Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Deal Reached

As he spoke, Li Ming drove the car to the door of the hotel.

Shao Jia said to Li Ming while unbuckling her seat belt: "I'll go to the manager first, you wait for me for a while." ”

"You're busy, I'll wait for you in the hall with a bag of truffles first." Li Ming pointed to the trunk and said.

Shao Jia nodded, got out of the car and happily ran into the door of the hotel, and went to the general manager to report the good news.

Li Ming got out of the car slowly, took out a bag of white truffles from the back compartment, and walked into the hall.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard an angry roar coming from the front desk.

"Shao Jia, do you want to do it or not, what's going on with the truffle dealer, why did he say that if you don't apologize to him in person, our hotel won't want to get a gram of white truffle, do you know how important truffles are to us."

"Leader, listen to me."

"I don't want to explain, I just want truffles."

"He's going to bully me."

"What about truffles, Miss, if there are no truffles in a big hotel like ours, who will come to high-end guests."

Li Ming knew that this would be the result, so he walked to the front desk with a truffle and came to Shao Jia's side.

Looking at Shao Jia, whose eyes were red, Li Ming stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her shoulders and said to the angry general manager: "You don't need to buy it from him, I can provide you with truffles." ”

When the general manager who was angry heard this, he found a stranger coming, and angrily pointed at Li Ming and said to Shao Jia: "Who is he?" ”

Shao Jia hurriedly introduced: "My classmate, he helped me find a new truffle dealer, we don't need to go to Big Yellow Tooth to buy truffles." ”

The two thought that the general manager would be very happy to hear Shao Jia's words, but looking at the general manager's expression, not only was they not happy, but their faces were even more gloomy, and they looked disappointed.

Shao Jia asked inexplicably, "General manager, what's wrong with you?" ”

The general manager said to Shao Jia with an angry expression: "Jiajia, why don't you understand, what I want is white truffles originating in Europe, only one of them is sold in Tiannan Province, and the other dealers sell domestic truffles, I don't want that thing." ”

Hearing the general manager's words, Shao Jia was suddenly shocked, Shao Jia was happy to see so many white truffles last night, and forgot to ask Li Ming where the truffles were produced, thinking that if these truffles were domestic, then there would be no value.

There is a clear difference in the taste of the two kinds of truffles, and those who can eat truffles are all rich people, and if they want to eat the top white truffles native to Europe, how can they spend a lot of money to eat domestic truffles.

Turning his head to look at Li Ming, Shao Jia couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Li Ming, is this truffle domestic?" ”

Li Ming's purpose for spending 400,000 yuan to buy that top-grade Alba truffle was here.

Giving Shao Jia a reassuring look, Li Ming smiled and brought the bag over, took out a truffle at random and put it in front of the general manager and said, "I believe you often eat truffles, you see where my truffles are made." ”

Truffles are rarely cooked, most of the dishes are mainly eaten raw, and the general manager who is greedy for appetite usually loves to eat truffles, and when he heard Li Ming's words, he took the truffles with a suspicious face, looked at the appearance, and then put them on the side of his nose and smelled them.

The fragrant aroma came to his nose, and the general manager's eyes immediately widened in surprise, and he said in disbelief: "Oh my God, this is, this is, the best white truffle native to the small town of Alba, Italy." ”

After speaking, the general manager sniffed it repeatedly, still a little unconvinced, his arm trembled a little and picked up the walkie-talkie on his waist, and shouted excitedly: "Chef Amor, come out quickly." ”

"What's the matter, boss." A humorous voice came from the other end of the line.

"There's a new batch of top-quality white truffles in the store, I'm a little unsure, come and help me identify them." The general manager said anxiously.

White truffles are to European chefs what the top chefs in China are to hear fresh bear's paws and monkey brains.

As soon as the general manager's words fell, a blond-haired European fat man walked out of the kitchen quickly, and said excitedly as he walked: "Oh, boss, you finally bought a white truffle, let me see what level it is." ”

Shao Jia stood beside Li Ming and said, "This is the executive chef of our hotel, Mr. Almo. ”

As a top chef, Amor has an extremely sensitive sense of smell for ingredients, especially the top white truffles in Europe, which makes Amor smell a sense of enjoyment.

As soon as he walked to the general manager's side, Amor was attracted by the truffle in the general manager's hand, looking at the shape of the truffle, Amor said excitedly: "This, this is ......"

The general manager hurriedly asked, "What is this?" ”

Amor waved his hand to signal everyone not to speak, then carefully took the truffle from the general manager's hand, then put it to his nose and inhaled it vigorously.

