Chapter 168 Group Purchase of Harbour City: Qin Liangyu's Future Planning
Hong Chengchou was shaken in his heart.
Anyone who knows a little about history knows that Hong Chengchou was not a firm person to begin with. His personal integrity was actually very average, and he was unscrupulous in doing things. It is very normal for him to waver.
At heart, he is a Wang Jingwei-like figure.
But at this time, Hong Chengchou just felt that no matter how unpopular the court was, due to his relationship with Xujiazhuang, he had not yet turned hostile. Therefore, even if he wanted to surrender, he could not openly rebel.
He can only bury this seed in his heart for the time being and remain calm. When big changes come, he will definitely make a wise choice.
Before that, he only needs to increase the bargaining chip in his hand. As long as he makes great achievements, he may not have the opportunity to become the rotating chief consul of the Great Xu Empire in the future.
…
November 20th.
Although it is not an online shopping carnival like Double Eleven in modern society.
But for the members of the purchasing group, today is a day of crazy shopping and buying.
The business district in the west of the city covers an area of about 600,000 square meters and has more than a thousand shops. The shopping environment is much better than the wholesale market in the south of the city. It is also more suitable for bulk goods transactions. As long as you purchase more, the price
The prices are also favorable, but the wholesale market in the south of the city is more suitable for retail investors to buy in small quantities.
The members of the visiting purchasing group were obviously big customers.
In the General Military Store.
Half plate armor, buy it.
Alloy Yanling Dao and Zhanma Dao, buy them.
Sugar grenade, buy it.
There were also multifunctional alloy daggers, mechanical watches, telescopes, woolen coats, compressed biscuits, lighters, penicillin, Yunnan Baiyao, etc., and I bought more or less of them.
Each of them spent a lot of money, and there was even an atmosphere of comparison with each other.
Hong Chengchou said: "10,000 sets of half-body plate armor, 5,000 Yanling swords and 5,000 horse-cutting knives each, and 1,000 bicycles. Let's settle on this many for now."
Cao Wenzhao said: "Here comes 6,000 sets of half-plate armored wild goose feather knives and 3,000 Jinlong brand bicycles. I want to learn from the Tianxiong Army and build a mobile army that is half cavalry and half bicycles."
Yang Yufan said: "Sugar grenades are half a silver dollar. Okay, give me 300,000. This thing is much better than the shabby firearms of the imperial court. I will also bring 3,000 Jinlong brand bicycles. From now on, my Tongzhou Army will also have riders."
The ability of a bicycle to chase down enemies.”
Wang Hongdao: "My Tianjin Army cannot be inferior, but powerful weapons are not enough. I have to train my Tianjin Army to become the second Xu Jiajun. I want the sons to grow muscles and the ability to face Jiannu."
Go ahead! 200,000 sugar grenades, 100,000 meters of barbed wire, canned ham, canned pork, and canned fish for lunch. Even if they are not cheap, I will buy 1 million of them! I will also build a large chicken farm in Tianjin.
We need to build a strong army!"
Zuo Liangyu had to say: "Let's get a 5,000 set of half-body plate armor and Yan Ling Dao, 100,000 hand grenades, 500 Jinlong bicycles, no, buy 1,000, 50 mechanical watches, and 30 telescopes."
500 coats, 1,000 lighters..." His original plan was to buy more luxuries for personal enjoyment, and he did not plan to spend more on the big soldiers, but now so many of his colleagues have the ability to strengthen the army.
According to the plan, he cannot appear too outstanding or out of place.
…
On the other side of the business district.
There was a member of the purchasing group who was very unique because she spent most of the day shopping with a few followers and only ordered these things:
There are 10,000 sets of half-body plate armor alloy wild goose feather knives, and the order amount is 300,000 silver dollars.
There are 100,000 sugar grenades, and the order amount is 50,000 silver dollars.
20,000 sets of military training clothes (10,000 sets of winter clothes and 10,000 sets of summer clothes), with an order amount of 150,000 silver dollars.
Several penicillin Yunnan Baiyao bandages, the order amount is 30,000 silver dollars.
All of the above added up to a total of 530,000 silver dollars. I haven't bought other things, such as bicycles.
It can be said that I am very prudent and thrifty. I only buy some products that I need, and for the rest I just take a look and go, or shop around.
This naturally caused dissatisfaction among the entourage.
