Holy crap, that's brutal.
She thought she was already being greedy by adding two cents, but this woman cut her off by a whole dollar.
Sang Ning's lips twitched slightly. "We can't sell it at this price; it doesn't even cover the costs."
Pointing to the crowd working under the scorching sun, she said, "Sister, look at them. The price I gave you didn't even include labor costs."
How much did you say?
"3 pieces."
"That definitely won't work."
So, after a heated debate, both sides compromised and settled on 2.8 yuan.
BlueBlue will cover the shipping costs.
Both parties are satisfied with this price; it's within their own acceptable range.
The transaction was thus successfully completed.
The watermelons are available immediately after harvesting and can be delivered right away.
Therefore, three days later, the first batch of five million tons of watermelons was loaded onto the express delivery group's transport starship and sent to Azure.
The remaining watermelons have also found owners, all of whom are Azure's business associates scattered across various political planets.
While her friends eagerly awaited their delivery, the Jade Melon from planet E72 ignited a sales frenzy on the planet where Azure Blue lived.
Five million tons of watermelons may seem like a lot, but when spread across a planet, it's actually not much.
Therefore, in less than three days, her five million tons of watermelons were sold out, making her a fortune.
“(⊙o⊙)…”
Sang Ning, upon receiving another message from her requesting goods, said helplessly, "Sister, we're out of stock now."
"No, you're out of watermelons now?"
“There used to be, but didn’t you introduce me to some friends to take care of me?”
With a helpless expression, Sang Ning spread his hands and said, "Your friends have divided up the rest of the watermelons."
The implication is that she genuinely doesn't have any watermelons for her right now.
Wei Lanlan felt like dying. As a competent businesswoman, the pain of knowing you can make money but not being able to is too torturous.
However, she was the one who introduced the person, and Sang Ning's side is out of stock. What should we do now?
She frowned and pondered for a long time, then her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Let me contact my friend first."
If Sang Ning can't think of a solution, she can try to find one through her friends.
Without waiting for Sang Ning's reply, she decisively cut off the projection.
Sang Ning roughly knew what she wanted to do, but she felt it was impossible to succeed.
Qin Heng laughed and said, "Miss Wei has miscalculated."
Lois hummed in agreement. "No one in business is not shrewd, and they are especially sensitive to making money. Besides, information is so readily available these days, the news that watermelons are a huge hit over there must have spread like wildfire."
"In this situation, it's no wonder they would agree to forcibly tear a piece of flesh from her friends."
Indeed, nobody agrees; nobody's stupid.
It's also impossible to share the vested interests.
Admittedly, the reason they bought Sang Ning's watermelons was indeed because of the connection made by Wei Lanlan, and they will remember this favor.
But if they wanted them to give up a portion of their share for her, they wouldn't even open a crack in the window, let alone a door.
No one complains about earning too much money, and they feel perfectly justified in doing so.
It wasn't obtained through theft or fraud; it was bought back with real money and the profit was simply earned from the price difference.
Therefore, it's impossible for me to give in; it's never going to happen in this lifetime.
Azure blue, "..."
Wei Lanlan, who had created a group chat, was speechless. "Are they really so heartless as to not let me have even a little bit?"
"No."
in unison.
Wei Lanlan chuckled. Very well, these guys forced her to unleash her ultimate move.
"Since they won't allow it, then the quantity of top-quality flowers will be reduced next year."
"Damn, this is so unethical!"
My friends were in an uproar.
It's important to know that they have a limited quantity of top-quality flowers available each year.
And each plant was ordered well in advance. Now they're telling them to reduce the quantity? What the hell are they going to tell their customers?
Wei Lanlan snorted, "You were the ones who lacked sportsmanship first. I was trying to help you make money with good intentions, and you wouldn't even give me a share."
"Since you are so heartless and ruthless, why should I talk to you about martial ethics?"
She threatened him with a straight face, "Either one of you gives up some of your share so I can make some money, or you take fewer flowers from me next year and make less money. You choose."
The friends looked at each other, wondering if there was even a need to choose.
They weren't given any choice at all.
"I can give you 200,000 tons."
Once the first person spoke up, the rest had no choice but to agree.
Then, Wei Lanlan successfully tore off some meat from each of her friends, adding up to two million tons, which was certainly not comparable to the previous amount, but she was still satisfied.
From then on, everyone was happy.
After learning what had happened, Sang Ning and the others fell silent.
It was a miscalculation; it turns out that Wei Lanlan's friends and she had formed a chain of interests.
It's perfectly normal for people in a chain of interests to tear off a piece of flesh.
In business, if you earn less on the east side and more on the west side, you basically break even.
Furthermore, 200,000 tons per person is really not much compared to the total amount of all the friends.
It's no wonder that Azure Blue is making a fortune.
Thinking of this, Sang Ning smiled and said, "I'll contact the courier company right away and make sure it's shipped out for you before 3 p.m. tomorrow."
"Okay, I'm waiting for your watermelon."
Wei Lanlan beamed with joy, and Sang Ning nodded, "I promise I won't let you down, sister."
As she spoke, she prepared to say goodbye and hang up the phone, as she had other things to do.
But unexpectedly—
