Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Effect of Advertising
Li Lei's judgment was completely correct. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The purchase agreement was signed, and for the next few days, there were special buses between Lingnan City and Dawang Village every day.
Fresh chili peppers are picked and shipped to the branches.
And so, just five days later, someone came to the door again. Judging by the person's dress, it is obvious that he is also the owner of a certain company.
"The owner of this farm is not there?"
Li Lei was about to inspect the farm when he was immediately blocked at the door.
"I'm just, something?"
Li Lei looked at the man, in his thirties, in a suit and leather shoes, his hair was meticulously combed, and he even smelled of perfume.
"Hello, contemptible Zheng Li."
Zheng Li took out his golden business card and handed it to Li Lei with both hands, "The contemptible person is the owner of Weibai Restaurant in Lingnan City." ”
"It turned out to be Mr. Zheng, hello."
Li Lei glanced at the business card, his heart moved, and he immediately understood what the other party meant, "Mr. Zheng should be here for those chili peppers, right?" To tell you the truth, all the chili peppers have been contracted by Zhao Song, so I'm afraid I can't help it. ”
"Contracted by the surname Zhao?"
Zheng Li exclaimed, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly: "This brother's honorable name? ”
"Li Lei."
"Oh, Brother Li, you don't know yet, do you? With the chili peppers purchased from you, Zhao Song specially launched a high-end hot pot, the bottom of the pot alone costs 99, and the highest grade is 899. In the past, that kind of hot pot base only cost 15 yuan, and this is all due to you. ”
Zheng Li looked anxious, Li Lei looked at him, and asked slowly: "These seem to have nothing to do with me!" I just sell chili peppers, how he uses them, how much they price, I don't care. ”
"Little brother, are you stupid? The current chili peppers are only two yuan a pound on the market, and if you sell them all to him, won't you lose money? ”
"It seems to make some sense. But having signed a contract, I don't want to break my word. Li Lei shook his head and said.
"It's easy to do! It's a big deal to tear up the agreement, and I'll pay for how much compensation I have, and I'll pay double the price for your peppers. Zheng Li patted his chest, looking like "I'm good for you".
Li Lei was surprised when he heard this: "What does Mr. Zheng mean, five yuan a catty, and pay liquidated damages for me?" ”
"Yes."
When the words fell, Zheng Li's eyes rolled, and he couldn't help asking: "This, how much is the liquidated damages, you name the number." ”
Li Lei stretched out a finger, "One million." ”
"He's crazy -- ahem, okay, a million is a million. Little brother, when do you think we will sign the contract? ”
Buying chili peppers actually requires a million liquidated damages, Zheng Li only felt that Zhao Song must be crazy, but after thinking about it, with the popularity of that hot pot, one million is really not much.
Li Lei raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, I can break the contract with Zhao Song now, if someone offers a higher price, wouldn't he be able to break the contract with you?" In this case, what is the effect of signing a contract or not? ”
Zheng Li was stunned, and there was more anger on his face: "Little brother, what do you mean by this?" Is my sincerity not enough, or are you just trying to trick me? ”
"It's not about sincerity, it's just against my principles." Li Lei said and turned around and left, "I will continue to plant next year, if Mr. Zhao is interested, come back next year!" I do not send it. ”
"You--you deceive people too much."
Looking at Li Lei's back, Zheng Li was furious.
In order to compete with Sichuan hot pot, he came from 80 miles away, and was even willing to pay liquidated damages, but he didn't expect the other party to give no face at all.
This is obviously a slap in the face!
"Boy, we'll see!"
Coming back to his senses, Zheng Li turned around and returned. As soon as he got into the car, he immediately asked the driver: "Xiao Zheng, I heard that your hometown is in Yangbei County, do you know those gangsters in the county?" ”
Xiao Zheng was stunned when he heard this, "I know one but I know one, we are in the same village, but we haven't been in touch for a long time, I have to ask the people in the village." ”
"Go now."
Xiao Zheng agreed, started the car, and went straight to Nanzheng Village.
……
Not long after Zheng Li left, another car appeared at the gate of the farm.
The door opened, and a slender woman in professional attire got out. The woman was about thirty years old, with her hair in a bun, her eyes soft as jade, and the perseverance of a strong business woman.
"The chili peppers used in Sichuan-style hot pot are purchased from here?" The woman asked the secretary.
"Hmm."
The secretary was also a woman, with clear eyebrows, and replied: "In the past two days, I have been staring at their procurement vehicles every day, and finally found that their raw material suppliers have not changed at all, only this one more." Yesterday I bought their driver, took some back to test, and basically determined that it was the effect of chili peppers. ”
The woman breathed a sigh of relief, "With Zhao Song's old style, most likely there won't be too many loopholes, I hope everything goes well!" ”
At this time, Li Lei had just returned from inspecting the farm, and when he saw two women coming in from outside the door, he was puzzled, and couldn't help but get up and ask, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Hello, are you the owner of the farm?" The woman looked at him and asked politely.
"Yes, my name is Li Lei."
"Hello, Mr. Li. I'm Fang Yun, and I opened a small restaurant in Lingnan City. ”
Fang Yun was overjoyed when she heard this, shook hands with Li Lei, and said straight to the point, "The purpose of my coming here this time is to purchase peppers from Mr. Li's farm, and the price is negotiable." ”
Li Lei was speechless: "I'm sorry." The chili peppers have been purchased by Zhao Song, and there is no way to sell them to you this season. ”
"So?"
Hearing this, Fang Yun couldn't help but be disappointed, but with her understanding of Zhao Song, since they were the first to discover this raw material, they would definitely be wary of other competitors, and it was not surprising that they were all acquired.
Coming back to her senses, Fang Yun barely cheered up and asked, "Mr. Li, can we go around the farm?" ”
"Of course, follow me."
Li Lei nodded and walked into the farm with Fang Yun and the others.
"All the corn planted here is about 60 acres, and it will mature next month."
"It used to be watermelons here, but they have been harvested, and the next step is to plant wheat."
"This is the pepper, which has just started to ripen, and after this season, the next time it will be next year."
Listening to Li Lei's introduction, especially when introducing chili peppers, Fang Yun's eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't wait to pack it and take it away.
In particular, those peppers have just bloomed and are very few ripe, and when they are ripe on a large scale, the number must be amazing.
"Mr. Li, can't you give us some of these chili peppers?" Fang Yun looked at Li Lei, her eyes were full of pleading, "I only have two restaurants, mainly Lu cuisine and Sichuan cuisine, and I don't need too much." ”
"I have signed a contract with Zhao Song, and the payment has been paid in full, so I really can't help you. If you want to buy, you can discuss with Zhao Song. If the demand is not large, he may not mind. ”
"I've only met him once, and if I haven't paid it off, it's impossible for him to agree!"
Fang Yun sighed slightly, her eyes swept over the farm, and when she landed on the corn, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Mr. Li, are these corns also the latest varieties, how do they taste?" ”
