Chapter 77: The Old Village Chief's Worries
Almost everyone knew that Li Yuan could supply vegetables to them, and they immediately welcomed it. Even several five-star hotels in the provincial capital immediately stated that they would buy a large number of goods, and they were willing to sign a supply and marketing contract with him immediately. There were a few anxious customers, afraid that things would change, and they also offered to pay a deposit to Li Yuan, just wanting to settle the matter as soon as possible.
Li Yuan was pleasantly surprised by the enthusiasm of these potential customers, who did not expect that it had only been more than two months since he started growing vegetables, and these vegetables were so popular. This is definitely a great thing for Li Yuan, and it also makes him more confident in his future.
Of course, Li Yuan also takes a starvation marketing approach to these new customers. Whenever the other party asks for 100 catties of vegetables every day, he only promises to give the other party 50 catties, and if the other party only needs 50 catties, he will only have 30 catties on his side.
In short, Li Yuan wants to leave customers with the impression that vegetables are very popular and are in short supply. Only in this way can he take the initiative and at the same time promote the vegetables to a wider market. However, it is also true that in terms of the quality of these vegetables, it is not surprising that they are very popular, and they are not worried about selling at all.
After watering the water that dissolves the gold beads, the vegetables grow much faster. It's only been less than a month, and the green leafy vegetables are almost ready for the market.
Seeing that the green leafy vegetables were growing bigger and bigger, Chen Wenchuan was impressed by the appearance of these vegetables, and he also squatted more and more with his head bowed and sighed.
Li Yuan also felt very strange about this, and couldn't help but find an opportunity to ask him, since the growth of vegetables is so good, why should he be so worried. Chen Wenchuan didn't hide it, and quickly expressed his worries, which also made Li Yuan laugh dumbly.
It turned out that Chen Wenchuan was worried about the sales of these vegetables. These vegetables are indeed growing well, but they are about to be marketed, but there is no movement in the vegetable base. I didn't see anyone coming to the door, and I didn't hear Li Yuan mention it, which made Chen Wenchuan worried.
Chen Wenchuan also knows that in this world, no matter what you sell, you have to rely on advertising. No matter how beautiful and delicious these vegetables are, no one knows that they are still in vain, and they can only rot in the ground in the end. In the past, when Chen Wenchuan was a vegetable farmer, he encountered similar things many times.
So seeing that the vegetables were about to go on the market, the old village chief began to worry. He even had the intention of mobilizing the employees of the vegetable base to pick some vegetables to the town or even go to the city to sell. Although you can't sell much in this way, how much can always recover some losses, right?
"Village Chief Chen, it's not good for me to talk to you about this matter beforehand." Hearing Chen Wenchuan's worries, Li Yuan hurriedly said to him: "I have already contacted the hotels and restaurants in the city. As soon as these vegetables are on the market, people will rush to ask for them, so you don't have to worry about selling them at all! ”
"Can you sell it?" Chen Wenchuan asked a little uneasily.
Li Yuan seriously assured Chen Wenchuan: "It's completely in short supply!" Even several big hotels in the provincial capital have ordered from us, and I don't sell them more. ”
"Haha, I don't have to worry about that." After getting Li Yuan's assurance, Chen Wenchuan couldn't help laughing and said, "I'll tell the others to go, don't worry about sales!" ”
Looking at the back of Chen Wenchuan leaving, Li Yuan couldn't help but smile. It was indeed very satisfying to meet such a village chief who thought about the vegetable base.
However, Li Yuan did not stay in the vegetable base for a long time today, and after comforting Chen Wenchuan, he hurried back to the vegetable garden in the urban village.
As the vegetable base slowly developed, Li Yuan's energy in the vegetable garden was gradually decreasing. He no longer sows seeds in the vegetable garden, and plans to focus all his attention on the vegetable base after he has collected all the vegetables in the vegetable garden.
Li Yuan returned to the vegetable garden today, just to prepare to collect the last batch of vegetables here and send them to the customers, and he will not come back in the future.
This last batch of vegetables was not very much, and it didn't take long for Li Yuan to finish harvesting, and they were all loaded into the rented small truck. Before leaving the vegetable garden, Li Yuan stood for a moment in the open field. After all, this is the place where his career started, and he is about to leave now, so it is inevitable that he will feel a little emotional.
However, Li Yuan has always been a person who likes to look forward, he quickly gently locked the door of the vegetable garden, and cheered for himself in his heart: "There is a bigger stage waiting for you in front, don't be sad to leave this small vegetable garden, come on!" ”
According to the prior agreement, Li Yuan delivered the freshly harvested vegetables to several customers, and the last stop was Liu Yuebing's Xinghualou.
To Li Yuan's surprise, when the pickup truck stopped in front of the back door of Xinghualou, he saw that Liu Yuebing was already waiting outside the door.
"Brother Liu, why are you waiting for me outside?" After getting out of the car, Li Yuan said with a smile: "Actually, just call two small workers to help, you don't have to work your chef himself, right?" ”
As Li Yuan and Liu Yuebing become more and more familiar, there will often be some jokes between the two. Liu Yuebing is easy-going, and he has never been angry because of this.
However, today's Liu Yuebing is obviously a little abnormal, he didn't mean to joke with Li Yuan at all, but frowned and said, "Why are you only here now, ten minutes late!" ”
"It's a bit of a jam on the road." Li Yuan explained simply, and asked Liu Yuebing very suspiciously: "Brother Liu, are you in a hurry?" ”
"Well, it's all because I forgot to tell you before." Liu Yuebing remembered that Li Yuan didn't know anything, so he hurriedly lowered his voice and said to him: "Huang Danyang is coming to Xinghualou, and he is about to arrive!" ”
Liu Yuebing seemed to feel that this news was not shocking enough, and soon said to Li Yuan: "Mr. Huang publicly claimed before he came that the main purpose of his coming to Xinghualou was to taste your vegetables, how about it, excited, right?" ”
After saying this, Liu Yuebing hurriedly beckoned the kitchen workers to move all the vegetables in, and he himself walked to the kitchen with Li Yuan while explaining the ins and outs of this matter.
Although it has only been on the market for more than two months, Li Yuan's vegetables have caused a lot of sensation in Wuxi City and even the whole province. And this Huang Danyang made many inquiries and determined that Liu Yuebing of Xinghualou was the first to launch these vegetables, so he came to Xinghualou in person, in order to taste these vegetables that were rumored to be miraculous, where is it special.
And today is the day when Huang Danyang came to taste vegetables, and seeing that the time for him to arrive at Xinghualou is approaching, Li Yuan, who has always been punctual, is late today, so Liu Yuebing is so anxious that he is not even in the mood to joke.
"Xiao Li, Huang Danyang's evaluation is very important to your vegetables." Liu Yuebing said to Li Yuan solemnly: "Don't leave today, I'll introduce you to him later, and it will definitely help you in the future." ”
"I listen to you, Brother Liu." Li Yuan also nodded seriously, and then asked a little embarrassedly: "This Huang Danyang...... Who the hell is he? ”
