Seeing that Lin Wanru's attitude seemed to have changed, Shopkeepers Ma and Xu sat down with peace of mind and took a sip of tea. Shopkeeper Ma said unhurriedly: "Both of us have prepared the goods. I wonder when the Lin family will pick them up?
"
"This is not urgent."
Li Yi picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said, "Before that, there is one more thing that I must explain clearly to you two."
Lin Wanru looked at him, then at the teacup in his hand, her lips slightly opened, but in the end she didn't say anything.
"But it doesn't matter." Shopkeeper Xu smiled and said.
He looked at the young man sitting on the main seat, and then at Lin Wanru beside him, and thought to himself that the Bai family had been plotting against the Lin family for so long, but in the end they still made wedding dresses for others. Fortunately, Bai Yu didn't come today, otherwise he would
If I saw this scene, I don't know what I would feel.
Li Yi looked at them and said: "A few days ago, you unilaterally raised the price..."
Shopkeeper Ma said anxiously: "This is all in the past..."
Li Yi waved his hand and said: "Because of your price increase, the Lin family just purchased a batch of jewelry yesterday. At this time, they no longer have enough money to receive these two batches of goods."
"Is this happening?" When the two of them heard this, their expressions changed.
"Therefore, we can only accept goods from one family." Li Yi looked at the two of them and said, "As for whether it is the Ma family or the Xu family, you two can discuss it yourself."
After saying that, he took another sip of tea, turned back to look at Lin Wanru, and said with a smile: "Today's tea is quite delicious, have you changed the tea leaves?"
Lin Wanru's gaze lingered on his teacup for a moment, and she said, "No, it may be because of the water. Today's water is a spring specially picked from the mountain by Lin Dage."
After speaking, she glanced at Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Xu, whose expressions changed slightly, but said nothing.
The price of jewelry bought from foreign merchants was low, and although it was a large sum of money, the Lin family would not be in trouble. They were just a little nervous if they really wanted to accept the goods from the Ma family and the Xu family.
He glanced at Li Yi again, and he probably understood the meaning of what he just said.
"One family?" Shopkeeper Ma's expression changed slightly. He did not expect that the Lin family had actually found a new partner. If they could only receive goods from one company, the goods from the other company would have to stay in their hands.
The reason why they raised prices unscrupulously before was because the business in this line of business has been established in Fengzhou. Apart from the two of them, the Lin family could not find anywhere else to buy goods. The same was true for them. Those big stores had their own
channels, without the Lin family, no one can get their goods.
Whether the goods can be exported in the future is irrelevant. If you cannot get the money today, the transaction with foreign merchants will not be completed tomorrow. You will have to watch a lot of money slip away from your eyes, and the loss will be immeasurable.
Shopkeeper Ma stood up, sighed, and said: "The Ma family and the Xu family have always advanced and retreated together. In this case, let's forget about disturbing you today. Brother Xu, let's go."
"Farewell!"
Shopkeeper Xu also stood up immediately, and the two of them casually cupped their hands and turned to leave.
Lin Wanru came over, glanced outside the door, and said, "They left."
Li Yi took another sip of tea and said, "I'll be back soon."
"So sure?" Lin Wanru raised her eyebrows.
Li Yi smiled and said, "Let's wait and see."
Even though they, Brother Ma and Brother Xu, call each other cordial, they are actually just plastic brotherhood. When the interests of each family are really involved, real brothers will turn against each other.
The two of them are short of money right now, otherwise they wouldn't come over to beg the Lin family to receive the goods. Now it's up to them to see who can bear it first.
"The tea tastes really different today. It doesn't seem to be due to water..." Li Yi picked up the tea cup and looked at her and said.
Lin Wanru pointed to the teacup on the table and said, "This is red date and wolfberry tea...and, this is my teacup."
Li Yi was startled, opened the lid of the cup, looked at it again, and slowly put down the tea cup. The atmosphere in the room seemed a bit awkward.
"Haha, red dates and wolfberry tea is good. Red dates nourish the body and qi, nourish blood and calm the mind. Wolfberries nourish the liver and improve eyesight, produce fluid and quench thirst. Drinking more of this tea can also improve anemia caused by menstruation in women..., cough, in short,
Drinking more is good, drinking more is good.”
Li Yi coughed twice, stood up from his chair, cupped his hands toward the door, and said, "Shopkeeper Ma, please come in."
