Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 445 Tengyue Trading Company

With the help of the Wu family and the Chen family, Sheng Xiping's trip south went very smoothly.

He signed a supply agreement with the feed factory, and then approached the relevant departments to discuss transportation issues.

After all the passes in the south were cleared, Sheng Xiping and his party immediately returned to the northeast.

The Northeast is an important grain production base and is known as the granary of the world. If the feed mill needs a little bit of corn, can't it be easily solved?

With Chen Ruiqing's guarantee and Sheng Xiping's capital of more than 100,000 yuan, large quantities of corn were continuously shipped to Shenzhen.

During the six months from April to October, Sheng Xiping spent most of his time pouring corn and occasionally some wood. Starting in October, he began to make new attempts.

At that time, most of the people who invested in Shenzhen were businessmen from Hong Kong City.

One of the businessmen's father was suffering from a terminal illness, and a doctor prescribed a medicine, which contained ginseng and required old wild ginseng that was more than a hundred years old. This medicine could delay the old man's life by three years.

The other party offered a high price and spent a lot of money to buy ginseng.

At that time, most of the people investing in Shenzhen were Hong Kong businessmen, and the news spread to Sheng Xiping from those Hong Kong businessmen.

Sheng Xiping had ginseng in his hand, and it was old enough, so he used this ginseng seedling to establish a relationship with the other party.

Then through the invitation letter sent by the other party, Sheng Xiping took Wu Yucheng and Liu Yuhe to the port city, where they went through the procedures and registered a Teng Yue trading company.

In fact, you just rent a small office, have two telephones, and hire people from three or four cities to guard it.

When they are needed, they arrange things to do. When they are not needed, they look at houses in the office.

After that, Sheng Xiping and the others rented an office in Shencheng, which was listed as a branch office of Gangcheng Trading Company.

In recent years, with the reform and opening up, people's living standards have improved, and their requirements for material life have also increased year by year.

In many places, the three most popular wedding items a few years ago were "bicycle, radio, and watch."

Now, it has quietly turned into televisions, washing machines and refrigerators, and people's demand for home appliances has surged.

Especially in the Northeast region, the home appliance industry lags behind due to various reasons.

Occasionally, a batch of black-and-white TVs would come into the store, and they would be sold out in no time.

Even if you need industrial coupons, even if the price is very expensive, you still can't resist people's enthusiasm to buy.

Sheng Xiping took a fancy to this and came up with an idea.

He planned to purchase a large number of TVs, washing machines, refrigerators, tape recorders and other home appliances in the name of welfare benefits provided by his work unit.

Then it is transported back to the Northeast and supplied to various forestry bureaus in the form of wood exchange.

When the time comes, he will transport the wood to various parts of the south and supply it to timber merchants.

The Forestry Bureau is still in its most prosperous era. The workers have money in their hands, but they are short of supplies and cannot buy anything they want.

Especially after winter, many young people are getting married and are in urgent need of various household appliances.

Sheng Xiping relied on Chen Ruiqing and Zhou Mingyuan's personal connections to establish connections with seventeen forestry bureaus across the province.

As soon as he heard that Sheng Xiping was going to exchange various household appliances for wood, the other party was very happy. Wasn't this just a pillow to take a nap?

Just change it, the Forestry Bureau has nothing else but a lot of wood, so you can change it as much as you can.

"Xiping, let me tell you, this time you must reserve 200 color TVs, 500 black and white TVs, at least 300 washing machines and tape recorders for our bureau, and less refrigerators, 100 About."

Wang Jiachuan called Shencheng directly and shouted on the phone, asking Sheng Xiping to leave more home appliances for him.

The weather in the Northeast is cold and the winter is long. Refrigerators are not that useful, so the demand is small.

It is precisely because winter is long, it gets dark early, and people have nothing to do. Who doesn’t want to sit on the hot bed and watch TV happily in the winter? So the demand for this TV is very high.

Wang Jiachuan still didn't dare to overpay because he was afraid that Sheng Xipingcai wouldn't be able to buy so many appliances.

If we follow the opinions of the big guys in the bureau, at least 500 color TV sets and a thousand black and white TV sets are enough.

