Chapter 168, the reception of the operation to the Soviet Union

"It's already ninety years!" Li Ya said, with sighs and intentions. In ninety, Li Ya was thirty years old, and he stood at thirty, time passed too fast, and it has been fourteen years since he came to this era.

Looking back over the past 14 years, the only thing he is proud of is that he has donated a lot of money, which has played a positive role in the education of the Three North Project and backward areas. As for the establishment of the group and the holding of shares in Microsoft, it did not bring him much sense of achievement, compared to the trading companies and banks to drive some of the enterprises. Over the years, the group has really made achievements, only one, which is to make a mobile phone that is considered advanced nowadays.

"Still, we're halfway through the tough times. Li Ya said, "It will get better and better in the future." ”

Just as he was sighing, he heard the sound of the car, the horn sounded, and Li Ya hurriedly opened the door. The truck drove into the yard and stopped, and the eldest brother came out of the passenger cab and shouted, "The third year of junior high school, the wood you want has been brought for you." ”

"I'll see how. Li Ya said and climbed up to the cargo box, looked inside, and said, "Big brother, why do you pull such a big section? Just take a short section and carve a small object. ”

The eldest brother poured two cups of tea and asked the driver to drink it, and drank it quickly before he said: "You didn't make it clear, just said that you wanted a piece of red sandalwood, I'm afraid that it's not enough to make trouble again, so I just choose a bigger one." ”

"This stump is not bad, what kind of material is this?" Li Ya looked at the stump twice and asked.

The eldest brother said, "Don't you want red sandalwood? ”

"It's so thick, it's good, you can carve a big thing. Li Ya said happily.

After putting the materials aside, Li Ya also sat down, and the eldest brother smiled: "It's okay, I can still do heavy work." The second child doesn't dare to do this now. ”

"When you're older, it's time to pay attention. Li Ya said, "The second uncle is only carrying more than 400 catties now." ”

"That's comparable, your second uncle is almost sixty. The eldest brother laughed.

"Big brother, how are you doing over there?" asked Li Ya. Some time ago, they said it was normal, and Li Ya didn't ask in detail.

"The sales volume of the furniture factory has decreased a lot. The eldest brother said, "Especially the mid-to-high-end furniture, many people are reluctant to buy it." ”

"The sharp drop in exports will definitely affect the domestic economy. Li Ya said, "But it's all temporary." Make some preparations first, and you can also have some goods. ”

"We also think so, although the production has decreased a little, but not much, and the wood has been stockpiled. The eldest brother said, "That stump was bought not long ago." ”

"Where's the supermarket?"

"The supermarket is basically unaffected, and everyone has to live a life, right?" said the eldest brother, "but those manufacturers who supply us all want us to buy more, and they also take the initiative to reduce the price for us." But that's all we have in the supermarket, where do we get so many goods? ”

"They are having a hard time, and I hope you will give them a hand. Li Ya smiled, "Yes, it just so happens that the Soviet Union is out of stock, and I will make a list for you, and you look at the purchase, and the money is not enough to find me." ”

"You let us help you buy the goods, don't you have a way to buy the goods yourself?" the eldest brother asked suspiciously.

"I want you to help buy the goods, you buy it yourself. Li Ya explained, "The Soviet Union's food and light industry products are becoming more and more scarce, so you will sell them with us after you buy them." On the one hand, they make a fortune themselves, and on the other hand, they do them a great favor. I think you can't buy much by yourself, so it's better for them to participate in it. In this case, you should first talk to them about the purchase of goods, and by the way, ask them if they would like to participate in the trade with the Soviet Union. If we wish, we will have a cocktail party and gather everyone to talk to them about the situation of trade with the Soviet Union and the problems that need to be paid attention to. ”

The eldest brother has been in business for a few years, and he knows what Li Ya means, and helping them when they are in difficulty now, which is very beneficial to the development of the supermarket. So he said: "I'll tell them and ask them to inform the supplier." ”

The venue of the cocktail party is in the newly opened restaurant of Uncle Li Ya, which is newly decorated from the inside to the outside, and it looks like a high-grade hotel.

A middle-aged man with a black face got out of the car with two middle-aged people, who were also middle-aged people, and looked around and said, "Is it here?" Although he was wearing a suit, his sturdy figure and large suit couldn't hide it, maybe the suit was uncomfortable to wear, and he twisted his body from time to time.

"Boss, it's here, Begonia Restaurant. The middle-aged man on the left said.

Another pointed to the sign outside the hotel gate and said, "Look, the sign that says 'Warmly welcome guests to the Soviet trade reception to visit our store', this is it." ”

"Fortunately, you can take a taxi and arrive directly, otherwise how can you find such a big Shanghai?" said the blackface boss.

"Boss Guo, are you here too?"

