Chapter 30 Anecdote of City A (9) Propane is coming

With the Soviet District of City A as the center, it radiated to the 'Changbai Island' area at the junction of the Soviet District and the Heping District, which made the 'Soviet Gang' suffer from the counterattack of friends on the road for the first time, and soon the price of liquefied gas began to ferment, and the gas price of 'Changbai Island' was cheap, causing many 'upside-down donkey riders' to flock to here from the Soviet District. Changbai Island is full of traffic, and even the nearby villagers don't know what is going on here for a while, and why there are so many 'gas dealers' coming to the door of the usually deserted house. ’

"Boss, the Soviet area has also dropped to 1750, if you don't give us a cheap price, we don't need to come all the way to your inflatable!" The reason why a 'gas dealer' who charges a 'ton of gas' a day in a van and drives a 'van bread' converted from an old 'ambulance' is that he dares to bargain with the owners of the liquefied gas station for only one purpose, and that after the cheaper, it will be cheaper.

'It's 1750 over there?' Come on, you wait a minute, I'll call my brother and see what he has to say! 'Offensive and defensive alliances, the owner of a liquefied gas station, really don't dare to cut the price privately, if that's the case, he's going to die.' ’

"It's Brother Quan, the Soviet District Gang has also lowered the price, what should we do?" What? Also cut the price, you said that you negotiated with the No. 1 oil factory in F city, and said that as long as we want gas from their factory, they will give a preferential price, which is great, it seems that the day of making a fortune has really come! Have you listened to it, the price has been reduced, the price has been reduced, 1700 per ton, you go in and charge! It is impossible to have so much business on weekdays, but the price reduction notice is not spreading, and soon the large and small 'gas dealers' have been killed here, and the inflators in the inflatable room are all sweating profusely, and they don't even have the strength to push the can.

'I'm going to put it here, I'm not going to help you lift it up, I'm so tired!' 'The inflator who is responsible for transporting to the customer. I didn't eat lunch, and I didn't have the strength to load the car anymore.

"It's okay brother, I'll do it myself, as long as you are cheap, the difference in the price saved, I can take care of a small job!" In the market economy, price is the advantage, a ton of gas can save 50 yuan a day, and 1,500 yuan a month, in the mid-nineties of the last century. The monthly salary of a 'laborer' is only 500 yuan, and the 'ambulance gas dealer' feels that it is worth it.

'F City No. 2 Petroleum Plant', leaving the factory 'liquefied gas' and 'propane', they have always served the major liquefied gas stations in City A, as long as a phone call passes, the gas tanker truck of 'F City No. 2 Petroleum Plant' will come to City A on the same day.

'F City No. 1 Petroleum Plant' is comparable to the big brother of No. 2 Plant, which was separated from No. 1 Plant. Among the oil factories in City F, both factories are under the jurisdiction of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of City F, and in the early nineties of the last century, the major factories implemented the 'factory director responsibility system'. The two factories of the oil factory in City F have become a competitive relationship, and the two factories are both oriented to different consumers, and one serves the east of City A. One serves the west of City A, which is quite stable.

'Brother Quan', a ruffian from 'Changbai Island' in City A, in order to drive the 'Soviet District Gang' out of 'Changbai Island'. He came to F City alone, and after visiting the main leaders of the 'F City No. 2 Petroleum Plant' with heavy gifts, he received a reply that "the liquefied gas station in the Soviet District is an old relationship with their factory, and they can't offend big customers because of your small Changbai Island, and they veto Quan's request." ’

After many inquiries, we learned that the 'Soviet District Gang' had already called this principal leader a brother after the reunification of the Soviet District, so he said that he had come for nothing this time.

"Factory director, don't you know, now the No. 2 Petroleum Plant in F City is a cow B, they can make us miserable, the same is to send gas to City A, they have to give the Soviet area 50 yuan cheaper, give us an extra 50, you look at the map, this map is F city to us where is it, or to the Soviet area, they have to pass through us to transport the gas to the Soviet area, I don't like to meet them in general, otherwise I am on the road, they can't transport a car of gas there!" After several turnovers, 'Brother Quan' found the home of the director of the 'No. 1 Petroleum Factory in F City', and gave a lot of good things not to mention.

"You take your things back, I can't ask for your things, the No. 2 Petroleum Plant in City F was originally separated from our No. 1 Factory, in fact, they are all a family, and they are all under the control of the city, we are only responsible for the east of City A, and we don't want to meddle in the affairs of your City A!" The CEOs of state-owned enterprises are all 'red-top businessmen', in addition to getting higher salaries than officials of the same level, they still work hard for their own careers, maybe he will become a district leader in a certain district in F City in one year, so making enemies in officialdom is definitely not what he wants to do.

