Chapter 200 199 Choosing Wood

Barley tea is relatively popular in East Asia. There are reasons for this due to dietary structure and national culture. I will not go into the details.

Tang Zhitong didn't just say that he likes to drink it. This thing has a special burnt taste and it tastes really good. It is a good substitute when tea is not available.

Park Bucheng... Bah, Park Dacheng is a good comrade. By the time Tang Zhitong returned home with Tang Wenbang, Park Dacheng had already placed three kilograms of barley tea at Tang Wenbang's house.

According to Tang Gang, Park Dacheng never mentioned money.

Tang Zhitong was not very short of money, so he took out a handful of money, took out three pieces of one piece, and asked Tang Gang to hand it over to Park Dacheng tomorrow, hoping that he would use the money where needed...

Although Tang Gang kept saying that it would not use so much, Tang Zhitong insisted that this was all. This was definitely not Tang Zhitong's stupidity and generosity.

If you want to take it, you must first give it. This truth remains unchanged.

Three yuan isn't much, but it's very cost-effective to make a friend and lay a good foundation for possible transactions in the future.

Tang Zhitong had three-yuan banknotes and a Big Black Ten in his hand, but he was reluctant to use them first.

Due to the limited printing level, these two denominations of banknotes were printed by Lao Su from the north. The relationship between the two families went from close to tense, and finally broke down. These two banknotes also embarked on the road to be withdrawn and destroyed.

The destruction was not because Lao Su's printing skills were not good, but because the country was worried about overprinting and sending it to the country through other channels due to a series of problems. Of course, there were also conscious reasons. Everyone knows it, but it is inconvenient to say more about it.

The above idea was not informed to the people, but a gradual recycling approach was adopted, that is, once these two banknotes entered the banking system, they would no longer flow into the market. Over the years, these two denominations of banknotes became less and less. The less it is, the more valuable it is. It is a financial product suitable for long-term holding. Among them, the Big Black Ten is the best, starting with a 10,000-fold increase in value.

After a few simple words, Tang Zhitong went back to his room to sleep.

After two days of contact and understanding, Tang Zhitong felt that the forest farm would be a good unit in the next few years. However, there is no electricity here, and the cost of pulling wires is too high, so using power generation equipment has become the first choice.

Electricity is limited to production, but kerosene is still the main source of life, so I go to bed early here to save fuel.

After breakfast the next day, Tang Zhitong followed his uncle to select wood.

Due to the limited budget of the Escort Department, Tang Zhitong first inquired about the price of logs with Tang Wenbang.

The price of logs is not set by the forest farm at will, and the price has little to do with market demand. Instead, the forest farm makes slight fluctuations based on the "national timber ex-factory price". The national timber ex-factory price is also the guide price. This is the main premise.

Next, there is subdivision. First, lumber of a tree species, diameter, and length is defined as a standard product, with a benchmark of 100 (not yuan), and then various specifications of lumber are priced based on the log price difference rate. There are four types of log price difference rates: tree species price difference rate, length price difference rate, diameter grade price difference rate and grade price difference rate.

The forest farm here divides the tree species into two categories: coniferous and broad-leaved. Of course, Tang Zhitong is the better choice than larch. Although it is more expensive, it is stronger and more durable. It can be used to fight on the mail truck, and it will probably be used until the mail truck is retired. .

The standard length was 4 to 5.8 meters. Tang Zhitong decided on the length and moved it down one step above the standard level. It was too long and was inconvenient to lift in and out of the mail truck.

The diameter is 20-28 cm standard. After Tang Wenbang understood the needs and budget of the Escort Department, he helped plan the usage of various specifications. Use the large diameter for the board, use the standard for the frame, and ignore the small diameter. Bring that thing. It is more suitable to make pit wood, pile wood, purlin posts and purlins.

The abacus crackles and clicks, and the price is half cheaper than Sijiucheng!

There’s more money in the budget again! This whole thing cannot be wasted. Excluding the reserved labor costs, Tang Zhitong added some red pine. This stuff is very suitable for making furniture. The tables and chairs in the canteen and office of the Escort Department can be replaced.

It is said that the price here is half cheaper than that in Sijiucheng. Many people may not believe it, but there are several links missing.

For example, this side of the forest farm is a logging area. From the mountain to the foot of the mountain, the ex-factory price of second-class coniferous logs with a length of 2 to 3.8 meters and a diameter of 20 to 28 centimeters is 71 yuan per cubic meter.

The difference between the settlement price at the lumber yard and the ex-factory price in the logging area does not include the price difference. The settlement price per cubic meter of logs is based on the ex-factory price in the logging area plus 42 yuan. At this time, the price is 113 yuan per cubic meter, which is the supply price. .

After the logs are transported to the station, they are unloaded and stored. When they arrive at the lumber factory, they become wholesale prices. Generally, an additional 20 yuan per cubic meter is added. At this time, the price is 133 yuan per cubic meter.

The wood factory calls the retail price externally, and there is a price difference between wholesale and retail. This price difference is generally 7.5% of the wholesale price. At this time, the price has reached 143 yuan per cubic meter.

71/143=0.4965...half cheaper!

Of course, the price increases in all links from the logging area to the retail end are not arbitrary. They are determined by comprehensive consideration of factors such as circulation taxes, actual transportation and miscellaneous charges, interest, losses, management fees, and profits.

After settling the account, Tang Zhitong followed Tang Wenbang to look at the logs. The logs were very good and had been properly dried. However, there were too many logs of this size in the lumber yard. In order to make room for logs of other sizes, they had not been transported there.

"Uncle, I have to go to the city again and ask us to send money over there." After figuring out the calculation, Tang Zhitong said to Tang Wenbang with a note recording the price and bank account information.

The amount this time is a bit large. The city bureau has supervision over the use of funds. Even if there are people on Fangyuan, it is impossible to give cash to Fangyuan casually. The necessary procedures must still be completed. You read that right, there is a public-to-public fight at this time. The payment will be made, but it will not arrive immediately.

"Well, go ahead." Tang Wenbang nodded, this is business.

"I may have to stay in the city for two days. I'll come back after everything is taken care of." Tang Zhitong actually wanted to visit the riverside and use the space to do something.

"Then go home and get some food before leaving." Tang Wenbang said and stood up to accompany Tang Zhitong back.

"No, I'm not the only one here this time. They are involved in unblocking the railway. We have food stamps with us. The unit will reimburse them all. Let's save some money for our family." Tang Zhitong made up a reason. There was not enough food. Save if you can.

"Then... ok. Pay attention to your own safety." Tang Wenbang instructed.

"Don't worry, I have you with me." Tang Zhitong said, patting the shoulder strap.

This time when I went to the city, I was still looking for Su Xiao. By the way, Su Xiao asked me to go to his house for dinner when I came back. Tang Zhitong readily agreed.

This time when he went to the city, Tang Zhitong chose the waterway for the purpose of inspecting the log transportation route. The raft was not fast, but it was more stable. Tang Zhitong was sitting in the stern of the boat writing a draft telegram. He would soon send a letter and telegram to Fangyuan, telling him the account number and amount, and also asking him to bring some more cash.

Last night's visit was not just a permission to get out of the logging area, but also involved transporting logs from the forest farm to the station, which involved a freight issue.

　Double monthly pass next week, shamelessly book in advance, thank you all
