Chapter 75 Acquisition
Shen Ruoqing went to the county town again.
She first went to the scrap yard, handed over the newly received antiques to the old man who was the gatekeeper of the scrap yard, paid the fee, and then went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Nowadays, people who can work in the supply and marketing cooperative are very proud, and what you can buy depends on their faces. However, Shen Ruoqing is good-looking and sweet-mouthed, and she is willing to give White Rabbit candies to the salesperson in the supply and marketing cooperative. She soon became familiar with the salesperson named Wang Aihui. Through Wang Aihui, Shen Ruoqing found out that Wang Aihui happened to be the niece of Director Wang of the supply and marketing cooperative.
After Shen Ruoqing knew about this relationship, he took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from his schoolbag.
"Sister Wang, I see that the products in our supply and marketing cooperative are selling very well, and they also sell mountain products. I wonder where they get these mountain products from? Do they have the ability to purchase them on their own? I see that these mountain products are in short supply, and there are not many left on the counter."
"We do have the ability to purchase on our own, but these are not my responsibility. They belong to my uncle." Wang Aihui looked at the candies that Shen Ruoqing took out and asked, "Why are you asking these questions?"
Shen Ruoqing chuckled and said, "Sister Wang, I don't mean anything else. It's just that our brigade has a lot of mountain products. The people in the brigade have a hard time making a living, so we want to earn more income. I wonder if the supply and marketing cooperative will accept mountain products from other channels?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Aihui accepted all the White Rabbit milk candies and said, "You'll have to ask our Director Wang, but I can recommend someone for you." White Rabbit milk candies are not cheap. Such a pile weighs at least two kilograms. For the sake of the candies, Wang Aihui was willing to help Shen Ruoqing.
"But let me make it clear. I'm only taking you to see Director Wang. What happens next is up to you. I don't care."
"Thank you, Sister Wang."
Wang Aihui asked the teller from the supply and marketing cooperative next door to help her watch the counter, and took Shen Ruoqing to the office inside the house.
"Director Wang, someone wants to see you." After all, it was a workplace, so Wang Aihui still called her uncle director.
"Come in."
After a glance, he saw that it was his niece who brought people here. Wang Aihui brought the people and left. Shen Ruoqing looked at Director Wang.
Director Wang is of medium build and has a round face. He is holding an enamel cup with the words "Serve the People" printed on it.
"Comrade, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Director Wang, my name is Shen Ruoqing, I'm from Zhongxing Brigade, this is what happened..." Shen Ruoqing said his purpose, and took out various mushroom samples, some other mountain products and agricultural and sideline products such as vermicelli from his backpack. Among these things was a special cigarette.
"These are samples from our team. Our team can guarantee that the quality of the subsequent products will be the same as this sample. Moreover, our team has tractors that can deliver goods to your door, so there is no need to waste the supply and marketing cooperative's vehicles to transport them. It can also avoid losses such as breakage in transit." Shen Ruoqing pushed the special-supplied cigarettes in front of Director Wang.
Director Wang narrowed his eyes. He had seen this kind of cigarette before, when he followed his leader to the provincial capital for a meeting. It was a special cigarette for the provincial capital, and ordinary people could not buy it. This little girl is quite unique.
"Are you sure that everything can reach this quality?" Director Wang checked the goods that Shen Ruoqing brought out. There was indeed no problem with the quality. Now that supplies are scarce, the goods in the supply and marketing cooperative are often sold out. It would be good if they could get more goods. They had thought about going to the countryside to collect goods before, but transportation was a big problem. If they went to the village to purchase, they would have to bear the losses caused by damage during transportation, and there would be labor costs and travel expenses, which would all be included in the cost.
"Don't worry, Director Wang. We will strictly control the quality of the products. When the time comes, you can send someone to check. If there are some that are unqualified, we will take them back immediately."
Director Wang took another sip of water from the enamel cup and said, "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. Just have someone bring the stuff over when the time comes."
Director Wang wrote a note to Shen Ruoqing.
Shen Ruoqing left happily and gave the note to Captain Tang, and he would be able to deliver the goods to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow.
When coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative, Shen Ruoqing also met Shen Xiangbei.
"Little sister, why did you come to the county town without telling me?" Shen Xiangbei has now got the position of section chief as he wished, and is valued by the new director. He is very happy to see Shen Ruoqing, as he got his position as section chief thanks to Shen Ruoqing and Old Lady Ji.
"We're going into the city to do some business." Shen Ruoqing did not hide anything and told Shen Xiangbei that the team was going to sell mountain products. Shen Xiangbei was also very happy.
"Little sister, it's rare for you to come here. Let's go to your fourth brother's house. Your fourth sister-in-law just came back from cutting some meat today."
"No need. I've prepared dinner at home. And my third brother is waiting for me." Shen Ruoqing rejected Shen Xiangbei's kindness.
Shen Xiangbei knew that Shen Ruoqing really didn't want to stay for dinner, so he gave all the colorful tickets he had to Shen Ruoqing.
"Take these bills back to our mother." After becoming the section chief, Shen Xiangbei had more bills in his hands.
Shen Ruoqing collected all these bills.
Since he was already in the county, Shen Ruoqing went to the county hospital.
Shu Lijuan was ready to be discharged from the hospital at this time, and greeted Shen Ruoqing when she saw her.
"It just so happens that my fourth brother has come driving a tractor. Let's go back together." Shu Lijuan and Yang Pingfang followed Shen Ruoqing to work on the tractor.
After returning, Shen Ruoqing told Captain Tang about the acquisition.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Captain Tang was very happy and rang the bell to start a meeting.
Everyone was very happy to hear the news.
"This is all thanks to Miss Ruoqing. If it weren't for Miss Ruoqing's efforts, we wouldn't have this opportunity. Everyone should thank Miss Ruoqing."
"Ruoqing girl is really capable!"
"It's all thanks to Ruoqing girl."
Old Mrs. Ji was smiling and greeting everyone in the crowd. This time, the good boy made her proud.
Someone asked: "So will we collect the eggs?"
Now that the policy is open to raising chickens, everyone is saving eggs. It would be great if eggs could be exchanged for money.
"Eggs break too easily. It's fine to collect eggs, but I can't offer you such a high price. I have to offer you a lower price," said Shen Ruoqing.
"We can weave egg pallets and add some fillers like chopped licorice to reduce transportation losses." Liu Xinyi said, taking out a sample. "This is made by my family. I brought it here as soon as I heard the news. Captain, you can take a look. With this pallet, losses will be greatly reduced."
What Liu Xinyi was holding was similar to the egg tray of later generations, but it was made of straw.
"That's a good idea." Captain Tang nodded. "Let's charge one cent for each egg tray. Everyone can make one. I'll be the main team and collect them."
Shen Ruoqing looked at Liu Xinyi in surprise. Liu Xinyi had the same idea as her? And how come she seemed to have foresight and took out the egg tray in advance? (End of this chapter)
