Chapter 108: Trying to Catch the Past
Hu Mingchen looked up and saw Boss Zhang, Boss Zhang's eyes swept away, and at the same time, he also saw Hu Mingchen who was staring at him.
Seeing Hu Mingchen, a pleasant smile suddenly appeared on Boss Zhang's face, which was very different from the scene he had met with Hu Mingchen before.
"Boss Zhang, what are you...... Do you want to go to relatives or take a walk?" When Boss Zhang walked to the intersection leading to Hu Mingchen's house, Hu Mingchen took two steps forward and asked indifferently.
What relatives can I have in this Huangni Village, take a walk? Huangni Village is all a sheep's intestine path, bumpy and uneven, and some places are full of thorns, who would be so idiotic that they can run here for a walk when they are full? Boss Zhang scolded in his heart.
"No, I'm just here to take a look at the local ginger planting, I'm doing this, didn't you say two days ago that you should prepare in advance and take precautions, I'm like this, hey, your home is here?"
"Xiao Chen, who is it?" Hearing Hu Mingchen greet and speak, Jiang Yucai wiped her wet hand and wiped her apron, walked over and asked.
"Oh, Mom, this is Boss Zhang, and the ginger from Boss Wang's house on the street is sold to him. Hu Mingchen explained.
"Oh, it's Boss Zhang, come and sit in the house, sit in the house, I'll make tea......" As soon as he heard that it was the boss who collected ginger, Jiang Yucai's face suddenly seemed to bloom like a flower, and he hurriedly said enthusiastically.
"Mom, Boss Zhang just took a casual look, and he came here to inspect the ginger planting. Hu Mingchen stood next to him and said.
"You kid, you're so ignorant, even if it's ...... Take a look and investigate, then passing by our house, you should also invite someone to sit down and have a cup of tea, Boss Zhang, don't care about this kid, the little doll is not sensible, please please, please ......" Jiang Yucai immediately lowered his face to criticize Hu Mingchen, and after criticizing Hu Mingchen for two games, he hurriedly greeted Boss Zhang with a smile.
Is Hu Mingchen really ignorant? Of course it can't be. The reason why Hu Mingchen wanted to squeeze Boss Zhang so painlessly was to take the initiative.
Boss Zhang said that he came to see and investigate, and the ghost believed it, why had he never been here before. Besides, the ginger cultivation in Duge Township has been almost unchanged in recent years, and since he often does business with people here, will he not understand this situation? Not to mention why he didn't go to other villages, but came to Huangni Village, if he didn't come to Hu Mingchen's house, Hu Mingchen didn't believe it.
Who knew that Hu Mingchen's strategy was washed away by the anxious Jiang Yucai's words, so that he could only smile at Boss Zhang in embarrassment.
Jiang Yucai himself is worried about how to sell the ginger at home, and now that the boss comes to the door, of course he must hold on tightly, if he doesn't get it right, his family's dried ginger will have a way to sell out. As for Hu Mingchen's fancy intestines, Jiang Yucai didn't want to think about it, and she couldn't think of it.
"In this case, then I will sit down, bother with a glass of water to drink, and walk on this mountain for a long time, and I am really a little thirsty. Boss Zhang said half-pushing, half-reserved.
"Jiang Yucai, a foreign boss who collects ginger has come to your house, and it seems that those dried gingers in your house are about to turn into money. Jiang Yucai led Boss Zhang and the driver he brought into the courtyard of Hu Mingchen's house, and Li Xiumei joked.
"Wash quickly, wash quickly, people are just here to sit and sit, by the way, you guys hurry up and do your ......" Jiang Yucai waved her hand casually at Song Chunmei and said ambiguously.
People didn't say that they came to his house to see the goods, and in front of Boss Zhang, Jiang Yucai could only say that.
"Xiao Chen, who's coming?" At this time, Hu Jianjun came out of the toilet, saw Jiang Yucai leading two strangers to his home, hurriedly took two steps forward and grabbed Hu Mingchen and asked in a low voice.
"The Boss Zhang I mentioned to you last time is the one who collected ginger at Wang Chengwu's house. ”
"Did you call it?" asked Hu Jianjun excitedly.
"What's my name, people came by themselves, and they said that they just came to walk around, and you should talk more leisurely for a while, and as soon as others say you'll sell them." Hu Mingchen saw Hu Jianjun's excitement and hurriedly reminded him.
"Yes, yes. ”
Hu Jianjun and Hu Mingchen entered the house, and Jiang Yucai was already looking for a cup to make tea for the guests.
"Boss Hu, you are really remote here, and the road is too difficult to walk, but I really didn't expect your family to invite so many people to work, and the field is really not small. "Boss Zhang, like everyone else, did not regard Hu Mingchen as the principal, and the Boss Hu he said did not refer to Hu Mingchen, but to Hu Jianjun.
"Hehe, no experience, petty fighting, petty fighting, come to smoke, smoke ......" said Hu Jianjun took out his inferior paper cigarette and took out two and handed it to Boss Zhang and his driver.
