Director Liu coughed dryly a few times and looked at Xu Qi and the others. "What are you looking at? This is the only price the supply and marketing cooperative is paying for black truffles. Is there something wrong with that?"
Xu Qi was stunned by Director Liu's shamelessness: "Director Liu, you really are worthy of being you."
"Ahem, no problem," Director Liu said without a trace of shame. "It's a good thing you're here too. Let's continue discussing the purchase price of the black truffles."
"That's right." Zhang Bosong agreed, "You still owe the production team over a thousand yuan, and you can use black truffles to pay off your debt."
While speaking, Zhang Bosong intentionally or unintentionally blocked Xu Qi and Lu Chuanbei's gaze from looking towards the bamboo basket.
Unfortunately, Xu Qi went straight for the black truffle when he arrived, and Zhang Bosong's shield could not stop him.
Xu Qi took a step forward and immediately pulled Zhang Bosong aside. He bent down and looked at Song Tiantian: "Tiantian, can I take a look at your black truffle?"
"Sure." Song Tiantian handed over the small basket directly.
Xu Qi gasped as soon as he saw the black truffles in the bamboo basket: "Oh my God, this one must be about six or seven centimeters big, right?"
When they heard this, the fans in the live broadcast room were also excited.
What do you mean by six or seven centimeters?
[If I remember correctly, black truffles over five centimeters are considered premium black truffles, right?]
[Yes, black truffles over five centimeters are premium grade. And judging by the appearance of the black truffles in the basket, they are undoubtedly the best!]
[Oh my god, is this size real? ]
[Hey guys, I'm leaving for Beiyang Village now. No one can stop me from digging for black truffles!]
My shovel and hoe are thirsty! So, if someone gives me a pine forest with black truffles, I'll go and rake it now!
[I guess pine forests elsewhere wouldn't work. After all, it's not the season for black truffles right now. Usually, black truffles would have already rotted and disintegrated by then. Whose black truffles wouldn't ripen until mid-June?]
[So, doesn't that mean only the pine forests of Beiyang Village can produce black truffles that mature in June?]
[The only black truffle that matures in June. When I think of the value of this black truffle, my heart starts to tremble. This is a fortune given by God!]
I'm so tired of envying the people of Beiyang Village! So, are you still in need of a live-in son-in-law in Beiyang Village? Do you think I can do it?
When the topic of envy for Beiyang Village was also on the top of the hot search, Xu Qi had already taken out the small dagger he carried with him with the permission of Song Tiantian and Lu Chuanbei, and carefully cut a knife into the black truffle in his hand.
Under the neat cut surface, a densely interwoven texture of black and white is revealed.
Seeing this, Xu Qi couldn't help but breathe faster. "Wow, such dense texture, it would cost at least a thousand yuan per pound on the market."
"Gurgle" Yang Bai cleared his throat and almost couldn't breathe.
Director Liu looked even more annoyed.
Zhang Bosong refused to give up and said, "Director Xu, the market price is what the market price is, but this is Beiyang Village, and there must be someone who can afford it."
"Me!" Xu Qi blurted out, "I've never encountered such a good black truffle, but now that I see it, there's no way I'll miss it!"
As he spoke, he looked at Song Tiantian with a radiant expression: "Tiantian, how about selling these black truffles you dug to uncle?"
"no."
"Why? Uncle can offer one thousand yuan per pound, or the market price is fine."
Xu Qi had a good plan.
You know, it's not the season for black truffles now, and black truffles of the same quality have been pre-ordered as soon as they came out, so it's never his turn to buy them.
But it’s different now. The black truffle is right in front of us. Even if we buy it at the market price, we will make a profit!
"But I have already planned to use these black truffles to make fried rice." Song Tiantian said generously.
"What? Fried rice?" Xu Qi almost choked when he heard the news for the first time.
"Besides, uncle, you don't have any money now."
Another fierce knife stabbed directly into Xu Qi's heart.
"Of course." Xiangfangnan echoed, "When we came here, all his money and cell phones were confiscated, so he definitely has no money now."
Xu Qi held his chest with a look of dejection: "It hurts!"
"So, Tiantian, you should just sell it to us." Director Liu was still making a final effort. "Besides, you guys don't need so many black truffles to make fried rice, right?"
"No, there are so many of us, I'm afraid this little bit of black truffles won't be enough."
Very good, there is one more person holding his chest.
Fortunately, Song Tiantian followed up and said, "However, I can keep looking. If I find a lot of black truffles, I can share some with you."
"It's not about dividing, it's about selling." Xiangfangnan reminded.
