Chapter 748: Cheap or not?
The car soon arrived at Wanshui Township, or the previous cold storage, there were still more than a dozen people sitting on the stool in front of the door, but this time it was obviously a lot more leisurely, and everyone was playing playing cards together.
A piece of cardboard was erected next to the game, and a line of words was written on the board: "Garlic is available in stock, two pieces of eight per catty!" ”
On the side of the road in front of the cold storage, there were three or four cars with license plates from other provinces, and five or six people stood by the car and smoked together, with an angry and helpless expression on their faces.
After the car was parked, Zeng Yi pushed the door and got out of the car, came to the five or six people, and said, "A few bosses are here to collect garlic, right?" ”
The five or six people threw away the cigarettes in their hands when they heard this, looked at Zeng Yi together, and said, "Big brother has garlic to shoot?" What's the price? ”
"I'm also here to harvest garlic and want to inquire about the market." Zeng Yi spoke, took out a cigarette from his pocket and shared it with those people, "Looking at the appearance of a few big brothers, it seems that this acquisition is not going well?" ”
"It's not just that it's not going well!" Someone took Zeng Yi's cigarette and said: "Look at the brand over there, two yuan eighty-one catty, the price has risen too outrageously, I heard that the day before yesterday it was still one piece of eight!" ”
"Yesterday it was two or three!" A tall thin man next to him added, "I heard that it will rise tomorrow, at least three yuan!" ”
"Still rising? It's just two or eight, and this business is already impossible! The man before sighed, counted the account with his fingers, and said: "Two yuan eight is the purchase price, I have to hire someone to hire a car to pull the garlic back, plus the expenses on the road, and the storage costs after returning home, even if you don't make money, the cost is three yuan five!" I do wholesale with us, and if the offer price is four dollars, then the retail price is not known. ”
"The key seven has risen so much! I came this time, I originally wanted to take away two big cars, but now at this price, I am afraid that the funds I bring are enough to make up a car, and I can't run back half a car, then the cost will be higher! Alas, this business is too much to do! The tall and thin man also sighed.
There was an old man next to him, who seemed to have been in the garlic business for many years, and said: "Complaining is Lao Sao, this garlic still has to be collected, what kind of business can we do if we don't collect garlic?" Don't be too pessimistic, as long as people still have to eat, this garlic is not afraid of no market, no matter the price is high, that is, the price is high to the sky, then the last person to pay is the person who eats garlic, we will set aside our own share of the difference. ”
"Yes, yes, let's hurry up and find a way to raise money, why don't you send a whole car back, otherwise you will come back to run again in the future, then it will be more ordinary, forget it." Someone echoed the old garlic merchant's claim.
A few people sighed together, saying so, but these wholesalers rely on the volume to make money, the high purchase price here means that their volume must be reduced, and the amount is not enough, and want Werther's income in previous years, then the offer must be higher, so calculated, I am afraid that the offer to five yuan, may not be able to guarantee that they have last year's income.
"This business is getting harder and harder!" The old garlic merchant was also full of emotion, then looked at Zeng Yi and said, "Little brother is white and pure, it's the first time to do this business, right?" ”
Zeng Yi smiled and nodded, the old garlic businessman's vision is still very powerful, these garlic merchants deal with garlic farmers all day long, they are all dark-skinned, but they are not like it when they are mixed in it, Zeng Yi said: "Yes, this is the first time I have done this business." ”
"Then little brother, you have to be cautious! The current price is very risky, how many cars are you going to take this time? The old garlic merchant lit Zeng Yi's cigarette and took a puff, and kindly reminded him.
"Thank you seniors for the reminder, I look at the situation, there are seven or eight more cars, and one car is missing!" Zeng Yi thanked the other party, generally speaking, peers are enemies, especially these small businessmen, who are very cunning, and the old garlic farmer is so sincere, but he must be thanked.
The old garlic merchant waved his hand and said, "What's polite, I didn't help you much, it's just that this line of work has been crawling too much, just give you a wake-up."
Zeng Yi asked: "Since the price here is high, why don't you buy it directly from the garlic farmers, the price of the garlic farmers should be negotiable." ”
The old garlic merchant laughed and said: "I see that you are the first time to come to Wanshui Township, the method you said used to work, but now it doesn't work, this Wanshui Township A few years ago, someone began to hoard garlic and make a fortune, and now, it has almost become a situation where everyone hoards garlic and fried garlic." Besides, garlic farmers are not stupid, even if they can be cheaper, they will never be much cheaper than here, and you have to hire people yourself to buy directly from the field, which will take more time, plus all kinds of losses, in fact, it is almost the same as here. ”
"I see!" Zeng Yi said, looking humble and teachable.
