Chapter 080: Who is the Tea Collector

After asking Han Zhankui to go to Wengjiashan to talk about the source of goods, Han Chunlei had one thing left to solve, that is, how to solve the problem of green tea preservation.

This preservation is both during transportation and once it is on sale. Why did the Longjing, which Guangyuan Teahouse purchased from the supply and marketing cooperatives, taste as rancid and trendy as stinky socks? Isn't it that the supply and marketing cooperatives did not store it properly during the sales period?

Generally speaking, tea farmers in tea-producing areas will put tea leaves into porcelain bottles and then add lime to seal them for preservation.

But this method is not suitable for retail.

Not to mention the cumbersome method of this soil, Han Chunlei can't teach customers how to preserve green tea one by one, right?

Sealing it with a plastic bag is a solution, but at the moment, plastic bags are a scarce object, and they are not as bad as in later generations. In today's supply and marketing cooperatives, the packaging of most commodities is either paper packaging, iron packaging, bamboo tube packaging, and some even have no packaging at all.

These packaging methods are very environmentally friendly, but the sealing is almost non-existent.

There is no airtight preservation, as mentioned before, it is easy to get damp and mildew.

However, as a small self-employed person, Han Chunlei can only choose low-cost paper packaging according to the cost and existing conditions.

He thought about it, in order to make up for the problem of unsealed paper packaging, the only way to make up for the problem of unsealed tea is to put a desiccant in each packaged tea to maintain the taste of green tea to the greatest extent.

Later, he inquired with a circle of acquaintances and unfamiliar people, but he couldn't find a factory to produce desiccant.

Even many people have never even heard of the word "desiccant".

"Isn't the desiccant thing coming out yet?"

Han Chunlei's heart couldn't help but drum.

At this moment, I miss the history, background, origin, suppliers, and logistics of the casual Internet search...... A future that you can see at a glance!

......

......

However, nostalgia is remembrance, problems still have to be solved, and difficulties still have to be overcome.

Therefore, in the next few days, I still asked people to inquire about the desiccant.

On this day, Han Zhankui's call again reached the Hubei Village Committee.

The matter of the source of goods, the news is coming.

The village department of Hubei Village.

On the phone, Han Zhankui said: "Chunlei, your aunt went back to her parents' house and helped you collect forty catties of autumn tea." It's all good autumn tea, the supply and marketing cooperatives collect tea for one pound and one dime, and your aunt collects it according to one catty and two cents, you think it's okay, right?"

Han Chunlei frowned slightly: "The price of two cents and two, of course it's no problem." However, Uncle Zhan Kui, why are you only a few dozen catties? Don't you ask my aunt to help me find a reliable and well-connected person in Wengjiashan and collect more tea for me?"

Han Zhankui: "Chunlei, Uncle was about to tell you about this." Your aunt has already inquired for you, and no one is willing to help you collect tea on Wengjiashan!"

Han Chunleiqi said: "Why? It's a pound and four cents profit, and it's low? Uncle, then don't be one pound and two cents and two cents, just two cents and eight cents." A pound I'll give him... Well, a dime of profit!"

The profit of a dime is quite impressive. To calculate according to the profit of this dime, this time Han Zhankui asked his daughter-in-law to go back to her parents' house and collected forty catties of autumn tea, and easily earned four yuan.

You must know that in inland areas these years, a third-level worker can only earn about 40 yuan a month. Ordinary mountain tea farmers in the Chaijiawu and Wengjiangshan areas can only earn 100 yuan a year.

However, to Han Chunlei's surprise, Han Zhankui couldn't hear a little joy in his voice on the phone, but was still a little embarrassed.

Han Zhankui: "Uh... It's not that the interest is low, your aunt said, it is the profit of four cents, and her brothers are very tempted. But your aunt really asked them to do this, and they wilted again. Everyone thinks that Chunlei, you are a small self-employed person, how much tea can you eat in a year? Can you compare with the supply and marketing cooperatives? Even if you collect it this year, you can still collect it next year? If you help you, a small self-employed person, go door to door to collect tea from tea farmers, and then offend the people of the supply and marketing cooperatives, it is not cost-effective. ”

"That's ......"

Han Chunlei fell silent.

Unexpectedly, it was really said by Li Jiajun, in inland areas, self-employed people are not much stronger than labor prisoners and blind outcasts, whether it is a tea farmer or an ordinary farmer, the trust in self-employed is absolutely limited.

This is the result of a special history, and this problem cannot be solved in a moment. this

Han Zhankui continued into the microphone: "Also, everyone is also worried that if someone pulls their pigtails and deducts a crime of speculation, the government will directly cancel their identity as tea farmers." You are not from Wengjiashan, you don't know that the government takes care of tea farmers. What they eat is commercial grain, as well as oil, cloth, pesticides, fertilizers, and all kinds of subsidies anyway. Although this treatment is not as good as the workers in the factory, it is much better than the ordinary farmers in the countryside of Chaijiawu. Tell me, if they offend the supply and marketing cooperatives because they help you collect tea, and they also have a lawsuit and lose their identity as tea farmers, who can be willing?"

