Chapter 473: Profiteering

The corners of Lin Fatzi's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he held back his anger and said, "Then I'll buy a thousand catties first../No matter how high the price is at the end of the year, how much higher can it be?" No matter how rare this thing is, it is also a chili pepper, not a fruit of life, and it will not live forever if you eat it, and it will not cure diseases. ”

He was just outside the crowd, so he heard Laixi's words clearly.

Lai Xi shook his head and said, "A thousand catties is too much, and forty wen a catty is too cheap." ”

Heipi's worship of Laixi is like the river of Qinghui River, gushing endlessly, he respectfully lowered his hands and stood behind Laixi, looking like an errand runner.

Lin Fatzi and his entourage were depressed and wanted to vomit blood, they had never seen anything like this: no one bought twenty-five wen here, but he offered forty wen to be happy but did not sell it.

He asked a little dejectedly: "How much can the shopkeeper Yang sell to the next generation?" At what price do you want to sell? ”

He made up his mind that if Laixi's price was too outrageous, he would turn around and leaveβ€”he wouldn't die if he didn't eat chili. He originally wanted to buy the chili pepper and sell it to make a profit, but he was so shrewd that this calculation was in vain.

Lai Xi said: "We just sold it, and it's not easy to sell it at a high price." If Master Lin buys 300 catties, it will be considered 40 catties a catty; If Master Lin buys 600 catties, it will cost 50 catties a catty. No more. We can't just start the price because Master Lin buys more, so we have to sell less. ”

Everyone is staggered, this is not a high price?

The attendant couldn't bear to ask: "If a merchant comes to buy three hundred catties tomorrow, you will also give forty wen a catty?" ”

Laixi looked at him and nodded innocently, "Of course." ”

The attendant shouted angrily, "Then why don't you sell us this pepper for fifty cents a catty?" You're sick in the head! "He followed his master to the north and south, and he had never seen such a person.

Lai Xi laughed when he heard it, touched his nose, coughed and said: "It's like this: do business, pay attention to financial resources." It's impossible for our owner to sell chili peppers for just one year and not sell them, so he will naturally sell them next year. The more merchants know about this chili, the more famous our shop will be, and the better our business will be next year. If it is all sold to Master Lin, even if the price is higher. All the fame and fortune have been earned by Master Lin, so why don't we sell a fart? What a little more money to make! This is the same as selling 25 wen a pound to the neighbors. ”

Lin Fatzi had lost his temper, and stared at Lai Xi for a while before laughing and said, "Okay!" Yang shopkeeper. Brother Yang, my Lao Lin has convinced you. Six hundred pounds is six hundred pounds, let's also have a relationship, how about being friends? I'll go back and help you spread the word, and you'll just wait at home for someone to come and buy chili peppers./"

Lai Xi smiled and said: "Master Lin is so refreshing, then we can't be too unkind, so let's sell Master Lin 800 catties of chili peppers." Fifty wen a pound. I rely on my friends to do business, otherwise I can do this to my neighbors? ”

The entourage was almost vomiting blood: after arguing for a long time, he didn't even see him loosen his mouth when he even had to raise the price, so the old man made an empty promise, but promised to sell an extra 200 catties. The old man still praised him, he felt that this person was just a bad brain.

Lin Fatzi smiled and narrowed his eyes and said: "Eight hundred catties is not enough, and I don't take it out anymore, I use it to give it away." Take a trip. I might as well bring something fresh home. After arguing for a long time, it actually cost forty taels of silver. Brother Yang, I think this pepper may be really like what you said. By the end of the year, it will be sold at a high price. Although it is amazing that chili peppers sell for 50 wen a catty, who cares about this in rich people? Look, I bought 800 catties for only 40 taels of silver, and I knew that I wouldn't fight with you. ”

Lai Xi smiled and said: "In business, just now Master Lin wanted to buy it and sell it back, so naturally it would be good to have a penny lower." If you buy it and give it away, something worth forty taels of silver is a little cold for a character like Master Lin. How many more are you going to send to them, right? ”

Lin Fatzi smiled proudly: "That's nature." One family gives 100 catties, which is good-looking and money-saving, and it is rare to be novel. He didn't feel at all at a loss.

Thereupon. Laixi asked Lin Fatzi to move the 300 catties of chili peppers first, and the remaining 500 catties said that he would come to pick up the goods in the afternoon.

The entourage called a car to load the chili peppers, and Lin Fatzi generously paid off the forty taels of silver in one go, and did not come to write the arrears, and left happily, saying that he would come back in the afternoon.

Wait for him to go. Those onlookers rushed up, you three catties, he two catties, grabbed the chili pepper.

Lai Xi exclaimed distressedly: "Uncles and aunts, this is just chili peppers, not a good thing, you better buy less, it's better to buy meat if you have money." ”

He is really persuasive, and he is really distressed: sell less, save and sell to merchants. However, he had already boasted that he wanted to sell it to his neighbors for 25 wen a catty, so naturally he could not break his promise, so he could only sigh and persuade others not to spend money indiscriminately.

This is also a helpless thing, just now he just couldn't get used to the fat man who ate his chili peppers and didn't sell well, so he pretended to be a strange thing, and the more he bought, the higher the price, so he refused to sell more. If we had known the result, we would have made another arrangement.

