The negotiation with Zhenyuan Textile Factory went smoothly.
Just like in the 1980s and 1990s, no domestic enterprise could resist the temptation of the US dollar.
In the 1950s, no enterprise could resist the temptation of the Soviet ruble. After all, the rabbits are still actively moving towards the polar bears, and many industrial equipment are also purchased from the polar bears. The demand for rubles is not a little bit.
In addition, the ruble of this era is not the devalued ruble of later generations, but a real global strong currency. One ruble can be exchanged for one point one of the US dollar, and the purchasing power is very strong.
As for how much the first transaction is?
The original Soviet diplomat Vladimir only placed an order of 10,000 rubles (equivalent to about 28,000 yuan) to test the waters first.
As a result, after He Daqing called him to communicate, the order of 10,000 rubles directly increased tenfold, and Vladimir's capital was directly taken out.
Of course, the reason why He Daqing was able to do this was not only because he was eloquent and confused Vladimir, but more importantly, he got the real ex-factory price from Zhenyuan Textile Factory.
Originally, the price of silk from Zhenyuan Textile Factory was 1.8 yuan per meter, while the silk shop sold it at 2.7 yuan per meter.
Now, when he heard that he was going to do business with the big brother, Director Yang made a decision to set the supply price to Xueru Silk Shop at 1.2 yuan per meter, which was purely the cost price, without making a penny of profit. The price was suddenly one-third cheaper.
It was easier for Xueru Silk Shop to trade with Vladimir.
Then He Daqing and Chen Xueru discussed it for a while, and the two of them came up with a step-by-step purchase price for Vladimir.
They promised that as long as Vladimir bought more than 100,000 rubles at one time, he could get a discount of up to 90 cents. According to the purchase price of Xueru Silk Shop, he could sell it to him at 1.8 yuan per meter. It didn't matter whether he made money or not, just as if he was making friends. When he called to tell this matter, Vladimir was very excited.
Coupled with He Daqing's deception, the Soviet diplomat directly increased the purchase volume tenfold, took out all the money he had saved for several years, and prepared to go all out.
One hundred thousand rubles is more than 280,000 yuan.
In the fifties when prices were low, it was definitely a huge order.
After hearing the news.
Chen Xueru was directly excited. After all, with such an order, the profit alone would be almost more than 80,000 yuan. Even if half of it needs to be distributed to Zhenyuan Textile Factory, there will be more than 40,000 left.
This order can be equivalent to the profit of the silk shop for a year.
How can you make Chen Xueru unhappy?
The most important thing is that with the foundation of this cooperation, are you still afraid that there will be no second cooperation?
Thinking of this.
Chen Xueru couldn't sit still, and hurried back to Sijiu City, ready to sign the contract before Vladimir changed his mind.
"Don't be so anxious"
"It will take some time for Vladimir to collect such a large sum of money. It won't be too late to sign the contract after he has the money ready, so as to avoid other unexpected situations."
"In addition, don't tell Zhenyuan Textile Factory about this for the time being. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens and the deal goes wrong, where can we get him 100,000 rubles in foreign currency?"
"We should just prepare for the 10,000 ruble order first. After all, the contract for the 10,000 ruble order has been signed. We are not afraid that Vladimir will not admit it. At most, we can give him some discounts."
He Daqing looked at the excited Chen Xueru, but couldn't help but pour cold water on her.
Contracts these days don't have much legal significance, not to mention cross-border foreign trade contracts. If
Vladimir's money can't be received, all contracts are fake.
"What if Vladimir reacts?" Chen Xueru said worriedly.
"What do you mean by react?" He Daqing said speechlessly,"It's as if we are lying."
"Vladimir is not a fool. If he were, he would not have become a Soviet diplomat."
"Before he signed the contract with our silk shop, he must have already inquired in other silk shops and knew that our silk shop gave him the cheapest price and the best quality silk."
"Now I dare say that in the entire city of Sijiu, no silk shop can give him such a low price. If he is not stupid, he will definitely seize this opportunity."
"In fact, what we need to do now is not to persuade Vladimir to sign the contract, but to persuade him to calm down."
He Daqing taught Chen Xueru earnestly:"Because he doesn't have that much money now, it's useless even if he signs the contract. On the contrary, the more you urge him, the more he thinks there is something wrong with you and wants to cheat him."
"On the contrary, if you persuade him to calm down, do what he can, and consider things from his perspective, he will be more confident and feel that you are trustworthy. In this way, it is not us who are anxious, but him. Even if you don't want to sell it to him later, he will still be anxious with you."
"So you don't have to worry about the 100,000 ruble order. We can talk to Vladimir about it after we return from Guangzhou."
