Chapter Seventy-Seven: Reciprocity
It's as if the more pitiful they say, the better the price they can get. And they insisted that everyone came together, and the rest of the things should be sold together. If you sell it in the end, you will not be able to explain it to your family when you go home.
Only Li Wenkui said that his own goods could be sold last.
It can be seen that because the transaction is not going well, there are not many people who still have confidence in the leader, and many people have their own ideas.
Now they are facing themselves who come to be staff officers, and they are still talking about the ideal price of unity. If you are facing a buyer of real money, you will be given a variety of prices at this time, and Li Wenkui can no longer control the situation.
Master Dong should have known some of the situation and only frowned silently, and only began to analyze the situation with everyone after everyone finished speaking.
Now is the season of spring flowers, sweet potatoes and potatoes are easy to sprout and rot and should be shot immediately; Other items should also be disposed of as early as possible, taking into account the situation in the fields.
Everyone nodded busily, and they also wanted to go home early. They came to the capital to make money, so they didn't bring a lot of money with them. A steamed bun in this capital costs a penny, and when you are thirsty and drink tea, you have to spend money to buy it. In just a few days, many people's pockets were empty.
In Dong's house, there is no need to spend copper to eat and live, but the people who come are all good men, and they can't help all day long to eat and drink in other people's homes, and they are either shrunk in the house or run outside, and they can't mention the shame.
Yiyi went on to say that as long as the goods did not deteriorate, they could be sold with the volume of the capital, and it was nothing more than a matter of price.
Based on the manpower consumed by everyone's ten days of round-trip, plus the cost of renting a car, and the time spent staying in the capital, each person is converted into nearly three taels of silver; The per capita weight of each vehicle is less than 1,500 catties, and the capacity loss per catty has exceeded two cents. From this point of view, the price that everyone asks for is not excessive. But at the current market price, it is difficult to find such a buyer.
The people ran around the market for many days and knew that this was the truth. There were a few who said that their foot money could not be counted, but Li Wenkui was silent.
Yiyi signaled everyone to be calm and said two plans. One is that she can teach you a few recipes for making them, so that everyone can process the local products and sell them, and the price can be much higher. It's just that the processing site, the purchase of tools, processing materials, etc. still have to pay some more money, and the buyer also needs everyone to find it. I will go out in two days, and it is difficult to say how much you can learn the craft;
Then he can process and sell everyone's local products, but the money will be settled when he returns to Beijing next month or sells it at the stall. The price of local products does not let everyone suffer, and the loss of decay, rot, germination and other losses after their own inspection has nothing to do with everyone.
Master Dong hurriedly said: "Don't be embarrassed by the virtuous nephew, how can I let you pay this money." ”
"Uncle Shi is relieved, the little nephew also needs to be purchased."
"Your stall has been rented, it should be almost ready for the goods, right?" Lord Dong is still not at ease.
Yiyi also said half-jokingly: "I originally didn't say that I was going to buy dozens of taels of local products, but here it is only more than 100 taels of silver." There's no next time if I can't make money, so don't worry. It's just that I can give you the silver next month, and I have to help Shibo take care of it today. This is a little business that I have made up on my own, and I can't let my third uncle pay for it anymore. ”
If Lord Dong accepts this pile of native products, he will not be able to use it, so he can only put it at home and rot. I listened to Yiyi's repeated saying that it was useful to buy it, so I was relieved. As for the guarantee, it is just a joke, with their official position, they can guarantee a few hundred taels of silver or even a thousand taels of silver.
Everyone over there had already discussed in groups, and after a while, they still came to Li Wenkui to get an idea. After gathering everyone's opinions, he returned to Yiyi.
Everyone agreed to transfer the goods to Lord Lin, so that everyone could go home as soon as possible to take care of the crops. He will wait in the capital until next month to bring money back to everyone.
It seems that everyone is embarrassed, let Master Dong, who has been busy before and after, be the guarantor, then it is normal for Li Wenkui, who everyone can trust and behave, to be in Beijing.
The next thing is to inspect the goods, and Li Wenkui asked for a few bags of random inspection and re-weighing of each of the goods.
