Chapter 32: Boss Zhou's Phone Call
Peng Lei was shocked by the contents of the woven bag, and Peng Miao was the same. Corn, cabbage, radish, cucumber, green onions...... There was nothing in the big bag of vegetables that they didn't recognize, but they really hadn't seen it. This sounds contradictory, but it's true. None of them had ever seen corn with long arms, radishes with thick calves, or green onions as tall as children. When what they are most familiar with suddenly becomes unfamiliar, all they feel is shock.
"Big brother, you tell me the truth. Is our master a god? No matter how I look at these vegetables, they all look like they are grown on the fairy mountain. My mom, these cucumbers are almost sperm, aren't they? Peng Lei took out a cucumber of nearly one meter from the woven bag and said.
"Although there is no immortal mountain, my master has a bit of a fairy wind and bones."
Zhong Huan couldn't help but smile in his heart after speaking. What he said is true the other way around, the Immortal Master doesn't have it, but he has one in the Immortal Mountain, isn't the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain in the Ten Thousand Beasts Gu similar to the Immortal Mountain!
"Lei Lei, don't play tricks! Put it away. You should understand how precious these seeds are. If our village can succeed in the trial, you will be the great hero of the village, and Zhong Huan's master will be the great benefactor of the village. ”
Peng Miao was as surprised as Peng Lei at first, but she immediately woke up from the excitement and fell into an even more excited state. Seeds are no less than life for farmers, and there is an ancient saying that they starve their parents to death and do not eat grain. Good seeds in ancient times meant a good harvest and a family would not starve to death. Although the tragedy of starvation does not occur in modern times, good seeds are still important to farmers. If the seeds are good, the harvest will be good, and if the harvest is good, the economic benefits will be good. A small seed is a big treasure that can make the whole village rich. Of course, Peng Miao was very nervous, for fear that Peng Lei would break it a little.
"These dishes were just picked in the morning, right? I want to send it back to the village as soon as possible, so that I don't die. ”
Peng Lei also realized the importance of these seeds, with which he could realize his dream of leading the whole village to prosperity. When he noticed that there were whole fresh vegetables in the woven bag in addition to the seeds, his first thought was to get the vegetables into the ground as soon as possible.
"I'll take leave to go back with you, so that there won't be an accident on the way." Peng Miao didn't worry about Peng Lei alone, so she didn't even go to work.
"Sister, you don't need two people to go back. If you go back, I will go with Zhong Huan to sell peaches. When Peng Lei heard that his sister was going to ask for leave, he suddenly remembered that he still had a sales task.
"Go back together! It's more important to experiment. I can sell fruit alone. It's a big deal, just buy less today. Also, my master's affairs should be kept as confidential as possible, and the family should know about it. Zhong Huan specially instructed.
"Don't worry, big brother. I know how to say it. And these seeds must have been planted in my field first, and no one else would know about them. Peng Lei patted his chest and reassured.
"Zhong Huan, thank you for finding such a good seed, and thank you Master. I will ask Peng Lei to come back as soon as possible to help you. My parents can take care of the seeds, so you can rest assured. ”
Peng Miao knew that her parents were experts in farming, and even if she and Peng Lei stayed at home, they could only help, so it was better to let Peng Lei come back to help Zhong Huan quickly.
"Of course I'm relieved to hand it over to my uncle and aunt. Peng Lei, you take more peaches and plums back, and let your uncle and aunt taste them. ”
"Okay! Then my sister and I will go first, and try to go back as soon as possible. You might even be able to catch the evening rush hour. ”
Peng Lei said as he packed the fruit and carried the woven bag on his shoulder. Peng Miao had already started to take a taxi on the side of the road at this time, and she knew that the sooner the whole vegetables were planted in the ground, the higher the survival rate, and now was not the time to save money, even if it cost a few hundred yuan to take a taxi back to the village.
Zhong Huan watched Peng Lei's sister and brother get into the car, and then rode into the market on three wheels and set up a stall in the old place. There were vendors who had eaten plums around, and when they saw that Zhong Huan was selling extra-large peaches today, they came over to cheer them on. They think that the big plums sold by Zhong Huan are delicious, and this peach must not be wrong.
In order to save trouble, Zhong Huan also set the price of peaches at twenty-five catties, the same as plums. Peaches of about two catties can also be sold for fifty yuan each, and the price is basically not reduced. However, even if the price is expensive, there is still an endless stream of buyers.
The king-size peaches and king-size plums are put together to make them even more eye-catching. People who have bought plums will naturally not let go of peaches, and those who have bought peaches will definitely buy a few plums to taste. The two fruits have one price, and the people who buy them can buy them together, and Zhong Huan can also weigh them together, which really saves a lot of trouble.
Just when Zhong Huan's business was booming, Zhou Hongda was a little anxious. In the past two days, he has searched all the major farmers' markets and wholesale markets in Donghai City, but he has not found the longevity peaches sold by Zhong Huan.
It stands to reason that he left Zhong Huan's phone number, and it is not difficult to find Zhong Huan. However, Zhou Hongda has been in business for many years and has a lot of eyes, so he naturally understands that running a hotel cannot rely on just one supplier, which is tantamount to handing over the lifeblood of the hotel to others. In case something goes wrong with the sole supplier, it's the hotel's signboard that will be smashed.
