The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 823: Mengmeng performed well in school? (6100/1)

Why did Adilijiang and others only call Cao Shujie in December to sell the apples? It was not because the price of apples this year had dropped too much compared to last year, and the disparity was too big.

For example, when Adilijiang and others sold apples in October last year, Xiang Zhengyan quoted them a price of 10 yuan per kilogram, which was equivalent to 6 yuan per kilogram without shipping charges. (There was a problem with the data in the previous chapter and it has been corrected)

By March this year, the price of apples dropped to more than 3 yuan per kilogram.

However, the price decline has not stopped. Until now, in the past few months, the price of apples has not only not increased, but has also dropped to 5 yuan per kilogram.

Moreover, the rumors coming back from various markets show no signs of stopping the decline and rebounding.

Under such circumstances, Adilijiang and the others couldn't hold on, and they never thought about selling this year's apples next year.

In the face of the facts, Adilijiang and the others did not expect the price to be much higher. They just thought they could get a high price in the current market.

The current wholesale price range of apples in the market is also very wide, ranging from 4.2 yuan to 5.3 yuan per kilogram.

Prices vary greatly depending on variety, appearance, sweetness, size, etc.

Like Adilijiang, their apple varieties are better, even in size, sweeter, and more expensive.

Xiang Zhengyan's price quotation for them from the bottom of his heart was 4.8 yuan. This price must have been lowered, but not much.

After Cao Shujie, Yang Shichun and Song Shuli finished talking about the flowers, plants and trees they needed to buy, it was almost noon. Cao Shujie called them to go to Xinjiang Hotel for lunch.

One sentence attracted the eyes of Adilijiang and Harik, and then they heard Xiang Zhengyan say: "If you still insist on this price, I will not be able to make the final decision on the acquisition."

Unconsciously, the three of them drank a pound of liquor. Cao Shujie was still thinking of opening another bottle of wine, but Yang Shichun and Zhao Kuan refused.

When the other party offers a fixed price, will they sell it? Still not selling?

This is a very tangled matter.

When Harik made the offer, Adilijiang and the others also looked at Xiang Zhengyan and Lian Qijian nervously. They hoped that they would agree, but were afraid that they would refuse too firmly and leave room for subsequent negotiations. Lock it up.

A Changji man named Harik held out five fingers and said: "My distinguished friend, what do you think of the price of 5 yuan per kilogram?"

None of them were drunkards, and they didn't drink very fast. They ate Xinjiang food and slowly sipped the liquor Cao Shujie brought over, feeling that this life was interesting.

Based on the friendly cooperative relationship between the boss and Adilijiang for many years, Xiang Zhengyan did not press too hard on the price.

"Manager Xiang, the business is negotiated. The price of 5 yuan is too high. We can negotiate better," Abdullah said.

After listening to Cao Shujie's words, Yang Shichun suddenly realized.

In fact, the price he quoted was not too high.

……

At this moment, time seemed to be frozen.

He nodded and said: "I said that the taste felt very familiar when I ate it before, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

As for the remaining people, they also want to follow suit and sell at a high price, but they also understand that they have no advantage at all in this negotiation.

Xiang Zhengyan and Lian Qijian looked at Harik who had just spoken, then turned to look at the others, pondering their thoughts in their hearts, and suddenly said with a smile: "To be honest with you, this price is high."

Ahati stepped forward to smooth things over: "Abdullah is right, it's still early, let's not be in a hurry, let's talk slowly, I know there is a local dish that is good, let's go over and try it later."

Adilijiang and the others also know the market price and Cao Shujie’s character. In the spirit of long-term cooperation, Adilijiang and the others do not expect the price to be high. Adilijiang and the others have privately discussed whether the price can be given They sell it for 6 to 4 to 9 yuan.

Song Shuli hadn't recovered from her cold yet, so naturally she couldn't drink at noon. Her husband Zhao Kuan had to drive, so he couldn't drink at first, but Cao Shujie said that he would arrange a driver to take them back later. Zhao Kuan didn't know what he was thinking. He and Cao Shujie, Yang Shichun and the others started drinking.

"That's right, a chef from Changji." Cao Shujie introduced to them: "The owner of this restaurant is my friend. His wife is from Changji, Xinjiang. He originally opened a restaurant there. After his wife got married, he moved the restaurant as well. We came here and recruited a group of chefs and waiters from Changji. Many of the raw materials were specially purchased from there. It can be said to be the authentic Xinjiang cuisine."

Yang Shichun had eaten here twice. Cao Shujie happened to be here at this time. Yang Shichun asked him if the chef in this restaurant was from Xinjiang.

"Director Cao, you can't drink anymore. I have to accompany my wife to get an injection in the afternoon." Zhao Kuan said in a hurry.

Cao Shujie was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked him if Sister Song had already finished the infusion in the morning.

"No, she was afraid of delaying your affairs, so she anxiously came over halfway through the infusion." Zhao Kuan said.

Song Shuli glared at her husband and said, "You only have the ability to open your mouth. If you don't know, don't talk nonsense."

