397 Buy It Now

The village chief also tried his best to stop them. “Everyone, don’t listen to their lies! If we want to sell it, we can only sell it to the supply company!”

Yu Bing immediately challenged the village chief. “Villagers, how much does the supply company pay?! If you sell it to me now, you won’t even have to leave the village’s entrance and the price will be even higher.”

“Village Chief, don’t stop them anymore. I think they have a point. They’re not selling it to others at a high price!”

“That’s right. Your family doesn’t lack money, so you don’t understand the pain of being short of money!”

Xiao Sheng also smiled and said, “Village Chief, please be more understanding of us poor commoners.”

After Yu Bing found a large rock, she stood up and waved her arms as she said, “If you guys sell it now, we’ll accept it now and pay you on the spot! We’ll get to know each other better over time. Everyone, I wish us a pleasant cooperation. The next time we need to buy other ingredients, we’ll look for you guys immediately. What do you guys think?”

“Alright!” Everyone was completely convinced by Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng’s words and replied enthusiastically.

Yu Bing smiled as she continued to goad them. “Then quickly go back and bring the flour you want to sell. I’ll wait for everyone here!”

When everyone heard this, they dispersed and went home to pack flour.

Since the villagers had already been settled, Xiao Sheng hugged the village chief’s shoulder as he continued to brainwash him. The content was nothing more than that the food factory wasn’t being opportunistic, so the village chief wouldn’t lose his official position.

Just as Xiao Sheng was about to smoke, the village chief finally relented. In fact, he had no choice but to relent. The villagers had already brought flour over.

Yu Bing’s side began to enter the acquisition stage. Some enthusiastic villagers who sold large quantities even carried the large scale over.

Xiaohe Village was only a small village with 60 to 70 families. More than two-thirds of the families participated in the flour sale this time. Some of them wanted to sell 20 to 30 pounds. Other than Mr. Wang, who sold 500 pounds because he was waiting to save his grandson’s life, the rest only weighed 200 pounds at most. In the end, Yu Bing received a total of 4,950 pounds of flour in Xiaohe Village.

It was definitely impossible to pull the wheelbarrow, so the village chief lent his bicycle to Xiao Sheng and asked him to ride to town to contact the transport truck.

Xiao Sheng rode the bicycle quickly. Ten minutes later, he found the post office in town and called the office of the transport team.

Zhang Chao was afraid of missing the call, so he didn’t dare to go back home last night. At this moment, he was still sleeping on the sofa in the office.

He was startled when the phone rang. Then, he sat up and shook his head a few times as he rubbed his face hard with his hand. When he sobered up, he immediately strode to the table and picked up the phone. “This is Zhang Chao.”

Xiao Sheng’s low and magnetic voice sounded. “How many do you have now?”

In this day and age, calls were transferred by people, so the other party could hear the information on the phone at any time and had no privacy, so there were many things that couldn’t be said openly.

When Zhang Chao heard this, he sat on the table and replied proudly, “550.”

If not for his connections, he wouldn’t have been able to gather this amount in a day.

Xiao Sheng sneered. “Ask them to stop. You can only make up this number. Drive over to the entrance of the supply and marketing club beside the Yangqiao Commune in Shanyang County.”

When Zhang Chao heard Xiao Sheng’s words, he held back his retort. After all, there was an operator listening, but he was indignant. He decided to pick Xiao Sheng up personally and see how many people he had gathered, so he could laugh at him!

After Xiao Sheng finished the call, he went to the gathering point to wait for the car.

Everyone in the village had already dispersed. the Wang family’s second son’s family finally sold the flour to Yu Bing for 0.26 yuan. Lin Bi’s two sons also participated. After the troublemakers were pulled onto this ship, Yu Bing felt much more at ease.

Mr. Wang was still helping at the side, since he wanted to do more work to make up for the trouble he had caused. “Little Yu, I’m really sorry. I almost messed things up for you guys!”

Yu Bing shook her head with a smile. “Mr. Wang, if this hadn’t happened, who knows how many days it would have taken us to gather this amount?! Moreover, we lied to you, so I’d like to apologize to you!”

When Mr. Wang heard this, he waved his hand repeatedly. “If I hadn’t met you guys, there’s no telling when I would have sold them all. Now, I even got paid by you guys for my hard work. This is all thanks to you guys!”
