I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3409: Chapter 3401: Fruit Glut

"Now we can only leave it to fate," He Li said:

"Anyway, our car exhibition was quite successful, so it doesn’t matter much whether we sell a lot or a little this time."

Lin Yi smirked to himself, silently grumbling.

You don’t care, but I do!

"Let’s leave it at that for now."

Lin Yi didn’t say much else, and took Ning Che aside.

"You don’t want to help them solve the sales problem, do you?"

"You figured it out?"

"I know you too well," Ning Che said:

"The problem is this issue has nothing to do with you. Why involve yourself? You don’t need that little commission money."

"See, getting discouraged," Lin Yi said:

"How do you become an outstanding employee? By helping your boss solve problems they can’t fix."

"In that regard, you’re definitely loyal to Boss Liu," Ning Che said:

"How are you going to solve it?"

"First contact the fruit processing factories or secondary fruit distributors and see if they can buy up their stock."

"But if you do this, people might not thank you," Ning Che shrugged. "Even if they manage to sell it, they might not buy your cars."

"It doesn’t matter — do good deeds and ask no questions of the future."

Ning Che looked at Lin Yi, "That’s really nice."

Lin Yi took his phone, and in the small group of four, sent out the relevant info, asking the other three to help contact people in this field.

The first to respond was Gao Zongyuan, who eagerly took on the task.

"What should we do next?"

"Get in touch with the locals and understand the situation. Check the quantity because if it’s too much, we might not be able to take it all."

"You seem to need official people for this."

Lin Yi nodded, "For such matters, we need to be cautious when dealing with officials."

"Master Lin."

As Lin Yi was about to make a call, he unexpectedly heard someone speaking from nearby.

Looking up, he realized it was Ma Weicai.

"Why are you here?"

"Since you’re here, I’d like to invite you to dinner — all wild delicacies from the mountain that you can’t find outside," Ma Weicai said, nodding and bowing:

"Master Lin, may I have the opportunity to extend my hospitality, and also have a chance to apologize?"

Suddenly, Ma Weicai felt a murderous aura directed at him.

To his surprise, it was coming from the woman beside Lin Yi.

Despite years of fighting, it was the first time he felt so creeped out by a woman.

"Forget the dinner."

Lin Yi said coolly:

"However, you’ve come at the right time. I have something to ask you."

"Sure, Master Lin, please go ahead."

Ma Weicai nodded excitedly.

For someone like Lin Yi to have something to ask him was a definite honor.

"Is the local fruit being left unsold?"

"Master Lin, you know about this?"

"I heard it by chance."

"Foreign fruits have come in and driven down the prices, causing our local fruits to be left unsold," Ma Weicai explained:

"And you haven’t taken any?"

"I have agreements where I must take some local fruit, but I’ve also taken quite a bit of foreign fruit, so most local fruits remain unsold."

Lin Yi nodded, understanding the situation.

"Who is responsible for this locally?"

"We have a committee that specifically handles this," Ma Weicai said, looking at Lin Yi:

"Master Lin, are you planning to help resolve this issue?"

"I have the idea, but first I need to understand the situation."

"Master Lin, forgive me for saying too much, but this doesn’t concern you much, and no one has asked for your help. It’s easy to work hard without appreciation."

Ma Weicai’s thoughts were similar to Ning Che’s.

No one wanted Lin Yi to involve himself in such thankless tasks.

"It’s fine, don’t worry about anything else," Lin Yi said:

"Where is this committee located? I’d like to take a look."

"Master Lin, I’ll take you there. My car is right nearby."

"No need. You drive ahead, and I’ll follow."

"Alright, Master Lin, this way please."

The two got into the car and followed Ma Weicai’s car towards the county town.

The county is not large, after about ten minutes, they arrived at the entrance of the committee.

Apparently knowing Ma Weicai was coming, someone was already waiting outside when they parked.

"President Ma, you’re here. It’ll be troublesome when it comes to sales. We need your help to brainstorm a solution."

The speaker was a middle-aged man, dressed simply, and enthusiastically shook Ma Weicai’s hand.

The man’s name was Zhang Jiachun, the director of the committee, specifically responsible for sales-related affairs.

In his view, Ma Weicai was the only one who could help him find a sales path.

Beside him was a young woman, not much older than twenty, with youthful vigor and a strong sense of drive on her face.

"Director Zhang, I’m not the main character today."

Ma Weicai shifted half a step aside.

"Let me introduce you to someone, this is Mr. Lin Yi, who can help you find some sales channels."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jiachun’s eyes lit up, gratefully grabbing Lin Yi’s hand.

"Mr. Lin, thank you for coming to help, please come inside."

"No need to be so polite, just a small effort."

Lin Yi and Ning Che were ushered inside, and Zhang Jiachun couldn’t stop smiling.

But the young woman beside them kept sizing up Lin Yi and Ning Che as if on guard.

The committee’s décor was down-to-earth, with many promotional posters about local introductions hanging on the walls.

The group ascended to the second floor, arriving at Zhang Jiachun’s office.

"Mr. Lin, let me introduce you."

Zhang Jiachun brought the young woman forward.

"Her name is Sun Jia, she’s a new recruit, a graduate from a prestigious university."

Lin Yi nodded, not focusing his attention on Sun Jia.

"Director Zhang, let’s keep it brief," Lin Yi said:

"How much unsold fruit is there?"

"There are still about 200,000 tons of oranges. If they’re not collected soon, they’ll start rotting in the fields," Zhang Jiachun said with a worried look:

"Fortunately, you came just in time. A few days later, we might really have had a problem."

Sun Jia furrowed her brow, thinking that Zhang Jiachun’s remark was inappropriate.

If the other side knows they’re anxious to sell the oranges, they’ll pressure the price very low.

This way, the fruit wouldn’t sell at a good price.

But the words were already spoken, too late to correct or emphasize.

"Do you have a price expectation? How much do you want to sell for?"

"Regarding prices, I need to discuss with the farmers to give a suitable price," Zhang Jiachun said:

"But according to current market trends, around three and a half would be about right."
