Chapter 575: Chapter 243: Let More People Know_2

But this time Yan Fei got it wrong. Director Huang was clearly in a good mood today. Upon hearing his words, not only was he not put off, but he also said gleefully: "What do you know, you young one? Our factory got some spotlight this time. Have you heard of Hong Kong? It’s the renowned Oriental Pearl, you probably haven’t been there, have you? Last week, a group of big chiefs came to inspect here, heh heh, we sent them our factory’s special souvenir. Each of them received it and gave us a thumbs-up, saying it’s better than international top brands."

"Isn’t that because of my cowhide’s quality? Your factory’s probably going to expand a lot from now on. Why don’t you raise the price a bit for my cowhide?" Yan Fei saw Director Huang was pleased, so he immediately took the opportunity to mention his benefits.

How could he not know about Hong Kong? Just a few days ago, he was using this news to tease his Uncle Baoguo! But that was just watching a spectacle, it had nothing to do with him, it was a bit too far-off from him anyway.

"Raise the price?" Director Huang immediately looked unhappy. "This is just boasting at a loss! Our stuff has no reputation outside, others say ours is good, but as far as I’ve heard, no one is willing to place orders anyway! Also, I can’t make a decision on raising the price, this needs layers of approval, by the time you come again it still may not get approved..."

"Alright, alright, look at you, getting worried at the mention of raising the price." Yan Fei waved his hand. "Hurry up and give me the money, I still have things to do! It’s okay if it doesn’t increase anyway, rest assured, your place is on the way, I’ll still come to sell here..."

He added the latter half of that sentence when he saw Old Huang’s face didn’t look too good.

Usually, he heard Old Huang grumble a few times. Now some small factories’ products, they just need some advertising on a random TV channel, then they dare to call themselves branded products. The products are made poorly and cheaply, that they have more competitiveness than the old factory’s. The factory’s leaders wanted to emulate this, but being big and cumbersome became a drag. They couldn’t find a good solution no matter what, and it’s not something that an average worker with a director title, whose job is just to collect cowhide, can handle!

But this had nothing to do with Yan Fei. After all, he is already very satisfied with the price of this cowhide. What people often fear is comparison, his cowhide in the warehouse is the most expensive, so there’s nothing to argue about!

He took the money gleefully and went to sell the beef — the place where he sells the cowhide always maintains a business schedule, but the restaurant doesn’t, even if he came at 10 at night, it’s still early.

Now he didn’t need to slowly portion the beef out himself when the foreigner was present, it was already portioned by him when he arrived. The foreigner simply had to weigh it, calculate the price, and paying went smoothly. A transaction worth thousands was completed in less than half an hour, including the foreigner’s usual lengthy banter, this business was indeed seamless.

As usual, the foreigner kept nagging: "Xiao Fei, I feel very guilty, your beef is getting better and better, but I can’t offer better prices for them, this brings a lot of discomfort to my conscience..."

"You’re spouting nonsense. Usually, I only needed to feed the cows for three months before but now to supply you with beef, I have been raising them for an additional few months. So it’s natural for the quality of beef to keep improving!" Yan Fei was tired of his rhetoric: "And since when did you foreigners start caring about conscience? I’ve heard this story so many times I’m getting calluses on my ears, just hurry up and give me the money! Hurry up, hurry up..."

"No, no, no..." the foreigner kept contradicting him. "This time I’m not just talking, I have some good news to tell you. Last week after you delivered the beef, I entertained some guests from the Oriental Pearl. They are very interested in your beef. I think you would be willing to wait a little longer to discuss this with them!"

"Why can’t I get away from these people?" Yan Fei heard mention of businessmen from Hong Kong for the second time in a short while. "Even if they are interested, I don’t have any more beef to offer them. The cows I’m currently raising are all prepared for you. At most, I can try harder to supply one more small restaurant like yours, but I can’t manage any more. Furthermore, Hong Kong is so far away, I can’t deliver there! Let them go back to where they came from!"

It’s not that he can’t deliver, even if they were overseas, Yan Fei would dare say he could deliver. The problem is that he can’t explain how he delivered it! As the weather gets warmer, his beef delivered there would be as fresh as if it was just slaughtered, it was impossible to explain! — He doesn’t know yet that after the return of Hong Kong, he will still need to get a pass, even Shen City’s development city side has a checkpoint, and he still thinks that it’s like moving from Sancha River town to the Provincial City, free to come and go as he pleases!

"No, no, no..." the foreigner started again. "Xiao Fei, you should wait a bit, at least chat with them, get to know the market outside. I’ve said it before, you need to look further into the future, even further! Now you may not be able to rear that many cows, but one day you will. There’s a phrase in China: Good wine needs no bush. You have the ability to breed top-quality beef, all the chefs in the world, including those food lovers, they won’t let you remain unknown forever. Believe me, I’m definitely right."

"Are you sure?" Deep down, Yan Fei also wished to know more about the outside world, since such opportunities do not come often. It’s just like the bet he had with his uncle, even though it was "just for fun" and he said it casually, is there really such a desire deep down in his heart? Even he is not clear about it.
