Reborn in 1985: From Selling Braised Duck to Becoming the World's Richest Man

Wang Ren's answer clearly did not satisfy these people.

These people all had expressions on their faces as if they were about to cry, and said:

"Director Wang, you should talk to Boss Liang. You're the director, he'll definitely listen to your opinion."

"Yes, we are all from Taoyuan Township. I believe Boss Liang would not stand by and watch someone die."

"Yes, yes, Director Wang, as long as you ask, Boss Liang will agree."

Hearing these people's words, Wang Ren's face showed a helpless expression.

Wang Ren recognized many of the people in front of him.

After all, they were all from Taoyuan Township and were all in business, so they would inevitably meet up sometime.

But he couldn't grant these people's requests, nor did he dare to make decisions for Liang Ming.

It's simply because these people did things that weren't exactly ethical.

Since Liangji Canned Food Factory gained a reputation, more and more consumers have been buying its canned fruits.

Because of this, many small vendors in Taoyuan Township saw that selling canned fruit was profitable, so they all set up small canned fruit workshops at home and produced some canned fruit.

These small fruit canning workshops all operate under the brand of Liangji Canned Food Factory, selling their own canned fruit.

Initially, these fruit canning workshops, leveraging the reputation of Liangji Canned Food Factory and the taste of their canned fruit, did manage to sell some products.

But consumers aren't stupid; they quickly discovered that the products from these small workshops were different from those from Liangji Canned Food Factory.

Canned fruit is not cheap to begin with.

Many ordinary people buy canned fruit as a gift; the taste of the fruit is secondary.

The key is that the canned fruit is of good quality and has a strong brand.

So soon, the canned fruit from these small fruit canneries gradually stopped selling, and even price reductions didn't work.

Over time, the owners of these small fruit canneries couldn't hold on any longer.

Small business owners who don't have any unsold inventory are in a better position; they can simply switch to another industry.

But small business owners with a lot of canned fruit in their hands can't do that.

If they can't keep these canned fruits, they'll lose a lot of money.

So, some of these people suggested that they go to Liang's Canned Food Factory and talk to Wang Ren.

See if Liangji Canned Food Factory can buy all their canned fruit, put a label on it, and then they can sell it.

Although their canned fruit comes from a small workshop, the quality is guaranteed.

After understanding the purpose of these people's visit, Wang Ren was both amused and exasperated.

These people also run a fruit canning business, and in a way, they are competitors of Liangji Canned Food Factory.

Now, asking them to buy canned fruit from their competitors? Even if Wang Ren were the owner of Liangji Canned Food Factory, he wouldn't agree.

"Everyone, I'm just an employee, please don't make things difficult for me."

Immediately, Wang Ren put his hands together and apologized to everyone.

He simply couldn't make that decision.

When those people saw that Wang Ren refused their request, they looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, one astute person reacted and said:

"Director Wang, we won't leave unless you agree."

The others realized what was happening and chimed in, "That's right, Director Wang, we won't leave unless you grant our request."

Wang Ren was somewhat taken aback by what these people were saying, and said, "You, how can you act like scoundrels?"

Those people shamelessly replied, "We're starving right now, we don't care about saving face."

"That's right, we've abandoned all shame."

Seeing the shamelessness of these people, Wang Ren felt a headache coming on.

However, he couldn't just resort to force.

These people are all from Taoyuan Township; they are all fellow villagers.

To put it bluntly, it means if you firmly refuse them and kick them out.

If they hold a grudge and sabotage Liang's canned food factory in secret, it will definitely cause them a lot of trouble.

There's no such thing as catching a thief from afar, only preventing thieves from spreading out for a thousand

"what happened?"

Just as Wang Ren was in a dilemma, a voice came from outside the office.

Upon hearing this voice, Wang Ren felt as if he were hearing the voice of a savior.

"Boss Liang, you've finally arrived!"

Wang Ren immediately went to Liang Ming's side, looking at him with excitement.

"What's going on? Why are there so many people here?"

Liang Ming also noticed everyone in the office and immediately spoke up, asking Wang Ren a question.

Hearing Liang Ming's words, Wang Ren didn't dare to waste any more words and immediately said to Liang Ming:

"Boss Liang, here's what happened. These people are all owners of small fruit canning workshops in our village..."

Wang Ren told Liang Ming the whole story of these people in one breath.

By the end, Liang Ming had figured out where these people came from.

We know they came here because they can't sell their canned fruit and hope that Liangji Canned Fruit Factory can take over their canned fruit.

"So you wanted Liangji Canned Food Factory to buy up all the canned fruit in your hands?"

Liang Ming said with a smile:

"This is such a small matter, there's no need for everyone to gather together and make a fuss."

Hearing Liang Ming's words, everyone present was delighted.

Judging from Liang Ming's attitude, is he willing to accept their canned fruit?

"Mr. Liang, we have no other choice but to trouble you."

"Yes, Mr. Liang, we just want to make some money!"

"I never imagined that making money from canned fruit would be so difficult. We've been working really hard to sell canned fruit lately, but we still can't sell any."

A look of helplessness appeared on the faces of these people.

If they really can't sell them, who would be willing to swallow their pride and come to Liangji Canned Food Factory to beg others to buy their canned fruit?

Liang Ming waved his hand, interrupting them, and said:

“I know that each of you has your own reasons.”

"If you want me to buy your canned fruit, you have to give me a reason that will convince me, right?"

Upon hearing Liang Ming's words, the small vendors looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Seeing that these people remained silent, Wang Ren shook his head helplessly and said;

"If you want our boss to agree to buy your canned fruit, you'll have to offer a price that will impress him."

"If the price doesn't satisfy our boss, he definitely won't make the acquisition!"

After Wang Ren reminded them, these people finally realized what was happening.

Immediately, someone spoke up: "Boss Liang, I'm willing to sell you the canned fruit from my workshop for 5 cents a can."

"Yes, yes, we are also willing to sell it for 5 cents a can."

Others also spoke up.

Hearing these words, Liang Ming smiled slightly and said:

"It seems you're still not in a hurry!"
