Chapter 163: Wild Mountain Ginseng
"Brother-in-law, I may really have to go on a business trip to the Northeast in a while, and we also have a procurement quota for supplements like wild ginseng, so you can tell me about this!"
Yao Weimin picked up his wine glass and signaled, took the first sip, and looked at Lu Dongqing with a smile.
"No problem!" Lu Dongqing hurriedly drank the wine in the cup, and said while pouring wine for Yao Weimin:
"It's a bit of history about this wild ginseng!"
"Stop, don't talk nonsense! People are just asking you about the purchase of wild ginseng, what kind of history are you talking about! Shen Wenping glared at him anxiously, worried that he was talking too much nonsense, and Yao Weimin was not interested in listening to it.
"Hey...... It's also ha, I'll tell you slowly about the history of wild ginseng, and now I'll talk about how this wild ginseng came to our people's homes from the old forest! ”
Lu Dongqing felt that what his daughter-in-law said made sense, and said again:
"The old ginseng produced in Changbai Mountain, the people of the whole country know about this, but if you want to talk about the kind of ginseng sold in Sijiu City now, hey! As far as ordinary goods are concerned, although they are everywhere in our local area, they are not uncommon! ”
He saw Yao Weimin looking at him with great interest, so he lit a cigarette and continued: "Weimin, I don't understand the acquisition process of your purchasing station, I don't know who they are looking for to collect ginseng, but what I can tell you is that most of those ginseng are not enough!" Some of them were even planted by the hunters in the old woods on the slopes of the hills! ”
"This kind of ginseng is cheap, but there are local regulations that do not allow private trading, just waiting for buyers like you from all over the country to come over and sell it to the whole country."
Lu Dongqing subconsciously lowered his voice when he said this, and said mysteriously: "Our land over there is vast and sparsely populated, and the old forests are everywhere, so there are so many people who will go to the old forests to dig wild ginseng, which is valuable and the medicinal effect is better!" ”
"However, this kind of person generally does not dare to sell locally, so he can only secretly carry it out and sell it at a high price outside to make money to fill his life!"
Lu Dongqing looked at Shen Wenping proudly, "This time you know how valuable the ginseng my relatives gave us, right?!" ”
"Shh Shen Wenping glared at him disdainfully, but a smug smile appeared on his face.
"It turns out that there are so many ways, I am still a buyer, and I don't know much about my brother-in-law, haha......" Yao Weimin joked.
"Don't say that, Weimin, you are one of the few people I admire, come, drink one!" Lu Dongqing couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, and his expression was complacent.
Yao Weimin did not continue to ask, he felt that this occasion was inappropriate.
It's better to wait for tomorrow on the way to the Red Star Rolling Mill and learn more about the acquisition of wild ginseng with Lu Dongqing alone.
The worst is that when he goes to the Northeast on a business trip, he will ask Lu Dongqing to introduce his relatives to him.
The atmosphere of the banquet was warm, and the meal lasted until almost ten o'clock.
The whole family sent Yao Weimin out of the courtyard gate, and only turned around and went back to the courtyard until they saw the figure disappear at the mouth of the alley.
Yao Weimin, who left the Shen family, returned to his home, and after settling accounts with Gangzi, he went to bed.
At present, under the responsibility of Gangzi, the business of Sijiu City is gradually back on track, and he can almost send Yao Weimin 25,600 yuan every day, which is not much different from when Hua Li was there.
The development momentum of trading is good, Yao Weimin plans to go on a business trip to the south before going to the northeast on a business trip, and decided to buy more fruits at one time this time, and the province will go back and forth frequently in a short period of time.
There are monkeys in the south, and he can command them remotely by telegraphing, so it doesn't take too long to go on a business trip, just go there, pay the money, and bring the goods back.
Next, he plans to open up a second way to make money, selling high-end items like wild ginseng to people with good conditions to make a good profit.
People with different living standards in any period, except for special periods, food and drink are two situations, but it is not so obvious in this era.
After getting off work the next day, Lu Dongqing waited at the door of the purchasing station early, looking excited.
Yao Weimin and Su Jianjun greeted and separated at the gate of the courtyard, and then took Lu Dongqing and rushed towards the Red Star Rolling Mill.
"Wei Min, do you want to find a supply and marketing cooperative, and call again? In case Director Yang is not here today, won't we go in vain! ”
didn't go far, Lu Dongqing still felt a little unconvinced, and suggested in a low voice.
"Don't worry, since I promised you about this matter, then I guarantee that you can see Director Yang when you go, and he has to invite us to dinner!"
Yao Weimin smiled at him quite confidently.
"Hey, Weimin, you cow! It's just amazing! Lu Dongqing was overjoyed, and he was extremely looking forward to it.
"Brother-in-law, after I went back last night, I pondered for most of the night, and I still didn't understand a little bit about the wild ginseng."
