Chapter 944 is a good time to take the opportunity to lower the price

  When Li Tieniu entered the village, he was in a panic.

   A group of hens who were planing food at the root of the fence, after a streaky rooster clucked vigilantly, all immediately retreated behind the big rooster.

  There is a group of dogs at the entrance of the village. Originally, this time is the estrus season for bitches. The common people call it "Qiyangzi", which provoked a large group of dogs to fight there.

   As a result, Li Tieniu yelled loudly, and the dogs roared in fright, and all ran away with their tails between their legs.

   Li Tieniu has creepy hair on his body, even dogs are afraid of him.

  Although the dogs and dogs were restless, the little children in the village were amused when they saw it: "Wang Xiaohu, your brother-in-law is here, and he is carrying a big bag!"

  The latter sentence is the key point, the little boy surrounded him, all looked at Li Tieniu and smiled.

  Li Tieniu opened the bag and found several bags of toffee inside.

   Immediately tore open a bag, and just about to share the candy, his brother-in-law ran up and hugged Li Tieniu's thigh: "Brother-in-law, I will share it with them."

  Li Tieniu rubbed the little guy's head, then handed him the toffee.

  Many adults in the village also rushed out after hearing the news. When Wang Xiaocui’s grandfather saw Li Tieniu, his beard straightened with joy: "Tie Niu, why didn't you bring Xiaocui back?"

   "Master, Xiaocui is opening a big shopping mall in Chuncheng." Li Tieniu went up to support the old man.

  Grandpa Wang didn't understand: "What shopping mall?"

   "It's a store bigger than a supply and marketing cooperative." Li Tieniu gave a relatively simple explanation.

   "Okay, my Xiaocui has become the manager of the supply and marketing cooperative." Mr. Wang was even happier.

  In this era, materials are king, and supply and marketing cooperatives are the best units.

   Village head Guo also came over after hearing the news, said hello to Li Tieniu, and then saw Liu Qingshan: "Oh, Mr. Liu is here too, haha, rare visitor!"

   Village Chief Guo ran up, held Liu Qingshan's palm with both hands, and shook it vigorously. The enthusiasm was closer than seeing relatives.

   "Uncle Village Chief, I'm back too." Lao Wang was a bit annoyed, I'm still a living person, as if I didn't look at it.

  The village head glared at him: "What are you talking about, you little bastard, you are from this village, and you are not a guest."

  The treatment is too poor, Wang Yufeng will be wilted immediately.

   It's no wonder that Village Chief Guo is so enthusiastic about Liu Qingshan. In the past two years, Dongshan Village has changed a lot.

  Relying on the big tree of Longteng Company, the laborers in the village are basically helping out in the company. After two years, almost every family has become a household with ten thousand yuan.

  So in the eyes of Village Chief Guo, Liu Qingshan is their God of Wealth.

   "Uncle Village Chief, I see that there are many brick houses built in the village." Liu Qingshan also greeted enthusiastically.

  He came from the countryside and knows what rural people care about most. The first is houses, the second is land, and the third is agricultural machinery.

   "Mr. Liu, it's not all about getting rich with your company." Village head Guo was full of joy. The village is rich, and he, the village head, has a solid waist.

  Liu Qingshan waved his hand: "It was done with the help of everyone."

   That's what he said, but Village Chief Guo knew it well: he did this before, why didn't he get rich?

   While chatting, Ding Shan came with a group of people. He first hugged Liu Qingshan and said:

   "You guys are here, throwing my brother alone in the ravine, you are eating delicious food in big cities, really heartless."

  Although he complained in his mouth, his face was cheerful.

  In the past two years, Ding Shan has really gotten used to staying here: the villagers, old and young, all respect him very much.

   There are also those big girls and little daughter-in-laws who like to join him when they have nothing to do.

  He has the final say on the affairs of the company alone, he is like a king.

  Liu Qingshan patted Ding Shan on the shoulder: "It's really hard work for you, this time I will exchange you back to the city."

   "Don't, it's better for me to suffer hardships alone. The old man taught us that suffering comes first and pleasure comes later." Ding Shan immediately began to sing high-profile.

   "You, this is a joy to miss Shu!" Liu Qingshan also laughed.

  Liu Qingshan greeted the others again, and then prepared to go to Dingshan's residence.

   Village head Guo still had to drag him to his house, but Liu Qingshan knew that he was in a hurry, and he was not prepared, so it was troublesome, so he agreed to come to the door tomorrow.

  Followed Dingshan and the others to the station, just behind the village, there was a large row of brick houses newly built, with more than 20 rooms, and it was still fully occupied.

