Chapter 1062: Don't Waste Your Time Here

~7 min read 1,334 words

Perhaps due to the habits formed in the business world, after recognizing Shen Li, the man exclaimed her name and wanted to enthusiastically step forward to shake her hand.

It scared Shen Li into taking a step back subconsciously.

He Bin was quick-witted and stepped sideways to protect Shen Li behind him.

"Boss Sui, keep your voice down, don't let people hear."

That Boss Sui immediately realized his reaction and behavior were a bit inappropriate. He retracted his hand awkwardly, smiled, and nodded: "Right, right, I was a bit too excited. Boss He, I really didn't expect that you and the big star Shen Li were family."

As he spoke, he looked around He Bin's small shop with a sigh.

He thought to himself that with such a popular big star in the family, he was still working so hard to open a roast goose shop.

It was ultimately inappropriate for the two of them to block the door, so out of politeness, He Bin let Boss Sui into the shop.

As soon as Boss Sui walked into the shop, he saw the plate of roast goose that Shen Li and Wang Ziyu hadn't finished, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Boss He, your roast goose looks extraordinary just by looking at it. It's even more beautiful than the roast goose in those top-tier Cantonese restaurants I've eaten at. It's oily and bright, and the color of the meat is right. No wonder I can't stop thinking about it."

He didn't say a word of business, starting with a round of praise, and there was a clear tendency to flatter. This person was clearly here with a purpose.

Shen Li understood her uncle-in-law; he was always very polite to people, and it was rare to see helplessness and resistance on his face.

So Shen Li couldn't help but ask: "Uncle-in-law, does this uncle have something to ask of you?"

He Bin nodded and explained: "Boss Sui ate our roast goose and wants to cooperate with us."

"Cooperate?"

Shen Li blinked in surprise and looked at the two of them with confusion: "How to cooperate?"

Before He Bin could speak, Boss Sui interrupted excitedly: "Of course, a win-win cooperation!"

His eyes widened and shone, as if he had already seen the brilliant future of their cooperation. He explained to Shen Li with spittle flying: "I'm in the food business. Your roast goose is too delicious, but there's only this one shop, and it's so small."

"The amount roasted every day sells out in half an hour. It's in short supply, and many people want to eat it but can't."

"So we cooperate, make your roast goose into vacuum-packed products, and sell them to supermarkets all over the country. With such a good taste, it will absolutely be a hit, and it's not impossible to go global in the future!"

This pie in the sky was drawn really big. Coupled with Boss Sui's impassioned tone, it really had a bewitching power.

Fortunately, Shen Li and He Bin were very clear-headed people.

Not only were they clear-headed, but even Wang Ziyu couldn't help but frown upon hearing it and took the initiative to say softly: "That won't work, right? The roast goose Uncle-in-law makes is all about being freshly roasted, sold, and eaten. If it's made into vacuum packaging, the taste will definitely be different, and even the basic crispiness of the skin can't be guaranteed."

Shen Li also nodded: "That's right. Fresh roast goose is the most delicious, but no matter how delicious it is, once it becomes a pre-made product, it's completely two different things."

With A-Li and Wang Ziyu speaking for him, He Bin saved his breath. He just looked at Boss Sui and sighed: "Boss Sui, look, two children know such a simple truth. I already expressed my stance to you before. My craft must be eaten fresh. Your food business is not suitable for me."

"All my processes and ingredients are pure natural with zero additives. If you want to make it into fast food, even if it's vacuum-packed, you have to add additives to extend the shelf life. Once things are added, the taste changes, and then it's not my roast goose anymore."

"So I'm really sorry. And my business is just for fun. I roast ten geese a day and sell them to customers who are destined to like them. I'm quite content with that, so let's forget about the cooperation."

He Bin was really enjoying his current state of life now.

He listened to Shen Ci's words, roasting ten geese a day, slowly and leisurely finishing all the work. It was something he loved, and it wasn't tiring.

And the price he sold them for wasn't low either. After deducting all costs, he could earn quite a bit every month. He was really content.

Most importantly, he had plenty of time to take care of his wife, washing clothes and cooking for his wife who was even more hardworking.

Both children were grown up now, and Shen Ci had solved their housing and car problems. Their lives had no pressure; the rest was just enjoyment.

Shen Yingying enjoyed the process of transforming into a strong career woman.

He Bin also enjoyed his current state of being calm and at ease.

But Boss Sui didn't know this, and he certainly wouldn't give up so easily.

"Oh, Boss He, don't worry about that. We will strictly control the quality of the food. You don't need to worry about whether the skin is crispy or not. Our fast food just needs to be heated in an air fryer, and it will be just like fresh out of the oven."

He Bin couldn't help but laugh: "Boss Sui, can an air fryer be the same as a hanging oven? And roast goose cannot be made into fast food; it just doesn't taste good."

"Of course, if you insist on doing this, I won't stop you. You can find someone else to cooperate with, but it definitely won't work here with me."

"Oh, Boss He, you look like such a kind person, why is your temper so stubborn?" Boss Sui had no choice and took out a business card from his pocket again: "I left in a hurry last time and didn't have time to leave you my business card. Can you really consider it again?"

He looked at Shen Li. As expected of a businessman, he talked about business models right away: "We cooperate, and then we'll have Shen Li endorse our roast goose. How convenient is that? With the celebrity effect, we'll advertise again, and maybe we can sell it at a higher price than in your shop."

Shen Li sighed speechlessly. If she really came to endorse roast goose, Sister Kuan would definitely be so angry she'd faint.

He Bin was even more startled. The price he sold in his shop was already expensive enough, and he wanted to sell it even more expensively as fast food? He was even less willing to earn this black-hearted money.

So he didn't take the business card either. He Bin's face darkened slightly: "Don't waste your time here. I won't consider this matter. I have things to do, so I won't see you out."

Boss Sui could naturally hear that this was an order to leave, so he couldn't be shameless and not leave.

He turned and put the business card on the table, then said to He Bin: "If you change your mind, give me a call, okay?"

He Bin remained silent, and Shen Li and Wang Ziyu looked at each other helplessly.

As a result, before Boss Sui left, he still wanted Shen Li to sign for him: "My daughter loves you so much. Her room is full of your merchandise, photos, small cards, and so on. She spent a lot of money! Sign it for me, I'll take it back to my daughter, she'll definitely be happy!" ===== CHAPTER 1063 =====
