Chapter 22 Expensive Vegetables
:
It was 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning, and the lavender street lamps on both sides of the road had not been extinguished. Occasionally, carriages would gallop past with their owners who had just finished their nightlife.Although the nightlife of the nobles has just ended, the new day of the commoners has already begun. Although there are few people on the street, there are already many busy people in the residential areas on both sides.
The winter in the northern countries is very cold, and the blizzard and snow hurt people's faces like a knife.Liu Dingjia hurried to the restaurant that he had been paying attention to for two days.A handsome bun face was flushed red by the cold wind, but for Brother Qiang's face, someone insisted on not covering his face with the scarf hanging around his neck.
Old Jerry opened very early today, not because he suddenly became hardworking—the proprietress knows, he has always been a very hardworking person—but he opened very early today because someone knocked on his shopkeeper's door early in the morning .
Which daredevil is it?The dining room is not set up yet.
Complaining in his heart, Old Jerry hung the opening bell on the hook on the counter, knocked lightly, and then went to the door and opened it.
"Guest, is it so early?"
Old Jerry looked at the unfamiliar face of Baozi outside the door, and greeted him politely, but he was thinking in his heart that he was a man from a foreign country. No wonder he knocked on the door so early in the morning—he looked good, and looked very delicious. It must be very popular with women.
Old Jerry couldn't help becoming vigilant. Although his proprietress Annie was over 200 years old, she still had a charming charm. The most important thing was that she always lacked the necessary resistance to such a vigorous and handsome young man.
Old Jerry Liu Dingjia knew each other. In order to learn about this restaurant named "Fanny's Flower", he also had a few chats with this nagging old man.
"Hey, old Jerry, I'm looking for your boss." Liu Dingjia stepped forward, and without thinking seriously about where he had seen old Jerry, he turned sideways and walked into the restaurant from the side of the old man. The restaurant just opened It was empty, not even Al, the male waiter.
"Sir, do we know each other? What do you want from our boss?"
Old Jerry, who followed closely behind, stood behind Liu Dingjia, frowning and asking.He carefully recalled that he had worked in "Fanny's Flower" for more than 120 years, but he had never seen this handsome boy with a bun face.
"Old Jerry, your memory is not good. We met only two days ago, and we talked for a while. I'm looking for your boss to do business with her——I have a batch of vegetables on hand. Thought Boss Baker would be interested."
Deliberately teasing old Jerry, Liu Dingjia leisurely found a bench and sat down, crossed his legs and signaled the old doorman to get the boss quickly: "It's getting late, I'm going to another restaurant."
Seeing Liu Dingjia's ruffian appearance, Old Jerry's gray brows were almost wrinkled, and he didn't want the boss to see this rascal boy more and more: "What vegetables do you want to sell?"
"Watermelon and cabbage!" As he spoke, Liu Dingjia took out a cabbage from the interspatial ring, and played with it casually in his hand.Although this world has a vegetable greenhouse that is not inferior to the original world because of magic, but because of the lack of natural elements, although this business is very profitable, few people operate it.There are only seven magic plantations in the entire Odong continent, and they are all concentrated on the edge of the forest or in the south. It is difficult for a small northern city like Anthina to get the things grown by these plantations.
Old Jerry stared closely at the cabbage in Liu Dingjia's hand and almost narrowed it up and down, and his tone of speech suddenly became much more gentle: "Wait a minute." After speaking, the old man immediately Turn around and run quickly to the backyard.
Liu Dingjia whistled towards Old Jerry's back.
When Anne/Baker, the female owner of "Fanny's Flowers", walked into the restaurant from the backyard, Liu Dingjia was chewing the leaves of cabbage in his mouth - he got up too early in the morning and didn't want to be noticed by others, he came out very early today I was in a hurry and didn't even eat breakfast. Now I can only eat cabbage to satisfy my hunger.
Seeing Anne/Baker appear in the restaurant, Liu Dingjia quickly stuffed the cabbage leaves in his mouth into his mouth three times, chewed and swallowed them in two bites, and Erlang quickly put down his legs.
Annie bowed her head and gave old Jerry some instructions. The old man nodded and ran to the back kitchen.
Liu Dingjia, who had already stood up, walked towards Anne/Baker with half a cabbage in his hand: "Boss Baker, hello."
"Hello." The female boss nodded to him, and gestured for the two of them to sit down and have a good talk about the sale of vegetables.
In fact, there is nothing to talk about. Vegetables are very scarce in such a cold season. Although it has not yet entered the severe cold season in the south, the exports of vegetables from several major growing countries have gradually decreased. In such a place, these goods are completely out of stock at the end of April in autumn.
Annie is worried about whether the supply of these vegetables is safe and reliable, and of course whether the quality and quantity can satisfy her; Liu Dingjia is worried about whether these things can be sold smoothly, and the price level.
