Early the next morning, as soon as Li Xin entered the office, Director Luan next door heard the sound of the door opening, and then walked in and asked, "Li Xin, has the information sent by the sugar factory been statistically summarized?"

Li Xin put down the things in his hand, picked up the printed report on the table and handed it over, saying, "The statistics are ready, I just printed it out yesterday afternoon." After speaking, he secretly glanced at the clock on the wall, it was just half past eight, he was secretly glad that he was not late, otherwise he would have been caught again!

This Director Luan is about forty years old, short and fat, with a beer belly, two feet with obvious external figures, and his heels are always drooping on the ground when he walks, which is more difficult than a duck walking.

The small eyes on his round head are always spinning, and even when he is talking to you, those eyes are so busy that you don't know what his eyes are thinking other than what he means in his mouth.

He talked and acted like a housewife.

Even though he is his immediate boss, Li Xin has no good impression of him, and never goes to his office when he is fine.

In fact, this doesn't seem to be Li Xin's feeling alone, the administrative office of the head office has these two offices, and there are few people in Director Luan's office, but there are more people in Li Xin and Xia Xiaona's office. The young people of several branches like to come here and talk and laugh, which is in stark contrast to the next door.

Director Luan took Li Xin's statistical data and looked at it, and asked expressionlessly: "Is there any sugar factory that hasn't reported the data?"

Li Xin replied: "It's all reported, and it won't be delayed if it's too late." Several sugar mills have already been opened. ”

Director Luan asked again, "Isn't Xia Xiaona here yet?"

Li Xin explained: "Not yet. When she got off work yesterday afternoon, she said that she would go to the Light Industry Department this morning to run errands, and she might come later. ”

Director Luan frowned and said, "In the future, you should pay attention to a little bit, pay attention to turn off the lights when you leave work, and save electricity!"

Li Xin didn't react for a while, looked up at the lights on the roof, and said, "I only left when the lights were turned off, and besides, I don't need to turn on the lights in broad daylight." ”

Director Luan lowered his face and said, "Did you say no?" Yesterday afternoon, when it was almost eight o'clock in the afternoon, I saw downstairs that the lights in your office were still on!"

Li Xin suddenly understood, and hurriedly said: "Oh, you mean yesterday afternoon, I stayed in the office until more than eight o'clock after work yesterday, and I turned off the lights when I left." ”

After listening to this, Director Luan's eyes rolled twice, turned around and walked towards the door, and said: "Xia Xiaona came and told her to give me the collected information of Guidong Province and Yuexi Province as soon as possible, and the Sugar Association's semi-monthly internal publication "Sugar Industry Information" will be published soon, and this week's business meeting will also use these data." ”

When he was about to walk to the door, he turned around and said: "Let her be as soon as possible, Mr. Wu is urging and is anxious to get these data." ”

Li Xin said: "Okay, I'll tell her when she comes." ”

Seeing him go out, Li Xin pursed his lips and returned to the table to sit down, thinking, why did he catch all these trivial things?

Looking at his expression, he may not believe his own words at all, and he recognized that he just didn't turn off the lights last night, and those explanations were fooling him. This early in the morning was counted down by him!

Cut! Whatever it is, believe it or not!

He didn't want this unpleasant mood to affect the mood of the day, so he picked up a copy of internal materials and looked through it.

Yuexi Province, Guidong Province and Jiangnan Province are all major provinces in terms of sugarcane planting area and sugar production in China, and the three provinces account for more than 75% of the country's cane sugar.

Sugar is also produced in the Central Plains and the north, but its raw materials are mainly sugar beet, and the sugar produced is beet sugar, also known as cotton white sugar, and its output is far less than that of sucrose.

Li Xin really hasn't seen what this white sugar looks like, but he heard the salesman who came back from outside the province say that it looks better than sucrose, but the sweetness is worse.

At present, the white sugar in the market refers to sucrose.

Li Xin looked at the information with his eyes, but he was thinking about the futures market of the exchange, and he wanted to take time to go to the exchange in the afternoon to see the trend chart of the last few days. There is no K-line chart, just a few data that I know by phone, and I really can't find a feeling.

It would be nice to be able to connect the trading data of the exchange to the company's computer, and you can see the market changes at any time, so you don't have to find time to run to the exchange every few days to read the market.