Yao Weimin frowned slightly, slowed down the speed and looked at Lu Dongqing, "They dig it out and sell it casually, isn't the price very messy?" No standard at all? ”
"That's for sure!" Lu Dongqing heard that he would be able to get to know Director Yang later, and he was extremely grateful to Yao Weimin in his heart, so he naturally had to answer all questions, he also slowed down the speed of the car and explained seriously:
"Because the ginseng grows in the old forest, the years are different, some are hundreds of years, and some may be more than ten years, so there must be no standard in the price, besides, like they secretly carry out to sell, and when they meet knowledgeable, they may think it is suitable to sell, if they encounter the wronged leader, then they must not be slaughtered?"
When Lu Dongqing said this, he continued with envy: "Every time I come back to live in my house, oh it's my cousin, I see that he lives in a mountain village, but people's lives are not bad, and it's not all money earned by digging ginseng!" ”
Yao Weimin sighed with emotion when he heard this: "Your cousin is really a strange person, where do ordinary people have the courage to dare to go to the old forest, so, when I go to him on a business trip next time, you give a call to the tired, I admire this kind of courageous person!" ”
"Cheng, who is with whom, isn't this just a matter of one sentence!" Lu Dongqing nodded happily and agreed, and continued to follow Yao Weimin's words and said: "My cousin, he can't be called a strange person, the villagers over there are busy with the work in the field, and they are idle, and they go into the old forest to dig ginseng to earn some extra money, this kind of thing is common, and several nearby villages often do this!" ”
"Oh? So how many can they dig out once they go into the old forest? Yao Weimin looked curious.
"I can't say for sure, it depends on luck!" Lu Dongqing didn't know much about this kind of thing.
"Brother-in-law, let's talk about it here, what do you say, you work in the sales department of the agricultural machinery factory, and you are said to have a lot of contacts, so you didn't want to help your cousin turn over here? It saves him from having to run back and forth every time, haha......"
tomato
Yao Weimin said with a joking chuckle.
He wanted to know more, and it was just the two of them now, so he asked more directly.
"Weimin, don't you know, this ginseng is different from other things to eat, you say firewood, rice, oil and salt, if you don't eat it, you will be hungry, but this thing is different, we can't eat it, how should we live or how to live, it's not a necessity!"
Lu Dongqing analyzed seriously, "Also, how much is a carrot?" This ginseng is about the same size as a carrot, maybe a little smaller, but the price is so high I don't know how many times, who is it sold to? No one buys it at all! ”
Hearing this, Yao Weimin basically understood in his heart.
It's not that Lu Dongqing doesn't want to meddle in his cousin's ginseng, but he doesn't have the corresponding channels, and he is afraid of getting into trouble, so he doesn't dare to take this risk!
"It's also ha, brother-in-law, your analysis is quite reasonable, yes, wait for the next business trip to help me introduce your cousin, I have the right to be addicted, see what the real old ginseng looks like even if you are content, haha......" Yao Weimin roughly understood, and confirmed this matter again.
"No problem, when are you on a business trip, call my factory and tell me, I promise to let you meet your cousin!"
Lu Dongqing rode with one hand, patted his chest with the other hand, and saw Yao Weimin showing a satisfied look, and he was also happy.
The two rushed to the rolling mill, and before they could go to the security room to explain their intentions, they met Xu Damao, who had just returned from the movie.
"Second brother! Why do you have time to come to our factory today? ”
Xu Damao smiled enthusiastically, suddenly thought of a little, and asked in a surprised whisper: "Second brother, is Director Yang going to invite you to dinner again?" ”
Yao Weimin was quite satisfied with Xu Damao's recent performance, and did not ignore him, nodded with a smile, pointed to Lu Dongqing next to him and introduced: "This is my brother-in-law, I will have dinner with Director Yang tonight and talk about something." ”
"Gotcha! You come with me, please! Xu Damao suddenly became excited, Yao Weimin's attitude towards him made him feel encouraged, and in the process of leading the two into the factory, he politely called out to Lu Dongqing brother-in-law.
This made Lu Dongqing feel very useful, and felt that Bei'er had face.
He had met Xu Damao once before, and when he was drinking with Deputy Director Li, Xu Damao came in and toasted once, but at that time, Lu Dongqing was sitting on the side as a guest, and Xu Damao's attitude towards him at that time was not as polite and respectful as it is now.
And what surprised him even more was still to come.
As soon as the three of them entered the factory, they saw several people walking out of the factory office building.
At the head was an old man, with gray hair and strong spirits, who walked step by step, with a sense of authority.
This person is Director Yang, sitting in the office and seeing that the time agreed with Yao Weimin is almost up, he took several leaders on duty in the factory department to prepare to go downstairs to greet him.
"Haha...... Brother Weimin! It's been a long time! Director Yang stepped forward and shook hands with Yao Weimin cordially, with a polite smile on his face.
"Hello Director Yang, this time I took the liberty to visit, it won't affect your work, right?" Yao Weimin responded politely.
"What do you mean? Brother Weimin, you can come, that's something we can't ask for in the rolling mill, if you want to say that it has an impact, it is also an impact on the good side, haha......"
Director Yang's tone was with a kind reproach, and then corrected: "We are not from a unit, you don't need to call me Director Yang, I'm a lot older than you, if I can call Brother Yang in the future, my old man will be satisfied, haha......"
