Chapter 138 The taste of frustration

At dawn, the Li family's yard was as lively as ever. A truckload of mushrooms was loaded, and Li Shaoan took the Qian family's siblings to the town together.

On the way, the three of them were chatting, and naturally talked about Wang Xiangxiu's recent intention to lower the price and engage in a price war.

"Brother Shaoan, you said that Wang Xiangxiu has only been piloting in the village these two days. If she brings the mushrooms to the town and sells them at a low price, won't our mushrooms be sold?" Qian Xiaoyu is even more worried about this than Li Shaoan.

Qian Xiaolin also said angrily: "That is, that Wang Xiangxiu hates it so much, but because she has too many mushrooms, she insists on competing with us, thinking we will be afraid of her! Brother Shaoan, let's build a larger greenhouse and plant more mushrooms than hers. Let's see what she has to be proud of at that time."

Li Shaoan actually considered building a greenhouse. If the floor in the Li family’s backyard is completely opened, at least two more greenhouses can be built larger than the current one.

At that time, the yield will be even more unimaginable in three greenhouses. However, there is still a problem that will bother Li Shaoan, that is, how to sell mushrooms.

In the current state, two or three hundred kilograms of mushrooms are pulled into the town every day, and almost all can be sold out. No matter how much Li Shaoan tried it, there will be a surplus, which means that the current amount is the amount that can be consumed in the town in a day.

"The greenhouse must be continued. The purpose of building a greenhouse is not to defeat Wang Xiangxiu, but to develop ourselves and continue to grow. It is impossible to rely on this greenhouse to continue to continue."

As for the price reduction mentioned by Qian Xiaoyu, Li Shaoan also considered it. Later, he felt that it was unnecessary. At that time, the consumption level of ordinary towns was about one dollar per pound, and ordinary vegetables ranged from one cent to two cents. Mushrooms were more delicate vegetables, so there was no problem selling them for two cents, which was within the acceptance range of town residents.

The per capita income level in the town is much higher than that in Tieshan Bay, so although the price of two cents is also valued, it is definitely not as much for the villagers.

Wang Xiangxiu wanted to win Li Shaoan by relying on price wars. When Li Shaoan already had a good reputation and a stable purchaser, one or two points were useless, unless it was reduced, it would be ruthless.

But this is another more serious problem. If you sell it in the town, the quantity will be much larger than in the village. It is not a big problem to sell it at the bottom price in the village. But if you sell it in the town a few hundred kilograms every day, even the Wang family will not be able to afford it.

When Li Shaoan and the Qian brothers sold out a cart of mushrooms and returned to the village happily, they met Wang Xiangxiu who was driving a ox cart on the road to Yangqiao Town.

In addition to Wang Xiangxiu, her cousin Wang Ergou also sat on both sides. The carriage was filled with two large bamboo baskets full of mushrooms.

Qian Xiaoyu drove the tricycle and leaned over with a smile, and greeted Wang Xiangxiu who was coming towards him, "Sister Xiangxiu, are you going to sell mushrooms? You are too late, we have sold out all our mushrooms!" After saying that, he did not forget to laugh happily.

Wang Xiang was so beautiful that her face turned pale and stared at Qian Xiaoyu. If she hadn't taken into account her image, she would have really wanted to teach this bastard a lesson.

Wang Ergou spoke up for his cousin and shouted: "Qian Xiaoyu, why are you so proud? If you want to say that it was Li Shaoan's mushrooms sold out, you will care about your nonsense."

Qian Xiaoyu said proudly: "Why doesn't it matter to me? Brother Shaoan gives me five dollars a day to sell mushrooms for him. Sister Xiangxiu called you to come and sell mushrooms to you?"

Wang Ergou was also very angry. He had nothing to do with his salary, but he was forced to be threatened by his cousin. He had no choice but to be arrested by the strong man.

"I'll pay Ergou to take care of the wages!" Wang Xiangxiu cursed at Qian Xiaoyu.

Qian Xiaoyu ignored whether Wang Xiangxiu was angry. Since he met him on the road, he was going to disgust you. He smiled and said, "Sister Xiangxiu, you have to sell mushrooms quickly. When the morning passes, your mushrooms will not be new."

Wang Xiangxiu said angrily: "Qian Xiaoyu, are you thinking about it?"

However, Qian Xiaoyu didn't stop at all. As soon as he finished speaking, he drove away without waiting for Wang Xiangxiu to reply.

