Chapter 65: The Meeting

??

A few days later, the "meeting party" before the departure of the "sea bumpers" was held again at the house of the "old swordfish".

This time is different from the past, everyone knows about the price reduction of sea cucumbers in Bincheng, and it is inevitable that they are a little worried. They all really had a headache like they had touched their heads.

This reaction is not difficult to understand, because in the planned economy of those years, the prices of officially set commodities rarely changed significantly. Once it changes, it will basically be a long-term thing.

To be honest, the price of sea cucumbers in Bencheng has been maintained for more than ten years. Then it is completely conceivable how great the impact of this sudden price change is on society.

Taking 10,000 steps back, at least in the hearts of Bincheng people, they will think that compared with before, sea cucumbers will definitely maintain a low price for a few years.

So for these "sea bumpers" who rely on selling sea cucumbers to eat, the reduction of income is everyone's consensus for the future, and who can easily get it in their hearts?

It should be said that Hong Yanwu had expected everyone's panic and low mood.

So after meeting with everyone, he didn't delay for a moment, so he rushed out the real money and paid the sea cucumber money to everyone.

This is how the sea cucumber was acquired.

Due to the fact that the "three zi", "shrimp crawler" and "little baizi" rushed to all places to notify them at the first time, the "sea bumpers" stopped their hands in time to a certain extent, and did not spread their hands like last time, and collected sea cucumbers for five or six hundred catties at every turn. But the sea cucumbers that have been harvested are not small, and there are more than 200 catties in and out of the city.

In addition, in the past few days, the trading price of other "sea bumpers" in the market has fallen quite hard, and they have dropped two yuan directly, and it has reached about nine yuan a catty. Therefore, the person who received the most sea ginseng this time couldn't help but look a little ashamed.

Like "Old Knife Fish" and "Three Warriors", they each received about 50 catties. At this time, they put forward one after another, saying that they would only deliver it at the original price of their purchase cost, even if it was nine yuan a catty, so as not to suffer losses because of themselves and everyone's public accounts.

But they never expected that Hong Yanwu said that the price reduction was purely accidental, it was not everyone's fault, and there was no reason to make individuals suffer. So in the end, I still insisted on the price agreed at the beginning and accepted the sea cucumbers in everyone's hands.

In this way, after getting the real tickets, the "sea bumpers" immediately became a lot more down-to-earth, and everyone was grateful for Hong Yanwu's understanding.

At this point, Hong Yanwu's original intention of stabilizing the army's morale has been initially achieved.

But that's not all, in order to further eliminate the worries in everyone's hearts, Hong Yanwu followed up and reported the public account to everyone.

When I heard the figures on the public account, there were 15,000 yuan in cash and 2,400 catties of sea cucumbers. The "sea bumpers" rejoiced when they landed.

They immediately realized that they had already become real rich people. So what are you afraid of?

So everyone smiled, and even "Sanjiazi" suggested, "It's better to just divide the money, and the sea cucumber will be sold out as soon as possible." From now on, whether he loves to descend or not, it has nothing to do with everyone. ”

It's just that he didn't expect that Hong Yanwu didn't even think about it, so he resolutely vetoed this suggestion that made everyone interested on the spot.

His answer was just one sentence.

"Are you all right? Think about it, even if the price is low, we will still make money by continuing to sell sea cucumbers according to the old method! We will never reach the point where we can sell sea cucumbers for nine yuan at a low price!

Don't say it, it's true!

The "sea bumpers" came to their senses.

Hey, as soon as I heard the news of the price reduction, everyone was stunned.

Everyone is only worried about the reduction of income, and all they think about in their minds is how good it would be if the price of sea cucumber is reduced, and the discussion is when the official price will return to the old level. However, they forgot that their method of making money is no longer the old way in the past.

Since Hong Yanwu, the god of wealth, the price of their sea cucumbers has always been several times higher than the price of other "sea cucumbers". Although the price may be lower in the future, as long as the price sold in the guest house is the same as in the store, it is still much better than before, and it is still much better than other "sea bumpers", and it will not hurt the muscles and bones at all.

What's more, the price of collecting sea cucumbers is still low, since they have a way to increase the price and sell out, how can they also make money!

That...... These days...... It turned out to be all nonsense!

Thinking about it this way, on the spot, there were several people who felt ashamed that they couldn't hold their breath.

Especially the "three gangsters" who just proposed to break up the gang, felt that they were stupid. His face was as red as a boiled crab, and he laughed.

But what is even more unexpected is that just when the "sea bumpers" collectively breathed a sigh of relief and thought that they had figured it out, Hong Yanwu had another amazing move.

He actually said that in fact, in his opinion, the price reduction of sea cucumbers this time is not only far from a bad thing, but even a great good thing!

This made everyone fall into deeper doubts. Many people couldn't help but look at each other.

Seriously, although Hong Yanwu has always shown a cool head and extraordinary insight, this is too shocking to make everyone wonder if Hong Yanwu suddenly short-circuited his brain. It's just that because of the situation, everyone is still embarrassed to say it.

Of course, Hong Yanwu's ability to make such a judgment is by no means empty words, but has a factual basis. So, in line with the principle that there is no right to speak if there is no investigation, he quickly explained the results of the investigation in the past few days.

