Chapter 886 - Hearing the Knock
Zhang Jishun actually does not lack garlic, but if he can grab another 2,000 tons of goods in his hands, he will have more confidence when receiving international orders, and he definitely doesn't have to worry about smashing it in his hands.
In fact, he is not short of money, he has recently sent dozens of containers to the United States, Japan, and South Korea, and he has plenty of funds in his hands.
He wants to take down the core purpose of 2,000 tons of garlic, or he still wants to ask for a favor here in Mudong.
But Boss Mu saw through it directly.
The price is guaranteed, go with the market, and pay after two weeks, if the price rises, it is equivalent to selling garlic now at a high price two weeks later, which is simply pie in the sky.
Zhang Jishun is an old-school businessman, he will not be so impotent, and according to his reputation in the industry, it should not be difficult to sell 2,000 tons of garlic on credit at the current price.
Obviously, he wanted to please himself.
Mu Dong directly opened the hole card, which made Zhang Jishun a little embarrassed, and he said: "Actually, what's the matter?"
Boss Mu pouted: "Mr. Zhang, the opportunity is this time, if you don't say it now, don't ask me to say anything in the future." ”
Mr. Zhang scratched his head.
Boss Mu didn't speak, staring at Zhang Jishun with a smile, with a posture that was sure of you.
"Hehe, I actually asked you if you want to continue to pan for gold in the vegetable processing industry, and you said you don't want to. Zhang Jishun finally opened his mouth.
Mu Dong remembered that Zhang Jishun did have this statement, and at that time he thought that he was talking about hyping garlic in the future, so he directly refused, and now it seems that Mr. Zhang has other plans.
"Tell me more about it. Mu Dong said slowly.
"Brother Mu, my main business is divided into two parts, one is the export of fresh vegetables, such as the export of garlic. Another piece is the export of dehydrated vegetables, which is to slice and dry the vegetables and then process them into granules or powders. As a simple example, a typical instant noodle will have a small packet of carrots or sliced green onions in it, which is a dehydrated vegetable. Zhang Jishun introduced.
"Yes, I also know that your main export products are garlic flakes and garlic powder. Mu Dong smiled.
"Yes, yes, in addition to garlic slices and garlic powder, we also make horseradish slices and horseradish powder, and now we mainly do these two categories of products. Zhang Ji said by the way.
Mu Dong knows horseradish, and there are some farmers around Mu village who grow it. This is a cash crop imported from abroad, with leaves such as tobacco and tubers such as tree roots. The tubers have a spicy taste, and Europeans and Americans like to make them into fresh horseradish sauce.
Horseradish sauce and tomato sauce make it a famous cocktail sauce in Western cuisine, which goes well with prawns.
Originally, I thought that Zhang Jishun also produced horseradish sauce, but it turned out that he produced dehydrated horseradish products.
"Mr. Zhang, it seems that you have any new plans?" asked Mu Dong.
"Brother Mu, at present, the dehydrated products I produce, whether it is garlic products or horseradish products, use hot air drying technology, that is, use hot air to dry the moisture of raw materials in a closed space, this production process is low cost, simple to operate, and is a rough processing method. At present, there is also a freeze-dried vegetable processing method, which is also relatively mature. This technology is to quickly freeze the food, and then vacuum ice dehydration, so that the product produced can completely maintain the shape and color and taste of the raw materials, and will not rot after several years of storage, and the added value is very high, more than 5 times that of hot drying products. At the same time, it can process a wide range of vegetables, edible mushrooms, meat, fruits and other products. My idea is, to launch the freeze-dried vegetable production line, I want to cooperate with you. ”
"How much do you need to invest?" asked Mu Danian.
Zhang Jishun was a little stunned, and said in his heart, did you agree? He quickly cheered up and said seriously: "The total investment is about 300 million, I want to build a new factory, and I can raise half of the funds myself." ”
Boss Mu spread his hands and said with a smile: "Isn't this the case? I don't care about this matter, Dadong Group has a professional investment company, and I will let them talk to you." ”
Zhang Jishun's mood is like riding a roller coaster, up and down, are you agreeing? Or are you refusing tactfully?
However, since Boss Mu has spoken, he can only wait to contact the investment company. Zhang Jishun turned to the purchase of garlic.
Today's price has risen a little compared with yesterday, with first-grade garlic reaching 7.2 yuan per catty and second-grade garlic reaching 5.7 yuan per catty.
In the end, the two agreed that Zhang Jishun would purchase 1,000 tons of first-class garlic and second-grade garlic at a price of 7.7 yuan per catty of first-class garlic and 6.2 yuan per catty of second-grade garlic, with a total payment of 27.8 million yuan, and the payment would be paid within five days.
The reason why there is an increase of 0.5 yuan per catty is because it is not cash, and the extra money is regarded as a support for the rise of the market.
2,000 tons, 0.5 yuan per catty, an extra 2 million. The 2 million was a small favor sent by Zhang Jishun, and Mu Dong accepted it happily, which made Mr. Zhang feel a lot more down-to-earth and full of hope for possible cooperation.
The two parties also agreed that, as with the original purchase of garlic, the funds from the sale of garlic by the Mu family would still go from Shengtong's accounts, and the taxes that needed to be paid would be deducted by Shengtong. Moreover, the news of the sale of garlic was also spread by Shengtong Company, and the Mu family was only responsible for managing the warehouse, recording the shipments, and reconciling with Mr. Zhang in the future.
Soon Zhang Jishun spread the news that he was going to sell garlic in the circle, and a large group of merchants flocked to him. In the afternoon of the same day, in the cold storage rented by the Mu family, there was a long queue of vehicles to pick up the goods.
