Chapter 41
Chronology (8)
Last night, Liu Yong checked the pile of meat left by Lin Qiao and weighed it. It was exactly 200 kilograms, and each piece was exactly 1 kilogram. Not to mention how he divided it so accurately, he just said that this kind of meat cannot be pressed fresh.
Let’s calculate the price of meat. Nowadays, a pound of pork on the market costs 80 cents plus a meat stamp. Meat that doesn’t require stamps on the black market generally costs 1.5 yuan per catty for fat meat, and 1.2 yuan per catty for leaner meat.
Those mountain products such as fungus mushrooms are charged 18 cents per pound at the purchasing station, but they charge 25 cents per pound here.
Liu Yong and the others didn't sleep all night, and they carried it until morning without waiting for Lin Qiao. Although he was heartbroken, he didn't think anyone would just throw away 200 kilograms of meat and ignore it.
When Lin Qiao knocked on the door and came in, what she saw was a haggard man with stubble on his face and bloodshot eyes.
"Boss Liu, how's your discussion going?"
"I can't be the boss. You can call me Lao Liu or Liu Yong."
Liu Yong introduced the prices of meat and mountain products to Lin Qiao, and then continued:
"I don't make any money from you for these wild products, so I can give them to you at the original price. What do you think of the meat you brought out at 2 yuan a pound? I've seen it, the meat is all good meat, but it's not fat, it's lean meat.
It’s still cheaper.”
"I don't have fat meat, do you want animal fat? I have all kinds of lard, butter, and deer fat."
As he said that, he released another one-pound pile of animal fat.
"Comrade Lin, we may not be able to exchange so many supplies. I wonder if you will accept cash or various receipts?"
"I don't want cash, gold, silver, jewelry and the like are fine. If you don't have enough, I can give you a batch of supplies first, and you can go and exchange them yourself. I won't interfere. I just said that between now and the day after tomorrow, what can you do?"
Eat as much as you like."
"Comrade Lin, come with me. The warehouse is in the back room."
Liu Yong took Lin Qiao to the warehouse where supplies were stored. Pointing to the sacks on the left that were piled up to the roof, he said: "These are all the mountain products we have, including fungus and various mushrooms. The total is 5,000 kilograms. Those animal oils of yours
How to calculate it?"
"About 2 yuan a bottle. They are all packed in one pound. The ones just now were 100 bottles."
Lin Qiao didn't ask for much. Everyone he saw on the road looked like they were short of fuel and water, which was not easy.
"After all, we can still ask for 650 yuan of supplies, right?"
"Well, let's see what you want."
"Do you have any cotton, fabric, milk powder, etc.?"
Lin Qiao really didn't have any cotton. It was not difficult to grow cotton, but should the remaining straw be kept for the fire? Because of this, she had never grown cotton.
"There is no cotton, have you heard of down?"
Seeing that Liu Yong said he had never heard of it, Lin Qiao casually took out a 20KG down compression block, along with a roll of down fabric.
"Find someone who knows how to sew and thread and try it. This can be used as stuffing for clothes or quilts. As for this fabric, it is specially made for down products. If you use ordinary cloth, the wool will come out."
"I'll give you these. If you want them, I'll give them to you at the price of cotton."
Liu Yong didn't refuse. He called Shuan Zi in and asked him to take it out to find women who knew how to sew and thread to try it out more quickly. He also told him to make a waistcoat first and show it to him.
After seeing that he had finished arranging, Lin Qiao continued: "In addition to milk powder, do you want anything else?"
"If you want, goat milk powder will do."
Lin Qiao smiled and glanced at the warehouse, "I have cow, sheep, horse, camel, and deer milk powder. They are all packed in 1 catty and cost 3 yuan a barrel. Do you want all of them?"
"This" Liu Yong never thought that camel milk and deer milk could also be drunk. "You have quite a lot of varieties. I want 100 barrels of milk, 80 barrels of goat milk and 20 barrels of horse milk."
Lin Qiao's eyes twitched and she muttered in a low voice: "Actually, there are more than you think. There is white rat milk, and even I don't dare to drink it."
