Chapter 378: Where Did You Get So Much Wood (Ask for Subscription)
In this kind of supply and marketing cooperative, the most affordable is all kinds of firewood, whether it is firewood or charcoal, not only the quality is high, but the price is also very low, as if it does not need money.
Originally, the price of firewood in Guangzhou was five cents and one hundred catties, but after the war, especially after the Chinese army occupied Guangzhou, the price rose directly to the price of two cents and two hundred catties, but this time it dropped directly to six cents and one hundred catties, and it looks like it will continue to decline.
The so-called seven things to open the door, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, modern people have insufficient understanding of the importance of firewood, and feel that there is always no food as important, but in fact it is not true.
Taking Guangzhou as an example, among the bulk materials provided to the people of Guangzhou in Guangdong outside Guangzhou, the total price of grain is more than 1 million taels, the total price of firewood is also more than 1 million taels, the total price of tea is about 30,000 taels, and the total price of cloth is 200,000 taels, which is much less than firewood and grain.
Considering that the unit price of firewood is much cheaper than grain, it can be said that firewood is the largest bulk material in total and is very important to a city.
Every day, there are huge convoys lining up from outside the city to enter the major supply and marketing cooperatives in the city, and then scatter them to every household.
Many Guangzhou citizens feel that the opportunity is not to be missed, and immediately buy a large amount of firewood reserves, fortunately to buy cheap firewood, but can't help but wonder, where these firewood come from, it seems to be a little different from ordinary firewood.
There are good deeds to trace the source of these firewood, all the way to the old site of the Sanyuan Temple outside the city, and then it can't be investigated.
After the Sanyuanguan was burned down by the army itself, it was once in ruins, and later the people of Sanyuanguan built an earthen wall to enclose it, but the buildings inside were not restored.
Some people who traced the source of firewood found that these vehicles pulling firewood came out of Sanyuanguan in a steady stream, and then pulled to Guangzhou City, but they did not find that there were vehicles to pull so much firewood to Sanyuanguan, but it was as if these firewood appeared out of thin air, which made people have a lot of conjectures about it.
Ordinary people don't know too many secrets, but some big people know more or less about the situation, and they immediately have some guesses after hearing about the situation, but this thing is too ridiculous, but they don't dare to confirm it at the first time.
Under these circumstances, the three major courtyards of Guangzhou sent invitations to the big businessmen and gentry in Guangzhou, inviting everyone to visit the various industries of the Chinese Liberation Army and appreciate the cooperation plan together in Sanyuanguan.
The six giants signed and sent invitations together, and naturally no one dared to stand up and say no, not to mention that everyone was also very curious about the situation of the Sanyuan Temple these days, and finally naturally came enthusiastically and gathered at the Sanyuan Temple.
The Sanyuan Temple was also very famous before, but it was just a Taoist temple with many powerful martial artists, but now it is really developed, and there are many more rules.
Many leading figures in Guangzhou City sat in a sedan chair and rushed to the outside of the Sanyuan Temple, but were told that they must not take a sedan chair to enter the Guanli, and they must walk, otherwise they will not be allowed to enter.
On the spot, some people scolded their mothers in their hearts, and they wanted to say a word of virtue, but fortunately, most of them were businessmen who came up, and there was still some self-cultivation, and they should walk down with a smile, and there was nothing stunned to jump out and say that this rule was unreasonable.
"I really think of myself as a palace. "There are a few people who secretly curse in their hearts, but it is inevitable.
However, Sun Daoyuan felt that it didn't matter, no matter how big the Sanyuan Concept was, it was only a few steps, and for the sake of life and death in Guangzhou, it didn't matter if he took a few more steps.
This grandson of Sun Daoyuan does not have the laziness that ordinary gentry often have, although the smell of wind and frost on his body is not heavy, but his skin is dark, and his hands and face are rough, not like a pampered master, but more like a long-term worker who often works.
In fact, this old man Sun runs a boat shop at home, and the business is very large, but he is very diligent, often goes to the construction site to supervise the work, and even goes directly to work when he is interested.
It's just that Sun Daoyuan just took a few steps before trouble came in.
"That Brother Sun, Master Sun, don't go so fast, so you can pull my old Xue by the hand. Someone came panting from behind and tried his best to pull Sun Daoyuan's sleeve.
"Master Xue, it's only been a few steps, why are you sweating so much?" Sun Daoyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the person coming, and didn't want to be light when he understood this way.
"The rules of this three-element view are really big, I've been here a few times before, it's no problem, why don't you let people sit in a sedan chair, you can't do this when it's developed." The person who came grabbed Sun Daoyuan, and half of his body leaned on Sun Daoyuan, as if he couldn't walk without this.
Sun Daoyuan frowned, but he also understood that he couldn't throw people off at this moment.
It turned out that the person whose surname was Xue, and he knew Sun Daoyuan, and he usually did a few businesses, but the friendship was not deep, and it could only be said that he was between a nodding friend and an ordinary business partner.
This person's surname is Xue, and he is in the civil engineering industry, that is, the construction industry in this era, and his family is also very rich, at least a net worth of more than 100,000 taels, which is similar to Sun Daoyuan.
This net worth is very rich compared with ordinary people, even the Lin family of Fuwei Dart Bureau was only a few hundred thousand taels a few years ago, and it may not be as good as the Xue family and the Sun family in terms of influence in Guangzhou.
It's just that what kind of people Li Xian and Wang Jiuxuan invited today, they are all first-class people in Guangzhou, and most of them have a net worth of more than one million taels of silver, even more than 10 million taels There are also several giants such as the Pan family and the Wu family, relatively speaking, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are only at the bottom.
This old man Xue is different from Sun Daoyuan, he has always been pampered, he has a fat body of at least two hundred pounds, he walks tremblingly, he used to sit in a sedan chair, but once he was forced to walk, he couldn't stand it, so he wanted to find someone to help him.
However, Master Xue is also a human spirit, knowing that all the people present are rich, and they are all people who are several times stronger than themselves, and if they really want to come over, no one will be willing to deal with them, but fortunately, he saw Sun Daoyuan, who is about the same grade as his own family, and usually has a little friendship, and he is also very strong, so he immediately leaned over, hoping that Sun Daoyuan could help him.
Fortunately, he really made the right bet, Sun Daoyuan frowned, but he was embarrassed to leave people down like this, so he could only find a way to help people up.
After the Huaxia army occupied Guangzhou, it did not prohibit the gentry in the city from leaving, resulting in many big families leaving the city of Guangzhou in order to avoid the war, some of them went to the jurisdiction of the Qing court, some went to Hong Kong, and some went directly to Nanyang, and there were various options.
Xuanzheng of Sanyuanguan once spent a lot of effort to acquire the various industries left behind by these families when they left, and invested millions of taels of real money to buy hundreds of factories and workshops, but with the prosperity of Guangzhou, it was impossible for Sanyuanguan to buy all the industries, not even half of them.
The Sun family and the Xue family are both families that gritted their teeth and stayed because their foundations are in Guangzhou, their family backgrounds are similar, and they are both engaged in the recognized coolie industry, so it is appropriate to support each other at a critical moment.
The two of them followed the flow of people for a while, looking at the surrounding situation and couldn't help but marvel.