It's nothing to be tired back and forth, the key is that the top boss Director Luan is not very interested in Li Xin's frequent running of futures exchanges, Li Xin has reported to him several times about what he has learned, and he looks like he ignores it.

It's just that this task was arranged for Li Xin by the general manager Wu Bin, so he didn't say much, but with that disdainful face, he told Li Xin unmistakably that he was not interested in this matter.

A few times Li Xin went to the exchange to see the market, and it was early in the morning, when Director Luan came to look for Li Xin, he saw that he was not in the office, and his face immediately drooped like an insole.

Xia Xiaona reminded Li Xin afterwards, and Li Xin felt very aggrieved when she heard it: the matter of running the exchange to learn information was arranged by the general manager, but Director Luan seemed to think that this matter was unnecessary. I am now caught in the middle, and if I don't pay attention, I won't get a good face here in Director Luan.

Damn, this Director Luan is really, you also know that this matter was explained by Mr. Wu, and I have to go to the exchange from time to time. If you don't want me to do this, you go and tell Mr. Wu, what's the matter with my nose that is not a nose and a face?

Just thinking about this, Lin Li, the business manager of the East China region of the Sucrose Sales Branch, walked in from outside the door: "Li Xin, do you still have cigarettes? ”

Li Xin took out a cigarette, took out one and handed it over: "It's been a long time, I went on a business trip, when did you come back?"

Lin Li sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette, took a puff and said, "I've been in Jiangsu and Zhejiang for almost a month, and I came back the day before yesterday." ”

After speaking, he looked at the cigarette in his hand: "You kid smokes well." ”

Li Xin smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not addicted to smoking, so I can buy a pack of smoke." ”

Lin Li put the cigarette to his mouth again and took a deep breath, and after holding it for a long time, he reluctantly raised his head and spit the smoke into the air, and sighed: "It's still easy to smoke our cigarettes in the south of the Yangtze River! People outside the province like it, and the cigarettes brought by going out to talk about business were robbed out in a few days, so we had to buy local cigarettes to smoke, and those cigarettes couldn't compare with our own cigarettes." ”

Li Xin quipped: "There are other benefits outside the province, there is heaven and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou, we all know that it is a good place, and the beauties are like clouds......, right?"

Lin Li smiled: "No matter how good the place is, if you stay for a long time, you won't feel anything new." Besides, there are still sales tasks to be completed, and I am as tired as a dog all day, how can I have that thought. But the beauty is really beautiful, next time you go on a business trip with us? I will introduce you to a few, haha......"

Li Xin laughed when he heard this, walked to the sofa opposite him and sat down: "That's it, I'll go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang next time to find you!"

At this moment, Xia Xiaona wore a shirt with red floral lapels on a white background, a coffee-colored skirt just above the knee, black half-heeled leather shoes, and a delicate bag on her right shoulder.

As soon as Xia Xiaona entered the door, Lin Li's eyes were firmly fixed on her slender body, and she said with a smile without concealment: "Li Xin wants to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to find beautiful women." ”

Xia Xiaona listened, glanced at Li Xin with a smile, and said, "Li Xin is so handsome, there are so many beauties in Jiangcheng, and you still need to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to find it?"

Li Xin secretly blamed Lin Li in his heart for selling himself with a word, and thought: What kind of intentions does this kid have, is it intentional or unintentional? He perfunctorily said to Xia Xiaona: "The two of us are joking. It's still quiet, and it's troublesome for the company leaders to hear it. ”

Seeing Li Xin say this, Xia Xiaona knew that he didn't want to talk about this topic, so she turned her head and asked Lin Li: "Manager Lin, are you running out of sugar?"

Lin Li said: "It's already sold out." Otherwise, now the new crushing season is about to begin, and as soon as the new sugar comes out, the old sugar will not be sold. ”

As soon as Xia Xiaona mentioned sucrose, Li Xin suddenly remembered and said to Xia Xiaona: "Director Luan came to you just now, and asked you to summarize the information of the new crushing season of sugar factories in Yuexi Province and Guidong Province and give it to him as soon as possible, saying that it will be used in the next issue of "Sugar Industry Information" and this week's business meeting. ”

Xia Xiaona took out a stack of materials from the drawer and said, "Okay, I'll print it all out and give it to him later." ”

Hearing this, Lin Li stood up, walked to Xia Xiaona's desk, picked up a copy of "Sugar Industry Information" and looked through it, and asked, "The new statistical data has come out?" I heard that the sugarcane output in Yuexi and Guidong provinces has decreased a lot this year, is it true?"

