Chapter 78 - I Can't Give It to You Alone
Ten times? Furthermore, it was fifty yuan per catty as the base price!
Even though Chen Yaru was prepared, she was still shocked by the price.
Previously at the Wang Family party, she had used words to tell Lee Donghua to ask him if Zhang Xiaoloong sold him 100 RMB per catty, and he would also accept the full price.
This was only a joke, but now it seemed that even if it was not one kilogram per kilogram, some vegetables were not far off. In the future, when the price was high, it might even exceed the price.
“Isn't this price too high?” While Chen Yaru was surprised, Zhang Xiaoloong said a price that made her sweat.
These two people were really strange. The buyer raised the price so high, but the seller disliked that he sold it too expensive.
“Don't worry. Since Elder Sister Yan offered this price, there will definitely be a lot of profits. Maybe it can be several times more.” Chen Yaru helped and said.
“Sigh, just say that you value your friend more than your friend. Are you helping him or helping me?” Hong Yan pretended to be dissatisfied again.
“Of course I am helping you, Elder Sister Yan. Xiaoloong has no experience in doing business. It is not right to doubt Elder Sister Yan's offer.” Chen Yaru said in a serious manner.
Hong Yan was also amused by her words. “Alright, I will say that ever since I had a boyfriend, this Zhang has been… His mouth became sweeter and sweeter, and it became more and more coincidental. It seemed that Xiaoloong did not lose his tune. I'll teach you. “
Chen Yaru blushed. Although she was not as experienced as Hong Yan, she still knew what he was teasing her about.
Now that she thought about it, if Hong Yan had not arrived so early, perhaps what she said might have really happened.
Thinking about it, her face turned even redder.
“Our young miss is still embarrassed,” Hong Yan continued to pretend to be surprised.
Fortunately, he did not continue to tease her. “Alright, Xiaoloong, let's get down to business first. What's the price? I have also considered it carefully. I can still make some money from it. But it was not as exaggerated as what Yaru, the handyman, said. Jinshi's dishes were indeed expensive. However, Jinshi's service and cost are also much higher than other hotels. My profits are not high, so my only request is… Your dishes can only be sold to me alone, and no other hotels can appear. If possible, we'll immediately sign the contract. “
This time, what surprised everyone was that Zhang Xiaoloong was seriously thinking about it.
“Sorry, Elder Sister Yan. I might disappoint you. I cannot sign this contract with you.” Zhang Xiaoloong said something that surprised everyone.
“Why? If you still think the price of the dishes is low, I can raise the starting price for you. Isn't that enough?” Hong Yan was a little unhappy.
She had never gone to beg anyone before, and this time, she had clearly given the other party a lot of face. Although the dishes were indeed delicious, it had to be said that it was because of Chen Yaru's face that she would give such a price so readily.
Moreover, she believed that even other hotels knew that the dishes were delicious. They would definitely not be willing to pay such a high price like her.
In this way, Zhang Xiaoloong did not know how to appreciate favors.
“Elder Sister Yan, don't be angry for now.” Sensing the other party's emotional fluctuation, Zhang Xiaoloong explained first. “This is not a matter of money. At present, I only have one acre of premium vegetable land. But my goal is not to only manage this acre, but to turn the vegetables in Qinghe Village into an industry. If I sign a contract with Elder Sister Yan, then I will produce batches of vegetables. Elder Sister Yan can't eat it, and I can't sell it to others. What should I do then? “
” If that's the case… ” Hong Yan frowned even more. This time, it was not because he was angry, but because he was thinking about what Zhang Xiaoloong had said. “Do you mean that this type of vegetable is very likely to be popularized in large quantities?”
“That is what I plan to do at the moment,” Zhang Xiaoloong admitted. “I want to promote high-quality vegetables to the whole country, not just for the rich.”
Hong Yan hesitated. The reason she was willing to pay a large price was because the vegetables were extremely delicious and there were only so many of them.
As the saying goes, the rarer something is, the more expensive it is. If there were such vegetables all over the street, why would she spend ten times the price to buy them?
Even if she was willing to be the sucker, the people who came to eat here were not fools. Who would be willing to pay a high price for a plate of vegetables that could be eaten anywhere?
But this time, she was not angry with Zhang Xiaoloong. On the contrary, this young man's idea was very strange, and he paid attention to something different from others.
“Are you really going to popularize this type of vegetable? I mean it is exactly the same as what we are eating now.” Hong Yan was silent for a moment before he finally spoke again. He did not wait for Zhang Xiaoloong to answer. He continued to speak his opinion. “If possible, I suggest that you try not to, although you might have such an ideal. Obviously, you haven't thought about what kind of impact this kind of vegetable will have on the market if it is sold in large quantities. When that happens, countless vegetable farmers' vegetables will be less than one-tenth of your food quality. And it's possible that you'll lose everything. This shouldn't be what you want, right?”
Zhang Xiaoloong was stunned for a moment. Indeed, he had never thought of this problem.
All this time, his idea had always been to give good things to the rich and the poor so that they could have a chance to eat them. But now that Hong Yan mentioned it, it seemed that there would really be a process.
Not to mention, if such a large batch of Divine level vegetables suddenly appeared in Qingyang City, he was afraid that it would immediately be snatched away, and in comparison, because of his existence, the price of more vegetables would be lowered to a minimum. It was not surprising that some of the vegetables of the farmers would rot in the fields.
“But the price of Xiaoloong's vegetables is too high, and it will not be able to be produced in large quantities in a short period of time. It should not have any effect on others, right?” Chen Yaru paused for a moment and immediately said, “But this is indeed unfair to Elder Sister Yan.”
” How about it to me? We can talk about it another way, but if it is to be mass produced… What position do you want to set the price? It's impossible for it to be ten times as high as mine, but how low can the price be to be popularized? ” Hong Yan smiled.” Have you thought about this before? “
Zhang Xiaoloong pondered for a moment. “Then how does Elder Sister Yan think it should work?”
He did not know, but he did not know. After all, Zhang Xiaoloong was not omniscient.
“Well, I will make some benefits for myself openly. ” Hong Yan's mood also became better when he saw that things could be discussed successfully. ” In my opinion, this dish is suitable for the path of the best. It's a premium dish, no, it's actually a premium dish. It doesn't matter if you want to popularize good vegetables, but think about it… If you can mass produce gold jade, I'm afraid it will be a fatal blow to this industry. “
Zhang Xiaoloong nodded repeatedly. Although he didn't know about business, he knew that things were precious when they were rare.
No matter how good an item was, once it overflowed, it would become extremely common and no longer precious.
“Alright, I agree that these vegetables will only be provided to Elder Sister Yan's family. Let's sign the contract.” Zhang Xiaoloong suddenly had a flash of inspiration and figured out the problem that had been troubling him all this time.
