Siheyuan: There are seven fairies in my house, I am so busy
Chapter 287 Everyone Has Their Own Selfish Motives
However, the channel was connected by Xu Damao. Although Yan Fugui was angry, he had no better solution. He had to hold back his anger and talk to Xu Damao in a friendly manner.
"Da Mao, why is the price so expensive?
This is one cent more expensive than the normal price on the black market. We are buying in large quantities. Can we negotiate with them to lower the price of grain?
Logically speaking, since we are buying so much, the price should be lower than the normal price on the black market. Even the normal price on the black market will do."
Yi Zhonghai also nodded to show that he agreed with Yan Fugui's opinion. After all, this involved money.
Although most of the money was collected by everyone in the compound, he also contributed a lot of it. He paid for both his own purchase of food and the purchase of food by the Jia family.
Xu Damao was unmoved. Yan Fugui and others thought he earned too much money, but Xu Damao disagreed. He even felt he earned too little.
If it weren't for him, these people would never have been able to find such a large amount of food. With the food in hand, he had nothing to fear.
“Three gentlemen, as you all know, food is hard to find nowadays, and such a large quantity of food is even harder to find.
The cargo owners also understand that food prices are rising now, and after a period of time, food prices may be even higher.
It was only because of my face and the fact that we wanted a lot of food that they agreed to help.
We are not forced. If we don't want to buy, we don't have to. There is nothing I can do about it.
To tell you the truth, I am not lying. After a while, the price of grain will definitely be even higher. People will have no trouble selling it. Even if we don't buy it, there are plenty of people who want to buy it.
Now is the time for you to make a decision.”
Xu Damao was not really worried. As long as he had the channels, people in the compound would have to come to him whenever they wanted to buy food.
It is 1 yuan now. After a while, when food prices rise, it may become 3 yuan. In any case, his profit will not change.
The three uncles in charge also understood that Xu Damao now controlled the channels for purchasing grain. No matter how much the grain cost, Xu Damao would make some money from it. It seemed that the sooner they bought the grain, the more cost-effective it would be.
Yi Zhonghai quickly made up his mind.
"Okay, at this price, I agree!
However, the sooner we buy food, the better.”
Yan Fugui nodded helplessly and accepted it.
"Okay, buy it then!"
Liu Haizhong already knew this result and of course he would agree.
"I agree!"
Xu Damao didn't want to worry about anything else, so the right thing to do was to quickly earn the money and put it in his pocket.
"Okay, let's hurry up. He said we can do it anytime, so let's make an appointment for tomorrow night."
Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui nodded in agreement.
Yi Zhonghai winked at Yan Fugui, who nodded and began to talk about the arrangements for the three of them:
"There are only 1500 kilograms of food in total, which is definitely not enough for everyone in the compound to share. We can only reduce everyone's share.
Damao, how much food does your family need?"
Xu Damao didn't have much demand for these coarse grains. He had already purchased some high-end goods such as rice and flour through Brother Hu, so he didn't care much about these corn noodles. However, in order to cover up, he still had to get some of these corn noodles.
"Our family will just follow the normal distribution."
Yan Fugui nodded and continued:
"There are 27 families in the compound who have signed up. Each family can only get 50 kilograms of food. Let's use 50 kilograms as an example, so the total is 1350 kilograms.
After all the divisions, there will be 150 kilograms left. Damao, we won't say anything else. Everyone has selfish motives. We three uncles will divide the 150 kilograms equally. What do you think?"
As the managers, they have been busy on this matter for a long time, it is impossible for them not to take advantage of it. The three managers have already reached a consensus on the matter of the three families taking a larger share.
However, because the specific amount of grain had not been determined before, the extra share of grain they would receive had not been determined either.
No matter from which angle you look at this matter, Xu Damao cannot hide it.
Because all the money collected in the compound will be handed over to Xu Damao, and the transaction must be completed through Xu Damao, so now they no longer hide it.
Besides, they thought Xu Damao should understand, not to mention that they also knew that the benefits Xu Damao gained from this far exceeded theirs, so this little bastard should not object to their behavior of eating and taking more.
Sure enough, Xu Damao didn't care after hearing it. Just like Yan Fugui said, everyone has selfish desires, which is normal.
Xu Damao agreed with a smile and a very relaxed and natural tone.
"Three gentlemen, this is perfectly normal. I understand. I am only concerned with completing the transaction. I don't care about anything else. You guys are the ones who make the decisions about the hospital."
Yan Fugui looked delighted after hearing what Xu Damao said.
"Okay, Damao is indeed a man of the times and knows the ways of the world. This matter has been decided!
Then let's arrange the next things. We have decided to go buy food tomorrow. You, Damao, need to determine the time and place."
Xu Damao nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll handle this matter as soon as possible, and I'll let you know the specific time and place tomorrow afternoon."
Xu Damao decided on the time and location of the transaction, and Yi Zhonghai began to arrange the specific action plan for tomorrow night.
"Let's do as we agreed before and divide the people in the compound into three groups.
I led the first group, which was responsible for keeping watch on the periphery to guard against possible dangers, and for reconnaissance ahead when transporting food.
The second group is under the charge of you, Old Yan. Your main job is to complete the transaction, determine the quantity of grain and transport the grain back to the courtyard.
The third group will be led by you, Lao Liu. You will cooperate in transporting grain in the early stage and be responsible for covering the rear during the transportation of grain in the later stage.
There are 27 families in our compound, which means there are 27 people. I need three people to lead the first group. "
Liu Haizhong thought about it and stretched out three fingers.
"I will be in charge of covering the rear and I will need three people. The rest will be given to Old Yan. More people will be needed to transport the food."
Yan Fugui nodded in agreement.
"Okay, that's the arrangement."
After the agreement was reached, Xu Damao left Yi Zhonghai's house, but Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui did not leave.
Yan Fugui adjusted his glasses and suggested:
"Now let's talk about the matter of each of our three families needing an extra 50 kilograms of food.
We can’t let the people in the compound know about the extra food we got, so we have to find a way to transport it back separately.”
Liu Haizhong nodded.
“Old Yan is right.
Although it was the three of us who initiated the purchase of food outside, if people in the compound knew that our three families received extra food, some people would definitely feel that it was unfair.
There will be trouble then, and they won’t give us more food out of gratitude, so we have to transport the food back secretly without letting anyone else know.”