Zhao Kuan was so shocked that he was speechless.

Cao Shujie finally understood what was going on this time. He said to Song Shuli with a serious expression: "Sister Song, we can discuss business at any time. We don't have to worry about it for an hour or two. We can't do this again next time."

But Cao Shujie was also touched by the fact that a woman named Song Shuli worked so hard.

After lunch, Yang Shichun returned to the construction site.

Cao Shujie arranged for someone to drive Song Shuli and Zhao Kuan back in their car, and his father, Cao Jianguo, drove to the town to pick up Mengmeng. Cao Shujie learned the lesson this time. He took a shower and changed his clothes before his daughter came back. He smelled the alcohol on his body and had a relieved smile on his face.

Sure enough, Mengmeng did not find out that her father, Cao Shujie, was drinking when she came back.

Three taels or more of liquor was nothing to Cao Shujie, and it was difficult to even show him being drunk.

After Mengmeng came back, she asked her father, when will she attend that annual meeting?

"Ouch, I forgot to ask for leave from your teacher." Cao Shujie really forgot about this.

After Mengmeng heard what her father said, her face fell.

Seeing that he was about to cry if he kept waiting any longer, Cao Shujie was thinking about how to comfort his daughter when she suddenly heard Mengmeng pouting and saying, "Dad, don't you want me to go?"

"How could it be? Mengmeng, dad will send you to school tomorrow and ask for leave from Teacher Zhang." Cao Shujie raised his fingers and swore to the sky.

He said, "Hey, when dad asks you, Teacher Zhang, for leave tomorrow, can you follow me?"

Upon hearing this, Mengmeng quickly nodded and agreed.

……

On the morning of the second day, Cao Shujie drove to the town with his daughter. He first sent Mengmeng to the town central primary school. When he saw Zhang Xinyu, the head teacher of Mengmeng's class, Cao Shujie held his daughter Mengmeng's hand and walked over: " Teacher Zhang, I have something to tell you."

"Dad Cao Xuemeng, you can just say it." She said from the bottom of her heart that when Zhang Xinyu saw Cao Shujie, she felt a lot of pressure in her heart.

Cao Shujie has too many identities, and there are too many honors and titles attached to Cao Shujie. In Zhang Xinyu's eyes, Cao Shujie is an absolute big shot.

"That's what happened. I have something to do on the 21st of this month. I have to take Mengmeng out for about a week..."

Before Cao Shujie finished speaking, Zhang Xinyu said: "Dad Cao Xuemeng, you mean to ask for a week's leave for classmate Cao Xuemeng, right? This is no problem. Classmate Cao Xuemeng is usually very well-behaved and her study progress is also good. She's faster than the kids in the class, so I'm not worried about her missing class."

Mengmeng was very happy when she heard that Teacher Zhang agreed.

She also said thank you to Teacher Zhang.

Seeing Mengmeng running into the school happily, Cao Shujie smiled and chatted with Zhang Xinyu for a while to learn about Mengmeng's situation in school.

In Zhang Xinyu's narration, Cao Shujie heard all about Mengmeng's advantages, including her good study, strong management skills, strong self-discipline, and good communication with classmates, and could not hear any shortcomings at all.

This made Cao Shujie seriously suspect that Mengmeng had two faces at school and at home. Otherwise, how could she have deceived Teacher Zhang?

Before leaving, Cao Shujie told teacher Zhang Xinyu that if Mengmeng was naughty in school, just call him in time or just beat Mengmeng directly.

Fortunately, Mengmeng was not here, otherwise Mengmeng would have been anxious on the spot.

After Cao Shujie left here and went to the factory, He Ruijia came over and asked Cao Shujie what he needed to prepare to attend the Ali annual meeting on the 21st.

Cao Shujie thought about it and decided to bring some agricultural and sideline products.

He told He Ruijia, and He Ruijia went to prepare.

A few days flew by.

On this day, Cao Shujie was reviewing documents in the office when his cousin Wang Shouzhi knocked on the door and came in.

"Shou Zhi, sit down quickly." Cao Shujie stood up.

Ask his cousin what's the matter?

Then he heard his cousin say that he had just decided on a wedding date, and on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, he would come over and tell Cao Shujie.

"This is a good thing, I have been looking forward to it." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

Wang Shouzhi planned to go to Caojiazhuang in the next two days to tell his aunt and uncle in person about his marriage.

"It's the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, right? Then I'll remember it." Cao Shujie said.

"Shouzhi, how are you doing here?" Cao Shujie asked his cousin.

He was very satisfied when he heard from his cousin that everything was going well and his job was stable. He was now becoming more and more skilled in developing market customers and was getting a lot of commissions every month.

After hearing this, Cao Shujie said: "Okay, if you think you can do it, just do it. The company has plans to establish a sales office in other places next. If you want to give it a try, you can consider it."

Wang Shouzhi understood that his cousin was doing this for his own good, but now Wang Shouzhi was only thinking about getting married first, and it would be better to have another child.

At this juncture, he really didn't want to stay outside.

But he still told his cousin that he would seriously consider it.
