Chapter 99: The First Medicinal Herb Business

According to Ye Chao's explanation, after Ye Rong understood, he probably understood Ye Chao's so-called method of self-confidence to make a little money.

First of all, because it is a mechanical harvest of medicinal materials, each household can harvest at least six or seven acres of Bupleurum medicinal materials a day, what is the concept of six or seven acres? Bupleurum Miaozhu is pulled home by a farm tricycle, at least about 10 carts.

Each car is three or four hundred catties, and 10 cars are three or four thousand catties......

The net yield per mu of Bupleurum in one year is only about 100 catties of dried Bupleurum chinensis. Six or seven acres of land are only six or seven hundred catties.

Other words......

If the first sales method is adopted, the branches and leaves are cut off and dried for sale, it is necessary to take out the six or seven hundred catties of dried firewood from three or four thousand catties one by one!

How troublesome? If you don't hire a short-term job, the whole family can be busy for at least a month!

What's more, there is no time to delay at all, because when Bupleurum is harvested, the branches and leaves of the seedlings will quickly wither and dry up...... Once dry, if the branches and leaves are pruned, the dried medicinal roots will inevitably be collided, pulled, shed, and torn......

The yield per mu is only 100 catties!

Recently, the market of Bupleurum has risen, and it is more than a dozen quick money a catty!

If you waste a little bit of it, at least a few hundred dollars will be gone......

Therefore, mechanical harvesting, rural people harvest six or seven acres of firewood at once, their own family can not cut it at all, and at this time it is busy farming, other people's families also harvest medicinal materials, no one does short-term work.

In the end, the only option is to sell directly!

At this time last year, there was no weighbridge in the village, so everyone chose the third way of sales, piling up the harvested firewood into a large pile, and then directly estimating the price with their eyes and selling it to the buyer of medicinal materials.

Among them...... The profit risk is greater.

And this ...... It is also the skill that Ye Chao told Ye Rong about making a little money.

For example, last year, a pound of dry firewood was 20 yuan, and a yield of 100 catties per mu was 2,000 yuan. Farmers make simple calculations based on their own acres. 5 acres of land is worth 10,000!

Acquirers also make extrapolations based on such data......

So even if you estimate the price, there is still a certain amount of skill.

The peasants refused to suffer.

Buyers are also reluctant to lose money.

However, the costs of cutting branches and leaves, hiring short-term workers, and so on, both parties must compromise before the transaction can be successful.

Farmers sell less than 2,000 ...... of 1 acre of land

Acquirers were acquired in less than 2000. Then find someone to cut off the branches and leaves, dry them and sell them, remove the various costs, and earn the difference......

This is Ye Chao's method of making a little money.

If Ye Rong and Ye Chao started their first business like this, the two of them. It can't be regarded as a buyer of medicinal materials at all, it can only be regarded as a speculative middleman!

Middlemen are middlemen......

Ye Rong stood up and said, "Ye Chao, let's go, let's go and take a look at the harvest of firewood in our village." ”

"Okay."

Ye Chao also stood up and said as he walked, "I heard that today Li Daqing harvested the medicinal materials of the carpenter Lao Liu's family. ”

Speaking of which, Ye Chao's eyes are even brighter!

Ye Rong saw it in his eyes and asked, "What's wrong with the carpenter Lao Liu's medicinal materials?" ”

"Their medicinal herbs should have money to be earned." Ye Chao seemed to be more confident.

"Why?" Ye Rong asked.

Ye Chao replied simply, "His family's seven acres of firewood have grown in the ground for a year and a half. Bupleurum can be harvested in one year. More than two years later, there will be a reduction in mortality and production. But a year and a half, it should be just right, the yield per mu will increase, and the root medicinal herbs will grow larger. ”

"Why did his family grow for a year and a half?" Ye Rong asked again.

"Last year, it was sown in spring and harvested in autumn and winter, which was less than a year, and the rhizomes were short for half a year. On this ground, the purchaser of medicinal materials at that time gave him 7,000 acres of land for seven acres to buy. But the market was good at the time. There is no problem with a yield of 2,000 yuan per mu, but 1,000 yuan is definitely not willing to sell. Therefore, it was delayed, and the price of Bupleurum dropped sharply this spring, and the average price of buyers was even less than 1,000 yuan per mu. The carpenter Lao Liu was even more reluctant to sell it...... So it's been until now, a year and a half. ”

After Ye Chao finished explaining, he shook his head, "As far as the current Bupleurum market is concerned, it is probably because the harvest season has arrived, and the major medicinal herb merchants have begun to rush to buy and stock up. There are foreign customers coming, so the price of Bupleurum has rebounded, and it has risen to about 16 yuan per catty. But it is still not as good as last year, the carpenter Lao Liu's one-and-a-half-year chaihu is still about 1,000 yuan per mu...... It's equivalent to growing a year in vain. ”

"Hmm."

Ye Rong probably understood, "Let's go to the carpenter Lao Liu's field and have a look." ”

"Okay."

The two came to Beigou Longshang and happened to see Li Daqing driving a 70 car and harvesting machinery.

The special herb harvesting machine, the front is like a big shovel, shoveling into the ground, and then sifting, when passing through the screen, the soil will be screened out, leaving the herb seedlings to finally slide off the screen and form a layer on the ground behind the machine.

It was followed by a group of villagers, at least a dozen people.

There were three or four people in front of them who used rakes to hold the medicinal herbs into a pile, and then a few others picked up the tricycle with forks.

Finally, after the fork is picked, the left medicinal herbs are specially picked up by hand.

