Li Qingyun thought that this middle-aged man must be a person of high status. He was surrounded by people and had a great aura. He might be a well-known big shot in southern Guangdong Province. Since he has some connections with him, why not go over and let him do it?
Pointing out a clear path will save you from having to sell your products one by one, only to be looked down upon by others.
Li Qingyun nodded slightly and followed the middle-aged man upstairs.
The middle-aged man led Li Qingyun to the 38th floor. This floor is mostly used for leisure and entertainment, and the tea room is just one of them. It is elegant and quiet.
The entourage did not follow him, but only waited in the rest area outside the tea room. It seemed that they had already received the instruction from the middle-aged man and did not dare to disturb him.
Entering the tea room, I chose a seat by the window. Immediately, a waitress came over and asked extremely nervously and enthusiastically: "Director Lei, what kind of tea do you want today?"
"Bring me the best Tieguanyin and tea sets, and I will make the tea myself today." The middle-aged man said crisply.
The waitress glanced at Li Qingyun in surprise and ran to prepare. At the same time, she was secretly surprised that Lei Dong rarely made tea himself, unless a very special big shot came.
While the waiter was preparing the tea set, the middle-aged man took out a gold-gilt business card and handed it to Li Qingyun respectfully: "Last time we said goodbye in a hurry on the plane, I guess you didn't look at my business card carefully. Let's get to know each other again today. My name is
Lei Fangting has a small business and a small fortune, so I have some shares in this hotel."
Li Qingyun took a closer look at the business card and was shocked to find that this middle-aged man was actually the chairman of the Nanyue Hotel Chain. What does he have a net worth and a few shares? Isn't this too modest?
Li Qingyun smiled apologetically: "It turns out to be Director Lei, I'm disrespectful. I, Li Qingyun, opened a farm and grew some vegetables. It was a small business, which made Director Lei laugh."
"It turns out to be Mr. Li. But aren't you a doctor? Why did you open a farm again? With your medical skills, you can be famous anywhere, right?" Lei Fangting asked doubtfully.
"Haha. Medical skills are just a side job. I learned a little bit from my grandfather. I don't even have the qualifications to be a doctor. How can I be a doctor? Let's not mention it. It was pure luck that I was able to save Director Lei." Li Qingyun also imitated the other person's modesty and extremely low-key manner.
explained.
"Mr. Li was joking. Afterward, I heard from my secretary that the method you used to save me was extremely special. It should be a secret skill passed down from family. You just clicked on a few acupuncture points on my body and fed me half a glass of water, and my problems actually recovered.
60% to 70%. I went to the hospital for a check-up the day before yesterday. My attending doctor almost popped his eyes out and said it was unbelievable. My coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction and other problems were only a little bit recovered." Lei Fangting didn't believe it.
What he said was that Li Qingyun was a miraculous doctor passed down from his family.
"Let's talk about medical matters later. I'm here today because I'm eager to sell vegetable products. If this can't be done, I won't be in the mood to talk about anything else." Li Qingyun smiled mysteriously, not wanting to focus on saving people.
Talk more.
But Lei Fangting was thoughtful and laughed: "Hahahaha, it was me who was rude. Mr. Li has already saved my life, but I am still not satisfied. I want to cure my old illness, but I ignore Mr.
The demand is my fault. Come on, come on. Let me offer you tea instead of wine, and I will offer you a drink as an apology."
"Director Lei misunderstood, that's not what I meant." During the explanation, Li Qingyun also picked up the teacup and took a sip of the Tieguanyin brewed by the other party.
The unique fragrance of Tieguanyin tea spreads in the mouth. The taste is pure, the tea soup is rich, and the aftertaste is mellow without any bitterness. It is considered the best among semi-fermented teas. It just does not contain aura, which makes Li Qingyun, who is used to drinking Wu Dao tea, a little bit
Difficult to enter throat.
"Huh? Mr. Li is not satisfied with this top-quality Tieguanyin?" Lei Fangting is indeed a successful businessman and is very good at observing people's emotions. He was extremely surprised when he saw Li Qingyun frown slightly after taking a sip of the top-quality tea that he thought was the best.
Doesn't this greengrocer and doctor always drink better tea?
Li Qingyun hesitated for a moment, not wanting to be too modest, but told the truth: "Uh... I can't say that I am dissatisfied, I just don't like the taste. I planted a few wild tea plants in my hometown in Sichuan, and the taste is acceptable. If there is
If you get the chance, I will have a drink with Director Lei."
Lei Fangting's eyes lit up. If the other party dared to admit that there was better tea, he must be confident. He hurriedly said: "Since there is good tea, there will definitely be a chance to drink it together. Let's talk about business first. Mr. Li has a better tea today."
Come to sell vegetables, what happened?"
"It's nothing. It's just that Manager Bei of your purchasing department thinks my vegetables are too expensive and doesn't dare to order them for fear of being fired by the boss." Li Qingyun answered truthfully.
Lei Fangting was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "How much does Boss Li's vegetables cost per pound, and he actually scared Manager Bei of the purchasing department from buying them?"
"It's not that expensive, it's only three hundred yuan per pound." After Li Qingyun said the price softly, he carefully observed Lei Fangting's reaction.
Lei Fangting was not surprised at all. He frowned and said, "Boss Li, since you dare to offer a sky-high price of three hundred yuan per catty, it shows that your vegetables should have their own uniqueness. Can I see a vegetable sample?"