"Uncle, you want a lot. There are a lot of orders now, and I don't have that much on hand.

How about this, can I do it in batches? Before the end of the year, we must gather enough quantity. "

Sheng Xiping held the phone and listened to Wang Jiachuan's shouting, and couldn't help but feel happy.

"Okay, don't worry about how many times you divide it. You must make up this amount before the year, no more, no less.

Don't worry, I will pick the best wood for you. Your uncle is not a errand boy. "Wang Jiachuan shouted from the other end.

"Okay, okay, okay, uncle, don't worry, I will definitely try my best to meet the request." Sheng Xiping smiled and hung up the phone call to Wang Jiachuan.

The phone here just hung up, and then it rang again. It was the forestry bureaus who had calculated the demand and submitted order orders to Sheng Xiping.

Of course, some games are really open-mouthed, and young and old are suddenly separated, and Sheng Xiping has to bargain with them.

The corn business itself takes up part of the capital, and the remaining two million yuan is invested in the home appliance business.

This appliance is to be exchanged for wood. It will take some time for the wood to be sold and the funds to be withdrawn.

Therefore, Sheng Xiping cannot provide a large amount of goods at one time, and must leave a certain amount of room for turnover.

Besides, he didn’t just do it for this year and take his time.

There are nearly 200,000 employees in the 17 forestry bureaus in Quang Cat Province. It is simply impossible to supply them all.

"Second brother, is there nothing left to do at home at this time? Let the eldest brother hurry up and come over.

It would be best to find a few more people who have good connections and are young and strong. We are short of manpower now.

When eldest brother comes over, you two will be responsible for Baomi. Next, I will be mainly responsible for home appliances and lumber.

Let us brothers work hard and try to get more money to go home for the New Year this year. "

After waiting for the call to be answered, Sheng Xiping called Liu Yuhe over and they discussed the matter.

Wu Yucheng still had a job, so he couldn't keep asking for leave.

So after staying here for two months, Wu Yucheng had to go back to work for two months.

Before going back this time, Wu Yucheng said that he wanted to go back and apply for a leave of absence without pay, and then come over to work with Sheng Xiping.

The company has hired some clerks now, but the only ones who can support the overall situation are Sheng Xiping and Liu Yuhe, and there is not enough manpower.

Sheng Xiping was originally thinking about asking Wang Jianshe, Chen Weiguo and others to come over to help, but the winter production season was about to begin, and these people all had jobs.

After all, not everyone has the courage of Sheng Xiping to abandon his iron job and run out to do business.

Besides, you have to tell people this kind of thing in person, how can you do it on the phone?

So Sheng Xiping planned to go home during the Chinese New Year and discuss it with Chen Weiguo and others.

Liu Yujiang is different. When winter comes, the agricultural team has nothing to do. They just leave the cats at home for the winter.

It just so happened that Liu Yujiang was asked to bring a few capable people over and leave the matter of dumping the corn to them, so that Sheng Xiping could free up his hands to do other things.

There are plenty of profitable businesses, how many can Sheng Xiping run by himself? If you have money, let's make money together.

"Well, almost, I should have finished planting the stick by this time.

Then I called back and told my elder brother to hurry up and come. "Liu Yuhe counted the time. There should be nothing left to do at home.

In the past half year, following Sheng Xiping's various tossings around, Liu Yujiang has grown rapidly, and he has figured out all the ways of the Baomi business.

I just happened to call my eldest brother here so that we can all make money together.

"Okay, then just call and bring a good boy to my master and my wife.

Just say that I'm too busy now and can't go back for a while. I'm waiting to go home during the Chinese New Year and see my parents again. "

In the past six months, Sheng Xiping traveled between the Northeast and Shencheng. He only returned to Songjiang River very rarely, let alone to the forest farm. How could he have time to do this?

"My brothers will do a good job. Not to mention anything else when we go home this year, we are guaranteed to have a color TV, a washing machine, etc., so we can go home and celebrate the New Year in glory."

Sheng Xiping leaned on the chair and said with a smile. "It depends on the situation. If we earn a lot by the end of the year, we will also find a way to get a few cars."

