Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 524 Xiao Sheng is a good comrade

When Sheng Xiping took the list, he saw that it had been circled and drawn with red pen over and over again, so that the original appearance could hardly be seen.

Sheng Xiping saw the quarrel between the forestry workers and the leaders of the Ministry of Finance just now, and the various difficulties faced by several experts.

At this time, Sheng Xiping couldn't help but sighed.

In fact, the construction of this country is similar to the life of ordinary people. Only when you have money in your pocket can you have a strong waist.

I have no money and want to buy something, so I can only pick and pick, pick and pick, and pick out the most cost-effective thing to buy home.

The difference is that what the country lacks now is foreign exchange and U.S. dollars.

"Mr. Yang, actually this matter is not that complicated." Sheng Xiping coughed lightly and spoke carefully.

"We can buy more machine tools, I have a way."

"What can we do?" When Lin Gong and others heard this, their eyes widened and they asked Sheng Xiping excitedly.

"Comrade Xiao Sheng, if you can find a way to buy machine tools without using so much foreign exchange, that would be great.

If you have any conditions, just mention them and I will try my best to meet them. "Mr. Yang's eyes lit up and he hurriedly spoke.

Sheng Xiping is just an ordinary person. As a member of this country, he has the consciousness to contribute to the construction of the motherland, and he will definitely try his best to help those who can.

Especially forest workers and other experts were so happy that they almost jumped up.

That's why it was so heartbreaking when they had no choice but to cut it down.

Mr. Yang looked at Sheng Xiping with love and appreciation in his eyes.

Buy, must buy, must buy them all, buy more.

When Lin Gong and several other experts heard this, they immediately became happy, grabbed the list, and selected it again.

In this case, Mr. Yang and Lin Gong would not have to face difficulties.

For such a machine, the price quoted by Alexander was really a bargain. It was a little more expensive than scrap metal. Buying it was like getting a big bargain.

Buy as many sets as you can. No amount of this thing is too much.

However, Sheng Xiping did not let the translator copy down the description of the transaction method, that is, 70% of the goods and 30% of the US dollars.

Sheng Xiping was soft-hearted, and he couldn't bear to see all the old people in the room who were over 60 years old, all frowning and sighing.

Mr. Yang and the others don't have foreign exchange, but Tengyue Company does, and so does Huayang Wood Products Processing Factory.

Based on Sheng Xiping's experience in dealing with Ivanov and his understanding of Maozi, it is likely that the machine tool has not been used much since it was installed, and it is possible that it is 90% new.

If you have enough foreign exchange in your hand, you have to buy it all back.

If you have any requests, just ask and I will handle it for you. If I can't handle it, I will report it to you and I will definitely solve it for you. "

It's okay, this isn't a one-time deal. I'll buy it again when I have more money. "

"Okay, our company has export business and some foreign exchange reserves. I'll find a way for the rest." Sheng Xiping nodded towards these old comrades and said with a smile.

"However, I can't buy too much this time, let's go for three to four million US dollars.

So when they heard that settlement could be done in RMB, the experts were excited and ready to move.

This is too little. Where is there enough for what? This kind of great bargain is something you can only come across but cannot ask for. If you don’t take it, you won’t get it.

Sheng Xiping can use the company's foreign exchange and goods to exchange the machine tools and then sell them to the departments in need.

I wonder if leaders can accept this?
That is to say, you don’t care how I bought the machine tool, and don’t care how much I paid for it, whether it was US dollars or other currencies.

Of course, the quotation on the original document has not changed at all. It is the reference price for the transaction between the two parties, and Sheng Xiping will not cheat on it.

Mr. Yang and Wu Bingzhong couldn't get involved and just looked at the scene in front of them with smiles.

The list that Sheng Xiping brought out was hand-copied by a translator. Sheng Xiping had already hidden the original Russian copy.

"Mr. Yang, if I say, I can buy these machine tools, then I don't need you to pay US dollars, I only need to pay RMB according to the exchange rate.

"Thanks to Comrade Xiao Sheng this time, otherwise, where would we buy these good things?
Comrade Xiaosheng, you have made a great contribution this time. Do you have any requests?

As soon as Sheng Xiping finished speaking, Mr. Yang, Lin Gong, and a leader from the Ministry of Finance all shouted excitedly.

I had no choice but to come up with this idea.

I'll be responsible for buying it. You can convert it into RMB according to the pricing on this list. Is this okay? "

They are all top experts in this field, and they know the value of those machine tools very well.

Alexander and the others are talking about 80% new machine tools.

