Ling Tian thought it over. Although the price of selling goods on his own would be much higher, how much sales could he achieve alone? It would be better to earn less and find someone to work with. This way, he would be able to recoup his funds faster. Liu Fusheng was undoubtedly the best candidate.
"Uncle Liu, I see your business is pretty good. I happen to have some winter melons. How about giving them 2.20 yuan?"
"So you're a vegetable vendor too." Liu Fusheng took a puff of his cigarette, glanced at Ling Tian and said, "Sorry, I have a regular supplier."
He is not stupid. It may seem a little cheaper, but it is not good in the long run. It is better to do business with the familiar than to do business with the new one. Besides, you cannot cooperate casually without understanding the other party.
Ling Tian guessed his concerns and immediately lowered his voice to launch a powerful move, "Two yuan, and in large quantities. This market is so big, I believe you know a lot of people. If you sell it..."
He didn't say the rest of the words. They are all smart business people and know what to do.
"Let me take a look at the goods first."
Ling Tian smiled when he heard this. It was obvious that Liu Fusheng was moved.
"Okay, this way."
Soon, Ling Tian brought Liu Fusheng to his small truck. The moment he opened the door, he had quietly taken out several hundred kilograms of wax gourd from the space and placed it in the car.
"Uncle Liu, please take a look."
Liu Fusheng was not polite either. He picked up a wax gourd and looked at it, then put it down in less than a few seconds. For him, just one glance was enough to judge the quality of vegetables.
After checking several wax gourds in a row, Liu Fusheng nodded with satisfaction.
"The melon is good, but the quantity is too small." It was obvious that he was not very interested in the quantity. With such a small amount and little money to earn, it would be better not to take it and save trouble.
"Uncle Liu, of course it's more than this amount. If that was the case, I wouldn't have come to you. More than 3,000 kilograms, how about this amount? If you can use it up quickly, there will be more tomorrow."
"It's a little less, but it's okay. I'll take this batch first, and you can send the rest over quickly."
"Okay."
Seeing that Ling Tian didn't have any tools, Liu Fusheng had to go back and push over a large scale and several large plastic baskets. "I can tell you're a newbie. You need to be prepared with these tools to do this job."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Liu, this is indeed my first time. Please bear with me."
Liu Fusheng was a pretty nice guy. He explained a lot of rules and even told him the prices of some vegetables purchased from the source for his reference.
Ling Tian is also very good at handling things. He rounded off the digits from the 527 kilograms of wax gourds just now and settled the bill at 500 kilograms.
"Uncle Liu, please wait here for a moment. I'll go get the rest."
After receiving the payment, Ling Tian drove out for a drive to avoid suspicion.
After about ten minutes, he found a secluded place to park the car, then slipped into the car. With a wave of his hand, all the wax gourds in the space appeared neatly in the car.
Although more than 500 pounds were lost, the remaining weight still made the shock absorbers rattle.
When I returned to my previous position, Liu Fusheng was already waiting there, with a middle-aged man beside him.
"Boss Ling, let me introduce you. This is Liu Yuan, the store manager of Leading Fresh Supermarket. Manager Liu, this is the Boss Ling I was talking about."
Seeing that the two men were somewhat similar, Ling Tian had guessed that they must be related by blood. As for why Liu Fusheng introduced a fresh food supermarket manager to him, it was really a bit puzzling.
"Hello, Manager Liu."
"Hello, Boss Ling. Let me be frank. You can offer this price for wax gourd, which means you have your own first-hand channels. Our store has just expanded its market and the supply chain is insufficient. We want to find more stable partners, so I want to understand the scale of your business."
"How about we complete this deal first and discuss the next steps later?"
"Yeah, yeah, look at my impatience."
Liu Fusheng called a few helpers to start weighing, but Liu Yuan walked aside and showed no intention of helping.
Ling Tian was busy thinking at the same time. He had no channel at all, but he also felt that this was an opportunity, so he kept it secret for the time being and would make plans after they talked about it.
After about ten minutes, the entire truckload of winter melons had been weighed. After receiving the payment, Ling Tian showed a long-lost smile. This was the first money he earned after his rebirth. Although it was not much, it was of great significance.
"Manager Liu, how about we go over there and have some tea and talk?"
Ling Tian pointed to a breakfast shop across the street. Although it was not a high-end restaurant, it was the only option given the current limited conditions. It was better than standing and chatting, and he was a little hungry.
"OK!"
"Brother, Boss Ling, go and talk. I have a lot of things to do here."
Liu Yuan nodded. It was indeed inconvenient for Liu Fusheng to be around while he was discussing something with Ling Tian.
The two of them found a deserted corner seat, ordered a few breakfast items and started chatting about family matters. They didn't talk about their cooperation right away and were both very patient.
After a while, when the two had finished their breakfast, Ling Tian was the first to speak, "Manager Liu, I have the supply, and the quantity is not small. I wonder what the price is over there?"
Ling Tian lied without blushing or beating his heart. After all, bragging costs nothing, so he would listen to what the other party said first. If it was profitable, it would not be too late to make plans. Even if a verbal agreement was reached, he could withdraw at any time.
"Add me on WeChat and I'll send you a form for your reference."
"Use this."
Ling Tian got a pen and paper from somewhere, which made Liu Yuan look at him in amazement. Why would he need a pen and paper when WeChat is so convenient? He must be so bored.
It's really unfair to Ling Tian. He doesn't have a smart phone at all. Now he only has an old-fashioned phone that can only receive calls and messages.
"Looks like I'll have to buy one in a couple of days. It's inconvenient to trade every time."
While Ling Tian was thinking, Liu Yuan had already written densely on the paper. After a while, he stopped, pushed it over, picked up the teacup and started sipping it. He didn't seem to be in a hurry.
Ling Tian picked it up and frowned as he looked at the price list on it. It was not that the price was too harsh, but that he had written two prices, and the difference was only three or five cents.
He glanced at Liu Yuan who was leisurely drinking tea, and suddenly thought of something, and smiled knowingly. No wonder they would look for someone like him who had no basis for cooperation. It was probably because the profit margin was compressed too low and there were not many people to cooperate with him.
"Manager Liu, please leave me your phone number. I'll discuss this with them and give you a reply as soon as possible. However, I want the payment to be settled on a daily basis."
After hearing Ling Tian's reply, Liu Yuan was very confident that he could achieve cooperation, but the issue of daily settlement made him feel troubled.
moment!
Liu Yuan made a decision.
"Can."
Ling Tian smiled and extended his hand to shake Liu Yuan's. "I'll call you tonight. I believe we will have a pleasant cooperation."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