When Liu Yuhe heard this, he was so beautiful that he nodded repeatedly, "I don't care much about cars, just a color TV.

If we take this back, won’t the entire base camp come to our house to watch TV? Liu Yuhe couldn't help grinning with joy when he thought of that scene.

For him, no matter how much money he brings home, he is not as happy as carrying a color TV back home.

You know, there aren't even black-and-white TVs in the village now. If he gets a color TV back home, that's his only share.

"Look at your pursuits. You will be satisfied with a color TV." Sheng Xiping couldn't help but laugh. Who doesn't yearn for a better life?

The two brothers chatted for a while, then the phone rang again, so they each went their separate ways.

Liu Yuhe spent a lot of effort to call the big alkali field and told Liu Yujiang what Sheng Xiping meant.

On Liu Yujiang's side, grass had already grown in his heart.

In the past six months, although Liu Yuhe has not been home a few times, he has given tens of thousands to his family every time he came back. It is impossible to say that Liu Yujiang is not greedy.

But he is the secretary of the brigade. At present, the household contract responsibility system has not yet been implemented locally, and it is still a production team model.

If Liu Yujiang gives up his job, no one in the team will take over.

Therefore, even though Liu Yujiang felt as if he was scratching his head, he was too embarrassed to just leave his job and go south.

Just as the work of ginseng was finished, Liu Yuhe's call came. When Liu Yujiang heard it, Sheng Xiping asked him to take someone over, and he was very happy at the time.

"Dad, Mom, the second brother called, saying that Xiping asked me to bring a few people over to help, and they were too busy.

Are you okay with this? "Liu Yujiang went home and discussed with his parents.

Liu Changde lived in the capital for nearly two months in the spring. It was not until Mr. Wu fully recovered and could walk around on his own that Liu Changde felt relieved to return home.

This year Liu Yuhe is doing business in the south, and Liu Yujiang is busy with the brigade. Liu Changde has to take care of the family business.

Fortunately, Liu Changde is not too old yet and is in good health, so doing some work will not be a problem.

Finally, the autumn harvest was over and the food was packed away. Liu Changde finally had some time to rest. Hearing what the elder said, Liu Changde thought for a long time before speaking.

"Okay, you can go if you want. While you're young, go out and explore the world and see the world.

Anyway, it’s winter and there’s nothing to do. In normal years, we just go hunting in the mountains or something. If you help Xiping, you can earn more. "

From the first time Liu Yuhe came back and threw away 30,000 yuan at home, Liu Changde could tell that his eldest son was worried.

Therefore, Liu Changde didn't stop him at this time. Let's go. Who thinks it's too much money?

As for the seven boys in the family, there will be more places to spend money in the future, so what if we don’t make some money?

"Don't worry at home, your dad and I are here. The children are grown up, so you don't have to worry about it. You can just go out and go out without worrying about anything." Over there, Qin Qiuyan also expressed support.

In this way, Liu Yujiang made up his mind to go south.

He found three or four young men in the village who had a good relationship with him on weekdays and were young, strong, and smart. After talking to them, they all agreed to follow him to make a living.

Before leaving, Liu Yujiang went to Sheng's house and talked to Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen.

Zhang Shuzhen learned that Liu Yujiang was going to find Sheng Xiping, so she quickly packed some things and asked Liu Yujiang to take them there.

Sheng Liancheng asked Liu Yujiang to give Sheng Xiping a message.

"Yujiang, tell our boss, just make enough money to spend, but don't be too greedy.

He has been away for more than half a year without returning home, and he doesn't care about anything. How can this be a life? "

In fact, every time Liu Yuhe came back, he helped Sheng Xiping send money back. He also gave Sheng Liancheng and his wife no less than 100,000 yuan.

But Sheng Liancheng has old ideas. No matter how much money he makes from business, Sheng Liancheng still feels that it is not as good as having a job and living a stable life.

"Tell him, doing business outside is just business, and you are not allowed to get involved in other things.

He is alone outside and doesn't care about anything at home. His wife has to go to work and take care of the children alone. It's not easy.

Don't do business for two years and have money in your hands. Don't get involved with foreign gangs and associate with those shady women outside.

