Chapter 354 Friendship Shop

After Gu Sinian and Ming Dai drove out of the rest home, they headed towards the Friendship Store in Beijing.

When passing by the post office on the way, Mingdai called Tian Fei and told her the news that she had arrived in Beijing.

When we arrived at the door of Friendship Store, the Tian sisters were already waiting there.

Seeing Mingdai getting off the truck, Tian Li was so excited that she rushed over screaming and wanted to hug Mingdai.

Gu Sinian watched her movements, worried that she might bump into someone, so before he could rush over, he grabbed Mingdai and lifted her by the waist to move her to the other side.

"ah?!"

Tian Li's eyes blurred, she felt lonely and almost fell down.

She glared disapprovingly at the tall man who was holding Mingdai, leaving her with nothing: "Who are you?!"

Gu Sinian lowered his head and looked at Mingdai expectantly: "Mingdai, who am I?"

Ming Dai glared at him and said, "Behave yourself!"

He then introduced the Tian sisters: "This is my girlfriend Gu Sinian, this is Tian Fei, and this is Tian Li."

Gu Sinian smiled happily when he heard the satisfactory answer.

Is this the first time Ming Dai introduces herself seriously? !

"Yes! I am Mingdai's boyfriend Gu Sinian, hello!"

Tian Li and Tian Fei: . . . . . .

Ming Dai covers her face!

Tian Li pulled Ming Dai aside, hesitating to say, "You like him..."

Ming Dai took a deep breath and said, "He is in a normal state of mind, but he is a little crazy. I understand."

Tian Li finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Haha, I was wondering how you could possibly find a partner with a mental disorder, hahaha!"

Gu Sinian stood beside the truck and said quietly: "I can hear..."

Tian Fei hurried forward, glared at her sister, said sorry to Gu Sinian, and changed the subject.

"Mingdai, you came here in person this time. Is there anything else besides delivering the goods?"

Ming Dai smiled and nodded: "Yes, we have established a fruit and vegetable cooperative in Liujiawan, and we want to ask Friendship Store if they want fresh strawberries."

“Fresh strawberries?!!”

Tian Fei raised her voice unconsciously and her eyes widened.

Mingdai smiled and nodded, motioning to Gu Sinian.

Gu Sinian immediately climbed onto the car and took down a few boxes.

The outside of the box was still covered with the familiar colorful headscarf. When it was untied, it turned out to be a very delicate wooden box. When it was opened, there was a thick layer of cotton on top. When the cotton was pushed aside, nine big red strawberries were revealed.

The strawberries were very fresh, giving off a sweet aroma. Tian Li couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Ming Dai smiled and picked up one and handed it over: "Try it."

Tian Li couldn't wait to take it and put it in her mouth: "Wow! It's delicious!!"

Mingdai gave Tian Fei another pill, and Tian Fei ate it and praised it highly.

"Mingdai, you guys in Liujiawan are amazing! You can still grow fresh strawberries in the middle of winter!!"

Ming Dai nodded with a smile: "Yes, winter strawberries have become our specialty in Liujiawan. This time I came here, in addition to delivering goods, I also want to ask the general manager if Friendship Store wants strawberries. I brought the last batch of strawberries here. If you don't want them, I will find a way to give them to someone else."

Tian Fei nodded immediately: "Yes, of course! Even if my dad doesn't want it, I still want it!"

This is something that is hard to come by. If you give it as a gift, it will definitely be the only one in Beijing. Don’t be too proud!

"Well, you come with me to see dad first. If he doesn't want it, I'll take it no matter how much it is! If he wants it, give me 10 boxes and I'll use it as a gift."

Ming Dai nodded: "No problem."

Tian Fei excitedly took Mingdai and Gu Sinian to the general manager's office of the Friendship Store and met her father Tian Yongzhang.

Tian Yongzhang was very enthusiastic when he saw Ming Dai: "This is Doctor Ming, hello! I've wanted to see you for a long time, but I never had the chance. Today I finally see you! Welcome, please sit down. Xiaoli, go get some coffee!"