Han Chunlei has not been in this era for a short time, and of course he knows what it means to "eat commercial grain".

Eating commercial food means being like the people in the city, having a job, security, and honor.

Han Zhankui: "Hey, Chunlei, are you still there, can you hear your uncle?"

"Uh... Listening, uncle. ”

Han Chunlei came back to his senses and said a little depressedly: "It seems that this person who helped me collect tea in Wengjiashan is not easy to find!"

Han Zhankui on the other end of the phone also sighed and said, "Alas, yes." I thought that the national policy was getting looser and looser, and the people of Wengjiashan were getting bolder and bolder. Now it seems that no one has the courage to let anyone take the lead in collecting this tea in Wengjiashan Village. ”

"No one wants to take the lead, so is anyone willing to sell it?"

Han Chunlei suddenly realized that no one dared to stand up and collect tea, which did not mean that the tea farmers did not have any small ideas in their hearts.

Sure enough, I heard Han Zhankui say: "Sell, you must be willing to sell." If no one is willing to sell it, how did your aunt's 40 catties of tea come from? The tea grown by the tea farmers belongs to the village collective. As for the village collective, in addition to waiting for the supply and marketing cooperatives to collect tea every year, they will give a part of the tea to the tea farmers. Tea farmers receive these teas, in addition to their own use, they will also exchange them for eggs, rice and so on, and subsidize their families. ”

"I see, I've pretty much figured it out, uncle. ”

Han Chunlei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The people of Wengjiashan, even if they are not tea farmers, are also related to tea planting at home, so everyone is afraid of offending the supply and marketing cooperatives, and they are afraid of being canceled as tea farmers." So the key to this matter is to find someone who is trustworthy outside Wengjiashan to enter Wengjiashan to collect tea for me. ”

When Han Zhankui heard this, he nodded and said, "Yes, why didn't I understand it at the beginning?"

Han Chunlei said with a smile: "The authorities are confused. ”

Han Zhankui suddenly reminded: "But Chunlei, don't beat your aunt's idea, she is not suitable for you to enter Wengjia Mountain to collect tea with great fanfare, his mother's brothers are all tea farmers, but they don't dare to affect others." Also, your uncle and I are the village party secretary of our Chaijiawu, and the veteran party members who have done revolutionary work for decades dare not get involved in this speculative matter too deeply. ”

Han Chunlei: "......"

At this time, I thought that I was the secretary of the village party committee and that I was an old party member? When the village was engaged in the engineering team, Han Chunlei did not see him rarely contribute.

But also, seeking benefits for the young people of the whole village, and seeking benefits for him Han Chunlei alone, even if they are both speculative, the nature is not the same.

It seems that Comrade Han is very sober in his head.

The corners of Han Chunlei's mouth raised slightly, and he smiled lightly.

He really didn't plan to let Aunt Zhan Kui play the role of this candidate who went to Wengjiashan to harvest tea for him.

In his mind, he chose this person who was suitable to collect tea for him for a long time.

This person, first of all, must be bold and not afraid of things, flexible and able to do business, and the most critical thing must be reliable and trusting.

He thinks about people in his heart, and if he wants to be reliable and trusting, the first choice must be his family.

But his mother Mao Yuzhen and sister Han Chuntao are both women, and at this time, they are not suitable.

His brother Han Chunfeng is too young, and he is still collecting cow dung all over the village with his bare buttocks.

Brother Xi Lu can speak well and trust enough, but now that people are working in the dance hall, it is the time when they are in high spirits, and it is impossible to go back.

Lao Cao?

I'm not familiar with Weng Jiashan, and I'm used to being the boss, he will definitely be able to invest some money in individual stocks, but let him help him run errands, it's enough!

He pondered for a while, but for a while he really couldn't think of a suitable candidate.

I really can't do it, so I just wait for my self-employed business license to go back and look for this candidate for tea collection on the spot.

Doing business is really not as simple as imagined, and all kinds of problems and difficulties are added at the beginning. It is also the difficulty of desiccant, and the problem of the recipient.

If he wants to succeed, both of these problems must be solved.

Later, on the phone, Han Chunlei asked Han Zhankui to hand over the 40 catties of autumn tea he received this time to his mother to store in a porcelain bottle, and as for the tea money, he would go to the post office in the afternoon to remit it.

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

In the afternoon, Han Chunlei went to the post office to remit 12 pieces of 8 cents of tea to Han Zhankui.

On the way back, I bought a pound of braised beef by the way, planning to add a dish and have a meal with Brother Xiong's family in the evening.

When I got home, it was almost evening, and it was time for dinner.

Usually at this time, Teresa Teng's melodious singing has sounded in the courtyard, Sister Hong, Ah Can, and Ah Xiong will all enjoy the cool or wait for dinner in the yard.

Today, though, the yard is empty.

"Bang dang!"

The sound of a metal object suddenly falling to the ground!

Listening to this movement, it should have come from Ah Xiong's mother's room.

There were also a few violent quarrels.

"What's the situation?"

Han Chunlei was holding braised beef in his hand, and his face was slightly stunned.
