I am farming in the real world

Chapter 79: Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors

Hangmao Building, inside the Jin Grain and Oil Company.

Jin Lizhi, the company's boss, walked with a brisk pace and a smile on his face into the reception room.

Upon seeing the rumored boss of Red Star Trading, Jin Lizhi felt as if his entire being was being seen through by the other party's eyes.

That feeling of being seen through was like a primary school student being called to the teacher's office after class, with awkwardness all over!

"Boss Shang, welcome, welcome! There was a bit of a traffic jam on the road just now, I really failed to greet you properly," Jin Lizhi squeezed out a stiff smile.

"Brother Jin, you're too polite! Let's just chat about business normally, just like on WeChat, no need to be so formal." Boss Shang nodded, inviting the other party to take a seat, acting as if he were on his home turf.

He casually waved his hand, telling the two iron golem drivers and bodyguards to wait outside the door.

That calm and composed demeanor made Jin Lizhi sigh in his heart: "This is a real big shot!"

Because Jin Lizhi had only seen this kind of temperament from the big shots sitting on the stage as specially invited guests and chairmen of the Rizhao Grain and Oil Association during the opening annual meeting.

Of course, the reason he had this preconceived notion was also because Boss Shang, this [cunning merchant villager], after absorbing a large amount of human book knowledge, such as books like 'The Actor's Self-Cultivation,' and through a period of practical exploration, had already learned the pinnacle of acting and expression control from humans.

You must know that the villagers in the MC game all maintain one expression until the Game Over.

For Boss Shang, who appeared in the real world, imitating the demeanor of big shots in commercial films and videos of interviews with the richest people was naturally a piece of cake.

So, with these prerequisites, once this strategist began to manipulate human nature, he was much stronger than this young man, Chen Jue.

......

After the two chatted for a few words, the reception room began to be filled with a harmonious atmosphere.

In particular, Jin Lizhi personally made tea and entertained this predecessor who spoke eloquently.

After the polite pleasantries were over, Chen Shang beckoned to the bodyguard waiting outside the door, asking him to take a plastic bag-sealed soybean sample from his briefcase and place it on the table, and directly said: "Brother Jin, this is the latest batch of soybeans from Red Star Trading that will arrive at the port soon. Take a look at the sample quality, and feel free to quote a number for how much you can take."

As soon as Jin Lizhi heard that the main event was coming, he immediately restrained his previous posture of listening to the teachings of a big shot, picked up the soybean samples and carefully looked at them.

However, the more Jin Lizhi looked, the stranger his expression became: "Brother Shang, are you sure these are soybeans grown on the 毛子 side? Why do they look so much like the Black Nong 48 variety!"

As the person in charge of Jin Grain and Oil, Jin Lizhi had been in this industry for more than 20 years.

He could basically figure out what kind of soybean it was with a touch and a look.

Especially the soybeans imported from North Russia, Rizhao Port has also imported them before. Most of them are varieties unique to the 毛子 side, such as Lipuska, Magadan, Volga, Heilongjiang soybeans, etc.

Because the climate in the Russian Far East is much harsher than that in the three northeastern provinces of China.

In the survival proverbs of the 毛子, the cold winter is their best friend.

The same goes for the crops they grow!

Although the black soil there is very fertile, if you want to grow a large area of soybeans in the Far East, the first thing is to be able to withstand low temperatures and severe cold.

This has led to differences in the appearance of soybeans produced in the two places.

Taking the simple soybean pod as an example, the soybean pods produced by domestic soybeans and American genetically modified soybeans are mostly in three colors: yellow, green, and purple.

But the 毛子's soybeans are a bit maverick, and most of the soybean pods they grow are actually dark black!

It's the same principle as 'Southern oranges and northern trifoliate oranges'.

People who don't know it think it's a variety mutation, but in fact, the difference in soybean seeds inside is very subtle.

Only insiders like Jin Lizhi can clearly distinguish the bean seeds after getting them.

"Brother Jin has good eyesight! These are domestic varieties of Black Nong 48 and Heihe 43 grown in the Far East, but they have been localized and improved on the 毛子 side. Although the oil yield is not as good as those genetically modified soybeans in America, it is healthier." Boss Shang explained with a slight smile.

"Ah? Localized improvement? Use our soybean seeds to improve them?" Jin Lizhi was slightly stunned.

Because the 毛子 family has a bunch of cold-resistant and drought-resistant excellent soybean varieties that they don't use, why would they need to use other countries' soybeans for improvement?

