Xuefeng Town, the inner hall of the inn,
With Yu Xiaoyu's initiative, the atmosphere in the inner hall instantly became extremely friendly.
Wei Ba even took the initiative and asked the waiter to bring several tables of delicious food.
Finally, after it turned completely dark, Boss Huang appeared in the inner hall with a tired look on his face.
Seeing the rightful owner return, Wei Ba took the lead and stepped forward and said:
"Boss Huang, we want to talk to you about food prices."
Boss Huang spread his hands and said helplessly:
"Old Wei, it's not that Huang doesn't want to talk to you, but those people have fixed the price of food, and Huang is in a dilemma."
"However... Huang would like to advise you that you have been making money for so long, and it is time to give up some of the profits."
"If you continue to insist on not lowering prices, grain dealers from other places will rush in. By then, no one will look good!"
When Wei Ba heard this, his face turned green with anger.
He suddenly stood up from the wooden chair and said with a gloomy face:
"Boss Huang, what do you mean? The contract they signed with us had a set price."
"Why, now that an outside grain merchant is here, they want to lower our prices?"
"Boss Huang, you are also from Xuefeng Town. You know how cheap grain hurts farmers. If the price goes down further, how will the people who farm the land make a living?"
Boss Huang was too lazy to pay attention to what Wei Ba said. He waved his hand impatiently and said:
"Don't tell me these things. Huang is just a messenger. If you don't agree to lower the price, then it's understandable for them to contact grain merchants from other places."
After saying this, he turned around and scanned everyone, and finally laid his eyes on Yu Xiaoyu.
"This little brother is the one with the salt block in his hand?"
"Come on, come on, please come in and talk in detail. I guarantee that the boss's price will satisfy the little brother."
After saying that, he grabbed Yu Xiaoyu's arm and planned to go through the inner hall to his backyard.
His operation immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Wei Ba and other local grain merchants.
They stepped forward almost at the same time and blocked Boss Huang's way.
This time, Wei Ba spoke again, but his tone was no longer pleading, but rather a bit tough.
"Boss Huang, you have to give us an explanation for this matter. After all, it was you who single-handedly facilitated the grain sale."
"Brothers, in order to handle your affairs well, so many old friends who have worked together for many years have offended all of them."
"I'm afraid it's not very authentic for you to do things like this."
When Boss Huang heard this, his expression turned gloomy.
He stood still, stared at Wei Ba and the others coldly and said:
"Why, you are too soft now, so you are going to be tough, right?"
"But Mr. Huang advises you, it's best to stay calm. Think about the skills of those people on the mountain. Are ordinary people like you able to offend them?"
"Letting you make money is already a great favor. Don't be ignorant of good and evil!"
As Boss Huang said, he glanced coldly at the grain merchants, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Let's do this. Since the cooperation was quite pleasant before, for every kilogram of grain, Huang will give you the price of grain merchants from other places, plus half a penny."
"If you still feel that you are at a disadvantage, the door is right over there, so please leave without waiting!"
After saying that, Boss Huang no longer bothered to talk to Wei Ba and others, and walked into the room with Yu Xiaoyu.
At this moment, Yu Xiaoyu was basically 90% sure that he had found the right place this time.
He followed Boss Huang and sat at a square table.
Boss Huang was even more attentive and took the initiative to pour him a cup of hot tea. Then he said:
"Little brother, let's open the skylight and speak frankly today. Honestly, how many salt blocks do you have in your hand?"
When Yu Xiaoyu heard this, there was a hint of hesitation on his face.
After pondering for a while, he opened his mouth and said:
"Actually...it's not much. Now it's just the size of a carriage..."
"Just a cartload of salt cubes?"
Boss Huang was immediately disappointed, and even his eyes towards Yu Xiaoyu became indifferent.
"That's all, with such a quantity, it's not really a big business."
"How about your market price increasing by 30%?"
"If nothing happens, please leave."
After saying that, Boss Huang was too lazy to look at Yu Xiaoyu again. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, as if to see off the guests.
Yu Xiaoyu did not stand up, but whispered:
"Boss Huang, you may have some misunderstanding."
"Although I currently only have one cart of salt blocks, it doesn't mean that I only have one cart of salt blocks."
Speaking of this, he deliberately lowered his voice and whispered:
"To be honest with Boss Huang, I have just reached an agreement on cooperation with Wei Ba and the others."
"How about we provide this salt block to you from now on?"
As soon as these words came out, Boss Huang's eyes instantly lit up.
The original indifference on his face melted away in an instant, and was replaced by a face full of joy.
"Little brother, do you really have so many salt cubes?"
Yu Xiaoyu nodded and said:
"Replace it if it's fake!"
"well!"
Boss Huang slammed the table twice excitedly, but soon regained his composure.
He looked at Yu Xiaoyu seriously and said:
"But... little brother, are you sure you want to share the profits from the salt blocks with those old guys outside?"
"They are all cannibals. Don't look at how they all groveled in front of Huang just now. But in fact, I don't even bother to talk about the things they did behind the scenes!"
When Yu Xiaoyu heard this, he nodded helplessly.
"Boss Huang thinks that if I eat meat, they won't even be able to drink soup. Will they let my business continue smoothly in Xuefeng Town?"
"What you said makes sense."
After Boss Huang thought to himself for a moment, he finally nodded.
"However...Huang still feels that the price you paid this time is not small."
"That's all, bring over some more salt cubes, and the rest will be easy to talk about. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
When Yu Xiaoyu heard this, he nodded gratefully towards Boss Huang, but then, there was a trace of confusion on his face.
"Boss Huang, I have a question, and I would like to ask Boss Huang to clarify it."
"Why does the boss you mentioned need such a large amount of salt blocks?"
"Other than people eating horse chews, this thing doesn't seem to have any other use."
As soon as these words came out, Boss Huang's cheeks immediately showed a hint of alertness.
He took a deep look at Yu Xiaoyu and said secretly:
"Little brother, there are some things that it's better not to know, what do you think?"
"You make money, and I can also get some benefits from it. This is a matter of mutual benefit and win-win."
"But if you insist on getting to the bottom of it, I'm afraid this deal won't be done."
