"You little brat, Yang Juhua, I'll tell Mother on you later and you two will be in deep trouble."
Li Hehua had no choice but to do it herself.
"Fellow villagers, did you all voluntarily bring your vegetables here to sell?"
Yu Chengyuan scanned the faces of the families queuing up.
The villagers looked at the Yu brothers with embarrassed expressions.
After all, it was Yu Chengyuan and his brother who led everyone to make money all along. Doing this now does seem like crossing the river and burning the bridge, and being ungrateful.
The villagers nodded. "Chengyuan, we did it voluntarily. Nobody forced us."
Yu Chengyuan was quite composed. He smiled slightly and said, "Trading is free, I understand everyone."
But I'm also making this clear: since you've chosen to sell to Yu Sanzhu and his wife today, we won't be buying your vegetables anymore.
He made things clear today, and if they ask him to help sell vegetables again in the future, he won't be willing to.
They came here today without saying a word, and didn't tell him that if he couldn't supply this many vegetables today, he would definitely have to find another way.
If they had said something, he would have had time, but they…
Upon hearing this, Yu Sanzhu immediately retorted sarcastically, "Hmph, I offered a higher price than you, so of course the villagers are willing to sell to me."
"You two offered such low prices, no wonder everyone's coming to me."
Upon hearing this, Yu Chengyuan realized, "So that's how it is! No wonder!"
Well, if he can strive for higher goals, and water flows downhill, he won't force it.
Upon hearing this, the villagers began to criticize the Yu brothers for offering a low price, saying it was not as high as what the Yu Sanzhu couple had offered.
“Chengyuan, it’s really not our fault. Your price was indeed lower than what the Sanzhu couple offered.”
"That's right. We're not targeting anyone on purpose. We just sell to whoever offers the highest price. It's perfectly reasonable, so you two brothers shouldn't blame us."
"That's right, if you offer the same price, I'm willing to sell my vegetables to you."
Looking at everyone, Yu Chengyuan sighed helplessly and said, "I'm not Guanyin Bodhisattva, I can't work for free without earning a penny."
Our family needs to eat and live; we can't just be good people and do unprofitable business.
We, the two brothers, earn our meager earnings through hard work.
We admit that the price we offered was five cents less than what they paid.
But that's all I can offer; I can't offer any more.
If you're willing to sell it to him, then sell it to him. I have no objection!
However, I'll say it again: I won't be taking any more of your vegetables from now on, and please don't look for me.
These people only see immediate benefits, not long-term gains.
Yu Sanzhu and his wife, however, persisted in their sarcasm towards Yu Chengyuan, saying, "You just want to cheat the villagers; you have no good intentions whatsoever."
Yu Chengyuan sneered and bluntly exposed their purpose: "You two just want to start a price war and steal our business, don't you?"
"Fine, I'll wait and see how you handle this."
Yu Chengyuan knew that while Yu Sanzhu and his wife had the ability to buy the vegetables, they might not have the ability to sell them successfully.
After saying these words, Yu Chengyuan did not linger any longer and turned to leave with his younger brother.
After returning to his own courtyard, Yu Chengyuan told the remaining villagers about how Yu Sanzhu and his wife had harvested vegetables, and he also specifically mentioned that the price they paid today was five cents higher per pound than his own.
He looked at his fellow villagers and said sincerely, "If you think the price they offer is right and want to sell your goods there, I will not stop you."
But like I said, once we go to their place, my brother and I will never accept your vegetables again.
After hearing this, a few villagers hesitated for a moment, but in the end they still carried their vegetables to Yu Sanzhu's house.
However, most villagers chose to stay.
Everyone knows that Yu Sanzhu and his wife are petty and their character is questionable, while Yu Chengyuan and his brother have always been honest and trustworthy.
After this little incident, the Yu brothers continued to buy the remaining vegetables as usual.
As they weighed and calculated the accounts, they chatted with the villagers who stayed behind, as if the commotion had never happened.
Yu Chengyuan understood that doing business is all about integrity and longevity.
Although Yu Sanzhu and his wife seem to have the upper hand today, how can one do business by only looking at short-term gains?
Price wars are not a long-term solution, and he believes that his fellow villagers will eventually understand this.
On the way to deliver the vegetables, Yu Pingan asked worriedly, "Little brother, now Yu Sanzhu and his wife are taking business away from us. What are we going to do?"
"Don't worry, brother, they can't sell their vegetables at all."
Yu Chengyuan wasn't worried about this at all.
