Chapter 59 Talk to the Director

After eating for half an hour, the meal was finally ready.

"Ergou, where are you going next?"

Ergou was about to ask, but Yang Meiling said it in advance, so she asked: "Do you know how to go from the Agricultural Bureau? I plan to find someone there."

"The Agriculture Bureau has to go a few miles forward, or I will take you there, anyway, I'm so bored." Yang Meiling didn't go to work. She just came back from her hometown in the countryside today. She doesn't want to go back to the house in the city yet, because she still sleeps when she goes back and has no place to go.

"Okay, it's best if someone leads the way."

"Walk."

"Walk."

The two of them settled the bill and walked out and headed towards the Agricultural Bureau.

The streets were very lively, and no one said he wanted to take a bus. Ergou rarely came to the city. He just wanted to see more. A few miles were really not a problem for Ergou, who was used to walking on mountain roads.

While chatting with the beautiful girl, the road became much closer. Before I could feel it, I walked to the door of the Agricultural Bureau.

"Ergou, go in by yourself, I'll wait for you at the door."

"Okay, you wait."

After Ergou finished speaking, he walked into the Agriculture Bureau's yamen, asked a few beauties, and then he found the director's office.

"Dongdong..."

"Come in."

Ergou pushed the door and walked in.

"Who are you?"

"Oh, Director Chen, my name is Zhou Ergou, I am from Taohuagou, Liushu Town..."

Before Ergou could finish his words, he was interrupted by Director Chen: "Tell me, what's wrong? I'm very busy here."

Ergou thought to himself, it’s really okay to be a big shot. It’s okay if you don’t say that you can sit down, and you won’t finish your words. You wanted to leave, but then you thought that this time I was here to do things, which was related to the interests of all the villagers in Taohuagou, so I didn’t dare to act impulsively.

"Director Chen, I heard you were in a hurry to get a batch of peaches. Isn't there a way, so I found them."

"Do you have peaches? What I want is not a scattered pound or hundreds of pounds. How many can you sell it?" Director Chen didn't really believe that such a young man could have so many peaches.

"There are not many, thousands of trees, and about one hundred thousand kilograms should be available."

"What, about 100,000 pounds?"

"That's right?"

"Sit down..." 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?"

"It really is, there are more than a thousand peach trees."

"Okay, okay, okay..." Director Chen said many good words in succession.

Under the jurisdiction of this city, a dignified agricultural director didn't know that Taohuagou had planted a large number of peaches and went all over the world to find sources of goods. No wonder fruit farmers had a hard time.

"In this way, you sell me all the peaches in your hand."

Director Chen, who was already dead, came back to life again. He called everywhere in the past half month, either because there was no such thing as there were no trees, or because it could not meet the needs of the canned factories in the city. The canned factories in the city recently took over an export business and urgently needed tens of thousands of kilograms of peaches, which made Director Chen very anxious.

This business is about to be completed, let alone reputation and political achievements, kickbacks and price difference are a considerable income.

"Director Chen, what price are you planning to pay?" Ergou asked, remembering the one dollar per pound that Feng Mei told her, but she didn't dare to raise it, so she first asked Director Chen what she meant.

"Ergou, purchasing a large amount of peaches is also an increase in income for the villagers. Of course, it is slightly cheaper than the market price."

After hearing this, Ergou felt cold and was cheaper than the market price. Didn’t he lose to death? He promised that the village chief should not be lower than the price in Liushu Town, and at least 40 cents per kilogram, but he didn’t know how much peaches sold in Shahe City cost per kilogram. If he had known Director Chen would say this, it would be better to ask clearly on the street just now.

"Now, what is the market price now?" Ergou asked tentatively without any confidence. But this question just revealed the bottom of his unaware of the price.

"The market price is just like Jiu Mao." Director Chen sat behind the desk and stood up with a general's belly.

Hearing this, Ergou felt a little relieved. According to this, he would at least make money. Unexpectedly, the prices in the city and town were so different. It seems that the people in the mountains are still not economically conscious, and the news is not well-informed. No one has ever come to the city to sell peaches, and there are so many peaches in the town. No wonder the prices are so different.

Ergou wanted to agree to Director Chen's price, but remembered Feng Mei's explanation, gritted her teeth, and said in a very low voice: "Yes, you need one dollar per pound."

When Director Chen heard Ergou's words, he felt so happy.

The canning factory gave him a price of one yuan and two yuan. As long as he accepted the price himself, he could make 2 cents per catty while sitting, and the difference could make more than 10,000 yuan. In that era, more than 10,000 yuan was an amazing number.

"The price is acceptable, but if we don't pay the picking fee, we will send the car to load the goods, and ignore the others." Director Chen wanted to make 20 cents per pound, but the picking fee was not paid. The car transporting the goods was ready-made in the canning factory, so he didn't have to spend a little effort and got it for more than 10,000 yuan.

"No problem." Ergou agreed. He planned to let the villagers pick it by themselves and give the benefits of 20 cents to the villagers. He didn't want to make so much, and it would be enough to make 40 cents per pound in vain.

I soon signed a contract with Director Chen, set a picking date, and left a phone number to each other.

When Ergou took out his phone to leave the number, Director Chen showed a hint of surprise on his face, but it quickly disappeared. After all, there were too many mobile phones of the same style.

After leaving the Agricultural Bureau, Ergou was very happy. A stone finally fell to the ground. The contract in his pocket was covered with the red seals of the Agricultural Bureau and the canning factory. Can this be fake?

"Ergou, is the matter done?"

"Everything goes well, I'm leaving." Ergou was in a very good mood at this time and rushed back to report the good news. He got on the road for the first time and walked towards the street.

"Yang Meiling, wait, I want to go in and buy a mobile phone." After getting off the car, I walked towards a mobile phone store on the side of the road. Ergou thought that he could buy the mobile phone for the village chief and take the bus back.

"Buy a mobile phone, I'll help you choose." Meiling also walked in.

After comparing the price and choosing the styles, Ergou finally took a flip phone worth 1,888 yuan, which was a very popular style at the time.

"Try it first." Meiling is smarter and asked Ergou to try the performance and call quality of the phone first.

"Do you have a mobile phone card?" Meiling asked.
