Chapter 1121 Fake Goods 2
"So, Jiang, you must take care of it, and you can take care of it." Kadanfu said slowly.

To be honest, these businessmen act like guerrilla fighters all day long, with no rules at all. Coupled with the recent chaos in Moscow, these small vendors have been targeted, after all, they have money.

Jiang Yan is different. He is the biggest trader in Moscow. Naturally, he knows a lot about these traders. To put it bluntly, Jiang Yan knows exactly how many Chinese people are selling goods in Moscow.

So he could only find Jiang Yan, and only Jiang Yan could solve this problem.

"I can let Vladimir help you." Kadanfu said suddenly.

Jiang Yan immediately rolled his eyes at Kadanfu in anger, "Kadanfu, have you thought about what you said? Can you give some constructive suggestions?"

Vladimir was Kadanf's former subordinate, and now he is the Public Security Chief of Moscow. Using him to deal with a bunch of profiteers is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. What's more, isn't he just cheating his fellow villager?
Jiang Yan talked about him, but Ka Danfu didn't get angry. He just laughed twice and stopped talking.

However, Jiang Yan lowered his head and began to think.

Now Jiang Yan was feeling angry and annoyed. He was angry that these people in his own country really didn't give him face. To be honest, he had never thought about managing other small traders, but now it seemed that he had to do so. He couldn't let him be the scapegoat, right?

If these small traders destroy his pot and use his name, they will have to bear his wrath and accept his jurisdiction, otherwise he will have to destroy their pots.

However, Jiang Yan also thought it through. In fact, managing these small traders and preventing them from selling fake goods is beneficial to him and even the whole of China. The reason why he felt that the trader's business could only last until 1993 and then declined rapidly was because these small traders sold fake goods, causing the whole of Russia to boycott Chinese goods, which made Chinese goods lose their market in Russia.

If he can eliminate the problem of selling fake goods, to put it bluntly, he can continue this business and even turn it into a serious international trade.

Russia's biggest shortcoming today is light industrial products, which has not been made up in later generations. China is just starting out, and the most common products in the country are light industrial products that do not require high technical levels, so this business should be able to continue.

The result is that a group of short-sighted small traders who sell counterfeit and shoddy goods have destroyed the Russian market and even ruined the reputation of the Chinese.

"Okay, I'll handle this matter, and I'll give you an explanation." Jiang Yan gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, just let me know if you need anything," Kadanfu said.

"Okay, sure." Jiang Yan answered perfunctorily.

The gang of small traders were also Chinese. He really didn't want to rely on Russia's power, especially official power. He didn't want to bully people or be a traitor. Anyway, he felt that it was not right. He felt like a villain.

Besides, he could handle it himself. There were four or five hundred people under Alov and his own men in total. It was just to deal with some small traders. Even if the situation got out of hand, it would be enough.

"Da Mao, ask Huang Yang, Sun Xiaoguang, and Zhao Hongqi to come over to meet him. Oh, by the way, call Cao Bin as well." After returning to his residence, Jiang Yan spoke to Xu Damao, who was leisurely drinking coffee in his room.

"Oh, okay." Seeing Jiang Yan's unfriendly expression, Xu Damao quickly responded.

Although Ye Lina is the person in charge of Jiang Yan's trading company, she is only responsible for communicating with the upper management of Damao. The specific affairs are still handled by Huang Yang, Sun Xiaoguang, and Zhao Hongqi. "How much do you know about counterfeit and shoddy goods?" Jiang Yan asked directly after several people came over.

The three of them looked at each other, and then Huang Yang, who had spent the longest time with Jiang Yan, spoke.

"Boss, as far as I know, many of their products come from the Astai Market."

The largest Chinese goods market in Russia, Astai, is simple in appearance, but the rent is very high. The annual rent and various "benefits" and "protection fees" of the store, which is built on two old containers, total about 50 yuan. However, compared with the profit of the business, these "small amounts of money to get rid of Russians" are no longer in the calculation of the "traders".

Data shows that the trade volume between China and Russia was US$2000 billion in 80, while the highest trade volume during the Soviet era was only US$46 billion. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the trade peaked at US$1993 billion in 72.8. In 2000, China's exports to Russia were US$22.3 billion, of which clothing exports were about US$10 billion and shoes were US$3.2 million, accounting for 60% of the total exports.

The $22.3 billion in exports included $10 billion in private exports. In other words, almost half of China's exports to Russia in 2000 were completed by Chinese private enterprises and self-employed individuals. Obviously, Chinese self-employed businessmen in Russia, or those international "traders", have made great contributions.

Later, due to the greed of some people, inferior goods were sold as good ones, prices were randomly marked, and counterfeit goods were sold, which seriously damaged the reputation of Chinese goods. This also directly led to a decline in trade volume. Data from the Heilongjiang Statistical Yearbook also confirmed that the growth of Sino-Russian border trade reached its peak in 1993 and then began to decline. Russia's share in China's foreign trade began to decline in 2000, and in 2003 it was only 1.9%, only half of the 1990% in 3.7.

Jiang Yan nodded and told them the news he got from Kadanfu, emphasizing the harm of these counterfeit goods.

After hearing what Jiang Yan said, they realized how much harm these small traders could cause to them. The anger in their hearts was even three times stronger than Jiang Yan's.

For Jiang Yan, being a profiteer is just one of his many businesses, and its position in his entire business empire is not even one-tenth. But for Huang Yang and others, being a profiteer is everything to them.

Their interests and stage are all in the profiteering business. If the profiteering business collapses, they will lose everything: money, career, and opportunity to display their talents. All will be gone, turned into nothingness and become ashes.

"Boss, why don't I find our brothers? If anyone dares to sell fake goods, we will deal with them directly. No one in Moscow dares to do this." The hot-tempered Zhao Hongqi spoke first.

This guy was recruited directly by Jiang Yan from among the profiteers. He has more than a dozen brave and fighting brothers under him. Before, he was just doing small business, but after following Jiang Yan, his business increased exponentially. Now he is quite famous among the profiteers in Moscow. Everyone who sees him has to call him "Master".

"Okay, shut up! Fighting and killing all day long, what a mess." Jiang Yan scolded.

"What kind of help do you need from the country?" Cao Bin looked at Jiang Yan and said.

"I want to establish a semi-national business alliance in Moscow, take over all the goods of the flower growers in Moscow, solve their transportation problems, goods problems, and remittance problems, and turn small-scale trade into formal national trade."

"I will report to the higher-ups and can support you if necessary." Cao Bin said.

Jiang Yan didn't say anything, but nodded.
