Of course, adapting to local preferences, the delicious dishes of "Youwei" must be adjusted to suit the tastes of the local people wherever they go.
However, whether itâs tweaking flavors or expanding production, not to mention promoting the "Youwei" brand... these were all things that Xia Chuyi had in mind for their next steps.
At this moment, Xia Chuyi needed to work with Meng Xingmang to get the third "Youwei" franchise in Capital City up and running.
Since they had previous experience opening restaurants, the two of them quickly reached an agreement on this matter.
They finished discussing the Capital City franchise.
As they talked, the conversation turned toward broader promotion.
Soon after, Xia Chuyi shared some of her thoughts with Meng Xingmang.
Upon hearing them, Meng Xingmang said, "Thatâs right, people from different places have different tastes, and we do need to make adjustments accordingly."
"But, based on our current range of flavors, I feel they are quite popular with the masses."
Xia Chuyi smiled and said, "Thatâs because when I was developing the flavors, I initially chose a mix that was fairly comprehensive."
And indeed, in terms of flavors, they were categorized into several levels.
There were strong flavors and mild flavors; in summary, they could cater to a wide range of preferences.
Following that, the two discussed "Youwei" for a long time, growing more excited as they spoke, as if "Youwei" could sweep across the nation at any moment.
One step at a time, one bite at a time, one task at a time.
Since they had the funds, Meng Xingmang and Xia Chuyi began to truly move forward with preparing the third "Youwei" location in Capital City.
During this preparation process, Xia Chuyiâs end-of-term grades came in.
Generally, if students had gone home, the grades would be mailed to their family residence.
Those who hadnât gone home and were still registered as living in the dormsâthese individuals needed to check their grades at the institution themselves.
Although Xia Chuyi wasnât staying in the dorms, she had informed the institution early on that she would be staying in Capital City, so she also needed to check her grades herself.
A day after the grades were released, Xia Chuyi went to visit Professor Bao and Mrs. Gu, and to check her grades as well.
"Chuyi!" A friend from Dorm 201 who had stayed in the dorms saw Xia Chuyi and was especially excited, saying, "Chuyi, did you know? Itâs unbelievable; you missed so much time in the middle of the term, yet you did so well on the final exams!"
"With these grades, youâll surely get a scholarship next term!"
Her friends expressed their envy and jealousy.
Hearing this, Xia Chuyi slightly smiled and said, "Really? I havenât seen it yet; let me go check."
After saying that, she headed to the counselorâs office.
Seeing the grades, Xia Chuyi nodded to herself internally.
The outcome of the exam was close to her expectations.
Xia Chuyi thought: With these grades, she could ask Professor Bao for help with taking advanced credits next term.
Once she completed the required credits and passed the exams for her language specialty, she would be able to graduate early.
After checking her grades, Xia Chuyi was about to meet up with her friends from Dorm 201 when she ran into Zhan Yi, who had also not gone home.
Zhan Yi had just arrived and saw Xia Chuyi deep in thought; assuming she hadnât done well, he approached her and said, "Classmate Chuyi, did it not go well?"
"Donât be discouraged. Itâs normal not to do well since you were held back for so long in the middle of the term!" Zhan Yi said, in a spirited manner, trying to link arms with Xia Chuyi.