"Mom, buy a hundred bicycles. They will definitely be useful. A mechanical watch costs thirty or fifty yuan. You must buy at least ten telescopes. There is also a lighter, which is much easier to use than a fire sickle. The price is only three silver dollars.
One, buying five hundred of them is just over a thousand silver dollars, and Fengyi has been married to me for many years, and she doesn’t even have a decent dress. Buy her two nice woolen coats, and I have to give them to you too.
Buy a few and be filial to you."
This middle-aged man in his thirties kept whispering in the ear of this healthy old woman, even a little bit coquettishly, no, a mama's boy's tone, he kept begging to please, hoping that the old woman
Neng let go, shook her arm and said, "Mom, it doesn't cost much. There are nearly four million silver dollars in the deposit certificate."
"No, you can't buy unnecessary things!"
The old woman still refused to let go and said: "Even if it is something you need, you have to look at how much you need it and then shop around to buy it."
"Old madam, what do you want to buy, sir? How about I pay for it? It won't cost much anyway." Deng Qi, the general who had been following behind like a dragster, came up and offered to pay the bill.
"Go away! Stay away from my mother, you don't need to pay."
The middle-aged man Ma Xianglin didn't appreciate it at all, but wanted to drive Deng Qi away with a dark face.
"My son must not be rude."
Qin Liangyu had no choice but to criticize: "Master Deng is a guest and a colleague of mine, how can he be so disrespectful?"
"Mom, this guy has bad intentions. He's so young, but he actually wants to get close to you." Ma Xianglin had already seen Deng Qi's thoughts and intentions, so he was extremely displeased with him.
"Master Deng, I wonder if you can avoid it? My son is too presumptuous. I want to become a monk. I will teach you a lesson. It really makes you laugh."
Qin Liangyu's face was livid, and he was about to discipline his son. He was so frightened that Ma Xianglin knelt on the ground. When Deng Qi saw this, he had to cup his hands and said: "Old madam, your son is not wrong. It was Deng who was abrupt. I will say goodbye. Madam, if you need anything, you can come at any time."
Find Deng."
Deng Qi left helplessly.
"Everyone is gone, get up quickly."
Qin Liangyu glanced at his son who was still kneeling on the ground and said helplessly.
"Yes yes yes."
Ma Xianglin became very happy. It turned out that his mother was not really angry, she was just trying to scare him.
Then the group visited many shops and inquired about the prices of a large number of goods, but very few orders were placed. They continued shopping until three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and only bought an additional 30,000 silver dollars worth of goods, all of which were hoes.
Agricultural items such as sickles, improved seeds, pesticides and pesticide sprayers.
But his son Ma Xianglin did not dare to express his opinion.
Daughter-in-law Zhang Fengyi could only look at the woolen coats, women's watches, life-size glass mirrors and other products in the window from time to time, showing a longing look, but she did not dare to ask for them.
The two nephews, Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming, did not dare to put forward any opinions. Even though they moved their mouths countless times to propose buying a bicycle, they swallowed their words again.
Fortunately, Chen Dingcheng, the shopping guide who had been accompanying the purchase, noticed that Qin Liangyu placed significantly fewer orders. When compared with other shopping guides, the results were as low as one million silver dollars, and as many as two to three million silver dollars.
There is also a member of the purchasing team named Zu Dabi, who has been emptied by the shopping guide and has spent all his money.
What about Chen Dingcheng? His performance is only over 560,000 silver dollars. You can tell that he is ranked last even without looking at it.
How could he explain this to the past? What would his colleagues think of him?
After thinking about it, he had to ask next to Qin Liangyu: "Old Madam, I see that you are hesitant in front of many commercial goods. You want to buy but don't dare to buy. You need it but don't dare to ask for more. Old Madam, I don't know.
What worries make you so troubled?"
Brush~
The ears of Ma Xianglin, Zhang Fengyi, Qin Yiming, and Qin Gongming all stood up.
Asked.
The question they had been holding back for a long time was finally asked by someone. It felt so refreshing.
"I..."
Qin Liangyu opened his mouth, but immediately shook his head, obviously not wanting to tell the reason.
"Old madam, although I am a shopping guide, to a certain extent, I represent Xujiazhuang. If I can't solve your concerns, you can feedback the problem to Xujiazhuang. Xujiazhuang will always have a way to solve it. You don't have to hold it in your heart." Chen Dingcheng
Said again.
