Chapter 271 The fruit we talked about last time, now we have it.
Su Niannian stood up and smiled.
"Okay."
Upon seeing this, Lü Hongliang couldn't help but curse Lao Qian a couple of times.
They say his business is thriving, which is truly enviable.
"Your business is doing quite well, isn't it?" Old Qian said, patting Lü Hongliang's chest with the back of his hand.
Old Qian is a seasoned veteran; judging from Lü Hongliang's expression, Su Niannian hasn't given up on this business with him.
Old Qian also felt a bit more relaxed.
Otherwise, I was worried that Lü Hongliang's deal was going to fall through.
"Miss Su, shall we go over and make the deal now?" Old Qian asked Su Niannian.
Su Niannian nodded.
"I still need to go get the pig offal later, you guys go ahead and do your work, I won't go," said Lü Hongliang, standing to the side.
"Alright, don't forget to save me another fifteen or sixteen pounds today, so I can treat my men to a little something to eat." Old Qian patted Lü Hongliang on the shoulder and said.
Lu Hongliang nodded. "I understand. You'll get your share."
Then Lao Qian gestured for Su Niannian to follow, and Su Niannian smiled and followed.
Old Qian's truck was parked in the alley outside.
Old Qian diligently helped Su Niannian move her bicycle onto the truck, and then got on the truck with Su Niannian.
Soon, the truck arrived at the courtyard that Su Niannian had rented.
Following the same procedure, Su Niannian needed to go inside to check on things first, while Lao Qian and the others waited in the yard.
Old Qian had his underlings move scales and other equipment, preparing things in the yard.
After Su Niannian entered the room, she waved her hand and took out the items from the spatial storage.
Then I went to the back window, went around to the two rooms next to it, and did the same thing to take the items out of the space.
After everything was settled, Su Niannian returned to the courtyard.
"We can go in and count the quantities now," Su Niannian said to Lao Qian with a smile.
Old Qian was much happier than Su Niannian. He told his underlings to go in and move the things, and then weigh them.
Old Qian walked up to Su Niannian and asked her with a smile.
"Do you have the fruit we talked about before?" Old Qian looked at Su Niannian expectantly.
Su Niannian smiled and nodded.
Old Qian's smile deepened.
"The price?"
"Let me check the quality first," Su Niannian said with a happy smile.
Actually, Su Niannian had a rough idea of the price, but since everything produced in her space was of high quality, the price was still higher than that of items on the market.
Upon hearing this, Old Qian nodded. "Don't worry, Little Su, I, Old Qian, will definitely give you a very reasonable price," Old Qian said, patting his chest.
Su Niannian responded with a smile.
Old Qian's business has been booming lately, and he's made a lot of money, so he's been very generous to his underlings.
Salaries are almost double what they used to be.
The younger men felt that following Lao Qian was really good, so they all worked very hard.
The speed at which we moved things today was much faster than before.
"Brother Qian, the house on the left is full of fruit. The whole house smells wonderful from the fruit." A henchman brought out a box of apples.
Just by looking at it, you can tell it's in very good condition.
Even before you've eaten anything, you can smell the aroma of fruit wafting over.
"Little Su, these are pretty good quality apples." Old Qian looked at the apples his younger brother had placed there.
I couldn't resist, so I picked one up, rubbed it on my clothes, and put it in my mouth, taking a big bite.
The aroma of apples instantly spread throughout the mouth, and the juice was rich and flavorful.
My entire mouth was enveloped in a sweet apple aroma.
"Delicious, really delicious," Old Qian said to Su Niannian, pointing to the apple in his hand.
This is the first batch of apples harvested from the space, and Su Niannian hasn't eaten them yet.
But judging from Lao Qian's performance, this apple seems to be really good.
When I got home, I took out some fruit and told my mother that I bought it in the county town.
Su Niannian smiled happily, "If you think it's good, then it's fine."
Everything was quickly moved out.
It was piled up in the yard, and it was a huge pile.
One of Old Qian's men stood next to the scale, watching the items being weighed and then recording the results with pen and paper.
After everything was weighed, the man handed the completed list to Old Qian.
Old Qian glanced at it and handed it to Su Niannian.
"Little Su, check if the numbers and weights are correct. If they are, I'll start calculating the accounts," Old Qian said.
Su Niannian took the paper from Lao Qian, checked the contents and weight, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, returned the paper to Lao Qian.
"Wow, so much fruit! Luckily I brought a lot of money with me today, otherwise, it really wouldn't be enough to pay for it all," Old Qian said with a smile.
I'm not afraid of things being expensive, I'm afraid of things being bad.
If the product is good, it will sell well, and people will buy it even if it's a bit pricey.
There are people like this in every era; there are people who have money in their pockets and are willing to spend more money to eat good things.
Old Qian now has a regular clientele.
At this moment, Old Qian sat on a small stool in the yard, placed the sheet on his lap, and began to calculate carefully.
Fortunately, Lao Qian had some schooling and could do basic math. Moreover, he had been in business for many years, so he could do the math quickly.
"Four thousand catties each of wheat and rice, totaling eight thousand catties. At seven mao per catty, that's five thousand six hundred yuan."
"Tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, green peppers, and cabbage, 300 jin each, totaling 1,500 jin. At 3 mao per jin, that's 450 yuan."
"The sweet potatoes and potatoes weigh a total of 1,000 jin, and at 3 mao per jin, that's 300 yuan."
"We have apples, pears, peaches, and dates, 300 jin of each. What's the price?"
When Lao Qian got to this point, he looked up at Su Niannian, as if asking for her opinion.
“My stuff is better than what’s on the market. How much do you think is a good price?” Su Niannian returned the question to Lao Qian.
Old Qian thought that these four fruits were actually common fruits on the market.
The taste is indeed much better than what's available in the market, where these things usually cost only a few cents per pound.
The price ranges from two to five cents, depending on the quality and sweetness.
Since Su Niannian's fruit is of such high quality, I can definitely sell it even if I pay a higher price.
Moreover, Lao Qian wanted to cooperate with Su Niannian in the long term, and he thought that if he offered too little, it would affect the subsequent cooperation.
Such delicious fruit is originally intended for wealthy customers.
and so……
"Then let's make it one yuan per pound for these four kinds of fruit." Old Qian looked at Su Niannian and asked her if the price was acceptable.
“Okay.” Su Niannian naturally felt there was nothing wrong with it.
Su Niannian had also inquired about the price of these fruits on the black market.
The ones in better condition only cost four or five cents, but now that Lao Qian is willing to buy them for one yuan per kilogram, Su Niannian feels that this is already very good.
