Tang Li made a surprising remark. "I'm just worried that my relationship with President Wen President Wen n't as deep as yours!"
Yun Zhaozhao: "If we're really talking about friendship, then we should have Daoist Chang Kong talk to Wen Xu. Their friendship is the deepest."
Tang Li, as expected of a man who had worked in a large company, was truly knowledgeable and had a divergent mind. In an instant, he came up with very avant-garde terms such as "attracting both men and women" and "bisexuality".
"So you mean, President Wen also has some feelings for Daoist Chang Kong?"
Yun Zhaozhao didn't understand. "... What do you mean?"
Tang Li: "No, what I mean is, does Wen Xu also have a personal relationship with Daoist Chang Kong?"
Yun Zhaozhao: "It's not really a personal relationship, it's more like... feeding, or rather, nurturing?"
Tang Li: "..."
Although that's what she said to Tang Li, Yun Zhaozhao still ended up personally calling Wen Xu Wen Xu to mention Tang Li's suggestion.
Previously, when the Wen family's factory cooperated with other suppliers, those suppliers would eagerly deliver the goods to their door, fearing that a delay would displease the Wen family. Therefore, very few suppliers dared to be as arrogant as Clear Breeze Temple, having the factory drive over to pick up the goods.
Firstly, Wen Xu was also a novice, unlike his father who had a bad temper; secondly, Wen Xu had probably been quite indulgent towards Yun Zhaozhao since they first met, so he actually agreed.
Huang Xi, however, seemed slightly surprised. "You want our factory to provide trucks and drivers to pick up goods from Clear Breeze Temple? Who will cover the transportation costs, fuel expenses, and driver's various expenses?"
Wen Xu waved his hand dismissively. "Of course it belongs to my dad!"
Chapter 107
Although Huang Xi was sent by Wen Zhengrong to follow Wen Xu, her direct superior was actually Wen Zhengrong.
Moreover, when Wen Zhengrong sent her over, she explicitly told her to report on Wen Xu's situation to her frequently.
So after Huang Xi returned to her room, she actually called and reported the situation to Wen Zhengrong in detail. Of course, she didn't say it exactly as Wen Xu had said, but only that Clear Breeze Temple didn't have enough large transport vehicles at the moment, so she wanted to use the factory's vehicles to help transport the goods.
Wen Zhengrong didn't directly refuse; on the contrary, he respected his son's wishes. "What did Wen Xu say?"
Huang Xi hesitated for a moment, then said tactfully, "I think Young President Wen doesn't intend to refuse."
Wen Zhengrong snorted coldly, "I think he not only didn't intend to refuse, but he didn't even care about the small amount of money for transporting goods."
Huang Xi politely remained silent.
It has to be said that there is a clear difference between the first and second generation of entrepreneurs. People like Wen Zhengrong and Yun Zhaozhao are typical examples of those who started from scratch and have experienced the hardships of financial difficulties. Therefore, they will try their best to increase income and reduce expenditure during the entrepreneurial process. But Wen Xu is different. He has never experienced the hardships of financial difficulties since childhood. So even if he is using entrepreneurship as a pretext, he is only focused on making money and does not think about saving money at all.
Therefore, Wen Zhengrong was not surprised at all that Wen Xu would agree.
Actually, this small amount of money was nothing to Wen Zhengrong Wen Zhengrong, but he felt he couldn't spoil his son. So he directly told Huang Xi, "Using the factory's trucks and drivers to pick up goods from Clear Breeze Temple is fine, but all expenses incurred along the way will be deducted from Wen Xu's salary."
Huang Xi: "..." No wonder you two are father and son.
Huang Xi eventually got tired of getting involved and let the father and son do what they wanted. Anyway, no matter who paid for it in the end, it was never her, a lowly employee, who would have to pay for it.
After the factory officially started operating, Wen Xu became extremely busy. He ate and slept at the factory, and it was difficult for him to even leave the factory gate, let alone go out to play.
Yun Zhaozhao has been unusually not very busy lately.
After all, the renovation of the guesthouse is nearing completion, and the next step is to let the smell dissipate. Meanwhile, the work at Clear Breeze Temple and the agricultural base is progressing steadily without any major breakthroughs.
If there's anything keeping them busy, it's that it's spring tea picking season at the tea garden again. Generally, tea leaves are at their most tender and best after the Beginning of Spring and before Grain Rain, so during this period, Yun Zhaozhao had Tang Li post some "calls" for tea picking online, inviting tea lovers and students from the vicinity of City A to come to the tea garden to pick and taste tea.
Daoist Chang Kong spent some time working with Wen Xu and his factory on co-branded products recently. Now that the ingredient lists for those co-branded products have been finalized, he has time to start developing tea-related delicacies.
When it comes to tea-related foods, many people's first thought is tea eggs.
Grandpa Lin's farm, to say the least, has an abundance of eggs. So, Daoist Chang Kong tried using tea leaves grown by Clear Breeze Temple to make several pots of tea eggs for breakfast.
The tea trees on Clear Breeze Mountain belong to the black tea category, hence the name Clear Breeze Tea. When brewed, it has a bright color and a slightly bitter taste, but more importantly, it has the unique fragrance of tea.
