Chapter 540 That's Not Our Territory
In fact, it’s no wonder that Heidan thinks Han Ying is ugly.
Because she met Heidan three times, Han Ying put ugly makeup on her face.
"Based on today's meteorites, 3,000 tons of meteorites, I will give you 3,000 kilograms of cotton, 500 kilograms of duck and goose feathers, and 200 rabbit skins. What do you think?"
Whether it is cotton, duck feathers, goose feathers or rabbit skins, they are difficult to find in this doomsday, especially in such large quantities.
The price Han Ying quoted was actually not low.
When she was in Feng Province, the exchange price was one ton of meteorite for five kilograms of cotton.
But don't forget that Heidan not only needs these cold-proof supplies, but also medicines.
Therefore, the amount of cold-proof supplies provided will naturally be less.
"If we trade meteorites from this province with you again, they will be gone. Next time, we will get them from our neighboring Yan Province."
"So the price has to be a little higher. After all, that's not our territory, you know."
"And you may need to calculate based on 6,000 tons, because I have already started sending people to Yan Province to collect them during this period."
When doing business in the apocalypse, it is better to trade more at one time than less. Otherwise, what if people don’t need the meteorites next time?
Then wouldn’t all those meteorites he collected be wasted?
After all, although I had heard of people buying meteorites before, I had only waited for this one in such a long time.
To collect meteorites, he only needs to spend some manpower and time. Although it is not a cost-free business, it is actually not much different.
After hearing what Heidan said, Han Ying and Lu Yuan knew that the price had to be increased, after all, Yan Province would definitely want some benefits as well.
And who will provide this benefit?
Of course, the two buyers are Han Ying and Lu Yuan.
Unless they go to Yan Province and find someone else to buy it.
But if he did that, he would completely offend Heidan and his gang.
"We need to discuss this."
Lu Yuan put his arm around Han Ying's shoulders and spoke to Heidan.
"Please."
Heidan is very easy to talk to when it comes to partners who can bring him benefits.
He nodded to Heidan and the two got into the car.
There is actually no need to discuss anything, but you still have to pretend to do it.
After all, it's a price increase, so no matter what you do, you can't give the other party the illusion that they will easily agree.
"Give them another 200 kilograms of duck or goose feathers. Didn't we get a container of colorful socks when we opened the container a few days ago? Give them some of those."
Lu Yuan thought about it and decided to add some duck feathers and socks.
Although they planted a lot of cotton in their space, the output was limited.
Add to that the previous transactions in Feng Province, plus the 3,000 kilograms mentioned earlier, and they actually don’t have much left.
There are quite a lot of duck and goose feathers accumulated over the years.
But a duck can only produce about two taels of feathers, while a goose can produce about half a pound.
So these 700 kilograms of wool are almost two-thirds of what has been saved over the years.
There is no guarantee that the other party will not ask for these things again during the next transaction, so you cannot take them all out, you have to keep some.
But after this trip, I have to kill another batch of ducks, geese, and rabbits.
Duck feathers, goose feathers and rabbit skins are very popular cold-proof materials in this extreme cold.
And they really have too many socks.
They would not be able to wear all the clothes Han Ying stockpiled before the apocalypse in several lifetimes, not to mention taking them out of the container.
It just so happened that the other party also wanted the socks, so it would be perfect to take some out and exchange them.
"Okay, those socks are ugly, how about 2,000 pairs?"
When she shipped out that container of socks, Han Ying had already decided to trade them.
They are so colorful that they can form a rainbow when lined up in a row.
Han Ying planned to pick out the ugly socks such as green, cyan, blue, etc. when she returned and bring them over for trading next time.
After the agreement, the two got out of the car.
Seeing the two men getting out of the car, Heidan, who was roasting by the fire, also looked over.
"How did the two of you discuss?"
Heidan stood aside and made room for the two men to come over and warm themselves by the fire.
"Take the 3,000 tons as an example. Add 200 kilograms of duck feathers and 2,000 pairs of socks to what I mentioned before."
"As for the medicines, it's still the same as before."
Afraid that Heidan's appetite was too big and he would not be satisfied with the price, Han Ying reminded him that there were still medicines included in this price.
After hearing the price, Heidan did not speak immediately.
This price was better than before, so he proposed to increase the price, and the other party did increase it, and by a lot.
Although there are ducks and geese raised in Wangshan Village, the number is too small, and the amount of duck and goose feathers that can be produced is limited.
This thing is very warm, and all the big guys specifically asked for quilts made of duck and goose down.
However, Heidan himself doesn't like those light down quilts, he prefers thick and big quilts.
A large quilt made of real material is much warmer than those light down quilts.
But who can blame the big guys for liking it?
These 700 kilograms of wool can be processed into a lot of down after returning home.
"Okay, see you in a week then!"
Heidan thought about it and calculated that he could still make a profit at this price.
After loading all the stuff into the car, Heidan and his men left.
He kept his word and did not send anyone to follow them on both occasions.
Although he didn't know whether the other party could detect the person following him, Heidan thought it was better not to try.
Otherwise, I don’t know if I’ll ever have the chance to meet a client like this who can get those rare materials.
After Heidan and his men left, Han Ying and Lu Yuan stood by the fire and warmed themselves.
It took about five minutes before the fire was put out with snow.
After getting in the car, he released Tangyuan from the space and made sure that there was no one following him before getting out and starting to collect the meteorites.
The number of meteorites today was larger than before. After collecting them for more than an hour, the two returned to the car and rested for more than ten minutes.
Each of them drank a cup of warm milk tea, and then got off the car to continue collecting.
After finishing the job, he packed up the car, took out the helicopter and left the place.
After today's transaction, we also negotiated the next price. It will take longer to collect the meteorite than last time.
So when we returned to Jiangcheng, it was already dawn.
After putting away the helicopter, they took out the RV again.
Lu Yuan was driving, and Han Ying was sitting in the passenger seat, thinking about what to bring back with her.
The two discussed it in the car, and finally Han Ying decided to take out some dried ginger.
Han Ying used the fresh ginger she bought before the end of the world to wash and slice it with a slicer, then placed it directly in the upper space to dry in the shade.
There is nothing better than this in extreme cold.
You can cook some in the cafeteria at noon and let everyone drink a bowl to drive away the cold.
After all, these people are working on the farm now, and they can work more efficiently if they keep their bodies warm.
Otherwise, your hands and feet will be frozen all the time and you won’t be able to do your work properly.
