Xia Anyan's lips twitched.
Damn it, this man is taking advantage of her.
Xia Anyan took a deep breath, pouted, and said somewhat reluctantly, "You want me to call you uncle, so when you do business with me, will you try to lower my price? Then you'll come back and say that because we're such good friends, you can't give me a high price."
“My parents said that some people will try to take advantage of me because I am young, so I can’t listen to others and I can’t lower the price.”
The bear boss was amused by Xia Anyan's cute appearance.
The little guy is quite young, but his temperament suits him well.
He was quite old, and ever since his wife and children were killed by a bear in the mountains a few years ago, he had never looked for another woman or had any more children.
Now, upon seeing Xia Anyan, he felt a desire to tease her.
He smirked: "Little girl, do you know what the consequences will be if you talk to me like that?"
"If you make me angry, you won't be leaving here today, and your parents and the goods they have won't be safe either."
Xia Anyan was a little angry, and put her hands on her hips: "You can't just bully me like this because you're the black market boss and have money and connections."
“I’m not easily intimidated. I’ve suffered before, and I’m quite strong. If you bully me, I’ll fight back.”
Boss Xiong was amused and laughed heartily, and even the people around him were amused.
Such a tiny little girl, and she's already thinking about rebelling.
If they really wanted to keep her here, she would never have had the chance to stand here and speak.
They still wanted to resist; I don't know what they were thinking.
Boss Xiong waved his hand, and someone brought a stool for Xia Anyan.
"Alright, I'm not that kind of person. I, Boss Xiong, am a well-known figure in this black market. I've done so much business with people and I've never had a falling out with anyone."
"Since you're here to talk business, let's sit down and have a proper discussion. Also, tell me what kind of goods you have and at what prices."
"Let me make this clear from the start: don't think that just because you're a young girl I won't do anything to you. If you're trying to deceive me, you'd better not say anything now and get out of here, or I won't let you off the hook."
Boss Xiong deliberately put on a stern face to scare Xia Anyan.
Xia Anyan pouted: "I wouldn't lie, everything I said is true."
"You don't need to scare me. If I can't produce those things, you can't give me the money, right?"
That's a clever one.
The more Xiong Laoda looked at it, the more satisfied and pleased he became.
This little girl has pretty eyes, but her skin is really hard to look at.
He felt uncomfortable listening to a young girl always speaking in a "me me me" tone.
If she were fairer-skinned and spoke a little more gently, he would really like to adopt a goddaughter.
The two sat at the negotiating table, surrounded by many other people.
They were all listening to Xia Anyan's conversation with Boss Xiong.
Xia Anyan didn't deliberately raise the price; she simply quoted the same price as Tie Tou's.
Wheat was 30 cents, corn was 18 cents, rice was 35 cents, flour was 38 cents, and potatoes and sweet potatoes were 10 cents.
Xiong Laoda looked at Xia Anyan, hesitatingly asking, "Little girl, do you have any meat?"
"Your price isn't cheap. Rice here only sells for four cents a pound at most. If I give you three and a half cents, I'll only make five cents a pound. How much can I make from a thousand pounds? You're asking for the moon."
Xia Anyan wasn't worried at all; in fact, she even smiled and said, "Boss Xiong, you won't lose out on this price."
“My products are good. If we mix in some cheap rice that doesn’t sell for much, we’ll still have plenty of people buying them for 40 cents a pound.”
"If your people were a little more unscrupulous, they could sell my family's fine rice for five cents a pound, and people would still buy it."
Boss Xiong frowned as he looked at the little girl in front of him, completely unexpected that she would say such a thing.
But upon closer reflection, it's understandable.
If she couldn't speak, how could she have been sent here?
What kind of place is this? This is the black market! It's no exaggeration to say that they'd eat people alive.
The fact that her parents were willing to let a little girl like her come over can only mean that this girl's abilities are definitely more than what she has shown so far.
Boss Xiong even considered keeping the person in the black market.
As soon as Xia Anyan saw Xiong Laoda's expression, she roughly guessed what he wanted to do.
She cleared her throat and said, "Boss Xiong, do you acknowledge what I just said? If you're not willing to cooperate with me, I'll leave right now. Don't worry, once I leave this room today, it'll be as if I never came."
Boss Xiong tapped his fingers on the table.
He didn't say anything to let people leave, so of course the people here wouldn't move aside.
Surrounded by such a large group of people, Xia Anyan's face showed fear and panic.
That's more like it.
Boss Xiong chuckled.
The girl was so calm just now that he began to wonder if she was sent by his enemy.
But everything she could produce was genuine.
"Alright, little girl, since you want to cooperate with me, then show some sincerity."
"You haven't answered my question yet. Do you have meat where you are?"
Xia Anyan looked inside the space; it was indeed suitable for raising animals.
However, she couldn't get her hands on those things.
After all, it was really difficult for a capitalist's daughter, who was powerless, to leave the family compound and go to the back mountain on her own, while avoiding the eyes and ears of those people.
Seeing that she remained silent, Boss Xiong roughly guessed what she meant.
If Xia Anyan can really produce meat, then she probably won't be able to leave this black market today.
Fortunately, she wasn't that 'all-powerful,' which is why she was spared.
"At this time tomorrow, you need to send 100 jin of polished rice and 100 jin of wheat flour over so I can check the quality. If the quality is up to standard, we can sign the agreement."
"I'm a man of my word. As long as the quality of what you bring in the future is the same as what you brought, I guarantee you won't suffer any losses."
Xia Anyan smiled and bowed to Boss Xiong: "Uncle, I knew you were a good person."
"I'll go back and tell my dad right now. My home is quite close to here, so we don't need to wait until tomorrow. I'll have my dad bring it over soon."
After she finished speaking, she turned and ran outside. When she saw the people blocking the door, she turned back to look at Boss Xiong.
Boss Xiong waved his hand: "Let her go."
After Xia Anyan left, someone approached her and asked, "Brother Xiong, do we really not need to send someone to follow her?"
This little girl seems a bit strange no matter how you look at her.
