Chapter 14: The Big Deal
"Hey, Brother Wang, what's the matter, oh, that lobster, that lobster was really bought from the farmer's market, and there are many people there who can testify, really, I swear, okay, we'll get in touch when we have time." Chen Ming shook his head with a wry smile and hung up the phone.
This is the fifth call in the morning, without exception, the purchasing managers of various hotels, all of whom asked about one thing, that is, the lobster bought from Lin Jiawei.
The reason is because yesterday afternoon, there was a very important banquet, and the lobster purchased by the purchasing department was unexpectedly missing, and it was more troublesome to re-purchase, so Chen Ming brought Lin Jiawei's lobster, which was also a chilled fresh lobster, of course, the chef's craftsmanship was by no means comparable to Lin Jiawei, that piece of lobster meat was more crystal clear, as if crystal, but I didn't expect something to happen after it was served.
Originally, the head of this lobster was peculiar, and no one cared, but when the first person hid it, it was conquered in an instant, the taste was soft and smooth, with sweetness and coolness, and instantly compared other lobsters to the bottom, and ate a few pieces one after another, his abnormal behavior finally attracted the attention of others, and also tried it, and the result was spread to ten, ten to hundred, and more people could only listen to the people who ate how delicious they described, and they were about to be praised to the point that there was nothing in the sky and on the ground, and the poor other lobsters were forgotten.
If it is an ordinary wine table, it will be over, but this time it is a gathering of some well-known characters in Hangzhou, and Zeng Zhiwei, who is famous for foodies, also participated.
Chen Ming looked at the business card in his hand, he didn't know what to say, this business card was given to him by Lin Jiawei, and he also took it out of politeness, but he didn't expect it to have such a big effect, and it was also the last hand he left for this matter.
"Whenever I hear the melancholy music, the sadness of the memories is evoked, whenever I see the white moonlight, I remember..."Zhang Xinzhe's "Faith" once again came out from the 6S of the local tyrant Jin.
Chen Ming picked up the phone and saw that he was the former master, and later switched to another hotel as the person in charge, but he had the grace of knowing Chen Ming, so Chen Ming still respected him very much.
"Hey, Amin, it's me." A low, deep voice came from the other end of the line.
"Master." Chen Ming said with some respect.
"Ah Ming, I won't beat around the bush with you, do you still know about the lobster seller, or can you contact him?" The other party cuts straight to the point.
Chen Ming was a little hesitant, but thinking that this kind of lobster was hard to find, and his master was really good to him, he rang it and said, "Lin Jiawei, 152 ********." ”
"Thank you!" Obviously, the other party didn't expect to sue himself, and after an obvious pause, he thanked him.
So, Lin Jiawei, who was still teaching the fairies how to dance hula in his sleep, was interrupted by a series of phone calls.
Lin Jiawei touched the old Xiaohua mobile phone, opened his worried eyes, saw that it was a strange call, pressed the answer button, put it on his face, and said weakly: "Hey, which one?" ”
"Hello, is it Mr. Lin Jiawei, I'm sorry to disturb your sleep, I'm Chen Ming, we met yesterday." Chen Ming was still a little uneasy, so he called to confirm.
"Oh, it's Brother Chen, what's the matter with you?" As soon as he heard that it was Chen Ming who had helped him, Lin Jiawei cheered up and sat up.
"That's right, I want to ask the lobster from last time, do you still have it?" There was a hint of nervousness in Chen Ming's words.
"Oh, lobsters, and more." Lin Jiawei glanced at the fish tank.
Chen Ming sighed when he heard this, and secretly congratulated himself that he called first to confirm, and hurriedly said: "You still have a few more, I want them all, the price is negotiable." ”
"Also, I'll count them, and there are three more." After Lin Jiawei finished speaking, he was excited, and he regretted it instantly, this kind of lobster is not ordinary to see, how can he have so much, when the time comes, how to explain, if he can't explain it, then he will not have to go through the gang at that time, the more he thinks about it, the more nervous he becomes.
However, Chen Ming did not dwell on this problem, he did not hesitate to say: "Mr. Lin, I have bought all these lobsters, as long as they are not outrageous, the price can be as much as possible, but there is one thing, that is, no matter who calls next, you can't sell them to him." ”
Lin Jiawei was a little unbelievable when he heard the price, as for whether to sell it to others or something, it was directly filtered out, in his opinion, who else still knew that he had lobsters, so he admitted: "Okay, then when will I give it to you?" ”
"That's it, when you're free, when you'll be delivered." Chen Ming said.
Lin Jiawei just wanted to say that it was okay now, but he thought that he would immediately agree, and it would not be good to ask for a high price when the time came, so he said: "Wait a minute, I still have some things, and I will contact you when the time comes." ”
Of course, Lin Jiawei didn't admit that he still wanted to sleep lazy.
