The shopkeeper of a certain restaurant who was approached faced Wu Dong, Zhu Zhurong and his entourage with hesitation on his face and hesitation in speaking, but refused to tell the truth.
"Shopkeeper, what do you mean?"
Wu Dong's face darkened, and he said unhappily: "The fish and shrimp provided by the militia are all live, and the market price has not been forcibly raised. Why do you have any hesitation?"
"Little brother, you can't say that!"
The restaurant owner said with a grimace: "I believe the militia can provide live fish and shrimp at market prices, but the restaurant has already outsourced a year's supply of fish and shrimp to others!"
At this point, his face was full of helplessness, and he apologized: "The most important thing in doing business is to be sincere..."
"Come on, I'm not interested in listening to you preach!"
Wu Dong waved his hand and turned around to leave, calling Zhu Zhurong to leave the restaurant together, leaving only the shopkeeper with a gloomy expression.
"A Dong..."
After leaving the restaurant, Zhu Zhurong was worried that Wu Dong would get off to a bad start. He felt uncomfortable in his heart and said, "You don't know, the owner of this restaurant is very selfish. The person who provides vegetables, meat, eggs, fish and shrimp to the restaurant is his nephew."
!”
"Of course I know this, don't worry, I'm fine!"
Wu Dong was amused and shook his head: "How could I not have conducted careful investigation before coming here? His nephew is still a gang member!"
"Since you know, then you still..."
Zhu Zhurong was puzzled, and the few group members who followed him were also confused.
Everyone has a stable supplier, and they are also close relatives. If the vigilante group wants to forcefully intervene and rob them, won't they be disliked?
"It is precisely because his nephew is a member of a gang and is not a good guy that I came to talk to him specifically!"
But Wu Dong didn't take it seriously and sneered: "Since you don't give me face, then don't blame me for being rude!"
"A Dong, please don't act recklessly, the master will not agree!"
Zhu Rong was startled and hurriedly spoke to dissuade him.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on!"
Wu Dong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Take this opportunity to give some guys a good beating and let them know who is the boss at the dock!"
Next, they went to another restaurant and negotiated directly with the restaurant owner this time.
The result was quite smooth. I don't know whether it was because they were afraid of the strength of the militia or because they wanted to give Huang Feihong some face. In short, the agreement was reached smoothly.
The content of the agreement is very simple, that is, the supply of fish and shrimp in the restaurant will be handed over to the vigilante group, and the restaurant will purchase the fish and shrimp at market price, and no credit will be owed on a daily basis.
The vigilante group is not only responsible for transportation, but also ensures that the fish and shrimp are alive.
As for the last item, Wu Dong added it forcibly. He had no intention of creating a debt relationship with the restaurant, otherwise he would be entangled in the future.
Later generations have seen too many disgusting things in the business world...
It was a good start, but subsequent negotiations with other restaurants in Foshan City were not smooth sailing.
To sum up, it is a restaurant where the boss is personally in charge, and everything has basically been agreed upon.
Unless there is a special relationship, these restaurant owners will basically give the militia this favor, no matter who buys fresh fish and shrimp from them.
If the restaurant was run by the shopkeeper, there would basically be no agreement.
The situation is similar to that of the first restaurant. Either the vegetables are purchased by relatives, or they have interests in dealings with gangs on the dock. It is not easy to get them to spit it out.
Of course, Wu Dong had no intention of embarrassing these uncooperative restaurants.
Being able to open a restaurant in the urban area of Foshan, he or she has the support of the forces behind him. He does not look at the monks but the Buddhas. If Wu Dong wanted to take advantage of the militia in the city, Huang Feihong would be the first to refuse.
Fortunately, he didn't have such thoughts. What's the difference between acting like this and a bully?
If you really fall behind, you should naturally target those Jianghu forces. Even the gentlemanly Huang Feihong will not have any good impressions of the unruly Jianghu forces.
After visiting the restaurants in the city, there are more small restaurants next.
The result was unexpectedly smooth. All the small restaurants that Wu Dong and his party visited on their own initiative basically agreed to be provided by the militia with fresh live fish and shrimps.
Thinking about it, it is understandable that these small restaurants do not have a large demand for live fish and shrimp every day, and it is estimated that those in the gangs that monopolize the fish and shrimp business at the docks do not like it either.
These small restaurants are basically family-run and do not have much ability to withstand risks.
Regardless of whether he was willing in his heart or not, he did not have the guts to refuse the 'good intentions' of the militia.
Wu Dong didn't care about all that, as long as the business was settled.
Didn't you see that Pork Rong, who was deeply influenced by Huang Feihong, was full of joy and had no objection at all? He was obviously very satisfied with the result.
After following Wu Dong around the city and signing many supply agreements, Zhu Zhurong also understood Wu Dong's idea of making money.
Isn't it just to seize the monopoly interests of the dock gangs and earn the price difference between buying fish and shrimp and selling fish and shrimp?
If it were him, he could do it.
However, this is a stable way to make money, and it does not violate Huang Feihong's concept of doing things. Pork Rong feels quite good.
The money earned subsidizes the lives of some members of the militia group, and is estimated to be able to maintain the scale of the militia group.
Based on this, with the strength of the militia, they can not only monopolize the supply of fish and shrimp at the dock, but also the supply of vegetables.
This is what he thought, and the close group members who came with him basically had the same meaning and thoughts.
Zhu Zhurong was not polite and directly expressed his thoughts.
"Yeah, I also think Pork Rong has a good idea. We can make the stall bigger and make more money this way!"
"That's right, those gangs on the dock are not good birds. We can just replace them and let the coolies on the dock earn more!"
"You're right, at least we won't bully the people on the dock at will!"
"..."
The close group members who came with me hurriedly echoed, their faces full of excitement and excitement.
It is exciting to think about overthrowing the Jianghu forces who rely on exploitation for food on the dock and unifying the supply of vegetable goods at the dock.
"Just do it step by step. If there is too much noise all at once, I'm afraid there will be bloody conflicts!"
Wu Dong shook his head and said: "The militia has just been established, so it's better not to make it so difficult!"
Damn, it’s not too big of a deal to watch the excitement. Don’t you girls know that the government’s attitude towards the militia is not very good? I’m afraid they are secretly watching the militia and will immediately take action to deal with it once the militia causes trouble.
If nothing else, the admiral of neighboring Guangdong Province will never give up!
Pork Rong probably didn't know this at all, let alone the ordinary members of the group. Wu Dong naturally didn't tell them the idea of creating panic...
