Chapter 4 [The First Pot of Gold]
The content of that news is very simple, just one line: the implementation plan of the "dual-track price system" in the Nandu steel market is in place.
The reason why Chen Tianlang paid attention to this is very simple, this so-called "dual-track price system" has a lot of origins.
In the process of changing the country's economy from a planned economy to a market economy, this "dual-track price system" has played a very important role. To put it bluntly, the state will set a unified price for some goods, and the other part will be handed over to the enterprise, so that the enterprise can set the price according to market demand, so that the same thing will have different prices.
According to Chen Tianlang's knowledge, in the late 80s and early 90s, during the period of the dual-track price system, many cattle people made their fortunes by reselling steel, such as the cattle man in Huaxi Village, who was someone from the National Development and Reform Commission, who could get a lot of steel approvals through relationships, and sell these steels at a high price as soon as they changed hands.
It's a pity that Chen Tianlang doesn't have this kind of connections and relationships, his family is poor and white, and his relatives near and far don't even have an official, and it is a fool's dream to want to be an "official".
So he could only drink beer greedily, thinking, obviously the opportunity was in front of him, but unfortunately he didn't have the ability to seize it.
Chen Tianlang drank up a large cup of beer in one go, and Guo Fatzi and Wang Shishi were stunned for a moment, and they didn't understand why Boss Chen had such a big reaction after reading the newspaper, could it be that there were condiments for wine on it.
……
A large glass of beer is in my stomach, and the dishes come up one by one.
Looking at the fragrant food, Chen Tianlang also let go of his arms, his appetite was great, and he picked up his chopsticks and ate and drank.
During this period, the fat man and the stone were even more complaining, holding cigarettes in their hands, smoking a cigarette, drinking a sip of wine, and from time to time playing with clinking glasses, shouting: "Come on, fuck it!" imitated those Jianghu characters on TV, deliberately spilling the beer in the wine glass.
The behavior of the two guys caused a group of diners in the restaurant to frown. One of them, a thin man with a foreign accent, couldn't help but say: "Today's children are too unpleasant, smoking and drinking." ”
"yes, we weren't that wild back then. His companion, a man in a cap, said. "Even if you smoke, you have to carry an adult on your back, how can there be such a blatant one. ”
"Keep your voice down, don't let them hear you. ”
"What if you hear it? Hairy boy, dare to go against the sky?"
The voice behind was louder, and Chen Tianlang and they could hear it clearly.
"Grandma's, these two outsiders want to rebel, and they don't look at where this is!" Relying on the smell of alcohol, Guo Fatzi slapped his beer glass on the table heavily. Although he is a student, he is the kind of student who does not study well, with the tall tyrannosaurus rex-level size, he usually fights and fights, steals chickens and dogs, and where will he be scared of two outsiders.
Seeing that the fat man was going to cause trouble, Wang Shishi was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, he had fought with many students when he was so big, but he had never fought with adults, his hormones were bursting, and he blushed and said: "The three of us, three against two, if you can't beat it, you can run!"
"Run your head!" Chen Tianlang gave him a burst of brain, "Our money is still pressed on the counter." ”
"Yes, yes, there is still money, why don't you settle the account first and then pay?"
Chen Tianlang was speechless, regretting letting them drink so much wine.
Seeing the three hairy boys staring at each other, but they didn't dare to come over, the two outsiders breathed a sigh of relief, to be honest, Guo Fatzi's fat body and face full of flesh can really scare people.
"Ahem, then again, this time we came to Nandu to pull two truckloads of steel bars back, but I didn't expect the price to suddenly rise so high, and the people who paid on credit refused to do so, what can I do?" the thin man hurriedly changed the topic.
"I have no choice but to go back first, or buy less, and I can't run in vain. The cap man said.
"Look again, maybe you can buy some cheap, old ones can be done, anyway, to build a pig farm......"
The thin man and the cap sighed and talked with each other, drinking two pieces of five bottles of cheap "Red Star Erguotou", full of chagrin.
It turned out that one of the two was named Fan Aiguo and the other was Deng Jianjun, both from nearby TH County. Nowadays, the spring breeze of reform and opening up has blown from the south to the Central Plains, and all kinds of industries are blooming.
