Chapter 409: help sell flowers
On the first day of the first lunar month, it was another day to visit relatives and friends to pay New Year greetings to each other. Xu Shiyan went to the homes of Chen Jianzhang, Yu Shouguang, Lin Qiyue, Li Bingzhuo and others to pay New Year greetings.
Going home in the afternoon to light the fire, the phone rang suddenly, and it was only when I answered that I realized that the co-author was a relatively large Clivia dealer in the provincial capital.
The other party called Xu Shiyan\'s house several times, but no one answered, but this time they finally got through.
The other side said that there are two merchants who want to buy Clivia, and they will come to Songjianghe tomorrow.
Indeed, in the eyes of these people, there is no such thing as celebrating the New Year, making money is the most important thing.
Years pass every year, but opportunities to earn money are rare.
Xu Shiyan doesn\'t care if these people have a place to eat and live, anyway, he just needs to help Master Qin sell Clivia.
So I made an appointment with the other party. At noon tomorrow, Xu Shiyan went to the train station to pick them up, and then took them to Master Qin\'s house to see Clivia.
At noon on the second day of junior high school, Xu Shiyan found Li Zongliang and drove to the train station to pick him up.
Sure enough, I saw a few people coming out of the station, and two of them were dressed unusually, and they should be the foreign merchants that the other party said.
The other ones are tall and strong, so it goes without saying that they are bodyguards.
There is only one thin monkey-like man, a well-known Clivia second-hand dealer in the provincial capital, surnamed Hou, who looks thin and thin, so everyone calls him Thin Monkey.
"This way." Xu Shiyan waved at the thin monkey. "I thought you could come by car, but I didn\'t expect to come by train."
"Oh, who dares to drive now? The road is very chaotic.
It is possible to fly by plane, and if the plane is not available, take the train. At least it is safer. "
Shouhou shook his head. There have been several cases of road robbery on the road leading to the provincial capital.
Either Clivia was robbed, or the money to buy Clivia was robbed. Now no one dares to drive by themselves, they all take public transportation.
"Let\'s go, I have a car here, but it can\'t fit so many people. I guess they have to sit in the back of the car."
Xu Shiyan was too busy years ago to learn how to drive, but now he can barely drive the car away, how dare he drive by himself?
So I called Li Zongliang and asked Li Zongliang to be responsible for driving.
At this time, don’t care about the car, Shouhou leads the two merchants in the car, and the other bodyguards are sitting in the back of the car.
Li Zongliang started the car, followed the route Xu Shiyan pointed out, and went straight to Master Qin\'s house.
Master Qin\'s family lives in Baishan Street, which is the area behind the bureau building.
Xu Shiyan has been there several times, and he found the place with familiarity.
Xu Shiyan told Master Qin and his wife in advance, and besides, there must be no one at home during the Chinese New Year, so Xu Shiyan and his party went directly to the hospital.
"Master Qin, I brought the person you are looking for for you." Xu Shiyan entered the door and called.
The movement was heard in the house, Master Qin\'s husband, Zhao Yonggang, came out of the house.
Seeing that Xu Shiyan led the people, Zhao Yonggang also heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly welcomed everyone into the house.
"Master Qin, Master Zhao, these two are the big bosses who came to see Hua.
That, tweed? Move it out and let the two of you see it. "Xu Shiyan introduced it to everyone, and then asked where the flowers were.
In the past, the flower was placed on the window sill of the south window, but now the window sill is bare, and it is obvious at a glance that it is hidden.
"Wait a minute, I\'ll go and hug her right away." Zhao Yonggang hurried out.
After a while, I saw several people coming in with something behind them.
Behind him are two sons and a daughter of his family. They are holding something tightly wrapped in clothes and blankets in their arms. It is Clivia.
Many people in this neighborhood know that Master Qin has Clivia in his home. Many people come here these days and say they want to buy it.
Some of them really want to buy it, and some of them just want to steal it.
Frightened, Master Qin didn\'t dare to keep Clivia in his house, so he simply moved to his son and daughter\'s side, hiding it carefully so as not to be stolen.
The four pots of Clivia are finished orchids that have been grown for many years. The leaves are green and tall, especially the oilman, whose leaves are oily and extraordinarily energetic.
The two merchants immediately took a fancy to it, and began to negotiate the price with Master Qin and his wife.
Master Qin didn\'t understand, so he asked Xu Shiyan for help.
These potted flowers are all high-quality goods, Xu Shiyan naturally can\'t be too low.
"One pot is 35,000, and four pots are 130,000." If this was in the provincial capital, Xu Shiyan would have to pay 40,000 per pot.
After all, when someone comes over, they should give way to some extent, and they can\'t make people toss in vain.
The price would be scary to ordinary people, but the two merchants were not surprised at all. They knew at a glance that they were all prepared.
"130,000 is too expensive, 80,000, let\'s take 80,000 and pay in cash."
The two merchants had nothing to say, but the thin monkey began to bargain.
A middleman like Shouhou, if the business is successful, the two merchants will have to give him a certain amount of bonuses, and the locals also call it Duofenger.
If the thin monkey can help negotiate the price, the other party will also give him a bonus fee, so the thin monkey bargains very hard.
But Xu Shiyan just refused to give in. Anyway, they stayed at home, and if this group of people didn\'t buy it, he went back and called others.
If it doesn’t work, he will go back to the provincial capital after school starts in two days, and at worst, he will take the flowers back.
Any flower and tree company can sell at a high price, so what are you afraid of?
Instead, these few people came all the way from the provincial capital, not to mention the cost, Songjianghe, which is so big for Chinese New Year, doesn\'t even have a place to eat and live.
If the business fails, they just lose money and make trouble.
Xu Shiyan grasped this point and refused to give in no matter what. The two sides talked and talked, and the last four pots of flowers were sold for 125,000 yuan.
The other party really came with cash, and those tall and burly bodyguards were all carrying big back pockets on their backs, which contained money.
Immediately, he poured out the money in his back pocket, and counted a hundred and twenty-five bundles.
Master Qin\'s family\'s eyes were wide open. Who would have thought that four potted flowers could be sold for more than 100,000 yuan?
When Zhao Yonggang packed up the money, his hands were shaking.
The other party directly asked Zhao Yonggang for those clothes and blankets, and kept the package Clivia. Zhao Yonggang agreed without saying a word.
Just kidding, more than 100,000 yuan, how many clothes and blankets can’t be bought? Why bother about that?
Zhao Yonggang also rummaged through two dirt baskets and asked them to put the flowers in the dirt baskets.
The surrounding area is surrounded by things, and the outside is wrapped with two layers of plastic sheets to seal the windows.
This is enough to keep warm, as long as it is not kept outside to freeze, it will be fine.
The transaction was completed, and the other party asked Xu Shiyan to take them to the train station.
For those who celebrate the Chinese New Year, the hotels around the train station are still open. They have to stay near the train station for one night and return to the provincial capital by car tomorrow.
Xu Shiyan didn\'t show courtesy to these people, and asked Li Zongliang for a fare of 200 yuan, and then let Li Zongliang drive and send those people to the train station.
With those two earthen baskets, too many people can’t sit in the cab, and the thin monkey has gone to the back of the car.
Xu Shiyan simply didn\'t follow, and waited for Li Zongliang at Qin\'s house.
"Xiao Xu, thank you so much, you take this little money, it is our heart."
As soon as the car drove away, Zhao Yonggang dragged Xu Shiyan into the house and insisted on giving him 5,000 yuan.