If he dares, I'll break his legs. "

Sheng Liancheng was worried about his son. He was always thinking about it, fearing that his eldest son would not learn well outside and would end up making a lot of money without knowing how to do it, thus destroying his good family.

It is said that the mother is worried when her son travels thousands of miles, so why shouldn’t the father be worried? It's just that men are emotionally reserved and don't show it on weekdays.

"Uncle, look at you, you are thinking too much. Xiping is such a smart person, he can't make this mistake, don't worry."

Liu Yujiang laughed when he heard this and hurriedly said a few good words for Sheng Xiping.

Liu Yujiang sat in the Sheng family for a while, then took the things prepared by Zhang Shuzhen and left.

Several people carried their luggage and left the Great Alkali Field by car. They took the car to Songjiang River first, and then reversed to the provincial capital, where they waited for Liu Yuhe.

After the two brothers met, they began to work on many matters of transporting corn to Hong Kong City. Finally, all the corn was loaded into the truck and sent away, and they also followed to Hong Kong City.

Sheng Xiping is also very busy here. He wants to purchase a large number of home appliances and at the same time is looking for sales channels for wood.

In addition to Sheng Xiyun and Hou Yashuang, Sheng Xiping also contacted many past merchants and negotiated cooperation matters with them.

In early November, Wu Yucheng returned from the capital. He had already completed the formalities for suspension of employment without pay. This time, he wanted to show off his talents with Sheng Xiping.

In the name of unit welfare, the trading company purchased a large number of home appliances through imports and various channels in Fujian and Guangdong provinces, and then sent the home appliances to the forestry bureaus in the Northeast.

The Forestry Bureau exchanges high-quality wood for home appliances, and then issues home appliance shopping coupons in the form of employee benefits. Employees can use the shopping coupons to choose the home appliances they like and buy them home.

Since the home appliances purchased by Sheng Xiping were at a low price and cut out many intermediate links, even if he added a price increase, it would still be lower than what was sold in local stores, so everyone was rushing to buy it.

From the beginning of November to the end of December, Sheng Xiping shipped a total of three batches of home appliances to Northeast China, and all of them were sold out.

At the same time, Sheng Xiping also transported a large amount of wood and sold it to merchants, making another fortune.

In the blink of an eye, 1982 is about to pass.

On December 31st, Sheng Xiping booked a few tables in the hotel and called all the company's employees in Shenzhen together for a dinner.

"Come, come, come, fill up your glasses. Today is the last day of 1982, and tomorrow is the new year.

You all followed me all the way to Shencheng and couldn't go home to celebrate the holidays with your loved ones. Let's celebrate together here and welcome the new year together. "

Sheng Xiping held the wine glass and clinked the glasses with everyone with a smile on his face.

Everyone shouted "Happy New Year" in unison.

“This is the first year of our company’s development. At present, the company is running well and making good profits.

All of this relies on the joint efforts of everyone. You all have worked hard. I am here to thank you. "

Immediately afterwards, Sheng Xiping brought up a second glass of wine.

"Tomorrow is New Year's Day. I'll give everyone a day off. Those who are close to home can go back and have a look. Those who are far away from home can just take a walk.

I will come back to work the day after tomorrow. In the new year, I hope you will continue to work hard and we will achieve greater success. "Sheng Xiping brought three glasses of wine in succession.

After three glasses of wine, everyone ate and drank as they pleased.

Sheng Xiping, the Liu brothers, and Wu Yucheng, the four of them sat together, laughing and drinking, just in time to arrange the company's affairs.

“I plan to ship the last batch of home appliances back around the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, and then go home for the New Year.

It's been too long since I've been out, and I really miss home. I'll leave it to Xiao Sun and the others to guard this side. We'll just have a holiday before the New Year. "

It has been almost nine months since Sheng Xiping came out in March. Every time he returns to the Northeast, he comes and goes in a hurry. He only stays in Songjianghe for two nights at most and has no time to go back to the forest farm.

After being away from home for so long, Sheng Xiping missed his parents very much. If the company hadn't shipped the last batch of goods back, he would have raised the pole long ago. Can he wait until now?

