Chapter 2958
In the past, Furuifeng purchased rice locally on a limited scale, and it is not a traditional grain merchant. There is no long-term operation of purchasing channels in Champa.But Shopkeeper Jia knows that this year’s Champa has a bumper harvest of grain, and there will be a large amount of rice flooding into the grain market. Most of the rice shops in Vung Tau Port will buy at a lower price. As long as Fu Ruifeng’s bid is a little higher, it should not be a problem to complete the purchase task. .
Shopkeeper Jia’s judgment was very accurate, and the measures he took were effective. Champa farmers who came to Vung Tau Port to sell rice could hardly fail to notice the huge advertisement erected on the No. [-] pier.Even illiterate people will definitely be curious about it after seeing it, and they will understand the meaning of this advertisement after a little inquiry.
After the rice boats docked, the farmers didn't have time to rest, so they split up to inquire about the purchase prices of various rice shops in Vung Tau Port.
Compared with the field purchase price, the price at Vung Tau Port is indeed higher, but it is only about [-]% or so. This small gap is really difficult to satisfy the farmers.
After all, transporting grain from the fields to the ship, and then transporting it all the way to Vung Tau Port, and then unloading it for the rice company after selling it, such hard work is only [-]% more income, which is really not worthwhile.
It’s good to say that some farmers who came from a long distance to sell rice in Vung Tau port, counting the consumption on the way back and forth, are almost the same as they sell rice locally, and there is even a risk of subsidizing the travel expenses.
"Shopkeeper, we came from Can Tho, and the one-way journey is four to five hundred miles by water. Please do me a favor. If the price is higher, consider it as a reward for our travel expenses!"
The rice shopkeeper who was sitting in front of the counter didn't even lift his eyelids: "The rice price is posted outside the door, in black and white, you can see it clearly, if you want to sell it, sell it, if you don't want to sell it, go elsewhere, don't block it at the door! "
Someone held a glimmer of hope and continued to persuade: "Shopkeeper, the price of rice in your house is almost the same as that in the countryside of Zhancheng. We will transport the rice here by ourselves, which will save you a lot of time. At least we will pay some shipping fees, shall we?"
Some people also shouted: "It's not worth selling at this price, why don't you wait two more days and see!"
The shopkeeper sneered, slowly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and said, "Look for yourself how many rice boats are on the pier outside, and see clearly! If you don't sell, many people want to sell! In a few more days, Rice from all over the place is here, and the price of rice will only fall, not rise!"
Yes, there are only a few rice shops that buy rice, but there are thousands of farmers who want to sell rice.How can the price of rice go up when more rice comes to the port of Vung Tau?
Unreconciled farmers left the rice shop, trying to find a kind-hearted rice merchant here who was willing to pay a fair price.But the problem is that almost all of these rice merchants in Vung Tau Port come from Haihan, and the purchase price has been agreed by each of them, so it is impossible to make changes for these Champa farmers.
But when they were almost desperate, they still heard good news.
"Furuifeng has harvested rice this year, and the price is [-]% higher than other rice shops!"
The farmers who heard the news quickly inquired: "Where is Fu Ruifeng harvested?"
"Here, there is a big signboard on the pier over there, see it? That's it."
So the farmers hurried to find out the truth.After asking a few rice shops, they no longer have too much expectations for the rice price in Vung Tau Port, and they can count on the extra money they can sell, and they can't ship the rice back home as it is.
Many farmers who heard the news had already gathered on Pier No. [-]. For them, the good news was that the rumors were true, and the purchase price of Furuifeng was indeed [-]% higher than that of other families.
But the bad news is that Furuifeng only accepts polished rice now, and they want as much as they can, but they don’t want the most common rice and brown rice on the market.
Tools for rice inspection and weighing have been arranged on the pier, and the checkout will be done immediately when the goods are sold out.Farmers who sell rice can choose their own settlement method. The white cash and neat stacks of Haihan banknotes are placed where everyone can see, demonstrating the financial strength of Furuifeng.
Most of the farmers have never seen so much cash since they were born, and they wanted to take a closer look, but a dozen or so big-armed guards stood in the middle, preventing idlers from approaching.The brow-level sticks in their hands are enough to keep some people who are about to move rationally.
However, this is not all the means of Fu Ruifeng.Just behind the place where the rice is purchased is Furuifeng's commercial warehouse. All farmers who sell milled rice to Furuifeng can purchase various commodities in the commercial warehouse with the settlement receipt, and all enjoy a [-]% discount.
At the entrance of the store, several glass counters have been placed, and there are various samples that are dazzling enough to make people dazzled.There are children's toys, all kinds of flowered fabrics, good-smelling soaps, shiny glass mirrors, matches that can be ignited with one stroke, and various iron kitchen utensils... At a glance, there are at least a hundred kinds.
There are also cigarettes and craft wine that are usually reluctant to buy, and they can be bought at Fu Ruifeng's store when there is a discount, which is much cheaper than the price of the country peddler.Moreover, there is no mother-in-law around at this time, and many people plan to take this opportunity to buy some.
After working hard for a whole year, it's finally time for the harvest. With money in my pocket, I have to find a way to reward myself.
"Rice sellers, get here and line up, register first, then inspect and weigh the goods, and settle the bill on the spot, no one cheats!"
The high-spirited shopkeeper Jia stood on a high place, holding a tin horn and yelling.Farmers who couldn't hold back had already stepped forward and sold the rice they had brought in. After taking the cash, they went directly to the store behind to make big purchases.
As long as someone can't hold back and starts, someone will naturally follow.Wait and see?nonexistent.In a few days, more and more rice will be shipped to Vung Tau Port. It is hard to say whether Fu Ruifeng will buy it or not. It is better to sell it earlier when it can be sold at a higher price.
And they got the rice money from shopkeeper Jia, and then went to the store and exchanged the rice money for various Haihan products.The money swirled in their hands, and before it was warmed up, it returned to Fu Ruifeng's pocket.
Shopkeeper Jia looked at the long line of rice-making farmers, and couldn't help showing a smug smile on his face.Even if Fu Ruifeng did not purchase rice on a large scale in previous years, after all, its comprehensive strength lies here, and it is not difficult to enter this business.
Moreover, he has seen that farmers will inevitably have consumption needs after receiving cash, and launched promotional activities to meet such needs. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone while completing the purchase task and selling goods at the same time.
As for those farmers who did not make rice into polished rice in advance, they also found that this year’s rice and brown rice cannot be sold at a price, so they can only find a way to find a processing point nearby to see if they can complete rice hulling at a relatively low cost. and rice milling, and then try to sell it at a good price.
When I wrote about the purchase of military rations, I remembered Mr. Ye Shengtao's "Overcharged by Three or Five Bucks". These two chapters can be regarded as a small tribute.