Everyone present knew that the "general" was a member of the "lifting club". "Crane company" was the most important component of urban logistics and transportation force in those years.

If the fishery company increases the supply of seafood, the task of transporting large quantities of goods from outside the city into the city will be handled by the automobile fleet, but the task of distributing the goods to the various fish stores from the storehouses in the city has always been entrusted to the "crane cooperatives" in each city, which are mainly tricycles.

Therefore, under Hong Yanwu's arrangement, the "general" returned to the "Lifting Society" to inquire about transportation news with leaders and colleagues, and even went to the "Lifting Society" in other urban areas to verify it again.

According to the feedback from the news, there is no significant increase in the transportation tasks undertaken by the "lifting companies" in various places, and no one feels a significant increase in the cargo of sea cucumbers.

So good, and then according to the information obtained, Hong Yanwu, Chen Liquan and the "general" then made further investigations.

They went separately to the warehouses of several aquatic companies in the city, and smoked and drank with the janitor and the storekeeper.

According to the information they received from these people, not only did the stock of sea cucumbers of the fishery company not increase significantly, but the sales of sea cucumbers decreased rapidly due to a few days of price reduction.

In particular, there is an old warehouse manager who is an old man who has estimated based on experience, saying that if there is no supply of goods to be replenished, the inventory of several warehouses will not bottom out in the autumn.

This shows that from the point of view of the supply of goods, this price reduction is completely unreasonable.

That's really strange, since there is no additional supply of sea cucumbers, what kind of price will the aquatic company drop?

In the end, it was up to Han Ying to figure out this problem.

As mentioned earlier, Han Ying Middle School is a key school, and her classmates are naturally all top learners, and there are not a few children of cadres. Although some of these people have been unlucky due to the fall of their parents, some are still on the stage, and some have recently returned to work.

Of course, it is not so easy to ask others to do things just by relying on the relationship between classmates. But it is not difficult to get some news from them.

Hong Yanwu knew the temperament of the cadres' children, so he paid for the idea and asked Han Ying to come forward to hold a "class reunion dinner". She called all the good classmates to gather in the restaurant outside and ate and drank for nothing.

As a result, this move not only made Han Ying a good person, but also made a small limelight, and really figured out the specific situation here.

Han Ying has a female classmate's husband who works in the supply and marketing department of the aquatic company, and the mother of another male classmate is the manager of a marketing point of the aquatic company.

At that time, after Han Ying finished ordering food in the restaurant, she deliberately pretended to be curious and talked about the current price reduction of sea cucumbers.

So as soon as these two classmates showed each other and showed off how well-informed they were, they also revealed the true inside story.

According to them, it all started because the aquatic company had a new deputy general manager surnamed Zhou. It was an old cadre who had been knocked down a few years ago, and now it was reactivated.

This old man is very old-fashioned and has a very good reputation. On the one hand, there is a mouth full of "Marxism-Leninism", and on the other hand, he opens his mouth and closes his mouth to "think about the common people" and "the price of seafood must be popularized".

So the three fires he wanted to burn when he took office, the first one was to target the sea cucumbers with high prices.

Of course, this vice president Zhou is not stupid, and the price reduction of goods is only an administrative order, but the replenishment of goods must also be arranged in advance. And his reliance, that is, after the end of the "movement", the fishery production in Ben Cheng has been restored to a certain extent.

At present, professional fishing teams in wetsuits work overtime every day in state-designated farms. In the ocean, the fishing brigades of various fishing villages are also comparing with each other, catching up with and refreshing past achievements. In addition, according to industry estimates, by the autumn of this year, the supply of all types of seafood should at least double compared with previous years.

As a result, the results of these investigations on subordinate units have become Vice President Zhou's confidence, so that he dares to implement the price reduction of sea cucumbers.

There are even reliable sources claiming that as long as the response to the price reduction of sea cucumbers is good, the vice president Zhou is ready to launch a follow-up policy. He not only intends to reduce the price of sea cucumbers a second time, but even expands this price reduction method to two sea treasures, namely "prawns" and "scallops", which are also high-priced.

In fact, Vice President Zhou's thoughts can be understood by normal people with a little brain.

It's nothing more than that he thinks that the stock of sea cucumbers can be maintained until autumn, and as long as the sea cucumber fishing season comes, the new goods will make up for the old ones, which will not be a problem at all.

The common people celebrate the "Eleventh", organize the wedding ceremony, and have a low-cost supply of sea cucumbers in advance, which is not only beneficial to his own official reputation, but also can really benefit the people, and at the same time achieve the effect of a prosperous market.

Isn't that killing three birds with one stone? What a good thing!

Hong Yanwu quickly introduced these basic information, and his original intention was to explain to everyone clearly the origin of this price reduction and the actual situation faced by the market.

But as soon as he said this, many of the "sea bumpers" became even more confused, and they all thought that judging from this situation, this was obviously a bad thing! How could it have become a good thing?

The price of sea cucumber must not become the price of eggplant? Even if Hong Yanwu can still sell it at the price of the store, it will also suffer a loss!

Not to mention other "sea bumpers", if this is the case, then I am afraid that a large number of people will not go to the sea again, it is not worth it!

How did Hong Yanwu laugh and said, "Just because this is a good thing, you have to listen to me slowly." ”

Then, he confidently gave everyone a more in-depth analysis.