The Mu family has collected and stored a total of 5,500 tons of first-class garlic and 11,000 tons of second-grade garlic.
The Mu family leased two cold storages, which could fight on two fronts, with Mu Dong coordinating in the middle, Wang Dajiang managing one of the cold storages, assisted by Mu Dad and Mu Hong, and the other cold storage being handed over to Guo Tiande, assisted by Mu Second Uncle and Mu Third Uncle.
At the same time, the news of the Mu family's recruitment of stevedores spread in Wuli Sanxiang, and the salary of 200 yuan per day immediately made many able-bodied people hear the news, and soon more than 300 people gathered. The men were assigned to two cold stores and immediately got to work.
In one afternoon, with the joint efforts of everyone, 500 tons of first-class garlic and 700 tons of second-class garlic were shipped.
The next day, the price of garlic did not change, the sales trend slowed down, and 400 tons of first-grade garlic and 900 tons of second-grade garlic were shipped throughout the day, and the work of stevedores became very easy. There are more people and less work, and the loading is very fast, so you can stop and rest often.
On the third day, the second-grade garlic rose by a dime, the first-class garlic did not move, and 800 tons of first-class garlic and 2,100 tons of second-class garlic were shipped on the same day.
On the fourth and fifth days, the price continued to rise, but the magnitude was not large, basically around 5 cents, and the shipment volume stabilized at about 3,000 tons per day.
On the sixth day, Zhang Jishun called, saying that the funds had been in place, and had been remitted to the Mu family's capital ledger, and they could be settled together in the later stage, as for the 2,000 tons of garlic, they would not be picked up for the time being, and they would be stored directly in Sun Mingfu's cold storage. In addition, the Mu family shipped 2,200 tons.
On the seventh day, in just one morning, the last 900 tons of garlic were all sold out.
The garlic sales work is finally over.
The price did not change much, even on the last day, the first-grade garlic increased by 0.2 yuan from the first day, reaching 7.4 yuan, and the second-grade garlic rose by 0.3 yuan to 6 yuan. From this point of view, the bottom price of 0.5 yuan given by Zhang Jishun is a real favor.
In the afternoon of the same day. Zhang Jishun found Mu Dong, and the two checked the accounts together. After some discussion, the tax part was reasonably withheld, and Zhang Jishun allocated a huge amount of money to Mu Hong's account.
It's a huge sum of money indeed. The Mu family team invested 50 million yuan in the garlic investment business this time, and under the favorable price of garlic, after deducting various expenses and taxes, it still gained 198 million yuan. It is equivalent to every 1 yuan invested, and 3.96 yuan is gained.
Although this rate of return cannot be compared with the garlic and yellow sand business operated by Mu Dong before, but now the base is large, and each family has an investment of one or two million, so in terms of income amount, it is simply too brutal.
Just when Mu Dong and Zhang Jishun were reconciling, the helicopter parked outside Mu Village finally started, and with some brave people who had the courage to try, it flew two round trips between Mu Village and the county seat.
The previously applied route has long since expired, and this was just applied for the day before yesterday.
The people who had the courage to eat crabs included: Mu Dad Mu Ma, Mu San Uncle, Mu Hong and Wang Shaoqiang, these five people flew the first round trip.
There are also Mu Jinqian, Mu Huafeng and Mu Tongqing, plus Gao Min and Li Xiaohuan of Dadong Trading, these five people flew the second round trip.
Those who are eligible to board the plane but eventually give up because of fear include Second Uncle Mu, Third Aunt Mu, Second Aunt Mu and Second Brother-in-law.
Among the 10 warriors, there was someone who had a foreign appearance, that was Mu Jinqian, he vomited so much that he couldn't hold on when he arrived at the county seat, so the second round trip, only four people came back.
Later, Mu Jinqian attributed this to psychological factors, saying that he was a little afraid of the helicopter because he almost caused a stampede and left a psychological shadow.
This made Mu Huafeng and Mu Tongqing scoff.
That night, in the Mu family villa in Mu Village, everyone in the Mu family sat around and held a grand and grand event to share the money!
Yes, divide the money, divide the big money!
Mu's father got 11.88 million yuan, including his own 3.96 million and Mu Xiaoxia's 7.92 million;
Second Uncle Mu's family invested 1.5 million, and this time they got 5.94 million;
The three families of Uncle Mu, Aunt Mu and Aunt Mu all invested 2 million, and each family received 7.92 million yuan.
Mu Hong opened a bank card, one for each family.
As for the rest of the money, it was all Mu Dong's, he gave the most, investing 39.5 million yuan, and of course he got the most.
However, there is 19.8 million yuan in it, which is the income of Cheng Qiang and his wife, who invested 5 million yuan.
After the money was divided, before drinking, Mu Dong said solemnly: "Elders, this garlic investment is over, I reiterate once again that there will be no similar investment activities in the future, in fact, this time everyone has also seen that the rate of return is much worse than before, and even we were on the verge of losing money for a while, which is very dangerous." After this investment, the economic strength of each family has become very strong, and there will be no worries, plus the income of the county seat Dadong Hotel, which is enough to ensure everyone's life in old age, as long as everyone is happy, I am content. ”
Everyone heard a different taste.
Mu Dad, Mu Ma and Mu Hong, are proud and relieved.
Second Uncle Mu and Second Aunt Mu heard thoughtfulness and concern.
Third Uncle Mu shrunk his neck, he felt that this kid Mu Dong was beating himself. I'm still in the prime of life, am I about to start enjoying my old age?
