Chapter 24 Fruit Bidding
Huo Fangling ate a lot of fruit at his mother-in-law's house, and originally wanted to bring some back to his wife, children and uncle's family.
—Such a delicious fruit, of course everyone should eat it together!
However, when he arrived at the door, he heard the discussion about the purchase of fruit inside, and his face immediately changed.
He was thinking before, if everyone thinks it is delicious, then come over together and pick some more.
If all the fruits are purchased, what will he do?
Moreover, Xia Zhengting and the others have such confidence in these fruits, which shows that these fruits are indeed good!
Huo Fangling originally planned to give some wormwood gift boxes to other partners.
However, isn’t it inappropriate to suddenly give someone a wormwood gift box? If you add a box of delicious fruit, hey! Done!
The effect of wormwood is good, and the fruit tastes good. How good it is to combine the two!
Thinking of this, Huo Fangling smiled at Xia Zhengting: "Haven't you guys talked about the price yet? Besides, there should be a lot of fruit here, and you probably can't eat it, right? I want to buy some too!"
The expressions of the two were calm, but sparks flew when their eyes collided, as if they were about to fight in the next second.
Grandma Liu also said, "Yes, these fruits are so delicious, let's share them together!"
If it was before, when they were still the owners, they also had the right to distribute the fruit.
But now, they're tenants, it's different.
They can go pick some fruits and eat them by themselves, or give some to family and friends. But if the quantity is too much, it is not suitable.
Now, everything in the villa belongs to Xiao Yijing, and only with her consent can everyone use or eat it.
As cultural people, they can't do things for themselves.
After trying to understand these differences, the old lady felt a little complicated.
"Well, let me make a price first." Huo Fangling said with a smile, "No matter what kind of fruit, I will give fifty-one catties!"
As soon as the price was announced, everyone's expressions changed slightly.
However, the price is fair. After all, those imported fruits outside, high-end fruits, are expensive, but the taste is not as good as the fruits of the villa!
None of the people present were poor, but every time they ate those imported fruits and thought about their prices, they all wanted to cut up these fruits and crush them to see if there was gold hidden in them!
Otherwise, the taste is so ordinary, why is it so expensive? !
Some big fruits are even more ridiculous! Nothing but good looks!
However, they seldom buy these fruits by themselves, they are all given by others.
No way, as a gift, you still have to be decent.
Those fruits that can only be used as a facade cost several hundred yuan a catty. The fruits in the villa are so delicious that they can crush these imported fruits with only one packaging. The price of 51 catties is not expensive!
After Huo Fangling bid, Xia Zhengting smiled slightly, "These fruits taste so good, fifty one catty is not enough. I will offer one hundred one catty!"
After asking the price, Xia Zhengting also explained: "I have eaten Guiwei in a friend's orchard before. It is delicious, but it is not as good as the one here. Their Guiwei lychee sells for 75 a catty."
Xia Zhengting did not lie, he did have such a friend.
The production of lychees this year is not too much, and the cinnamon tastes good, so they are already expensive. Especially if it takes time and energy to take care of it carefully, it is not cheap.
The cinnamon-flavored lychees from that friend’s house were bought by everyone before they were ripe, and they were sold at a price of 75 a catty!
Xu Liheng also nodded, expressing his agreement with Xia Zhengting's words, "I have also eaten the fruit from that orchard, and the taste is very good. But it is really not as good as the fruit from the villa."
Others looked at the two in amazement, especially Huo Fangling, who was dumbfounded.
How can you raise the price like this crazy! ? It doesn't talk about Wude!
At this time, shouldn’t the price be negotiated? !
Or, offer the same price as him!
Huo Fangling was confused by Xia Zhengting's operation.
Xiao Yijing's eyes were filled with surprise, then joy.
It seems that she is very satisfied with Xia Zhengting's price!
Huo Fangling's heart skipped a beat, because he thought of it, there are more than a few kinds of fruits in this villa! And other fruits too!
Some fruits are not yet ripe, and when they are ripe, their taste should not be bad!
Even if the taste of the later fruit is not very good, but in the second year, these lychee and longan trees can still bear fruit again!
The same tree, the same water and soil environment, even if the taste of the fruit in the second year is slightly different, it will not be completely different!
So, Xia Zhengting is not for the follow-up development, is it?
He offered such a high price and successfully curry favor with Xiao Yijing, and it will be much easier to buy anything after that!
Sure enough, he is a profiteer!
Huo Fangling's thoughts changed sharply, and he quickly figured out Xia Zhengting's "sinister" thoughts, and immediately raised the price, "My price just now was indeed a little lower, so I will offer one hundred and fifty-one catties!"
This time, even Grandma Liu couldn't help looking at her son-in-law.
Is this price too exaggerated?
But she didn't expect that Xia Zhengting also followed, "Then I'll give you two hundred!"
Now, everyone else was shocked.
It’s just fruit, so is it necessary to charge such an exaggerated price? !
Huo Fangling's face twitched, his smile froze, "Little boy, there's no need to do this, right?"
"It's okay, I have a few restaurants, the business is pretty good, and they can be used up."
“…isn’t it important to control costs when doing business?”
"It's okay, the cost is within our control."
Huo Fangling's face darkened uncontrollably, "May I ask, what's the name of your restaurant?"
"Splendid scenery on the clouds." Xia Zhengting said with a smile: "It's quite a predestined relationship with Yunlu Mountain Villa."
"Sunshine on the Cloud?! Are you the boss of the Scenery on the Cloud?!" Huo Fangling's face changed slightly.
This Yunshang Shengjing is a well-known high-end restaurant!
Although it has only been open for five years, its reputation has already started.
The people who come in and out of Yunshang Shengjing are all rich people, after all, the average consumption there is thousands of people!
Although the price is high, the food inside tastes really good!
There are rumors that the head chef of this restaurant is an imperial chef! So there are often some good things that can't be eaten in other restaurants here.
Huo Fangling has also been to Yunshang Shengjing with his friends, and he has a good impression of it.
Although expensive, it is worth the money.
Many high-end restaurants focus on atmosphere and style, and the food is mediocre. But the grand view on the cloud has no shortcomings.
With such a comparison, the price-performance ratio is good!
But they are just ordinary consumption, far inferior to the spending level of other big bosses, and they have never received personal service from the chef.
It's just that he didn't expect that the boss of Yunshang Shengjing is Xia Zhengting!
Then, Huo Fangling's face changed!
Now it’s two hundred a catty, but if you go to the grand scene on the cloud, won’t it become two hundred a catty? !
That's not okay!
Huo Fangling was in a hurry, and continued to shout: "I'll pay you two hundred and fifty!"
Everyone: "…"
