slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 137 Sales

"Is this a watermelon?"

Cang Hai took the last cart of watermelons to the elevator, and when someone came up on the first floor, he asked Cang Hai a question.

Cang Hai answered this question several times on the two trips back home, smiling and nodding in response: "It's watermelon!"

Anyway, it's an advertisement for my own melon.

"Good guy, I've never seen a watermelon that grows this big. How much does this one weigh?" Another person in the elevator asked while looking at the watermelon.

Cang Hai replied: "I don't know exactly, but each of these few weighs about [-] jin, and the big one may exceed [-] jin!"

"Wow!"

Cang Hai's words immediately caused several people in the elevator to exclaim.

"Did you buy this watermelon? How much is it per catty?"

When the curiosity was over, someone inquired about the price.

"I planted this melon. I came here today to deliver melons to the 27th floor. Fifteen catties."

"so expensive!"

Upon hearing Cang Hai's quotation, several people in the elevator immediately said one after another.

Cang Hai smiled and replied: "This melon is a new variety, seedless, not the kind of seedless melon whose seeds have not matured. This melon itself has no seeds. This kind of watermelon is divided into male and female. There are no seeds in the soil, and this long-shaped male melon has no seeds... ".

When someone asks, Cang Hai naturally has to introduce him, and try to be as interesting as possible when talking, because no one knows whether the person who asks will be his next client.

"This male melon is so long that it looks quite impressive."

One of them started talking in a nasty tune, which made everyone in the elevator laugh.

"Where did you buy this melon? You can send me one to the office later, and I will try to see if such a big melon tastes good. By the way, I won't give you money if it soaks in the soil," said the man.

Cang Hai smiled and said: "Don't worry, if there is any soaked melon, I will not only refund your money, but also give you an unsoaked melon."

The melon buyer laughed, took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Cang Hai: "This guy knows how to do business, just send it to the address on the card."

"Okay!" Cang Hai said with a smile.

During these two trips, Cang Hai has already received several business cards, all calling him to give me melons. Although they are all one, it is much better than squatting on the street selling melons. Of course, last night was a special event. Under the circumstances, the owner who drives an Audi buys four or five melons at once.

After delivering to the godfather’s company, Cang Hai delivered melons according to the address on the business card, and received another order of business during the delivery process, just like that, after coming and going, Cang Hai sold seven or eight more. A melon, after working for almost an hour, Cang Hai finally delivered the melon.

Back to Qi Feng's company sweating profusely, the little girl at the front desk immediately smiled when she saw Cang Hai and said, "Mr. Cang, our boss is eating in the restaurant, so you can go directly to the restaurant to find him."

"Okay, thank you."

Smiling at the little girl, Cang Hai went directly to the small restaurant of Qifeng Company.

"Sit down and eat!" Seeing Cang Hai walk in, Qi Feng stretched out his finger to the vegetable counter, and signaled Cang Hai to do the cooking.

Cang Hai wasn't too polite, he just took a tray, ordered vegetables and sat next to Qi Feng.

"Is it finished?" Qi Feng asked when he saw Cang Hai sitting down.

"En!" Cang Hai nodded, and took two mouthfuls of rice into his mouth.

Qi Feng's company cooks their own meals. The taste is mediocre but it is clean and hygienic. There are not many dishes, three or four meat dishes and six or seven vegetarian dishes. The standard for each person is two meat and two vegetarian dishes. Soup, which is what a general company looks like.Today's fruit is naturally the watermelon sent by Cang Hai.It's just that Cang Hai came a bit late, and there was only a trash can of melon rind left.

"After dinner, go to the finance department to settle the account. The total is 520 yuan, right?" Qi Feng said.

"Godfather, there aren't that many. This melon is five yuan a catty." Cang Hai knew that the godfather was paying the price he sold, how could he accept this price, so he said immediately.

Qi Feng waved his hand: "As an elder, I can still argue with you about this little money, that's all right, you can take it if you give it to you, this melon is very good for everyone to eat, and I will give it to the next batch of melons when they are ripe." Send a batch over."

Qi Feng just wanted to help his godson, so why would he buy melons from Cang Hai for five yuan a catty? If the melons really cost five yuan a catty, how could he help? Ah, as far as the taste of this melon compares with the melons that are on the market now, anyone will choose this melon instead of those greenhouse melons that are on the market in the morning.

Of course, the price is really expensive, and there must be people who can afford it, but it's rare that people don't feel sorry for eating such expensive melons.

After a few pushes between the two, Cang Hai recognized it.

"How are you doing now? I heard from your godmother that the trees have been planted, and some cattle and sheep have been raised?" Qi Feng chatted with Cang Hai while eating.

Cang Hai nodded: "Well, the trees have been planted, but there is no output yet, and the real output will wait until next year."

Now Cang Hai doesn’t expect melons to sell too much. He’s been in Shanghai for so long, and since he doesn’t sell more than twenty melons, he’s planning to have a peaceful life. Selling melons for fun, as far as Cang Hai can see, his watermelon business can be said to have been hit in the head.

