161 Crane the Terrible
"Crane, I'm curious, is it worth it for your company to give such a high price just for my small farm?"
Liu Wenrui's heart is really excited and curious, and it can be said that this transaction is currently the best transaction he has encountered in his life.
Crane thought for a moment and nodded, "It's worth it, it's worth it." Actually, if it weren't for the sake of scaring you, I would have wanted to give more money. β
This remark really startled Lao Liu, how is this a business? I haven't experienced it.
"Mr. Liu, it can be said that the current price is completely paying for Franklin's recklessness. Crane said with a wry smile.
"Because his recklessness not only makes you unhappy, but also blocks our trading channels. And it is also because of his recklessness that the Kenyan authorities have a very bad opinion of our company, and the development and promotion of our company will definitely attract more attention in the future. β
"I have lived in China for three years and have been to many places in China. Although I don't have a thorough understanding of Chinese culture, I think many ways of doing things for Chinese people are still worth recommending. β
"Chinese people believe in the golden mean, I don't think it's like having no quarrel with the world and giving in to everything. On the contrary, I think it's a clenched fist, and you don't know what's in it, and you don't know how powerful it will be when it's swung. β
"There are now many Chinese people doing business in various African countries, seven to eight times as many as in the previous five years. While many people want to escape poverty in Africa, the Chinese are able to see the business opportunities in this land. I don't think there's any country where people should be looked down upon, especially if they're your trade partner. β
"Now that I'm in charge of the company, I'm going to tell everybody through our deal that my business philosophy is different from Franklin's. β
Liu Wenrui nodded, but he also understood Crane's intentions. At the beginning, I also used similar methods, and came to "buy horse bones", but this time it was used by Crane on his body.
"Crane, you're being very sincere. But I'm still curious, if I don't agree to your conditions, what kind of means will your company use against me?" asked Liu Wenrui, looking at Crane.
Crane's face was very calm, and there was no fluctuation in the slightest, "Mr. Liu, there is a deal between us, which may succeed or fail." Especially with Franklin, the uncertainty is even higher. β
"If you are still not satisfied with the current trading conditions, I will also offer you new conditions to the limit of what our company can bear. It's just that these new conditions seem to be very good, but they are only short-term benefits, and they are not suitable for long-term development. β
"If you are not satisfied with all the conditions and still refuse to sell, then our company will also come up with corresponding means. Although our company has not been established for a long time, we have close ties with many coffee bean buyers. β
"We can't control the price of the coffee bean market as a whole, but we can also influence the price of a small area or region. β
"In other words, if you grow coffee trees on a farm in Kenya or anywhere else in the world, it's really hard to sell your beans at a price that you're comfortable with. β
"I think you should also understand that our company has no choice but to do this, this is a consideration from the perspective of the company's interests, otherwise it will be very difficult to promote the company's business in the future. β
Liu Wenrui nodded, and Crane's words were very practical and easy to understand.
To put it bluntly, Crane's business strategy is to hold a carrot in one hand and a big stick in the other. You've got acquainted, enough carrots. You don't know each other, the big stick is enough.
Although his methods may not be as direct and brutal as Franklin, in Liu Wenrui's opinion, this Crane is much more powerful and terrifying than Franklin.
When Franklin says this, it's a threat. But when Crane says it, he is stating the facts. There is an essential difference between this, and when I hear Liu Wenrui's ears, I feel different.
Franklin's words, he can be regarded as a deaf ear, and he is still very disgusted. Crane's words, he has to listen carefully and measure carefully.
In fact, now in his heart, a villain jumped out, crying and shouting and begging him to quickly agree to Crane's conditions. In the future, it will almost be a life of lying down and winning, and it may not be able to be rich and expensive, but a serious well-off life is still no problem.
But another villain also jumped out and told himself in righteous words that he couldn't sell the farm. Not because of the economic value, but because of what the little tree does here.
He knew that this was all his own imagination, but he was really thinking about the gains and losses in both aspects.
Theoretically, changing places is a good choice and the right choice. But if you jump out and look at it, you have to put a question mark on this matter.