Isn't that just being full and doing nothing!

If an ordinary person mentioned this unreliable thing, he would definitely spray the other party with a face full of saliva.

But the one who said this was Boss Shang, who has profound routines.

Then it is most likely 'true'!

So Jin Lizhi self-persuaded, self-brainwashed, and incidentally imagined the image of a super-rich man with his own large farm and breeding base in a certain place in the Far East, and then lowered his voice and inquired: "Brother Shang, these beans are really good! If the procedures are complete, non-genetically modified soybeans are very popular in the market now!"

"I just don't know how much output you can supply?"

Boss Shang showed a mysterious smile when he heard the words, knowing that the human in front of him had fallen into the layers of traps he had set, so he raised a thumb and said: "This number, I don't know if your Jin Grain can eat it?"

"One thousand tons?"

Jin Lizhi cautiously reported a number first.

Seeing that the big shot in front of him did not say anything for a long time, Jin Lizhi swallowed and continued to guess: "One… one ten thousand tons?"

You must know that their Jin Grain and Oil is just a small and medium-sized enterprise with a medium-sized vegetable oil factory under its name.

When the market is good, it can squeeze eight or nine thousand tons of soybeans a year, and any more will max out the production line's capacity, and the capital chain will not be able to keep up.

What's more, if they reluctantly take the big shot's 10,000 tons, the old batch of cooperative suppliers will have emotions.

Seeing that this human being had almost revealed his bottom line, the big-nosed merchant continued to show off with green eyes: "One ship is 10,000 tons, and recently our Red Star Trading will have dozens of similar flights arriving at the port."

"Seve… several hundred thousand tons?"

Jin Lizhi was shocked when he heard this amazing number, and while calculating the market value of this batch of Far Eastern soybeans, a few traces of panic appeared on his face: "Brother Shang, this number is too much! Our Jin Grain is just a small business, if the price is right, taking three or four thousand tons would be the limit."

The big-nosed merchant smiled slightly when he heard this: "It's okay, Brother Jin, take as much as you can! No need to force yourself. I have a discount list here, the more you buy, the more discounts you get, just give me a reply after you consider it."

After saying this, Boss Shang asked the bodyguard played by the iron golem to hand over a document again.

By the way, he got Jin Lizhi's consent and directly pulled his WeChat into a group chat labeled 'Red Star Trading · Phase 1 Soybean Ordering Group'.

At first, Jin Lizhi didn't care much about this group.

But after reading the price on the discount list that Boss Shang gave him, his eyes widened: "Damn it! Can the soybeans produced by the 毛子 family be sold like this? Are they crazy from poverty!"

"For every additional thousand tons ordered, there is an additional 1% discount?"

"If I order 10,000 tons, wouldn't I be able to get a 10% discount!"

Jin Lizhi, who pays attention to the price trend of soybean futures every day, immediately realized when he saw this abnormal discount list that what was falling in front of him was either a windfall or a huge trap.

Along with looking at Boss Shang, his eyes had a few more doubts than the original awe.

Because the price of soybeans has always been open and transparent in the market!

The recent price of domestic soybeans is stable at 4,800 yuan/ton.

The price of genetically modified soybeans arriving at the port in the US Gulf and West Coast regions fluctuates around 4,500 yuan per ton.

As for the 毛子 soybeans, which only account for a few percent of the market share, although they are good non-genetically modified goods, they can only be sold for a maximum of 5,600 yuan per ton because the oil yield and soybean meal rate are not as good as the American technology-intensive soybeans.

Selling soybeans at a discount on this market basis is not taking money out of your own pocket to subsidize it?

He, Jin Lizhi, has never heard of such a business that is known to lose money at a glance in Rizhao for so many years!

With such concerns, Jin Lizhi, the boss of Jin Grain and Oil, originally planned to listen to how Boss Shang would explain the trick in this discount list.

Unexpectedly, this mysterious big shot finished drinking the tea and then left.

This free and easy demeanor made Jin Lizhi a little confused.

If he really encountered a deliberate 'liar', then the other party should be trying their best to fool him into paying and placing an order at this time.

If he leaves so freely, how can he deceive?

"Can it really be sold so cheaply?"

"If I can get a few points off the discount, the factory can save millions a year just by buying beans." Jin Lizhi became a little suspicious.

But when he saw that in the newly added small group, there were actually a bunch of familiar peers on WeChat @ing the group owner to report the number of reservations, he immediately realized that he was probably too cautious!