No wonder he was excited. Mingdai’s Porcelain Beauty Anti-acne Mask single-handedly supported half of the cosmetics counter, especially a large order before Christmas this year, which allowed him to easily achieve this year’s foreign exchange target. He was sure to become an advanced unit this year!

So, to some extent, Mingdai can be considered as his little god of wealth!

Ming Xiaocaishen took a sip of coffee and was very satisfied with its mellow taste.

Upon seeing this, Tian Yongzhang immediately told his little daughter to get some and bring it to Mingdai later.

Mingdai did not refuse, she took out the strawberry gift box and put it on the table.

Tian Fei has just explained the situation. Tian Yongzhang doesn't quite believe that there are still strawberries in this season. Even if there are, they are small strawberries of poor quality and the taste is definitely not that good.

But for Mingdai's sake, I still have to take a look.

When he saw the big, red strawberries in the box, he was also shocked.

"Did you really grow this in the middle of winter?"

Ming Dai smiled and said, "Yes, this is the latest research result of our village. The quantity this year is limited, but we will be able to supply it in large quantities next year."

“Or is it the research results?”

Ming Dai nodded proudly: "Of course, do you think we grew it ourselves?

How is that possible!

This was developed by the Heilongjiang Province Crop Research Institute at the cost of countless people's hard work.

We in Liujiawan were fortunate to be selected as a pilot village. We spent several years working hard on planting strawberries. Only this year did we truly master the winter strawberry planting technology and obtain a small amount of strawberries.

It can be said that the gold content of this strawberry is very high!

If it wasn't so precious, I wouldn't have brought it all the way from Heilongjiang to Beijing, right?"

Gu Sinian looked at Mingdai, who was lying seriously, with his eyes full of affection.

Tian Yongzhang and the Tian sisters looked at the strawberries in the box again and suddenly felt so high-class that they couldn't afford to eat them.

Tian Yongzhang cleared his throat and said, "They are indeed very valuable. How much do you plan to sell these strawberries to the Friendship Store for?"

Ming Dai picked up a strawberry and handed it over: "Mr. Tian, ​​try it first. Just because it looks good doesn't necessarily mean it tastes good. I'll quote you a price if you like it. If you don't think it tastes good, I won't quote you a price and will leave immediately!"

Tian Yongzhang thought so too, took the strawberry and took a bite.

Hmm!

Sweet and sour, juicy!

It’s so delicious!!

Mingdai looked at his surprised expression and knew that the matter was settled.

Sure enough, after Tian Yongzhang finished eating the strawberries, he looked at Ming Dai with burning eyes: "Doctor Ming, please give us a price. We want this batch of strawberries from the Friendship Store! See how much you can give us?!"

Ming Dai's eyes flashed with cunning: "Boss Tian, ​​our strawberry production this year is not high. We brought them to Beijing just to test the waters, so we can only provide you with 300 boxes in the first year."

"300 boxes?"

Tian Yongzhang calculated it and found that it was indeed a little too little, but it was understandable.

"300 boxes is 300 boxes. We want them all!"

Ming Dai smiled and nodded: "Okay! You also know how rare strawberries are in winter, so the price will not be low.

The supply price to Friendship Mall is $9 per box."

"hiss!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Tian family members all took a deep breath.

Tian Li exclaimed: "It's so expensive?! It's more expensive than imported chocolate!"

Tian Yongzhang also frowned. This price was far beyond his budget.

Only Tian Fei remained silent. She also thought it was expensive, but Mingdai must have her reasons for offering such a high price.

Before the Porcelain Beauty Mask was put on the shelves, store people priced domestic masks so high that they would definitely not sell.

In the end, didn’t it still slap me in the face? Didn’t I rely on it to achieve this year’s performance target? !

The same must be true for strawberries!

What's more, according to Mingdai's personality, she was sure that the price Mingdai gave her would be much lower than that given to the Friendship Store!

Ming Dai nodded in agreement: "This price is indeed expensive, but I don't think there is anything wrong with our strawberries being more expensive than foreign chocolate.

