Chapter Twenty-Five: Selling Food
"Little comrade, I don't know how much grain you have in your hands?" Yang Zhongwei asked in a low voice, although there are no guests in the hotel, there are waiters not far away.
"You want to buy food?" Xia Yanru reacted after asking nonsense, and then said, "I have a lot of food, but I don't know how much you need." ”
"Well, I want that much, do I?" Yang Zhongwei stretched out 5 fingers and asked.
"5 tons?" Xia Yanru frowned slightly.
Yang Zhongwei heard the shaking of the five-ton body, and hurriedly wanted to explain, but before he could speak, he only heard the person opposite say that it was no problem.
"What?" Yang Zhongwei doubted whether he was hallucinating, he originally wanted to ask if there were five thousand catties, but he asked a little wishful thinking about this amount, but he didn't expect the other party to mistakenly think that five tons didn't say, there really was.
"I mean give you 10 tons, can you eat them?" Xia Yanru repeated one side again, and at the same time realized that she might have misunderstood the meaning of the other party's five fingers, but the words were spoken, and she would not regret it.
"So, how much does that food cost?" Yang Zhongwei was excited, there are a lot of workers in their factory, if they can really buy five tons of grain, each person can get a lot.
"It's only 2 percent more expensive than the market price, and if there aren't so many food stamps, use the money to deduct it." Xia Yanru replied that the price was one percent more than in the village, not that she wanted to make money, but that the people in front of her were different from those villagers, and the other party could be the deputy factory director, but it was not a simple person, if it was given out according to the price given to the village, it would be a little difficult to prevaricate.
Okay, now Yang Zhongwei is going to cry with joy, the grain is only two percent more expensive than the market price, he can't remember when he encountered it, anyway, he can't buy it now, not only does he feel that he has hit a big luck, but he has met such a conscientious broker.
Obviously, this is Yang Zhongwei who regarded Xia Yanru as a broker, this kind of person has existed since ancient times, but after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was stipulated that private trading was not allowed, and most of the brokers turned from the open to the dark.
"I want 10 tons, but the food will wait for me for two days, and I need to raise funds." Yang Zhongwei said tentatively, he wasn't sure if the other party was willing to wait so long.
However, 10 tons of grain is a lot, at the current market price of two percent of the conversion, coarse grain is 1 cent 3 cents a catty, ordinary rice 2 cents 1 cent a catty, ordinary white flour is 1 cent 8 cents a catty, even if all the most expensive rice, not counting the ticket will cost 4200 yuan.
He must communicate with the factory first, otherwise he will not be able to come up with so much money by himself, not to mention, the purchase of grain is for the pharmaceutical factory, which must also be reported to the factory.
Sending money is certainly unrealistic, and the fastest way is to call back now and send someone with two pieces of money, so that the time will not be delayed too long, and it will prevent anything from happening.
Xia Yanru tapped lightly on the dining table with her right hand, knocking again and again but not giving the other party a reply, she was thinking about this time, it was safe to pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, but she didn't have much time, and the four villages were waiting for her food to save her life.
What she didn't know was that Yang Zhongwei, who was sitting opposite, was nervous as she tapped down, his heart was about to jump out nervously, he was really afraid of being rejected, after all, being a broker was a high-risk profession these days, and if he didn't hurry up to find the next home and get rid of the goods in his hand, he would be at risk of being a nest at any time.
"You find a car to be responsible for transportation, and I can escort the car back with you to collect the money, but..."Xia Yanru stopped tapping on the table, her face was serious, and she deliberately paused for a few seconds in the middle of speaking, "But you have to help me find another convoy to transport goods, I still have a batch of grain to be transported to Xingliang Township in Fengyan County." ”
The surprise came too suddenly, and Yang Zhongwei even wondered if the other party had some ulterior secrets, but when he listened to the last half of Xia Yanru's sentence, he felt that the other party should have asked him for such a concession, after all, the team is not easy to find, especially in his personal name.
"Little comrade, in this way, although I don't know how much grain you want to transport, but even if it is 10 tons of grain, if you want to transport it back to Fengyan County, it is not something that a convoy can do, if you believe me, I suggest taking the waterway, we can use the boat ferry." Yang Zhongwei didn't dare to guess how much grain the little comrade in front of him had, but for the sake of convenience, he decided to suggest using a freighter.
Hongpu City has the largest Yunjin Wharf in Yunnan Province, also known as Yunjin Port, where there are many cargo ships and passenger ships coming and going every day, when encountering a large number of cargo transportation, in addition to the railway is the first choice, followed by faster cargo ships.
Fengyan County also has a medium-sized wharf, which is still because Fengyan County happens to be at the largest tributary point of the Hejiang River, and the Hongqi Pharmaceutical Factory is also quite famous in Yunnan Province, so when the wharf was built, it was deliberately built according to the level of the medium-sized wharf.
Xia Yanru didn't know that she could also take water transportation, and she didn't know that Fengyan County still had a large cargo wharf, in her impression, Fengyan County was really not big, according to the time and space where she was before, it was a fifth- or sixth-tier city.
It's just that Xia Yanru hasn't realized that in this era, all cities don't seem to be very prosperous, on the contrary, Fengyan County has a large pharmaceutical factory, which is really much better than several surrounding counties.
"If Director Yang can find a cargo ship to transport, I have no opinion on this side, the conditions are still what I just said, I can collect the goods on delivery, but I must be responsible for transporting my grain back to Fengyan County." Xia Yanru nodded, with the better option of water transportation, she naturally would not choose the relatively troublesome land transportation.
Thinking that she was not familiar with the waterway, and carefully asked about the time required, Xia Yanru decided to wait until the departure time was determined, and then go to the post office to call the village to inform the village of the arrival time of the grain, so that they could prepare manpower, after all, the amount of grain this time was very large, and to meet the amount of four villages, it was not a few tons that could be solved.
Xia Yanru told Yang Zhongwei the weight of the grain in her hand first, as for the place where the grain was placed, it would have to wait until Yang Zhongwei had booked the freighter, and although it was changed to water transportation back to Fengyan County, the grain was transported from the place where the grain was put to the wharf, and the distance in between still needed to be transported by truck.
Leaving these things to Yang Zhongwei to be directly responsible for it seems that Xia Yanru is a little idle, but she is not familiar with Hongpu City, and her identity is just a villager, and she is not as useful as Yang Zhongwei, the deputy director of the pharmaceutical factory, so even if she wants to help, she can't help.
It's just that she taught Yang Zhongwei to deal with all the affairs so reassuringly, but it put a lot of pressure on Yang Zhongwei, he didn't think that the other party was trusting him, it was all fake, how long had the two known each other, and where did the trust come from.
Yang Zhongwei only felt that Xia Yanru dared to let go so big-heartedly, obviously he was not afraid of his hands and feet, and he was not afraid of being hacked and eaten black, he could generally get so much food, that was not something that a broker could do, he already suspected that Xia Yanru was behind a huge grain reselling group.
It's just that these are what Yang Zhongwei thinks in his heart, and he didn't show any signs in the process of getting along with Xia Yanru, he also understands that no matter how much power the other party has behind him, as long as he doesn't have bad intentions, he won't have anything, and judging from the grain prices quoted by the other party, he feels that such a conscientious broker is really rare if he doesn't take the opportunity to make a fortune, and it is even more worthy of friendship.
