Chapter 61 Talking about business with the director
Ergou and the beauty sat in the Xiangdu Hotel, ordered food, and then chatted and drank tea.
"Handsome guy, what's your name?" the beauty asked.
The two chatted all the way without asking each other, and they still didn't know each other's name. The beauty thought it would be better to ask, otherwise she wouldn't know what to call her next time they met.
"Tuesday Dog, what about you, beauty? What's your name?"
"What?" The beauty seemed not to hear clearly and asked with a strange expression: "You said your name is Tuesday Dog."
"That's right, Tuesday Dog."
The beauty's shoulders twitched again and again, trying her best not to laugh out loud. There is actually someone named Ergou in the world. Isn't this name so funny? The beauty is from the city and rarely hears such rustic names.
Yes, so it feels funny.
"Oh, my name is Yang Meiling."
While they were talking, the waiter brought them the two meat dishes and one vegetarian dish, as well as a bottle of beer. The two of them started eating while talking.
Not far from Ergou and the others, there was a table of people looking over here.
"Brother, it was the kid who beat me on the bus today..." A yellow guy pointed at Ergou and said, this bastard is the kid on the bus. He is the younger brother of the Dwarf Dog of the Overlord Gang in Willow Town.
"Boss, look..." The short dog on the side also saw Ergou.
"Damn it, it's a Tuesday dog, it's so damn close to the enemy."
Today, the local bully Wang Jun and the dwarf dog were discharged from the hospital. They planned to come in and have a big meal to get rid of bad luck, but unexpectedly they found their enemies.
"Boss, this kid has entered the city. It's an opportunity." The goat accompanying him said in a low voice.
"Haha, that woman is not bad. Boss, bring her here and enjoy her." Huang Mao kept saying that he is a very talented person.
The touban king touched the scar on his hand and said, "My hand was almost broken because of this. There is no good fruit for him to eat."
"It's the same on my butt. There are two big words on it. I will never let him go." Tugou also said the same thing. While talking, he touched his butt. There were dozens of stitches on it.
, lying down like two big centipedes.
After eating for half an hour, the meal was finally ready.
"Ergou, where do you plan to go next?"
Ergou was about to ask, but he didn't expect Yang Meiling to tell him in advance, so he asked: "Do you know how to get to the Agriculture Bureau? I plan to go there to find someone."
"The Agricultural Bureau has to go a few miles further, why don't I take you there? I'm free anyway, I'm so bored." Yang Meiling didn't go to work. She just came back from her hometown in the countryside today, and she doesn't want to go back to her home in the city just yet.
, because when I went back I was still sleeping and there was no place to go.
"Well, it would be best if someone leads the way."
"Walk."
"Walk."
After the two people paid the bill, they walked out and walked in the direction of the Agriculture Bureau.
The street was very lively, and no one said they wanted to take a car. It was a rare trip for Ergou to the city, and he just wanted to see more. A few miles of distance was really not a problem for Ergou, who was used to walking on mountain roads.
While chatting with the beautiful woman, the road became much closer and I arrived at the door of the Agriculture Bureau before I even realized it.
"Ergou, you go in alone, I'll wait for you at the door."
"Okay, just wait."
After Ergou finished speaking, he walked into the yamen of the Agriculture Bureau and asked several beauties before finding the director's office.
"Dong dong..."
"Come in."
Ergou opened the door and walked in.
"Who are you?"
"Oh, Director Chen, my name is Tuesday Dog, from Taohuagou, Liushu Town..."
Before Ergou finished speaking, he was interrupted by Director Chen: "Speak directly, what's going on? I'm very busy here."
Ergou thought to himself, it's okay for him to be an official. He didn't say anything and let him sit down. He didn't even let himself finish what he said. He wanted to leave just now, but then he thought, this time he was here to do something, and it was about peach blossoms.
I have the interests of all the villagers in mind, so I don't dare to be impulsive.
"Director Chen, I heard that you are anxious to get a batch of peaches. I have a way, so I came to find you."
"Do you have peaches? What I want is not just a few kilograms or hundreds of kilograms here and there. How many can you sell?" Director Chen didn't believe that such a young man could have so many peaches.
"There's not much. There should be several thousand trees and 10,000 kilograms."
"Eight, ** ten thousand catties?"
"That's right?"
"Sit, sit, sit..." Director Chen stood up and quickly pointed to a chair in front of his desk.
After Ergou sat down, Director Chen asked again: "Do you really have so many peaches?"
"Really, there are more than a thousand peach trees."
"Okay, okay, okay..." Director Chen said many good words in succession.
Bureaucracy, what a bureaucracy. Under the jurisdiction of this city, a dignified agricultural director didn’t even know that Taohuagou planted a large number of peaches, and even went all over the world to find sources of supply. No wonder the fruit farmers are having a hard time, with things like this
As long as the inactive officials are around, it’s no wonder that the peasants are not suffering.
"In this case, you can sell me all the peaches you have."
Director Chen's already dead heart came back to life. He called everywhere in the past half month, and either he said there were none or that there were at most dozens of trees, which simply could not meet the needs of the city's canneries. Key enterprises in the city
The cannery has recently taken on an export business and urgently needs tens of thousands of kilograms of peaches. This has made Director Chen anxious.
If this business is to be successful, not to mention reputation and political achievements, kickbacks and price differences will be considerable income.
"Director Chen, what price do you plan to offer?" Ergou asked, remembering Feng Mei's advice of one yuan per catty, but he did not dare to bring it up, so he first asked Director Chen what he meant.
"Ergou, purchasing peaches in large quantities will also increase the income of the villagers. Of course, it will be slightly cheaper than the market price."
After hearing this, Ergou's heart became cold. It was cheaper than the market price, so wouldn't he be losing money to death? He had promised the village chief that the price would not be lower than the price in Liushu Town, which was at least 40 cents per catty.
But I don’t know how much a pound of peaches sells in Shahe City. If I had known that Director Chen was going to say this, I might as well have asked first on the street.
"Now, what's the current market price?" Ergou asked tentatively, unsure. But this question also revealed that he didn't know the price.
"The market price is only about 90 cents." Director Chen sat behind his desk and straightened his belly.
Hearing this, Ergou felt a little relieved. According to this idea, he would at least make money. He didn't expect that the prices in the city and the town were so different. It seems that people in the mountains still have no economic sense. There is no news.
I'm not very well-informed either. No one has ever come to the market to sell peaches, and there are so many peaches in the town. No wonder the prices vary so much.
