Chapter 143: Fur Collar
It turns out that these two people are also not locals, they are from Yuyao.
In the mountains of their hometown, a thing called "Lamao fruit" is produced.
Originally, the brigade only burned this kind of thing as firewood, but later the Japanese found out and bought it for eight cents each.
This time the brigade made a fortune.
Later, the brigade slowly figured out what the Japanese were buying this thing for.
It turns out that this thing is used for cotton wool textile fleece, and the principle used in production is quite simple.
It only takes an automatic hinge to apply this hair-pulling fruit, and in less than a minute, the semi-finished product made of puffed sand can be turned into plush.
So the local families started their own small workshops, using imitation clay machines to produce this kind of fur collar.
In the harsh winter, this kind of wool collar produced with "hairy fruit" is beautiful and warm around the neck.
It was originally a very ordinary winter coat, but as soon as it was paired with this collar, it immediately became a grade.
Therefore, since its launch, it has become a popular local commodity and is in short supply.
After a few years of popularity, even Cixi and Ningbo are counted, and almost all places that produce this kind of "hair fruit" have done this job.
Naturally, more and more products are produced, not only sold all over Zhejiang Province, but also exported to Wuhan and Changsha.
This year, winter has come very early, and sleet has been falling since the beginning of November.
At this time, many people came to buy goods, and almost all the inventory that was not sold last year in the production area was sold out early.
What are you doing without adding full power!
As a result, many workshops began to expand their scale, wanting to make a lot of money in a good year.
But what no one expected was that this business had flourished in a few years, and under the joint production of Yuyao, Cixi and Ningbo, the market in the nearby area was close to saturation.
Those who bought the goods early this year are still afraid of buying less, but the goods they eat have actually exceeded the real demand of the market.
And soon, the weather forecast told the nearby city that the weather was about to get warmer.
This time it's good, no one dares to enter when the fur collar is on board.
The price was also immediate, and it fell like diving.
Within two days, the origin of Yuyao fell from a profit of two or three cents to four or five cents.
How can this kind of mental gap make people bearable?
Most producers are angry and do not sell, looking forward to the cold weather, and looking forward to recruiting customers from afar.
It's just a pity, although it didn't take long for the weather to get cooler again.
But those distant customers in Wuhan and Changsha have gradually found that this year's wool collar is particularly difficult to sell.
When the shrewd people see that the wind is not in the right direction, they all rush to sell it at a low price, and they will definitely not eat it again.
You must know that our country's market economy is in the ascendant at this time, and the phenomenon of immature private economy following the trend is quite serious.
Once this situation is too much and a herd effect is formed, no one can stop it.
As a result, self-employed people in Wuhan and Changsha have become direct contributors to price diving.
This time the mud and sand are down, the market has plummeted, whether from the sales place or the place of origin, the real jumping sale has completely begun.
By the time most people have understood, it's too late.
The fragrant dumplings of the past have suddenly become something that people can't avoid and everyone dislikes.
Not to mention selling it with guaranteed capital, it's good to lose less.
So everyone even tried their best to end the sell-off, and they didn't hesitate to clear the inventory.
By the beginning of December, the catastrophic panic had reached its extreme.
These new goods that have just been produced this year, even if the owner is willing to admit one-third, cannot be sold.
And the two cargo owners that Hong Yanwu met were a pair of brothers, and they purely belonged to the ranks of hindsight.
They had a backlog of 29,000 wool collars in their hands and could not get rid of them in time, and they still owed thousands of yuan in debt this year by ordering machines, expanding their manpower, and buying raw materials.
That's really the old Ben is all pressed.
This can't be sold, let alone lose all the belongings accumulated over the years.
What should I do when the promised March repayment deadline arrives?
The two brothers were in a hurry, and tried to find a way everywhere.
If you want to say that it is also a desperate situation, you will soon find a way to sell through your younger brother's elementary school classmates, that is, Huacheng.
Of course, it doesn't mean that you have to sell the fur collar directly to the people of Huacheng, then the ghost will ask for it.
It's because my brother's elementary school classmates have distant relatives in Huacheng, and his cousin is now doing business on "Gaudy Street".
The most coincidental thing is that the small boss of this flower city is also talking about business with seven or eight self-employed people from Chongqing.
And by the way, I mentioned this matter, but I didn't expect these people to be very interested and offered to eat this batch of goods.
It's just that these Chongqing people not only kept the price very low, only willing to pay four cents for each wool collar, but also demanded that the freight be transported to Huacheng so that they could be transported by rail.
In addition, when the business was completed, the small boss of Huacheng also asked for a thousand yuan of "tea money".
In this way, to make this business, the brothers' capital will be at least one-third.
Although it's a little better than not being able to sell out, it's enough to make people feel distressed.
But after hesitating for a long time, the brothers finally decided to set off and hired a car to bring all the goods to Huacheng.
Because one is that time is pressing.
Three days later, the people of Chongqing will go back, and this kind of goods will have to be sold in season, and if you miss this village, you may not have this store.
The second is that the last phone call from the small boss of Huacheng persuaded them.
The little boss said that they were stupid, claiming that there were a lot of good goods in Huacheng.
As long as he comes here and sells the fur collar, and has the money in his hand, he can help them get some original electrical appliances and sell them back to Yuyao.
So what is this shortfall? This time and again, you will have to make thousands of dollars if you don't get it right.
It is true that this is the truth, but when the two brothers made up their minds, they did not expect that there was a great risk in making a desperate bet and betting on the whole warehouse.
As a result, they really waited for them to eat and sleep in the open, and rushed to Huacheng non-stop, but something went wrong.
The small boss of Huacheng and a few Chongqing people have just been "connected to the pot" by the public security, and the reason is that they resell smuggled goods.
It's so unlucky!
This is good, that is really called the heavens and the earth!
The two brothers ran to nowhere to go, and they wanted to cry without tears.
The money on their bodies was paid for the car, and there was only less than 50 yuan left, so they didn't dare to live there, and they couldn't go back.
Selling on the street is not said to be illegal, but it is also ridiculed in vain. No matter who sees them as fools, no one cares at all.
Thanks to the fact that the temperature in Huacheng is not low, after unloading the goods at the gate of "Gaodi Street" yesterday, they were able to guard the goods and make do with the open air all night.
In such an almost desperate situation, once they found out that Hong Yanwu was from the capital, how could they not regard him as a life-saving straw?
Of course their brother is not stupid, the weather in the capital is definitely colder than Wuhan and Changsha.
And Hong Yanwu's gang doesn't look like they are out of tolerance, if they can really buy a batch of fur collars, their situation will not be alive.
So crying and wiping tears and begging became inevitable.
