Chapter 47: Reverse City
Sun Zhiming's purchase of cashmere was very smooth at first.
They were divided into two groups. Sun Zhiming took Gao Chenghu and Hao Jun to collect the velvet in Longjiayuan, except for the team where he and Long Hao were, the other teams went one by one.
I didn't go to my own team because I knew that most of the velvet on the team had been sold, and the few remaining households would collect it at the end, ready to give the highest price.
Dongzi took Fang Zhen, Wang Jinghui and Zhao Wenqing to buy in his village. Collect the velvet from your own village first, and then go to other villages.
The velvet harvests quite quickly. Other dealers collected white velvet for 123 yuan a catty, and Sun Zhiming and Dongzi directly mentioned 170 yuan a catty for purchase. As a result, other dealers could not buy it, and many villagers chased back the velvet they had just sold and sold it to Sun Zhiming and them.
Although it is not the cashmere season, there are still many traffickers, and there are several groups of people in each village who are buying. After learning that the price of cashmere had risen, most of the dealers sold the cashmere they had just harvested to Sun Zhiming. The price is higher than that of the big peddlers in the town, so naturally they will not let go of the opportunity to make money.
The news of the price increase spread very quickly. By noon, the surrounding villages had all known. Many people used motorcycles to go to Longjiayuan with a little velvet, and after asking if the price had indeed increased, they immediately sold the velvet to Sun Zhiming.
Of course, the quality is very strict, only first-class velvet is collected, and the slightest defect is not collected. This fellow villagers can also understand this, the price is so high, it must be collected. If there is a slight defect, it will not be able to sell, but the price is low.
Some traffickers are very unwilling, but they are helpless. They also want to raise the price, but it can't go up that high. The big dealers in Kushui Town only gave one hundred and forty-five, how much can they rise? You can't lose money, can you?
But if the price does not rise, it can't even collect a catty, at most it can collect some defective products, and the price is not low. The price of first-class velvet will rise, and other velvet will also rise, which is inevitable.
Seeing that the people handed over the velvet to Sun Zhiming, some of the dealers finally couldn't sit still and rode on motorcycles to Kushui Town.
The big dealers in town are also restless. It's been a long time, and I haven't received a pound of cashmere, and no dealer has come back to hand over the cashmere. When I went out to inquire, it turned out that the price had increased.
Could it be that the price of the woolen yarn factory has risen?
According to the usual situation, if the price increases, they will be notified in advance, and they will also set the price for those hawkers to buy. Today, no one noticed, and there was no warning, and the price suddenly went up, what's going on?
The big dealers did not dare to slack off, and trotted into the town's post and telecommunications office, asking for a phone that shook violently.
The phone calls that should have been made have been made, and the situation is basically clear. The price of the velvet factory has not increased, nor has the price increased in other places, and even several surrounding towns have not increased in price.
In other words, the price rose locally, and it rose suddenly, and the big dealers were a little confused.
The woolen yarn factory has not raised the price, but these hawkers have raised the price themselves, how can there be such a thing? If you're not stupid, you're crazy.
At this moment, a few hawkers who had gone to Longjiayuan to collect velvet returned. After asking about the situation, the big dealers were furious, said hello, got on the motorcycle and ran to Longjiayuan. Five or six peddlers followed, riding as fast as they could.
Sun Zhiming was collecting fleece in the yard of a family on the west side of Longjiayuan. There were more than a dozen fellows gathered around, and a few other squads arrived, each with cashmere, some with half a bag, some with a whole bag, and some with several bags.
There was no queue, but it was orderly. Whoever comes first and who arrives later is clear to everyone, whoever is the turn will go and weigh, and the others squat behind to smoke and gossip.
Gao Chenghu was responsible for weighing and weighing, and Hao Jun was responsible for bookkeeping and maintaining order at the same time.
Originally, Sun Zhiming wanted to keep accounts, but he wrote slowly and the words were ugly. Hao Jun looked at it for a while, then asked for the account book and wrote it quickly.
Sun Zhiming stretched out his head and saw that the word was much better than himself, and it was also compared to Long Hao. It seems that the people in the city are different, they don't seem to have much culture, but they really have goods in their stomachs. He simply let Hao Jun keep the accounts, he was only responsible for the quality, and then he was paid.
There was a sound of motorcycles in the west. Sun Zhiming turned his head and saw that several motorcycles were driving over, thinking that they were from the village in the west, so he didn't care, and continued to untie the bag and check.
But Hao Jun felt abnormal. The motorcycle was fast, and there didn't seem to be anything behind it, so it couldn't be a fluffy. He glanced at Gao Chenghu and asked him to get ready.
Gao Chenghu turned his head to look at the motorcycle that was flying away, and nodded secretly. Four or five motorcycles, six or seven small traders and hawkers, he really didn't pay much attention to it.
Several motorbikes drove into the yard and stopped until they reached the scales. Gao Chenghu's eyes immediately widened, and his fists were clenched.
"Oh, it's Boss Li? I thought it was a handover, and I didn't go out to greet it, and I hope Boss Li will forgive me. Sun Zhiming hurriedly walked over and patted Gao Chenghu's arm.
"Who's collecting the velvet? You? A dry man in his fifties parked his motorcycle and looked up at Sun Zhiming with a questioning tone.
"Boss Li, it's me who collects the velvet." Sun Zhiming took out a cigarette and distributed it to the dry man and a few people behind him.
They are all cashmere, and they know each other, and some of them are quite familiar.
"What about them? Why haven't you seen it? Boss Li took the cigarette and pointed at Gao Chenghu and Hao Jun.
"Oh, they're all my friends, come and help me collect the velvet." Sun Zhiming took out a lighter and lit a cigarette for the dry man.
"How much do you pay for cashmere?" This dry man known as Boss Li didn't want to be verbose at all, and went straight to the point when he came up.
"One hundred and seventeen, if you have a velvet, take it, as much as you want." Sun Zhiming puffed on a smoke ring.
"One hundred and seventeen? Kilogram or pound? ”
"It must be a pound in the city, and I'm afraid that the price of kilograms can't even be collected for three or four years, right? Of course, it must be good cashmere, and if it is not good cashmere, it will not be charged. ”
"Zhiming, it's not been a day or two since you collected the velvet, when did you pay this price? Isn't this a backward market? ”
"Boss Li, the reverse market is a bit too much, right? I want to collect some good cashmere, but the price is not high, can it work? Besides, they are all villagers, and they produce such a little wool in a year, are they embarrassed to lower the price? ”
"Zhiming, don't you know that I set the price of cashmere in this area?"
"This has been the case in the past, and I have handed over all the fleece I have collected to you. Now I want to do it myself, so I set my own price, and I can set as much as I want, is that a problem? ”
"Now that no one has handed me the velvet, do you think there is a problem?"
"It's a joke, you can control the heavens and the earth, can you still manage it, is there anyone who hands you over the velvet? Besides, why do you want to hand over the velvet? Are you everyone's food and clothing parents? Or did you give money to everyone? If you give money to everyone and give everyone food and clothing, then I won't say anything, turn around and leave, and all the velvet that has been collected will belong to you. ”
"So, you've paid everyone? Wear it for everyone? ”
"I didn't! So everyone can hand it over to me if they want to, and if they don't want to hand it over, I will never stop it. Don't talk nonsense, you go and ask these fellows, if you are willing to hand over the velvet, I will never let out half a stinky fart. You ask, ask! Sun Zhiming pointed to the villagers around him who were ready to hand over the velvet.
