Chapter 25: The Surface Brothers

Two hours later, Wenchang Road in the city center, Yuezhou Restaurant.

Gu Kun arrived a little earlier than Xu Feng and ordered all the signature dim sum here to prepare for the guests. Although there are many varieties, each dim sum is not too large, but it is not too wasteful.

There weren't so many bells and whistles for new brands in the 90s, but if you dare to name your store after a city, it's probably not bad. And Yuezhou Restaurant is a time-honored brand that opened during the Republic of China, and it is naturally the most famous in the morning tea industry.

It didn't take long for Xu Feng to arrive. Gu Kun motioned to the waiter to serve snacks, and immediately two crab roe wings came up.

The habit of "rinsing your mouth with a bowl of shark fin" that club bosses often see in Hong Kong films drinking tea and chatting about things actually originated from this dish.

Shark fin slid with lard and fine flower carving, stewed in chicken broth to make a smooth soup, and finally thickened with crab roe blended with chestnut powder.

Let the shark fin lose the soft glutinous in the traditional soup dish, and only take its smooth and elastic teeth. The style instantly changed from a grand banquet dish to a light morning tea soup.

Xu Feng obviously eats like this often, and he doesn't speak, and first quietly enjoys this crab roe big raw wings, which is very elegant and skillful.

After drinking the shark fin, the waiter quickly put on the four-color steamer again and lined it up in an orderly manner.

Needless to say, those common signature dim sum, Gu Kun only removed the two must-haves of shrimp dumplings and phoenix feet, and asked for the signature potted duck paw of the Guangdong restaurant.

This duck paw is a veritable "palm", that is, only the palm of the duck claw is taken off the bone, as for the fingers and foot parts of the duck claws, it is not necessary. Then the shrimp slip is injected into the cavity left by the bone extraction, and finally the ship girl is cooked in a complex manner.

A small dish of fried duck paws with flowers does not seem to be large, only 24 small balls, but in fact, 24 duck claws are used.

In a morning tea, if you order this dish, and then order other snacks made of shrimp and palms, it will be like a dog's tail mink.

Xu Feng tasted one, then glanced at the tabletop, and found that there were no shrimp dumplings and phoenix feet to spoil the scenery, and smiled: "Very good at eating, it seems that my brother is used to the lifestyle of the upper class Cantonese people." ”

He saw that Gu Kun was as ambitious as he was when he was young and was willing to spend money on face.

Although this kind of judgment will make him lower his assessment of Gu Kun's true strength, it will make him more willing to cooperate with Gu Kun.

Don't bully young people to be poor, young people dare to gamble and throw money, and it is often more rare than being really rich.

After all, the business atmosphere in China today is still a state of barbarism that supports the bold and starves the timid, and the empty white wolf opposes a lot of people who are opportunistic. The steady and prudent style will become popular in at least another four or five years.

After eating a few snacks, Xu Feng knocked on the side and asked what he meant.

Gu Kuncai gradually brought the topic to the right thing: "Actually, it's nothing, just talk." After all, I am a foreigner, I don't know much about the market of many industries in China, and I don't have any friends, Brother Xu, you have a wide range of people......"

Xu Feng interrupted playfully: "What the hell do you want to do? Let me tell you the truth, although I myself focus on making seafood, I have friends all over the world. If you talk to me in generalities, I won't be able to help you. ”

Gu Kun heard it, Xu Feng also wanted to exchange information and business opportunities with him, and he didn't see a rabbit or an eagle.

Mixed societies have this sensitivity.

It's really hard to talk without revealing your thoughts at all. However, the core competitiveness must not be revealed, and can only be said to be inspiring.

Gu Kun sorted it out and retouched it, and said euphemistically: "Actually, Brother Xu, you should also know that in the past few months, the price of those high-end seafood you have imported has increased in RMB." ”

Xu Feng took a sip of Tieguanyin: "That's for sure, the RMB depreciated so much last month." Not only are import prices rising, but domestic prices are also rising. In the city of Guangdong, pork has jumped from three yuan to four yuan five. ”

Gu Kun: "But the prices in your country, after all, not all categories have risen - pork does respond quickly, that is because everyone has to eat it every day, and the transmission speed of the value depression is fast."

