Chapter 8: Selling Seeds
Li Quan brought a bag of seeds, which he exchanged for from the system space. As the second task of coming to the flower market today, it is to sell this bag of seeds and exchange them for real money.
"Does Boss Zhu collect seeds? I have some fresh seeds here, which are good varieties that can be sold cheaply to Boss Zhu. ”
"What seeds?" Boss Zhu obviously didn't expect Li Quan to change his words and suddenly want to sell seeds to him. After reacting, Boss Zhu didn't care, just asked casually. In his mind, Li Quan may have said it casually.
Who knew that Li Quanlai was real, he actually opened his travel bag and took out two flower pots wrapped in newspapers from the bag.
Li Quan opened the newspaper, and when Boss Zhu saw it, it turned out to be two pots of seedlings.
"Cactus?"
"Yes, cactus."
"I'll see." Boss Zhu was a little interested, squatted down and looked at it, but shook his head and said, "The variety is very ordinary, not a rare variety." What's the matter, Brother Li wants to sell these two pots of cactus? ”
"Don't worry." Li Quan smiled confidently and said, "If it is convenient for Boss Zhu, these two pots of cactus seedlings will be put here for you first." I'll go have lunch now, and I'll come back in the afternoon. ”
Boss Zhu was a little inexplicable, and he didn't know what Li Quan was doing. However, for the sake of the previous 2,000 yuan business, Boss Zhu agreed.
"Okay, let me go first."
"Thank you, Boss Zhu. Boss Zhu has nothing to do to study these two pots of cacti, maybe there will be surprises. Li Quan said mysteriously.
Boss Zhu nodded noncommittally, pointed to more than 100 kinds of flowers and plants packed in more than 20 black plastic bags, and said, "Then you ...... flowers."
"These flowers will also be placed here first, and I will find a car to transport them in the afternoon." More than 100 pots of flowers are exhausted, and it is impossible for Li Quan to move them alone. Although he doesn't actually need to move, he only needs to submit them into the system space one by one. But he couldn't submit it here, so Li Quan decided to hire a car in the afternoon and send it all back to his place of residence.
"Gotcha. Then Brother Li, you should go and get busy first. I'll take care of these flowers for you. Boss Zhu said with a smile.
"Then thank you Boss Zhu, I'll go first."
Li Quan was secretly overjoyed, and the plan to sell seeds was half successful. I believe that when I come back in the afternoon, Boss Zhu should be able to discover the special features of these two pots of cactus.
That's right, these two pots of cacti were planted with seeds that were exchanged from the system. Strictly speaking, count the "offspring" of the donated cactus in his bedroom.
After each plant is submitted to the system space as a sample, the seeds of that plant will appear in the seed exchange list for exchange. This time, Li Quanxin bought a total of 136 different plant samples, and after he submitted, there would also be an exchange for these seeds.
As for why he chose cactus, as the first seed to be exchanged, Li Quan had a thoughtful consideration.
Li Quan didn't think that although cactus, as a potted ornamental plant, is very popular, it can't give him much benefit in terms of economic value. After all, the market price of cacti is relatively cheap. If it is a regular flower, it should be able to sell for a higher price than a cactus.
However, price was not the primary factor in Li Quan's choice of seeds. Whether you can make a move or not is the most important thing.
For example, if he redeems the Petunia Upgrade Seed, the effect will be Four Seasons Bloom. The question arises, you say that it blooms in all seasons, who believes it? Do you have to wait for the four seasons to pass, after verification, before you can sell it? By that time the daylilies are all cold.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Li Quan believes that it is necessary to exchange for a seed that has quick results and is easy to prove its value. So when he donated the pot of cactus in his bedroom, the exchange list appeared that this cactus seed could be exchanged. Li Quan immediately noticed this seed.
[Level 1 Cactus Seed, Effect: Growth Cycle Halved]
Cacti themselves grow fast and are evergreen all year round. Upgraded seeds, on top of themselves, have an additional increase in growth speed.
When Li Quan saw it, he immediately knew that this was what he wanted.
How fast can a level 1 cactus grow? As soon as the exchange was made, Li Quan sowed one for experiments. He was very satisfied with the results. So selling seeds today, Li Quan came with full confidence.
……
At noon, he had a simple lunch at a nearby restaurant, and seeing that it was still early, Li Quan started from the No. 5 trading hall and walked around. It wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon that Li Quan arrived at Boss Zhu's booth.
Seeing Li Quan coming back, Boss Zhu enthusiastically took the initiative to greet him.
"Brother Li! You're a terrible cactus. It's growing fast! It's only been one morning, and you see, it's grown so much. Can you tell me what kind of breed this is, it's amazing! ”
Judging from Boss Zhu's excited expression and words, Li Quan couldn't tell that the two pots of cacti had captured Boss Zhu's heart.
