Chapter 44: Sky-high Price of Milk Powder
The owner of Sanhe Homes finally gave in, and this time it was Xu Dong who pulled Mr. Wang to the corridor. Read
"Mr. Wang, based on your intuition, do you think this is Mr. Cai's bottom price?" Xu Dong asked softly.
"I think it should be about right. 6.65 million is already much lower than the market price. Mr. Xu, if you are really interested, I advise you to take it as soon as possible. The housing market is getting hotter day by day."
Mr. Wang certainly wanted to reach an agreement as soon as possible to avoid more trouble, so his attitude was very positive.
Xu Dong thought about it for a while, and went back to the house to discuss it with Xu's mother and others. Under his strong persuasion, the house was finally bought.
He usually has to go to work, and he doesn't have much time to look at houses. It's better not to toss it. Anyway, the family is not short of hundreds of thousands of yuan.
After negotiating the price, the two sides quickly signed the purchase contract. Xu Dong transferred a deposit of 200,000 on the spot, and the next thing was handled by the agent.

If you want to get the real estate certificate, you need to wait at least ten days or half a month.
"Mr. Wang, please hurry up with the review here. I am in a hurry to use the house here." Xu Dong asked before leaving.
"I understand, Mr. Xu, don't worry, I will definitely help you keep an eye on it." Mr. Wang promised.
"Thank you very much!"
"You're welcome, this is what we should do."
...
After getting the house, Yu Dong once again lived a leisurely life comparable to that of a rice bug.
However, there are also many trivial matters. Just after lunch, Gao Yuemei came to ask about the progress of milk powder.
"Xiao Xu, Xiao Xu..."
"Sister Gao, why are you here? Hurry up and blow the electric fan. Look at you sweating. You should hold an umbrella when you come out."
Xu Dong quickly put away his mobile phone. He was too focused on it just now.
"Sister Gao, I'm not hot." Gao Yuemei wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.
Xiao Wang poured a glass of water for Gao Yuemei: "Sister Gao, drink some water."
"Thank you, Xiao Wang."
Gao Yuemei took the cup of water, but did not drink it. Instead, she looked at Xu Dong anxiously, her eyes full of expectation.
Xu Dong couldn't stand this, and quickly explained:
"Sister Gao, I asked about the milk powder for you, and it is indeed out of stock now."
Sister Gao's face darkened quickly, looking like a desperate old woman.
Xu Dong didn't dare to beat around the bush anymore, and changed the subject and said: "But..."
"But what?" Gao Yuemei's eyes rekindled hope.
"But there should be stock next week."
Gao Yuemei patted her chest and exclaimed: "It's okay to have milk powder, and I don't need these few days."
She was completely helpless. The little grandson just refused to eat. She tried rice soup and batter, but nothing worked.
If she can't find milk powder again, she will have to shamelessly ask other mothers for milk, but this is not a long-term solution after all, and weaning is inevitable.
Xu Dong nodded, and then hesitantly said: "It's just... Sister Gao, this... price may be a little... expensive."
"How expensive?" Gao Yuemei's heart skipped a beat, and she was ready to be ripped off.
"The milk powder is an imported brand-name milk powder, and one can costs 8,000 yuan."
Xu Dong raised the price of milk powder by more than ten times in a flash. He didn't want to take advantage of others, but if he didn't offer a high price, he wouldn't scare away those people.
There are a total of 100 boxes of baby milk powder in his warehouse, a total of 600 cans, half of which are the food for the triplets in the next three years.
After three years, this batch of milk powder will almost expire.
In other words, Xu Dong has 300 cans of surplus, which can be used for trading.
Although the number is not small, it can only supply 10 babies for a year at most.
Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better to speak directly with the price. Whoever has the higher price will get the milk powder, so as not to make things difficult for yourself.
Gao Yuemei was really shocked. The price was really exaggerated.
But fortunately, their whole family worked in state-owned enterprises and their economic conditions were not bad. 8,000 yuan was not an unacceptable number. They gritted their teeth and bought it.
"Can I buy a few more cans?"
Xu Dong thought about it and thought it would not be good to give too much, as it would make him look too capable. He couldn't do that, so he sighed and said, "At most two cans, there is also a shortage of stock over there."
"Two cans are fine, Xiao Xu, you are busy, big sister." Gao Yuemei hurriedly thanked.
Xu Dong waved his hand, "I am just a middleman. The key is to see if there is stock over there."
"Thank you again, Xiao Xu, big sister will transfer the money to you now."
"Sister Gao, let's wait until the milk powder arrives, don't rush." Xu Dong immediately refused.
"That's fine!"
Not long after Gao Yuemei left, Section Chief Li called again and told him to collect his salary slip. Today is May 6, the day when the power company pays salaries.
"Dong Dong Dong..."
"Come in!"
"Uncle Li, I'm here."
Section Chief Li handed the salary slip to Xu Dong without any nonsense, and said casually: "You joined the company on the 12th of last month, and you worked a total of 18 days in April. Do you think I'm right?"
"Yes, I started working on the 12th."
Xu Dong took the salary slip and first looked at the total salary.
"Wow", 10,600 yuan, far exceeding expectations.
Looking at it, Xu Dong soon found something wrong, so he asked:
"Uncle Li, I only worked 18 days last month, how come there is full attendance here? Is it a mistake?"
Section Chief Li shook his head and explained: "You can't get full attendance in your situation, but I specially marked the reason for you, so it's okay."
"Thank you, Uncle Li." Xu Dong hurriedly thanked him. After all, it was 1,200 yuan, which was totally worth a thank you.
"Okay, if there is no problem, you can go back to work!"
Xu Dong hummed a little tune and returned to the north gate. Although the salary was not much, it was earned by him day by day, and he still felt a sense of accomplishment.
"Brother Xu, how much is the salary?" Xiao Wang asked.
"A little over 10,000. If you work for a full month, you should be able to get about 17 or 18,000." Xu Dong replied.
Xiao Huang enviously said, "If I could get half of it, I would be so happy."
"Young man, don't talk about life and death. More than 10,000 yuan is not a high salary. As long as you are willing to work hard, there are many opportunities to make a lot of money."
After all, he was young and confused, so Xu Dong was still happy to encourage young people.
In addition, the world today is experiencing a major change that has not been seen in a thousand years. As long as you are willing to endure hardships and have the ability, there will be opportunities to succeed everywhere in the future.
In Xu Dong's previous life, if he had not been too concerned about his family, he would have gone out to make a living.
"Brother Xu, you are a full man who doesn't know the hunger of the hungry. If we had the opportunity, we would not come here to be security guards." Xiao Wang smiled bitterly.
Xiao Cheng even echoed, "What struggle? I used to run express delivery and deliver takeout, but in the end, it's better to be a security guard."
"Okay, okay." Xu Dong waved his hand, "I can't explain it clearly now, you will understand it later."