After releasing the quantity Liu Yong wanted, Lin Qiao began to look through the warehouse of her processing factory. After searching, rolls of fabric fell to the ground with various colors and patterns.
This was done when she was experimenting with what kind of cloth the processing factory could weave. At that time, she mainly wanted to add ningsi rattan to see if she could weave cloth.
The entire vine has a constant temperature of 20°C. If it could be woven into cloth, wouldn't it be a portable air conditioner?
The result was a failure. Now I suddenly thought of it and secretly reminded myself to find someone to try to see if it could be woven into cloth by hand.
"Comrade Lin, your cloth is quite expensive, isn't it?" Liu Yong saw these older cloths, and they were all brightly colored. He had never seen them before. They must be more expensive than the fine cloth, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to eat them.
.
"This roll is only 10 meters. It was produced when I was debugging the machine. It's cheap for you, 30 yuan per roll."
When Liu Yong heard this, he thought that this was a huge profit, but he would not remind Lin Qiao, so he hurriedly agreed and took the initiative to count, there were 72 volumes in total.
After doing some calculation, I now owe Lin Qiao 2,110 yuan.
Liu Yong called someone to accompany Lin Qiao to look at the other things in the warehouse to see if there was anything else she wanted. He said he wanted to pick up the things and left the warehouse. It probably wouldn't be that fast to collect the mountain goods.
It's snowing, so I can only ask people in other cities and counties to see if they have any stock.
Lin Qiao asked for another 2,000 kilograms of soybeans and 5,000 kilograms of corn kernels, as well as other miscellaneous grains such as black beans and mung beans, which totaled only 1,000 kilograms, so he also wanted them.
When Liu Yong came back with a box in his arms, he saw that most of the warehouse had been emptied, and after calculation, the amount still exceeded 4,290 yuan.
"Comrade Lin, you see, we don't have much liquidity on hand. If you want to change so much at once, we won't be able to get rid of the money."
He was also thinking that he had collected three months' worth of this warehouse, so he planned to wait until the weather got colder to make a profit.
"These things are not as easy to sell as your coarse grains. Once they are sold, you will at least double your profit. Don't pretend to be pitiful. Hurry and see what you want."
Liu Yong laughed and said how could there be so many, but he was still calculating in his heart.
"You can order more freeze-drying. That thing can last for at least 3 years."
Lin Qiao saw that he could not make up his mind. She happened to have too much freeze-drying and wanted to sell more. Who would have thought that the processing plant cannot process food? It would be a headache.
"Okay, then I'll take another 2,145 pounds of freeze-drying. That'll be just right."
"You want 3,000 pounds? I think it's quite tiring for you to carry a box. Don't let your trip go in vain."
Liu Yong smiled sheepishly, put the box in his arms on the table, opened it, and invited Lin Qiao to take a look.
In the box were a dozen small yellow croakers, as well as some jades and various jewelry.
Lin Qiao only took one, and then selected a pair of white jade bracelets that looked gentle and soft.
He glanced at Liu Yong and said again: "I still have plenty of goods. You can go and exchange more of what I want in the next two days. I'll come back the day after tomorrow."
After coming out of Liu Yong's place, Lin Qiao didn't go back to get the spaceship. She found a dead end that no one was paying attention to and got into it. She hailed a speed car and drove to a distant city.
In the next two days, Lin Qiao basically traveled to the larger cities in the east of Xia Kingdom, exchanging supplies and gold and silver jewelry in the same manner in each city.
She calculated that time was almost up before walking back.
Liu Yong has been busy collecting and exchanging goods these days. He put on the down vest that afternoon. It was light and warm. He had been thinking about replacing it for a long time. But ordinary fabrics really can't cover this down vest.
, and some fabrics need to be replaced.
After collecting more than 10,000 kilograms of various coarse grains prepared by Liu Yong, Lin Qiao replaced him with down at the price of 3 yuan per kilogram. The down fabric was basically half sold and half given away, and only cost 2 yuan per meter.
After making it clear that she would not come again in the future, Lin Qiao also mentioned that she was opening a store in the gold market, and then left.