So he didn't rush to contact Zhong Huan, but wanted to find out who Zhong Huan delivered the goods to, and whether there were any others selling this kind of longevity peach in the market. Even if it is finally decided to buy from Zhong Huan, it is better to negotiate with Zhong Huan after investigating the market clearly.
But what Zhou Hongda didn't expect was that he traveled all over Donghai City, and he didn't find the kind of peaches that Zhong Huan sold. In order to find out who Zhong Huan supplied to, Zhou Hongda also went to the Changjie Market to find Mao Tong and Wang Xilai, and through them found Jia Dafu, who wholesaled fruits.
As a result, something that surprised Zhou Hongda even more happened. Jia Dafu had never heard of such a person as Zhong Huan. I haven't sold any longevity peaches. This point was also confirmed by Zhou Hongda in the surrounding merchants. As it turned out, Zhong Huan appeared at the Long Street Market once that afternoon, and never appeared again. The honest peach seller in Zhou Hongda's heart suddenly became mysterious at this moment.
Zhou Hongda really couldn't figure out Zhong Huan's path, so he didn't dare to contact him. When he returned home and told his father Zhou Ruixuan, the old man was also interested in Zhong Huan.
"You, you, you're getting more and more cowardly. Didn't you praise Zhong Huan for being a sincere man before, why are you suspicious of others now? At best, he lied to the security guard, and he didn't lie to you, what are you worried about? ”
Old Man Zhou didn't think Zhong Huan was mysterious. Isn't it the first time that the young man set up a stall at the entrance of the market, but he didn't dare to set it up again after being checked by the security guards and the city management, nothing unusual.
"Dad, I don't think it's as simple as you think. Why was it so coincidental that I caught up with him on the first day of setting up the stall? There are a total of more than 20 peaches in the car, I picked eight first, he took the money to sell the peaches and didn't leave, I'd rather be caught by the city management than help me stay until the end, do you say there are such stupid people in the world? And his big peach is too cheap, you say it won't be deliberately tricked for me, right? ”
The more Zhou Hongda thought about it, the more he felt that Zhong Huan was suspicious, as if many things were too coincidental.
"Hmph~ Who do you think you are? Also catch you on the bait. Just to catch you, people also specially planted a tree of longevity peaches? Is it worth it? With that kind of peach technology, who cares about your family background? Zhou Ruixuan glared at his son, he hadn't found his son so suspicious before.
"Ahem~ Dad, I'm not careful. So what do you say? ”
When Zhou Hongda heard what his father said, he also felt that no one would set up such a game for himself, so he couldn't help coughing embarrassedly.
"What else can I do? Call someone. If you can't find a second one in the market, it means that they have a secret recipe. You invite someone home for a meal, have a good exchange, and see if you can let him serve our restaurant. There are two sides to everything, it is true that it is risky to point to a single supplier, but if the goods of this supplier are unique, then even if we take a big risk, we will take it down and form a monopoly. If we are timid, the benefits will be someone else's, and at that time, others will have it, but we will not, so we can only stare dryly and drool. ”
Zhou Ruixuan hated iron and taught his son a lesson. Doing business is to be careful, but you must have the courage to do so. From the analysis of the current situation, Zhong Huan is only selling the shou peach alone, and the business is still in the stage of self-employment, which is not large-scale at all, which is a good opportunity to talk about cooperation. Once Zhong Huan makes the business bigger, or Shou Tao's reputation starts, the competition will be fierce. At that time, let alone the formation of a monopoly in Hongda Hotel, it is difficult to say whether it can get a piece of the pie.
Zhou Hongda didn't expect his father to attach so much importance to this matter. Generally, cooperation is arranged in the hotel, and there are not many partners who can let Mr. Zhou speak and invite him to his home. Zhou Hongda is not a stupid person to be able to make such a big business, and soon realized that this was a rare opportunity, and hurriedly picked up his mobile phone and called Zhong Huan.
"Hey~"
Zhong Huan's voice rang on the other end of the phone, which made Zhou Hongda breathe a sigh of relief. As long as this mysteriously disappeared young man does not evaporate from the world.
"Is it Zhong Huan? I'm Zhou Hongda. It's the one who bought you eight peaches last time and almost got caught by the chengguan. Zhou Hongda was afraid that Zhong Huan would forget about him, so he mentioned what happened last time.
"I remember! Boss Zhou who helped me out of the siege. Are you looking for me? Zhong Huan, who was busy selling goods, couldn't guess what Zhou Hongda was looking for himself.
"It's a bit of a thing. Are you selling peaches right now? Zhou Hongda heard the chaotic voice on the other end of the phone, as if someone was still asking the price, so he asked tentatively.
"Yes! Do you want to buy peaches? Zhong Huan listened to Zhou Hongda ask the peach, and somewhat guessed the other party's intention, then again, the two of them had nothing to do with anything other than selling peaches and buying peaches.
"That's right! Where do you sell peaches? I've been to the Long Street Market a few times, but I haven't found you? Zhou Hongda continued to probe tentatively.
"It's not like you're not allowed to set up stalls there! I've been setting up a stall at the Le'an Road Free Market for the past two days. Zhong Huan reported his address, and he didn't know if Zhou Hongda would be too far away.
Zhou Hongda was relieved when he heard that Zhong Huan was on Le'an Road. He has been walking around the city for the past two days, this Le'an Road is out of the south of the city, and the market is not big, no wonder he has not been able to find Zhong Huan.
