In fact, Shen Chi was already sensitively aware of this change in his father's heart when his aunt's business was on the right track, so whenever he was free, he helped his father give birth to the salvia he planted.

Shen Changlin took the time to go to the post office, sent the letter and manuscript handed over to him by Shen Chi at the address Shen Chi said, and took the money back by the way.

Originally, I was thinking about whether to give Shen Chi a little money to send him, but I thought that Shen Chi had saved more than a hundred pocket money now, and if I couldn't come back, I accepted the money with peace of mind.

Just after March, Liu Xiangren took his nephew Zhang Cheng to Shen Chi's house to order salvia. It happened to be a Sunday, and Shen Chi and his father were tending to the fruit trees in the orchard.

It was not the first time Hu had seen Liu Xiangren, this time there was a young man wearing a suit and tie who came with the two, and Hu warmly received the three of them.

"Auntie, your family has changed a lot compared to when I came last year." Liu Xiangren looked at the forty-something people who were busy in Shen Aizhi's clothing workshop, and said with a sigh.

"It's just begging." Hu Shi modestly said: "You sit, I'll go to the back orchard and call Changlin to come." ”

So saying, he went to the orchard and called for someone.

"Brother Liu, did you come here so early this year to collect ginseng?" Seeing Liu Xiangren, Shen Changlin hurriedly greeted him.

"I just went to Changbai Mountain at the beginning of the year and came back with ginseng, so I'll come here to see if I pass by." Liu Xiangren said and introduced the man with glasses to Shen Changlin: "This is Manager Zhao of the R&D Department of the Municipal Health Products Factory, and we brought Manager Zhao over today to discuss the acquisition of salvia." ”

"Hello." Manager Zhao warmly shook hands with Shen Changlin.

"This is ......," Shen Changlin looked at Liu Xiangren's uncle and nephew suspiciously while holding his hand.

"That's right." Manager Zhao explained to Shen Changlin with a smile: "Our factory has been researching a new health care product recently, but we have not been able to find satisfactory raw materials, your salvia is very suitable for the needs of our factory, and the contemptible people visited this year to sign a supply contract with you." ”

As he spoke, Manager Zhao took out a contract from the leather bag he was carrying.

Manager Zhao said that Shen Chi heard Zhang Cheng say in his previous life, saying that their factory began to research a powerful oral liquid a few years ago, but unfortunately it has not found a good raw material, and the matter has been stranded.

Later, after the reform and opening up, the pressure of market competition increased sharply, and the health care product factory put this plan that had been shelved on the agenda.

When Shen Changlin heard that he was going to sign a long-term and stable supply contract, he was overjoyed in his heart, and an excited smile appeared on his face.

He read the contract and was about to sign it, and then Shen Chi on the side said: "Dad, if you want to sign the contract, you have to let people see the quality of your salvia, my mu will not be sold this year." ”

Shen Changlin was stunned when he heard this, and then returned to his senses and said: "Yes, yes, yes, let's look at the quality first, I planted two more acres this year." ”

Liu Xiangren heard that Shen Chi's own acre was not for sale, so he didn't take it to heart at first, but after they saw the two acres of salvia planted by Shen Changlin, the expression on his face changed along with Manager Zhao.

Seeing this, Shen Changlin couldn't help but ask cautiously, "What?" Is there a problem with the salvia I planted? ”

Manager Zhao said bluntly: "Although the salvia you planted is better than the general wild ginseng, it still does not meet the requirements of our factory, and the only one that meets the requirements of the forest is now." ”

Manager Zhao pointed to Shen Chi's mu of ginseng field and said to Shen Changlin, but Shen Changlin replied with an embarrassed face: "That mu of land was made by my son himself, and it is up to him to decide whether to sell it or not." ”

"Can't you be a father?" Manager Zhao said with a smile.

Shen Changlin's face was stunned, and then he replied: "I really can't be the master of my son." ”

"In this way, I will pay you a dollar and a pound for the price of salvia, and I will pay you half of the deposit of 3,000 yuan now, what do you think?" Manager Zhao thought that Shen Changlin said this just to sit on the ground and raise the price, he had seen a lot of this situation, so he directly took the money and smashed it.

Shen Changlin was really moved when he heard this, and looked at Shen Chi with solicitation.

Shen Chi smiled and said to Manager Zhao: "Manager Zhao, you just see how much my father's salvia can be worth, mine really can't be sold." ”

Zhao Jingxian frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "If the salvia you planted promised to sell it to us, I would be willing to buy your father's for five cents and a catty." ”

Shen Changlin silently calculated in his heart that his salvia could probably collect about 10,000 catties, and five cents a catty could also be used.

"The purchase of 'Xinyuan' health care products factory came to our village last week to collect ginseng, and I also took him to see my salvia, and he said that he was willing to buy my ginseng at a price of two yuan, so Manager Zhao is sorry, and you have to pay attention to honesty in doing business." Shen Chi replied with a smile.

Shen Changlin was stunned when he heard it, how could any purchaser from Xinyuan Factory come, he saw that Shen Chi said that it was not easy to debunk, so he was silent on the side.

Unexpectedly, Manager Zhao and Liu Xiangren changed their color after hearing the word "Xinyuan", Xinyuan Factory also produces health care products, and their "Anhe" is a competitive relationship, and the reason why Shen Chi said this is naturally to take advantage of the information difference in his previous life.

Manager Zhao's original determination disappeared all of a sudden, and he hurriedly looked at Liu Xianghe, Liu Xianghe had dealt with the Shen family twice, and knew that Shen Chi was still a child less than ten years old, and the weight of his words was sometimes heavier than Shen Changlin.

So he pulled Shen Chi aside and said in a low voice: "Xiao Chi, your Uncle Liu's nephew is the 'Anhe' Procurement Department who works, and it is not easy to find a relationship to get in, this is his first task after going to work, give Uncle Liu a face, we have a good price." ”

"It's not a matter of price, it's a matter of doing business, and you're also in business, so you should know the power of it." Shen Chi also said with a look of embarrassment.

Manager Zhao on the side listened to Shen Chi's words and found that the child in front of him spoke well, and he didn't let more than adults, so he began to look at Shen Chi squarely.

Hearing that Liu Xiangren still lobbied, Manager Zhao said directly: "Little friend, your ginseng and I will give two pieces of two." ”

Now that the product research and development of their factory has reached a critical juncture, there are no good raw materials, Shen Chi's salvia is something he finally discovered, and no matter how expensive it is, he has to buy it back.

Moreover, the object of Shen Chi's sale is still their opponent, so they can't care about the cost.

"Now you are willing to sell me your salvia, and I am willing to raise the price of the two acres planted by your father to eight cents a catty." Manager Zhao said again.

As soon as he heard his words, Shen Changlin couldn't help it again, and persuaded Shen Chi when he opened his mouth: "Xiao Chi, it's better to sell it to Uncle Liu, after all, we have dealt with each other twice." ”