"As for the textile factory, just ask them to prepare 10,000 rubles of goods for the time being."
10,000 rubles, that's only 28,000. Even if something unexpected happens to Vladimir, He Daqing and his team can still buy the goods. It's just that it's more troublesome to raise the foreign exchange.
This risk is still within the controllable range.
If they really need goods worth 100,000 rubles at one time, He Daqing and his team may not even be able to raise 100,000 rubles of foreign exchange, let alone 100,000 rubles of RMB.
Unless Vladimir takes out the cash or pays half of the ruble deposit first, He Daqing will definitely not place an order with Zhenyuan Textile Factory.
The risk is too great and they can't afford it.
After hearing He Daqing's analysis, Chen Xueru calmed down and took a deep breath and said,"You are right. An order of 100,000 rubles is too large. We can't place an order with the textile factory before we see the money."
"If something goes wrong with Vladimir, we can't come up with so much foreign exchange."
It's not that we can't come up with so much money, but that we can't come up with so much foreign exchange.
Renminbi is easy to say. After all, if Suzhou embroidery silk is shipped to Sijiu City at 1.2 yuan per meter, it will definitely make the silk merchants in Sijiu City fight for it. There is no need to worry about no one buying it.
The key is that Zhenyuan Textile Factory does not want RMB, but ruble foreign exchange.
If there is no foreign exchange settlement, why would the textile factory give you such a big discount?
The textile factory doesn't even care whether you are really trading with the Soviets. As long as there is foreign exchange, they are willing to sell you goods at a low price.
If there is no foreign exchange, let alone supplying you with goods at a low price, even if you offer a high price, they will not supply you with goods.
After understanding this point.
Chen Xueru couldn't help complaining, saying:"You said that the leaders of this textile factory are also sick. They would rather not make money selling to foreigners than make more money selling to us small traders. Is there a problem?"
He Daqing shook his head and sighed:"There is no way. Who made our country poor? If our country was developed, why would we sell good things at a low price for a little foreign exchange?"
"Besides, the leaders of the textile factory are not stupid, they are very smart."
"Whether the factory’s products can make money or not, what does it have to do with the leaders?"
"They can only get a fixed salary of more than 100 yuan per month, but as long as the textile factory can earn foreign exchange, these leaders can be respected by their superiors and move up in their positions."
"If this happened to you, what would you do?"
Is Director Yang of the textile factory stupid?
He immediately reduced the ex-factory price of silk by one third, giving them the lowest cost price.
If you really think so, you are really stupid.
He Daqing estimated that this was the lowest price of silk from Zhenyuan Textile Factory. If it could be lower, Director Yang would definitely give He Daqing and his team a lower price without hesitation.
Because He Daqing promised Director Yang not only to trade in rubles, but also half of the total profit.
The lower the price He Daqing got, the larger the shipment volume, and the more foreign exchange the factory could earn.
And 50% of the total profit, It is the extra income of the textile factory.
How the money will be divided depends on the textile factory itself.
If the leaders of the textile factory are willing to work, they may put the money into the factory and give the workers more benefits.
If the leaders of the textile factory are not decent people, they can just embezzle the money.
This is the worst way to benefit oneself at the expense of the public.
So whoever thinks that the leaders of the textile factory are stupid is really stupid.
Chen Xueru is smart, but she is too young after all. At the age of 21, if she were in later generations, she probably wouldn't even have graduated from college. Naturally, she would lack a clear understanding of the twists and turns in it.
If she really waited for two more years in the business world, she wouldn't have such thoughts.
………���
The problem of silk shop supply was solved.
He Daqing and Chen Xueru continued to go south and took the train to Guangzhou.
In the 1950s, Guangzhou did not have tall buildings, but it was still prosperous. Human-powered tricycles were an important way for many people to travel. In terms of commercial prosperity, not to mention compared with the Magic City, even the Forbidden City was far inferior.
He Daqing and his partner got off the train in Guangzhou. Seeing that it was still early, just over nine in the morning, they took a bus directly to Foshan.
To be honest.
This was the first time He Daqing took a charcoal-burning car. The word"charcoal" could be clearly seen on the body of the car.
The reason is that there is a shortage of gasoline nowadays, and buses can only use charcoal as fuel to provide power.
Of course, this is not the most shocking thing.
The most shocking thing is that the body of the bus is not pure metal, but wood and iron, with an iron frame and a wooden compartment.
Such a bus...
He Daqing was so scared when he sat there.
I was afraid that if I was not careful, it would fall apart.
Fortunately, the bus was quite sturdy. After a bumpy ride, the wooden carriage was intact, and even the screws were not loose.
