The great hero of the Silk Road, starting from a farm farmer

Chapter 212: Buying meat from the Xifan people and then selling it to them?What a good business!
"My lord Yungu, are you really going to buy a large amount of our cattle and sheep? After winter is over, can the cattle and sheep trading still be carried out?" After figuring out the transaction form, Song Yingkui asked someone to make a list in advance of a large amount of cattle and sheep that would be purchased at the market. He summoned the Xifan envoy who was still in Taoyang City and handed it to him a list of goods, asking him to take it back and make preparations in advance, so as not to have nothing to trade when the market opened.Holding the cargo list in his hand, the Xifan envoy asked his doubts.

"All the goods on the list are goods that we have purchased for a long time. You can organize them in large quantities. Also, if you look at the things that our official Tian Shun Gong Company in Yungu Army wants to sell, you must have an idea in mind. "

Beef and mutton are difficult to preserve, and it is unrealistic to drive live cattle and sheep to Dazheng to sell them, but we have the means to can them.Due to packaging cost constraints, canned luncheon meat cannot currently be exported in large quantities. However, there is also demand for meat in Yungu, so it is not a problem to purchase large quantities of cattle and sheep all year round.Recently, there has been a breakthrough in the technology of the glass factory, and mass production of glass containers is just around the corner. Once the glass containers come out, the export of canned luncheon meat will not be a problem.

The reason why Song Yingkui believes that there is no problem in exporting cans in glass containers is that glass is considered to be of high value in this era.As long as the value of glass is considered high, the price of the packaging can be added to the glass can containing luncheon meat, and then the recycling price of the glass can is determined based on the cost.Dealers will be interested in participating in the sales chain of canned luncheon meat. They can not only sell cans but also recycle cans and bottles.For canned users, the cost of eating cans is relatively high, but if the bottles are resold, the actual cost is the price of the ingredients themselves.

"Your Excellency Yungu, your sales regulations say that you will use money to buy our goods first when the time comes. When the time comes, we will buy goods from you. You will not increase the price arbitrarily, right? Can we do business between us? , mainly barter?" After reading the document, the envoy from Xifan expressed his most worrying concerns.Money is something that is useful and sometimes not, which may not be reassuring.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that as long as the goods purchased by Tianshun Gongxing will be priced in advance, there will be no temporary changes. We will buy your goods with cash first, just to let you have our money in your hands, which is convenient Settlement can also facilitate the businessmen of both parties to do business in the market. By the way, all your merchants can directly trade with Tian Shun Gong Bank to exchange money for the goods marked on the receipt! "

First, use cash to purchase large quantities of goods from the Western Fan officials. This is Song Yingkui's idea of ​​solving the lack of liquidity in the market trade.Compared with Dazheng's low demand for foreign goods except horses, Yungu's demand for goods here is not only sensitive materials such as horses, but also other non-sensitive bulk goods, which can at least ensure the smooth operation of the market trade. There is no shortage of liquid currency.

"Your Excellency Yungu, can you guarantee the quantity of goods you want to sell? If you set a low price but the quantity is small, and then use the hands of private merchants to increase the price, we will still suffer a loss." Xifan The envoy looked like a shrewd businessman, paying close attention to the details of the trade.

"Except for silk, sugar, and tea, we have sufficient supply of other goods. Even if there is a shortage of goods shipped to the market, we will use gold and silver to recycle the iron money used to buy your goods, or arrange to replenish the goods. In order to meet the transaction needs. In the way of buying and selling, I, Yungujun, will uphold fairness and will never let you suffer." What we earn is the premium of the goods, and we are not using cast iron coins to grab goods. Are you worried? A yarn.

After hearing Song Yingkui's assurance, the Xifan envoy's expression softened, and he said with a smile: "With your promise, I can rest assured to deliver the mission to the peak. Just use as little silk, sugar, and tea as possible. These goods You don't produce too much, as long as you don't have too many other goods. It doesn't matter if your iron money is very good and you can keep some in your hands as cash, but the more goods, the better. By the way, I heard that you also produce goods here. A kind of spirit? Can you add wine to the supply list?"

liquor?Yungu's potato wine brewed using the liquid method has been struggling to sell due to its bad taste. Besides, potatoes are also a grain product, so producing too much will still occupy the ration quota.Therefore, it has not been produced in large quantities, and it is mainly used as a reserve of medical alcohol.The potato production was large this year, so selling some wine to Xifan was not a problem. Song Yingkui casually agreed to the request of the Xifan envoy.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Haixibao Trading Market officially opened. The original plan of both parties was to conduct mutual trade for only five days.As a result, after the port was opened, the Xifan people strongly requested more time, because they still had a large number of cattle and sheep that had not yet arrived at Haixi Fort, and it lasted ten days before it ended.

The people of Xifan were not satisfied with this, and demanded that a market be opened once a month in the future to meet the trade needs of both parties.

Since the business is doing well, just open it once a month. If you don’t make money, will you be a bastard?
"Second Grandpa, why are there so many canned goods among the goods that need to be replenished for Xifan? I remember that the canned goods are not in the directory?" Since there are too many sheep coming from Xifan, Tian Shungong has prepared the goods here. There was so little that Xifan had a lot of cash balance in hand. They felt that it was not cost-effective to use gold and silver to make up for the price, so they made a list and asked Yungu to use goods to make up for it.Looking at the list made by the people from Xifan, Song Yingkui was a little puzzled, why is there such a thing as canned food?They want a lot.

"Hey! When we were collecting goods, Xueyong said that there were a lot of cans in the warehouse, and he wanted to see if he could take them to the market to try. If he could sell them, it would be a huge addition to the warehouse. I asked him to carry some over. A high price was set at the shopping mall! As soon as the feudal lords heard that this thing could be put down, they tasted it and thought it tasted very good. It was sold out all of a sudden. No, it was specially listed on the replenishment list. Come out. After all, the feudal lord has never seen the world, and he is still rushing to get such unpalatable food at a high price." The second grandfather told the story of the adventure of selling cans with interest. In fact, he also couldn't figure out why the people of Xifan I can't help but love this thing.

The cans pressed in the warehouse are specially made to ensure supply with extremely bad taste.With the harvest of food, the people in the Yungu area were no longer interested in this stuff, and the guaranteed cans in the military industrial and commercial stores were unsaleable.Originally, Song Yingkui was planning to improve the taste of canned food and seriously develop the canned food industry. Who would have expected that the second uncle and the second grandpa would be so talented that they took this stuff to the Haixibao Forgery Market to sell it, and found customers.

It seems that in the future, in addition to canned luncheon meat with normal flavors, we will also consider providing a canned production line for the Xifan market to meet the special taste needs of users.

Selling cans to Xi Fan is great, but isn't this just selling beef and mutton from them at a low price, and then selling it to them in cans at a high price?Where can I go to find such a good sheep shearing opportunity?
