?Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Labor (Part 2, asking for monthly votes) Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Labor (Part 2, asking for monthly votes) “If we suddenly need forty more catties of tofu, other areas will have to give up some. Most of them, too, had agreed to set amounts previously. If we provide less than promised all of a sudden, it might not be easy for us to explain,” said Dong Dazhu awkwardly, while rubbing his hands.
“We did not anticipate that there would be such a high demand for tofu at the restaurant. Once the tofu dishes are on the tables, they are devoured instantly. The shop managers also wanted to take some home for personal use. Suddenly we found ourselves short of tofu. Initially, we considered asking each household to provide twenty more catties of tofu, which would make it an extra 80 catties in total. But we decided that placing such a large and sudden order might be difficult for you, Miss Zhuang. So we thought it might be better to ask each household for an extra ten catties first.”
“I understand the difficulties each household is facing. But it is a struggle for me to suddenly come up with forty more catties…”
Zhuang Qingning pondered for a while, then said, “How about this? Since you have already made the request, it does not look good if I do not comply at all. But if I agree to the full request, it might be very difficult for me. Hence, how about I provide an extra five catties to each household, making it a total of twenty catties?”
“From now on, if you want to make additional requests, please let me know one day in advance, so I can prepare. This will help avoid disputes.”
To outright refuse might look arrogant, but if she accepted completely it might suggest she has tofu to spare and did not value it as much. Therefore, Zhuang Qingning thought of a compromise to demonstrate her consideration and ability to negotiate.
“Deal. We will follow Miss Zhuang’s advice!” Dong Dazhu nodded in agreement.