Yiyi's divine sense has already inspected all the goods, and there are only a few of them that have just deteriorated and rotted, Li Wenkui is not a ghost, and he only lost a little water when weighing.
Her space is full of ingredients, just to ask for some bright sources of ingredients, and can't make everyone think that she doesn't care about the quality of the local products before she came to inspect it, how can she care about this loss.
It seems that this Li Wenkui's personality, vision, courage, and tenacity are all excellent, and he is really a good talent.
The overall quality of the goods is acceptable, and Yiyi gave the price: "Sweet potatoes, potatoes, soybeans, corn four yuan a catty, peanuts eight yuan, mung bean twelve yuan, broad beans nine dollars." plus the freight of two cents per catty is fifty-one taels and six dollars. ”
This is a very good price, which is higher than the retail price in the shop, and everyone is very satisfied.
"There are still some rotten ones in this batch of goods, so Lord Lin might as well deduct half of the loss."
As soon as Li Wenkui's words came out, only a few people responded to it, and most of them were silent, not easy to object, and reluctant to agree.
Master Dong wanted to interject, but Yiyi had already spoken: "I originally wanted to mention this." It's just that I don't want to be stingy with what you said, so I'll settle it according to the amount you started to report. ”
Only then did everyone become happy, and they all looked at Li Wenkui with admiration.
The list totals one hundred and seventy-eight taels. Everyone calculated their own benefits, and then thought that they could go home immediately after packing their things, and they couldn't be happy.
Mr. Dong stayed with everyone in Beijing for a few days, and Mrs. Dong also came out to keep everyone. It's rare to come thousands of miles, it's time to take a good look around, everyone thanked again and again, saying that they were worried about the work of the family, and they also thanked Lord Dong and his wife for taking care of Yunyun.
Yiyi here, please transport the local products to your own warehouse in the West Market, and it was full for a while. Everyone unloaded the goods, thanked Yiyi, and went back to Dong's Mansion to pack up their things and prepare to return home.
She then took Li Wenkui to see her stall, and said that she could take over this place in the afternoon, and it was Master Dong who watched the delivery procedures handled by the two parties. Hua Xiang couldn't help but look at Li Wenkui with disgust several times.
"Lord Lin, that's not what I meant. It's just that this time I took the villagers to come to the capital without the liberty of the villagers, thanks to the help of Lord Lin, so that the big guy would not miss the farming time, and I had the face to go back to my hometown to face my relatives and friends. I wanted to see if I could help you so I could repay you. Li Wenkui's slightly dark face turned black and red.
Yiyi has long been accustomed to some ways of doing things in the modern business field, and I don't think there is anything embarrassing about doing so. But the other party is so kind, Yiyi also treats him as a friend in his heart, and doesn't say more.
She instructed Qingzhu to take Li Wenkui to the tea stall she used to go to to see if Sister-in-law Zhou had come, and left the fragrance of flowers on the stall to see if there was anything she could help with.
Throw off the two of them and go back to the warehouse alone to collect the local products, and enter the warehouse through a gate, with three rows of warehouses inside. Straw bales and bamboo baskets go in and out of the warehouse every day, not as eye-catching as the flower and fruit trees last time.
When she put away her things, bought three new locks and returned to the stall, Sister-in-law Zhou really came with Qingzhu. The four of them were waiting for her at the stall, and Sister-in-law Zhou was particularly happy.
Yiyi introduced Sister-in-law Zhou to the old stall owner and his wife, handed over three new locks to Sister-in-law Zhou, and kept two sets of keys for herself.
asked Li Wenkui about his plans again, and when he said that he was going to leave the Dong Mansion and find another place to live, he had an idea in his heart and took the three of them back to Lin's house first.
When he arrived at Lin's house, he first asked Qingzhu to accompany Li Wenkui to drink water in the front yard, and then went directly to Meiyuan.
The third uncle was reading a book in the landlord's house in the plum courtyard and accompanying his father, and Yiyi told him everything about today.
"You only rented a stall, didn't you have the money?" Lin Zhaoxian was a little surprised, and Yiyi would rent a small stall.
