Return to 1981 and start from breaking off the engagement

Chapter 116
Yao Weijun did not quote his price, but wanted to hear what the other party thought first.

"Brother Yao, I won't hide it from you. I used to buy from others at the price of two yuan per bottle, and then ship it out for two yuan and eighty cents. The retail salesman below sold it for three and eighty yuan at the pigeon market.

Retailers earn one yuan a bottle, but I only earn sixty cents a bottle in order to keep up with the volume. "

Sun Baobing explained seriously.

What he said was similar to the information Yao Weijun learned outside, and there was no water in it.

"Boss Sun, what I mean is, what price do you think this canned brown sugar and jujubes can fetch in Pigeon Market?"

Yao Weijun asked again.

"You mean..." Sun Baobing frowned slightly, and then said with some uncertainty: "If the taste is good, it can be sold at the same price as canned yellow peaches, which means you can add [-] cents."

"Then give it a try." Yao Weijun signaled at the right moment.

Sun Baobing was not polite, he unscrewed the tin lid of the can, ate a red date in his mouth, and tasted the taste, and a look of joy gradually appeared on his face.

After taking another sip of the soup, he said with a smile: "Yeah! It tastes good, brother Yao. The taste of this can and the shape of the bottle are completely comparable to the price of canned yellow peach!"

Yao Weijun also smiled lightly and said: "In this case, then the price of our cooperation will be set at two yuan and seven. You will still earn [-] cents per bottle, and the rest of the profits will be left to the retail sellers. That's no problem, right?" ?”

Sun Baobing nodded with joy, but immediately asked: "Brother Yao, how much can you supply me every month? You can probably tell me."

"The supply quantity depends entirely on your distribution speed. I can fully cooperate with you. It depends on how much you can distribute in a month."

Yao Weijun smiled and handed him a cigarette and said seriously.

"Hey, is it true? Can you supply me with unlimited supplies?!"

Sun Baobing stood up excitedly, hurriedly lit Yao Weijun's cigarette, then lit it himself, and continued without bothering to smoke:
"Brother Yao, my sales here are not small. I have accumulated a lot of old customers in the past few years. As long as you have the goods, I will send them to you in minutes. I guarantee there will be no problem!"

"Okay, you have sales channels and I have the goods. It seems that our cooperation will be no problem."

When Yao Weijun said this, he took out another bottle of assorted cans from his work bag and put it on the coffee table.

"Boss Sun, you should also try this one, but it is temporarily filled in this bottle. When it is actually batch processed, it will be replaced with a suitable bottle to ensure it attracts customers' attention."

Sun Baobing quickly opened it again and tasted it, with a look of approval on his face.

"Brother Yao, with these two cans, I can buy at least [-] to [-] bottles every month. Are you sure you can process them?"

"No problem, this is my business and it won't delay your normal sales."

Yao Weijun was in a good mood, and when he said this, he changed the topic, "But my processing factory is in the suburbs of Beijing, so you may have to figure out a way to transport the goods yourself, Boss Sun. Is that okay?"

"Where in the suburbs of Beijing?"

"Daliu Commune, Shuyun County."

"It's not too far, Cheng. I can arrange a car to pick up the goods."

"The other thing is about payment settlement..."

"..."

……

Yao Weijun and Sun Baobing discussed the specific details of the cooperation, and specifically pointed out that cash settlement was required to avoid debts.

Time soon came to noon.

Naturally, Sun Baobing would not lose his etiquette and took Yao Weijun to an outside restaurant to entertain him with good food and wine.

In the afternoon, Yao Weijun returned to the hotel to rest. He was not ready to go home just yet.

Because there are more than one can wholesalers like Sun Baobing in the whole capital. He worked hard to understand the market in the past few days in order to find more cooperative people and pre-order all the 50 million cans and bottles as soon as possible!

The next morning, he felt relaxed and rushed to a wholesaler named Zhang in Liulichang, also carrying two bottles of cans in his bag.

This negotiation was not as smooth as Meishijie's, but the other party reluctantly agreed to cooperate and promised to ship [-] bottles per month first. The rest still had to be cooperated with the previous supplier.

Yao Weijun did not insist on this. He felt that as long as he cooperated with cans first, it would be considered a successful start. As he became familiar with the cooperation in the future, it would not be unacceptable to gradually increase the amount.