When used to boil eggs, the eggs become brighter in color.
In addition to using Clear Breeze Tea to cook tea eggs, Daoist Chang Kong also used Clear Breeze Tea to make a dish of tea-scented meat.
The initial preparation of tea-scented pork is similar to that of braised pork, except that after stir-frying, tea is added and simmered. The aroma of tea blends with the aroma of the pork, making the dish more flavorful. Moreover, the tea helps to cut through the greasiness. Normally, most people find braised pork too greasy after just two or three pieces, but Daoist Chang Kong's tea-scented pork is fatty yet not greasy, fragrant and tender. In any case, everyone loved it as soon as it was served.
Besides these dishes whose names clearly relate to tea, Daoist Chang Kong, along with Daoist Zhu and Daoist Yuan from the Xin Guan Canteen, also made some pasta and desserts specifically for drinking while brewing tea, such as yogurt pastries and jujube flower cakes.
Many Daoist priests have a habit of drinking tea; at least, several of the priests Yun Zhaozhao knows do. So after the tea leaves from Clear Breeze Temple were picked, Yun Zhaozhao specially sent some to the priests she knew.
Especially for Daoist Qingxin, who had been preaching in other places and had just returned recently, Yun Zhaozhao specially asked Jingting to save a large bag for him.
Daoist Qingxin was also very touched to receive the tea. "It's kind of your abbot to remember me whenever he has something good."
Jingting, "That's right. Our Abbot, I dare not say anything else, but in terms of conduct and dealings with others, he is absolutely like that."
Jingting as he spoke, giving a thumbs-up.
Daoist Qingxin, "Let me try it first. If it's good, we'll source all our tea from Clear Breeze Temple from now on. Consider it a favor to you."
Jingting, he was also delighted. "Then I'll go back and talk to our abbot, and we'll give you a discount. After all, we were master and disciple!"
Daoist Qingxin arrogantly, "There's no need to give me a discount. Just pay the price you owe us. Our Daoist temple is so big, do you think we'd be short of money for a little bit of tea?"
Jingting thought back to her previous ghost-catching trips with Daoist Qingxin. Although they hadn't done it many times, Daoist Qingxin always earned a considerable sum. So, not only was Daoist Qingxin's temple quite wealthy, but Master Daoist Qingxin himself was probably also very well-off. With this in mind, Jingting immediately started trying to make money in reverse. "Then I'll go back and discuss it with our abbot, and ask her to raise the price a bit. Consider it your contribution to Clear Breeze Temple."
Daoist Qingxin: "Get out!"
Jingting: "Okay!"

Tea sales at Clear Breeze Temple are surprisingly good. This is probably because many Daoist temples have a demand for tea, and most of them don't produce their own. So everyone feels that instead of going elsewhere to support their business, it's better to support Clear Breeze Temple.
After all, all Daoist temples under heaven are one family!
Besides Daoist temples, many business people now also consider giving tea as a gift when exchanging pleasantries. Of course, they might consider more expensive teas, but novelties like Clear Breeze Tea are also very suitable for entertaining friends privately or as a gift for close acquaintances.
Even Mrs. Mrs. Wang and Xu Fugui's group specially bought several packets of tea from Clear Breeze Temple to take back to visit relatives and friends.
The logo designed by the interns for Clear Breeze Temple came in handy this time. When Yun Zhaozhao was designing the outer packaging for Clear Breeze Tea Clear Breeze Tea, she specifically placed the lucky cat logo on it. Moreover, to avoid future disputes, Yun Zhaozhao consulted Lawyer Wang and then paid the students a design fee to buy the original logo design.
Speaking of which, this logo design inspired the Daoist priests at Clear Breeze Temple who specialize in designing merchandise. They discovered that young people and children alike love animal images, such as the lucky cat.
Therefore, when they designed the area around Clear Breeze Temple later, they would also lean towards this style. They would either design a violent dragon wearing a Daoist hat or a gluttonous and sleepy demolition pig.
In any case, each cartoon character is incredibly lifelike, and most importantly, they perfectly capture the essence of what netizens are looking for.
So much so that when Wen Xu was preparing to design the packaging for their collaborative product, they proactively approached Yun Zhaozhao, saying they wanted the designers from Clear Breeze Temple to help design the packaging pattern.
Yun Zhaozhao: "We don't have the money to hire a professional designer. The Daoist priests in the temple do the design work on a part-time basis!"
Wen Xu was also quite surprised. "A part-time job? But I've seen the souvenirs from your Clear Breeze Temple, and they're all quite well-designed!"
Yun Zhaozhao: "That shows that our Daoist temple is full of hidden talents, all of them are exceptionally capable. Even those working part-time are outstanding, surpassing many professional designers."
Wen Xu: "..." This woman seems to have never known how to write the word "humility".
However, since Wen Xu had taken the initiative to approach her, and this co-branded product was a joint effort between Clear Breeze Temple and Wen Xu, Yun Zhaozhao was willing to give it a try.
However, before the design process began, she specifically reminded Wen Xu: "Our design concept may not align with your company's corporate culture, so to be on the safe side, you should also have your company's own designers design a few backups. That way, if our design concept doesn't suit you, you won't be left without packaging boxes for these collaborative products."