Because he didn't know if Xiaoshu would be able to show such a magical ability after he moved out by himself. If you can't show it, the mask trio will be missing a link.
And after this treatment of the lion cub, there is also a mutual influence between the three mask sets. What if the little tree affects the girl who is holding her little feet in her arms and playing?
No one can give themselves an accurate answer, which is equivalent to a small bet. If you win the bet, everyone is happy. If you lose the bet, the gains outweigh the losses.
"Crane, the conditions you gave were too tempting. I can't promise you yet, how about I think about it for a few days?"
After thinking for a while, Liu Wenrui said.
Crane gave him a serious look, then took out a business card from his arms, "Mr. Liu, whether our deal can be concluded or not, I hope you can contact me." β
"Personally, I'd love to be friends with you. You are the one who is said to be favored by the gods, and it would be a wonderful thing to be friends with such a person. β
"I don't bother you to rest, and I'm sorry again for what Franklin did. I hope you forget about him, he doesn't deserve to be remembered by you. β
Liu Wenrui stood up and took the business card seriously, "Crane, thank you for the respect you gave me." β
Crane nodded politely, and beckoned to the little Miao Miao in Lao Liu's arms, which was regarded as greeting the little guy, and then left here.
"Simon, this person makes me feel terrible. β
After Crane left, Kipcorey approached Liu Wenrui.
"Why do you say that?" Lao Liu said as he picked up the little shoes that his daughter had played with and put them on for her.
"I don't know why, but I feel like this person is very powerful and terrifying. Especially his smile and eyes, as if I was walking on the prairie and was being targeted by a pack of hyenas. Kipkrey thought for a moment and said.
Liu Wenrui nodded, "Actually, I feel the same way." A bluffer like Franklin is easy to deal with, but this Crane is very difficult to deal with. β
Kipcorey grinned, as if he was very happy to be recognized by Liu Wenrui and have the same insight as him.
"Mr. Simon, will you sell this farm?"
Rudy also leaned over and asked curiously.
Liu Wenrui smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's hard for me to be sure now, because the conditions he gave are too good." I do have to think about it, I don't even know the answer. β
Kipcorey and Rudy didn't speak, indeed, the conditions given by this Crane are really good.
The two of them also heard their conversation when they were moving the beef just now, and there was no need to deliberately hide it, and Liu Wenrui and Crane did not whisper.
Anyway, in the eyes of these two people, if they were replaced, they would definitely agree. $800,000, that's a lot of money. In their cognition, this is already astronomical.
Lao Liu, who had a headache, put his daughter on the ground, and then distributed the beef to the lions to eat.
It's really a headache, because if you don't agree, I'm afraid it's really hard to buy and sell your own coffee beans.
In the last harvest, I had already lost money. If the operation is not good in the next picking season, then you will have to pay for it. This is the problem I am about to face, and it is a problem that I cannot deal with at the moment.
Although the coffee berries are now fatter and the beans inside are bigger, in terms of individual weight and appearance, it is very good. But what it tastes like, you can only taste it when it is ripe.
The taste can be better, maybe even if someone presses the price, they can sell it almost the same, at least they can make some money. If the taste is very ordinary, if you still want to make money, you will almost have to buy and sell fried food.
This Crane was really terrifying, and his simple words made him feel a trace of fear.
The carefree lions are happily eating beef. Among their lion creatures, they have never enjoyed such treatment. Even if there is a lot of food on the grassland, you need to catch it yourself.
Xiao Miaomiao is also carefree, jumping back and forth among the lions, looking at this and touching that, and occasionally clicking her mouth. This is to see that the lions eat too well, and she is a little greedy.
Lao Liu glanced at the small tree in the yard again, and it was the same as yesterday, still listless. Even though the little seedling has recovered and become the usual happy little baby, this little tree has not improved at all.
made Lao Liu very bored, and the balance in his heart slipped a little to the side of not selling.
With the way Xiaoshu is now, he really doesn't know if he can withstand the transplant. This time, in order to save the lion cub, the biggest contribution should be this little tree.