As soon as 'Brother Quan' heard that the 'radical method' was not good, he said again, 'You don't care, then I have to tell you in advance, don't cry one day and you can't find the temple gate!' ’

Where did this come from, and why did I cry? ’

'I'll tell you the truth, why did I come to you today, it's because I got on a few cars of gas a few years ago, that gas, don't mention it, it's all red-hot, the gas in the past was walan, and then I asked what's going on, they F City Petroleum No. 2 Factory, in order to give more bonuses to the workers years ago, I don't know what B stuff is seeping into it, it smells old, I asked him, how do you use this gas, guess what they said? ’

'How?' ’

"Do you like to use it, now this thing, we are still good, F City Oil Factory 1 is more TMD ruthless, last time there was a car gas transported to DL City, even the fire is not gas, the whole TMD is water, I asked him, how do you know this, guess what he said? ’

'What do you mean?' ’

It was their factory director who said it at the factory staff meeting, and scolded you, saying that you are a state-owned enterprise moth, the city should have replaced you a long time ago, what oil company will be established in F city in the future, the first factory, the second factory will be merged into this company, when he can be the general manager, the first one is to send you back to grandma's house, don't be angry, this is not what I said, I learned from others, you want to know the details, one day I will find someone for you, you personally ask him on the line! ’

When the director of the No. 1 Petroleum Factory in F City heard this, he was so angry that he stretched out his palm and slapped it on the coffee table, "I used to always find out, people don't offend me, I don't offend people, it's really soft persimmons that are easy to pinch, the more I don't make a move, the more he bullies you, Lao Quan, tomorrow you bring me the person who said this to you, I want to ask him face to face, if there is such a thing, I will help you, but if you want to sow discord in front of me, my eyes are not rubbing sand, you kid give me a memory!" ’

"I'm so tired, I'll find you when I go back, factory director, you see I'm here, you can give me two trucks of gas to pull back, I've offended the people of the No. 2 Petroleum Plant in F City, and they can't give it to me!" The plan designed by Brother Quan has finally been realized.

'How much do they give you?' ’

'1600 a ton, I seem to have heard that the price of the second factory has been reduced recently, I didn't go to ask for gas, and I don't know what the price is. ’

'Then let's do it, I'll give you two cars of gas, you go back first, do you bring cash, if you do, you 1550 a ton! ’

"Although I didn't bring much cash, but I brought a card, this is a nationwide deposit and withdrawal, you pretend to be angry for me first, and I will immediately withdraw the money for you tomorrow morning!" ’

"That's not good, our factory is not on credit at first sight, you have to cash to pull, in the future, we are acquainted, and then talk about the things that are cooked, you can remember it for me, I want to see the person who spoke, if you kid lied to me, we will be elsewhere in the future." ’

"Okay, I promise to bring you someone, you can rest assured, so let's do it, I'll find a hotel near your factory to stay overnight, and as soon as the bank opens tomorrow, I'll withdraw money to boost my gas!" ’

'Scum' is everywhere, and soon 'Brother Quan' you will hear that there is a 'stuffy tanker' driver who has just been fired from the 'F City No. 2 Petroleum Plant', and he has not found a job for a while, and under the lure of money, this person has sold the factories that he has worked for many years, and according to the 'Brother Quan' in advance, he said nonsense to the director of the 'F City No. 1 Petroleum Plant', saying that the director of the factory is jumping high, and he swears in the office that he must work with the 'F City No. 2 Petroleum Plant' to the end.

Due to the sufficient cash preparation, 'Quange' picked up a total of more than a dozen truckloads of liquefied petroleum gas at the 'No. 1 Petroleum Plant in F City' that day, including two truckloads of 'propane', for the 'liquefied gas industry' in City A, this 'propane' is very unfamiliar, and many 'gas dealers' have a low cultural history, and they don't know what this 'propane' is.

"Brother Quan, you said that this gas is cheaper than the No. 2 Petroleum Plant in F City, but what are you doing with this 'propane', why did you bring it to me!" The largest liquefied gas station in Changbai Island is still in the hands of 'Brother Quan', he and the boss here are 'Brother Bai', that person only knows how to make money by selling gas, and he has really made a lot of money in recent years, which is related to the care of 'Brother Quan'.

"You're stupid, you're good, this thing is good, although it's a little expensive, but it's not left, 15KG is 15KG, you look at it, I'll show you a little bit!" When Brother Quan lit the stove with a lighter, the flame of the tile blue rose up, and no matter how far you opened the valve, the flame was always blue.

"This thing is so wow, how to sell it, if there is nothing left, this ignition point must be very high, in that case, the hotel will not be happy to die, we are freezing in winter, a can of gas is left half a jar of 'residual liquid', it is not easy to scald it with boiling water, if there is this, then the entire 'gas dealers' in City A have to come to our station to inflate ah!" The owner of the liquefied gas station has a strong sense of fantasy, and he seems to have seen something in his consciousness, which may be a 'gas canister' queuing up to inflate, or it may be a large amount of RMB.