Reporting the number of reservations doesn't cost money, and you don't even have to pay a deposit, where can you find such a good resource supplier?

If it is a liar, he would definitely not do such a good thing of rushing to send money!

Looking at the chat messages of everyone in the group, knowing that there will be a ship of spot soybeans arriving at the port at 8 pm the day after tomorrow, Jin Lizhi hesitated for a moment, ran to the finance department to ask about the company's funds, and carefully reported a number of 4,000 tons in the group.

Soon, he received a reply from @Red Star Trading's Mr. Shang: "OK, Mr. Jin, your goods will arrive in port next week."

"@Everyone, deliver the first batch of 10,000 tons of spot goods the day after tomorrow evening. Those who are free are welcome to come and check the quality."

So, under the call of the group owner, dozens of executive-class cars such as Audi A8s, BMW 7 Series, and Mercedes-Benz S-Class gathered in the dock parking lot of Rizhao Port that night.

Those who got out of the cars were all bosses of small and medium-sized enterprises of similar scale to Jinliang Oils and Fats.

After arriving at the dock, these people looked at each other with wary expressions.

Because in the Rizhao grain and oil market, competitors are all in competition with each other, usually relying on large companies like COFCO to drink a few mouthfuls of soup.

In order to grab the spot soybeans arriving at the port, or sell oil and soybean meal, sometimes even friction and grudges would arise, and it was normal for them to be at odds with each other.

Even Jin Lizhi, who was known for his good temper, saw a few competitors with whom he didn't get along in the crowds here and there.

"Damn it! Why are there so many people?"

"This Mr. Shang of Red Star Trading is really rough!"

"Isn't that right!"

"Throwing down more than a million yuan in red envelopes, he stirred up the old guys in Rizhao Port who deal with grain and oil."

"This is not 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors' anymore, he wants to wipe us all out in one fell swoop!"

"Old Lin, you're exaggerating! Our group needs millions of tons of soybeans a year. No matter how awesome Red Star Trading is, they can't supply so many spot goods, right?"

Several familiar bosses were smoking cigarettes on the side, squatting on the open space of the dock, discussing fiercely.

Seeing this, Jin Lizhi pricked up his ears, took out a pack of Diamond Lotus cigarettes, and mingled in.

He greeted acquaintances and took the opportunity to inquire about more inside information about this Red Star Trading from the crowd, so as not to lag behind his competitors.

… …

In this atmosphere of waiting in the night breeze, a sharp-eyed boss suddenly shouted: "Red Star Trading's ship has arrived!"

A group of middle-aged bosses dropped their cigarette butts and trotted all the way to the berthing area for unloading soybeans, looking forward to it.

Before long, under the ultra-high lumen lights of the dock, a silver-gray painted bulk carrier full of modern technology slowly approached the berthing area under the traction of several small tugboats.

"Ironclad 001?"

"Which logistics company's ship is this?"

"Never heard of it, but this ship looks a bit high-end!"

"This should be the latest double-powered ten-thousand-ton freighter, right? Fully loaded, it can probably run at twenty or thirty knots!" Several middle-aged bosses stared at the舷 and discussed.

In the field of shipbuilding, appearance is justice.

This brand-new bulk carrier, at this moment, is the most beautiful boy in the entire berthing area as soon as it enters the port.

Several knowledgeable people took out their mobile phones and took photos and videos all the way.

When the ship was parked and the zipper-like hatch cover was opened, the golden soybeans inside, illuminated by the dock lights, appeared full of grains, and a fragrance of soybeans wafted in the wind.

The scene of this fully loaded ten thousand tons of soybeans directly made the eyes of these bosses present stare straight!

"It's spot beans! Not stored beans!"

"I can smell the fragrance of these freshly picked beans!"

"Damn it! Such good quality is actually being sold at a discount?"

There was a commotion among the onlookers on the dock.

Especially the three middle-aged bosses who placed the first orders, showed a look of elation as if 'I will definitely make a profit this time', boasting to everyone that their goods were inside, attracting envy and jealousy from many competitors.

When Red Star Trading's finance staff arrived at the dock, and in front of these onlookers, they counted the payment and began to deliver the first batch of 10,000 tons of soybeans.

Those bosses who pre-ordered later, including Jin Lizhi, all slapped their thighs and looked regretful: "Damn it! I was one step late in placing the order!"

"Mr. Shang contacted me first!"
