Chapter 91: Buying and Selling
Six pieces of five cents four.
This is the money that Ma Daqing and his daughter-in-law earn from farming for a month, compared to the time when they were able to eat something every month, they are now rich and like heaven.
Although farming is hard, they get up early and are greedy for darkness, but they also worked hard before, needless to say, they can't eat enough. And now, they are well fed and have money. Of course, this is getting better and better, and there is still hope than before.
The little couple who got the money did not save the money, but led the horse and carried the empty basket and began to purchase in Pingyue.
Only, can this new money really be used? The two of them were still a little hesitant while holding the money.
In hesitation, they walked to the rice shop.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and the rice shop was also opening, looking at the white rice in the rice shop, to be honest, the two couldn't help swallowing their saliva.
Ma Daqing couldn't help pinching the money in his hand, pulled the horse to his daughter-in-law, and then stepped forward alone.
"Shopkeeper, how do you sell your rice?"
"5 cents a pound, big brother, how much do you want?" When the shopkeeper saw that it was Ma Daqing who had just come back from selling vegetables, he knew that they were rich, and he greeted them enthusiastically for the first business in the morning.
"5 cents a pound, then my money, can I use it?" Ma Daqing was sure, and then took out a piece of new money for one dollar.
The shopkeeper's eyes immediately lit up: "Why can't you use it, you can use it, there are discounts for buying rice with new money, 4 cents a catty, how much do you want?" The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.
"Ah, and the deals?" Ma Daqing grew his mouth and glanced back at his daughter-in-law.
"Then I'll get a dollar." Ma Daqing said.
"Okay, big brother, wait a minute!" The shopkeeper answered, and then under Ma Daqing's gaze, he weighed twenty-five catties of rice.
"Big brother, take it, one dollar of rice, a total of twenty-five catties, you take this bill, if there is anything wrong with the rice, you can bring it to me."
Paying the money with one hand, delivering the goods with the other, and carrying the heavy rice in his hand, Ma Daqing came back to his senses and hurriedly said thank you to the shopkeeper, and Ma Daqing ran to his daughter-in-law all of a sudden.
"Cuihua, this money can really be used, and I bought us an extra five catties!" Ma Daqing said excitedly.
In the previous month, Pingyue's rice was still five cents a catty, but now they use Singapore dollars, and they can still be cheaper by one penny, which is really surprising.
However, Ma Daqing surprised them more than just rice.
Next, they took the new dollar to buy salt, cloth, and even a few pieces of candy for the child on a whim, all of which were a little cheaper than the copper dollars they used before.
What they didn't know, of course, was that Heigotsu had already had the new banknotes in circulation almost a week earlier. And they naturally won't know that for a pound of rice they bought for 4 cents, the owner of the rice shop can go to the Bank of China to get the money with the bill.
Because the Bank of China buys rice from the rice shop for six cents a catty, and then discounts the Singapore dollar users for four cents. In this way, the owner of the rice shop can make an extra penny.
Otherwise, how could the owners of those shops be willing to lower the prices of their goods for no reason?
Naturally, this needs to be driven by profits.
The Bank of China has also pushed their new currency so vigorously to the effect, and by now, 99% of the people in Pingyue use the new currency.
As for the previous copper dollars, silver dollars, and even silver taels were slowly accepted by the Bank of China.
Although the Bank of China has made some losses in doing so, it will definitely be beneficial in the long run.
"Okay, daughter-in-law, now that we have sold almost all kinds of supplies, let's go outside the city to buy chickens and ducks, buy fertilizer and go home!"
After some shopping, Ma Daqing and they only used up two yuan, and they still had more than three yuan left in their hands. And looking at the rich booty on the back of the horse, the smiles of Ma Daqing and his daughter-in-law never disappeared from their faces.
This is the life of life, this is the life that ordinary people want.
It's hard work, but it's enough to have hope every day.
But after buying the necessities, they still have to plan for the next month.
They soon came to the Pingyue Agricultural Products Recycling and Processing Corporation outside Pingyue City, and as soon as they arrived, they went straight to the fertilizer department, the seed department, and the poultry department.
Last month's chickens, ducks, and vegetables were sold, and if they want to continue to make money next month, they must continue to invest.
Two packs of fertilizer, one pack of one hundred catties, one pack of five cents is a must, to grow high-yield cabbage, fertilizer is necessary! In just a few months of propaganda and practice, all the farmers around Pingyue now know that they need fertilizer to grow high-yield food, and if they don't use fertilizer, they can't produce high yields.
So, fertilizer is what they have to buy.