Without the opportunities provided by Sheng Xiping, they would not be able to buy these machine tools no matter how much money they spent.

"Comrade Xiaosheng, are you kidding me? Is it really possible to settle in RMB?"

"Oh, that helps a lot. Come on, come on, give me the list again. I have to take a good look at it and choose some more."

However, the details of the cooperation between the two parties are commercial secrets. How could Sheng Xiping leak them at will?

Not to mention, the prices on that list are incredibly cheap.

Sheng Xiping was afraid that when these old men got happy, they would open their mouths and say that there would be eight or ten sets, so he set a quota.

It's just that Sheng Xiping didn't expect that Mr. Yang and the others would go to such great lengths to finally approve one million US dollars.

Sheng Xiping thought for a while and realized that something really happened. "Don't mention it, I really have something that I don't know who to ask for help." Sheng Xiping said with some embarrassment.

"That's what happened. I used to be a worker in a forest farm, and I loved going into the mountains to hunt. That year I went into the mountains and picked up a tiger cub, and I took it home and raised it."

Sheng Xiping has been worrying about building a tiger forest garden for Huahua, but he still has no clue.

Since Mr. Yang said that he could handle anything, Sheng Xiping was not the kind of person who was pretending to be polite, so he simply took the opportunity to make arrangements for Hulinyuan.

After hearing what Sheng Xiping said, Mr. Yang and Wu Bingzhong were stunned.

They originally thought that Sheng Xiping would come up with some policies, such as tax reductions and exemptions.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Xiping wanted to build a retirement home for his big tiger.

"He is a good boy with a pure heart.

Tell me, with such a good opportunity, he does not seek wealth or power, but wants to give his tiger a place to retire.

Bingzhong, if your Yucheng can be with such a person, he will never make a mistake in the future. " Mr. Yang looked at Sheng Xiping, the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.

"Sure, after the things here are finished, I will find a way to approve the procedures for Hulin Garden after I return to the capital.

Protecting wild animals is a good thing, Xiping, you are this one. " Mr. Yang gave Sheng Xiping a thumbs up and praised him repeatedly.

Sheng Xiping scratched his head in embarrassment, "Yang Laoguo said, I don't have any great sentiments. I just like our Huahua and can't bear to part with it." Lin Gong and others argued for a long time, and finally settled on four sets of different types of machine tools. A total of 4.1 million U.S. dollars, which is 100,000 U.S. dollars beyond the scope of Sheng Xi's pacification.

Sheng Xiping thought for a while and realized that this should be nothing and could be solved.

So, someone re-copied the list and handed it to Sheng Xiping. Next, Sheng Xiping discussed the specific details with Alexander and the others.

So many big guys gathered in Heihe, waiting for news about Sheng Xiping, did he dare to delay?
Regardless of which day the border trade opened, early in the morning, Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng took a few people to go through the customs clearance procedures and went to the cloth market opposite to find Ivanov, Alexander and others.

The two parties met at Andre's company. Sheng Xiping gave Alexander and others the list of goods he wanted to purchase, and then there was a lot of bargaining.

In the end, Sheng Xiping negotiated the machine tools at 80% of the quoted price.

As agreed by both parties, 30% will be paid in U.S. dollars and the other 70% will be offset by goods.

As a result, although Sheng Xiping lost some money in foreign exchange, he made up for it in terms of goods and other aspects, and was able to make a small profit.

Machine tools are different from the previous materials. They are still prohibited items. Alexander is secretly selling them out, and he certainly cannot just cross the border in the name of machine tools.

Therefore, after discussion, the two parties decided to dismantle the machine tool, mix it with scrap metal, declare it and ship it over to customs.

On the Maozi Customs side, Ivanov's side had already opened up the joints, so there was no problem. The special steel was also declared under other names.

On the Heihe side, Sheng Xiping needs to take care of it. This is not difficult, Mr. Yang can do it in just one sentence.

After the cooperation was negotiated, Andre booked a table at the best restaurant in the city and had to invite Sheng Xiping and the others to dinner as a celebration.

So, on the last day of 1986, Sheng Xiping and others drank too much in Bushi and almost didn't come back.

Sheng Xiping and others came back from the cloth market in the evening. As soon as they returned to the warehouse base, they fell asleep. When they woke up and opened their eyes, it was already the first day of 1987.

New Year's Day, January 1, 1987, was the day when the Heihe border trade between China and the Soviet Union resumed.

After breakfast, Sheng Xiping took his people to the riverside to wait for the goods.

After one year of development, Heihe border trade has undergone earth-shaking changes compared with last year.

The number of merchants going to the island for trade alone has increased several times compared to last year.