Next, he spent another day visiting two wholesale outlets, but he didn't gain much.

One company stated on the spot that it was working very well with its current supplier and had no plans to change, while the other company promised to consider it and did not express its agreement to cooperate on the spot.

Yao Weijun didn't take this seriously and accepted it calmly.

Talking about business can't go smoothly every time. This time when I went to Beijing, I was able to negotiate the orders of Meishi Street and Liulichang. The harvest was already quite big. I'll talk about the rest later.

Boss Sun from Meishijie is the most sincere in his cooperation, promising to sell around [-] to [-] bottles a month, while Boss Zhang from Liulichang, although not fully cooperating, promises to sell [-] bottles a month.

The combined total of these two companies has reached 25 or [-] bottles. Yao Weijun feels that with these two wholesale points alone, plus the distribution in the county, the [-] glass bottles he ordered will have a chance to be sold before the year. All canned and sold!

And this will bring him a net income of more than 50!

As for the speed of canning processing, he has also thought about this matter. The few workers he hired alone will definitely not be able to make it in time. When he returns to the village, he will use another method to speed up the canning production progress.

I gained a lot from my visit to the capital this time, and I also learned about the sale of mushrooms through Sun Baobing.

The latter knows a person who sells vegetables, but he has been collecting vegetables in the south recently, so he needs to wait until there is time next time to meet and discuss.

Yao Weijun readily agreed. He did not stay in the capital any longer. Instead, he bought a return ticket at noon that day and returned to Shuyun County in the evening.

Because he had spoken to You Damin on the phone in advance, the latter was already waiting on the roadside on his motorcycle when he left the station.

"Haha, brother Yao, I will keep my promise. Let's go. I'll give you a good night's rest and have a good drink!"

"Brother You, drop your work and come pick me up. I'll be hosting tonight!"

"..."

The two met for a cigarette and left the station on a motorcycle.

When drinking in the evening, You Damin asked him about what he had gained during the past few days in the capital. Yao Weijun claimed that he had not found any suitable way and felt that he should take it easy and return to continue his canned processing and roasted seed trading.

"Let me just say, the capital may not have the same freedom as our county. Brother Yao, let's work hard next. When my job transfer is finalized at the end of the year, I might be able to point you to other ways to make money!"

In the private room, You Damin had no one around, and he and Yao Weijun had long been acquainted, so he couldn't help but whisper mysteriously.

"Oh? Brother You is going to be promoted?"

Yao Weijun was startled, but then he was relieved.

You Damin has his father-in-law to help with activities and often goes to various places to build relationships. It is not surprising that he will be transferred sooner or later.

"Hey, we can't talk about promotion. It's just a change of environment. Otherwise, if you work at an agricultural technical station until you retire, wouldn't you have seen the end of it long ago? Haha..." You Damin laughed happily and said, "No." Mention the specific position to which you will be transferred.

Yao Weijun naturally didn't ask much about this. He had a good relationship with You Damin. The latter's promotion at work was a good thing for him.

"Oh, by the way, you have been out for seven or eight days this time, and I have already shipped goods to your house twice. The entire account has been given to my siblings. Don't worry, there will be no trouble in this regard!"

You Damin did not forget to remind him while he was drinking.

Yao Weijun responded and started drinking and chatting with him.

The two of them drank until after ten o'clock in the evening. Naturally, there were no buses back to the commune at this time, and Yao Weijun was eager to go home and had no intention of spending the night in the county seat.

Upon seeing this, You Damin said boldly: "How about this? You go home with me later, and you ride back after finishing the motorcycle. I'll go pick up the goods the day after tomorrow, and then ride back!"

"Thank you, Brother Yu!"

Yao Weijun was not polite to him, and the two of them took the lead on motorcycles and rushed to You Damin's house.

You Damin lived in the courtyard. Because it was too late, he did not invite Yao Weijun to his house for tea. The two smoked another cigarette at the door of the courtyard and gave Yao Weijun the key to his motorcycle.

Under You Damin's watch, Yao Weijun got on his motorcycle and drove quickly into the night.

"Slow down! Pay attention to safety on the road!" You Damin shouted loudly from behind and returned home to rest.

……

Yao Weijun rode his motorcycle and drove out of the county town.

