Rebirth: Go back to 1991 and become the richest man
Chapter 32: Futures Fruits
Li Yi has been thinking about making money for several days!
At present, he has a complete plan in his mind!
He is indeed going to do fruit business, he did not lie about this, but it is not an ordinary fruit business, but futures fruit.
Of course, people nowadays are more conservative and honest, and they pay attention to the exchange of money and goods, so they do not have the concept of futures!
So what is futures?
Futures are a kind of contract transaction. Unlike the spot goods that pay money and deliver goods, the time to get the goods in futures can be one day, one week, one month, or even one year!
As for why to go to Yandong City, the reason is very simple, because Yandong City’s apples will experience a roller coaster-like ups and downs this year!
Li Yi once remembered that in this summer, a large number of fruits in Yandong City have achieved a bumper harvest, including apples.
Due to the concentrated listing of apples, a large number of apples are unsalable. The price of apples per catty in the early stage dropped sharply from the original 20 cents per catty to two cents per catty and could not be sold.
There are so many apples that every fruit farmer has a large backlog of fruits, so they can only let the middlemen lower the price at will!
In some places where transportation is not very convenient, they even have to take the fruits out to feed livestock.
In short, the fruits this summer are completely flooded!
But there are unexpected changes in the weather. This situation has been reversed for more than two months in July!
After entering July, Yandong City suddenly experienced heavy rains, accompanied by hail.
The damage caused by the continuous heavy rains and hail to the fruits is unimaginable, which caused many fruits in Yandong City to go bad in a very short time, and the market supply quickly changed from oversupply to shortage.
The price of goods is directly related to the market demand and supply. After the heavy rain, the prices of all fruits, including apples, soared rapidly.
How cheap it was before, how expensive it is now.
At its peak, the price of a pound of ordinary Fuji apples was 50 cents per pound, which was 25 times higher than the cheapest time.
In Li Yi's opinion, this is a good opportunity to make money!
Li Yi is confident that as long as he takes action now, he can definitely order a batch of fruits from fruit farmers at a relatively reasonable price.
Then, when the price of fruits rises, he will bring them back to Jiangcheng to sell them, and he will definitely make a lot of money.
However, Li Yi does not want to push a cart and sell them everywhere like those small vendors, he just wants to ship them quickly.
Therefore, Li Yi caught the attention of the factory. As long as he can get the welfare fruit business of the meat processing factory, it will be easy.
You must know that the meat processing factory currently has more than 500 workers, and each person must be issued at least 100 kilograms of various fruits in the middle of the year, which means that this business alone has a full 50,000 kilograms.
Even if one kilogram of fruit only makes 20 cents, the meat processing factory can make a full 10,000 yuan from this order, and a millionaire is in hand.
Besides, there is more than one meat processing plant in Jiangcheng, there are also wool spinning plants, accessory plants, supply and marketing cooperatives, etc. These state-owned enterprises are used to distributing benefits to employees in the middle of the year. If all these orders can be taken, this transaction alone will be enough for Li Yi to get his first pot of gold.
However, Li Yi did not tell anyone about this for the time being, not because he was afraid of leaking it, but because no one would believe him.
After all, the concept of futures is too vague for most people.
Instead of explaining this to everyone, it is better to speak with real results.
Two days later, after Wei Sanpao and others settled down, Li Yi took all the 200 yuan in his family and went out with a few brothers!
Yandong City is not far from Jiangcheng, and the straight-line distance is only 300 kilometers.
However, in this era, there is neither high-speed rail nor EMU, so such a long distance can only be traveled by train or long-distance bus.
In the end, Li Yi and others chose the car because the train was too slow. It takes more than eight hours to take the train, while the car only takes less than three hours.
Although the bus ticket is two cents more expensive than the train ticket, for Li Yi, the time saved is also money.
After getting on the bus, Xiaowu and others finally couldn't hold back their curiosity and asked:
"Brother Yi, what are we going to Yandong City for this time?"
"Brother Yi, the third brother said that you want to take the brothers to make money. How do you make money?"
"Brother Yi."
Li Yi glanced at the time. It was still early for the bus to arrive at the station, so he simply said: "Since you asked, then I will tell you about my plan. From now on, we are the purchasing staff of our meat processing plant!"
"What, the purchasing staff of our factory?"
"Yes, we are the purchasing staff of the meat processing plant. The purpose of going to Yandong City this time is to purchase welfare fruits for the staff and cadres of our factory in the middle of the year. The purchase task is 500,000 catties!"
"500,000 catties!!"
Everyone was shocked by Li Yi's words. Although no one knew how much 500,000 catties of fruit there were, the unit of 10,000 at the end was scary enough.
"Brother Yi, Brother Yi, apples are not expensive now, but 500,000 kilograms will cost a lot of money. Do we have the money?"
Li Yi said calmly: "I brought 200!"
Wei Sanpao touched his pocket and said: "I brought 1,000!"
"I brought 100!"
"I brought 300!"
"I brought 200"
After a simple calculation, the five people brought a total of 1,800 yuan, which is indeed a lot if they go out to play.
But if you want to do business, this amount of money is not much, not to mention that it is far from the purchase volume of 500,000 kilograms of fruit that Li Yi wants.
"Brother, with this amount of money, we can only buy 10,000 or 20,000 kilograms at most, not 500,000 kilograms!" Wei Sanpao frowned and said.
However, Li Yi patted the briefcase on his waist, and then smiled and said: "The things in my bag can be worth 100,000 yuan, not to mention 500,000 kilograms, even 5 million kilograms is no problem!"
"One hundred thousand yuan?"
"Brother, what are you carrying in this bag? It's so valuable?"
"Brother"
After signaling a few brothers to be quiet, Li Yi said directly: "From now on, you just need to remember your identity, and then watch from the side, don't worry about anything else!"
"Okay!"
