Chapter 160 Winter Solstice, small gathering! [Second update]
Wu Jiale has already had several sets of beverage packages designed for Xiao Hunyuan Tang, and the design drafts were passed on to Chen Muyu.
Chen Muyu was not a picky person, so he chose a porcelain vase inlaid with gold patterns that looked more pleasing to the eye and gave it back to Wu Jiale.
Since it is intended to be sold to rich people, the packaging must naturally look rich at first glance.
Wu Jiale is looking for someone to do other things, so Chen Muyu doesn’t have to worry at all.
The entire production process is that Chen Muyu first provides the original soup, which is then diluted and packaged by the factory, and then sold, so there is no need to worry about the leakage of the formula.
Since it is a small batch production, one production line is enough. Wu Jiale estimated that it will take about a month for the production line to be ready and the first batch of finished products to be delivered.
As for the name of the drink, Chen Muyu hasn’t decided yet and needs to spend time thinking about it.
…
The day of the winter solstice.
I made an appointment with Xu Meng to have mutton soup together. Xu Meng also brought a few friends from school so that everyone could get to know each other.
Of course, Chen Muyu’s treat.
Chen Muyu also called Wu Xiaobao to support himself. After all, Xu Meng had friends coming over, and he didn't bring any of them, which seemed too shameless and insincere.
Xiaoguanmiao Street, a store belonging to Wu Xiaobao’s family.
The few days before and after the winter solstice every year are the most lively here. There are many restaurants selling mutton soup. There is usually no business, so they make money during these days.
They had reserved their seats early. When Chen Muyu came, there were already many people on the street. The smell of mutton soup filled the street. Many merchants had set up tents on the road. In order to sell more tables, they set up stalls.
The outside is coming.
It is very lively with pedestrians coming and going.
It’s still early and Xu Meng hasn’t arrived yet, so he has to occupy his seat in the private room.
I ordered three kilograms of mutton, three kilograms of haggis, and some vegetarian dishes. I put them in the pot and cooked them first, and waited slowly without any rush.
“How’s the thing I asked you to do go?”
The pot was bubbling, and Chen Muyu asked about the pig blood.
Wu Xiaobao laughed dryly and said, "I was just about to tell you that in the past few days, I have asked people to find several slaughterhouses, and it seems that it is not as simple as we thought..."
"These slaughterhouses have basically signed supply contracts with some local catering companies. Some of the pig blood was taken away as soon as it was produced. The amount we asked for was too large and it had to be fresh. No one could eat it.
Come down..."

Speaking of this, Wu Xiaobao looked a little confused. It was true that he had thought of things too simply before.
Indeed, in the entire provincial capital, tens of thousands of pigs must be killed every day to ensure supply, but these tens of thousands of pigs are not killed by a single slaughterhouse, and a large part of them have already signed contracts and are marketable. You suddenly want to
It's not easy to make sure it's fresh for such a large amount.
If nothing else, how to store and transport 100,000 liters of pig blood is a problem. Pig blood is only fresh for a while right after it is killed, and it will solidify after a short time.
"If one family is not enough, then find a few more. It doesn't have to be pig blood, any kind of cow blood or sheep blood will do..."
"If that doesn't work, you can just give me two thousand catties first!"
At the end of the day, Chen Muyu settled for the next best thing. If one hundred thousand liters was not easy to produce, then he would do one thousand liters first.
Go step by step, first open the second to last door in the underground palace, and then proceed.
Furthermore, this method may not necessarily work. It happens that a thousand liters is not worth much money. Try it first to see if it works, and then talk about the remaining 100,000 liters.
“You told me earlier, Brother Yu!”
Hearing what Chen Muyu said, Wu Xiaobao breathed a sigh of relief, "It would be much easier if it was only two thousand kilograms. I will come down and contact you and we should be able to solve it, but I'm afraid you will have to go and take a look at it then."
While he was talking, Xu Meng had already arrived.
There were three girls and two boys who came with them, plus Chen Muyu and Wu Xiaobao, so there were eight people, just enough for a table.
Xu Meng introduced each other. The three girls were all Xu Meng’s classmates.
There is a girl named Wang Hui who wears glasses and looks relatively elegant. She is currently studying in graduate school with Xu Meng, and the other two have already joined the workforce.
There are two other girls, one is wearing a long black down jacket, her name is Liu Jiao, she has long hair, although she doesn’t look very outstanding, she has a good figure, and the thick down jacket can’t cover it up.
There is also a man in a white coat, his name is Ren Xue. He is a little thin. Although his figure is not very good, he still has a good-looking face and is very delicate.
There are two men left. One is wearing thick black-rimmed glasses, a little restrained, and has an honest face. I heard that he is a graduate student at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China. He is Ren Xue's boyfriend, named Hou Yong.
There is also a neatly dressed boy in a suit and leather shoes. His name is Fang Jie, who also graduated from Xichuan University. He is in the same department as Xu Meng and the others. He is Liu Jiao's suitor. He just looks a bit ordinary and is a little bald, but he is
It is said that he has an eccentric personality and Liu Jiao seems to despise him.
Of course, Xu Meng told Chen Muyu in private. He was not called today, but he knew Liu Jiao was coming, so he came anyway.
For Chen Muyu, the visitor is a guest. One more person and one more pair of chopsticks.
“Xiaomeng, your boyfriend is very handsome!”
Liu Jiao is obviously outgoing. After introducing them all, she started teasing Xu Meng.
It is said that men are lustful, but in fact women are even more lustful. When they meet a handsome person, they always want to take a second look.
Especially someone like Chen Muyu who is tall, handsome, and elegant.
The three girls were all the same. They glanced at Chen Muyu from time to time. Although they couldn't eat, it was good to keep their eyes open.
“I know why Xiaomeng you didn’t fall in love in college. It turns out that you are hiding such a handsome guy!” Ren Xue also followed suit.
Xu Meng glanced at Chen Muyu and couldn't help but chuckle, "What's the point of being handsome? You can't be eaten!"
“Ha, you are a stuffed man but a hungry man is hungry. Who says you can’t eat it? If you don’t want to eat it, you might as well give it to me!” Liu Jiao giggled, and the women burst into laughter.
How about calling a group of women "Zhazha"? They were eating and laughing, and the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became brighter.
“Ahem!”
Beside him, the man named Fang Jie kept coughing.
“Hey, hey, hey, we sisters are chatting, can you not make a scene?” Liu Jiao’s face changed, not saving any face for Fang Jie.
Being scolded in public, Fang Jie's face turned slightly red, "Jiaojiao, why don't you be more reserved? Don't act like a nympho when meeting everyone. I don't like your character very much!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene became a little stiff. Chen Muyu was also a little stunned. Is this guy definitely chasing Liu Jiao? Or is it Liu Jiao who is chasing this guy? Otherwise, why is he using this tone?
Several girls were quite embarrassed and didn’t say anything.
