Chapter 327: It's time to get down to business
If you have to calculate the actual price of goods, I am afraid that it is not even one-twentieth, that is to say, after the light industrial products and textiles of less than a few thousand yuan are transported to Tongjiang, as long as they cross the river, they will bring back dozens of times more profits, and if there are enough goods, the round-trip freight can be ignored. [This profit is not only Xiao Wu, they look at the air conditioner, even Hong Tao, who has always prided himself as well-informed, has a little palpitations, it is too profitable! ]
In fact, these timbers are not huge profits, if the sunspots can get back the steel and construction machinery, the profit will not be twenty times, I am afraid that it will be fifty times or even more than a hundred times, and it does not need to be a good steel, just replace the scrap steel. In this era, China's demand for steel is simply endless, and it is not in this state for a few years, but for more than ten years. Compared with wood, steel, gasoline, diesel, and fertilizer are the main theme of this era, and they are also the most sought-after and best sold.
It's a pity that at this time, the oil and gas fields in the Far East of the Soviet Union have not been exploited, so Hong Tao has no place to change the oil, but steel and fertilizer can be used, and the sunspots are also looking for reliable Soviet middlemen over there to contact this business.
But the problem came again, fooling his parents to promise him to go far away, Hong Tao held the handle in his hand, it must be no problem, it's a big deal to move the little uncle's shield out again, if he is not good. There are also two more reliable quality shields for the eldest aunt and the second master, just find an excuse and you can travel. But the traffic problem is too troublesome this year. From the capital, to Tongjiang, you have to take the train first, and the bumps and bumps for more than two days, and then change to a long-distance bus, and you have to bump for more than half a day before you get to the place.
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. This is a wise saying, Hong Tao, who is used to flying, high-speed rail, and fast trains, is difficult to endure the suffering of that kind of green train. He had done that thing a few times in his previous life, especially when he went to Xinjiang to string relatives, and he almost didn't die on the train, even if it was a sleeper. I can't stand that bang...... Bang Dang...... It's a multi-day journey.
You're going to say drive. It's not easy, in China in this era, there is not even a high road, and you have to take the national highway for long distances, and the road conditions are even more flattering. The most terrible thing is that there is no car rescue, running such a long way, it is difficult to ensure that the car does not have some problems, and the long-distance driver at this time is half a mechanic. As long as it's not a major repair, you can do it yourself. But Hong Tao didn't have this ability. The year he drove, there was something wrong to find an auto repair shop, halfway to the nest to call car rescue, although he also followed others to open the car for a few days, played a few days of modification, but still the same sentence, he learned everything is fur, without study, the result is the same as not learning.
"Am I going to go by by train, or am I going to rush through by the train? This is a philosophical question, and I have to ponder it carefully, and I can't go alone, I have to find someone to back my back!" Hong Tao, who was already so idle that he was covered with long hair, sat alone in the office, and began to prepare to bub out of the bad water again, to see who else could be harmed this time, was it Xiao Uncle? Or Xiao Wu? Or Da Jiang? Or Huang Mao or Gao Jianhui? Anyway, he didn't plan to take girls with him when he went there, he had to bring someone who could help him work, otherwise he would become the most miserable one.
"Toot toot toot...... ......"Just when Hong Tao was concentrating on how to harm people, the electric crickets in his pocket began to cry again.
"Ralph, it's useless for you to call me, I'm almost out of all this wine, unless you can find me an international supermodel, I won't go to your house...... Well, who is this?" Hong Tao thought it was Ralph hooking up with him to fool around, in order to save money for a few bottles of wine, this Ralph did everything, but the number on the pager was very unfamiliar, as if it wasn't him.
"Hey, who called me?" Hong Tao picked up the phone and replied.
"Boss Hong...... I just arrived in the capital, right here for my father, and I have something to discuss with you, but the second master said that you are not there, are you free now?" came Boss Wan's authentic Hong Kong Mandarin on the phone.
"What about the second master?" Hong Tao heard Boss Wan's slightly anxious tone, and his first thought was the second master.
"Yes, it's inconvenient on the phone, let's meet and talk. Boss Wan gave a definite answer.
"Oh, no problem, you're just waiting for me at home, I'll go over and pick you up right away!" Hong Tao stood up and shouted at the phone, regardless of whether Boss Wan agreed or not, grabbed the car keys and ran out, other things can be joked, but this matter still has to be taken seriously.
