Chapter 18: Another Trap
"Okay, then I'll wait for good news from Boss Tao."
"Definitely."
After hanging up Su Yu's phone, Tao Xin thought for a moment, flipped through his address book, and dialed one of the numbers.
Beep beep!
"The number you dialed is in use."
Hearing the echo from the phone, Tao Xin sneered, "Don't answer? Are you feeling guilty?"
Tao Xin did not give up and called the number again. After three times in a row, the call was finally connected.
"Sorry, I was just on the phone." The person on the other end of the phone said, "Boss Tao called so late, is there something?"
"Yes," Tao Xin said, "It's about the Canglan Rat."
"Boss Tao, although we have a good relationship, business is business. Monsters cannot be returned once they are sold. If you can't sell the Canglan Rat, that's your problem. I don't accept returns here." The person on the other end of the phone immediately replied.
Who has a good relationship with you?
Sooner or later, I will cheat you once!
Tao Xin was quite dissatisfied with the person on the other end of the phone. The other party was the one who cheated him and made him hoard the Canglan Rat before.
However, now is obviously not the time to think about this. Tao Xin said, "Boss Yu is right. It's my problem that Canglan Rat can't be sold. I'm a newcomer in this industry. I don't have enough ability and experience. This can't be blamed on you, Boss Yu."
"It's good that you think so." Boss Yu on the other side said, "Then what did you call me to talk about?"
Boss Yu was a little surprised. Since he didn't come to return the goods to him, what else could it be?
As for Tao Xin's failure to sell Canglan Rat, that was expected. He knew the market of Canglan Rat very well. This thing is completely useless. No one will buy it. Most people will not catch Canglan Rat on purpose. At most, they will catch it and bring it out.
"I want to buy some more Canglan Rat from Boss Yu." Tao Xin said.
"Buy more?" Boss Yu said in surprise.
"Yes." Tao Xin said, "That's what I think. People in Xingyue City may not be used to eating Canglan Rat meat, but people in other cities may not dislike it, especially those cities that are poorer than us. People there can't afford to eat high-quality monster meat, so they may like to eat Canglan Rat meat."
"Are you planning to sell Canglan Rat to other cities?" Boss Yu asked.
"I have this plan." Tao Xin said, "Of course, if I meet monster dealers from other cities who come to buy it, I can also sell it to them."
Boss Yu on the opposite side was obviously stunned, as if he was shocked by Tao Xin's idea. After a while, he said, "Boss Tao, I have to say that you are really a genius in business. Why didn't I think of it before? You are better than me. Tell me, how much do you want, I will definitely help you get it."
Boss Yu flattered Tao Xin, but he almost laughed crazy in his heart.
This Tao Xin is really naive!
How could he think that people in other cities would like Canglan Rat meat? !
The meat of the Canglan Rat is sour and astringent, and it is impossible for anyone to like it. It contains almost no blood and qi, so who would buy it?
There are cities in China that are better than their Xingyue City, and there are many of them, but the people in those places are just poor, not stupid. Who would buy this kind of monster that is not delicious and has almost no blood and qi?
Impossible!
Boss Yu has more experience in this industry than Tao Xin, and he knows these things very well.
However, Boss Yu obviously will not remind Tao Xin, as he can just take this opportunity to ship the goods. As for Tao Xin's life and death, he can't control it.
Newcomers always have to suffer a little to gain experience, and everyone has come this way.
"Thank you, Boss Yu." Tao Xin said: "I want 38 more, and the price is still the same as before, 300 each, what do you think?"
"38?"
Boss Yu was a little surprised at the number reported by Tao Xin. Why is it not 30, not 40, but 38?
"Yes, 38." Tao Xin said.
"Is it a little less?" Boss Yu said, "Since you are going to ship to other cities to sell, you must buy more. Isn't this too little?"
"A lot. None of the previous ones have been sold." Tao Xin said, "Besides, this is my first time shipping to other cities to sell. It's a trial. I don't need too many. If it sells well, I will ask Boss Yu to buy more."
Sell well?
How is it possible!
Although Tao Xin was a little disappointed that he only bought so little, he could sell as much as he could, and Boss Yu had no reason to refuse.
"Boss Tao is cautious, and this is what he should do." Boss Yu said, "Okay, 38 is 38, come to pick up the goods the day after tomorrow."
"Okay."
After hanging up Boss Yu's phone, Tao Xin kept asking about Boss Yu's family.
The next day, Su Yu went to school as usual.
"I heard that many Wuhan universities are expanding enrollment this year?"
"So, this year's standard line will be lower than last year's?"
"That's not necessarily true. In recent years, people's living conditions have been getting better and better, and they have paid more and more attention to exercise. The blood and qi of the same age group are much higher than before."
"That's right. Last year's standard line for blood and qi in the martial arts exam was 115, and it was only 113 the year before. The standard line for the martial arts exam is getting higher every year."
"In our No. 4 Middle School, it is estimated that no more than three people can pass the standard line!"
"It's so sad. In key high schools, more than three people in an ordinary class are admitted to Wuhan University. In our school, there may be no more than three. Alas."
......
In the classroom, many people were talking about the martial arts exam. The martial arts exam was something that everyone was concerned about. Even students who had decided to take the liberal arts exam were very concerned about the news.
"Zhang Yang, how are you?" Hou Shuai asked Zhang Yang.
"It's difficult." Zhang Yang sighed and said, "I was hoping that the standard line would be lowered this year, so that I still had hope. Now it seems that there is not much hope."
"Not necessarily." Hou Shuai said, "It is said that many Wuhan Universities will expand enrollment. I think the standard line will be lowered this year."
Zhang Yang shook his head and was not optimistic about this.
There are too many people applying for Wuhan University every year. Even if the enrollment is expanded, it is difficult to lower the standard line. He feels that his hope is not great, but he is unwilling to give up. He can only do his best.
"Su Yu, have you decided which university to apply for?" Hou Shuai looked at Su Yu and asked, "I think your grades are good enough to get into Dexing Agricultural University."
The "Dexing Agricultural University" Hou Shuai mentioned is a university in Dexing, the capital of their province. This university ranks around fifth in Dexing City and is a liberal arts university. For students from No. 4 Middle School, getting into Dexing Agricultural University is a very good result. Su Yu's liberal arts grades are pretty good, so if he tries hard, he has a good chance of getting into Dexing Agricultural University.