Although Chen Ming wanted to buy it immediately, he knew that this matter was not in a hurry, so he said, "Okay, I'll wait for your call." ”
Lin Jiawei hung up the phone and wanted to sleep for a while, but this morning was destined to be a sleepless morning, because the managers of various hotels called one after another, but he still kept his promise and did not sell to anyone else.
Shocked by a series of phone calls, he had already lost his sleepiness, and seeing that the time was already more than 9 o'clock, he picked up his mobile phone and found the first call of the day and called back.
After making an appointment with the location, Lin Jiawei found a suitcase under the bed that had not been covered with dust for a hundred years, wiped the dust, and put the lobster in this empty suitcase.
Of course, in order to prevent the lobster from dying, Lin Jiawei took a taxi very luxuriously and came to the Brilliant Lights Hotel.
Chen Ming was already standing at the door waiting, and when he saw Lin Jiawei getting out of the car with a big suitcase, he was slightly stunned, and then walked forward with relief and said with a smile: "You are really good at transporting, I don't know that I thought you were going to live in our hotel." ”
Lin Jiawei was stunned when he heard this, but quickly vetoed it, and hurriedly said: "How can you afford to live in a small ** silk like me in your hotel, oh, this is what you want, let's weigh it, you really said it, after you called, many people called, and I couldn't sleep well." ”
Lin Jiawei snorted, in fact, he wanted to remind the other party that I have a very right buyer, if the price is low, I will not sell you.
Chen Ming is also a human being, where did he not know Lin Jiawei's hints, and said directly: "Don't worry, I will charge twice the price, that is, 1,000 yuan a catty, are you satisfied?" ”
When Lin Jiawei heard this, he was stunned, the price of 1,000 yuan per catty was a little unexpected, and he nodded with satisfaction: "Okay." ”
Soon after a long time, the three lobsters were thirteen catties and six taels, Chen Ming took 13,600 yuan and handed it to Lin Jiawei and said: "Happy cooperation, if there is this kind of lobster in the future, I will ask for it all at this price." ”
Lin Jiawei secretly slandered to himself: I now have Chang'e's hair and the hair of the daffodil fairy, I'm afraid that I will raise them all, and you can't afford them.
He didn't look strange on the surface, he looked at the more than 10,000 yuan in his hand, although he had it before, but it was all in the card, he didn't feel anything, this time it was different, the first time so much money was in his hands, he felt so satisfied, and said with a smile on his face: "Happy cooperation." ”
Lin Jiawei still didn't realize his difference, and was still immersed in his own thinking.
After Lin Jiawei returned to his rental room, he simply packed up his clothes, took the only electrical equipment - an old-fashioned computer, and his little friend Xiaobai left the rental house where he had lived for many months, called a car, and went to the second-hand market to sell the computer cheaply.
Then Lin Jiawei found a few hotels, chose a Huangting Hotel with a bathtub to live in, paid a three-day deposit, the reason why he wanted to find a bathtub is not because he likes to take a bathtub, but wants to use the bathtub to raise lobsters.
After settling down, Lin Jiawei took Xiaobai out, after all, Tianting's barber shop is about to open, and now there is nothing, so he has to go to buy some haircutting utensils first, although these electrical appliances can't be used, but some gel water, hair wax, combs and other things can still be bought.
"Let's go, let's go, now that your master has money, I'll buy you some dog food when the time comes." Lin Jiawei teased Xiaobai, walked to the Huangting Hotel, and went straight to the famous commercial street in Hangzhou.
Shopping in the commercial street again, Lin Jiawei felt a lot, without the retro style of Heaven, but full of modern atmosphere, and the towering high-rise buildings were visible.
Lin Jiawei came to a large store specializing in selling barber utensils, don't look at 10,000 yuan, a set of slightly better imported scissors here costs more than 20,000 yuan, and a pair of scissors with exquisite craftsmanship and sharp steel fire often cost about 3 or 4 thousand.
Lin Jiawei usually uses Sebastian Sebastian, which is also the most convenient to use, and the gel water is also commonly used by himself, just after paying, the phone in his pocket rang.
"Hello, it's Lin Jiawei, I'm Zeng Zhiwei, you can call me Zeng Shao, Chen Ming introduced me here, I want to ask, do you still have lobsters over there?" The young and clear voice of the self-proclaimed Zeng Shao came from the mobile phone.
When Lin Jiawei heard this, he knew that the other party was a rich man, because the female shopping guide said something like welcome to Givenchy on the phone.
"Yes, yes, but not on my side, at my friend's, I won't get it until tomorrow." Lin Jiawei went out while making a phone call.
The reason why I moved out a friend is to have a buffer time for myself to raise lobsters, and on the other hand, if something happens, I can also push the matter to a friend who doesn't need it.
"Okay, then call me tomorrow when it arrives." Zeng Shao didn't say much.
"Well, okay~" As soon as Lin Jiawei hung up the phone, he felt that he had bumped into someone.
"Who doesn't walk long...... It's you! ”