   It happened to be dinner time, and these people from Longteng Company were all eating in a big three-room cafeteria.

   These people are basically veterans. When they saw Liu Qingshan, they all stood up and called out "Mr. Liu!"

  Liu Qingshan smiled and waved: "Sit down, let's have dinner together."

  He looked at the meals on the table. The staple food was rice and steamed buns. There were four dishes: stewed pork vermicelli, mapo tofu, fried fungus with cabbage, and a big braised fish. In the middle of the table was a large bowl of sauerkraut soup.

   The food is still available, Liu Qingshan nodded, these people are all physically strong, and all of them have left their families and careers, and the treatment here is of course better.

  Someone gave Liu Qingshan extra bowls and chopsticks, so he sat at a table with Ding Shan and others to eat.

  After eating two bites, Li Tieniu also ran back empty-handed, and it seemed that he had delivered the gift to his father-in-law's house.

  As for why he didn't eat at the old man's house, it's very simple. With his appetite, it is estimated that the meals for the whole family are not enough for him alone.

  While eating, Liu Qingshan chatted with Ding Shan about the situation here.

   Overall, it is relatively smooth.

   Both sides are tacit, so the transaction is very smooth.

  Cargo no longer passes through Heihe, after all the ports over there are closed, and there is no railway there.

  It is only a hundred miles away from Sun Wu, and there is a train station over there, where wagons can be obtained, so it has become the main channel for goods to enter and exit.

  After several months of operation, some places came up to make troubles, but these were small things, and they were quickly settled. Of course, there was no shortage of greetings from the border guards behind the scenes.

  As for the goods, there is nothing else in Maozi's side, except steel, timber, and chemical fertilizers.

  In addition, there are some special products from Maozi, such as razors, nesting dolls, etc. These are mainly supplied to shopping malls, and the quantity is limited.

  As for the oil and gas resources that will become the top priority in the future, it is not yet possible. This strategic resource must be led by the government.

  In the past two years, Maozi's side has become a mess, and all kinds of daily necessities are even more scarce.

  So both sides take what they need, and both earn a lot of money.

  Ding Shan raised a finger and waved it in front of Liu Qingshan's eyes. Liu Qingshan immediately understood: the annual net profit is over 100 million!

  This is not counting the transactions of valuables such as gold and jade, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a wealth of money.

  However, these two days are relatively free, because the river is about to be bombed in various places along the river. After the river is opened, the ice platoons have run out before the boat can pass.

  This process is estimated to last until April. In the middle month, the transaction can only be suspended.

  After dinner, Ding Shan led Liu Qingshan to the warehouse for a stroll.

  Here is a huge freight yard, and the general goods are stacked in the open air, covered by sheds.

   Logs with a thickness of one arm or several arms are stacked neatly.

   Bundles of steel, shining with light blue luster.

  Bags of chemical fertilizers have long been ordered by major farms, and will be distributed to various places one after another through the land reclamation system.

   "Qingshan, these are all money!" Ding Shan also felt a sense of accomplishment.

  Liu Qingshan nodded, feeling a little jealous in his heart: Mao Zi's resources are really too rich.

  These are still visible on the surface, and there are various resources buried deep underground.

   Later, why Maozi is so poor is not because he controls most of the resources of Europa.

  If the great emperor gets angry and cuts off Europe's oil and gas supply, the whole of Europe will be shivering in the cold wind.

  Liu Qingshan began to ponder in his heart: Should we take advantage of the current chaos and fish in troubled waters to order more oil and gas?

  If this is put on for decades, it will be developed.

  The other half of the warehouse is filled with our products, mainly food and daily necessities, which are the most lacking in Maozi at this stage.

  In the past two years, the domestic manufacturing industry has developed rapidly, so there is no need to worry about production capacity, but quality must be carefully checked.

  Walking around, walking to a few rows of warehouses, these are all newly built closed warehouses, not the open-air ones.

  The things stored inside are of course more expensive.

  Ding Shan opened one, Liu Qingshan went in and walked around, good guy, it's full of gold bricks, and top-quality Russian jade.

   "What is this, a spear?" Li Tieniu picked up the big guy with a length of more than two meters, just like the big spears in ancient Europe, but with some curvature.

  Liu Qingshan also blinked: "Is this ivory?"

  Li Tieniu waved the elephant tusk in his hand twice: "There are elephants over there?"

   "Should be a mammoth."

   Liu Qingshan suddenly remembered that in the permafrost zone of Siberia, there are a huge number of mammoths frozen.