"Think about it, garlic is two pieces of eight today, and it may be three pieces tomorrow, so the garlic farmer has garlic in his hand, and he will not be in a hurry to make a move, anyway, the garlic will not be bad for a while and a half, wait for two more days, maybe it will be four or five pieces, and the extra profit is equivalent to a variety of garlic for at least seven or eight years. The old garlic merchant took a sullen puff of his cigarette and said, "In short, this year's business is difficult to do!" ”
The words of the old garlic merchant made Zeng Yi's eyebrows tighten, the popularity of fried garlic in Wanshui Township was far more powerful than he imagined, everyone completely gave up the long-term, and used the garlic in their hands as a bargaining chip to gamble and fight, to strive for short-term huge profits. But everyone has forgotten that huge profits are bound to be accompanied by huge risks, especially when the cold inventory in Wanshui Township is close to saturation, and fantasizing that the price of garlic can increase several times, which is simply playing with fire. After a few garlic merchants finished smoking a cigarette there, some people finally couldn't hold it back, walked to the door of the cold storage, and said: "Two yuan eight, I want two cars, who will do this deal?" ”
The villagers who played cards stopped the game for a while and said, "It should have been so happy a long time ago." ”
Just talking, but no one was in a hurry to come out to talk about this business, the garlic merchant was anxious, and said: "There are always a few more steps to do business, do you sell garlic or not?" ”
Villagers, you look at me, I look at you, and finally a person stood up from the corner and said, "Two cars, right?" I'll sell you, but I'm not responsible for the delivery, you can find your own car! ”
Garlic Shang said: "Okay, let's sign a note, the car is on the road, and it will be there in a while." ”
The man nodded, and called the garlic merchant aside to sign the note, so that the two sides would not regret it again.
The old garlic merchant shook his head when he saw this situation, and said: "I heard that there was too much garlic in Wanshui Township to sell some time ago, so I just came to take a look, I wanted to collect a batch of cheap garlic, who knew that the price was so exaggerated, and it would be in vain if I didn't make this trip." ”
Zeng Yimo guessed the reason a little, most of it was because of the news in the newspaper, he was worried that the garlic would not be sold, and he would sell it for a dollar, but now he was worried that he would sell it earlier than others, so even if the price of two yuan eight is not low, those who hoard garlic are not in a hurry to sell it.
Maybe two days later, the price can rise again, and that's all profit!
However, Zeng Yi didn't take out the newspaper to show the old garlic merchants, and now the news has not been confirmed.
Leaving the cold storage, Zeng Yi went to the garlic planting everywhere to see, now Wanshui Township is about to come to the season of new garlic harvest, garlic merchants from all over the country have come one after another, Zeng Yi turned around, and saw a lot of garlic merchants bowing their heads to discuss the purchase with garlic farmers.
However, the result is not ideal, as the old garlic merchant said, the price is rising every day, and the garlic farmer thinks that there are still ten days before the new garlic can be harvested, so even if you are willing to pay a deposit, no one is willing to sell the garlic to you.
Coming out of Wanshui Township, the driver Lao Zhang asked Zeng Yi and said, "Director Zeng, where are we going now?" ”
Zeng Yi thought for a while and said, "Go to the Fangming County Agricultural Committee." ”
Lao Zhang said, "Do you want to go now?" Did you give them a notice in advance? Lao Zhang was a little hesitant, Zeng Yi was the superior leader of the Fangming County Agricultural Committee, and the superior leader took the initiative to meet his subordinates, which seemed a bit bad!
Zeng Yi said: "Go now, you call them!" ”
The driver, Lao Zhang, pulled over the car, and then called Xie Liangbin, the director of the office, and asked Xie Liangbin to notify the Fangming County Agricultural Committee.
The office of the Fangming County Agricultural Committee is located in the County Agricultural Bureau, which belongs to two brands and a set of people, and the director of the Fangming County Agricultural Committee is also the director of the Agricultural Bureau.
This point makes Zeng Yi agree very much, the director of the Committee of Agriculture is a very embarrassing position, if it is to strengthen coordination, then the director of the Committee of Agriculture must be hung up, if it is for business convenience, then it must be relied on, otherwise it will hang in the air without going up or down, there is no power to give orders downward, and there is no right to speak upward, and there is no ability to restrain and coordinate at the level, so the director of the Committee of Agriculture is basically a decoration, and a lot of financial resources and manpower are wasted.
Zeng Yi is now in an embarrassing category, if he can hang up to Li Jietong's position, or rely on the Municipal Agricultural Bureau, at least it will be much easier to do things.
When he came to the door of the Fangming County Agricultural Bureau, there were already seven or eight people standing at the door, and it seemed that they were all the heads of the county agricultural committee.
"Director Zeng, welcome to our Fangming County Agricultural Committee to guide the work!"
As soon as Zeng Yi got out of the car, Xun Zhihong and Lan Xiaoli, director of the Agricultural Committee of Fangming County, stood in front of Zeng Yi, with a warm smile on their faces.
Zeng Yi stretched out his hand to greet the two of them and said, "I can't talk about guidance, I just came to understand the situation." Saying that, Zeng Yi said to Xun Zhihong: "Why did you still alarm Comrade Zhihong!" ”
Facing Zeng Yi, who was full of aura, Xun Zhihong was extremely humble this time, and said: "Director Zeng is a city leader, and it is already rude not to welcome him from afar, I came over to serve tea and water to Director Zeng and do a job in reception services, which is also as it should be!" ”
Zeng Yi smiled and said, "How dare you do this!" ”
"County Magistrate Gao is having a meeting, and when the meeting is over, County Magistrate Gao will come over in person!" Xun Zhihong hurriedly added, now the people up and down in Fangming County are really afraid of Zeng Yi, he even dares to do something to burn Fangming County, and what else dare not be done, so Xun Zhihong received the report and came over as soon as possible, thinking about how to let Zeng Yi come and how to go back, but don't go wrong.
The driver Lao Zhang stood not far away, seeing this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, Director Zeng used to visit politely, none of you are willing to take care of it, who knows that Director Zeng was angry, and he didn't give them a good face, but they put on a hot face to stick Director Zeng's cold ass, you say cheap or not!
