Chapter 895
“O! It’s Da Long, here to sell herbs again!”
The middle-aged man smiled, then after looking at Lin Ran, he led the man next to him straight into Cao Wang’s office.
“Who’s this guy?”
Lin Ran asked.
“Who else could it be, the general manager of this herb market, Cao Wang’s own uncle, Cao Delei!”
Dalong said enviously.
“What about the one next to him?”
Lin Ran continued.
“That’s a buyer, I’ve met him, he buys so many herbs every time he comes! Hey, when will our village get to know a buyer of this level!”
While Dalong was full of envy, Lin Ran had a light in his eyes and a solution in mind.
“Boss, what’s wrong with you?”
Seeing that Lin Ran did not say anything, Da Long was a bit worried, after all, this was just the beginning and Lin Ran had touched a nose, he was also afraid that Lin Ran would lose his motivation.
“Boss, or else forget it, I’ll send something to that boy Cao Wang later to talk and make peace!”
Big Dragon persuaded.
Lin Ran, however, made a pose at him to say something, and then stood in the doorway without saying a word.
Seeing that Lin Ran did not say anything, Dalong did not dare to speak either, and the two of them just stood there, just like the doorman.
However, he did not know that Lin Ran’s attention had already run inside the office at this time, where a door could block Lin Ran’s ears.
……
In the room, seeing someone come in, Cao Wang thought it was Da Long and Lin Ran running back again, and without raising his head, he angrily scolded.
“Get out, I said I was busy with something, didn’t listen …..”
“What are the B*****ds doing!”
Before Cao Wang could finish his words, Cao Delei angrily scolded out.
Once he saw that it was his own uncle who had come, Cao Wang was so frightened that he hurriedly turned off the landlord and busily stood up.
“Uncle …… Uncle!”
“Uncle what uncle, what are you doing during working hours!”
Cao Delei was so angry that his face turned blue.
He could clearly remember that the last general manager of the herb market had been removed from office in the end because of favouritism and fraud.
He had been working very hard to get into this position, and he had always been very conscientious, even his own nephew didn’t want to get in, but he couldn’t resist the family’s arguments and finally agreed to do so.
“Old Cao, forget it! I’m not an outsider!”
The middle-aged man next to him laughed.
“Old He has laughed at me!”
Cao Delei had an embarra*sed face and turned his head to scold Cao Wang angrily.
“Why are you still standing there, where are the herbs you were told to prepare!”
“It’s ready, it was ready a long time ago!”
Cao Wang was so scared that he was sweating profusely, and hurriedly brought over the prepared herbs, two big bags of them.
“Old He, take a look!”
Cao Delei laughed.
“Mmm!”
Old He nodded and immediately went up to take a look, but the two big bags could not be seen below, so he could only look at the top layer.
Only with this look, Old He was frowning.
“Old Cao, why is this batch of herbs not as good as the last batch? I remember that there were some very good colour herbs in the last batch, why is there nothing left this time?”
“What’s going on?”
Cao Delei looked at Cao Wang, who was in charge of the herbs, he didn’t know much about it.
“This …..”
Cao Wang was a little hesitant at once.
Because in the previous batch of herbs, the very good ones were sent by Lin Jiawan, but recently, Lin Jiawan didn’t send any herbs, and with what just happened, I’m afraid that they won’t be sent in the future, how can this be explained.
“That’s right!”
Suddenly, Cao Wang thought of a reason and said with a busy smile.
“It’s like this, that Lin Jiawan that delivered the medicine before, because it’s too poor, this herb they don’t pick anymore, so there won’t be any in the future!”
“O?”
Old He sighed with a slight frown at his words.
“That’s really a pity!”
“It’s alright, Uncle He I’ll help you find some more good herbs in the future and save them all for you!”
Cao Wang was busy laughing, he was clear about the strength of this Uncle He in front of him, that was the biggest herb processor in the whole town, if he could get on good terms with him, his future was not waiting to soar in the future.
“Well, then we can only wait slowly!”
Old He was a little disappointed.
However, just as his voice fell, a voice came from the doorway, while two figures walked in.
“It’s not working, Mr. He, if you need our herbs from Lin Jia Wan, I think we can talk about it!”
“Who let you in, get out!”
Seeing that it was Lin Ran and Da Long, Cao Wang’s face suddenly changed and he hurriedly shouted.
“You are?”
Old He looked at the two, he didn’t know Lin Ran and Big Dragon.
“Lin Ran, this is my friend Dalong, we’re both from Lin Jiawan, we’re here to sell herbs this time!”
Lin Ran said with a smile.
“O?”
Old He smiled and instantly became interested.
“Uncle He, these two are liars, you can’t be fooled by them, there aren’t many good people in Linjiawan!”
Cao Wang saw this and quickly said.
