Chapter 34 - Sky-high Prices
Zhang Wenzhong could not hold back and went straight to the village entrance. However, when he arrived, the whole village was already filled with people. Everyone wanted to see, who exactly did Zhang Yitian invite?
In the morning, Zhang Wenzhong didn't take long to sign a purchase contract with Fruit and Vegetable Supermarket for five yuan per catty. Everyone naturally wanted to see what kind of contract Zhang Yitian could sign.
Although no one knew that those people were rushing towards Zhang Yitian.
When Wang Yong saw Zhang Yitian, he very humbly expressed his goodwill: "This world is really too small, I never thought that the Mr. Zhang I have been looking for, would help me solve a big problem a few days ago!"
Zhang Yitian laughed and said that it was just a small matter. However, Wang Yong saw it differently. Guo Sanhei had always been a sore point between him and the entire supermarket. It was simply a miracle that Zhang Yitian had taken care of him.
Last time, Wang Yong had wanted to thank Zhang Yitian properly but he left in such a hurry that he couldn't even think of a way to say a few more words.
Ever since Jiao Yanyan had told him that the young lad who helped him sell her vegetables at a sky-high price, Wang Yong had already made up her mind to get close to this big tree.
Although Zhang Yitian was still at the starting stage of his career, he was a person who was knowledgeable, and knew that Zhang Yitian's future was definitely limitless.
Wang Yong waved his hand, and a small box with fine wrapping was handed over to his hands.
Wang Yong said respectfully: "Mr. Zhang, thank you for helping me previously, this is a box of top quality Yunnan Pu'er, I bought it, this 300 grams is worth more than 10,000, although it is not expensive, I hope you can accept it happily."
When Wang Yong's words came out, the entire village yard went into an uproar. A small box of tea leaves cost over ten thousand yuan? This was the harvest of a vegetable farmer for the better part of half a year?
And Wang Yong actually said that this thing was not expensive? Everyone looked at Zhang Yitian, their mouths agape, their expressions filled with shock. The crowd burst into discussion.
"Oh my god!" A small box of tea cost 10,000 yuan? Are you for real? What did Zhang Yitian do? That's the kind of gift people would treat with so much effort? "
The crowd immediately responded, "Of course it's real. This Audi is worth more than two million yuan. What is a small box of tea worth?"
"This Tian Tian is really awesome. Even the big boss gave him a present..."
felt awkward, he had only wanted to curry favor with Zhang Yitian, he did not expect the villagers to their discussions reached such an intensity.
Zhang Yitian laughed, he felt that there was no need, and said: "There's no need for Director Wang, I don't really like drinking tea, furthermore, I was just there to drink tea."
Zhang Yitian pushed the box back. As someone who lived in Shang Hai's sea, he immediately felt that this present was too light for Zhang Yitian.
Wang Yong thought for a moment, he looked at the secretary, and the two of them exchanged glances, and the secretary took out an item from her bag.
Wang Yong rejoiced in his heart: Thank goodness I made two preparations!
The secretary passed a long box to Wang Yong, who opened the box in front of everyone.
The box was wrapped extremely beautifully. When it was opened, everyone was stupefied. This was because inside the box was a ginseng with complex roots and thick roots.
Wang Yong passed Wang Yong the ginseng, and said with a face full of smiles: "Mr. Zhang … Oh no, I better call you Brother Yutian. "This is a thirty-year-old ginseng, but it was dug out by the Changbai Mountains last year and it's the biggest one in recent years. Now, it's priceless …"
The crowd immediately burst into cheers. 30 years of wild ginseng, it was more than double the price of the tea leaves just now, and Wang Yong actually gave it out so generously, with an expression of begging Zhang Yitian to accept it.
When someone saw this wild ginseng, they almost drooled. If anyone had this ginseng, they wouldn't need to worry about not selling vegetables for a few years.
His heart was truly unbalanced. No matter what, he was Zhang Yitian's uncle, why was it that every time he got lucky, he would let this brat have it?
One of the villagers looked at Zhang Wenzhong whose eyes were glowing, and said sarcastically: "Ahh, truly, compared to people, we have to die, and compared to trash, we have to throw them away ah …."
Zhang Wenzhong snorted, and said to the man: "Old Kong, why are you present everywhere? Who knows if it's true or not? "
Wang Yong seemed to have heard the discussions, and immediately got the secretary to take out the certificate, to prove that the ginseng was real.
This time, no one doubted him, other than admiration, they only admired him. He actually gave Zhang Yitian a wild ginseng as a gift, truly like how Kong Lao Er had said: Compared to people, people must die, compared to goods, it's better to throw them away!
Zhang Yitian opened his eyes wide, and wondered what was going on with Wang Yong. He had already said that taking care of Guo Sanhei was as easy as raising his hand, so there was absolutely no need for him to be so courteous to him.
Zhang Yitian still did not plan to accept it. After all, there was no free lunch in the world and he had received such a precious gift today. Who knew what Wang Yong's motive was?