In order to show the high quality and low price of the goods he sells, Liu Dingjia took out all the things he was going to sell and let the female boss taste them. The result satisfied Annie. The taste of these things was very good, and they looked like things from a magic plantation.
"Isn't it?" Seeing the weird look on Liu Dingjia's face, Annie couldn't help being curious, "I think if these things didn't come from the magic plantation, how could they be so delicious."
"Actually, that's not the case." Liu Dingjia said, "These things did come out of the plantation, but no magic was used." Liu Dingjia briefly told Annie about the vegetable greenhouse, and classified the things he sold into It is within the range of products produced by an unknown "greenhouse plantation".
While the two were sitting at the dining table discussing, Old Jerry walked in with a breakfast in his hand, and a large bowl of thick soup made from snow raccoon meat was placed in front of Liu Dingjia. The already hungry "Brother Qiang" Regardless of his demeanor, he picked up a spoon and began to eat with big mouthfuls.
On the side, the female boss was still sighing about the "greenhouse" technology that Liu Dingjia said: "I've never heard of this technology, but it's a pity that you don't know the details, otherwise I would like to try it myself."
Liu Dingjia swallowed the snow raccoon meat in his mouth, and laughed aloud: "I'm really sorry." I thought to myself, if your experiment is successful, I will sell you something.However, he himself is well aware of his weight. Almost everyone knows the basic theory of a vegetable greenhouse, but it requires a lot of knowledge and experience to set it up. Moreover, in the cold autumn and winter in Suydun, there is no certain auxiliary equipment. Even the vegetable greenhouse may not be able to grow the cabbage in his hand.
The female boss had a very regretful look on her face.In the northern region, because the season is cold all year round, people seldom eat green vegetables. Vegetables that are worthless in the south can be priced at the same price as the meat of Rujia beast (a kind of mouse with frankincense flavor) in Anxina. .
Because of this difference, the female boss looked at Liu Dingjia's eyes gradually became hot-hot, and she suddenly felt that the supply of goods was not so important. This handsome man sold her something, and she just bought it, and she didn't care. what else?As long as both parties keep it a secret.How many people who do business are truly honest?
"How many of these vegetables do you have?" Annie peeled a piece of garlic and put it in her mouth. The taste was strong, but she was very satisfied.
"50 watermelons, 200 cabbages, 200 melons, 200 garlic, and 20 lotus roots." Liu Dingjia, who was full, pretended to gracefully pull out a white handkerchief from his coat pocket to wipe his lips and hands, and turned to the woman. The boss's smile was also very sweet and gentle, "Boss Baker, I believe you will definitely give me a fair price."
"I want it all." Anne/Baker boldly bought all Liu Dingjia's things.Seeing that Liu Dingjia had finished eating, she called Old Jerry to clean up the table, and then said to Liu Dingjia in a low voice, "Although I feel very rude, I hope that the two parties can make a contract, and you promise that there will be more goods in the future." If you want to sell to Anxiana, you must give priority to selling to our restaurant, and promise that the source of these vegetables is legitimate, and we will give you a very fair price, so that you will not suffer, how about it?" Such a contract is [-]%, even if these things The source is not correct and has nothing to do with her.
"Of course," Liu Dingjia was very satisfied with the female boss's proposal, "but there is one more thing, 'Fanny's Flower' must guarantee that it will not leak anything about me to the outside world, I don't want our technology to be known or even stolen by others .”
"Of course." The female boss readily agreed.
In the end, Liu Dingjia was very surprised by the price quoted by the female boss. In the end, he even thought that this beautiful and shrewd woman was just teasing him. With the price quoted by her, how could ordinary people afford it?
"Of course I have my sales channels." Seeing Liu Dingjia's doubts, Annie put a lock of hair from her forehead behind her ears, and explained to him, "These vegetables are not available to ordinary citizens in Anxina."
Liu Dingjia suddenly understood, and he nodded.
A bunch of things were finally sold at a very good price for Liu Dingjia, a total of 220 silver coins and 15 copper coins.The annual consumption of the four members of Suydun's family is only seven or eight silver coins. Unexpectedly, he earned so much in one day today.Holding the money in his hand, Liu Dingjia couldn't help "tsk tsk", lamenting in this world where vegetables are more expensive than meat, it would be unreasonable for a "beautiful young man" like him who has space in his hands not to become a rich man!
After signing the contract, he took out all the vegetables in the ring and let Old Jerry move them into the storage room. Liu Dingjia complacently accepted the payment from Annie.The female boss was very puzzled by his secretly happy look. To be honest, she deliberately lowered the prices of these vegetables in order to give both parties room for bargaining when quoting, but what was unexpected was that this self-proclaimed "Xu Wenqiang" The young man agreed without hesitation, with an expression of earning money.Of course, Anne would not narcissistically think that this young and handsome guy was fascinated by her own charm, so she felt more and more weird and uneasy about Liu Dingjia's current behavior.
