"I'm sure Michael will give a perfect report. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Lu Li also made a joke.

In fact, he was also a little curious, what kind of result would be obtained after the kale was sent for all-round testing, prompting Whole Foods to propose a purchase price of six dollars and thirty-one cents? What will be the result of the power of space spring water when converted into scientific data?

The good news is that he hasn't been caught by the FBI for slicing and researching yet, and there are no suspicious agents around the ranch, which shows that the advantages that the space spring gives to kale are not outrageous for the time being. This means that he has been working tirelessly over the past year to dilute the spring water to irrigate the pasture land, and this strategy has been correct.

"I'm sure Whole Foods needs a report like that as well." Lu Li continued to follow the topic, "Yunding Ranch welcomes you to come over at any time to complete all the testing work. At that time, you are also welcome to come back to the ranch and we can talk face-to-face. ”

Lu Li felt that his teeth were sour, and the twenty-five million transaction was in his mouth, but he didn't bite down, but instead politely sent out an invitation and continued to walk normally and smoothly; It had consumed almost all of his willpower, and he felt that he had begun to regret it. But, gritting his teeth, he still needs to force himself to calm down-

He needs to do market research, not just the price of kale on the East and West Coasts, but also the state of sales, out-of-stock and demand; In addition, there is the situation of the competitors, and only by fully understanding these situations can he understand the location of Cloud Top Ranch, which can see whether the price of Whole Foods is reasonable and appropriate.

Lu Li had planned to do this after the New Year, and he needed to travel to the east and west coasts in person to complete all the market research between the different cities. But the Christmas blizzard, which disrupted all plans, changed the situation with the early attack of Whole Foods and the unexpected appearance of two competing supermarkets.

Lu Li can nod and agree to the agreement of Whole Foods now, but he can also calm down, take a half step back, and conduct market research step by step according to the original plan, and then make a decision. Keep calm and pause, this is to be able to occupy a better position in the future, to retreat as advance, and refuse to be impatient.

This was an unexpected answer - Lu Li did not nod directly in agreement, but after thinking about it carefully, Graham was not surprised at all.

From the last conversation, it can be seen that Lu Li is definitely not the kind of young man who is fledgling and impulsive. After returning, Graham did a little research, noticed Lu Li's cooperation with the "New York Times", and the craftsman series that attracted a lot of attention, and he was deeply impressed by the wisdom and sophistication between the words.

On the other hand, this is actually a good thing. Under Lu Li's management, Yunding Ranch has created a trustworthy kale, and Lu Li's character and wisdom are enough to make Whole Foods Supermarket have more confidence, which is undoubtedly the icing on the cake for cooperation.

What's more, before the formal test, everything is just at the negotiation stage.

Smiling, Graham nodded in affirmation, "Of course, we'll find another visit as soon as possible." This time, I'm looking forward to staying at the ranch for a few more days, and if I'm not mistaken, the ranch's resort is about to officially open, right? ”

Although no direct agreement could be reached, Graham knew that Whole Foods was now in an advantageous position, and they had shown enough sincerity and strength to end it for today, and he believed that the other two competitors would have to weigh it up. Next, Graham made the most of his strengths: friendship. This is something that other competitors don't have.

"Yes." Lu Li was a little surprised that Graham actually remembered these details. But in retrospect, it's not unusual, and you can feel that Whole Foods is a must-have this time.

Lu Li and Graham chatted for a while, and the two of them talked happily before hanging up the phone. In addition to Randy and Cole in the hall, Tony also walked in, the three of them all looked at Lu Li with a face full of anticipation, their eyes flickered, the strange eyes made Lu Li feel speechless for a while, he deliberately crossed his hands to protect his chest, and one action made all three of them roll their eyes in unison, Lu Li laughed hehehe, put down his hands, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Seeing Lu Li's puzzled question mark face, as if he didn't know anything, Randy finally couldn't hold back anymore and screamed directly, even though he clenched his fists tightly, he still couldn't suppress it, but he still shouted out his voice, "God, fourteen, are you serious?" ”

He even asked "why"? Randy felt like he was so nervous that he was starting to pee, and he was still so calm, so dazed, so sincere to ask "why", this damn guy!