"It's Boss Zhou. Boss Guo sighed, "The goods are backlogged, and the wages of the workers are almost unpaid, so how can I not come and take a look after this news!"

"Me too, the factories are about to dissolve. As soon as I knew the news, I came in a hurry. Boss Zhou also sighed, "Business is getting worse and worse, I still have some of the payment unsettled, I have no money!"

"Me too. Boss Guo said, "It's not just us, you see that these people who came today are also all sad, and they seem to be the same as us." ”

Almost the same words were said in the mouths of the people who communicated in the hall, everyone was complaining, this time they were really pitted, and they were doing a good job, and suddenly they came to such a slap, and everyone was powerless.

"Mr. Zhu, you just drink less, if you drink again, you will get drunk. A middle-aged man in his forties with a beard on his face drank three or four glasses in a row, and a young man with glasses next to him hurriedly stopped him and persuaded him.

"Drunk to death!" said the middle-aged man with a scumbag beard with red eyes, "It's not that I don't work hard, it's really that this market is too fucked up." It's good to be drunk, but you don't have to think about the factory when you die. "He was tormented by the current state of the factory's operation, and he was going crazy.

"Mr. Zhu, there will always be a way. Aren't we here to find a way to sell us?" the young man comforted.

"That's right, Mr. Zhu, don't drink anymore. Not far away, a boss who was chatting with someone saw that Mr. Zhu was not in the right state, and when he came over to hear the young man's words, he said.

"It's Mr. Chang. Mr. Zhu said, "Don't persuade me." ”

"Mr. Zhu, Mr. Li from Yijia Supermarket will be here in a while, if you are drunk and don't hear anything, don't blame your brother for not telling you. Mr. Chang smiled.

"What, you have a lot of confidence in them?" asked Mr. Zhu.

"Of course there is confidence. Mr. Chang said, "I have heard the news of this before, but at that time our products were not worried about sales, so I did not think about this matter, if we also did it at that time, maybe today I will hold a drinking party to introduce you to the situation of Soviet trade." ”

"I've also heard about this, and it is said that many fallen masters in the Northeast have made a fortune. A boss next to him answered.

"I've heard of it too. ”

"I've heard of it too. ”

……

"It seems that there are still a lot of people who know about this, but they have not been involved in the operation, and they don't know what the real situation is. Mr. Chang said.

"Those who know the real situation are here, you see that the few people who came in with Mr. Li and them must have gone to the Soviet Union to do business. One of the bosses said.

"Well, thank you for your help to our supermarket over the years, and thank you for trusting us to participate in this reception. Li Yuanfang took the microphone and said, "The purpose of today's cocktail party is to go to the Soviet Union to do business." I don't know about this either, I haven't been to the Soviet Union, I just know that the Soviet Union is north of us and has no right to speak. So, about going to the Soviet Union to do business, you have to ask these people around me. They have just returned from the Soviet Union, what should they pay attention to when doing business in the Soviet Union, what goods are selling well, what they buy from the Soviet Union, you can ask them. Now the reception has begun, and everyone is chatting while drinking. ”

Talking while drinking, who still pays attention to drinking at this time, immediately surrounded Wu Yong and a few of them, you and I asked one by one, and now they are most concerned about whether their products are marketable.

Originally, Wu Yong and the others were ready to tell everyone about the situation of the Soviet Union's trade, but the reality exceeded their estimates, and each of them asked as clearly as possible, so many people made them tired to deal with, and their mouths were dry, and it took a few glasses of beer to relieve their stomachs. But if you drink too much beer, you have to go to the toilet, Wu Yong went to the toilet and came out, came to the corner where Li Yuanfang was chatting, and said: "Mr. Li, I knew that I would bring a few more people back." ”

Li Yuanfang smiled: "I don't know how there are so many people. One part of the suppliers and attachés we invited, and the other part should have heard the news and ran over by themselves, and we didn't expect so many people to come back. How's that, thirsty? Come, have a cup of tea and moisten your throat. Li Yuanfang said and poured a cup of tea for Wu Yong.

Wu Yong took a sip and said: "Fortunately, we often drink with the Soviets in the Soviet Union, and the amount of alcohol has been trained, otherwise the thirst quenched with beer just now was not only not quenched, but I got drunk first." ”

"I heard that the Soviets drank very fiercely, is it true?" asked Li Yuanfang curiously.

"The word 'fierce' is used well, the Soviets are really fierce when they drink. Wu Yong sighed, "We drank forty or fifty degrees of wine enough, and we couldn't drink much." But when people drink vodka, it's also forty or fifty degrees, like drinking water. Every time we drank with the Soviets, we got drunk and were afraid to mention it. ”

Wu Yong finished drinking the tea and went to answer the questions. got the answer he wanted, put down the big stone in his heart one by one, and now it was really a drinking party, drinking happily one by one until he got drunk and was helped to sleep by the attaché.