Aren’t strawberries tastier than foreign chocolates? "

Tian Li thought for a moment and said, "Strawberries are delicious!"

Ming Dai continued to ask: "Is it more difficult to find strawberries in winter or chocolate in winter?"

This time Tian Li did not hesitate: "Of course strawberries are rare!"

Ming Dai spread her hands and said, "That's right. Scarcity makes things valuable. Our strawberries are both scarce and valuable. We sell them for $9 a box. Is there any problem?"

Tian Li immediately shook her head: "No problem!"

Tian Yongzhang: . . . . .

Could this girl be any dumber?

Tian Yongzhang was still a little hesitant and did not agree immediately.

Ming Dai looked at his dilemma and gave him an idea: "Mr. Tian, ​​how about this? A box of strawberries is priced at $12 and I'll put them with you for consignment.

You can give me the cost price of $9 for whatever you sell. I will take the rest so that Friendship Store won’t bear any losses.

What do you think of this approach?

Tian Yongzhang's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea! Do you Liujiawan agree to this?"

Ming Dai explained with a smile: "The strawberries I brought here were all grown by me and my partner. Before I came here, the team leader told me that I can make the final decision on how to sell the strawberries, so you don't have to worry about my losses from shipping them.

I just asked that you put the strawberries on the cosmetics counter and sell them together with the facial masks, saying that this is a new Chinese New Year limited edition gift box that will only be on sale for a few days. If you buy more after it’s sold out, you’ll have to wait until next year.”

Mingdai had said so much, and Tian Yongzhang readily agreed. They agreed to sign the contract and settle the payment after the sale.

When moving the goods, Tian Yongzhang was very curious when he saw the colorful scarves on the boxes.

Mingdai told him that this was the symbol of Liujiawan, meaning it was a specialty of Liujiawan.

The headscarves on the boxes were all selected by Mingdai herself, and they are all very beautiful in both color and style.

Mingdai also asked Gu Sinian to demonstrate several ways of wearing a headscarf and teach Tian Li so that she could show it to foreigners on the spot.

Tian Yongzhang looked at Gu Sinian's casually changing styles. Although they were a bit strange, he had to say they looked good. These foreigners would probably like them.

After everything was settled, Mingdai was sent out of the Friendship Store by Tian Yongzhang.

Coming to the truck, Tian Fei looked at Ming Dai expectantly.

Ming Dai took out 10 boxes from behind the passenger seat and handed them to her: "Yes, I promised to keep these 10 boxes for you."

Tian Fei excitedly took the 10 heavy boxes.

"If you want to give these 10 boxes as gifts for yourself, I'll give them to you at the price of 12 yuan per box."

Tian Fei smiled and nodded immediately.

In the evening, when Tian Fei brought home 10 boxes of strawberries, she was highly praised by the whole family.

Mrs. Jiang's second wife, Wang Xiuyun, looked at Tian Fei and was satisfied no matter how she looked at her.

"Fei Fei, you are so thoughtful. With these strawberries, this year's gift-giving is settled! I can't let you pay for this. Mom will give you the money later!"

Jiang Xingye, who was standing aside, looked at his wife and felt warm in his heart. These gifts were all for his event position.

Tian Fei's lips curled up slightly: "Mom, you are too polite. We are a family, why should we talk behind each other's backs? It just so happens that my friend has it and Brother Xingye needs it, so I bought it. If Brother Xingye can get a promotion, won't I also benefit from it?!"

The second son of the Jiang family looked at her approvingly and said, "Is it the doctor friend who makes facial masks?"

Tian Fei nodded: "It's still her."

Wang Xiuyun held her daughter-in-law's hand and sighed again: "I heard she is an orphan? What a pity! I wish such a good child was from our Jiang family."

As soon as she finished speaking, her palms tightened. She looked up and met Tian Fei's strange eyes.

She thought Tian Fei was overthinking, and quickly explained: "Of course our Feifei is still the best. Mom also sighed, as expected, the friends of excellent people are also excellent."

Tian Fei smiled and nodded: "She is indeed very good."