In business, Lei Fangting felt that even though Li Qingyun had saved him, he did not dare to spit or eat ingredients that he shouldn't have. If Li Qingyun's ingredients did not meet the requirements or were not worth the price, Lei Fangting felt that he would give them to his face.
Even if he has several million dollars as a thank you gift for saving his life, he will not sign a supply agreement with him.
"Of course, I have prepared several boxes of samples. They are all in the car downstairs. Wait a moment, I will go and come back." Li Qingyun said, turned around and went out, walking towards the elevator.
Lei Fangting nodded slightly, and when he saw his back disappeared, he took out his phone and called Manager Bei of the purchasing department.
"Manager Bei, a boss just came to your place to sell vegetables and asked for three hundred yuan per catty. Is this the case?"
Manager Bei felt nervous when he saw the chairman asking about this matter. He didn't have time to think about it, so he replied: "Director Lei, it is true. The quality of the vegetables is good. You can smell the fragrance when you put it in front of your eyes, and it tastes better."
Okay. Unfortunately, the asking price was too high, and I didn’t even dare to bargain. It was three hundred yuan per pound, which far exceeded the price bottom line of our purchasing department, so I refused.”
Lei Fangting hummed softly and said noncommittally, "I understand."
After saying that, he hung up the phone, but Manager Bei's heart was lifted. I don't know what went wrong, but it actually alerted Chairman Lei.
Not long after, Li Qingyun came to the tea room carrying a cardboard box.
After coming in, he didn't say anything. He directly placed the carton on the stool beside him, took out cucumbers, tomatoes and other vegetable samples, and placed them on the table.
Sure enough, as Manager Bei said, when these vegetables are placed in front of you, a natural fragrance emanates, making people salivate.
Lei Fangting was refreshed, and he seemed to be extremely eager to eat these vegetables, just like pica who lacked certain elements in his body. He stared at these vegetables and couldn't move his eyes away.
Seeing his reaction, Li Qingyun knew there was a way out and smiled: "Chairman Lei, I suggest you try it yourself and see if you can see a flower?"
"Haha, that's right. Waiter, come here and help me wash some cucumbers and tomatoes." Lei Fangting laughed to cover up his gaffe, and called the waiter to help wash them.
Several beautiful waiters were stunned. They gathered together and whispered, discussing what happened to Mr. Lei today. He invited a young man dressed in ordinary clothes to make tea by himself and eat vegetables in the tea room. He was possessed by an evil spirit.
?
After muttering, he quickly washed the cucumbers and tomatoes for him, and put them in a fruit plate each. The brightly colored vegetables were placed in the snow-white fruit plate, like sculptural works of art, which were very eye-catching.
Lei Fangting couldn't wait any longer. He picked up a cucumber, took a big bite, and chewed it quickly. After chewing the first bite, his eyes suddenly widened. He finally understood what Manager Bei meant when he said it tasted good. No.
No matter how reserved I was, I ate a whole cucumber in three or two mouthfuls.
"Boss Li, I didn't expect that your vegetable growing skills are far higher than your medical skills. This is the most delicious cucumber I have ever eaten in my life." Lei Fangting didn't know that Li Qingyun had heard such words countless times.
Li Qingyun's expression was calm, as if he had anticipated this situation, and asked directly: "Chairman Lei, how are you doing? Are my vegetables worth three hundred yuan a pound?"
Lei Fangting did not hide his inner thoughts and said: "It's worth it, it's very worth it. If I buy it personally if it's not for use in a hotel, I will buy it if you add a zero. But since it's for use in a hotel, and I
I’m not the only shareholder, so I’ll still ask, is there any possibility of reducing the price of your food?”
"Reducing the price? Haha, if you know that the delicious family in Shanghai has taken the initiative to increase the price to buy more vegetables for me, you will understand why I don't lower the price. Because as long as I am willing, with a phone call, the delicious family will rush to buy these vegetables.
, or even the price will be higher than three hundred yuan. It is precisely because I want to open up the southern market that you have the opportunity to get the supply of these vegetables." Li Qingyun said with great confidence.
Only then did Lei Fangting burst out laughing: "It turns out that Delicious Family's sky-high-priced dishes use ingredients provided by you. No wonder you are so confident. Okay, I will take your vegetables at the price you said. By the way,
Excuse me, where did you grow this vegetable? If it’s in your hometown of Sichuan and Sichuan, it wouldn’t be very convenient.”
"Come on, Mr. Lei, with these vegetables, your hotel can also launch sky-high-priced dishes." Li Qingyun didn't want to hide it, and replied cheerfully, "The planting site is on a nearby island. The environment is good. Have you heard of Moon Island?"
"Moon Island?" Lei Fangting's eyes suddenly lit up and he smiled, "Of course I've heard of it. Is it an island developed by a boss named Wang Chao?"
"Oh? I didn't expect that Director Lei not only knew about Moon Island, but also heard about my partner Wang Chao?" Li Qingyun was a little surprised.
"Not only have I heard of it, I have a close relationship with the Wang family. Since Wang Chao came here, he has been a guest at my house. He often mentions things about Moon Island, and my ears are almost turned into calluses.
"I'm almost ready to invest in becoming the owner of the three islands." Lei Fangting said with a hearty smile. (To be continued.)