Heipi was also distressed: fifty wen a pound of miles, but at this time it can only be sold for half the price.

These people are just shallow-eyed, and they heard that they bought 50 wen a catty, and if they didn't buy 25 wen, it would be too much of a loss. But he didn't want to think about it, if you buy two catties of this chili pepper, can it still be turned into meat? Unless you resell it to someone else, you will still suffer a loss after all, why are you so brainless!

When Huaizi and Uncle Ma turned their heads and came back, the chili peppers had already been sold, and Lai Xi urged him to hurry back to the village to transport some more, and he still owed people 500 catties.

Huaizi was stunned when he heard the black eyebrows fluttering and recounting what happened just now: he had just negotiated a deal with someone in Qinghui Restaurant, selling three hundred catties, thirty wen per catty, and he was really proud in his heart, and felt that he had a good start, and the rest was not difficult to sell. But looking at the results of Laixi Sale, didn't he talk to himself?

Chrysanthemum had two requirements with him and Laixi earlier: one is that less than twenty-five wen cannot be sold, and it is better not to sell it than to smash this "scarce is expensive" signboard, anyway, the chili pepper is only three or four wen a catty, this business is not successful, at most the wasteland will not be bought;

The second is that each time it is sold to a large household, it cannot exceed 300 catties, otherwise the price will be increased. Because at the beginning, no one knew what the market was going to be, and it was not easy to finish the goods.

He smiled at Laixi and said, "I didn't sell much, otherwise it's really hard to say." It's up to you to sell this chili, and I'll go home and do my own thing. According to Chrysanthemum, the higher you sell, the more you take. ”

Laixi smiled proudly: "Look at what you said, I have such a little vision for Laixi?" I sold chili peppers just now, and I said let it go, and I didn't regret it; Our own relatives, can we still calculate this small account? I didn't take a penny, and helped my aunt complete this business, and my aunt will get rich in the future, and she can forget my nephew? ”

Huaizi smiled and gave him a fist, and said, "I know that you are a visionary, but it is not good for you to work in vain." I was going to have lunch here, but I had to go back first and come back in the afternoon. ”

Lai Xi said: "Let's eat together again in the evening." I was about to invite Shi Bantou to have a drink, and you went too, and he said last time that he wanted to visit you and wanted to make friends with you. Also, the chili peppers sold to the neighborhood will be limited to 200 catties per day in the future, and it will be 6,000 catties a month. We can't suffer too much, right. ”

Huaizi nodded, said that everything was up to him, and hurriedly left with Heipi and Uncle Ma.

As soon as he went home and told him about it, Heipi added on the side - what he saw with his own eyes, everyone was stunned when he heard it, and even Chrysanthemum felt incredible, sure enough, it was the same no matter where the rich people were.

Zheng Changhe muttered: "Isn't it just chili, if you don't eat it, you won't die, isn't it the same to endure it for a few months and then eat it?" ”

He said distressedly: "It took two catties of chrysanthemums to cook at noon. In the future, we won't eat it, we will sell it all, and we will eat it until the new pepper comes on the market next year. Fifty pounds of chili peppers, no matter how delicious they are, I can't swallow them! ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

So they all went to dig chili peppers. This work is the same as burying chili peppers in the first place, but you can't let the tenants do it, you can only do it yourself. Whoever makes this preservation too low in technology is simply no technical content, and anyone who has seen it at a glance can do it, so it is impossible for people to see it.

Everyone put on masks, took out the chili peppers, rinsed them with well water, washed the remaining plant ashes on them, filled them with drained water in baskets or baskets, and took them out to meet people refreshingly.

The goods in the backyard of the Zheng family were taken out first, and even the ones that were to be sold tomorrow were taken out, and the weather was cold, and the peppers were not easy to break if they were so open.

After being busy, everyone washed their hands by the well, and Liu Yunlan said to Chrysanthemum: "Chrysanthemum, next year, we will plant our own peppers, and plant them in June and July, so as to harvest the peppers after autumn, so as not to buy them outside and make a fuss." I was angry before I didn't sell people, and when Ming'er heard that we sold fifty wen a catty, I was afraid that I would be angry. ”

Chrysanthemum nodded, "That's what I thought." Grow and harvest by yourself, anyway, we have a lot of land now, chicken manure and pig manure, mixed with plant ash and soil manure, not afraid of insufficient fertilizer. ”

Aoki and Huaizi are also so good, and they can store more.

Yang washed his hands, shook the water vigorously, sighed and said, "I don't know how long I can hide it, and I will offend everyone." Last time, when the full moon wine was arranged, your second aunt asked your grandmother, told your grandmother to scold her, and muttered that the old man didn't care about his son; Several cousins of my aunt's family also tried to talk about it, but I ignored them; Yun Lan, your mother's family also asked, right? ”

Liu Yunlan nodded and said: "I didn't ask much, I just told my mother, no one can say that she doesn't know, and she doesn't know either." After making money, can I forget my mother's house? It's better than being so noisy that everyone knows it, and no one can make it. Mother rest assured, I've said hello, and my mother's account can still be calculated. ”

Yang nodded and said, "That's the reason." ”

Chrysanthemum shook her head and smiled: "If you really let people know, you just don't make this money, and you don't have to be angry." ”
