425 Be steady
(Thanks to friends 19860202 tips and monthly pass encouragement)
It is no exaggeration to say that the impact of these two cups of coffee on Alejandro today is a bit big. Because he's not just a coffee bean dealer, he's also a coffee lover.
He really didn't expect to be able to taste two cups of coffee with such a good taste in one day. Anyway, in his opinion, it's almost like a miracle.
The first cup of coffee is the taste you want to drink. The second cup of coffee, mixed with the aroma of wine, is charming but not intoxicating. In his career, he has never tasted such a unique coffee.
The little seedlings on the side, after drinking a small cup of coffee, the small appearance is also beautiful. The little one is not an insatiable person, and after drinking, he runs to the side and plays happily with the little animals.
For Xiao Miaomiao's way of playing, Alejandro couldn't help but take a few more looks. This family, or rather, this farm, feels really special.
Anyway, after coming over today, he refreshed a lot of his cognition, and it turns out that lions can be so well-behaved. If he weren't sober now, he would have mistakenly thought that he had come to the circus.
It can be regarded as the company's "big customer" at present, and Lao Liu gave Zhang Luo a lunch very carefully.
In addition to some special dishes, Lao Liu also prepared a bowl of lo noodles for him. He firmly believes that Italians love pasta, otherwise it would be called pasta.
"Mr. Simon, I'm curious, what kind of coffee trees are these coffee trees on your farm right now?" asked Alessandro curiously after taking a large bite of noodles.
"Actually, I don't know right now, I guess it's a variant. Lao Liu said with a smile.
"But no matter what the variety, as long as the coffee beans taste good, that's OK. In next year's Barista Competition, we will send our own barista to participate. ”
Alessandro nodded, "I've learned that UCC didn't participate in the last auction now, but it purchased a lot of coffee beans from you. ”
"Haha, it's because I have an agreement with UCC. Each auction will set aside a certain share for them, and their company will also use the highest price of the auction to buy. Liu Wenrui said.
"Morita Fukuyama has a lot of vision and made an agreement with me when we participated in the barista competition. Actually, I didn't expect my coffee beans to sell so well at that time. For our two companies, the cooperation is still very good. In fact, if it weren't for the low production of coffee beans now, I would have wanted to find an agent in every country. ”
"You don't know, the coffee berries I bought are not selected in a batch, and they will be roasted and tasted by myself. Later we will also recruit some coffee tasters to check the beans within our company. ”
Alessandro nodded, Liu Wenrui's idea is also very normal, and many coffee bean companies do the same. Whether the coffee beans are good or not still has to be brewed out to be determined, and it does not have a particularly big relationship with its shape and size.
Now he is very hesitant, I don't know if he should also buy more this time, so that he can maintain a good relationship with Liu Wenrui, and in the future, he will be able to occupy a fixed share of his coffee bean auction like UCC?
Although Fukuyama Morita has always felt that he was fooled by Liu Wenrui, otherwise he would not have been able to win those coffee beans at such a high price. But in the eyes of others, his single transaction is really worth it.
At present, you can only taste those coffee beans in UCC coffee shops. Or a very small number of private cafes will have some stock, but there will definitely not be a lot of it.
Because Liu Wenrui suppressed the auction of a season of coffee beans, how much spot can be on the market?
"Alessandro, let me tell you a little bit more about my coffee beans. Liu Wenrui continued.
"My coffee beans, I fry them in a pot and roast them in a roaster, there is a difference in taste, and the taste of my fried beans will be better. ”
"I think maybe that's the difference in the way the coffee beans are heated, which makes the beans taste a little different. In future auctions, I will give some convenience to my customers. That is, if a customer is for his own use, then he can store it with me first, and I can help him fry it at any time when needed. ”
"Mr. Simon, wouldn't that be a lot of work?" asked Alessandro curiously.
Liu Wenrui nodded, "It's really cumbersome, but I've seen some comments on the Internet." Some people use a home roaster to bake the beans and the taste of the beans is much worse. ”
"I don't have a lot of coffee beans here anyway, and there are very few real retail customers except for some big companies that buy them in the future. ”
Alessandro nodded, although there was no auction yet, he also knew that the number of individual customers depended entirely on Liu Wenrui's auction method.