Amor's actions not only made the general manager and Shao Jia nervous, but even Li Ming was attracted by Amor's actions.

Li Ming also wanted to know what was the difference between the truffles he made with spiritual liquid and the real truffles.

I saw Chef Almo sniff the truffle intoxicated, and then show an intoxicated expression on his face, and then sigh and say, "Verygood! ”

The general manager was anxious to know the answer, and when he heard the chef's words, the general manager's nose was almost crooked, and he grabbed the chef's hand and said anxiously: "Is it true, you give me an accurate word." ”

The chef looked at the general manager with excited eyes and said, "Dear boss, I guarantee in the name of God, this is actually the top Italian Alba white truffle, oh my God, boss, where did you find it." ”

Hearing Almo's words, the general manager could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart, and grabbed Li Ming's arm with both hands and said, "Boss, you make a price, I want all the truffles in your hand." ”

Looking at the general manager who had already bent down and bowed, with a respectful face, Li Ming smiled on his face, looked at Shao Jia and said, "You tell your general manager." ”

Shao Jia glanced at Li Ming with a smile, nodded, and then said proudly to the general manager: "Boss, such truffles, Li Ming still has nine bags in the trunk of my classmate." ”

"What, and nine bags?" The general manager has already shouted excitedly.

Li Ming said with a smile: "Yes, you first ask people to take out all the truffles, and then identify them one by one, and after the appraisal is completed, let's talk about the price." ”

"Okay, okay, Boss Li, wait a minute, wait a minute, I'll call someone, don't worry, don't worry." The general manager is already a little incoherent.

Whether it's as a food lover or as the general manager of a high-end hotel, so much truffle is enough to make people lose their bearings.

Picking up the walkie-talkie in his hand, the general manager yelled excitedly: "Chefs, come out quickly." ”

The cooks who were working didn't know what was going on, and when they heard the general manager's roar, they thought they were going to fight, but a group of people rushed out of the backstage with kitchen knives and said to the general manager: "Boss, what's wrong, is there going to be a fight?" ”

"Beat you up, go out with me to carry things, there are a large number of excellent white truffles, you can follow me to have a look." The general manager said excitedly.

Li Ming was speechless, he didn't expect that this general manager was still very popular.

Laughing out of the hotel, he opened his back compartment and asked the general manager and others to unload the truffles, and then they all fell to the ground and were inspected by the general manager and Chef Almo.

Nearly 300 truffles, and the two of them checked them all in one breath for more than an hour.

Putting down the last piece of truffle, the general manager said to Amor with an excited face: "How is your truffle?" ”

Amor had already fallen into a frenzy and said to the general manager: "Oh boss, I don't want to live anymore, these truffles are all top-notch Alba white truffles, oh my God, how is this possible, how are you there." ”

Hearing this, the general manager clenched his fist hard and said to Amor: "I also have top-quality Alba white truffles here. ”

The general manager and the chef of Alba are already completely messy, and the annual production of white truffles in the Alba region of Italy is less than 1,000 kilograms.

Generally, just after the harvest, it was bought by major hotels in Europe, and domestic hotels could not buy it at all, and at this time, in front of them, there were more than 50 kilograms of Alba white truffles, which made the general manager no longer know what to say.

Turning his head to look at Li Ming, the general manager hurriedly ran over and took Li Ming's hand and said, "Boss, I want all these truffles, you offer a price." ”

After Chef Amor confirmed that the truffle in the general manager's hand was a real truffle, Li Ming no longer worried about the fact that other truffles were fake, and had been standing aside leisurely, watching the general manager and Amor inspect.

Hearing the general manager's words, Li Ming just smiled, stretched out his hand to hold Shao Jia beside him in his arms, and said to the general manager: "I am not a person who does this business, the reason why I asked a friend to transport truffles from Europe is just to help my classmates, you can open it at the price, I don't make money, don't let my European friend suffer." ”

Hearing this, the general manager was already excited and didn't know what to say, and he couldn't imagine that the beautiful manager with strong work ability under his command and such a capable classmate actually bought truffles directly from Europe for emergency relief.

The general manager said to Li Ming excitedly: "Then let's go according to the market price, 12,000 yuan per kilogram." ”

Li Ming didn't know the market price of truffles at all, Wen Yan looked at Shao Jia, and after seeing Shao Jia nodding, Li Ming said, "Okay, just come at this price." ”

Li Ming calculated that one kilogram was 10,002, and he brought 50 kilograms of truffles over, which was equivalent to earning 600,000 yuan directly.

I didn't expect that selling truffles was quite profitable, Li Ming thought with a smile in his heart.
