Siheyuan: Picked up by a goddess in 48 years

No one wants to reveal their real names, and they are all called by pseudonyms or nicknames.

Lao Wu is the most mysterious and didn't even leave a nickname, so we just call him Lao Wu.

The sixth brother, Louis, loves to eat fried pork, while the seventh brother is the most particular and the least particular, so they are called the backstabbing brothers.

The eighth brother, Gu Nandu, likes to eat boiled shrimps, while the ninth brother, Dongfang Yin, likes to eat spicy and sour potatoes.

In short, these individuals all have their own hobbies or characteristics. They can get together because of some hobbies and can have fun together, and secondly, they are also involved in interests.

It is also a coincidence that the two groups of people get together this time.

It was mainly Brother Hao, the nominal boss of this group, who had his eyes on the source of the grain in Zhang Mazi's hands.

They want to rely on their network of relationships to cooperate with Zhang Mazi and make money together.

Zhang Mazi provides the grain, and they all have some connections, that is, they have markets and sales channels.

It happened that Lu Zhenyuan had nothing to do, so after listening to Zhang Mazi's report, he met with the person who came to seek cooperation. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Brother Hao, whom he had met once before.

……

After introducing myself and my group of brothers.

Brother Hao gestured to Lu Zhenyuan and the other two, and introduced them to the others, "This is Zhang Mazi, Boss Zhang. The grain we got recently was sold by Boss Zhang."

"And this is Boss Lu, the real boss behind Boss Zhang."

Since he had asked for his opinion before, Brother Hao directly called him Boss Lu.

When the others heard what Brother Hao said, they were a little surprised. They originally thought that the bearded Zhang Mazi was the big boss, but they didn't expect it to be the tall and handsome young man next to him.

Although he looked too young, he was introduced by Brother Hao, so everyone did not look down on him and bowed to him.

Lu Zhenyuan and Zhang Mazi also returned the gift.

After all, a fancy sedan is carried by people, and this is unavoidable for those who are in the underworld.

Because they had greeted each other before, everyone knew what they were getting together for, so there was no need to exchange pleasantries.

It was still Brother Hao who spoke, and in a sense he represented the other eight people.

When it comes to Lu Zhenyuan and Zhang Mazi, the nine of them are in the same group. As for how to distribute the final benefits, they can talk about it later.

"Boss Lu, how much food can you give us?"

Lu Zhenyuan did not say anything, but Zhang Mazi spoke up and slapped the table with angrily, "Brother, that depends on how much you can eat."

Brother Hao looked at a few people.

Old Eight Gu Nandu chuckled, stared at Zhang Mazi and said, "Brother Mazi, you seem very confident. Are you sure you want us to speak?"

"Just speak up!"

Seeing Lu Zhenyuan looking calm and composed, they looked at each other again.

Gu Nandu clapped his hands and raised a finger, "1000 jin! 1000 jin per person! I wonder if Brother Mazi can make the decision?"

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Lu Zhenyuan.

"Tsk, only 1000 pounds." Zhang Mazi snorted, looking like a gangster.

Lu Zhenyuan secretly twitched his lips. This guy is a bit deliberate.

"Brother Mazi, I said 1000 kilograms per person, and nine people would be 9000 kilograms!" Gunandu emphasized.

This time, without waiting for Zhang Mazi to speak, Brother Hao stood up again, motioned for everyone to slow down, and then looked at Lu Zhenyuan.

"It seems that Boss Lu still doesn't believe in our strength. It's pointless to test us like this. I will show my sincerity first, and I hope you won't be stingy later."

As he spoke, Brother Hao took a wooden box from the cabinet behind him and gently placed it on the table with a dull 'bang' sound. It looked to be quite heavy.

Brother Hao opened it, revealing 10 small yellow croakers neatly arranged inside.

Lu Zhenyuan took a glance and his interest was aroused. Well, who doesn’t like golden things?

The price of these 10 small yellow croakers is close to yuan. It seems that Brother Hao is indeed sincere.

Lu Zhenyuan nodded and patted Zhang Mazi who was about to speak again.

Zhang Mazi immediately realized that his elder brother was about to speak, and stepped back a little.

This action caused several people to look at him sideways.

"Brother Hao is indeed sincere, so let's not do those empty things. 1000 kilograms is too stingy. Let me tell you a number." Lu Zhenyuan glanced at everyone.

Stretch out a hand and open it.

"5000 jin, 5000 jin per person! As for whether this is the first batch of transactions or the last batch of transactions, it all depends on your opinion."

To say it is an idea is just a polite way of saying it. To put it bluntly, it is about whether you have the ability.

After all, who doesn't want to make money?

Everyone was secretly shocked. If each person carried 5000 kilograms, then after the transaction, these 10 gold bars would not be enough to pay.

"Brother, are you serious?" Brother Hao stared at Lu Zhenyuan.

