Due to the favorable coal storage season of end customers, coal prices have been rising, and Anshun Logistics' business has made considerable profits for several months.

At the same time as the price of coal climbs, the inventory of end customers also rises, and after reaching the peak, the purchasing enthusiasm of end customers will immediately decline, and coal prices will fall sharply.

Even if the price falls sharply, all coal mines are in normal production, if you stop production, you have to arrange your own construction team to take vacations, and the vacation wages are still paid, and the coal boss does not want to bear it, not to mention the price fall, the coal mine still has objective profits.

After all, coal mines are fixed investments before they are put into operation, and the variable costs after they are put into operation are relatively small.

There are opportunities to make money at the peaks and troughs of the economic cycle, but it is difficult to seize the opportunities that change quickly, and it takes a lot of courage.

Coal prices are falling every day, the coal produced by the coal mine cannot be processed in a timely manner, the coal storage space is limited, and the situation of silo topping occurs almost every day.

Xiang Tianya decided to take a chance during the temporary trough period of coal, so he found Yang Fei and Li Gongzi to discuss cooperation, and let Li Gongzi purchase the remaining production capacity of Gaoliang Coal Mine every day as a trader.

"Childe, you now have four coal plants, why don't you take advantage of the low price of coal to store coal, and make a big profit when the price of coal recovers!" In Li Gongzi's tall office, he marketed his plan to Tianya.

"Now that the price of coal has fallen, the coal storage period of downstream customers has passed, and the risk of coal storage is very high at this time!" Li Gongzi likes to make money when the price of coal climbs.

"Compared with last year, this summer's high temperature and scorching heat triggered the climax of electricity consumption in summer, and at the same time, it also caused end customers to store coal earlier than in previous years, so it has led to the decline in coal prices now." Xiangtianya is not a gamble, but a target after analyzing data.

"Coal prices soared last winter, but this year it's a downward trend!" Li Gongzi said.

"Yes, this year, with the intervention of national policies, the railway capacity has increased rapidly, and the problem of coal transfer has been alleviated.

Since the beginning of this year, the increase in imported coal has indirectly affected domestic coal prices, but the state is about to increase efforts to rectify small coal mines, and then the coal production capacity will be reduced to a certain extent, and the price of coal will naturally rise! ”

"There is also a rising probability of a war between the United States and Iran, and if the United States and Iran carry out, crude oil prices will rise sharply, which will inevitably lead to a sharp rise in international coal prices!"

Li Gongzi nodded again and again when he saw Xiang Tianya's calm analysis of domestic macro policies and the international coal market, and the trend of coal prices from the perspective of the US-Iran war.

"So how do we work together?" Li Gongzi became interested in cooperation.

"You are responsible for the funds, and I am responsible for purchasing coal from the sorghum coal mine at a price 20 yuan/ton below the market price, eating all the remaining capacity of the sorghum coal mine, and then storing it in your four coal plants! When the coal market recovers, you can choose the opportunity to make a move! Xiang Tianya said.

"How are the profits distributed?" This is a matter of great concern to both sides.

"I take 10 yuan/ton, no matter how much profit is left to you, if you lose money in the end, I don't take a penny, but you have to pay for your own profits and losses! Judging from the current market, the probability of your loss is infinitely close to 0, which means that your absolute risk is very small! "On the issue of benefit distribution, Xiang Tianya likes a fixed price.

"Well, are you sure about the coal mine price negotiation?" Li Gongzi then asked.

"It's on me!" patted his chest to Tianya and promised.

Li Gongzi has four coal plants, if all of them are full, there will be as many as 100,000 tons, and after talking with Li Gongzi, he should ask Liu Xiaogui for help.

When Liu Xiaogui heard that Xiang Tianya was going to eat the remaining production capacity of the Gaoliang Coal Mine alone, he was stunned for a moment, thinking that this kid had won the lottery, and when he knew that Xiang Tianya was cooperating with others, he took him to negotiate with Mine Manager Li.

Mine Manager Li is worried about the sale of coal mines, and Xiang Tianya has brought a solution to this timely rain, but this plan will cause some blood in the coal mine.

"It's really scary, but what conditions are there for you to help deal with the remaining capacity?" Mine Chief Li said after listening to the report to Tianya.

"If I take all the remaining capacity, I will ask the coal price to drop by 20 yuan/ton on the basis of the market price." Offered to the end of the world.

"The requirements are reasonable, but I also have a condition, you will help the Gaoliang Coal Mine open up the railway transportation channel within 3 months, so that the coal from the Gaoliang Coal Mine can go directly to the port!" The 20 yuan/ton floating discount sorghum coal mine is affordable, and the coal stored in the coal mine will not only have loss and other additional costs, but also have the risk of fire after a long time.

In 2002, under the regulation and control of the state, the volume of railway transportation is increasing day by day, and the direct delivery of coal to the port can effectively solve the problem of unsalable coal and increase profits, Li Zelin smelled business opportunities.

"Deal!" Whether it is to eat all of the world or open up the railway transportation link, Gaoliang Coal Mine can solve the problem of overcapacity.

Approaching the end of the year, Xiang Tianya sensed that the time had come, so a large quantity of coal was transported to Li Gongzi's coal factory at an internally negotiated price.

On March 20, 2003, the outbreak of the Iraq War caused international crude oil prices to skyrocket, and coal prices also rose.

Li Gongzi took the opportunity to sell all the coal reserves and made a big profit, and Xiang Tianya also earned the first 1 million in his life.

Xiang Tianya built a bridge through Li Gongzi, rented part of the lane of Yunchuan platform, and did road-rail combined transportation, which not only helped the sorghum coal mine successfully transfer coal to the port, but also started railway transportation by himself.

That night, Xiang Tianya drove alone to Liuxiang Art Street, which is the cradle of slow life in the twin cities.

In this century-old street-turned-art street, graffiti is everywhere in the streets, and coffee shops with different characteristics are lined up in the alleys.

Xiang Tianya walked into the 'Cat on the Corner' café and sat by the window.

"What do you want to drink, sir?" A waitress in a coffee-colored apron walked over and handed Xiang Tianya a menu.

"Let's have a cappuccino sweetheart set." Xiang Tianya didn't look at the menu.

"Sir, this is a couple's package, is it served for you now or after everyone is ready?" The waiter asked politely.

"Let's go now..."Xiang Tianya said as he looked out the window. At this time, the lights are on, the moonlight is like water, hazy over cyan, and the fireworks are heavy.

The pale yellow lights in the café create a warm atmosphere, the graffiti cats on the walls are laughing, this place is so familiar yet so strange...

Xiang Tianya took a sip of coffee, closed his eyes and quietly felt the charm of light music, for a long, long time...

"Sir, we're closing..."The waiter woke up Xiang Tianya, who was intoxicated.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" Xiang Tianya got up at this time, and left the cat on the corner after checking out...