Anyway, if he didn't control it, the beans would definitely flow to the coffee company. Don't look at the fact that these coffee beans have not been on the market for a long time, they can be regarded as coffee beans that can withstand the test.
Alessandro was also very happy after being entertained by Lao Liu. Of course, he thought it would be better if Lao Liu could give him or sell him some homegrown coffee beans.
It's just that Lao Liu was a little picky, and he didn't even mention it when he left.
"Why don't you fool him and ask him to buy more coffee beans. Wang Shasha asked curiously.
"Our coffee beans, do you still need to fool around like this?" said Lao Liu very stinky.
Wang Shasha glanced at him, "Then you really plan to increase the price of those coffee beans, will it be difficult to sell?"
"Don't worry, no matter what time it is, for drinks such as coffee and tea, as long as your products are good, you don't have to think too much about the price. Liu Wenrui said very confidently.
"What our company is missing now is only fame, not so much fame, so people don't know much about it. Anyway, if our coffee beans can withstand the test, then we won't be afraid. ”
"Hey...... , I just think that I am really short of money now, and I can't wait to exchange these coffee beans for money as soon as possible. Wang Shasha pouted and said.
"It's also the first time I've seen someone like you buying and selling things with a price increase. If you loosen your mouth, will he order a few more tons?"
"Hehe, I'm so willful, anyway, I think that the price for the market, that is at most a temporary pleasure, not a long-term solution. Lao Liu said with a smile.
"Just like those domestic car companies in China, eight-fold leopard, five-fold Kai, what do you mean by saying they play so much? Perennial discounts are either the product is not strong enough, or the price is too high. Then fool the newbie, as if you feel how cheap you are buying. In fact, many customers may regret it after buying, and when you make market adjustments, they will feel cheated. ”
"Anyway, we definitely don't want to play this sales routine of setting a false price and then discounting it. We get what we pay for, and if the coffee beans are good, we have to sell them at the price of good coffee beans. ”
Wang Shasha glanced at him, anyway, she was very firm that Lao Liu was Dese.
It's just that she hasn't done business before, and now it's the same situation anyway, so let's do it. It's useless to talk too much, it's already like this anyway.
She is not a particularly worrying person, that is, she talked about this matter today, so she will engage in this matter. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to move her brain, she would be too tired.
Then she ran upstairs and watched the baby lion play with Xiao Miaomiao. Maybe it's because I came to Lao Liu's room, the lioness doesn't mind others looking at her baby too much.
Lao Liu sat on the sofa, and he also had to think about his own deals.
In fact, he also thought about throwing out all these coffee beans in his hand as soon as possible, which is nothing more than a matter of earning more and earning less. Compared to the purchase price of coffee berries, it is all profitable.
But he has always felt that the current selling price is already a loss, and if he makes another profit, he will lose even more.
After all, these are not ordinary coffee beans, they are all coffee beans that he has worked hard to taste himself. When it was first acquired, that sin was no less.
After pondering for a while, he gave himself firm confidence. Even if it sells more slowly, it sells like this.
At this time, Brother Pingtou ran down from upstairs, jumped on the sofa with a slight jump of his fat body, and then threw his head on Lao Liu's lap.
"You, let's be wronged for a while. Now that Miao Miao has so many little babies, where is there so much time to care about you. Lao Liu touched Brother Pingtou's head and said.
Brother Pingtou is aggrieved, and he misses the time when he was favored by Miao Miao before.
"Besides, you don't look at how fat you are now. Miao Miao can't even hold it, why do I play with you?" said Lao Liu, holding the skin of the flat-headed brother.
The flat-headed guy glanced at him, then got up from the couch and lay directly on his lap.
Lao Liu's heart is so helpless, this is because he has raised crookedly, and he has lost the temperament of Brother Pingtou. Now I'm a spoiled person.,Occasionally, I'll compete with the small animals at home for a pet or something.。
The slow sales of coffee beans made him a little worried. However, these little animals at home can dilute this sorrow a lot.
Take your time, and don't be too anxious.
That is, the last time I auctioned coffee beans, I made myself feel that it was easy to make money, which brought me the illusion. No matter how good the coffee beans are, they still need a growth cycle, and they can't be so profitable every day.
My starting point is already higher than others, who else can have such a magical mask? As long as you come steadily, there is no problem.