Seeing Shopkeeper Ma walk in again, a trace of surprise finally appeared on Lin Wanru's face.
A smile appeared on Shopkeeper Ma's face and he said: "Haha, Miss Lin, I thought about it, we can still talk about that batch of goods."
Lin Wanru looked at Li Yi. Li Yi stepped forward with a hint of embarrassment on his face and said: "Shopkeeper Ma, to be honest, our Lin family has no shortage of jade materials this time, but we are more impressed by the Xu family's gems."
I am more interested, so, Shopkeeper Ma, I can only apologize..."
Shopkeeper Ma was stunned for a moment, then his expression suddenly changed and he immediately said: "Miss Lin, please think about it again. The price of jade has been very good recently. There is no harm in stocking up on more goods..."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Sorry, Shopkeeper Ma, we still feel..."
"Ninety percent!" Shopkeeper Ma looked at them and said, "I'll lower the price to 90%. I only need 90% of the market price!"
The amount of Liuli this time was huge. He calculated the remaining money at home and scraped together some, but it was still far from enough. The value of this batch of goods was not small. It could be said that this batch of goods was his last hope.
Li Yi frowned and shook his head: "This is really not a question of money..."
Shopkeeper Ma gritted his teeth and his voice trembled: "Can we give another half a percent, another half a percent..."
"Money really doesn't matter..."
Shopkeeper Ma's eyes were already filled with tears, and he gritted his teeth and said: "80%, 80% can't be less, go and ask around, you won't find this price anywhere!"
Lin Wanru looked at Shopkeeper Ma. She had been dealing with him for several years, but this was the first time she saw him showing such an expression. When her eyes turned to Li Yi, the expression on her pretty face became a little complicated.
What confidence does he have in his heart that he can force Shopkeeper Ma to do this...
"Hmph, you said there is no such price anywhere?" A cold snort came from outside the door. Shopkeeper Xu strode in and said coldly: "My Xu family is willing to give up another 50% on top of the 80% price!"
"Xu, what do you mean?"
"Ma, what do you mean by sneaking back here?"
"Aren't you?"
…
…
Li Yi looked at Lin Wanru, shrugged slightly, and expressed satisfaction with his prediction.
Lin Wanru glanced at him, sat down on a chair nearby, took a sip of tea, looked at the two people in the hall who were arguing so much, and sighed, feeling some sympathy for them at this moment.
At a certain moment, as if she thought of something, she slowly turned her head and looked at the tea cup in her hand. The expression on her pretty face froze, and she had not yet swallowed the tea in her mouth.
"You two, calm down, calm down."
As the atmosphere between the two gradually became more intense, and one of them was already looking randomly at the chairs in the room, Li Yi knew that they could not let them continue arguing like this.
"We are all doing business together. Don't lower your head or raise your head to see each other. Don't hurt the harmony." He walked between the two people, separated them, and said: "Isn't it just because of the problem of the goods? I have a way to make it happen.
The goods from both companies are sold."
"What can I do?" The two of them immediately looked at him at the same time.
"How about all the goods from both families are sold at 50% of the market price?" Li Yi looked at them and encouraged: "In this way, the Lin family can eat all the goods from both families."
Phew~
Lin Wanru's body leaned forward slightly, and she almost spat out the tea that she didn't know whether to swallow or spit out. When she saw Li Yi's eyes looking over, she covered her face with her sleeves in embarrassment and secretly wiped away the water stains at the corners of her mouth.
After wiping it off and raising her head, the expression on her face froze - she finally swallowed the sip of tea in panic.
At this time, Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Xu finally reacted to the shock of those words.
"Fifty percent? Why don't you go and grab it!" Shopkeeper Ma was the first to jump anxiously.
Shopkeeper Xu then said: "Do you know what you are talking about, 50%, can we still make money?"
"Our Lin family is also in this business."
Li Yi looked at the two of them and said: "Everyone knows how much profit there is in this industry. You can still make 50% of it. As a human being, don't be too greedy..."
"This is for you!" Shopkeeper Ma looked at him and said angrily: "Brother Xu, let's go!"
Shopkeeper Xu's expression changed. He clenched his fists in his sleeves, and finally released them. He closed his eyes and said slowly: "Brother Ma, please go back first. I want to have a good talk with this greedy young man..."