  Actually, mammoths have only been extinct for more than 10,000 years.

  Mammoth tusks in other places may have been petrified and gradually turned into fossils, but Siberia is an exception, and the ivory is very well preserved.

   Those of high quality, basically the same as new, can replace the ivory of Asian and African elephants for carving and processing into works of art.

  Ding Shan didn't care too much: "It was given by Medvic from the Bear Gang. They said it could be used as a decoration. Whose living room do you think put this thing in the living room? It's too annoying."

   "Then you tell Medvic, how many we want."

  Liu Qingshan knows the value of mammoth ivory. After African elephants and Asian elephants have been vigorously protected, mammoth ivory has become the best substitute.

   Mammoth ivory of average quality can cost tens of thousands per kilogram.

  Like the one played by Li Tieniu, it weighs more than 30 kilograms, so it is worth at least three to five million yuan.

  After listening to what Liu Qingshan said, Ding Shan knew that this ivory must be worth a lot.

  So he smiled and said: "I guess a box of Laobaigan can be exchanged for one. When the people from the Bear Gang come over, I will talk to them."

   "No one cares about this thing at all, but it's not easy to dig."

  Of course it is not easy to dig. If it is done manually, it will definitely not work, and a large machine must be used.

  Believe in the temptation of Lao Baigan, Maozi must work hard to do this job.

  Li Tieniu was very interested in this big ivory tusk. Seeing another one beside him, he asked Li Tie to fight with him and have a spear fight.

  Of course Li Tie wouldn’t play around with him, so Li Tieniu held a long ivory and turned into a warrior like Don Quixote, rushed out of the warehouse and went to fight with someone.

   Liu Qingshan's advice came from behind: "Don't break the ivory, this thing is quite valuable."

  Ding Shan also looked at it and shook his head, and then led Liu Qingshan to a box: "This is also brought by Medvic, and he said he was looking for someone to set a price."

  Open the box, under the illumination of the light, the brilliance inside is dazzling.

  There should be all kinds of gems in the box, but Liu Qingshan is not a professional appraiser, so he can't name so many complicated gems.

   It seems that it can only be taken back, and the experts from Shanhaizhai are called to identify it.

  There must be value, but the key is how big the problem can be.

   Maozi has a vast land and rich resources, and is also rich in various gems. This is also a good trading strategy.

   Compared with those bulky steel and wood, gemstones are not so eye-catching.

  The key is Maozi’s side. The lack of supplies is almost crazy. Although gems are good, they are inedible and chewable. This is a good time to take the opportunity to lower the price.

  Turning the warehouse around, Liu Qingshan was very satisfied. After returning to Dingshan's residence, the two chatted for a while before going to sleep.

  The next day, Liu Qingshan took a gift and went to the village head Guo’s house to visit, then went to Li Tieniu’s father-in-law’s house, and Guo Zi’s house.

  Because of the suspension of trading, the freight yard is not very busy here, just transfer fertilizers, steel and the like to Sun Wu Railway Station.

   Clean up, and the next day, Liu Qingshan led Li Tie and Li Tieniu to prepare to cross the river.

  Although Liu Qingshan is not very happy to go to Maozi's side, but this time he has a heavy responsibility, and he can't shrink back.

   If we wait for the river to open up, it will take at least half a month. Anyway, although heavy vehicles cannot run on the river, it can hold people, so there is no problem at all.

  Ding Shan drove them all the way to the river.

  The river wind is whistling, and the sight is desolate. The edges of some river chazi have been cultivated, and there are water birds returning early, hunting on the shore.

   Looking at it from a distance, it has a long neck and long legs. I don't know if it is a red-crowned crane or an egret.

   There are a few of them, still walking on the ice, not afraid of the cold.

   "How do you contact the other party?" Li Tieniu looked at the empty surroundings, and it seemed that he could only go there quietly at night.

  Ding Shan smiled and led them to walk tens of meters, and then two people came out of the ground in front of him unexpectedly, which surprised Li Tieniu.

   Taking a closer look, this place turned out to be a cellar.

  The basement is a unique building here, which is to dig a space under the ground for people to live in.

  Especially in winter, it is warmer, and of course it is more hidden.

  Two veterans on duty led Liu Qingshan and the others into the cellar, and saw an old-fashioned radio station on top of the cabinet.

   Obviously, this is used to communicate with Maozi on the other side.

  Li Tieniu was delighted when he saw it: "This is authentic again, and it's a radio station. Why do I feel like it's a spy connection?"