In this way, more than a dozen people came in order, and the green medicinal herb land before turned into bare loess in an instant.

"It's amazing!"

Ye Rong admired that in the era before the crossing, this large area of seven acres of medicinal materials was dug with a pickaxe, and it would take a few months to dig it out, so it would be over in half a day with a machine.

Ye Rong praised the machine, and Ye Chao next to him thought that Ye Rong was admiring the medicinal materials......

Ye Chao randomly plucked a few Bupleurum seedlings, checked the growth of the roots, and nodded in admiration: "Ye Rong, you are not wrong. The growth of a year and a half is really powerful, and it seems that it can increase production a lot. ”

Lao Liu, Li Daqing, carpenters who were working in the cultivated land, and other villagers found Ye Rong and Ye Chao coming, and they also said hello, "What are you two doing here?" ”

Ye Chao is a person, he is self-aware. He thinks that his reputation in the village is not very good, he is gossiped by the villagers, he is lazy in bed, he does not listen to his parents, he is a bad boy, and few people believe him.

Therefore, Ye Chao knew that if he said that he was here to buy medicinal materials, the villagers and carpenter Lao Liu would not believe it.

He took a step back, didn't speak, and let Ye Rong speak as the leader.

Ye Rong was also not polite, and said with a smile: "Lao Liu, how do you plan to sell this chai hu when you take it home?" ”

"How else can I sell it?"

Carpenter Lao Liu is notoriously lazy, but he doesn't admit it himself, but often talks about "contentment and happiness", and the same is true now, "It's too troublesome to cut the roots one by one, it's not worth doing that." I'm in contact with the herb buyer, and when the time comes, I'll get a direct appraisal and sell it! ”

This is good!

Ye Rong and Ye Chao are planning to do so.

Ye Rong smiled and asked, "How much are you going to sell?" ”

"7 acres of land. Last year, it sold for 7,000, and it took another year, at least not more than 10,000? Carpenter Lao Liu looked forward to it wishfully.

"Pull it down!"

Ye Rong and Ye Chao hadn't spoken yet, and the rest of the villagers began to despise it, "Although the market is rising now, it is only 16 yuan per catty, and an acre of land is at most 1,600, and your 7 acres of land, cut and dried by yourself, are only worth more than 11,000." You sell seedlings, can you sell more than 10,000? ”

"It's a dream!"

“……”

Carpenter Lao Liu was not convinced, "Mine has grown for a year and a half!" Large yield! If you don't sell it for 10,000, it's a loss! Last year, one acre was 2,000, and it is said that last year, my 7 acres of land could be sold for 10,000 yuan, and this year it was sold for 10,000 yuan, which is a loss of a year. ”

"Lao Liu."

Ye Rong also interjected at this time, "Then have you contacted the buyer?" ”

"I've got in touch, I'll be here in a moment." Carpenter Lao Liu replied.

Ye Rong and Ye Chao were shocked at the same time, it seemed that they had met a competitor......

Ye Chao tugged Ye Rong's arm and said in a low voice: "The first strike is the strongest, should we immediately indicate our intention to acquire?" Let the carpenter Lao Liu sell us the medicinal herbs, not to the buyer? ”

“……”

After Ye Rong pondered, he shook his head at Ye Chao, "Let's wait and see what happens." If the two parties rush to buy, the price is easy to rise. ”

Ye Chao nodded, and seemed to understand, first conceal the intention to acquire, no one will compete, the carpenter Lao Liu will not raise the price indiscriminately, and the buyer will probably have to push down the price frantically when no one competes.

This will basically lead to only one result...... That's when the talks between them fell apart.

Why?

Carpenter Lao Liu's chaihu, a year and a half of growth, the root system is really good, he is more confident, his tone is harder, and he wants to sell it for 10,000 yuan!

And the current market, the buyer will never dare to buy at such a high price, the yield per mu is 1600, and the buyer has to pay the cost of cutting, transportation, and various costs, and it is good to bid 1200, and 7 acres of land is only 8400.

The psychological price gap between these two people is too big, and it will definitely collapse!

……

Half a day later.

The carpenter Lao Liu's firewood was harvested, and the agricultural tricycle pulled a total of 15 carts!

On the side of the wide road in Xinjian Lane, a long green queue of nearly 30 meters is placed, which looks particularly spectacular.

The villagers passing by exclaimed, "Lao Liu, your 7 acres of land have gained a lot!" Other people's seven acres of land are about 10 cars, at most 12 or 13 cars, and you can pull 15 cars! ”

"A year and a half of production, it is indeed higher!" The villagers were amazed.

"Haha."

Hearing such an exclamation, the carpenter Lao Liu was overjoyed and swore an oath, "If it is not sold for 10,000 yuan, I will never make a move!" ”

"Your root system for a year and a half feels quite big...... Maybe it can really be sold for 10,000. ”

"The more you sell, the better!"

Some villagers also hope so, because the carpenter Lao Liu is the first in the village to sell Bupleurum, the higher the price, the higher the price of Bupleurum has really risen, which can be used as a standard and template, and then used as a reference and reference when his own family also sells Bupleurum.

It didn't take long.

The purchaser of medicinal herbs contacted by carpenter Lao Liu drove a five-wheeled transport vehicle to Sangzhuang.

The buyer looked at the pile of medicinal materials that were in a long line, as well as the growth of the roots, and his eyes were also bright, and he felt that this medicinal material was good, and the acquisition intention in his heart was greatly strengthened.

Then, it's time to talk about the price.
