Reborn back to 1986

Chapter 20: Making Money (1)
Naturally, Li Yan couldn't go to the appointment alone, so she called Cui Wenwu from home.

As a middleman, Zhao Jieli retired after pulling the thread, and rode his bicycle back home.

Four people from both sides stood on the side of the road, next to the gate of the school, and began to discuss business.One party wants to buy, and the other party wants to sell. Naturally, they hit it off, but the difference is in the price.

The two medicine merchants both have the surname Ma, and they are distant cousins. One is Ma Huaicai and the other is Ma Huailiang.They are all quite tall, 1.8 meters away, and they are all very strong. Cui Wenwu, who is 17 years old and weighs only 1.7 meters and weighs less than 120 catties, and Li Yan, who is [-] years old, stood in front of these two.

Don't look at the superior appearance, but the two brothers did not dare to underestimate the uncle and niece in front of them.At first, he thought that Zhao Li was joking with them, looking for two furry children to discuss business with them, but when the little one opened his mouth, he knew that he had missed his mark.

Li Yan knew that Cui Wenwu didn't know how to speak, so she ignored his questioning gaze, and directly said some polite words to the two brothers, and introduced herself and Cui Wenwu.

When the two brothers heard the little girl's clear voice, her words were clear and clear, not to be underestimated, unlike ordinary children, they cheered up and listened to her carefully.

"I've finished what my uncle said on his behalf. I wonder what the two uncles Ma think?"

The two brothers exchanged glances, and the elder brother Ma Huaicai said: "We understand what you mean, but the price of six cents per catty is already the highest price we can offer. If you don't believe me, you can ask Principal Zhao. This is also the price in the purchase contract."

When Cui Wenwu heard the sixty cents, his eyes lit up immediately, thinking that this time he was going to make a lot of money.He was about to nod at that time as if he was afraid that the other party would regret it again, but Li Yan pinched him hard on the back of the waist without a trace, and he almost jumped up because of the pain.

Li Yan was calm, with a sweet smile on her face, and said: "I know that the two uncles are good people, you can't lie to uncle and me. If the quantity is small, even if you give me two or three cents, it's not bad. But the problem is not that we have a large number. The whole school is not as large as ours. And this is not a one-shot deal. If the uncles want to buy any medicinal materials in the future, tell us, we will find someone to go up the mountain Go digging. Then we can both earn money, isn't it good to have a long-term cooperation like this?"

Ma Huailiang took the conversation and said, "Then how much catty can you provide at most?"

Hearing this, Li Yan was overjoyed and had a good heart, and on the surface he maintained a calm appearance before the collapse of Mount Tai like a little adult, and turned around to ask Cui Wenwu: "Old uncle, tell me what the hell is going on?" How many catties of medicinal roots can you have?"

Cui Wenwu hurriedly said: "Oh, we already have six or seven thousand catties in our hands. When the holiday is over, we will get another 4000 catties if there is no accident. The total is about eleven thousand catties. .”

Li Yandao: "Ah, how many catties are there? You two uncles, there are more than 700 students in our school. The task of each of our junior grades is ten catties, and the senior grades are fifteen catties. I don't care if I put it all together." I don’t really know how much it is, but it shouldn’t be as much as my uncle’s, right?”

Ma Huaicai nodded: "Yes, your school together weighs more than 8000 catties, which is indeed not as much as yours."

Li Yan smiled even sweeter: "Then tell me, adding another five cents per catty to my uncle is not too much, right?"

Ma Huailiang gave his cousin a wink, only they themselves knew how much they could earn for a pound of herbs.The pharmaceutical factory I contacted told me that as much as I wanted, the more the better.The unplanned 1 catties, if the negotiation is successful, will bring a lot of income, even if you add five cents, it is still too much money.

Compared with his cousin, Ma Huaicai took a longer-term perspective. If there is such a long-term partner to help them collect medicinal materials in the future, a big problem in terms of supply will be solved. The school has a lot of power to mobilize students, but it cannot be always Using the work-study program as an excuse, it is not bad to have one twice a year.At other times, we still have to think of other ways.

Li Yan was not in a hurry, and waited for the two to discuss the results.Within 5 minutes, the two brothers who had turned their backs turned around.

Ma Huaicai nodded helplessly, and said, "Okay then, let's pay according to your price. However, your quantity must be guaranteed."

Cui Wenwu said confidently: "No accident, absolutely no problem." The accident he mentioned, the other three people understood, meant that it was raining continuously and people couldn't go out to dig.The climate at this time will not encounter such a situation. It will rain for a day and a half at most, and the sky will clear up quickly.

"Well, it's settled like this. We'll collect all your medicinal materials, and you won't be allowed to sell them to others." Ma Huailiang naturally has his reasons for saying this. The two brothers are not the only ones who eat this job. I'm afraid that someone else will insert a stick in the middle.

Ma Huaicai also thought of this, and said to Cui Wenwu and Li Yan: "Why don't we collect your six thousand catties first, and then collect the rest with the school. Look, how about it? "

"That's good." Cui Wenwu has also learned a lot at the moment, and he is very happy in his heart, but on the surface he also holds the scene in a decent manner.

Li Yan naturally knew what the two brothers were worried about. At this time, there were not many people working in their profession. Afterwards, the competition would be fierce.She had personally seen two drug dealers beaten to death in order to compete for business in the village.You know, the large truckload of medicinal materials sent to the pharmaceutical factory cost tens of thousands of yuan less, and more than a dozen or 20 yuan.It was only then that she knew that making money by pounding medicinal materials.

Of course, that is in the future, and the price at this time is not so expensive.However, the money is real at this time.A popsicle costs five cents, and the creamy one is only two cents for pure ice.If this is put in 20 years, no one will bend down to pick up a dime on the road.

It is precisely because of the existence of profits that the rise of this business is driven.It's better to start early than late.With such an idea, the two brothers opened their mouths to accept these medicinal materials first.

Li Yan also knew that the price of sixty-five cents was not low.Talk to someone again, it is estimated that it will not be much higher.Besides, another partner might not be as reliable as the two brothers. After all, they both have contracts with the school, so Mianqiang can be regarded as a regular army.

Now that the price has been negotiated, the last thing left is to pay for the delivery.The two parties agreed that on the next day, that is, at nine o'clock in the morning on May and First, Cui Wenwu would pull the goods to the town, and Brother Ma Huaicai would find a car to transport them away.

On the morning of May 720st, Cui Wenwu hired the carriage of the old Qiao's house next door and took four trips to transport the 1000 kilograms of medicinal roots in the warehouse to the cart shop in the town.There are still more than [-] catties that have not been completely dried, and are waiting for the next batch to be sold together.