"Yes, mother, tell me, what are you worried about?" said his son Ma Xianglin.
"Mom, if there is any problem, we should face it together, you don't have to bear it alone." Zhang Fengyi said.
"Auntie, tell me."
"Auntie, what's the problem that prevents you from spending so much money?"
Nephews Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming said one after another.
"Hey, we Shizhu are too poor."
Qin Liangyu sighed and said: "Shizhu has eight mountains, one water and one land, but there are 60,000 households and more than 300,000 people. The output of the fields is scarce, and there is not enough food every year. Young people have no way to survive, so they can only join the army and join the Baigan
Soldier, now that the war is over and we all have to go back, how can we support the people and ourselves? How can we rely on the more than three million silver dollars we earned this time? How much can we get if we divide this money into 300,000 people? Wait for this money
Once the money is spent, what should we do?”
She finally expressed her worries.
Point out a most realistic problem.
Yes, although the Shizhu Land is small, it is a rare paradise in Sichuan, which has experienced many years of chaos. A large number of people came to Shizhu to seek refuge. Although this place is poor, they can survive in troubled times.
As a result, the small stone pillar carried a population that exceeded its carrying capacity, and Qin Liangyu was so popular among the people that even though peace has returned to most parts of Sichuan, the people of the stone pillar rarely leave.
This has naturally become a worry that weighs on Qin Liangyu's heart. It is impossible to drive away some people, and it is impossible to live a life of luxury and lust without being separated from the people. Qin Liangyu will not regard the people as a burden, but as relatives who must share the joys and sorrows.
, so even if she earns 3.959 million silver dollars this time, most of it will be spent on the people of Shizhu.
ashamed.
After hearing Qin Liangyu's words, Ma Xianglin, Zhang Fengyi, Qin Yiming, and Qin Gongming were very ashamed and ashamed.
Shopping guide Chen Dingcheng couldn't help but feel moved.
He bowed deeply and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I will report this issue to you immediately. I believe that with the resources and wisdom of Xujiazhuang, Madam's concerns can be resolved."
…
soon.
Xujiazhuang's senior management held a discussion meeting, focusing on how to solve Shizhu's development dilemma.
But the conclusion reached is very pessimistic. It is impossible for a place like Shizhu to develop.
Because this kind of mountainous area requires resources but no resources, no cultivated land, and the population burden is still so huge, it will not even be possible to develop in hundreds or thousands of years.
"Not necessarily. I don't think so. Don't draw conclusions prematurely."
The owner of the village, Xu Yuan, shook his head, not planning to give up just like that.
He made a special trip back to modern society, searched a large amount of relevant information on the Internet, and finally discovered two advantages of stone pillars:
One is the large population.
Second, it is right on the edge of the Yangtze River and has the advantage of water transportation.
Now I'm afraid some people will be dismissive. If these are considered advantages, there are too many places with similar advantages. It is a daydream to develop and get rid of poverty based on these two points alone.
But Xu Yuan thinks it’s okay!
Shizhu has a large population, which can be used to develop the textile industry and garment industry. Sichuan is rich in Shu brocade, so there is no need to worry about raw materials. Shizhu only needs to use a large amount of Shu brocade to make a variety of ready-made clothes with the help of sewing machines, and then send them down the Yangtze River.
Selling ready-made clothes to the Jiangnan region, to the north through canals, or even to overseas markets by sea can not only create a large number of jobs, but also bring a large amount of income.
Xu Yuan believes that the textile and garment industry alone is enough to help Shizhu escape poverty and become rich.
In addition, there are many Shizhu Mountains, which can be used for tea garden planting, medicinal material planting, bee hive honey collection and other special agriculture. Xujiazhuang can help solve sales and bring a lot of profits.
In short! As long as your mind is flexible, there are always more solutions than difficulties.
So when Xu Yuan personally formulated the "Shizhu Poverty Alleviation Plan", Chen Dingcheng handed it to Qin Liangyu and told her that the village owner had personally helped formulate the plan.
After reading the contents of the plan, Qin Liangyu trembled all over and shed tears. After a long time, he suppressed his excitement and solemnly made a request: "Guide Chen, I would like to see the owner of your village and thank him in person. I don't know if I can do it for you."
