wanwan reminded:
"If you agree, start the renovation as soon as possible. It will be ready for use in the autumn harvest. You must keep the blueprints. If they are stolen by others, you will not be able to seize the initiative."
Shen Hua was a smart man. He naturally understood the hidden meaning of the words and nodded immediately.
"Okay, I understand. I'll go back and tell Dad."
Who should I be wary of? Of course I should be wary of his confused mother. Although he has been behaving well recently, who knows if his uncle and the others come to admit their mistakes again and he will be confused again.
As they were talking, the food was finally served.
