NovelGoldChapter 1222:
When Milford brought this up, the owner perked up with interest. Waving Milford over while tapping off his
cigarette ash, he said, “Chere.”
Approaching, Milford saw the owner pull out a cigarette. Milford quickly said, “I don’t smoke.” After a pause, he
continued, “Have you considered switching to disposable tableware? Your restaurant exudes luxury, yet the
expense of your current tableware seems excessive to many customers. By switching to disposables, you could
avoid charging the customers for the tableware and cut costs significantly while maintaining sanitary standards.”
Milford had gathered significant insights during a two-hour observation on a previous visit, noting that wealthier
customers often quibbled over minor costs, despite the high prices of their meals. They were unhappy about the
cost of using the tableware in the restaurant.
However, the price of disinfecting the tableware was high, and the restaurant owner wanted to make money. So,
he refused to lower the price for the customers to use the tableware. Customers had complained about this
several times.
“Do you think anyone would chere if | used cheap plastic tableware?” the owner challenged, dismissing the
idea with a roll of his eyes. “I thought you actually had a viable idea. It turns out that’s not the case.”
He put the cigarette back in his pocket, unimpressed by the proposal.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMilford pulled out his phone and showed the owner several photos. “The tableware isn’t cheap at all. Take a look
here.”
Previously, Milford had helped build the factory, which had started producing tableware. He was particularly
impressed by one specific type—edible disposable tableware made from buckwheat shell, designed to be
durable. People could use it to hold food and soup.
“This type of tableware is eco-friendly, disposable, and aesthetically pleasing,” Milford explained, observing the
restaurant owner's reactions closely.
The owner, convinced yet still feigning reluctance, said, “So, you're selling something to me? It's rare to see
door-to-door salesmen these days. What good things can you sell by doing this?”
“You'll see the value if you try it,” Milford responded confidently. Then, shifting gears, he put away his phone and
introduced himself properly. “Hello, my nis Milford Murray. I'm the accountant for the Navarro Group, and
I'm here to discuss a balance payment.”
It took a moment for the owner to connect the dots. “You're here to collect a debt? Then why did you say those
things to me?”
Milford was prepared. “Your company has owed the Navarro Group money for quite stime. | can offer you
this tableware at 80% of the standard price if you settle the balance. It's a deal that will save you money and
enhance your restaurant’s popularity.”
Milford persisted in his pitch, trying to persuade the owner.
The owner laughed, giving Milford a friendly slap on the shoulder. “You've got a knack for this, but no need for
subtleties. | know where to find the factory on my own.”