In fact, Hong Taobai ran away, Boss Wan had his own car and driver, but when he arrived at the place, he had to drive the car to lead the way, and then bring Boss Wan's car back. For this reason, Boss Wan also complained about him vigorously, why didn't he listen to his words, and hung up the phone!
"Wow! You have a good place, this door is so beautiful! This is also ancient?" Boss Wan is the first time to come to Hong Tao's toy shop, as soon as he enters the house, he is very interested in Hong Tao's combination of Chinese and Western layout, compared with the second master, it seems more comfortable, not only with antique furniture, but also with a bar and billiard table, more entertaining.
"Come, let's talk inside. Hong Tao didn't have time to discuss the history of this moon gate with Boss Wan, he wanted to know about the second master first, so he arranged Boss Wan's driver in the outer room, and took Boss Wan into the office himself.
"Wow! Cuban goods! You are good at this? Hehehe, the second master doesn't know, right? You're still young, so you still smoke less, but you really enjoy it, I look at it and I'm greedy. Boss Wan sat on the couch, holding Hong Tao's cigar in one hand and Hong Tao's red wine in the other.
"I said Lao Wan, you have become a heart, when you leave in a while, I will give you a box, go home and smoke it, it's done. Hong Tao saw that Boss Wan had worked hard to come back to deliver a message to him, so he suppressed his anxious mood and lit one himself.
"Hehehe, if you don't say that good people have good rewards, your business is getting bigger and bigger, then the second master must be blessed with you, and he is so blessed for the old man." But this time I brought you this news, it is not necessarily good news for the second master, how to say it, there are good and bad, do you want to hear that first?"
"I'll count three times, if you don't say it again, I'll take away all the cigarettes and alcohol!" Boss Wan succeeded, and he wore out Hong Tao's patience.
"Okay, okay, I'll say it, I'll say it!" Boss Wan didn't tease when he saw Hong Tao standing up, he couldn't help but pout Hong Tao with his old bones.
"I ran a lot this time, and I went over a trip, and finally didn't run in vain, I found the second master's family! Hey, hey, this is their current address and contact information, they are no longer over there, they have immigrated to New Zealand more than ten years ago, and the address and phone number are not sure that they can still find someone, I didn't try, I want to come back and talk to you first, what do you think?" Boss Wan is actually not a verbose person, he was deliberately teasing Hong Tao just now.
"Auckland! Nima is really good at finding a good place, so I don't know if I come back to see who else is in his house?" Hong Tao took the note handed over by Boss Wan and looked at it, he only knew the name of a city, and he didn't know how to pronounce the street behind it, and then there was a phone number.
"I don't know about this, I only found a former colleague of his brother, the same as you said, his brother went to civil aviation after retiring, and only immigrated with his family after retirement, you might as well call this phone and ask. Boss Wan pointed to the note in Hong Tao's hand.
"I can't make an international call here, but I have a way, so let's go call now, you can rest here for a while, and I'll come back as much as I can." Hong Tao felt that Boss Wan was right, he had direct contact information, and he was still asking around here, isn't it stupid.
Hong Tao's way of making international calls is very simple, he doesn't need to go to the long-distance building to apply, and he doesn't have to trouble Ms. Jiang, he goes directly to the Argentine embassy where Ralph works, and uses the phone in their embassy to make international calls, without censorship or fear of any trouble. Ralph has no objection to Hong Tao's request, whether it is Argentina, China, or Wanwan, there are no political disputes, and he has no psychological pressure at all to help this little favor.
"Hi, hello, is it Mr. Xiangwen's house?" When Ralph dialed the phone, Hong Tao took it and asked directly in Chinese.
"Grandpa! Looking for you!Who are you?Can you tell me my name?" It turned out to be a little boy's voice on the other side of the phone, and the Chinese was not bad.
"Uh...... My name is Na Xiangwu, just tell your grandfather like this......" Hong Tao asked the little boy for a while and didn't know how to answer, so he just came directly!
"Er, is that you!" After a while, a man's voice suddenly appeared on the microphone, very hurried and a little trembling.
"I'm sorry, that grandpa, I'm not that Xiangwu, I'm very familiar with him, I should have asked him to call you directly, but I don't know if this call is real, so I will call first, now I can rest assured, the second master has finally found you, I ...... I don't know what to say either...... Why don't I go to him and talk to you first, I called you from the Argentine embassy, I'm afraid you'll have to wait an hour or so, I'll go and get back quickly. Hong Tao was also a little excited, but he didn't expect to find it at once, and now he really didn't know how to talk to the uncle on the other side of the phone. (To be continued......)