"Well, I miss home too. I've only gone back twice in the past six months since I left." Liu Yuhe scratched his head. Who misses home?

“Let’s work hard for another year or two and save more money. Then we can find a similar project and then withdraw.

What we call a trading company sounds good now, but in fact it is just buying and selling. This thing is unreal, and it is easy to fall into it if something goes wrong. "

Sheng Xiping had long thought that the trading company was just a means for them to earn the first pot of gold, and they would still have to develop physically in the future.

Although you can make quick money by buying and selling, the risks are also high.

If Sheng Xiping and the others hadn't had these connections to protect them and had specially registered a company in Hong Kong City, they would have been targeted long ago and sent in if things went wrong.

Now they are just taking advantage of the geographical difference and information gap to do some business. This kind of thing cannot last in the long run.

"Well, I listen to Brother Xiping. You can do whatever you say." Wu Yucheng admired Sheng Xiping very much.

Although when he was in the capital, he was disobedient to everyone day by day, as if he was worth 2,580,000 yuan, but in front of Sheng Xiping, he was obedient, and he did whatever Sheng Xiping said, without saying a word.

Wu Yucheng had nothing to say, and the Liu brothers had no objections either.

They were just following Sheng Xiping to gain glory. They just did whatever Sheng Xiping told them to do. How could there be so much nonsense?

"Come, come, let us brothers have a drink. The company's development depends entirely on Xiping.

We two brothers just follow orders. We do whatever you ask us to do. We don’t go west when you ask us to go east. We don’t chase away chickens when you ask us to chase away dogs. "

Liu Yujiang picked up the cup, touched it with Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng, and the four brothers took a sip of wine together.

Everyone enjoyed the meal quite late, then helped each other and went back to rest.

When I woke up, it was already January 1, 1983, and a new year had begun.

The company had a holiday on New Year's Day, and Sheng Xiping rarely slept in. He got up after nine o'clock, packed up, had a meal, and then took a car to Yangcheng to find Sheng Yunfei.

The summer vacation in the south is long and the winter vacation is short. Sheng Yunfei and her school haven't had winter vacation yet.

Sheng Xiping found Sheng Yunfei, took his sister around Yangcheng, bought a lot of things for her, and the two of them went to have a good meal.

The next morning, Sheng Xiping returned to the company.

Because Sheng Xiping planned to return to the Northeast at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, he would have to come back at least after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month after the new year.

If you are away from the company for such a long time, things here must be handled and arranged in advance.

Over the past year, Sheng Xiping made a lot of money by selling corn, home appliances, lumber, etc.

Shencheng has many preferential policies. At the end of the year, after deducting various company expenses, taxes, etc., the net profit is just over four million.

The main reason is that there are still a batch of home appliances and wood that have not been completed, and a batch of funds have not yet been withdrawn. Otherwise, the profits will be higher.

After finding some time, Sheng Xiping called Wu Yucheng and the Liu brothers together.

“When we first started the company, we just relied on passion and brotherhood, and we didn’t think much about it at the time.

Right now, the company's profits for this year have come out, and we are about to go home for the New Year.

Regarding the company's shares and dividends, it's time for us to sit down and discuss it carefully before making a decision. "

"Brother, what are you talking about? This company only used your capital from the beginning, and we didn't invest anything in it.

Over the past six months, you have given us a lot of money. Over and over, you have given me hundreds of thousands, right?

That's enough, what more dividends do you need? "When Wu Yucheng heard this, he waved his hand quickly.

The money he earned in the past six months, if put in the original unit, would be enough for him to earn wages for thirty years. Whatever is more is enough, it should be more or less enough.

"Yu Cheng is right, Xiping, you have already given us a lot of money, but don't say anything about whether we should pay dividends or not. It will make our brothers gain more points."

On the other end, Liu Yuhe also echoed and agreed.

"No, that's not what I said. Without your help, our company wouldn't be able to open and make so much money.

Those who deserve to be divided must be divided. Those who are divided into more and less, just don't be unhappy. "Sheng Xiping was happy when he heard it.

"We are a company after all, and we must have the necessary articles of association. We can't just act haphazardly."
