Unexpectedly, Old Man Gan did not accept the dollar. Instead, he said to Su He: "Since we plan to do business sincerely, I can't accept this dollar."
Su He was willing to give him one dollar as a way of showing face and letting go of what happened yesterday.
Old Uncle Gan realized this, so naturally he wouldn't say much.
The two parties stopped until they clicked, and finally agreed to give two cents.
"To be honest, two cents is a bit too much. The pumpkin porridge we cooked didn't put much rice in it. Most of it was pumpkin, which is abundant in the village and not worth the money."
There are also many bamboos in the east and west of Nanzhu Village. Generally speaking, they can grow to about ten pounds.
However, there are also some varieties of pumpkins that can grow to hundreds of kilograms. Su He remembered that the largest pumpkin in the world seemed to weigh close to a thousand kilograms. Of course, that was just an individual, and he had seen it while watching the news in his previous life.
But if this thing is said to be worthless, then it is indeed worthless.
But this year there is a drought in Province J. Pumpkins can also be used as food, and the price has also increased.
Su He nodded: "Then a bowl of pumpkin porridge for the ten of us is 20 cents each. However, lunch and dinner are more expensive, but for the corresponding main meal, we have to eat rice with stir-fried vegetables."
After a few words, the two parties settled on a price that was almost four to five times that of the raw materials.
To be honest, this is not too expensive compared to the high profits of the food industry.
And we also have to consider the location, labor, and seasonings.
If you can have a hot meal along the way.
Su He didn't mind, it was better than asking them to bring some dry food, but the premise was that they couldn't be forced to buy it, and the price couldn't be too outrageous.
For example, a bowl of pumpkin rice cost one or two yuan before. He would never accept this kind of thing.
When old man Gan came out with his son, his son also had some joy on his face.
Uncle Gan glanced at his son and said, "How is it?"
His son just nodded: "Indeed, if we can make some money in this way, we just don't know how many people they can have in their fleet. How many days will they come?"
Uncle Gan sighed: "No matter how frequent they are, even if they come only once a week or even ten days and a half, it's still better than before."
This is a fact. When they did this kind of thing before, they might not be able to see it once every ten days and a half.
The reputation was ruined, but the money received was not as much as expected. After distribution, the whole village did not have much.
Uncle Gan and his son came back, and the good news they brought back made the whole village a little excited.
But some people are still hesitant: "That's what we say now, but it's not certain whether it can be realized in the future."
Uncle Gan said calmly: "We will know if it works or not, but our previous approach cannot last long. Let's give it a try. At most, it will only be a return to the past. There is no loss in that."
Two yuan is indeed a lot and can buy a lot of things, but for the whole village, two yuan is only more than one cent per person.
Everyone thought so, and it was indeed the case.
So he nodded and agreed.
In the morning, Uncle Gan's son traveled to several villages and invited people over.
Su He took a break after eating and was not in a hurry.
The purpose of coming out this time is to open up this road. If these local people can be dealt with, it will undoubtedly provide them with a lot of convenience.
When people from nearby villages arrived, Uncle Gan asked Su He to come over, and everyone held a meeting at Uncle Gan's house.
At the meeting, Su He stated his purpose of opening up this road. There may be many motorcades coming and going, and they may stop for meals on both sides of this road at any time, which is beneficial to each village.
Some of them said that their village was far away and that the convoy might not be able to reach their village at all, which would naturally not be of any benefit to them.
Su He laughed: "Do you have any specialties from your village that you can send over?
Or sell your meals to other villages. When there are more people, there will be more food.
One or two villages will definitely not be able to supply it, so won’t they have to buy it from outside? "
This meeting lasted for a long time, and Su He answered many people at this meeting.
He said that his mouth went dry.
Fortunately, this matter has finally been resolved. For the time being, these villages have maintained a wait-and-see attitude and will not take action easily.
Uncle Gan had people make lunch, and Su He who served him also entertained these people who came from other villages.
It's not easy for everyone, and Old Man Gan didn't say much. If this thing can succeed, there is no doubt that their village will benefit the most.
After dinner, Su He asked Zhai Liang to give him one yuan and fifty cents.
Uncle Gan's son had some ideas before. He felt that the business had not started yet, so he paid for the meal first, and was a little reluctant.
But now I got this one dollar and fifty cents. I felt happy in my heart.
Although this lunch meal cost a bit much, it definitely didn't cost a dollar.
Seeing Su He and the others leaving in the truck, Old Uncle Gan said to his son beside him: "How's it going? I said I'd let you cook. Didn't I take it back now?"
Uncle Gan's son chuckled. As long as he could make money, it didn't matter if he was criticized, not to mention that it was his father who was criticizing him.
In the truck, Zhai Liang was driving now. After resting all morning, his energy was almost restored.
While driving, he was chatting with Su He.
"I didn't expect this time that things would turn out like this. Sure enough, our way of handling things is still too straightforward. We need to learn from you, boss.
Who would have known that what was originally a bad thing would turn out to be a good thing when you, the boss, come to you. "
Su He glanced at him and said with a smile: "Do you also think what I did is right?"
Zhai Liang nodded: "Of course you are right, the journey from Bishui Temple to southern Fujian is not short.
Even if you drive, it will take at least two days.
You can't always eat dry food along the way. If you can spend some money on the way, you can have hot meals.
Being able to rest in the village will make me feel better. The roads along the way are not very good. "
Today's road conditions are far from as good as those of later generations. There are asphalt roads and even highways all over the country.
Many of these roads now are full of potholes, and trucks swaying when they pass by, which is very uncomfortable.
Later, Wang Jin also said with emotion: "If I had the eloquence and ability of my boss at that time, I wouldn't have been blackmailed."
A comrade laughed and said, "Even if you have such eloquence, I'm afraid you won't be able to speak out.
But speaking of it, with your ability, couldn't you just run away at that time?
I think the people in this village can't keep you. After all, you were born as a scout, and your skills have fallen behind. "
He Lang sat aside and said nothing.
But he felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He thought he was just going out to see things this time. Who knew he would encounter such a thing?
