"Shopkeeper Liu, wait for me!"
Fatty Liu from Bazhenlou was about to get in the car when he was stopped by Cui Zhongqing who was chasing after him.
"Second Young Master Cui?"
"Give me a ride!"
"Okay!" Fatty Liu nodded: "Second Young Master Cui is not afraid that I won't repay you the twelve dollars!"
Who carries dozens of kilograms of copper coins when they go out? So after buying the MSG just now, Cui Zhongqing loaned Fatty Liu twelve dollars to pay the bill.
As for why Cui Zhongqing carries so much money...
After getting in the car and sitting down, the car drove slowly towards Chang'an.
"What kind of place is this Shanghe Village?" Fatty Liu, who came here for the first time, had many questions.
If nothing else, this section of the road in Shanghe Village is much better than other places. Although it is also a dirt road, it has been made smooth and a lot of gravel has been filled in and compacted. of.
"Master, haven't you seen it? It's little brother Tang just now!"
Cui Zhongqing looked at Fatty Liu with a smile and said.
"Second Young Master Cui is the one we met last time when Brother Tang went to Wangshulou to sell wine?" Fatty Liu also laughed: "Then it stands to reason that the relationship between us is better, so you shouldn't help him today. Wouldn't it be over if you just sell this MSG to me during this auction?"
I said this half-jokingly and half-seriously, so you can listen to it however you want.
"Hahaha, shopkeeper Liu, do you think it's too expensive?"
"It's not that it's expensive, but you also know that our Bazhen Tower is a small business..."
"Come on!" Cui Zhongqing smiled: "You just think it's too expensive!"
The two looked at each other, and then Fatty Liu smiled bitterly and said, "I do think it's a bit expensive, but do you think it's okay if I don't buy it?"
"You know? Brother Tang told me a joke today."
"What joke?" Fatty Liu didn't know why Cui Zhongqing wanted to tell him a joke at this time, but he still asked curiously.
"He was the one who analyzed the psychology of rich people for me."
“The psychology of rich people?”
"Yes, he said that the most expensive and most useless things in the world are called luxury goods."
"Why are luxury goods so expensive even though they are of no use? It's because in the minds of rich people, they always want to distinguish themselves from people without money."
"If you don't have something I can buy, I'll be one step ahead of you! Sometimes their consumer mentality is not to seek the best, but to seek the most expensive!"
This statement seemed unreasonable, but when Fatty Liu thought about it carefully, it seemed to make sense.
Cui Zhongqing continued: "Shopkeeper Liu bought this MSG today with ten thousand gold..."
"It's 12,000 yuan!" Fatty Liu interrupted, his body still hurts now!
"Okay, okay, twelve thousand dollars! If you buy five kilograms of MSG at this price, what do you think will happen to those powerful people who think they are rich if this news reaches Chang'an?"
Fatty Liu was originally a human spirit, but he just didn't think of this for a while. Now that Cui Zhongqing mentioned it, this matter has been straightened out!
"Hahaha! In this case, I have to thank Mr. Cui this time!"
Most of those who open restaurants rely on regular customers, especially large restaurants like theirs.
If you want to continue to develop, you have to attract customers from other places, but how easy is it?
But now, this MSG has become an opportunity. After all, as Cui Zhongqing said, the mentality of rich people is like this. If I haven’t eaten the things you have eaten, then I will lose face, so I have to go. Eat, eat, make up for this noodles.
"Hey, don't wait to thank me. I have a good thing to do. If you think it's okay after listening to it, you are thanking me!"
"Oh? Is there anything else good? Mr. Cui, please stop showing off!"
"Hey, do you think I want to squeeze into a car with a fat guy like you? I was also entrusted by Brother Tang. He asked you if you want to buy out this MSG?"
"Buyout?"
"Yes, just wrap up all the MSG this year!"
"Hiss..." Fatty Liu didn't expect that Tang Ping would make such a request. He thought about it and asked, "How much more do I have to add?"
The shopkeepers of other restaurants are not stupid. After the news of MSG spreads after returning this time, the business of their Bazhen Restaurant will definitely increase greatly.
How can other restaurants not be jealous by then? Then if I come back to sell it next month, can I still get these five kilograms of MSG for 12,000 yuan?
So if Tang Ping now packages and sells all the MSG for a year to himself, then the price increase is certain.
As a result, Cui Zhongqing's next words made him think that he was hearing hallucinations.
"Brother Tang said, for my sake, if you apply for an annual pass, I will give you a 10% discount."
"Annual pass? 10% off?"
"Yes, it means that if you can round up a year's supply of MSG, he will give you a 10% discount!" Cui Zhongqing didn't know why Tang Ping said what he said about getting an annual pass, but just follow what he said.
"Yes, you must apply for the card this year!"
Fatty Liu is not stupid. If he buys this MSG, he will definitely ask the cook to study it. I will tell you whether he can study it.
And other restaurants will definitely want to buy MSG research from Tang Ping, so next month there will definitely be a battle between dragons and tigers.
But if you apply for this annual pass, at least within this year, other people will not be able to get MSG anymore.
As for whether Tang Ping could be trustworthy, he didn't consider it at all. Didn't Second Master Cui propose Tang Ping as the guarantor?
No wonder when many shopkeepers asked Tang Ping how to sell MSG next month, Tang Ping gave him a slap in the face and ignored them. It turned out that they were waiting for him here.
This matter is actually a win-win result.
The benefits of the MSG bought out by Shopkeeper Liu are the same as what he just said.
Tang Ping did this because he was a salty fish and wanted to be at peace. Auctioning once a month was too much trouble.
What's more, these restaurant owners don't have time to discuss today. What if, just in case, they collude and want to jointly lower the price?
However, some troublesome things have arisen, and I have to find a way to solve them.
It's better to sell all this year's MSG to Shopkeeper Liu once and for all.
As for Cui Zhongqing, Tang Ping first gave him a lot of gifts, and he was able to find a good deal with Shopkeeper Liu.
"Liu thanked Mr. Cui!" No, after hearing what Cui Zhongqing said, Fatty Liu kept thanking him.
And I have already begun to think about whether the annual pass can be promoted in my restaurant.
In his opinion, he and Tang Ping were not related to each other, and there was no need for the other party to give him such a discount. All this probably really looked at Cui Zhongqing's face.
He naturally didn't expect that selling things for a salty fish like Tang Ping would be a helpless move.
In the beginning, the auction was sold on a monthly basis because items would have been more expensive if taken apart.
Tang Ping believed that if he were to auction sixty kilograms of MSG for a year, he would probably not be able to sell it at this price, so he only sold it for one month, and then hired Cui Zhongqing to be the lobbyist.