Tony's gaze quickly scanned back and forth between Lu Li and Randy, "Fourteen, what the hell is going on?" Randy was screaming all the time, as if he had seen Justin Bieber's teenage girl. Can you tell me what's going on? Cole, who was standing next to him, also nodded repeatedly, obviously not understanding what was happening.

Lu Li pursed the corners of his lips and shrugged his shoulders, "Graham from Whole Foods Supermarket called and asked about cooperation. In recent days, the East Coast has been hit by a snowstorm and is now facing a kale crisis, so they are very anxious. ”

"And then?" This time, Cole and Tony's expressions tensed, and they finally understood what Randy's excitement was about.

"They made an offer that was hard to refuse, six dollars." Lu Li didn't sell it, and said neatly, and then Cole and Tony exchanged glances, as if asking each other: Six dollars, what does this mean?

Lu Li didn't bother with the numbers after the decimal point, firstly, the agreement has not yet been negotiated, and the specific numbers are uncertain; Second, even if all the specific numbers are said, the real meaning is still in the tens of digits, and it is enough to have a general concept.

Randy stood in place but began to calculate quickly, but dealing with numbers, it was really not his forte, he turned around eagerly, and Cole and Tony chattered and calculated, the three of them scratched their ears and grasped their hands in a hurry, but they could not calculate an accurate number, they could only become more and more anxious, and they were almost about to start jumping, and then they heard Lu Li's voice coming from behind, "It still depends on the production, I don't know how much impact the Blizzard has this time, but, it is estimated that this is a transaction of about 20 million." ”

"Drink." The three of them gasped at the same time, looking at Lu Li in disbelief, they all turned into fossils for a while, and stood there stunned, their movements remained the same, not knowing how to react, only their eyes were rolling and constantly exchanging glances, and then thinking about what this number meant.

Twenty million, for most people, is a number they will never see in their lifetime; This is especially true for Cloud Peak Ranch.

The scale of Yunding Ranch is really not large, even in Texas, it can only be regarded as small and medium-sized ranches, not to mention those large ranches in other states, as well as those vast ranches in Australia and New Zealand, although Lu Li has not obtained the operating accounts of Liz, what kind of level of income and expenditure of Beech Ranch was before, it is unknown, but from Liz's business situation, it can be glimpsed that the income and expenditure of Beech Ranch should be calculated in millions a year, and it is likely to be less than one million.

Now, 20 million is a full amount of 20 million. Just throwing that series of zeros out is enough to crush someone.

What's even more incredible is that that's just the output of an organic farm for one season – even after deducting the additional effects of this blizzard, that's a lot at half the price. So, what about vineyards outside of organic farms? What about the horse farm? And what about the Leyland sheep and Angus cattle that are ready to expand? And what about the resorts that are about to officially open?

Randy was completely stunned, and both Cole and Tony had unimaginable gleam in the depths of their eyes, and they wanted to scream with excitement.

However, before the roar could be released, Lu Li's voice came from his ears again, "But I didn't agree." The three of them were just stupid, blinked, choked in their throats, and almost fainted, and the first thought was: Did they hear it wrong? And then: Lu Li is kidding, right? Again: Did anyone just speak?

The three of them turned their heads to look at Lu Li in unison, and their hot eyes could almost release laser rays, but Lu Li was still complacent, and said unhurriedly, "Because Whole Foods is not the only competitor." ”

"......" Cole opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and his brain suddenly went blank.

"......" Randy also opened his mouth and uttered meaningless syllables, but he couldn't form words, even he didn't know what he was talking about, blinked his eyes, and still couldn't react.

In the end, it was Tony who coughed twice, breaking the frozen atmosphere, and at the same time bringing himself back to his senses, swallowing a mouthful of saliva and moistening his throat, "Are there other contenders?" But what competitors can compare to Whole Foods? It's the best organic supermarket in the U.S., and no one can compete with it. ”

Randy nodded stupidly, then pointed at Tony, signaling "He's right", and the stunned look was really funny.

The corners of Lu Li's mouth couldn't help but rise, "There is no North American scope, it doesn't mean that there is no regional scope." It's like in Texas, there is still no way to compare the market share of Whole Foods to H-E-B. But then Lu Li added, "I know that H-E-B is not an organic supermarket. I mean, on the East Coast, there aren't many supermarkets that can compete with Whole Foods, but there are no few. For example, there is a fresh supermarket, and there is also a Wigmans food supermarket. ”
