After making the decision with Gu Weiliang, Xu Nanxing immediately went to a secluded place near the back mountain.
Because this place is close to the cowshed and very remote, few villagers come here, so Xu Nanxing chose this place as the trading location.
She first transferred out a large pile of beets from the space, which were the main items purchased by Gu Weiliang.
The beets touched by this space are all quite large and have a high water content. One beet weighs about 1.5 to 3 kilograms, and some particularly large ones weigh 5 to 6 kilograms, or even over 10 kilograms.
Xu Nanxing also prepared a lot of other vegetables. Gu Weiliang said that he planned to take them to the office cafeteria.
But he now plans to focus his main energy on beets.
However, the market gap for sugar is very large, and Xu Nanxing also agrees with Gu Weiliang's idea of refining sugar.
The sugar content of beets is generally around 15%-20%, and one pound of beets can produce 200 grams of brown sugar, which is quite good.
However, Gu Weiliang and his team have no experience in refining sugar, so there will definitely be some losses.
This can only be done slowly.
Then Xu Nanxing brought out a large pile of salted eggs and preserved eggs.
These things are because the space produces too many eggs every day, including chicken eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs. A small number of them are hatched into cubs, and most of them accumulate over time. Xu Nanxing cannot consume them all by himself, so Xiaoxing pickled them all.
But even if they were pickled eggs, Xu Nanxing couldn’t finish them all by himself!
So she simply took them out and sold them to Gu Weiliang. She didn't pickle goose eggs, but only took out some chicken and duck eggs.
Anyway, pickled foods can be stored for a long time!
Xu Nanxing took out several large snakeskin bags, which were blank and had no patterns printed on them. They were specially used to store things like flour, urea, grain, fertilizer, and feed.
The wholesale price was only a few cents each, and Xu Nanxing bought tens of thousands of various models.
Everything was almost ready. Xu Nanxing even spread some weeds and leaves on top to cover it, and then went to call Gu Weiliang over.
Xu Nanxing also thoughtfully went to the cowshed and asked Uncle Liu to borrow a cart.
Gu Weiliang and the others all arrived, with Xu Nanxing leading the way. When they arrived at their destination, they were all surprised to see a large number of beets and other vegetables under the grass leaves.
But they didn't ask any more questions and just started counting.
After they had finished checking and confirmed that the quality and appearance of the items were intact, they began to discuss the price.
Vegetables are very cheap these days. Ordinary green leafy vegetables are basically a few cents per pound, and radishes and cabbages are only two cents per pound.
Xu Nanxing's beets have high economic value, but she doesn't sell them at a high price, only 3 cents per pound.
Of course, Gu Weiliang and his team didn't plan to eat the beets. Most of them were going to be processed again and refined into sugar.
Other vegetables are sold at 2 cents per pound, while salted eggs are sold at 10 cents each, because ordinary eggs are sold at 3-4 cents each, and the eggs produced by the poultry raised in Xu Nanxing's space are generally larger. Therefore, Xu Nanxing sells pickled eggs at 10 cents each.
In the end, there were more than 300 kilograms of beets, 3 cents per kilogram, a total of 9 yuan. There were more than 200 kilograms of vegetables, 2 cents per kilogram, a total of 4 yuan. There were more than 100 salted eggs and preserved eggs, a total of 10 yuan.
With such a large number of dishes, Xu Nanxing earned 23 yuan.
Touching the banknotes in her hand, it was the first time for her to do this kind of business of earning a few cents. She could only sigh that selling vegetables really didn't make much money!
Fortunately, the crops are grown in space, so there is no need to buy fertilizers, and Xu Nanxing does not need to spend time and energy to take care of them. Otherwise, this little money would be a loss in her opinion!
It turns out that selling clothes and cosmetics are still the most profitable!
A 0.8 gram eyebrow pencil can be sold for 79 yuan!
This kind of highly profitable business is what Xu Nanxing likes to do!
Unfortunately, she cannot do business openly now, so she can only do some small job of buying groceries secretly!
Watching Gu Weiliang and the others busy piling vegetables onto the cart, Xu Nanxing suddenly thought of something and asked quietly, "Do you have a pot? If you're going to use it to refine sugar, it won't be very effective in one go!"
Xu Nanxing saw a short video about refining brown sugar. In the video, several large pots were lined up to boil sugarcane juice together. When the sugar water in the front pot was almost boiled, it would be poured into the back pot. The water would be stirred in the pot with a spatula constantly to prevent the brown sugar water from getting stuck at the bottom. After refining for several hours, the last pot would produce the solid brown sugar commonly seen on the market.
If we only use one pot to refine sugar, it will take forever to refine these 300 kilograms of sugar beets!
What's more, Xu Nanxing still has several thousand kilograms of beets waiting to be sold!
If you delay too much, she might look for a second place!
It just so happened that she had a pot in her hand, which she could sell to them so that they could speed up the process!
As soon as the words came out, several people paused, and Gu Weiliang said: "This...we can only get one pot."
It is the old pot that Gu’s father and mother use.
Industrial tickets are really hard to get, and they can't gather enough industrial tickets to buy a pot for the time being, so they can only borrow the pot from Gu's father during non-meal times.
The big iron pot at the educated youth site was used by all the educated youth. It was not easy for them to carry, and it was even more inconvenient to boil brown sugar at the educated youth site.
I can only find a remote place and simmer it slowly in a small pot.
Xu Nanxing said at the right moment, "I can get those small iron pots for home use. 30 yuan each. Do you want them? Oh, by the way, how many do you want?"
Gu Weiliang and others were also shocked when they heard this, and looked at Xu Nanxing in surprise.
I didn't expect that the other party could get controlled items like iron pots. It would be very difficult to get them without connections, because refined iron is also in short supply in the country.
In this era, many special steels still require foreign exchange and can only be imported from abroad to barely meet domestic demand.
And iron pans, a household necessity, are not often sold even in the town’s supply and marketing cooperatives!
They were of course surprised that Xu Nanxing was able to get it, and more than one bite.
But they didn't ask too much. Everyone has secrets, and they don't need to dig into the origins of each other's things.
Gu Weiliang finally agreed with Xu Nanxing that they needed two iron pots.
Xu Nanxing also immediately said that she happened to have two pots and would send them to his home later.
Upon hearing this, Gu Weiliang didn't hesitate and directly paid her 60 yuan.
Seeing that the other party was so decisive, Xu Nanxing did not waste any time. An hour later, he selected two iron pots and sent them to Gu's father.
Xu Nanxing was in a good mood after earning a total of 83 yuan today. He went back and showed off to Zhang Luyao.
Unexpectedly, the next second, Zhang Luyao said to her: "Nanxing, I want to open a factory in the village!"
Xu Nanxing:!!!
