Chapter 443: Zhao Sheng (Asking for Subscription)
After Liu Cuifang's business got on the right track, Lin Qi didn't bother to take care of it. The rest of the small business with the Soviet Union was completely handed over to Zhao Sheng.
Zhao Sheng's Hong Lim Trading China Co., Ltd. is developing well.
It is inconspicuous in China, and it mainly owns a temporary wholesale market built with containers as materials. Moreover, it is a market opened in a Sino-Soviet border city, so the domestic customers are negligible.
But the grandfather and Maozi are very interested in this company. Because of the existence of Hong Lim Trading Company, many traders have shortened the cycle of purchasing goods from China.
Imagine that it would have taken at least a month to make a purchase, and then it would take a long time to sell these goods in the Soviet Union, which seriously affected the efficiency of those who had fallen behind to make money.
Hong Lim Trading China Co., Ltd., on the other hand, provides goods that are a little more expensive than the retail price in the domestic market. However, it was still very cheap and cost-effective to get to the territory of the Soviet Union. Some small-scale merchants and black marketeers simply went directly to Zhao Sheng's trading company to pick up the goods, and then set up stalls in the Soviet Union or sold them through other channels.
Recently, Zhao Sheng's Hong Lim Trading Company has a large amount of Chinese liquor, which is almost unlimited. This news attracted countless Maozi to venture across the border to take a look at the situation.
"At what price are you going to sell so much liquor?" a black marketeer named Andre poured a glass of Erguotou that could be tasted for free, took a few sips, and nodded, feeling very satisfied.
Although Maozi is generally a drunkard, the level of wine tasting is average. Erguotou can already satisfy Maozi, and taking out famous wines such as Moutai and Wuliangye not only reduces the profit margin, but also is a pure waste.
"3 yuan a bottle!" Zhao Sheng said with a smile.
To be honest, this price scared Andrei a little, not because he felt that it was expensive, but because he felt that it was too cheap. You know, in recent years, the price of Chinese goods has actually been rising, but compared with the shortage of the Soviet Union, many Chinese goods do not have that kind of problem, so the market can still get a large number of consumer goods cheaply. For example, liquor and the like, China used to restrict the purchase, because in the past, the grain production was not enough, in order to ensure the supply of food, so the consumption of alcohol must not be encouraged. However, in the 80s, the supply of pesticides and fertilizers increased greatly, so that the output of agriculture also increased year by year, so it gradually had some confidence.
After this wine was brought to the Soviet Union, five times the profit should not be a problem.
"Okay, I want 10,000 bottles, do you have them?" Andre happily agreed to Zhao Sheng's price.
"No problem, this is only a small amount, however, I suggest approving 12,000 bottles!" Zhao Sheng put forward his own suggestion,
"Why?" wondered Andrei.
"Because, 12 bottles in a box. 10,000 bottles I still have to find loose ones, 120,000 bottles, that is, 1,000 boxes, transportation and settlement are convenient. Of course, I only accept cash here, or the goods that China needs, such as timber, steel, copper, gasoline, diesel, fertilizer, and automobiles!" Zhao Sheng explained simply, "The quotation is for you!"
"Yes!" Andre nodded.
After reaching a cooperation intention, Zhao Sheng waved his hand and instructed the workers to transport the liquor to Andrei's warehouse, and more than 1,000 boxes of liquor were just a small business, adding up to only 36,000 yuan.
Following the big boss Lin Qi, he can see a lot of big business, hundreds of millions or even billions. Therefore, let him do this kind of small business, and he didn't feel that the pattern was still too small.
"Your boss asked you to do business with me, you cooperate with outsiders, does your boss Lin Qi know?" Liu Cuifang knew that Zhao Sheng had begun to supply to many Soviet merchants and masters, and she was very dissatisfied and came to the door to spread it.
"Fang Lin Company has nothing to do with Mr. Lin, it's me! Whether it's a shareholder or a legal person, it's me. If something happens, I'm also responsible!" Zhao Sheng said unceremoniously to Liu Cuifang, "The price of the goods you are given is lower than others, and it is already for the sake of Mr. Lin's face!"
"I also got you the batch of military supplies you asked me to ask me for. Liu Cuifang felt bored with herself, so she diverted the topic.
"What's there?" Zhao Sheng barely showed a smile on his face, the domestic military industrial system in these years was largely established on the basis of Mao Zi's help in the early years. Many prototypes of weapons and equipment can be found in Maozi cargo. Moreover, although the domestic weapon production capacity is not small, it is not only the tip that cannot be compared with Maozi. Even some weapons with similar performance may not be as durable as the wool skin.
Moreover, Maozi has a lot of weapons and equipment, and the parts are even common to domestic ones. Therefore, Zhao Sheng took the line of the domestic military and bought some woolly goods cheaply. As long as the goods are cost-effective and cheaper than domestic production, they can be used for daily training and consumption.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Maozi goods cannot be cheaper than domestic ones, but the problem is that there is no business! Liu Cuifang's husband is a Soviet petty officer, and Zhao Sheng is hinting that they should invest in Soviet active equipment and sell it as second-hand rags!
This kind of thing happened sporadically before the collapse of the USSR, but it was even more unscrupulous, at least a few years later. Now it can only be a small fight, take the line of more Soviet officers, and if the Soviet army can steal some Su-27 and other goods, it will be better.
"Of course, the weapons of destruction are gone, mainly the transport vehicles that have unloaded the weapons. Liu Cuifang said.
"Okay!" Zhao Sheng said, "In terms of price, I will refer to the market price and give a two-fold quotation." ”
"What? two folds, do you think it's clothing?" Liu Cuifang was very dissatisfied.
"Who else but me would want it?" said Zhao Sheng with a smile.
……
After leaving Zhao Sheng's company, Liu Cuifang drove to the office of Hong Lim Commodity Company and called her daughter Diana over.
"Daughter, you have to work harder to hook up with Lin Qi, that Zhao Sheng doesn't take me seriously anymore!" Liu Cuifang couldn't help but say angrily, "Even if you can't let him admit his wife, you have to admit an outer room or something!"
Diana was a little helpless to deal with it, if it was so easy, and still use her mother to mention it?
Lin Qi's gestures are all confident in his hands, and during the time that Diana has been in contact with him, he has never been worried, he has always been calm and breezy, following him, there is a strong sense of security, such a man, few women will not like it.
Although Diana is a Soviet woman, her mate selection criteria are the same as most Chinese women, not to mention that Lin Qi is still so rich, meeting him is really Diana's luckiest thing.
Moreover, even if she doesn't need her mother to mention it, she actually has a task in her body, relying on her beauty to get close to Lin Qi and gain his trust.
"Your mother came to see you here in China, and she didn't stay at home to accompany her?" Lin Qi couldn't help but feel surprised when she saw that Diana suddenly left the house arranged for her in China, and instead found a place for Lin Qi to live temporarily.
"No, my mother and I had an argument...... Diana said deliberately. In fact, at home, her mother is as strong as a queen, and she doesn't have the courage to quarrel with her mother. It's just that when he suddenly came over to see Lin Qi again, he had to have an excuse.