Li Quan looked at the two pots of cacti and couldn't help smacking his tongue. It was only one noon, and in less than two hours, both pots of cacti had grown ten centimeters. Anyone who looks at it will say that these two pots of cacti have at least half a month to a month of growth. No one would know that Li Quan had sown them only last night.
"I don't know what Brother Li said about ......the seeds," Boss Zhu said with a smile, obviously he had a strong interest in this kind of cactus seeds that grew unusually fast.
"I'm the seed of our school's experiment, and I'm going to have a bag. Do you want it? Li Quan opened his mouth and came nonsense.
"Yes!"
Boss Zhu nodded without saying a word. Boss Zhu himself has enough reasons to do this, and this fast-growing flower is the most attractive to customers. In fact, many customers don't care about flowers and plants, they just raise them casually. If you raise it and throw it away, it doesn't grow tall and doesn't bloom? Throw. This kind of customer is all too common.
Otherwise, the cactus would not have a nickname called lazy man's paw. It doesn't need to be watered every day, and it doesn't need to be fertilized and cared for. Just buy it and swing it that way. Comfortable.
Now there is such a cactus, customers can raise it casually, even if they are too lazy to take care of it, they can grow vigorously. As long as it is human, there is vanity. Let's ask, this kind of cactus that allows people who don't understand flowers and plants and are too lazy to raise flowers and plants to have some fun, regain their self-confidence, and take the cactus on the balcony to pretend to be with their neighbors, which customer doesn't like it?
Customers like it, and if they sell flowers, they can make more money. This simple truth, Boss Zhu will not understand.
Therefore, when I heard that Li Quan had a bag of seeds, I asked for it without saying a word. When I heard that it was still a seed in a school laboratory, I was immediately happy, it was still high-tech. The high technology is good, maybe he can rely on this cactus to make a name for himself in this huge trading hall.
"Here's a bag. There are 1,000 pills in total, but now there are only 997 pills. If Boss Zhu wants it, these two pots will also be given to Boss Zhu. Li Quan opened his travel bag and took out the seeds that had been prepared long ago.
"What's the price?" Boss Zhu asked eagerly staring at the bag of seeds.
"It's five thousand dollars in total. On average, five dollars a pill. Li Quan replied. To be honest, the moment he wanted to make this price, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart.
"Hmm...... Not expensive. Boss Zhu quickly calculated in his heart, nodded, and said with a smile.
Five yuan for a seed, is five yuan for a cactus seedling. Considering the rate of bad seeds, this cost is a bit higher. But if you take it into account, the cactus can be cultivated by dividing plants, and a pot of finished cacti can be cultivated into countless pots. It's a lucrative business.
If he knew Boss Zhu's concerns, Li Quan would definitely want to assure him that there are absolutely no bad seeds in these thousand seeds, after all, they are produced by the system. Moreover, the seeds exchanged by the system are the offspring of plants fueled by plant essence, and the seeds themselves have strong vitality and germinate very quickly after sowing. But when you think about it, people may not believe it. Li Quan will not reveal his secrets to outsiders.
"Okay, five thousand is five thousand! Brother Li, I ate this bag of cactus seeds! Boss Zhu said, immediately took out his wallet, and found that the cash was really enough for 5,000, so he immediately ordered 500 powder bills and handed them to Li Quan.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Li Quan pretended to be calm and accepted the 5,000 yuan. Heart, it's gone, it's gone! With only 10 contribution points, I earned 5,000 yuan. In the future, if you exchange 100 points and 1000 contribution points for better seeds, how much will it cost?
"Brother Li, if these cacti sell well, I can still consider asking for them again next time I have this kind of cactus." Boss Zhu said with a smile.
"No problem." Li Quan agreed.
A thick pile of 5,000 yuan was in hand, not only did he earn back the money he spent on it, but he also made a net profit of 4,000 yuan. Touching the feeling of the bulging bag in his trouser pocket, Li Quan still feels like a dream, but he didn't expect the money to come so easily, which makes him feel unreal.
But he didn't lose sight of business.
"By the way, Boss Zhu, I hope Boss Zhu will help me collect other flowers and plants, as long as they are cheap, within twenty or thirty yuan, as long as the type is not repeated, how many you want."
"No problem! Brother Li, rest assured, this matter is on me. Boss Zhu patted his chest and promised. Although these two businesses did not make any money in a row, they posted 4,000 yuan, but Boss Zhu was very happy. He had seen with his own eyes two pots of cacti growing ten centimeters under his nose at noon. For these cactus seeds, Boss Zhu has high hopes. Li Quan's order requirements, Boss Zhu is naturally also very happy.