Xia Xiaona looked at him in surprise and said, "Where did you find out? ”

Lin Li walked across the table and sat down on Li Xin's chair. Staring at Xia Xiaona, she asked again: "Look at your expression, this news should be true? Last month, when I was selling sugar in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there were many people who spread the rumors, saying that the flood in August this year had destroyed a lot of sugarcane in these two provinces, how much damage was there? Is there any exact data?"

Xia Xiaona glanced at the door and saw that there was no one in the road, so she whispered: "I also know from the information that has been summarized, Guidong Province is expected to reduce production by 15%-20%, and Yuexi Province is slightly better, and it is expected to reduce production by about 10%." ”

After speaking, she told again: "This is internal information, you just know it, don't go outside and talk nonsense." ”

Li Xin has been worrying about how to operate futures these days, listening to her say this, she thought: The main producing areas of raw materials have been reduced so much, the impact on product prices can be imagined, this is an important information!

He immediately got up from the couch, came to the table and whispered, "How big a flood is it that washes away 20% of the sugar cane production?"

Xia Xiaona was a little surprised to see that Li Xin cared so much about the news, and explained with a slight smile: "According to the data, the proportion of washouts is not so much, it is the flood that has soaked for a long time and soaked the sugarcane roots, so the proportion of yield reduction caused by this is the largest." ”

Li Xin thought for a moment and said, "Oh, that's the case! Sugarcane is very troublesome, it can't be done in drought, waterlogging, and frost in winter." ”

Xia Xiaona replied casually: "Who said it wasn't." She went to the coffee table to make a cup of tea, returned to the table and put down the teacup, picked up the information on the table, and said to them: "You guys talk, I'll go to Director Luan's for a while." After saying that, he turned around and went out.

Li Xin leaned against the table, took out a cigarette, took out one and handed it to Lin Li, and lit one himself.

The news he had just heard made him feel excited, but there was not the slightest trace on his face. He pretended to be casual and asked, "Sugarcane production has been reduced so much, the sugar in the new crushing season should be selling well." ”

Lin Li leaned his head back, yawned, looked up at the ceiling and said, "No matter how easy it is to buy or difficult to sell, it's not all the same, anyway, I have to go to the foreign office to stay, and it will be a month or two when I go out." ”

Li Xin further inquired: "The current sugar price is 4380 yuan/ton, which is not low, do you think the price of new sugar will increase after it is listed?"

Lin Li said without thinking: "Definitely." Sugarcane production has been reduced so much, and the gap between supply and demand of cane sugar is relatively large, and it is normal to rise by 400-500 yuan per ton in the peak sales season. ”

Li Xin asked again: "Generally speaking, around New Year's Day, Spring Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, it should be a time when there is more sugar, right?"

Lin Li said, "That's right. So before these holidays, it is the peak season for the sale of cane sugar. ”

Li Xin thought for a moment in her heart and asked, "Today is November 5th, and New Year's Day is not far away, what do you think the price of sugar should be?"

Lin Li replied casually: "Now is the time when the green and yellow are not available, the sugar in the last crushing season in the main producing areas is basically sold out now, and the sugar in the new crushing season has not been sold in large quantities. Coupled with the reduction in raw material production just mentioned, I don't think the price of sugar can fall. ”

He took a puff of his cigarette and asked strangely: "Why do you care about this? Do you really want to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to find beautiful women?" Why don't you talk to Mr. Wu, come to our sugar sales company to run business, there are many opportunities to go to the south, hahaha......

At this time, Li Xin was quickly combing through the information he learned from Xia Xiaona and Lin Li, and he immediately made a decision: he should hurry up and go to the futures market to open a position to buy some sucrose in the futures market in the next two days, otherwise there will be no chance when the news of the shortage of raw materials spreads.

Hearing Lin Li say this, he casually threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray, and said with a smile: "If you don't understand something, ask you front-line business masters for advice." The Jingmei people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are more beautiful, and you must go to see it if you have the opportunity. ”