This shocked He Daqing, and he was also amazed at the creativity of people in this era. (To read the novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Of course, if he had a choice, he would definitely not want to take such a bus a second time.
0 Asking for flowers
It really makes me feel insecure.
After an hour and a half of fear, the bus He Daqing and his companions took finally arrived in Foshan.
The total distance was 25 kilometers, and the total time was one and a half hours, with an average speed of 16 kilometers per hour.[]
It was barely a little faster than a horse carriage.
This is not to say that the speed of the car is really that slow, but there are too many people getting on and off the road. If there are not so many stops and waiting, it may be... probably... maybe it can arrive in an hour.
After all, it is a car that uses charcoal as a fuel source. How fast can you expect it to be?
The general speed is 26 kilometers per hour, and charcoal is consumed 0.5 kilograms per kilometer. It can travel for four hours after adding charcoal. During the driving process, bursts of thick smoke will rise, and the front of the car looks like a steam locomotive.
In fact, the emergence of charcoal cars is also a matter of course.
Because of the war, the West has vigorously blockaded China, and China is in a period of reconstruction, and fuel resources are very tight, so in this era, the policy of replacing oil with carbon has been implemented.
It is not because this kind of truck has many advantages, but it is a last resort.
Because of the limited fuel in the country, it must be supplied to the troops first.
In fact, there are a large number of charcoal cars in cities such as Sijiucheng and Jinshi, but these charcoal cars are all charcoal trucks, and there are very few charcoal buses.
This kind of charcoal truck is generally modified. A simple modification is made to the fuel truck, and a boiler is added to the original basis, and a charcoal truck is born.
He Daqing had also seen charcoal trucks in the old city and was very surprised at the time, but he never thought that he would see them in Guangzhou.���It turned out that they were so advanced that they directly changed the buses into charcoal cars.
In particular, in order to save steel raw materials, the original cast iron body was changed into a wooden body.
It can only be said that it is worthy of being the earliest revolutionary city, and the ideological awareness is high.
After He Daqing and his companions arrived in Foshan, they did not visit their great uncle immediately, but first found a hotel to stay in, took a shower, changed clothes, and had lunch.
Then they temporarily put the luggage they carried with them in the hotel, and went out to buy some gifts.
After buying the gifts, they followed the address given by Guan Yushan and came to a slightly shabby mansion.
"No. 46 Wenchang Street, Hefu? ?"
"That's right, it's No. 46 Wenchang Street, why is it wrong?"
He Daqing looked at the house in front of him, compared it with the address given by Guan Yushan, and said uncertainly.
It's not that the two of them were unconfident.
It's because there was a sign hanging at the door of the house in front of them, with the words"Yuezhou Foshan City Education Bureau" written on it.
After seeing this sign.
He Daqing and Chen Xueru couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.
Good guy.
This person went directly to the Municipal Education Bureau.
What's going on?
How come such a big He Mansion is gone?
"Could it be that his great uncle has been beaten up as a landlord and even his house has been confiscated?"
He Daqing stood at the door of the Municipal Education Bureau, watching the staff constantly coming in and out, and such a thought popped up in his mind.
This is not He Daqing's fantasy.
It is very possible.
After all, the Chinese people have a very serious attachment to land, especially for some large families. After migrating from one place to another, the first thing to do is to buy real estate and land.
When the main branch of the He family and several branches migrated from Shanxi to Guangzhou, doing business was definitely inevitable, but do you want to ask if they would buy land?
That is definitely inevitable.
And what era is this now?
Fight the landlords and divide the land.
If the main branch of the He family and several other branches really hold a large amount of land and have survived the war and have not left.
Then their fate can be imagined. They will definitely not escape the public trial and sanctions of the people and be beaten up as landlords.
It is said that they have been sent to the village for labor reform.
Chen Xueru looked at the sign of the Education Bureau in front of her, and also thought of this problem. She couldn't help asking:"He Daqing, are you sure it is here and you haven't found the wrong place?"
He Daqing sighed and said,"It should be here, but this address is from a long time ago. Let's ask someone first."
People are already here. We must find out the situation.
No matter if my uncle is not alive or has been sent to labor reform, we must find out the situation and cannot go back without knowing anything.
Otherwise, when we return to Sijiu City, when Shan and Zheng Wentian ask about it, we can't be ignorant of everything, right?
If my uncle's family is really sent to labor reform, it will be...���If you can help, you have to help.
After all, this is the only relative left in the third generation of the He family.
You can't just let him die like this.
Thinking of this.
He Daqing also sighed and said,"Let's go, let's find an older man nearby and ask about my uncle's situation first, and we'll talk about the rest later.""
"If all else fails, go to the street office and ask. You'll always be able to find some clues."
