The Lin family walked around the market several times under the choking dust, listening carefully to the customers' comments about the market.
A woman said: "In the future, no matter what kind of food you buy at this market, you don't have to buy it with a ticket. It's great!"
A greedy woman said: "It would be better if the price is the same as what other state-owned markets plan to supply."
Her words immediately caused many women shopping for groceries to attack her.
"Why are you so pushy? They don't rely on tickets and let you buy unlimited amounts. You are still not satisfied!"
"Besides, their prices are not much higher than what the state-run food markets plan to supply.
Although the prices of the green vegetables planned to be supplied by the state-owned vegetable market are a little lower, the vegetables are not as juicy and fresh as the vegetables sold in this market. There is no shame in buying them back and you can eat them all.
The green vegetables sold in the state-owned vegetable markets that are planned to be supplied are yellow and greasy, and a lot of leaves will be lost when they are returned.
Calculating it this way, the vegetables sold in this market are no more expensive than the vegetables sold in the state-owned market that we plan to supply."
Many women shopping for groceries nodded: "That's right!"
Lin Mai smiled with satisfaction, looked up and saw the office door was wide open, and she walked in.
Chen Feng was rolling around on the shabby sofa in the office and talking on the phone with someone.
The content seems to be bragging, spanking, small talk, and occasionally laughing like hey hey hey, you understand and I understand.
Lin Mai stood and listened for a while. Chen Feng was not talking on the phone in a boring way, but was trying to build relationships with people and wanted to do business.
Lin Mai looked at him confused.
This is not the cold-faced, cold-hearted and destructive gangster she knew. He is clearly a well-rounded social butterfly!
This character's character is so broken.
Chen Feng also saw Lin Mai and hurriedly said "We'll talk to him later" to the person on the phone and hung up the phone.
He returned to his usual noble and cool appearance within three seconds, which is faster than changing his face in Sichuan Opera.
"Are you here?" He pointed to the watermelon cut into small pieces on the coffee table, "Want a piece of watermelon?"
It seems that this watermelon was prepared by Chen Feng for himself. This guy really knows how to enjoy life.
Lin Mai sat down opposite him, picked up a piece of watermelon and started to chew on it: "Yesterday I asked Mingcheng to inform your little brother to go to Simei Town to buy some melons to sell.
I didn’t expect you to bring in so many crops, poultry, and vegetables. You can earn a lot from just selling these today!”
Her original plan was to wait until the food court was renovated and the dry seafood from the coast was almost purchased, and then the restaurant would open for business and get off to a good start.
Unexpectedly, Chen Feng could get off to a good start just by selling agricultural products purchased from Simei Town in a dusty market.
Chen Feng also picked up a piece of watermelon and ate it happily.
Lin Mai felt that the two of them were collapsing together.
Anyway, there are no outsiders present, so let it collapse.
Chen Fengdao: "Anyway, if you want to sell melons, you'll still be selling the same melons, and you'll be selling if you sell a variety of melons. It's better to sell a variety of melons to get more income.
The vegetable market you contracted has to pay rent and taxes, which is a heavy burden!
In addition, when the folks in Simei Town saw us harvesting crops, they all looked forward to us harvesting their crops.
That scary look was irresistible, so I took the initiative and purchased as much of their agricultural products as possible.
Fortunately, it sold well. If it didn't sell well, I don't know how to do business with you."
The two chatted for a while about the market business, and then Lin Mai went to the watermelon pile and bought two large watermelons and took them home.
When she passed Chun Xing's snack bar, Chun Xing suddenly raised her throat and said loudly: ""Some people think that they can get agricultural products.
I also watch other people’s releases, sell this or not, thinking I’m more prestigious!
If you don’t sell me, I won’t be able to buy corn?
It’s not like the state-run market on Jiefang Road doesn’t sell corn. There’s no purchase limit, and the price is only 15 cents a corn.
That corn is so good, it’s so long and the rice grains on it are plump!”
She glanced at Lin Mai disdainfully: "It's much better than the corn some people sell."
Her loud voice attracted many neighbors to come over and stand a few meters away to watch her speech-like performance.
When someone heard this, they couldn't help but sneered: "No matter how good it is, it only costs 15 cents a piece, but we bought it for nine cents a piece!"
Chun Xing glanced at the man sideways: "I was talking about the retail price. If you take the wholesale price, it only costs a dime!"
Everyone collectively pouted: "That's still expensive~"
"Why is it expensive? Their corn is much better than what you get in someone's hands!"
Lin Mai waved his hand at Chun Xing: "Please save yourself on a hot day and stop yelling.
Don't blame Sang and Huai, just point out my name.
But what I want to tell you is that the state-owned food market on Jiefang Road has been contracted by me and will soon be renamed Fuduoduo Food Market.
The corn you bought there is also mine, and the corn purchased from the same place is of the same quality, so don’t stir up trouble here."
Chun Xing was dumbfounded. She never expected that the state-owned market on Jiefang Road would be contracted by Lin Mai.
Lin Mai loudly said to the neighbors: "If you want to go to the state-owned market to buy corn, the wholesale price is ten cents a piece."
"No, no, no, we'll buy it from you, and you'd better give us nine cents."
Although it's only a penny cheaper, if you buy more, you can save several dollars.
The Lin family nodded: "Of course, as long as you purchase 500 sticks each time, you can enjoy this benefit."
These neighbors will be her stable customers in the future, and they can be considered big customers, so it doesn't matter if they get more discounts.
After hearing this, Chun Xing rolled her eyes, thinking that if she went to the market tomorrow to wholesale 500 corns, she could get the lowest price.
Lin Mai continued: "I also sell potatoes, edamame, and other vegetables at the market. If you go and buy them, we will give you wholesale prices."
Potatoes, edamame and other vegetables can be made into cold dishes and sold at night markets, and the owners of these snack bars also need them.
A neighbor asked: "What is the wholesale price of your potatoes and edamame?"
Lin Mai quoted them a wholesale price, but this time it was not a special wholesale price.
Give them a special price for corn, but don’t give them a special price for anything else.
But this price is already a little cheaper compared to the wholesale price on the black market.
Several bosses selling box lunches and stir-fried dishes at noon got excited and said, "I'm going to bring in some vegetables right now."
When Chun Xing saw this scene, she was so angry that she almost exploded on the spot.
She was originally going to disrupt Huang Linmai's corn business.
As a result, it not only failed to disrupt her corn business, but actually boosted her vegetable business.
Lin Mai returned to her snack bar and gave a large watermelon to Zhou Caiyun, asking her to cut it for everyone to eat.
She carried the other big watermelon upstairs.
Doudou has been following her, waiting to eat the watermelon.
Lin Mai cut the big watermelon in half, put the majority of the watermelon in the freezer to freeze, and cut the smaller half into pieces for Little Mengdou to eat.
Ah Huang sat next to Doudou and watched her eat with his tongue hanging out.
Doudou was a kind-hearted child. Seeing Ah Huang's frustrated tears dripping down his tongue, he gave him a piece of watermelon that he had intentionally not eaten cleanly.
As a result, Ah Huang didn't eat it at all after smelling it.
Lin Mai looked on amused, but did not interfere and went downstairs to prepare lunch.
I heard Doudou's voice teaching Ah Huang from upstairs: "It's wrong for you to be so picky about food. It will be bad for your health." There was a lot of blah blah blah.
Hey, why do these lines sound so familiar?
Isn't this the line I usually use to teach the little cute baby?
Lin Mai laughed dumbly.
Halfway through lunch, Master Zhang suddenly came and said he wanted to discuss something with her.