After the fertilizer is bought, the seeds must also be bought, and the seeds developed by the Pingyue company can grow high-yield food, and if the seeds and fertilizers do not cooperate with each other, they will not be able to grow any high-yield food.
It's just that this time the two couples came to buy seeds, and the extra seeds made them a little unsure of how to choose.
"There are cabbage seeds, turnip seeds, corn seeds, tomato seeds, eggplant seeds, what seeds do you need?"
Under the introduction of the salesperson, looking at the suddenly extra seeds, Ma Daqing and his daughter-in-law were a little confused.
"Why are you paying it back, there are still more seeds?" Ma Daqing didn't know how to choose.
"Our company has developed new seeds, eggplant, tomatoes, and even watermelon seeds, you have no problem choosing any seed, these seeds can be high-yielding." The salesperson introduced.
These extra seeds are naturally the extra seeds that Chen Liqing's super farm has upgraded. These seeds can be planted by these farmers.
"What about the price of new seeds?" Ma Daqing hesitated for a moment and asked about these new seeds.
Naturally, they also want to eat new vegetables.
"The price of all seeds is the same, five cents and two acres." Chen Liqing's company buys seeds not by the number of seeds, but by the area where the seeds can be planted.
This kind of marketing is more cost-effective.
"Okay, let's have tomatoes and eggplants this time." Ma Daqing discussed with his daughter-in-law and chose a new seed.
"There will be a lesson in the farmers' association for planting new seeds, and you need to listen to it before planting, and if you use new seeds to plant the first harvest and buy it from our company, we will buy your first new vegetables at a high price of one penny and five pounds." While the salesperson is holding the seeds, she informs you of the precautions for the new seeds.
Chen Liqing's purpose, farmers must learn to plant, learn to plant scientifically, and he will be of great use in the future! That's why they spare no effort to let the peasants go to class.
"Don't worry, we'll go to the class." Ma Daqing They were used to this planting pattern, and they nodded heavily when they heard this.
"Alright, let's go buy chickens and ducks." Seeing that the money was quickly spent, although the two of them were a little pity, they thought that they could earn more next time, and they put away their frustration again.
It's just that, when they came to the poultry department, they saw that there was another animal, sheep, and they were surprised again.
If there are any extra animals, Chen Liqing will send them to the poultry department to sell.
Although he took out new seeds every once in a while, he even changed into animals, which surprised Han Weiliang and the others. But Chen Liqing found a very good and magical reason to fool these people.
A cave, a magical cave, a big cave three miles from Pingyue.
Chen Liqing fooled Han Weiliang and fooled everyone, saying that new seeds and new animals would appear in this cave every once in a while, and then these seed animals were all found in the cave.
Moreover, it seems that only when he goes in, he dreams, and then he goes to that cave will there be something new, a new animal!
Although such a reason is strange and mythical, when Han Weiliang and the others personally saw Chen Liqing enter the cave empty-handed, and then led out a group of cows, they were completely and completely convinced.
They take what this technology can't explain, it's a complete myth.
They thought that Chen Liqing was a god descending from heaven or something, and even Chen Mingren was frightened.
Fortunately, Chen Liqing only behaved special in these places, and his performance in other places was average, and they reluctantly accepted Chen Liqing.
Since then, Chen Mingren, Zhang Xianmo, Han Weiliang, Chen Liqun, and Chen Lijun will not treat Chen Liqing as an ordinary child.
Anyway, the reason that Chen Liqing found was very good and powerful, and it completely deceived everyone.
He doesn't need to worry about it in the future to continue fooling everyone.
Of course, this is just an episode behind the poultry, and the current Ma Daqing and his daughter-in-law naturally don't know this.
They still chose chickens and ducks, not sheep.
They still have two pigs in the family that have not grown up, and it is a bit difficult to raise other poultry.
Chickens and ducks are two small animals that are completely very easy to raise, some cabbage broken leaves, some insects are enough for these chickens and ducks to grow up, the cycle is short, and the effect is fast.
is the best choice for them.
Chickens and duck seedlings are not expensive, two cents a piece, a dime can buy five, and one dollar can buy fifty.
After the two of them bought fifty-three in one go, they only had five cents left in their hands.
"Wife, it's fun, this trip down, we seem to have run away in vain, only five cents?"
On the way back, looking at another big bag of things on the horse's back, Ma Daqing triumphantly took out five cents. After buying so many things, there are still five cents to earn, which is simple happiness for the two of them.
However, they didn't know that their previous buying and selling behavior was an economic transaction for Pingyue and Chen Liqun.
Their new currency has successfully circulated in the market with an extra five dollars.
This is the purpose of Chen Liqun and their opening of the Bank of China, as long as their coins completely replace the silver dollar, they can do a great business.