Lin Ran, however, disliked him straight back.
“I know best if there are any good people in our Lin Jia Wan, but I also know very well what kind of person you Cao Wang are!”
Saying that, Lin Ran turned his head to look at Old He and laughed.
“Mr. He, do you think a person who uses inferior herbs indiscriminately is a good person?”
“Naturally not!”
Old He said blandly, while Cao Delei at the side was already frowning slightly, his heart vaguely uneasy.
“Good! Then I can tell you responsibly that these two bags of herbs in front of you, only the surface layer is still okay, the underside has all gone mouldy!”
Lin Ran pointed at the two bags of herbs Cao Wang held out and swore.
“What nonsense, how could Laozi’s herbs be mouldy!”
Cao Wang was instantly anxious, Old He was a very big customer of theirs, if they offended him, not to mention themselves I’m afraid even Cao Delei would be heartbroken.
“Young man, I admire your courage, but you will be held responsible for talking out of turn in public!”
Cao Delei said in a cold voice.
“Whether it is a lie or not, we will know if we open it and see, but when we see the truth, I hope General Manager Cao will not defend your nephew!”
Lin Ran said indifferently.
“If this is the truth, I will naturally handle the matter impartially!”
Cao Delei said solemnly.
“Good!”
Lin Ran clapped his hands, followed by a step forward, and with a wave of his palm, the two bags of herbs split apart with a “bang”, and the herbs inside were scattered all over the ground.
Looking at them, the mouldy and hairy herbs were simply too clear.
“How is this possible!”
Seeing this ground full of herbs, Cao Wang was immediately dumbfounded, he remembered very clearly that these herbs were all packed under his personal watch last night, how could they have suddenly gone mouldy.
“Cao Wang!”
Cao Delei’s eyes went red at once, this was simply lying to Old He, how could he explain it clearly.
“Uncle, it’s not like that, I personally watched the loading, ? It can’t be mouldy!”
Cao Wang was so anxious that he could not defend himself.
Old He, on the other hand, looked on quietly without speaking.
“Mr. He, now you should be able to tell who is credible!”
Lin Ran said, taking down his two backpacks and placing them on the ground, laughing.
“Of course, you can take a look at our goods from Lin Jia Wan first, before making your decision!”
Chapter 896
“O?”
Old He became interested at the sight and immediately took out some herbs to watch.
There were two kinds of herbs that Lin Ran had brought with him, namely Golden Silver Flower and Snake Tongue Herb, which were the two most abundant herbs on the hills behind their Lin Jiawan, and were also the two main ones that Lin Ran would focus on in the future.
Moreover, as they were natural and wild, and the area around Linjiawan had not been polluted, the quality of the herbs was quite good.
“Good! This herb is of superior quality, just what I need!”
Old He was very excited.
“It’s good that Mr. He is satisfied!”
Lin Ran smiled and nodded his head.
“But!”
Suddenly, Old He, however, frowned slightly and asked.
“But your Lijiawan is in a remote location, if I were to arrange for people to pick it I’m afraid the cost would be too high for this …..”
“Mr. He can rest a*sured, you do not need to contribute manpower, from now on this herb we Lin Jiawan to supply, but you need to send a car to the village to collect, the price must also be given to us according to the market price, this is my condition!”
Lin Ran spoke.
Seeing that Lin Ran had already started talking to Old He about cooperation, Cao Delei, who was at the side, panicked.
“Hey, hey, Old He, Lin Ran! That’s not right, the herbs from Lin Jiawan used to be sent to our herb market, how come you guys are still trying to sign a contract privately!”
According to the previous practice, herbs sent to their market had to sign a contract, if there was such private cooperation between the supplier and the buyer, if they were found out, they would have to pay a breach of contract.
“That’s also true!”
Old He frowned, in fact he would prefer to work with Lin Ran alone, after all, it would save a large amount of overheads.
“That was the reasoning before, but not anymore!”
Lin Ran, however, laughed.
“What do you mean?”
Cao Delei’s face sank and he glanced at Cao Wang next to him, feeling in his heart that something had gone cold again.
“Little friend Lin Ran, what do you mean by that?”
Old He also asked, with a little more anticipation in his heart.
“It’s simple!”
Lin Ran laughed.
“Because Lin Jiawan’s herbs have never signed a contract with their Medicine Talent Market at all! What’s this talk of a breach of contract?”
“No contract was ever signed?”
Old He was delighted at his words, having seen a business opportunity.
“How can you not have signed a contract? How did you get your herbs in without a contract?”
Cao Delei questioned, he was confident that this year through his management, the management system of the herb market was quite perfect, how could there still be this kind of supply relationship without a signed contract!
“General Manager Cao, there was indeed no contract signed!”
On the side, Da Long was laughing.
