Chapter 834: Talking to them made them laugh
"I have checked the prices of seafood in the Four Countries Restaurant and they are not low, especially the seafood from Nanyuan, which is twice as high as normal. You all know that Xianhailou is a restaurant specializing in seafood from Nanyuan. A table of seafood can cost dozens of taels at the cheapest. Compared to this price, thirty copper coins per pound, do you still think it is high?" Old Prince Feng checked the channels and prices that Gu Shuo used to sell seafood.
Especially lobsters and crabs, whether sold individually or to restaurants, the price can be as high as one or two taels of silver. Some deep-sea fish are also very expensive.
Nanyuan Aquatic Products included all the aquatic products, and the price of thirty copper coins still seemed too low to him.
Outside the hall, the people of Dayu City were very excited when they heard the price of thirty copper coins per catty. Thirty copper coins was three or four times higher than the price that Boss Gu said he would buy it for.
If the contract goes through, they will become rich overnight.
"Your Highness's Xianhailou does make money, but it's a restaurant opened by Mr. Gu. Although it's based on Nanyuan's aquatic products, it's not a Nanyuan industry after all, and it has no benefits for us." Li Mu was still clear-headed.
Wang Li nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "If we sign a contract and get the management rights of Xianhai Tower, I'm willing to sign the contract for thirty copper coins. If we don't have the management rights of Xianhai Tower, I can only sign the contract for eighteen copper coins at most."
Other merchants also whispered to each other that signing the contract and operating Xianhailou would indeed cost thirty copper coins.
Old Prince Feng also knew that Xianhailou was very profitable, but the restaurant was founded by Gu Shuo and was not included in the ten-year contract. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Gu Shuo and said, "Boss Gu, your ten-year contract is expiring. Xianhailou can no longer focus on seafood."
"Why, Nanyuan doesn't allow restaurants to open anymore?" Gu Shuo raised his eyes.
"The restaurant is fine, but if Nanyuan signs an agreement with another country, the sales rights of the aquatic products will be in the hands of others. If Boss Gu wants to continue running the business, he will have to buy the aquatic products at a high price." Old Prince Feng was calculating in his heart.
"High price? How much?"
"Half the price of Xianhai Tower." Old Prince Feng opened his mouth loudly.
Gu Shuo smiled.
Ye Qianning also smiled.
He glanced at Ming Hou coldly.
Zhan Chi snorted, mocking him to the extreme.
Qian Fanji raised his eyelids.
"Considering the price of Xianhai Tower, there is still profit to be made." Old Prince Feng said again.
Gu Shuo's smile persisted: "It's not like Nanyuan Aquatic Products is the only business in the world."
"So, Xianhailou doesn't plan to sell Nanyuan aquatic products anymore?"
"Your Highness has said this, doesn't it mean that you don't want me to sell it?"
"Boss Gu, what are you talking about? The prices at Xianhailou are extremely high. Even half of them are much higher than those of ordinary restaurants. If Boss Gu continues to run Xianhailou, the subsequent sales can be included in the contract." Old Prince Feng said sincerely.
"No need." Gu Shuo said coldly.
"Since Boss Gu is so insistent, I won't try to force him to stay. However, I have something to make clear to Boss Gu: Xianhailou is a restaurant that specializes in Nanyuan seafood. If Boss Gu no longer sells Nanyuan seafood, then Nanyuan will continue to run Xianhailou." Old Prince Feng paused, his face filled with grief. "Actually, as long as Boss Gu accepts the conditions just mentioned, Xianhailou will still belong to him."
Gu Shuo laughed again, amused by the logic of Old Prince Feng.
Upon hearing this, the merchants present lowered their eyes and thought.