Fan Aiguo and Deng Jianjun are no exception, they want to make a fortune and make money, seeing that the breeding industry is popular, especially the price of pork remains high, from the original eight cents a pound to the current one, so they plan to partner to open a large-scale pig farm. Now that the site has been found, it is time to build a pig house. But to build a pig house, you need a lot of steel bars to pour cement, otherwise some brick walls are not very solid, so the two of them rushed from the county to Nandu to purchase some steel bars, but they didn't expect the steel bars to suddenly rise in price, and the money they brought was not enough, so they were very headaches.
Just when Fan Aiguo and Deng Jianjun were sighing and drinking stuffy wine, they suddenly saw a boy at the table coming over.
"What's the matter, you want to fight?" the two were startled, and Deng Jianjun clenched the wine bottle even more excitedly.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Tianlang had already arrived in front of them, looking at them with a strange look.
Behind him, Guo Fatzi and Wang Shishi didn't care about wiping their mouths, picked up the chair and ran over, complaining in their hearts, and the boss didn't scream when he wanted to make a move.
Standing in front of the dinner table, Chen Tianlang looked at Fan Aiguo and Deng Jianjun with a nervous face, and then said, "The two eldest brothers want to buy steel bars?"
Wacky teenagers, quirky questions.
guessed that his conversation might have been heard by the other party, so Fan Aiguo nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
"How much do you want to buy?" Chen Tianlang said in a determined tone.
"Three or four tons. ”
"Is it three tons or four tons?"
Fan Aiguo glanced at Deng Jianjun and was very dissatisfied with Chen Tianlang's tone of interrogation.
"Three tons. Deng Jianjun answered for him.
"Old and new?"
"Hmm. ”
"How much money do you come up with?"
Fan Aiguo and Deng Jianjun, you look at me, I look at you, "What's the matter, do you have the goods?" Looking at the young man in front of them, they couldn't figure out that he would have three tons of steel bars in his hand.
Chen Tianlang smiled, revealing his white teeth, "I said yes, do you believe it?"
Nonsense, of course I don't believe it.
Not to mention that Fan Aiguo and Deng Jianjun didn't believe it, even Guo Fatzi and Wang Shishi, who were following Chen Tianlang and thought they were going to fight, didn't believe it.
They have been friends with Chen Tianlang for so long, and they don't even have a hair at home, let alone three tons of steel bars, even if they don't have a burning stick made of steel bars.
"Don't be kidding, you student, we don't have time to play with you. ”
"I'm not kidding, as long as your price is fair, I'll take you to see it, and if you like it, you can buy it, and if you don't like it, you will break it up. Chen Tianlang's words are sophisticated, like a sixteen-year-old child.
Fan Aiguo hesitated and glanced at Deng Jianjun.
Deng Jianjun said: "We can't give you a high price, at most two thousand per ton." Three tons is six thousand. "In fact, this time they came out to buy steel bars and carried so much money, but I didn't expect to go to the steel market for a while, and the steel bars over there have risen in price to 2,003 per ton, a difference of 900 yuan, so I drank here to drink.
Chen Tianlang nodded, "I'll think about this price first." Otherwise, you can leave me the phone number and contact you when I think it through. ”
"We stayed in the guest house where there was a pay phone. Deng Jianjun went to the counter to borrow a pencil, wrote down the phone number of the guest house, and handed it to Chen Tianlang.
Chen Tianlang took the phone number and said, "Thank you!" and then returned to his seat with Guo Fatzi and Wang Shishi.
Looking at Chen Tianlang's serious appearance not far away, Fan Aiguo and Deng Jianjun were still a little confused, and they didn't believe that what Chen Tianlang said was true.
"Maybe the teenager was joking. "They want to.
Guo Fatzi and Wang Shishi also looked confused.
"Tianlang, when did you lift up the steel bar?"
"yes, that's three tons of steel bar, where can I find it?"
Seeing the question on his friend's face, Chen Tianlang just smiled and said, "I don't have it, but the cotton mill has it." ”
When Guo Fatzi and Wang Shishi heard him say this, they suddenly seemed to remember something, and slapped their heads: "Oh, it turns out that you want to ......"
"Shhh
