Three minutes later.
The virtual account that Wen Xi had just set up began to vibrate, and the notification sound for direct messages in the background rang non-stop.
[User A]: Can you really deliver hot food? This isn’t a scam?
Hot Food Supplier: No deception; we pay ten times the price for any fakes.
[User B]: I want five basic sets, right now!
“The overwhelming wealth has arrived!”
Wen Xi was full of ambition, feeling that mission victory was right in front of her, and she immediately accepted all the orders!
She matched one page, then opened the food delivery app on another page to place the orders directly.
She changed the addresses.
Cash on delivery.
This way, the money would go directly into her account, and when the time came, she would directly purchase gold to store it.
This was why she wanted cash.
Because she could use the banknotes that others couldn’t, and she could easily exchange them for the gold that others couldn’t trade!
An hour later.
The first batch of three hundred lunch boxes was sent out.
Wen Xi directly copied the buyers’ addresses, set the prices herself, and transmitted the goods, while simultaneously receiving the virtual currency paid by the other parties; it was swift and convenient.
“Ding!”
[Xu Xiaoxiao] requested to add Hot Food Supplier as a friend.
Wen Xi: !!
Oh, a big client has arrived!
Wen Xi raised an eyebrow and accepted the request.
[Xu Xiaoxiao]: “Hello, I am the logistics supervisor of Nanshan Nursing Home. I saw your advertisement for hot food supply and would like to discuss a long-term cooperation.”
Sure enough, they came.
Wen Xi deliberately waited for two minutes before replying: “What are your requirements?”
[Xu Xiaoxiao]: “200 basic sets and 100 deluxe sets for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day for one week. If the quality is guaranteed, we can renew the contract.”
900 sets every day!
But Wen Xi didn’t rush to agree: “Three days is fine, and the price must be increased by 20%.”
[Xu Xiaoxiao]: “That is acceptable, but I require a portion of seasonal fruit with every meal, and you must provide three servings of specially supplied stewed soup.”
The bargaining round had arrived. Wen Xi was well-prepared: “Fruit is an additional 100 yuan/portion, and the stewed soup is calculated separately at 200 yuan/portion.”
The other side was silent for a moment.
[Xu Xiaoxiao]: “Deal. We need to sign an electronic contract; is that convenient for you?”
Wen Xi squinted her eyes.
Xu Xiaoxiao’s supernatural item, [Legal Contract], was nothing to mess around with; once signed, it had mandatory force.
“Can I sign the contract using a virtual mask?” She clicked on the Virtual Mask app and asked customer service directly.
[Security Customer Service]: Dear, you can create a fake online identity, including but not limited to IP address, device information, electronic signature, etc. Supernatural items are also included.
It was solid.
Hot Food Supplier: “Yes. Send over the contract to look at.”
Xu Xiaoxiao quickly sent the PDF file.
Wen Xi carefully reviewed the terms:
Party A (Hot Food Supplier) must guarantee food quality; if any food safety issues arise, they must compensate ten times the cost of the ingredients;
Party B (Nanshan Nursing Home) must not maliciously destroy or breach the contract;
…
The contract is valid for three days and will automatically terminate upon expiration;
There were no trap clauses.
Wen Xi clicked “Sign,” and the Virtual Mask app automatically generated a virtual electronic signature.
[Ding! Contract signed successfully!]
[Xu Xiaoxiao]: “Happy cooperation. Sitting and waiting for today’s meals.”
Ten minutes later, the first batch of 300 dinners was successfully selected: minced meat and eggplant rice bowl with seaweed soup.
After all orders were placed and delivered, Wen Xi simultaneously received the payment.
As well as feedback from Xu Xiaoxiao:
[Xu Xiaoxiao]: “The elderly are very satisfied, it’s just that the meat portion could be a bit more.”
Hot Food Supplier: “Starting tomorrow, I will add half a portion of meat to each meal, price unchanged.”
Food delivery naturally didn’t have much meat; if they wanted more meat, they would have to pay extra themselves and click “add half a portion of meat.”
Appropriately granting concessions could maintain long-term cooperation. Wen Xi understood that big clients like Nanshan Nursing Home were the key to completing the challenge.
[Xu Xiaoxiao]: “(*￣︶￣) Then we will definitely renew the contract after it expires, and we are willing to increase the budget by 20%.”
Wen Xi readily agreed; it wasn’t like she was the one cooking anyway.
It was just a matter of moving her fingers.
“Even ‘Pinhuofan’ (cheap bulk food delivery) has become a luxury item. And this is only in the whole district, not the whole city.”
Wen Xi ordered a deluxe midnight snack for herself as a reward, and couldn’t help but start thinking about other types of supply distribution.
Although Hot Food Supplier was also quite substantial.
In just her game area alone, orders were already lined up for three days, and Nanshan Nursing Home alone accounted for the bulk of the daily sales.
But it would only be for these two or three days. Once the 200,000 mission was completed, the raw material funding would drop to 10,000, and excluding her necessary expenses, there would be very little left to use.
Although there was that music box for item production, Wen Xi hadn’t decided what item to set it as and hadn’t planned to use it rashly.
“But selling other things would be too energy-consuming.”
Wen Xi stared at the items in the shopping software, from antibiotics to compressed biscuits, from down sleeping bags to portable stoves, everything was available.
But the problem was that she couldn’t handle orders for so many categories at the same time by herself.
Lunch boxes could be ordered and delivered in batches, but for medicines, warm gear, and the like, every order had to have its needs confirmed separately, priced separately, and traded separately.
Just thinking about these tasks gave her a headache!
The low-energy rat person was already beginning to feel tired…
“If only I could open a supermarket, controlled online, I could sell things in a centralized way. Others have a ‘breakup kitchen’, I have a ‘breakup supermarket’.”
Thinking too beautifully, Wen Xi shook her head and gave up:
“Forget it, biting off more than one can chew is bad.”
She closed the shopping page and switched to today’s sales statistics.
The sales volume wasn’t hard to calculate; after all, there was only one dinner today.
[Today’s Sales]:
Basic sets × 411 (330 yuan/set) = 135,630 yuan
Deluxe sets × 510 (460 yuan/set) = 234,600 yuan
Specially supplied stewed soup × 30 (200 yuan/portion) = 6,000 yuan
Extra fruit × 100 (100 yuan/portion) = 10,000 yuan
[Total Sales]: 386,230 yuan
And this was still a time-limited period, with the sales volume at the beginning when some people didn’t trust her and didn’t place orders!