"Yes, yes, yes, I will sell some to you." Song Tiantian nodded quickly.
"As for the price, just follow what Uncle Xu said, follow the market price. Don't lie to us just because we are young." Xiangfangnan said seriously with a stern face.
Hearing this, Director Liu blushed: "Ahem, okay, I'll do as you say."
After happily deciding on the price of the black truffles, Song Tiantian continued to use her excellent sense of smell to search for traces of black truffles in the pine forest.
Xu Qi watched Song Tiantian find the right one, and couldn't help but feel itchy. "It looks like it's easy. Why don't we give it a try?"
Lu Chuanbei: "Um...how about you try it first?"
"Okay, watch me." Xu Qi said, picked up the hoe and started digging at the place he liked.
Of course, whether we can dig it up or not will not stop for now.
After hearing the news that there were black truffles in Beiyang Village, many high-end restaurants quickly brought their people to Beiyang Village.
Especially the purchasing managers from high-end restaurants in City A and City B, they arrived so quickly.
Just like that, several cars with A and B license plates met at the entrance of Beiyang Village.
The people in the car looked at each other. It was great that they were the same people who often clashed in the high-end food market.
After looking at each other, each side was determined to win.
Fang Xiuzhu and He Xuebin, who had just finished clearing their own canal and were preparing to return to the village to rest, saw six or seven high-end luxury cars, which cost at least hundreds of thousands of yuan, parked in the drying yard in front of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"What's going on? Could there be another guest coming?" This was He Xuebin's first reaction when he saw the car.
"Guests should also be treated as nanny cars, right?" Fang Xiuzhu asked doubtfully, "Besides, who would drive such a low-profile car up the mountain?"
Not only were they puzzled, but the fans in the live broadcast room were also curious about the origins of these luxury cars.
Until a few unfamiliar middle-aged faces walked out. When they saw Fang Xiuzhu and the others, they quickly surrounded them.
"Hello, Mr. Fang, Mr. He, where is the pine forest?"
"Mr. Fang, I'm a fan of yours. May I ask where the pine forest is?"
"Dabin, I'm your fan, but is the pine forest far from here?"
Fang Xiuzhu and He Xuebin were startled but puzzled: "Why are you asking about the pine forest?"
"Is there anything in the pine forest?"
[That's right, aren't they just fans of the movie or the music? They come and ask what the heck a pine forest is? Pfft... Okay, I know they're definitely here for the black truffles, but this scene is just too funny!]
Fang Xiuzhu and He Xuebin were completely bewildered. What was going on with these fans? Why were they following them all the way to Beiyang Village? And then... what was going on in Songshulin? Why did my fans start asking this?
[Geese, geese, geese… I almost fainted from laughing! ]
[Oh my goodness, isn't this the purchasing manager from Dingsheng Huatai? Why is he here? Wait, the others look familiar too. Could they also be purchasing managers for some restaurant or hotel?]
[The truth is revealed above. These middle-aged men are purchasing agents for the Hengshi Hotel, as well as purchasing representatives for Xianghui Restaurant, Sein Western Restaurant, and Paulina French Restaurant...]
[Wow, these names are either hotels or Western or French restaurants. Are they all here for black truffles?]
[Of course, besides black truffles, they couldn't have come all this way here!]
[Incredible! They've already arrived in Beiyang Village just moments after discovering the black truffle. If they weren't constantly monitoring trending searches and live streams, how could they react so quickly?]
Fang Xiuzhu and He Xuebin were also a little shocked after knowing the purpose of these people's visit.
"What did you say?"
"Black truffles were found here?"
"And Tiantian discovered it?"
"In the pine forest?"
"That's right, we came here just for this." Manager Qian of Dingsheng Huatai Hotel said hurriedly.
"Yes, so can you tell us how to get to the pine forest?" Manager Wu of the Paulins French Restaurant asked.
Hearing this, He Xuebin and Fang Xiuzhu looked at each other and said to them.
"I'll take you there, but..."
"Is that the price of black truffles?"
"I heard that good black truffles are out of stock right now. Besides, fresh black truffles should be hard to come by in this season, right?"
"If I remember correctly, black truffles are usually harvested between January and March, but now it's mid-to-late June. Could this be a batch of black truffles that only appeared in June?"
"Good boy, isn't that rare."
Under the double act of Fang Xiuzhu and He Xuebin, the hotel managers who were being held captive felt a chill in their hearts. They realized that their hope of purchasing Beiyang Village black truffles at a low price was probably impossible...