However, those consumer goods that are not related to people's livelihood every day and have a relatively long cycle have not had time to rise. If these things can be sold to neighboring countries due to a time difference, it may be more than 20% of the profit. ”

Gu Kun didn't mention diesel, he just said theoretical analysis in general, so that Xu Feng would not immediately realize his core interests.

Xu Feng's eyes really lit up: "Do you want me to help you investigate those commodity categories that have not increased in price for more than two months since the end of December last year?"

"Almost, Brother Xu, I dare to say that I am the first person to propose this idea to you in the past two months, and I also hope that everyone will earn money together. Gu Kun played a buddy righteous card.

Xu Feng bowed slightly: "Indeed, most of my friends are domestic, and foreign trade is mainly imported, and no one exports, and their vision in this regard is indeed not as good as yours." Just by virtue of what you just mentioned, it is worth at least 180,000 favors.

However, your question is still too general and too difficult to investigate. Do you have any general reselling goals, let me help you refer to them. ”

Gu Kun thought about it for a while, and confided in a target that he felt was the least likely for Xu Feng to cut off his beard:

"I have to give an example. I'll just say that, if I can't find other things to resell in the intermediate stage, I finally plan to take advantage of the overall rise in prices in China, and use all the RMB I have on hand to buy ships and shipbuilders - this is my old business, a boat starts at 2 million, and I can spend as much yuan as I hoard. ”

Xu Feng nodded, buying a ship is indeed a large enough transaction, which can be called a cash flow black hole.

Then, he thought of it a little more, and subconsciously asked: "Brother Gu, you didn't just go to that boat before, right? It's a shame that Section Chief Chen of the Customs still takes you as a well-known patriotic overseas Chinese hospitality, and your kid's ability to pull the tiger and pull the banner is really powerful." ”

Gu Kun pondered the other party's motives and tone, and chose to admit calmly: "Brother Xu really has a good eye, you can see this." ”

Of course, this kind of "calmness" is only the level to which Cao Cao faced Xu Yu when he asked for food.

Xu Feng is very complacent: "Capital, courage, and ability are all part of the comprehensive strength." The fact that you have less money and can still get things done shows that you are slightly more courageous than I expected. What's more, there is such a boat, at least it can be regarded as a millionaire, not bad. ”

Hehe, Lao Tzu was not even a millionaire at the beginning, but only a 50,000 millionaire. The million-dollar ship was chartered for 50,000 yuan (equivalent to 50,000 yuan).

This Xu Yu is not qualified. Even the paragraph "Everyone in the world says that Meng De is a traitor, and today is true" didn't deceive, so I believed it directly.

After Xu Feng sighed, he thought that he had been satisfied, his thinking was really active, and his speech became more heartfelt.

After thinking about it for a while, he pointed out a way for Gu Kun: "Since you tell you the secret, I will also give you some dry goods."

First of all, if you end up planning to exchange all the renminbi for ships, I advise you not to place orders in the shipyards in eastern Guangdong and Hujian. In the shipyard here, orders for fishing boats have always been in demand, and the material turnover is also fast, and most of them have risen by the time you make up your mind. To buy a fishing boat, you have to go to a shipyard in Donghai Province or Jiangnan Province to place an order. ”

"Oh, why?" Gu Kun also became serious.

He gave Xu Feng so many dry goods today, and finally Xu Feng also returned some really valuable insiders to him.

Xu Feng proudly analyzed: "You don't know, the state has begun to discuss the policy of fishing ban this year, as well as the total power control of motorized fishing vessels in various provinces."

After the negotiations of all parties, the current rumor is that the Fisheries Bureau of the Ministry of Agriculture has tentatively suggested that starting next year, the fishing ban period in the East China Sea will be implemented first, and the total power control of fishing vessels will be implemented on a trial basis. And on the South China Sea side, it will take a few more years. Therefore, the shipyard on the other side of the East China Sea is full of sorrow at this juncture.

It is possible that if you delay until May or June to place an order for shipbuilding, the raw materials in people's warehouses are still the inventories that were imported when the RMB was worth the value last year, and with the tonality of state-owned enterprises, since their raw materials have not been transmitted by the rise in prices, their shipment prices will not rise.

Brother is righteous enough, if I help you save two or three hundred thousand yuan on a 2 million boat, I will definitely be worthy of the business opportunities you told me today. ”

"That is, Brother Xu, you are righteous enough, and I will make up for it in the future. ”

The two superficial brothers who exchanged interests continued to staggered and wronged.
