"Just listen to me, and avoid him!"
After Tian Xiaohui finished speaking, the two brothers put their arms around her shoulders and patted her affectionately.
Oh~
Ye Yun nodded as if she understood, and smiled, "But they just got us a super big deal. If it goes through, do you know how much money we can make?"
"How many?"
"We can earn at least three yuan per pound of mung beans. Just think about how many pounds of mung beans a school of students would use, and how much money we could make?"
"Wow..."
Tian Xiaohui was dumbfounded.
A pound of mung beans costs three yuan. How many mung beans can a school use... She hadn't been to school for very long, so she really couldn't figure it out!
But she knew there would definitely be more!
Tian Xiaohui excitedly grabbed Ye Yun's arm, her eyes shining, and said, "Then, sister-in-law, let's kick him out after we finish this deal!"
Ye Yun's lips twitched.
No, you've got a pretty good plan, haven't you?
Seeing Tian Xiaohui happily going to pack mung bean cakes for the new customer, Ye Yun watched Tan Zongguang's departing figure and cautiously narrowed her eyes.
Something's not right.
She couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong, but she was puzzled as to how such a big deal had fallen into her lap.
She had heard of some scams before.
For example, like her situation.
She was doing business honestly when a big order suddenly came in. She was overjoyed and became careless. With just a few words from the other party, she excitedly went to purchase raw materials. However, the raw materials were very expensive, so she had to pay for them herself first. After she spent all her money and even borrowed money to buy the raw materials, the person who ordered her mung bean cakes disappeared!
So, her mung bean cakes were destined to be a disaster.
She, on the other hand, will lose everything.
This seemingly simple scam has harmed many business owners in later generations.
Moreover, Tan Zongguang did not give her any documents.
For large-scale procurements like those made by schools, a formal document is usually required to ensure proper procedures.
She didn't think anyone would go to such lengths to harm her, but she still didn't dare to let her guard down. After all, before Xu Tianqiang appeared, she hadn't expected anyone to come and disrupt her business.
Ye Yun decided to go and take a look first.
After selling out of the thin rice cakes and mung bean cakes, Ye Yun kept two portions of mung bean cakes and, together with Tian Xiaohui, went to the address given by Tan Zongguang.
The address is indeed near the school.
It was a fairly large farmhouse courtyard, spacious inside, with some grain drying on the ground and a row of grain jars about half a person's height, which indeed looked like a place where grain was sold.
Is anyone there?
Ye Yun called out.
Someone in the main room seemed to have heard the noise. Soon, an old man wearing a hat, who looked to be in his sixties, lifted the curtain.
The old man, with his old pipe dangling from his lips, looked Ye Yun up and down with a shrewd, wary gaze.
"Grandpa! We've come to buy mung beans!"
Ye Yun took the initiative to introduce herself and even smiled politely.
After hearing her self-introduction, the old man's guard relaxed a little, but he didn't look much better. He glanced at Ye Yun and then walked towards the row of grain jars that were half a person tall next to him.
"I know you were introduced by Xiao Tan."
ah?
Ye Yun was surprised, but nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, Teacher Tan introduced me."
"Hmm." The old man spoke indifferently, his aloof attitude revealing his bad temper, like a stern old man. As he walked, he said, "Mung beans are 85 cents a pound. Take a look, buy them if you like them, otherwise forget it."
Forehead……
Who does business like this?
Wait, it's so expensive?
The strange old man looked like he was not to be trifled with and didn't seem to care about the deal at all. He casually opened a granary that was half a person's height, grabbed a handful of mung beans, and intended to show them to Ye Yun.
Ye Yun quickly went over.
The mung beans are well preserved and look better than the mung beans I usually buy. But isn't the price a bit too expensive?
Ye Yun smiled and said, "Grandpa, mung beans outside are only seven or eight cents a pound..."
"Buy it or leave. I won't force you to make this sale!"
The old man was indeed difficult to talk to. As soon as he saw that Ye Yun did not want to accept the price, he waved his hand and turned to walk into the house.
He clearly didn't want to do business anymore.
"Hmph, it's the time when mung beans are being planted, and they're hard to find outside. If you don't want this old man, then go find some outside..."
Ye Yun was stunned again.
Tian Xiaohui gently tugged at her hand and whispered, "Sister-in-law, this person is so expensive, could he be a scammer..."
Ye Yun pondered for two seconds.
Before the old man entered the house, she quickly called out, "Sir, would you like me to weigh out five catties of mung beans first?"
Give me five jin first, let's see how it goes.
Not to mention the mung beans she needs to stock up on at school, she also needs to stock up on mung beans at home in case she can't buy them later and can't set up her stall.
It's the season for planting mung beans now, but the harvest won't be until August or September.
It's also possible that the old man was trying to raise the price on the spot.
The old man glanced at Ye Yun with great displeasure, finally sighed, took a cloth bag from the side, and scooped a few ladles of mung beans from the grain jar into the bag.
"If you hadn't been introduced by Xiao Tan, I wouldn't have bothered with this little thing. Take it, take it!"
The old man shoved the mung beans into Ye Yun's hand, then turned and went back into the house.
Ye Yun handed the mung beans to Tian Xiaohui first. Just as she took out her money, she saw that the old man had already closed the door. She quickly went up to him and called out, "Grandpa! I haven't given you your money yet!"