This time I went to Beijing to discuss business and gained a lot. Next, I should plan how to increase the output of canning processing.

Thinking that the sales of canned goods are getting better and better, he unknowingly increased the speed of his bicycle, and the motorcycle roared at a high speed.

In the stillness of the night, the sound of motorcycles can be heard far away.
And just one kilometer in front of him.

Under the trees on the side of the county road, several figures also heard the sound of approaching motorcycles.

"Brother, here comes the work!"

"The noise is a motorcycle, and it's coming from the county town. We must leave the car and money behind!"

"How to deal with that person...?"

"Huh, let's see if he is a master who would rather give up his life than his wealth!"

"Brothers, get ready!"

"Got it!"

"..."

Soon, two figures quickly ran to the other side of the county road. They held the rope in their hands, tightened it with the other side, and tied it firmly to the big tree. Then they crouched and waited for the opportunity to move, waiting quietly in the distance. The motorcycle is approaching!
Obviously, this is to rob Daoer!

Public security these days is not as good as in later generations, and it is not uncommon to encounter disaster while walking at night.

Yao Weijun drank at this time and was thinking about canning processing. He was not aware of the coming danger at all.

He rode his motorcycle at a constant speed and soon arrived not far from the rope that the group had blocked in advance.

If you are tripped by a tight rope while driving at such a high speed, the consequences will be extremely serious and even life-threatening!

80 meters!
70 meters!
Seeing that the fatal rope was getting closer and closer, the people hiding behind the trees on both sides began to look forward to it with excitement.

But right now.

Boom... poof!

The motorcycle turned off automatically at this moment!

When Yao Weijun saw that something was wrong, he quickly pressed the brakes and continued to slow down. He couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Well, this noise means that the fuel tank is out of fuel. Hey, by the time we get home, it will probably be late at night."

And just when he was helpless, he suddenly felt a tightness in his collarbone, and a huge force acted there, knocking him off the motorcycle that had stalled and slowed down!
Fortunately, the speed of the motorcycle has dropped to a minimum. Although it fell to the ground, it was only a fall and no harm was done to the body.

The motorcycle in front that was out of control also fell to the ground without any movement.

"Ok?"

Yao Weijun was immediately alert, and he immediately realized that he had encountered a robbery!
So he jumped up suddenly and wanted to rush to the motorcycle to get the iron rod that he had hidden long ago, but the next moment he thought that this was not his motorcycle...

almost the same moment.

The people hiding behind the trees on both sides also appeared one after another, all silently surrounding Yao Weijun!
"Okay, boy, you are so alert that you know to turn off the engine in advance. Hey, you must have night eyes!"

The leader also had his face covered with cloth and was holding a stick in his hand. He pointed at Yao Weijun with interest and ridiculed.

"Friend, I don't have much money with me. I borrowed this motorcycle from someone else. It's just a convenience. I'll buy you a drink later!"

Yao Weijun calmed down and used the method of delaying the attack.

"Hahaha……"

But as soon as his words fell, the five or six people around him burst into laughter.

"This set is of no use to us. It's your motorcycle that my brother is interested in. You fool, you must keep the car!"

"That's right! Don't buy a drink. We can't afford it. Let's convert the cost of the drink into money. It will be more fun for us to eat and drink by ourselves!"

"Why don't you talk nonsense to him? Push the motorcycle away quickly. You two, go up and search for the money on him!"

The leader could see clearly now. He had a middle parted hair, and his voice was not too old, but his tone always revealed a harsh tone, and he stared at Yao Weijun coldly.

Yao Weijun tried his best to stay calm at this moment and quickly measured the strength gap between the two sides. There were six people on the opposite side. Obviously, it would be difficult to win without someone taking advantage of him.

Besides, the other party is holding a stick. Since these people dare to rob Daoer, they will definitely not show mercy in a real fight.

"Hey, this watch is pretty good. Is it new? Yes, it belongs to us now!"

At this time, two guys came up. One of them had sharp eyes and saw the watch on Yao Weijun's wrist first, and couldn't help but scream with joy.

"Don't be stunned. Hurry up and throw the work bag over. You have to force me to do it myself, right?"

When the other person saw this, he also yelled viciously and took aim at the work bag that Yao Weijun was carrying, thinking that there must be money in it.

Yao Weijun quietly looked around at the people present and made a quick decision in his mind.