"Pay half of the deposit first, and pay the other half when the goods arrive. My people still have to beg for food in the city, so you don't have to worry that I will run away with the deposit."

Brother Hao laughed.

"Brother Lu, you are joking. I trust your character, but I don't know how much you would like to charge. After all, we brothers have worked hard, and this has saved you some trouble. I hope you can offer a reasonable price."

He didn't say it was reasonable, because in this world, anything you say is reasonable is reasonable. After all, it is a seller's market.

And "reasonable" means to build closer relationships. After all, business cannot be done only once, which is also what he implicitly expresses.

Lu Zhenyuan chuckled.

“市场普通的米面是1毛3一斤、优质的是2毛3一斤，但眼下的情况诸位都知道，黑市上普通的米面也已经炒到了2毛3，优质的米面已经到了3毛3、3毛5一斤。”

"Brother, if you show your sincerity, I will certainly not let you work in vain."

Lu Zhenyuan tapped the table with his fingers, and Zhang Mazi immediately wanted to pour tea. Hao Ge hurriedly took it and poured a cup of tea himself.

Lu Zhenyuan thanked him, drank a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then continued: "The grain I have, you know, is all high-quality. I don't want more, I'll just go by the stable market price, 2 yuan per pound!"

Brother Hao slammed the table excitedly.

"Brother, be righteous!"

"Wait!" Lu Zhenyuan waved his hand and continued, "Listen to me first, bro. I can sell it to you at 2 yuan per pound, but I have one condition."

"Brother, you know what! If you're worried about leaks, don't worry. If we leak the news or we get into trouble, we will never betray you."

Lu Zhenyuan shook his head. "What I want to say is that I can sell the food to you, but I hope you can make a small profit. The price cannot exceed 3 yuan. If you can agree to this, I can supply all my food to you and will not sell it to anyone else."

"Clap! Clap! Clap!" Brother Hao clapped his hands.

Then everyone else applauded.

"Brother, you are not only righteous, but also kind! We agree to this condition. After all, we just want to make a small profit. If we really raise the price to the point where others can't afford it, we will be eating human blood steamed buns. We brothers will not do such a thing that damages our morality."

Lu Zhenyuan couldn't help but look up to these people. They seemed okay for now.

Being able to ship grain in bulk would naturally make money quickly and save him trouble, so he was naturally willing to do this.

But he also has a bottom line.

He will not do something that would allow him to join those truly unscrupulous traffickers in driving up grain prices. Not only will he not do it, he will also restrict his partners from doing so.

Let you make money, but don’t let you profit from others’ misfortune.

People like Brother Hao now leave a good impression on him, but if he finds out later that they took the goods from him and then sold them to other dealers, those unscrupulous dealers would sell them at high prices.

He wouldn't agree to that.

We are not sociable. It has nothing to do with me how you raise the price, but if he betrays the cooperation agreement, you can't blame him.

These people take 2 cents from him, and if they pay 3 cents, their income is 3 cents.

The first batch of goods weighed a total of 3150 kilograms, and he needed to be paid yuan, so the income was , a profit of nearly %, which was not low.

After all, a 30% gross profit margin will keep you full, while a 70% gross profit margin will starve you to death. This is the experience passed down by our ancestors.

Although the profit is 3150 yuan, if it is shared among nine people, each person only gets 350 yuan, and this is before deducting the transportation cost.

But if we only talk about purchasing, it is also 1150 yuan per person, and the profit ratio is the same. If you think it is too little, you can buy more from him.

No matter how big the market and ability these nine people have, they cannot take over an entire city. He cannot say that the food he has is enough to feed all the people in the city, but it will definitely be enough to feed the nine of them to death.

From now on, the sales in the city will be handed over to the nine people, and his subordinates only need to take care of the countryside.

You don’t make money in the countryside, and you can’t make any money, but what you gain is a peace of mind and a sense of family ties.

It was finally confirmed that the first batch of nine people, each weighing 5000 kilograms, would pay half of the deposit first.

Lu Zhenyuan also said that compared to currency, he prefers gold, so the first choice for the next transaction is gold, followed by currency. If currency is not convenient, he can also accept real estate.

This made Brother Hao and his companions very happy. They had more or less several houses under their control, which were either hidden by some means or were under other people's names. There was no use for them except to put them on hold, and they also had to worry about being investigated.

It would be good if they could take the opportunity to mortgage it and cash in. And another point is that the people to whom they sell grain are mostly wealthy people who have some ancestral inheritance.

I tried every means to keep it in the first place, but now it's a trouble in my hands. I'm afraid I'd be glad if someone could take it over.

In this age where people can starve to death.

It is definitely a good deal to exchange a house that would be troublesome to keep for food.

On the contrary, Lu Zhenyuan felt that exchanging several thousand kilograms of grain for a house was also a good deal.

Then this is a win-win situation.