When Wang Yong saw that Zhang Yitian still had the intention to reject, his expression immediately changed a bit. He said: "Brother Yi Tian, if you don't accept this gift today, you will look down on me, Wang Yong! Or do you think that wild ginsengs aren't good enough? "
Zhang Yitian laughed bitterly, then thought, he still had to talk about cooperation with his later, if their relationship was too stiff, it would naturally not be good.
Zhang Yitian accepted the ginseng, and laughed in his heart, his plan became more or less a plan.
As long as Zhang Yitian accepted the gift, when the negotiations began, Zhang Yitian would naturally give in.
Right now, there were several large scale supermarkets searching for this Zhang Yitian. As long as he could be the first to negotiate an agreement with Zhang Yitian, he would be able to hold a considerable advantage in the second half of the year, and even in the future, when competing with other supermarkets.
To Wang Yong, his cooperation with Zhang Yitian was a great thing that he had gained many times over. He would naturally beg Zhang Yitian for help, what was the difference between this ginseng and the development of the Yongda Supermarket in the future?
However, all of this was not known to Zhang Yitian, he did not even know how famous he was in the Linxi City.
Since the first time he sold the vegetables for ten dollars, his fame had started to accumulate. In the past few days, as he was busy cleaning his garden, the market had almost exploded due to the lack of such high quality vegetables.
After all, in this era, it was extremely difficult to find vegetables of such high quality. Therefore, the regular customers who bought Zhang Yitian's vegetables started to ask everywhere they could think of various ways to increase Zhang Yitian's reputation.
However, the person who bought the dishes was not an idiot, with one look at the quality, he could tell if it was real or fake.
Seeing that Zhang Yitian had accepted the gift, Wang Yong immediately went to the main topic: "Brother Yi Tian, I know your vegetables, the retail price has already reached 10 dollars per catty, and that's all. So, if we cooperate, I can guarantee that under the premise that you can supply as you wish, I can give you 13 dollars per catty for every catty of vegetables!"
"Thirteen dollars?" This isn't buying anything at all, it's selling gold, right … "
Amongst the spectators, no one knew who shouted, but they were all staring at Zhang Yitian, because the price was too shocking.
Moreover, this was only a purchase price, so wouldn't the retail price of the supermarket be even higher?
Wang Yong laughed and then spoke to the crowd: "You all might not know, but Zhang Yitian is now a gold mine, whoever approaches him will be rich!"
It was obviously a compliment, but someone who could get such a big boss to compliment him was definitely not a simple person.
Wang Yong felt that the price he gave was already very high, so he looked at Zhang Yitian with a strange gaze. He was waiting for Zhang Yitian's reply. As long as he agreed, Wang Yong would sign the contract.
Wang Yong felt that Zhang Yitian could definitely agree to such an attractive price. However, the truth was contrary to their wishes. In fact, it greatly surpassed their expectations.
"Director Wang, to be honest, this price isn't even at my level yet!" Zhang Yitian said.
Zhang Yitian's words were like a bolt out of the blue. Not only Wang Yong, but all the villagers present felt that it was too unbelievable.
One jin of thirteen, in other words, with the same amount of production, Zhang Yitian's family's vegetable patch would earn more than ten times the amount of money compared to other families.
But even so, Zhang Yitian felt that it was not enough? He was only selling his own dishes for ten dollars!
Wang Yong also felt very awkward. He had originally thought that this price would completely cover Zhang Yitian, and thus, he agreed without the slightest hesitation.
But the situation had changed, Zhang Yitian also had his own difficulties, the vegetables he had previously sold for 10 yuan were originally of ordinary quality, but they were reborn from his growth technique, becoming high-quality vegetables after he used his own body.
If Zhang Yitian still intended to sell that kind of vegetable, he would definitely agree to it without hesitation.
But it was different now, what he was planting now were seeds that had been selected from the best of the best, and he dared to conclude that the quality of his own vegetables this time round, were absolutely incomparable to those that had been stimulated by the growth technique in the past.
If he still kept the same price as the original vegetables, not to mention letting down his own hard work, it would be even more unfavorable for his future development.
Zhang Yitian planned to make high-end vegetables market, and the market was very vast, so he had only just started. Naturally, every decision had to be made with caution.
Wang Yong naturally did not know of all these, and thought that Zhang Yitian wanted to raise the price in order to ask for the reason.
Zhang Yitian only said that he had imported all of the seeds this time. He promised Wang Yong that if he was given ten more days, he would send him a batch of top quality vegetables that he definitely wouldn't be able to buy on the market.
Wang Yong was skeptical, but hesitated and asked: "Then, what price does brother plan to negotiate?"
Zhang Yitian said confidently: "Twenty!"
This time, the spectators were completely silent, because they knew Wang Yong would definitely not agree to it. How was this the price of vegetables?
Zhang Wenzhong was the most pleased with himself at this moment. He felt that Zhang Yitian had dug a pit for himself and even jumped down happily.
He squeezed through the crowd, pointed at Zhang Yitian and ridiculed: "Haha … You little bastard, after selling dishes for two days, don't you know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is? Twenty dollars? Do you really think this boss is an idiot? Don't f * cking dream about it. "
After the crowd heard what Zhang Wenzhong said, they all laughed. Because everyone thought so. How could Wang Yong possibly agree to such an absurd thing, given how shrewd he looked?