When Boss Zhang and his driver saw Hu Jianjun's cigarette, they didn't reach out to pick it up, and then Boss Zhang took out his Hongta Mountain and handed one to Hu Jianjun: "Smoke mine, smoke mine." ”
Hu Jianjun also knew that his cigarettes were a little out of his hands, and the Hongta Mountain of the poor family was so big, he took back his cigarettes in embarrassment, rubbed his hands, and then took Boss Zhang's cigarettes with a shy smile.
Hu Mingchen sat on the sidelines and watched coldly, Boss Zhang's actions made him uncomfortable, and at the same time, it also gave Boss Zhang a comment that "it can't be a big deal".
Before his rebirth, Hu Mingchen had not seen the big boss, at that time, some of the big bosses who contracted the project inspected the construction site, and when they met them, they would not only take the initiative to load cigarettes, but even take out some not very good cigarettes for the workers below them, and some bosses would not only follow, but also immediately light and smoke in front of them.
Although this is only a small thing, it can be seen with a leopard to see a person's heart, bearing and wrist.
Boss Zhang took the initiative to come to the house, but he didn't even accept Hu Jianjun's cigarettes, and Hu Mingchen's willingness to treat him as a partner would not be high.
After they took two puffs of cigarettes, Jiang Yucai also made the tea and politely brought it to Boss Zhang and his driver.
"Boss Zhang, you are really serious about doing business, someone has helped to receive the goods, you have to go down to the field to investigate in person, do your best, I don't know if in addition to Huangni Village, you still plan to go to those villages to see, I am more familiar, I can show you the way." Hu Mingchen's words were polite, sounding like good intentions, but for Boss Zhang, it was a run.
His purpose is not at all as Hu Mingchen said, and it is impossible for him to really go to the villages.
To put it mildly, Boss Zhang doesn't care how ginger is grown, nor does he care about the environment in which it grows. He only needs to see how the quality of the ginger is, and then give a price that he thinks is appropriate, and nothing else is within the scope of his heart at all.
This time I came to Huangni Village, Boss Zhang's purpose was very clear, that is, to come to Hu Mingchen's house.
Didn't Boss Zhang disdain it before, why was he willing to trek through mountains and rivers to Hu Mingchen's house on today's National Day?
The reason for this is not related to the market.
Recently, the terminal market has become more and more tight, and the product is in short supply, not only ginger is easy to sell, but also the price of dried ginger is almost the same every day.
Wang Chengwu's supply was a little unable to meet Boss Zhang's needs, no, he just wanted to come to Huangni Village to see if he could eat the dried ginger of Hu Mingchen's family.
Hu Mingchen's family has never done this business, and they may be able to get an unexpected price.
"Thanks, let's just find a random spot to see. Besides, I don't have time to go around, and when it gets dark, Boss Wang will load the ginger into the car, and I have to go back overnight. Boss Zhang spit out a puff of green smoke and crossed Erlang's legs.
"Boss Zhang, do you only accept ginger, don't you want dried ginger?" Hearing that people were going back overnight, for fear of missing this rare opportunity, Jiang Yucai couldn't wait to ask.
"Haha, I'm mainly in the ginger business, what is this ginger, I rarely do it, but ...... If I find the right source of goods and the right price, I will also make some. Boss Zhang put on a lofty posture, wanting to be indulgent and reserved.
"Oh, in this case, you can look at my dried ginger, my dried ginger is roasted from the best ginger, big, clean, roasted, if you can, you can collect my dried ginger." Jiang Yucai's willingness to take the initiative was really strong, and she didn't even notice Hu Mingchen's glances at her.
Doing business is like this, the more active, the more eager, the more passive it will be in terms of price.
"Mom, Boss Zhang is not here to collect ginger today, look at you, you are like this, people will be very embarrassed. Hu Mingchen interjected.
"What's so embarrassing about this, just by the way, Boss Zhang, right?" Jiang Yucai made a straight face to Hu Mingchen, but to Boss Zhang, it was as warm as spring.
"Yes, yes, yes, then I'll see, if it's good, I can take it back by the way. With that, Boss Zhang stood up.
Jiang Yucai and Hu Jianjun hurriedly took Boss Zhang to the hall where the dried ginger was stored, and opened a bag of dried ginger to show him.
Looking at these dried gingers, Boss Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up, he had collected ginger so many times in Duge Township, and he had really never seen such a beautiful ginger. Grab a few pieces and look at it, the size, color and dryness of the wetness really satisfied him.
"Boss Zhang, look, my ginger is okay? It's clean, yellow, orange, orange, pinch it casually, there is no piece that is not dry, and there will be no piece of paste." Jiang Yucai enthusiastically introduced and praised on the side.
"Well, it's okay, it's not too bad. "Obviously I am very satisfied, but in order to lower the price, Boss Zhang has to make this product very reluctantly.
"Boss Zhang's requirements are really high, but it's just okay? The dried ginger my family collects is at least 15 percent more expensive than other families, and those people on the street collect what my family doesn't want. Hu Mingchen was unconvinced.