During this year, Tengyue Company recruited more people to expand its scale, and now has nearly 200 employees. Most of them are veterans from various places.

With enough manpower, Sheng Xiping asked Sun Jinggang to lead some people to use sledges to pull goods to the island for trade.

Don't underestimate this retail trade. There are tens of thousands of profits a day and several million a year. It's enough to fund employees.

Alexander needs a few days to prepare the goods, so he will first arrange for Andre and his goods to pass customs in these two days.

As soon as I arrived at the riverside, I saw a large number of trucks on the other side of the river, queuing up and waiting to pass the inspection.

Most merchants are accustomed to this scene. Teng Yue Company is the leader of Heihe border trade, and no one can shake this position.

The supplies Andrei, Sergei, Vishniak and others transported were basically the same, including wood, steel, fertilizers, industrial raw materials, etc.

Ivanov got a lot of special steel, various types of machinery, cars, and mine cars.

Affected by freezing precipitation, border trade was suspended for more than a month, with both sides hoarding a large amount of supplies.

I saw a large number of cars on the other side of the river loaded with various supplies, driving over the river. After unloading the goods, they loaded up the exchange goods and transported them back.

The river, which had been deserted a while ago, suddenly became lively.

Five days later, Alexander and Victor shipped over the machine tools Sheng Xiping wanted.

A large machine tool weighs one to two hundred tons and requires dozens of trucks to transport it after disassembly.

Moreover, the machine tools have to be mixed with scrap iron and transported together, so one machine tool has to be transported by hundreds of trucks.

As a result, the machine tool alone would have to be transported for several days.

The machine tools and scrap metal were shipped in, and they were marked on the bodies, making them easy to distinguish.

Wu Bingzhong and others mobilized hundreds of soldiers from the border defense to specifically load and unload machine tools. Sheng Xiping also arranged for loaders to unload scrap metal.

Mr. Yang took Lin Gong and others to the dock in plain clothes.

Lin Gong and other experts kept telling the soldiers to be careful not to damage the machine tools. That scene was extremely lively.

Alexander not only shipped the machine tool, but also included the drawings.

Here, the machine tools are loaded and transported, sent to the place, and manpower is organized for assembly and debugging. Then the debugging data is fed back to the other side of the Heihe River.

"Chief, there is news from Bingcheng. All the test data of the machine tool are very good.

Comrade Xiaosheng is amazing. These machine tools are not only 80% new, it is not an exaggeration to say they are brand new.

Even if we could buy these few sets of machine tools, the minimum cost would be tens of millions of dollars.

We got a big deal this time, and it's all thanks to Comrade Xiao Sheng. "

Lin Gong took the data fed back by Bingcheng and was as happy as a child.

These good things they dream of, but under the blockade of Western developed countries, they can't even buy parts.

Now, I bought several sets at once. The key is, the money spent was not much, and everyone felt like they were in a dream.

Hearing this, Mr. Yang nodded with a smile, "Xiao Sheng is a good comrade. He is capable, thoughtful, and stands upright. He is really good.

It's a pity that he is a little older. If he were younger, I would recruit him into the army and send him to a military academy for a few years to train him. "

Mr. Yang is very optimistic about Sheng Xiping. In his opinion, talents should be sent to military camps for training and to contribute to the country.

"Mr. Yang, if Xiping was younger, he wouldn't have achieved such an achievement." Wu Bingzhong heard from the side and couldn't help laughing.

When Yang Laoyi thought about it, he was right. The things Sheng Xiping did were really not something that a young boy could accomplish.

"Okay, then just pretend that I didn't say it, and remember to remind me later, and give people preferential treatment in terms of tariffs.

They are doing something for us, and they don't ask for any benefits. They also pay a lot of foreign exchange and take proper care of me. "

Mr. Yang and others stayed in Heihe for more than ten days. It was not until all the machine tools were transported that everyone left.

Before leaving, Mr. Yang also asked Sheng Xiping to help him pay attention.

If there is something good on the other side, such as a tractor with a turret, a big flower that can shoot down fighter jets, etc.

Regardless of whether it is flying in the sky or swimming in the water, as long as it is useful to us, no matter how much it costs, we must try our best to get it back.

"Xiping, grandpa is already this age and has no other pursuits. He just wants to get some small toys.

If you have the chance, you must help grandpa fulfill his wish. Mr. Yang said this while grabbing Sheng Xiping's hand before getting into the car.

When Sheng Xiping heard this, he really didn't know how to answer.

Old man, where are the toys you want? These are obviously big killers, right?