But Cang Hai is not a discouraged person. Anyway, even if the melon is not easy to sell, he will take his time, comforting himself that there will be time for the public to accept it.

In fact, the most important thing is that Canghai is not short of money now. Planting melons is just to find a way for the folks in the village to get rich. As for Canghai who will be later and later, he is not too entangled. Anyway, melons are always promoted. that day.

"Godfather, I want to take my melons to the agricultural fair, are you familiar with this?" Cang Hai asked with his mouth open, remembering the news he saw a few days ago.

After hearing this, Qi Feng asked: "Do you want to participate in the Agricultural Fair? This is a bit troublesome. I can't help here because there is no intersection, and this is a group organized by each province. You have to go to your Northwest Province for activities, but just I think it’s quite difficult, because this thing has a radish and a pit, and the stalls in each province are limited. If you want to grab one, you will definitely not be able to grab it with only watermelon... ".

Qi Feng really knew some things, and told Cang Hai everything he knew.

Cang Hai thought for a while and said, "I'll try it when I go back, but I don't know if I can catch up with this agricultural fair."

"You still want to catch up with this time?" Qi Feng listened to Zhile: "If you can catch up with autumn, you will burn incense and want to catch up with this time. The stalls this time have been divided up long ago. You have a name and a surname." No one can squeeze you out. You can’t even count as cramming. Listen to me and go back and honestly look for ways to see if you can participate in next year’s Agricultural Fair. This time and September you don’t I thought about it, but I couldn’t even think about it.”

Cang Hai scratched his head when he heard this, and thought about it for a while. Is it true? I still know two people here in Shanghai, and I returned to my hometown to deal with those civil servants in the province?Just thinking about Cang Hai makes his brain hurt.

Putting the bad things aside, Cang Hai ate with Qi Feng, and the godfather chatted while eating.

Qi Feng opened his mouth and complained: "Today, this business is getting more and more difficult to do. If you want to start a project, it's not only about advances, it's also a big trouble to ask for money later. Sometimes, I really want to just quit. But there are hundreds of people in the office connected to the factory, and they all count on the company to eat... Business has never been so easy, people have to calm down and take their time, some things can't be solved in a hurry... ...".

Qi Feng saw that there was no one around, so he started talking about business affairs to Cang Hai.

Cang Hai also has a little understanding of this year's economic situation. In fact, this is not a matter of a day or two. Otherwise, the boss of his original company would not be willing to let go of himself as an old employee and hire some newcomers instead.

Of course, Cang Hai also knew a little bit about the original company from his former colleague Liu Li. Zhou Ze, the boss, hired a newcomer with a low salary and did not bring much change to the company's situation. Think about it and you will understand. Although newcomers get less money, they also lack experience. People like Liu Li only want to challenge the company after one or two years. This is not a production line. They can be employed after a few months of training. The most important thing is experience, and novices without experience will make many mistakes.

"I see, I have no problem here, but is your company in serious trouble?" Cang Hai didn't know what to say, so he could only tell Qi Feng like this.

"Now the key is the capital chain. It's easy to talk about the project, but if the capital chain is broken, it will be a big trouble." Qi Feng said with a sigh.

Now who in the society doesn't know that the grandson of the zero-account debtor is in debt. Although Qi Feng owed some money, there are more money that have not been recovered from outside. Some of them are rich and don't want to pay back. Yes, but most of them are those who have no money to pay back. To use the popular words in the circle, the living money in society is getting less and less.

"If you really need something, just tell me, I'll see if I can help," Cang Hai said.

Qi Feng smiled at Cang Hai: "That's what I sighed, money is not as easy to earn now as it was a few years ago. But don't worry, I am still confident to survive this period of time, after all, I have spent more than twenty years It’s not free, the bank also has some trustworthy friends, let’s talk about you, are you going to sell this watermelon like this?”

Qi Feng said that he wanted to ask Cang Hai to borrow money, and to be honest, Qi Feng didn't pay attention to the little money in Cang Hai's hand. From Qi Feng's point of view, after the kid Cang Hai bought a house, he would have 600 yuan left in his pocket. Everything is rare, he talked about this with Cang Hai, this junior, just casually, mainly to remind this child Cang Hai that the road needs to be taken step by step, and the meal needs to be taken in one breath.

How can Cang Hai not understand, and said with a smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter to me whether I have this melon or not. I mainly want to find a way for the folks to get rich, otherwise there will be no one who has been facing the loess for a few lifetimes and has his back to the sky." After a few days of good life, even if you can come out to work now, how many good factories are there?"

Qi Feng nodded with a smile and said: "Okay, you have a higher level, and being rich and righteous is the right way."

"Not to mention, I'm just staring at the three-acre land in my small village. It's not my business when it grows up. Naturally, others will be upset." Cang Hai laughed.