On the way back to Tieshan Bay, Qian Xiaoyu was very happy. The sarcasm to Wang Xiangxiu just now made all the depression in his heart during this period.

Qian Xiaoyu said complacently: "Sister, did I do a pretty job just now?"

Qian Xiaolin praised her brother with seldom and praised: "Yes, Wang Xiangxiu has been against us, and this time you will be angry with her."

Li Shaoan saw everything. He did not stop Qian Xiaoyu's behavior. He just thought the scene he had just had was very funny. Qian Xiaoyu was quite angry.

After leaving Li Shaoan and the other two, Wang Ergou sat on the ox cart and turned around, as if he had something to say to Wang Xiangxiu. After a long time of work, he finally plucked up his courage and said to Wang Xiangxiu carefully.

"Cousin, I think this is possible when Li Shaoan pays the Qian siblings to pay for the wages."

"Nothing!"

Before Wang Xiangxiu could recover from the anger she had just now, she felt extremely unhappy when she thought of Qian Xiaoyu's stinky fox-like power, and she looked proud in front of her.

When Wang Xiangxiu drove the ox cart to the farmers' market in Yangqiao Town, it was around 11 o'clock in the morning, just at the end of the peak period of the wave of crowds every morning.

When he came to the town to sell mushrooms for the first time, Wang Xiangxiu had no experience, so he had to take a walk in the vegetable market and see several stalls selling mushrooms, and the prices ranged from 18 to 20 cents.

After thinking about it, Wang Xiangxiu finally made up her mind to sell her own mushrooms at 10 cents in the future, hoping that the price advantage can bring more sales.

However, the result was quite different from what Wang Xiangxiu imagined. In her imagination, the mushrooms she brought today would definitely be sold out, and then she drove the ox cart to go home in a glorious manner.

Unfortunately, there are not many people coming to buy mushrooms. It’s noon until noon when the vegetable dealers in the farmers’ markets are off and resting, and the entire farmers’ market is deserted.

"Cousin, it seems that we are not the time to come. The grocery buyers are all having lunch at home at this time." Wang Ergou covered his stomach and said pitifully: "Why don't we go and eat something too, I'm hungry."

"I just know that I can't starve you to death if I eat less."

Wang Xiangxiu was feeling bored and wanted to make a good start, but unexpectedly she was hit by a blow, which made her a little confused.

Having said that, Wang Xiangxiu still gave Wang Ergou one dollar and ordered: "Go and buy some food."

After lunch, the two of them had nothing else to do, so they waited outside the farmers' market, waiting, and it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, there were people coming to buy vegetables in the farmers' market.

"Little girl, how do you sell these mushrooms?" A middle-aged woman in her grade came to the ox cart.

"One cents are eight." Wang Xiangxiu replied casually.

The middle-aged woman said pickyly: "Your mushrooms are not fresh anymore, and they are still so expensive, so why not be cheaper."

When Wang Xiangxiu saw the two baskets of mushrooms, she picked them from around 6 in the morning and waited until now at around 3 in the afternoon. She was exposed to the sun. She looked really wilted and her appearance was not very good.

Wang Xiangxiu did not consider this situation before, because she used to sell it to villagers and picked it now, but now she has to be brought to the town, and the mushrooms are afraid of high temperature and sunlight. It would be strange if they don’t get bad after waiting for such a long time.

"Auntie, why don't you tell me the price?" Wang Xiangxiu had no idea of ​​selling mushrooms at this moment.

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a long time and said, "Or how much is it, I'll buy a few more pounds."

Although he was extremely reluctant, Wang Xiangxiu was deeply helpless when looking at the wilted mushrooms, so she could only nod and agree. The feeling of frustration was really hard to swallow.

Before, I saw Li Shaoan riding a tricycle into and out of the mountain every day, thinking that selling mushrooms was just a simple thing. Until now, Wang Xiangxiu realized the truth that it was difficult to know and difficult to do.

With Wang Ergou's hard shouting and a low-priced promotion of one cent per pound, when the farmers' market closed, the 300 pounds of mushrooms brought by Wang Xiangxiu was sold for 7088.

On the way back, Wang Xiangxiu lowered her head and said nothing. Only Wang Ergou said a few words to herself from time to time.

"Cousin, it's just a trivial matter, don't take it to your heart." Wang Ergou knew that Wang Xiangxiu was arrogant and couldn't help but care about and persuade her.