"It's done. Brother Li, do you want me to call a car for you? Help you get these flowers back? ”
"Then it's troublesome for Boss Zhu."
Boss Zhu is familiar with this and quickly called a small truck. The truck driver helped Li Quan carry more than 100 pots of flowers and plants packed in large black plastic bags into the car. Saying goodbye to Boss Zhu, the two sides left a phone call, and Li Quan guided the driver to return home.
……
In a mass KTV box in the city, Jiang Chao was carefully accompanying more than a dozen people to sing at this time. There are men and women. Among them, there was a young man sitting in the middle, and Jiang Chao looked at the young man with a hint of jealousy in his eyes.
A little lady with heavy makeup leaned against the young man's arms and sang "Miss You" with a clear voice with a microphone. Most of the young man's attention was on the delicate touch in his arms, and his hands roamed over the upper body of the little sister, causing the little sister to giggle from time to time and sing intermittently.
Jiang Chao looked dry. On the coffee table, he poured a glass of cold beer and drank it dry. When the young man saw it, he smiled and said, "Xiaochao, do you want to give you a little sister?" Our brothers are so lively today, everyone is in pairs, you are alone, you can't be a brother. ”
"No, no, no." Jiang Chao is polite, but he wants one in his heart.
"Oh, by the way, Xiaochao, what did you just say about that person?"
"Brother Xiao Ting's noble man forgets things, that kid's name is Li Quan, the spring of white water." Jiang Chao hurriedly said.
"Oh. How did you mess with it. The young man named Xiao Ting asked nonchalantly, one hand was still kneading vigorously on the little sister's chest, and the other hand pinched a cigarette, brought it to his mouth and took a hard puff.
"It's that kid who is too arrogant. Playing basketball a little better, like that. I can't get used to him. Jiang Chao replied.
"So arrogant? Your varsity? ”
"How could it be. He's not on the varsity team. Jiang Chao said, unabashedly disdainful of the person who said it, "That kid suddenly played extraordinarily in these two games, I suspect that he took drugs." ”
"Oh?" Xiao Ting's face was straight, and his face was a little more interested, "What medicine?" ”
"Doping."
"Doping?" Xiao Ting's face was strange, he thought it was that kind of thing. After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Isn't this kind of thing only used by professional athletes?" Obviously, he didn't believe what Jiang Chao said.
Seeing that the young man didn't believe him, Jiang Chao was a little anxious. His brother-in-law didn't help him anymore, and if Xiao Ting didn't help him, he really didn't know what to do. Hurriedly said, "It's true, Brother Xiao Ting." You don't know that kid. Usually he is so strong, but when he comes to the game, it is like playing chicken blood. One person singles out one senior team. You say, how is this possible at the level of our high school students? ”
"That's right." Xiao Ting smiled and asked, "This kid you said is quite rich?" Otherwise, how can you buy doping, just for the sake of your school's broken competition. ”
"Rich?" Jiang Chao was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, he said in an uncertain tone, "It shouldn't look like a rich man." I don't usually see him wearing any famous brands. I don't really know the specifics. ”
"Yes." Xiao Ting nodded, thoughtful.
"Brother Xiao Ting, I want to ask you to do me a favor." Jiang Chao gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and said, "Help me educate that kid." ”
"What is his background?" Xiao Ting did not answer the rhetorical question.
"No background. I know that Li Quan's parents are both working and in other places. Li Quan rented a house alone. So I don't think he's a rich man. ”
"That's easy to do." Xiao Ting smiled faintly, patted Jiang Chao's shoulder with the hand holding the cigarette butt, and said, "Your Xiaochao's business is my Xiao Ting's business." Don't forget that we are family. When I was a child, my uncle hugged me. Do you kid remember, when you were a kid, you ran behind a few of our big butts, you couldn't keep up, and you cried and your snot bubbles came out. Ha ha. ”
"Oh, of course I do." Jiang Chao replied with a smile. Although it was to expose the scandal of his childhood, he had no complaints, because it showed that Xiao Tingge still remembered the love when he was a child. The implication is also to express his willingness to follow his younger brother.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chao was overjoyed, poured a glass of cold beer for each of them, and raised his glass and said, "Brother Xiao Ting, I respect you!" ”
"Don't worry, it's on me." Xiao Ting drank the glass and asked with a smile, "Then again, do I want to call you a little sister." You see, you're doing something special here, and that's not good. ”
solved the big trouble of his henchmen, Jiang Chao was overjoyed in his heart, and he obeyed the will of the eldest brother half-pushed.
Needless to say, the temperature in the box is gradually rising.
