After all, he's a blind man. I can't give him too much money for fear that he might be targeted.
Let's leave it like this before the Blood Moon. When the Blood Moon is approaching, I'll tie him up and take him home if I have to.
While thinking like this,
the feed factory called: "We can do it. According to your requirements, the meat content can be about 8%, and each ton will cost 320 yuan more."
So little?
Chen Qing was stunned. Originally, a ton was sold for 3,000 yuan, and with the addition of meat, it only increased by 10%.
But on second thought, it wasn't strange. Firstly, the meat content was low, and secondly, the meat used wasn't of good quality either.
"Let's set it at 3,300 yuan per ton. Prepare 1,000 tons first, and send me your bank account number."
The person on the other end was slightly taken aback. It was the first time they had encountered someone doing business like this.
But they still sent the account number immediately.
Three million three hundred thousand yuan was transferred at once.
Soon, the phone rang again. This time, the tone became much more polite:
"Sir, may I ask how I should address you..."
At this point, he himself felt it was a bit absurd.
He didn't even know the surname, yet 3.3 million yuan was transferred directly. Aren't you afraid that we're scammers?
"My surname is Chen."
"Time is a bit tight. Please arrange the production quickly. Just let me know when it's done."
"Alright! I'll send you a number that's available 24 hours a day. You can tell me if you have any requests."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Qing called Manager Yang again.
"Manager Yang, do you have any empty warehouses that I can use? For at most a week."
"Yes, there are three empty warehouses in the High-tech Zone in the north of the city. You can go there at any time, and I'll make the arrangements right away."
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome."
Without delay, he took a taxi directly to the High-tech Zone according to the address.
Before the Ghost Tide, this place was almost in operation 24 hours a day.
Although the impact of the Ghost Tide in the north was small, judging from the vacancy rate of the warehouses now, it was clear that it had already affected all aspects.
All three warehouses were very large, covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters. What pleased Chen Qing the most was the conveyor belt.
It directly connected the back door of the warehouse to the front door.
The most ingenious thing was that the conveyor belt also passed through two security inspection machines. Meanwhile, the entire warehouse was divided into three areas with the two security inspection machines as the boundary.
The three areas couldn't see each other.
In short, later they just needed to pack the dishes and put them on the conveyor belt.
Chen Qing found a phone number:
"I'm the holder of VIP Card No. 527. Are there any discounts for booking banquets in your hotel?"
"Yes, sir! As long as it's within the city, we can pack and deliver for each fully booked table, and we'll compensate for delays. If you book more than 50 tables, we also have mobile dining cars that can cook on site."
Chen Qing knew this and asked, "How much is each table?"
"There are five grades depending on the dishes, ranging from 688 yuan to 4,888 yuan. The standard for a 688-yuan table is..."
"Tell me about the 4,888-yuan one."
"Uh, for the 4,888-yuan table, there are a total of 18 dishes: eight exquisite cold dishes, garlic-flavored Australian lobsters, boiled prawns, wine-flavored fresh fish, Huadiao-flavored 珍宝蟹 (treasure crabs, maybe some kind of special crab), secret sauce beef head, scallions with Dalian abalones, lotus-flavored stewed soft-shelled turtles..."
Definitely a feast of delicacies.
But it sounded too likely to cause gout.
He also asked about the dishes of other grades. The 688-yuan ones were all common home-cooked dishes like sweet and sour pork ribs, twice-cooked pork, and meatball soup.
On the contrary, these were the most to his taste.
Was he really doomed to be poor...
"Book 100 tables at 4,888 yuan. 500 tables at 1,288 yuan. And 1,000 tables at 688 yuan."
"Uh... Sir, are you sure?"
The person on the other end was slightly stunned.
100 tables were already a very large banquet.
A banquet of 1,600 tables had never been heard of before.
Moreover... Banquets were most particular about having the same grade for all tables.
If there wasn't enough money, it would be better to halve the dishes on each table or lower the grade by two levels than to have some tables with good dishes and some with inferior ones.
