At this Dongfeng Science and Technology Exhibition, Benteng Technology Vegetable Base had completely crushed Daming Vegetable Base.
Anyone looking to purchase vegetable or fruit seedlings at the exhibition would find a stark price difference between the two stalls.
An Daming's vegetable seedlings, having reached a significant size, were priced even higher, at two yuan per plant!
"How could anyone buy these vegetable seedlings, which have such high market prices and are extremely difficult to cultivate a second time?"
And surprisingly, the very people arguing now were over a new order.
Someone had actually bought seedlings from Daming Vegetable Base!
Upon hearing this news, all the surrounding stall owners gathered, looking with immense curiosity at the spot, eager to see who this "Yuan Da Tou" was.
This "fool" turned out to be a vegetable supplier from afar. He had bought a piece of land nearby, intending to cultivate vegetables and then transport them for sale elsewhere.
Thus, he had set his sights on An Daming's vegetable seedlings, intending to buy them all without a second thought.
The two were already at the stage of signing a contract. An Daming had a total of 170,000 seedlings, and this person wanted them all.
"What is going on here?"
Seeing someone approach An Daming's Vegetable Base, the boss of Benteng Technology Vegetable Base couldn't sit still.
He directly went over to Daming Vegetable Base and casually uttered a few words, which so frightened the boss that he dared not sign the contract.
"These vegetable seedlings are already this large; they won't survive if planted in the soil!"
"If you plan to grow vegetables, the survival rate of these seedlings will be quite low. You can't keep them in pots forever, even if they look good now!"
"Most importantly, these are hundreds of thousands of seedlings! Where would you get so many pots?"
"Also, look, my seedlings are only eight mao each. If you buy in bulk, I'll give them to you for seven mao. His are two yuan each. Is that really a good deal?"
These few sentences from him made the boss not only afraid to sign the contract but also run over to Benteng Technology Vegetable Base.
Indeed, the boss of Benteng Technology Vegetable Base had some skills. His vegetable seedlings were cultivated exceptionally well.
The fruits of technology were truly different. They not only looked incredibly good but were also uniformly neat and orderly, with a high survival rate.
Therefore, this enthusiastic boss took a liking to Benteng Technology's vegetable seedlings.
An Daming was displeased. He only had 170,000 seedlings in total, and selling this batch would relieve him of all his worries.
"I say, Benteng Technology, isn't this a bit unethical?"
An Daming argued logically, getting into a heated argument with the person in front of him.
In fact, the surrounding stall owners knew what was happening and remained silent, just watching.
Logically speaking, the stall owner of Benteng Technology was indeed acting improperly. Normally, one shouldn't steal business like this.
However, at this moment, the stall owner of Benteng Technology was clearly more capable than the stall owner of Daming Vegetable Base, so these people did not speak up for Daming.
The stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable directly retorted, "We are selling vegetable seedlings. Of course, the better one will get the business. If they feel my vegetable seedlings are better than yours, they will buy mine. Is there a problem with that?"
These words from him left An Daming, who had so much to say, speechless.
Thinking about this, the few people around couldn't help but nod helplessly.
In fact, this was indeed the case. If there was a true comparison of vegetable seedlings, Benteng Technology's seedlings would undoubtedly have the advantage.
"You... how can you be like this?"
An Daming was inherently an honest person and didn't know what to do at this moment.
Actually, the boss of Benteng Technology Vegetable Base wasn't necessarily trying to steal his order. It was mainly because this vegetable boss was too generous, wanting an order of 170,000 seedlings all at once. Who wouldn't want to snatch that?
"What should I do next?"
After pondering for a moment, Li Qingfeng stepped forward. If they continued like this, An Daming would be bullied to death.
"Old Mr. Bai, please don't say a word when we get there. Absolutely don't say you know me!"
He instructed Bai Xiuming, who was standing beside him, and then Li Qingfeng walked forward.
Bai Xiuming was still a bit dazed and hadn't fully understood his intention, but seeing him walk off, he didn't ask further questions.
"Excuse me, is this a vegetable seedling base?"
The first sentence Li Qingfeng uttered left him a bit stunned, as he didn't quite grasp what he meant.
