Cao Jianjun and his group were unaware of these things and were misled into selling the same product at 400 yuan per ton.

As for scrap steel, the final price was set at 600 yuan per ton.

The goods sold out quickly; in no time, a few people bought them all. After tallying up the accounts and deducting costs and expenses, they made about 30,000 yuan that day.

If it weren't for Tengyue Company competing with them, making over 30,000 yuan a day would be a great business.

Yesterday and today, goods from Tengyue have been continuously being transported here, earning several million yuan a day.

Cao Jianjun and others had always wanted to compete with Wu Yucheng, and this comparison naturally made them feel resentful.

"Brother Jun, what do we do next? We have so much stock in our warehouse."

"At this rate, even if the Yangtze River thaws, we still won't be able to sell them all!" A group of people sighed and lost all confidence.

Meanwhile, Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng hosted a banquet at the Longjiang Hotel to entertain Xu Guoxing and several leaders from the Transportation Bureau and the Public Security Bureau.

"Single game, congratulations game, Happy New Year!"

Oh dear, I've been so busy. I arrived here on the fifteenth of the first lunar month and then got busy with trade matters, so I haven't had a chance to see you all.

Sheng Xiping had met all these city leaders and knew them all. They would shake hands and greet each other warmly as soon as they met.

"President Sheng and President Wu have such large businesses, they're both very busy people, it's normal." Director He and the others nodded with smiles and exchanged pleasantries.

When people meet, they inevitably chat for a while, asking about each other's recent situations. They ramble on about this and that, without rushing to get to the point.

After the restaurant staff served all the dishes and filled all the glasses, Xu Guoxing, who had organized the gathering, took the first glass, then walked around the room before getting down to business.

"As you both know, there is currently no train service to Heihe, so many border trade goods have to be transported to Sunwu for loading and shipping."

I'm thinking of setting up a transportation company in Heihe. The company won't need to travel too far in the short term; short-distance transport will still be profitable.

Sheng Xiping fiddled with his wine glass, his gaze fixed on the person opposite him.

"As you both know, I'm quite busy and can't handle much else. I'm looking for someone to collaborate with. Do you have any ideas?"

The director of the Transportation Bureau is surnamed He, and the director of the Public Security Bureau is surnamed Shan. Both of them are the top leaders of their respective bureaus, and their words carry weight.

The reason Sheng Xiping sought out these two men was simple: the Transportation Bureau was in charge of this, and if you wanted to open a transportation company, you couldn't bypass them.

As for the other side, after the cooperation, they'll be on the same side. From now on, in Heihe, unless they've had enough of the good life, no one will dare to mess with Tengyue Company.
