Chapter 304: Seductive Watermelon

Liu Lirong also sighed and said, "Maybe I just have bad luck. I've caught the attention of these gangsters, and if I'm not careful, I'll fall into their trap. They're pushing me to the edge, and I really don't want to do this anymore. I'll find someone to take over and sell this shop!"
Li Fei shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Boss Zhao, why be so pessimistic? In the vast world, what can they really do? It's such a pity to let go of your thriving business." (Note: The "@" symbol is not translated as it is used to address someone.)
Liu Lirong shook her head and said, "If you're not a boss, you won't understand how much pressure I have. Even if there were no troublemakers, I wouldn't be able to handle it. I hope that when my supermarket is still profitable, I can sell it for a good price, find a stable job, and live a peaceful and relaxed life. I never want to be a boss again, it's too stressful!"
Li Fei looked at her intently and realized that she was indeed tired, so he sighed, shook his head, and decided not to persuade her anymore.
Liu Lirong glanced at him and said, "You just mentioned that you brought a truckload of watermelons here. Let's go and take a look!"
Li Fei nodded and immediately walked outside with him. Liu Lirong said as they walked, "To be honest with you, watermelons are now in large supply. Several watermelon merchants have partnered with our supermarket, and the shelves are full of watermelons. I'll make room for you later by removing our self-operated apple stall. After all, apples are not selling much now."
Li Fei took a deep breath and quickly said, "Thank you, Boss Liu!"
"There's no need to thank me. If you're Li Mengjiao's friend, then you're my friend too. Friends should take care of each other, it's only natural!" As she spoke, she glanced at Li Fei a few times and a smile appeared on her face.
"By the way, what is your relationship with Li Mengjiao?" Li Mengjiao is already in her thirties, while the young man in front of her looks like he's in his early twenties. She is very curious about how they became friends. Especially seeing Li Fei's tall and handsome appearance, her eyes are filled with gossip.
Li Fei chuckled and recounted the process of how they met.
Liu Lirong exclaimed, "I never would've imagined that you, young man, are actually a professional at saving damsels in distress!"
Li Fei blushed and modestly replied, patting the back of his head, "It's my honor!"
Liu Lirong coughed and said, "By the way, how much do you plan to sell your watermelon for per kilogram? Should I help you sell it on your behalf or should I buy it directly from you?"
Li Fei pondered and said, "Let's go with selling it on my behalf. My watermelon is called Taoyuan Watermelon, and I want to establish this brand, so I must control the price well."
Liu Lirong looked at him strangely, thinking what's so special about branding this watermelon?
However, she didn't say it out loud, and Li Fei continued, "Just help me sell it for 3 yuan per kilogram, and I will give you a cut of 1 yuan for each kilogram."
Liu Lirong looked at him strangely: "Will it sell if it's three yuan per kilogram? How about you sell it for two yuan and fifty cents per kilogram, and I'll deduct fifty cents from you for each kilogram?" Liu Lirong immediately cut off half of her own profit.
Li Fei shook his head anxiously and said firmly, "No, it must be sold for three yuan per kilogram!"
Liu Lirong asked in confusion, "Now watermelons are being massively marketed, and they are being sold for two yuan per kilogram. They are even being sold by dragging them in a car outside. You can even buy them for one yuan and fifty cents per kilogram, and they are all very good watermelons."
Li Fei chuckled and said, "I have always been selling it this way, of course, it sells well and is in high demand!"
Liu Lirong glanced at him, shook her head, and did not say anything. Although his supermarket also had a batch of watermelons sold for three yuan per kilogram, they were all exceptionally good varieties from outside the region, and their sales were not particularly high. It was all about having a reputation.
He sells these locally grown watermelons at such high prices, but who would care?
However, since he is so insistent, I can't say anything. I walked outside with him.
Li Fei hurriedly took her to his small truck and pointed to the filled cargo compartment of watermelons, smiling and saying, "That's it!"
Liu Lirong glanced over and was slightly surprised, quickly walking over.
This watermelon is round and smooth. It is exceptionally large with a deep and vibrant color, and its texture is clear and defined. The presentation is very appealing.
Standing beside this watermelon, one can immediately catch a whiff of a faint and refreshing fragrance.
She immediately bent down, put her nose on the watermelon, and took a deep breath. Yes, this refreshing fragrance is indeed emanating from this watermelon.
This watermelon immediately caught her attention, and she turned to Li Fei and said, "Can I open one and try it?"
Li Fei chuckled, "Of course you can!"
Liu Lirong turned around to run into the supermarket to get a knife, but was stopped by him. He grabbed a watermelon, raised his fist, and smashed it down. With a loud sound, the watermelon immediately split into pieces, and fresh red juice flowed out. Li Fei broke off a piece of watermelon and handed it to Liu Lirong, saying, "Have a taste and try it!" Translation: @@ Li Fei chuckled, "Of course you can!"
A tantalizing fragrance wafted over, causing Liu Lirong to involuntarily swallow her saliva. Without hesitation, she caught the watermelon and took a big bite, with a sweet juice flowing into her mouth. She happily devoured it, nodding repeatedly towards Li Fei and mumbling, "Delicious!"
I ate a whole watermelon in one go, and only stopped a little bit because my stomach couldn't handle it. If it wasn't for feeling full, I really wanted to eat another piece.
Li Fei, with a smile on his face, looked at her and said, "So, what do you think? Is my watermelon worth three yuan per kilogram?"
Liu Lirong nodded repeatedly: "It's amazing! I can guarantee that anyone who eats it for the first time will definitely become a regular customer. If you sell your watermelon here, I won't need to sell any other watermelons. This watermelon is not only sweet, but it also has a unique fragrance and freshness that I have never tasted before. It is that freshness that keeps people coming back for more. Even after I finished eating it, my mouth still had that taste, and I even felt that my entire body was filled with that refreshing and beautiful flavor. I feel like my whole body is being purified!"
Li Fei laughed and smiled, "Where did you get such an exaggerated idea?"
Liu Lirong nodded earnestly, "That's just the impression I get!"
Li Fei laughed and smiled, "That's great then, I'll let go of eating watermelon for now!"
Liu Lirong nodded and then ran inside. "Just wait a moment, I will immediately clear a spot for you and arrange for employees," she said. She quickly freed up the most prominent spot for selling fruits and left a large empty space.
Li Fei gratefully glanced at her, the position she had arranged for herself was not here.
She directly arranged the best spot in the fruit area for her watermelon.
