Chapter 603 - 267: Awkward Foreigners_2
Chapter 603: Chapter 267: Awkward Foreigners_2Carrying the luggage all the way to the room, the girl was still excited. She probably had never experience something as thrilling as secretly doing something against the law before! Plus, Yan Fei drove the motorcycle at thrilling speeds all the way, which was incredibly exciting for a well-behaved girl like her.
Yan Fei was also in a pretty good mood. The happier the girl was, the faster the car went, and the tighter she would hug him! Though, the girl was dressed like a giant panda.
After resting for a while from the excitement of their arrival, the girl asked Yan Fei, "What are we doing now?"
"We should call Senior Brother Wang to see if he’s free this afternoon. If he is, we could ask him to dinner!" Yan Fei already had a plan in mind. "Let’s ask Senior Brother Wang where to buy fungus seedlings, and by the way, tell the foreigner that the price of beef has increased. I knew this foreigner couldn’t be trusted. As expected, he’s only enthusiastic in words but actually took advantage of us in the beef deal."
"There aren’t as many wealthy people in our city as there are in Hong Kong! Isn’t it normal that their beef doesn’t sell at high prices?" questioned Miss Xu Xiaoyan.
"Who says? Hong Kong is so small with a limited population. We are a province, with countless wealthy individuals. That foreigner has definitely conned us. Haven’t you noticed how many luxury cars are in the city?"
"Isn’t it inappropriate to suddenly increase the price now when you had already agreed on it? Isn’t this taking advantage of wealth and going back on your words?"
"We keep our word only to our fellow countrymen, not foreigners. Don’t worry. We’re just going to ask him. If he can give me a good reason, then I won’t raise the price. He helped me out a lot at the beginning. However, if he can’t come up with a reason, then he can’t blame me," said Yan Fei without any pressure.
The girl looked at him and couldn’t help but agree, "I guess you’re right. But isn’t the boss our compatriot?"
"Isn’t the boss working with the foreigner? Of course, he would side with the foreigner. Wasn’t it the foreigner who initially promised me a good price for the beef? These traitors are even more hateful than the Japanese..." Yan Fei’s argument made more and more sense. "Don’t worry about it, it’s fine to raise the price. There’s no need to talk about principle when foreign money is entering our territory. Did they talk about principles with us when they launched the Eight-Power Allied Forces?"
"..." Looking at this, the girl thought he was about to speak up for the people and overthrow imperialism. What more could she say?
When the girl didn’t say anything, Yan Fei laughed and said, "We only have a few cows left. Let’s not discuss whether to raise the price or not. I have to scare this guy out first so that he can be prepared in advance. Otherwise, we will always be losing money in the future when we supply beef."
Yan Fei was right. The moment the foreigner saw the contract he was holding, his face became awkward. He stammered, "My dear Xiao Fei, as you know, the consumption level here is lower than Hong Kong. And the beef supply from you only comes once a week, most of which are given to my compatriots and some friends we know..."
"I see, you’re using my beef to curry favors, aren’t you?" Yan Fei interrupted the foreigner by putting away the contract. "Months ago, you have to treat me to make up for this. As for the future price, consider carefully before talking to me! I have prepared the cows for you. In one or two months, I will be able to supply you with beef from one cow every day. If I’m not satisfied with the price you offer, I will just sell it somewhere else...."
This sentence made the foreigner even more awkward!
Since the beef is supplied only once a week, there was no large-scale publicity. Those who come to eat are usually the foreigner’s and the female boss’s friends or friends’ friends, including business clients. Thus, as Yan Fei had said, they used this beef to connect with acquaintances.
As for not selling at a high price, since most customers were acquaintances, they get it at a low cost anyway so there was no need to raise the price. Besides, making money was irrelevant — after all, Yan Fei would bear the loss of supplying beef.
The foreigner might not have deliberately planned to cheat Yan Fei, but there’s an inertia in everything. Since the price had been set and supply couldn’t keep up, he naturally didn’t bring up the price — this was human nature. Nobody would voluntarily raise the price once they’d gotten used to a lower one.
Of course, now that Yan Fei had brought it up, it was indeed awkward for the foreigner to have to see the contract.
Seeing that Yan Fei was distrustful of him since he didn’t let him see the whole contract, only the price section, the foreigner had nothing good to say and could only agree to Yan Fei’s request. "Alright! I will consider this issue as soon as possible and give you an answer."
When the foreigner left, Yan Fei, feeling rather cheerful, put the contract in his bag, turned to Wang Jiuming and another man in his thirties, and said, "These foreigners can’t be relied on. I’ve always thought the price he gave me for the beef was high, but now I know he’s been cheating me. Senior Brother Wang, senior brother Liu, don’t be polite. Let’s enjoy a big meal today. We’re not going to pay, we’ll eat back all the losses I’ve had!"
Today was the weekend, and Wang Jiuming didn’t have any important things to do. When he heard that Yan Fei wanted to buy fungus seedlings, he brought along Liu.
In fact, the identity of Liu, who seemed to have a dark and thin complexion, was quite complicated. According to Wang Jiuming, Liu used to work at a re
But Yan Fei said ’only five acres’ like it was nothing, which seemed somewhat like a slap in the face.
