Chapter 123 Can you make a fortune by trading corn? Here I come!
As mentioned before, I'm not very interested.
But the only thing he did was reselling corn.
She is familiar with this. Isn't it the same as selling potatoes in Dayan Village?
But she was curious about what kind of company was buying corn in Shenzhen and what it was used for...
"Reselling corn? What companies are buying corn?" she couldn't help but ask.
Seeing Ye Ying showing a very interested expression, An Yongbo subconsciously asked: "What's the matter, are you interested? But it's true, most of the corn harvested in Shenzhen Market is traded from you."
Ye Ying smiled and said, "To be honest, I came here to learn about the business of the bosses here. I came here to learn from them!"
"Ha, I guess you didn't come here just to send my daughter back. You have your own agenda. You're here to make some money."
After An Yongbo finished teasing, he said seriously: "Then let me talk to you."
"The harvested corn is usually sold to foreign factories and used as feed. Everyone knows that the corn production in Northeast China is large and the price is cheap, but foreigners cannot handle the transportation from Northeast China to Shenzhen, so before this, their corn was shipped from abroad."
"Later, someone went to negotiate with these factories. After the negotiation was completed, the purchased corn was transported to the docks in coastal cities, shipped by sea, passed through Guangzhou, and finally shipped to Shekou Dock."
An Yongbo explained it in great detail, and Ye Ying couldn't help but exclaim:
"Wow, you know all this stuff, why don't you just do it yourself? It sounds like it should be pretty lucrative!"
"I don't want to do this." An Yongbo shook his head with regret. "This speculative business can make a fortune, but it is not sustainable. There will be more and more people doing this in the future."
But Ye Ying didn't think so.
Although what An Yongbo said is correct, this is indeed a speculative business and there are certain risks. You never know when you will fail.
But what she lacks most now is a way to make quick money in a short period of time.
With the funds, she can pursue the career she wants to pursue.
An Yongbo suddenly looked at Ye Ying:
"Do you want to do it? If you do, I can tell you about several foreign companies that buy corn, but you have to talk to them yourself. And as for transportation, I can also recommend you several shipping companies.
"But you have to negotiate all these by yourself. I can't help you with anything else."
Ye Ying blinked in surprise. Did she hear it right? An Yongbo, who she had only met once, was willing to provide her with so many resources.
Is this a pie that fell from the sky?
"Is this okay?" She hesitated.
"That's up to you." An Yongbo spread his hands. "Actually, I think it would be best if you could take the 2,000 and go back to your hometown to live a good life. As a woman, why would you go through so much trouble?"
"After all, this is really tiring."
"But I think you are still very courageous. You came here without any hesitation after traveling thousands of kilometers. I'm sure you didn't think you would just take 2,000 yuan and go back, right?
“So if you really want to do it, you can give it a try.”
Ye Ying moved her lips but said nothing.
What An Yongbo said really touched her heart!
If the flood hadn't destroyed all the crops in Dayan Village, she could have helped sell the village's corn.
After the flood, everything was gone, and it took about 130 days for corn to mature. If she wanted to "dump" corn, she had to find a way to buy it from somewhere else.
This alone is a problem.
"What are you thinking about?" Seeing that she remained silent, An Yongbo said again:
"As for the funding, you can ask the other party to open a letter of credit for you." An Yongbo added, "This is the experience summarized by those who have done it before. With a letter of credit, you don't have to worry about the funding. It's a sure win!"
Ye Ying couldn't help but give An Yongbo a thumbs up, "I'm moved by what you said."
"Please give me the contact information and addresses of those factories and freight companies, and I will visit them tomorrow!"
I can’t worry about all that. Now that I’m here, I have to ask!
The Northeast is so big. If the profit from "trading" corn is enough to motivate her, then there is no harm in her making a few more trips.
But if it's a job that can't be done, forget it!
The Shenzhen Stock Exchange is full of gold, and it won’t lose any money if you go and have a chat.
Thinking of this, Ye Ying took out a small notebook and wrote down the factories, contacts and phone numbers.
When she was about to say goodbye to the father and daughter, she couldn't help but ask An Yongbo, "Mr. An, I feel like you know a lot. Can I ask what kind of business you are in?"
An Yongbo smiled mysteriously and said, "It's a secret. I can't tell you."
It is indeed a bit presumptuous. Nowadays, people with ability and ideas are making a lot of money quietly. Who would be stupid enough to tell others about it?
Ye Ying smiled awkwardly, said a few clichés like "study hard" to An Xiaotong, and decided to say goodbye to them.
When I walked to the door, I suddenly heard An Xiaotong's voice from behind.
"Auntie Ye! Wait a minute!"
Ye Ying turned around and saw An Xiaotong running towards her with a reluctant look on her face. In her hand was a piece of paper with two strings of numbers written crookedly on it.
"Auntie, I'll give you our home phone number."
Ye Ying took the white paper, put it in her pocket, and rubbed An Xiaotong's head. "Okay, Xiaotong, I'll call you when I have time!"
After all, the child had been with her for some time, and Ye Ying was somewhat reluctant to let her go. She pinched her face again before letting go.
I hope her father and stepmother will treat her well.
Suddenly, An Yongbo spoke:
"If you need my help, you can also call the number below. This is my office number."
Ye Ying said with gratitude: "Okay!"
This trip was not in vain, and saving An Xiaotong was not in vain.
After leaving the restaurant, Ye Ying prepared to find a guesthouse nearby, stay there tonight, and visit these factories tomorrow.
On the way, we passed a Xinhua Bookstore.
She stopped at the door for a few seconds, then went in decisively and bought a book related to foreign trade.
It was because she found that her existing knowledge reserves seemed insufficient.
If she guessed correctly, the "letter of credit" that An Yongbo had just mentioned that left her confused should be explained in detail in this book.
I didn't have the courage to ask at first because I felt a little embarrassed.
After buying the book, Ye Ying stayed in a nearby guesthouse which looked well decorated.
As Ye Ying had been traveling for several days and had not had enough rest, she looked tired and old.
The owner of the guesthouse knew she was from another place as soon as he saw her, and his eyes immediately showed a hint of arrogance:
"One person? What kind of room do you want?"
