When they arrived at Longgang Town, Wang Leshan continued to drive according to Uncle Awang's directions. Uncle Awang had a good memory. Although he went around a lot, he still found the breeding farm called Niu Laoda. This is where Uncle Awang bought his cows, and it looks like the scale is pretty good.
Wang Leshan and others from the breeding farm got out of the Land Rover. They took a high look and greeted them politely to the office inside. The owner of the breeding farm also came over quickly and shook hands warmly with Wang Leshan and Uncle Awang. , As for Uncle Awang, who came to buy cattle a few years ago, it is naturally impossible for him to remember it.
Wang Leshan explained the purpose of his visit. When the boss, whose surname was Niu, heard the number, he immediately became interested and politely led Wang Leshan and Uncle Awang to the cattle pen at the back to see the cows.
Wang Leshan didn't understand the quality of cattle, so of course he had to obey Uncle Awang.
This farm mainly raises cattle, both dairy and beef cattle. They look at the dairy cows first. Although Uncle Awang is not an expert in this area, he is at least a layman.
The main breed of dairy cows here is the same as what Uncle Awang’s family raised before. They are all Friesian cattle, also known as Holstein cattle. They are native to the Netherlands and are found in China and even around the world, with wide branches. Friesian cattle are the largest, most widely distributed, and most milk-producing dairy breed. The Friesian cattle in China are bred from imported breeding cattle and cross-bred with local female cattle. Compared with other parts of the world, they are more dairy-oriented.
Pat the cow's back, touch the milk, open its mouth to look at the cow's tongue, and even open the cow's tail to see...
Uncle Awang came here to buy cattle a few years ago, and he made inquiries and comparisons. In terms of dairy cows alone, this cattle farm is the best in Longgang Town. Over the past few years, the quality has gotten even better.
Uncle Awang looked at the cow very carefully. After looking at the cow, he even asked to be milked. After about half an hour, Uncle Awang nodded towards Wang Leshan.
When the boss surnamed Niu saw this, he laughed: "You can tell by looking at this big brother that he must be a good cattle farmer and has a good vision. If you come to buy cattle from me, that's right. I will definitely satisfy you. In the whole Longgang Town, we The cows in the Niu Boss Farm dare not say they are number one, but they will never admit they are number two.”
Wang Leshan and Uncle Awang discussed it softly, and then said to the cattle boss: "Please take us to see the beef cattle again."
"good."
The cattle boss led the two of them to another cattle pen, pointed at the cattle in the cattle pen, and said to them: "The beef cattle we have here are the best breed in Jiangnan Province, Longshan cattle, and the taste of the meat is absolutely unparalleled. Yes. This cow is more expensive than ordinary cattle, and its requirements for feed are not low. I have to tell you this first. Compared with ordinary beef cattle, the cost is probably more than double."
Regarding Longshan scalpers, Wang Leshan and Uncle Awang have both heard of it, and they are quite famous. Uncle Awang went up to take a look again. Although he didn't know much about beef cattle, he could tell something good by analogy. After reading it, Uncle Awang also nodded towards Wang Leshan. Obviously, the quality of the cattle in this cattle boss's farm is quite good.
After seeing it, Boss Niu led Wang Leshan and Uncle Awang back to the office. The next step was obviously to discuss the price. The cattle boss first took out the price list from their farm and showed it to Wang Leshan. The prices for dairy cows and beef cattle of each month were marked on a per-head basis.
Wang Leshan looked at the price and found it was cheaper than he expected. The price of young Friesian cattle, that is, 24-month-old Friesian cattle, is only about 6,000. As for calves, they are naturally cheaper, and the price of beef calves is not high.
Wang Leshan thought for a while, discussed it with Uncle Awang, and said to Boss Niu: "Boss Niu, we are going to buy some of these two types of cattle. We need 20 Friesian cattle, 24 months old, 6 to 9 months old. 20 calves, 60 calves under 6 months old and over 4 weeks old. As for Longshan cattle, all 200 calves are under 2 months old. As for the price, is there any room for negotiation?”
Cows need milk. Generally, the lactation period is after giving birth. Naturally, they need to be older. However, beef cows do not have this requirement. Generally, they can produce meat when they are about 6 months old.
When Boss Niu heard this quantity, his eyes immediately lit up. He thought for a moment and then said with an extremely embarrassed look: "Boss Niu, our price is clear, and there is usually very little bargaining. However, the quantity you use is also Da, I think you are sincere about it. How about we calculate the total price first and then discuss it?"
Taking the computer and pressing it quickly, Boss Niu said: "20 black and white oxen aged 24 months cost 120,000, 20 oxen aged 6 to 9 months cost 90,000, and 60 calves cost 120,000. Longshan oxen cost 200 400,000. The total adds up to 730,000. In this way, 30,000 is directly wiped out and treated as 700,000. What do you think?"
Wang Leshan doesn't care too much about the price, or even the quality of the cattle, because he believes that the scrap cattle in his farm can be turned into sacred cattle. Just when he was about to say yes, he was pulled by Uncle Awang. Uncle Awang said to the boss Niu: "Boss Niu, we are direct people. The price is 600,000. If it works, I will leave you the address." With the deposit, if it doesn’t work, we’ll leave.”
