It’s easier than I thought.
When Xiang Yang heard Li Chao's words, he felt relieved and became more confident.
"Yes, we got another batch of goods, but not much for now. We only got about one or two kilograms, and the size is much smaller than the last batch. Boss Li, if the price is right, there should be a lot more." Xiang Yang had been to the bottom of the sea and knew clearly that there were still many sea cucumbers in the coral reef on the seabed, but there were not many sea cucumbers as thick as an arm.
Li Chao was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone before he smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Xiang, it's not that I won't help you. If you don't have a lot of them, I can still buy them for myself. But from what you said, it seems that there are still a lot of them. I only want high-end products in my hotel. Sea cucumbers as thick as my arm are treasures to me. I really can't serve these small ones to the guests!"
"Is that so?" Xiang Yang was shocked. He had already discussed it with the village chief. What if it went wrong and he couldn't sell it
"Brother Xiang, I really can't help you with this matter, but the batch of sea cucumbers you provided to me last time was of very good quality. If you can get those big sea cucumbers again, I can raise the price a little bit. I also want other high-end seafood, and I promise that I won't let you suffer any loss." Li Chao said helplessly on the other end of the phone.
"Well, okay. Next time if I can get high-end seafood, I will definitely inform you, Boss Li." Xiang Yang could only force a smile, chat with Boss Li for a few more words, and then hung up the phone.
what to do.
what to do!
Xiang Yang forced himself to think calmly. Fatty Zuo was a straightforward person without any scheming and he liked to brag. It would probably not be long before everyone in the village knew where the sea cucumbers were. The water there was not shallow and no one had ever dived there to find a needle in a haystack before because there was no target. But now that there was a target, many people in the village were able to dive there after gritting their teeth.
It would be fine if he had not agreed to the village chief, but the problem is that he has already agreed. When the time comes, the villagers will catch sea cucumbers and come to Xiang Yang to sell them under the guidance of the village chief, but Xiang Yang will not buy them. It doesn't matter if Xiang Yang gets some cold shoulder, but I'm afraid that Xiang's father and mother will lose face!
You can't just pretend to be rich and say you bought some for yourself when you clearly don't have any sales channels, right? Xiang Yang agreed, but Xiang's parents didn't agree!
Forget it, there will always be a way out. Xiang Yang held his forehead and waited for Fatty Zuo to bring the sea cucumber over, took a few photos and sent them to the group, and then asked some other buyers he had added before. No matter how small the sea cucumber is, it is still a treasure from the sea, and it is impossible to let the goods rot in his hands.
On the other side, Li Chao fell into deep thought after hanging up the phone.
The batch of sea cucumbers that Xiang Yang provided to Li Chao could make Li Chao a lot of money, and the most important thing was that it could increase the reputation of Li Chao's hotel in the circle.
Sea cucumbers are something you can't find easily. Li Chao originally thought that Xiang Yang was a lucky guy, and that after this one-time deal for this batch of sea cucumbers, the two would never have any contact again in their lives. But now it seems that this is not the case. The other party is luckier than he thought. He must have discovered a larger sea cucumber habitat, which is why he dared to say that there would be many more such things in the future.
With a large number of items, some of the items may be special in the group, and some may be as thick as an arm. Although the price Li Chao gave last time was relatively fair, the prices of top-quality seafood fluctuate greatly in different cities, and usually the further inland you go, the more expensive it is. Who knows what price Xiang Yang will find? Will Xiang Yang hate himself for not helping this time
Thinking of this, Li Chao picked up the phone and dialed a number. He planned to help Xiang Yang.
The phone rang twice and then was hung up.
Li Chao continued to dial.
After being hung up several times, the other party finally answered the phone. Before Li Chao could speak, the other party's angry voice came from the receiver, "No goods, no goods, no goods, Brother Li, you are my brother, can you let me go?"
"Zhang Qicheng, this time I'm not asking you for the goods. I have good news for you." Li Chao said with a smile.
"Good news?" Zhang Qicheng said two suspicious words and then nothing else.
Li Chao couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that Zhang Qicheng was really forced into a corner by him. It was no wonder. Zhang Qicheng was engaged in seafood wholesale. Not only would Li Chao take away the good goods as soon as he got them, but Li Chao also urged him to get the goods every day. It was inevitable that Zhang Qicheng disliked Li Chao.
Li Chao told Zhang Qicheng everything in detail and added: "That guy also fishes for food in the sea. I think you can definitely get in touch with him. Even if there are no sea cucumbers in the future, he can definitely help you get a lot of sea crabs and lobsters."
Zhang Qicheng's eyes widened when he heard about sea cucumbers. Li Chao looked down on the little sea cucumbers, but Zhang Qicheng thought they were treasures! As for crabs and lobsters, Zhang Qicheng didn't care much about them. Starting from the equator and extending to the two poles, the two families of sea crabs and lobsters almost dominated the world. Although these two are also high-end seafood, they are indeed the least in short supply among all high-end seafood.
... ...
Yanlong Village.
Fatty Zuo ran to Xiang Yang's house happily carrying a bag of sea cucumbers. When he saw Xiang Yang, he shouted, "Brother Yang, I'm here. Please help me see how much these sea cucumbers are worth."
"Keep your voice down." Xiang Yang glared at Fatty Zuo. He was feeling upset right now!
"Isn't this anxious?" Fatty Zuo was glared at by Xiang Yang and said embarrassedly: "Brother Yang, help me see how much these sea cucumbers are worth."
Xiang Yang took the bag and took a look. These sea cucumbers had been pickled but not completely dried. They were about the thickness of a thumb and were considered to be of better quality among wild sea cucumbers.
Seeing this, Yang was slightly relieved. If it was as thick as a thumb, it should be able to be sold for a good price.
Xiang Yang took out his cell phone and was about to take a few photos when his cell phone rang.
Xiang Yang was slightly stunned when he saw that it was an unfamiliar number, but he still chose to answer it.
The person who called was naturally the seafood wholesaler Zhang Qicheng. Zhang Qicheng first introduced himself, saying that he was introduced by Li Chao, and then he went straight to the point and stated his purpose.
Xiang Yang was overjoyed when he heard this. Boss Li was really a nice person. He sent him a pillow just when he was sleepy. At the same time, Xiang Yang was also confused. It is said that competitors are enemies. Boss Li told him about a seafood shipping channel. Isn't he afraid that he will not look for him when he needs high-quality seafood again
Soon, Xiang Yang began to negotiate the specific purchase price with Zhang Qicheng.
The negotiations went more smoothly than Xiang Yang had imagined. Zhang Qicheng said he would pay two thousand yuan per catty for the processed wild sea cucumbers, regardless of size. Zhang Qicheng also stated that if Xiang Yang had other seafood, whether crabs or lobsters, or even the least valuable sea fish, scallops, oysters, etc., he would take them all in the market, and the price he offered was relatively fair, more than twice the purchase price in the town.