“What is going on?”
Cao Delei looked at Cao Wang and questioned.
“Uncle …… This matter is …… It’s more complicated!”
Cao Wang stammered.
Da Long, who was on the other side, spoke up instead.
“General Manager Cao, this matter is really not that complicated!”
“Ao? You tell me!”
Cao Delei looked at Dalong, his eyes micronized.
“It’s very simple! Because this is your own nephew’s intention!”
Da Long said.
“You bullSh*t! When did I ever say that!”
Cao Wang retorted at once.
“You did not explicitly say so, but isn’t that what you meant? Without a contract, it’s not the property of your herb market, so aren’t you making a difference by buying it at a low price and buying it at a high price?”
Big Dragon sneered.
“You ….. You’re nonsense!”
Cao Wang’s face turned blue for a while.
“I’m bullSh*tting?”
Big Dragon laughed as he turned his head to look at Cao Delei and laughed.
“General Manager Cao, am I bullSh*tting, just send someone around to ask around, how many villages have been directly cut off by your own nephew because the amount of herbs is too small, and put the money into their own pockets! Do I need to be more specific?”
“That’s enough!”
Cao Delei scolded with an ugly look on his face.
“Cao Wang! From now on, you don’t fire!”
“Uncle!”
Cao Wang instantly felt as if lightning had struck him, and his entire body directly went limp and sat down on the ground.
“Old Cao, isn’t this too harsh?”
On the side, Old He frowned, he hadn’t said anything from the beginning to the end.
“It’s not hard enough to right the law, I don’t want to be the first general manager to be removed from office!”
Cao Delei said in a cold voice.
“It’s still General Manager Cao who understands righteousness, in that case, we’ll take our leave!”
Lin Ran laughed and turned around to leave.
Cao Delei was not willing to let Lin Ran go so easily and hurriedly stepped forward and said.
“Little friend Lin Ran, please stay!”
“Does General Manager Cao still have something to do?”
Lin Ran asked with a smile.
“This is the case, what happened before was all my nephew’s fault, I am here to apologise, but this private cooperation between you and Old He is indeed a bit inappropriate, and for security reasons, it is safest to go through our market!
Cao Delei said with a smile.
“Not proper? One of us ships and one of us pays, what’s wrong with that?”
Lin Ran laughed.
“That’s not true, there are many factors involved in this transaction, besides, it’s safer to go through our herb market!”
Cao Delei said busily.
This time, before Lin Ran could say anything, Old He on the side laughed.
“I think it’s better to drive in the long run, or go through the herb market!”
“That’s right!”
Cao Delei was instantly delighted, and was busy laughing.
Lin Ran also laughed at this, they understood the relationship between Cao Delei and Lao He, and in essence, it was just as Lao He was wrong, going to the herb market was relatively stable, after all, the market was there and would not run, and the most fearful thing about working with private individuals was paving the way.
Thinking of this, Lin Ran laughed and said.
“In fact, it’s the same for me with whoever I work with, I won’t change the conditions, as for who I work with you guys can discuss it!”
“No need to negotiate, just follow what you said before, market price and we’ll send a car to the village to pick it up!”
Cao Delei said at once.
“General Manager Cao, then you’re not making any profit here!”
Lin Ran laughed, the market price into the market price to sell to Lao He, where was the profit to be made, even with the labour costs.
“I’ll consider this time to give Lin Ran brother you Lin Jia Wan to compensate for the wrong, money is not important, the important thing is to make sure to earn back this reputation!”
Cao Delei was serious, but Lin Ran smiled and didn’t say anything.
He didn’t understand that Cao Delei was an old man who had become an expert. At present, Lin Jiawan only provided honeysuckle and snake tongue herb, but Lao He was obviously a big customer, so he couldn’t just need these two kinds of herbs.
But as long as Old He was tied to their herb market, the other herbs the former needed in the future would still have to go to their herb market, and if Linjiawan’s herbs couldn’t make money, then it would be better to earn from elsewhere.
“Good! In that case, then you guys prepare the contract!”
Lin Ran said with a smile.
“Good! I’ll go and prepare it now!”
Cao Delei immediately sent someone to prepare the contract, while greeting Lin Ran and the others to sit down in his office and chatted away.
Old He had always had a question that he wanted to ask, so when he saw that he had time, he opened his mouth and asked.
“Little friend Lin Ran, I wonder how much of these two herbs your Linjiawan can provide each year?”
Lin Ran smiled and was silent for a moment, then spoke.
“Based on the current workforce, we can probably provide 500,000 catties of snake tongue herb and 400,000 catties of honeysuckle a year! Of course later on, as the labour force returns to their hometowns, the quantities will be even higher!”
“A whole year of these quantities …… It’s a bit small!”
Old He frowned a little.
