Boss Tan said with an arrogant look and his head held high.

Liu Wu bowed repeatedly, smiling apologetically, "Boss Tan, underwriting is good, but... the price you offered is a bit low... Look, these premium cucumbers are a rarity in this season... Last year, who would have thought we could still eat cucumbers in winter?"

"In the vegetable market, cucumbers cost 15 cents per pound. If you're lucky, you can get 18 cents... You only give me 6 cents per pound. That's too low. I'm going to lose money..."

"Hey, can wholesale and retail be the same price?"

"Boss Tan, although wholesale is cheaper, it's not that much cheaper... Vegetable business is all about pennies. You're a big boss, and even if you only make two cents per kilogram of vegetables, that's still a lot of money... We vegetable growers are different. Every penny counts for us..."

The reason why Liu Wu decided to grow greenhouse vegetables was because he saw that these "rare" vegetables are much more expensive than those in normal seasons.

Moreover, as long as greenhouse cultivation strictly follows the technical guidance of agricultural technicians, the yield can also be very high.

The yield of autumn cucumbers can reach 15,000 to 20,000 kilograms per mu.

The yield of spring cucumbers is higher, reaching 30,000 kilograms. Of course, the selling price is different.

At this time of year, cucumbers can be sold for 1.5 yuan at retail and 1.2 yuan at wholesale. A yield of 20,000 jin per mu would earn 2,400 yuan.

He rented more than three acres of land in total. According to the most optimistic estimate, after deducting all expenses, he could make a net profit of two to three thousand yuan in a year.

That's higher than the salary of most cadres.

Boss Tan was the sole seller and only offered him six cents per pound. How could he agree to that?

"Six points is already very high, don't be ungrateful!"

Boss Tan said with a sneer.

Liu Wu continued to smile and said, "Boss Tan, but you only gave them one cent each!"

For large wholesale and one-time shipment, one cent per pound is acceptable.

After all, Boss Tan also has to pay shipping costs and labor to transport the goods to Daning for sale.

Liu Wu is an honest man. He believes that in order to do business in the long run, everyone must make money.

Boss Tan snorted, his face full of disdain.

"Can you compare with them?"

"They are all locals from the Qi Chong Brigade."

Liu Wu smiled and said, "Boss Tan, when it comes to growing vegetables, there's no distinction between locals and outsiders, right? Aren't the vegetables we grow the same?"

“The food is the same, but the people are different.”

Boss Tan was too lazy to waste time talking to him and directly issued an ultimatum.

"Liu Wu, don't blame me for not warning you. You have to sell this dish whether you want to or not. Otherwise, I guarantee you won't be able to stay in Qi Chong anymore. You will lose all your capital!"

After hearing such naked threats, Liu Wu was furious. His forced smile froze on his face. He said stiffly, "Boss Tan, don't try to scare me. I, Liu Wu, was not raised to be scared."

"Now the government is adhering to the law, and when you do business, you must also abide by the rules."

"How can one be so overbearing and domineering in business?"

"Six cents a pound for cucumbers, that doesn't make sense!"

"I won't sell it!"

"Haha, okay, then just wait for me!"

Boss Tan flicked his finger, and the cigarette butt in his hand flew out with a "whoosh", falling on the top of the plastic film of the greenhouse and instantly burning a hole in it.

"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"

"I'll pay you back!"

Boss Tan said a few harsh words, turned onto the main road, got on a light motorcycle, stepped on the pedal, and black smoke came out from the back of the motorcycle as it sped away.

In 80, he was able to ride a motorcycle. Boss Tan is really an awesome guy.

Looking at the motorcycle going away, Liu Wu's lover came closer and said worriedly: "Liu Wu, are you okay?"

"Boss Tan is a local from Qi Chong..."

Liu Wu said angrily, "Even if he's a local, he can't do this. At six cents a pound, we're definitely going to lose money. I don't believe he'd dare to come and hit us!"