When Wang Leshan heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
Boss Niu was also stunned for a moment and said: "Brother, your counteroffer is too harsh. We won't make any profit at all!"
Uncle Awang pulled Wang Leshan, and Wang Leshan had to stand up.
When he saw this, the cattle boss became anxious on the spot, called the two of them, gritted his teeth and said: "You two, the price is 650,000, no matter how low it is, there is really nothing we can do!"
Hearing this, Uncle Awang stopped, turned his head and showed his big yellow teeth, and said: "Okay. But it has to be delivered to your door. We only leave a deposit of 20,000 today. Once it is delivered, we will pay the balance. Moreover, the delivery is halfway If a cow gets sick or something else happens, it belongs to your farm.”
Boss Niu nodded: "That's no problem."
Wang Leshan paid a deposit of 20,000 yuan and took the receipt. During this period, Uncle Awang also asked about some pig farms, sheep farms, chicken farms, etc. that had good reputations from the cattle boss.
The two of them left the cattle farm under the watch of the cattle boss, drove to a pig farm and asked several people. The quality of the first farm was average, but the quality of the other one was pretty good. Wang Leshan placed another order for 200 piglets.
Then the two went to the sheep farm, had a quick bite at noon, and then went to the chicken farm.
… .
Since the opening of Crazy Fruit and Vegetable Garden, it has been busy almost every day, and it has been almost sold out every day. As its reputation grows, more and more people come, not only in Yunxiang New District, but also in other places in Yunhai City. Many people come here because of it.
As for the prices in Crazy Fruit and Vegetable Garden, many people even cursed them, and even after they cursed, they still bought them willingly. Many people took photos of these prices and posted them on WeChat Moments, and some even posted them online, causing quite a stir. However, more people are showing off the deliciousness of the fruits and vegetables here, which has also caused a lot of trouble.
Every day from 10 am to 11:30 am and from 4 pm to 5:30 pm, these are the times when the Crazy Fruit and Vegetable Garden has the most customers. The five stores are no longer small, but they are still packed to the brim, and the 19 shop assistants are also busy. It's less, but still very busy and sweating profusely.
Around 5 o'clock that day, there was a sudden noise from the door of the already busy fruit and vegetable garden. At first, the customers in the store didn't notice it, they were all picking and grabbing the food with gritted teeth, but gradually some people felt something was wrong and turned their heads to look at the store door. But I didn't know when seven or eight people came to the door. Some people were holding banners and yelling and cursing. They seemed to be shouting that the things here were poisonous or had been drugged. These people were arguing with several store clerks, and seemed to be rushing into the store to smash it.
"What's going on?"
"Go and have a look."
People buying food in the store are rushing towards the entrance of the store.
At this time, Ah Xiang and Ah Guang were standing at the door of the store blocking the group of people. Ah Xiu suppressed his anger and his tone was still acceptable. He said to one of them, a woman in her forties: "Sister, I've already told you that all the fruits and vegetables in our store are without any pesticides. You said that your husband got food poisoning, but that doesn't necessarily mean he ate the fruits and vegetables in our store. You are so here Isn't it a little inappropriate to make trouble here? Why don't we go to the office inside to talk."
"I just ate something from your store, and the inspection report has come out, and you still want to lie about it! Wherever you go to the office, just say it here."
The woman screamed, with a ferocious look on her face. She was holding a hospital examination report form in her hand, shaking it, and shouted at more and more people who crowded to the door of the store: "Big guy, This fruit and vegetable store is a black-hearted shop. The products in the store are all treated with pesticides and chemicals! These fruits and vegetables are so fresh, but they are soaked in potions! These are poisons, and they are sold at such high prices. It’s really It’s unreasonable, it’s so evil!”
"Look, look at it!"
The woman showed the report sheet to those people and shouted: "I have been coming here to buy food for two or three days. I think the food is delicious, so I come here to buy it every day. Almost everything I eat at home is from here." Food. But today, just after one o'clock in the afternoon, my husband suddenly fell to the ground and was frothing at the mouth. I sent him to the hospital, and the examination revealed that he had food poisoning. He didn't eat anything else today, but he ate something from their house. of fruits and vegetables.”
Then he took a sealed bag from someone nearby, pointed to the contents in the bag and said: "This thing was washed out of my husband's stomach. After identification, the chemicals in this thing seriously exceeded the standard. The doctor said It can cause chronic poisoning. My husband is not in good health to begin with, and the toxicity soon became apparent. I also went for a checkup, and the doctor said that I have also been poisoned. It is not deep yet. If I continue to eat, I will definitely be poisoned. He will be like my husband!"
Aguang and Ajiu saw that the woman was getting more and more outrageous, and their faces immediately darkened. Aguang even shouted: "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Talking nonsense?"
The woman's voice was louder than A Guang's: "The evidence is right here, and you still say I'm talking nonsense!"
Behind her, a rather burly man with a fierce look said to the woman: "Sister, why are you telling them so much! Pay for it. If you don't pay for it, we will destroy this store and make it impossible for this black-hearted store to continue to operate. !”