So at this moment, they just thought Chen Qing was making a prank call or a scam call.
Of course, in the service industry, they could only force a smile.
"Then come to the warehouse area in the High-tech Zone, Warehouse No. 2 - 11 in Area C."
"I'm very sorry, sir. Since the quantity you've booked is rather exaggerated, we need to collect a deposit before we can come."
"Oh, how much?"
"The total price is 1.82 million yuan, and we need to collect a 20% deposit, which is 364,000 yuan."
"What's your bank account number?"
The operator reported the account number, sneering in his heart.
This kind of scamming trick was really too old-fashioned!
Maybe he would soon say that the bank card was frozen or something, and then there would be a whole bunch of old-fashioned scams, like clicking on the link in the text message...
"Damn it!"
While he was thinking, suddenly a voice shouted:
"A large order for 1,600 tables in the warehouse area?!"
"Is this going to treat the whole city to a banquet?!"
The operator was stunned.
"What... what?"
Wasn't this clearly a scammer? How could it be for real?!
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Everyone, get moving!"
"Chef Team 1, take the ingredients for 100 tables of home-cooked dishes and go there first. Everyone else, hurry up and purchase materials!"
"Call all the suppliers and make sure to secure this order!"
The operator was slightly stunned and hesitated, "Is it... a scammer?"
"The deposit has been transferred! What the hell are you talking about!"
The whole hotel became busy.
Everyone was surprised. 1,600 tables? Was this going to treat the whole city to a banquet?
The hotel was quick. The mobile dining cars soon arrived at the warehouse area, but several chefs were a bit dumbfounded.
Where was the person?
There was only one person?
Where were the people having the banquet?
"Sir... uh, Mr. Chen, where are the people having the banquet?"
"This is an urgent task. Don't worry about it. Just pack each portion and put it on the conveyor belt. Someone will transport them away from the back of the warehouse."
"You just stay in the front loading and unloading area. Strictly prohibited from going to the back to have a look."
"Don't overthink, don't ask too many questions, and don't be curious."
The chefs' hearts skipped a beat, and they immediately had many speculations.
Their gazes towards Chen Qing had changed a lot.
"Could it be... the Ghost-Controlling Army?"
"This young man is so young. He's probably already a prominent figure in the Ghost-Controlling Army!"
They were curious in their hearts, but they forced themselves not to inquire. They just called their companions and started to make arrangements.
This was a semi-trailer van.
After starting the switch, the side doors opened, and with a rumbling sound, it gradually expanded into a space about 7 meters by 7 meters.
The chefs were quite efficient and soon got busy.
The sound of preparing dishes quickly became a continuous noise.
The conveyor belts in the warehouse were covered with plastic sheets. After uncovering them, they were quite new.
Moreover, the meals were all packed, so there was no need to worry even if there was dust.
Whoosh—Boom!
The fire was lit.
The firepower was strong, and the speed of cooking dishes was also fast. Soon, the first dish made its way through most of the warehouse and arrived in front of Chen Qing.
Opening it, it was stir-fried sliced pork, steaming hot and fragrant.
Chen Qing was very satisfied and put it into the Demon-Suppressing Tower.
With a time flow rate difference of 15,000 times, it meant that even if it was taken out ten or twenty years later, the dish would still be hot.
Chen Man and he could live the rest of their lives comfortably.
Then came the second dish, the third dish...
The one hundredth dish, the two hundredth dish...
Two hours later, the speed of serving dishes suddenly doubled.
It should be that the second batch of staff had arrived.
After being so busy, it was soon evening.
Chen Qing called Chen Man, telling him to eat and go to bed by himself. Chen Qing quickly ate two boxes of food.
Then he threw himself back into work again.
He was using his mental power to collect the dishes.
At this moment, Chen Qing was extremely tired, but... it seemed that his mental power had a faint tendency to become stronger.
Could this also be considered a kind of cultivation?