"Ah! Yes, yes, this is indeed a vegetable seedling base. I am the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable Seedlings. What can I do for you?"
Indeed, this fellow reacted quickly. Upon hearing Li Qingfeng, he immediately replied.
"It's like this, I need to purchase a batch of vegetable and fruit seedlings, around 140,000 plants!"
"H-how many?"
At this moment, the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable was still somewhat bewildered. Hearing his words, he repeated himself.
"Did I not explain clearly? I need to purchase 140,000 vegetable and fruit seedlings!"
Upon hearing the words of the person in front of him, Li Qingfeng's tone became quite forceful, sounding displeased.
Indeed, Li Qingfeng's attitude made the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable believe him even more. He even thought his luck had suddenly turned.
He had already snatched one large order from An Daming, and now he had encountered another order of over a hundred thousand. Could this person be his old rival?
"If I had known, I would have tried to snatch his business earlier. Then I would have become instantly famous!"
The stall owner of Benteng Technology was still lost in a daydream, unaware that he would soon be made to question his entire existence by Li Qingfeng.
"Sir, what do you need? I can easily supply orders for over a hundred thousand vegetable and fruit seedlings! No matter the type, I can provide them!"
The stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable did have some capability. He had most types of vegetable and fruit seedlings, and he had cultivated them.
"Can I see some samples?"
Looking at the situation before him, Li Qingfeng said somewhat pretentiously, while his gaze discreetly shifted to An Daming nearby.
This fellow didn't look very old, probably only in his forties or fifties.
He seemed to be a close friend of Old Mr. Bai, though it was unclear how they had connected. Perhaps it was due to his sincerity.
At this moment, Old Mr. Bai also seemed to have a realization. He quietly approached An Daming from behind and pointed at Li Qingfeng.
He then whispered something into his ear.
An Daming's eyes suddenly lit up. He also looked at the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable Base opposite him, his gaze filled with the thrill of revenge.
Meanwhile, the stall owner of Benteng Technology had forgotten about him, as he had already begun searching for his vegetable and fruit samples.
He took out a few samples and directly approached Li Qingfeng, saying, "Sir, it's like this. I've brought over a dozen types of vegetables and fruits, all here for you to see. Take your time to look, and if none of them suit your needs, I can cultivate them for you!"
Upon hearing his words, Li Qingfeng nodded thoughtfully.
Putting aside everything else, this service attitude was quite commendable.
"Your service attitude is excellent! I've visited so many stalls, and you are one of the best in terms of service!"
Li Qingfeng praised the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable Base.
Hearing his words, the surrounding people couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Unlike An Daming, the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable Base was good at socializing, and he had interacted with several of the neighboring stall owners.
That's why they didn't intervene or speak up when this incident occurred, as the stall owner of Benteng Technology clearly had a better relationship with them.
An Daming of Daming Vegetable Base was different. He was like a block of wood, not good at socializing, so the relationship with these people wasn't very close.
"Oh my, sir, you flatter me! I'm overwhelmed!"
"No need to say that. My service attitude isn't even top-tier in our Dongfeng Science and Technology Exhibition. The stall owners around me have even better service attitudes!"
The stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable said directly, and upon hearing him, both the surrounding stall owners and Li Qingfeng nodded.
"Apart from his poor character, in terms of conduct and dealing with people, he is truly exceptional!"
Li Qingfeng thought to himself as he looked at the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable.
One must admit, when it came to social graces and interpersonal skills, this fellow was truly remarkable. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
"Putting aside everything else, just based on the way you speak, I feel that your cultivated vegetable seedlings are likely not bad either!"
Li Qingfeng continued to praise the stall owner of Benteng Technology Vegetable Base.
Seeing him like this, An Daming couldn't help but feel confused. Wasn't this person his ally? Why was he constantly praising the opponent?
However, Old Mr. Bai, standing nearby, understood perfectly. Li Qingfeng intended to inflate this fellow to the heavens before bringing him crashing down.
"How ruthless!"
After contemplating for a moment, the old gentleman made a sound decision: from now on, he would absolutely never be an opponent of Li Qingfeng.
