Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Medicinal materials wholesale station.

As a state-owned purchasing station, the medicinal materials wholesale station occupies a large area.

At the outermost part is a counter, on which various medicinal material samples are displayed, and the prices are told to those who come to buy the herbs.

Further in is the cafeteria. Employees usually have to eat at the medicinal materials wholesale station. They are all formal workers, so of course they don’t have to pay for their own meals.

On the other side of the cafeteria are the warehouse and office.

Yang Guangliang had just inspected the warehouse and was checking the account books in the warehouse worker's hands to see if anything was missing.

This was just a routine checkup and Yang Guangliang didn't take it seriously.

It is basically impossible for the employees here to steal the medicinal materials.

Firstly, medicinal herbs are not food, so what use would they have for others?

Second, all the things here are traditional Chinese medicine. Unless it is a precious medicinal material like bear bile, no one would take it.

Third, even if you want to find medicine, you have to go to the hospital. Western medicines are more effective than Chinese medicines. If you don’t have a prescription and don’t know how to use them, you will suffer if you use them.

Yang Guangliang looked at the account book and found that there was no problem with the quantity, so he put down the account book and prepared to return to the office.

At this time, Ma San, a worker in the warehouse, said, "Stationmaster, the quality of the canteen has declined drastically recently. Everyone is drinking wild vegetable porridge, and the steamed buns have become cornbread, without any oil at all."

Hearing this, Yang Guangliang said helplessly and unhappily: "You think I want to? A small-scale purchasing station like us is certainly not the first supplier."

"Whatever the non-staple food purchasing station obtains must be provided to other units as soon as possible."

"What about the meat processing factory? We don't have many people here, so we can get a pig."

Yang Guangliang looked at the anxious Ma San in silence and pointed in the direction of the steel mill: "A pig? Tens of thousands of people in the steel mill can't get a pig, what can we get?"

He thought of Liu Ping'an's face again.

He added, "Don't worry, I've already found someone to help me. It won't be long before we have meat to eat."

Ma San nodded happily and lay down in the chair to rest.

Yang Guangliang also felt speechless. As long as these workers didn't make mistakes, there was nothing you could do to them. What's more, Ma San was an old employee, so he could do even less to him.

The thought of him losing all his authority as the webmaster made me feel a bit disappointed.

Feeling depressed, he locked the account book in the cabinet in his office and went outside.

The speed of purchasing medicinal materials is now slow.

This terrible drought has lasted for more than two years, and I don’t know how many medicinal herbs have died because of it.

Coupled with the food shortage, people in the countryside have no time to look for medicinal herbs. They might as well use that time to find some wild vegetables to fill their stomachs.

After all, the amount of medicinal materials is small and they are not valuable at all. No one wants to do this kind of loss-making business after spending so much effort to make such a small amount of money.

Yang Guangliang walked outside and felt helpless when he saw the employees who were extremely sleepy.

He stood behind the counter, looking at his position, and suddenly remembered the young man he met yesterday.

Suddenly I couldn't help but laugh.

"I find it hilarious that I actually thought he could get food."

Yang Guangliang did some calculations on the abacus and found himself quite amused.

When did I become so naive?

However, at this time, Yang Guangliang heard an excited voice: "Why are there so many fish? Did they catch them by boat at the seaside?"

The sound was harsh, and it showed how much the speaker's emotions were fluctuating.

Yang Guangliang frowned and looked up, only to find that it was the salesperson at the station. He was about to talk to her.

Suddenly he saw a group of people carrying wooden barrels and walking in the street at the end of the street. The person walking in front was the young man he met yesterday.

"It seems to be called, Liu Pingan?!"

"Isn't he coming here to sell fish to me?!"

When Yang Guangliang thought of this possibility, he walked out of the counter excitedly and watched Liu Ping'an and others walk to the door of the medicinal materials wholesale station and stop.

really!

At this time, Liu Pingan came in with a bucket of fish, looked at Yang Guangliang and said with a smile: "Stationmaster Yang, I don't know if what you said still counts."

……

The third uncle followed Liu Ping'an and others all the way.

However, when the uncle saw the direction of this road, he was a little confused. He walked to Liu Ping'an and asked, "Ping'an, aren't you going to the purchasing station to sell fish? Or are you going to the steel mill? No, the steel mill is not on this road either."

Liu Pingan smiled and said, "I'm going to the medicinal materials wholesale station to sell fish."

"What the hell? A wholesale herbal medicine station, doesn't it only sell herbal medicine? Don't lie to Uncle San."

"How could I lie to you? In fact, every purchasing station has the ability to purchase food. Whether it is a non-staple food purchasing station or a waste purchasing station, they all have a certain amount of purchases. I know the stationmaster of the purchasing station I'm going to. I made an appointment with him to go there as soon as I get something. I can't break my promise."

The third uncle nodded. He was a teacher and knew the consequences of breaking one’s promise.

There was no need for him to say anything more, so he followed Liu Ping'an all the way to the medicinal materials wholesale station and saw Liu Ping'an walk in.

After Liu Ping'an said that to Yang Guangliang, Yang Guangliang's mouth moved with excitement, and his stomach was filled with stomach acid as he looked at these still alive fish.

He hurriedly approached Liu Ping'an, not caring about the fishy smell: "Count it, count it, if I say there is one, then there is one. If you have a candidate, come to me directly, and I will give you a job quota directly, but it can only be limited to the medicinal materials wholesale station."

"Of course. Anyone who can work at the medicinal materials wholesale station, or even work under you, will choose to come here."

Liu Ping'an got the job and felt much happier.

"Can you eat all these fish? If not, I will send them to the purchasing station or steel mill."

Yang Guangliang glared when he heard this.

"Of course it's not enough. We have more than enough here. I'll take whatever you have!"

The commotion here attracted many people to watch. The canteen staff in the medicinal materials wholesale station and Ma San in the warehouse all ran out, each of them was extremely happy.

"How come someone is selling fish here? That's... great!"

"Oh my god, is this fishing or catching fish? Are these fish stupid? Why are there so many of them? They are all fat and big. I estimate they must weigh several hundred kilograms!"

Hearing their conversation, Ma San suddenly chuckled.

caught the attention of others.

"Ma San, do you know something?"

Ma San raised his chin proudly and pointed at Yang Guangliang: "Why do you think others don't go to the purchasing station, but come to us instead? It's all because of our stationmaster!"

"The stationmaster just told me that food will be delivered soon, so we shouldn't worry."

Others were also a little surprised when they heard it.

Usually they always think that the webmaster is useless and just sits idle in the office every day.

I didn't expect it to be so related!

So capable!

"As expected of Stationmaster Yang, I felt he was extraordinary when he first came. In this day and age, being able to get food here is a credit to me."

"I thought so at the time. It's obvious from the temperament of Stationmaster Yang that he is not an ordinary person. How can an ordinary person be so fat?"

Although Yang Guangliang is fat, his hearing is not bad.

He didn't expect that he could tame these unruly workers with just one food purchase.

This is a pleasant surprise.

"Okay, Ping'an, come in first and bring these fish to the warehouse. I'll calculate the price!"
