Chapter 142 Disagreement
"Gudong, Gudong."
On the table in the private room of the racecourse canteen, milky white tofu and fish soup is steaming.
Wan Bin diligently served the soup to the two of them: "Here, let it be hot, and add the coriander yourself if you want!"
"Thanks."
Zhang Da took the fish soup with both hands and poured a lot of coriander into the bowl.
Take a sip of fish soup.
There is a warm current flowing faintly inside the body.
Zhang Da said sincerely: "Mr. Wan, the fish soup is very fresh."
"Haha, let's just say our fish is very fresh, right?" Wan Bin smiled and said, "Our canteen is also open to the public. If someone comes to ride a horse, they can also eat in the canteen."
Zhang Da nodded and asked:
"Mr. Wan, I would like to take the liberty to ask, is it particularly difficult to run a racecourse? I see that the hardware conditions and environment here are very good, but you can't maintain it?"
Wan Bin sighed: "Well, to be honest, my horse farm is losing money every month."
"I summed it up myself, maybe the business philosophy is wrong and the racecourse doesn't have its own characteristics."
"You should be able to tell that my racecourse is a popular one."
"I originally thought that on the one hand, I would attract new customers through online group buying discounts, and then sell VIP cards to cultivate repeat customers."
"On the other hand, prepare more horses to satisfy more customers."
"But the fact is that most novices come to ride horses just for a novelty, and it is difficult to develop into repeat customers."
"As for experienced horse riding enthusiasts, most of them have their own horse farms that they often go to, or they have requirements on the breed of horses, so they don't like my place very much."
"Therefore, in the first two years of opening, I didn't accumulate any core customers."
"Later, I started to receive some team building groups from work units or hotel tour groups, so I built this fish pond again. Unfortunately, the effect was not good."
"What's worse is that because we keep engaging in these activities and often make a mess, we offend old customers and the business becomes worse and worse."
Shen Haoran thought for a while and said: "I'll tell you the truth, Mr. Wan, your place seems more suitable for a private vacation."
"Yes, Mr. Shen, you are right, my friends also said the same." Wan Bin nodded in agreement,
"My racecourse is not big, but it becomes crowded when there are many people. The fish pond is also a bit small, not as good as a professional fishing ground."
With that said, he smiled at Zhang Da again and said:
"Mr. Zhang, I have already told you about the racecourse's problems. If you really take over this racecourse, you can use me as a negative example."
"Mr. Wan is serious!" Zhang Da said quickly, "You are a frank person. However, you have told all the shortcomings of the racecourse. Aren't you afraid that I will lower the price again?"
He never expected that Wan Bin would introduce the operating conditions of the racecourse so thoroughly.
"You're welcome." Wan Bin smiled, "I also saw that you are worth a lot and you do have the ability to buy a racecourse, so I said a few more words."
When he left the office before, he noticed the Phantom in the parking lot.
"Besides," Wan Bin showed a bigger smile, "I believe you can see that my offer is very sincere."
"Now there are four horses missing. I am willing to transfer the racecourse and the remaining 13 horses to you at a price of 13.2 million."
Shen Haoran put his hand under the table and patted Zhang Da gently.
This is the secret code for the appointment between the two, which means "the price is right."
"I appreciate your candor!" Zhang Da thought for a while and said,
"Let me tell you the truth, I don't plan to open a public racecourse, but a private one."
"I quite like your horse farm, but I don't need so many horses."
'Private horse farm...'
Hearing these four words, Wan Bin felt a little surprised and a little envious at the same time.
If the economy did not allow it, he would also like to open a private horse farm.
Let's imagine.
Weekend morning.
After waking up in the dormitory at the racecourse.
First go to the pond and catch a "lunch" for yourself.
In the afternoon, you can pick up a horse and gallop around every corner of the racecourse.
In the evening, get on a small boat and swing the oars in the fish pond.
How happy this should be.
Wan Bin's face showed a look of yearning involuntarily.
He quickly shook his head and said firmly:
"I'm sorry, I can make concessions on the price. But I can't make concessions on the condition of buying all the horses in one package."
Zhang Da said: "Can I ask the reason?"
"If I sell the horse farm, I won't have anywhere to raise horses, but I can't find a horse farm to take over for a while."
Wan Bin said, "The circus and the slaughterhouse are willing to have my horses, but I feel uneasy about doing this."
"The horses in my racecourse may not be of expensive breeds, but I carefully select each one, and I have feelings for them all."
"Sell the horses to a racecourse and their lives will be easier."
Zhang Da was quiet for a while, nodded and said, "I can understand."
Unexpectedly, the biggest disagreement in this negotiation was not about money.
Shen Haoran asked: "Do you still have friends who can sell horses to the racecourse?"
"It's very difficult." Wan Bin said with a wry smile, "The previous four horses were sold with great difficulty because of lower prices and emotional play."
Zhang Da said: "Mr. Wan, let me think about it again."
Wan Bin took out his mobile phone: "No problem, let's exchange contact information. If you have any ideas, please contact me anytime."
...
In the afternoon, Zhang Da and he returned to Shen Haoran's racecourse.
"This racecourse is good and suitable for a private vacation." Shen Haoran took a sip of tea and said, "The price of 13.2 million is considered fair in the industry."
"However, those 13 horses are a problem." Zhang Da thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, if I pay back the price, it will be regarded as the maintenance fee for those horses."
He agreed with Wan Bin's attitude towards horses.
In this case, he is not short of money anyway, so he might as well keep these horses and slowly sell them to other horse farms.
Shen Haoran waved his hand: "Well, don't worry, I'll call Lao Li and see if he wants a horse."
The "Old Li" he calls Highland is naturally Li Chong, the horse farm owner in Shencheng.
Half a minute later, Li Chong in Shanghai received a call from Shen Haoran.
As soon as he answered the phone, he heard Shen Haoran's voice:
"Hey, Lao Li, do you want a horse?"
Li Chong joked: "Old Shen, how many horses do you have? Are they enough for me, Old Li, to form a cavalry company?"
"If it's not enough, I'll let you form a cavalry squad at most." Shen Haoran joked and asked in surprise, "So, do you really want to buy a horse?"
"I probably want to buy six or seven horses. Business at the racecourse has been good recently, and I'm afraid that my horses will be tired, so I need to add a few more horses."
Li Chong said,
"If you have a way, I will definitely buy it from you! But, ugly words ahead, I don't want the horse to be bad!"
"Okay, it's not a famous horse, but it's fed well." Shen Haoran said, "Let's do this. Don't rush to buy a horse. I'll contact you in a few days."
Chapter completed!
