Meat is divided among the production team

Chen Xiaobai went to organize and sell the mutton.

He was actually intercepted in the middle of the road by someone from the "Anti-private Brigade"?

Everyone in the office asked Chen Xiaobai about the specific situation one after another.

Luo Xuan knocked on the table, "You all should go out."

Now that Luo Xuan has spoken, Dou Jiande and Wang Chunhua dare not disobey; Bai Fugui's mother-in-law is even more respectful to Luo Xuan.

Wait until the three of them left the office.

Chen Xiaobai closed the door carefully, then turned around and approached Luo Xuan.

He lowered his voice and said, "In the past few days, the anti-private teams have been dispatched very frequently, and the inspections have become more and more strict."

Luo Xuan asked him: "Is there any problem with the batch of grain we put in the county?"

"That's no problem."

Chen Xiaobai's face was full of worry: "Seeing that the New Year is approaching, it is the time when the members and the residents in the city urgently need to buy New Year supplies.

Often at this point, the anti-smuggling teams will become more and more strict in their investigations."

Luo Xuan pondered for a while, "If that doesn't work, I'll suspend your help in selling the food and turning it into cash.

And the mutton you brought us has to be put in the driver's cab of the truck.

In this case, the anti-smuggling team will not be able to detect the mutton you supplied to us."

Chen Xiaobai nodded,

Then he shook his head: "Actually, there's no need to worry so much. They also need to pay benefits during the Chinese New Year, so the checks are getting tighter and tighter.

Generally speaking, they won't kill me.

Who in the dozens of miles nearby doesn't know that I sell beef and mutton from Inner Mongolia to Saibei every day?"

Chen Xiaobai said quietly, "If those officials really wanted to ban the beef and mutton from the north from flowing to the north of the Great Wall, I would have been caught by them long ago. Isn't this the best way to do it once and for all?"

Luo Xuan sighed slightly, "Everyone understands the principle of releasing water appropriately and fishing without exhausting the lake.

What I'm worried about now is not that they scratch a little bit of oil on you from time to time."

Chen Xiaobai took out a pack of "Lion Brand" cigarettes, took one out, held it up with both hands, and feinted in front of Luo Xuan.

Then he put it to his own mouth, took out a match and lit the cigarette.

Because Chen Xiaobai knew that Luo Xuan did not smoke. It was just a false courtesy to show his respect for Luo Xuan.

Chen Xiaobai swallowed a puff of smoke and then said: "I want to take advantage of the new year, the second and third day of the Lunar New Year.

At that time, everyone was still busy doing yangko, watching float parades, or performing nine tunes. Taking advantage of the fact that the anti-private team is still on holiday, I want to do something big!"

Luo Xuan frowned: "You want to pull the whole truckload of grain to the north?"

"right!"

Chen Xiaobai chuckled, "Over in Dongsheng, several new 'Bubai coal mines' have been opened. They are in urgent need of a large amount of food."

Luo Xuan always felt uneasy, "What price did they give?"

Chen Xiaobai stretched out four fingers: "Fine grains are 4 cents and 8 cents, and coarse grains are 2 and 7 cents per pound. And they promised me."

Every time I bring a cart of grain to the coal mine, I will be given an additional 200 yuan as freight subsidy."

Hearing the price, Luo Xuan couldn't help but ponder.

Something is wrong!

The price of food now is no different from that of 10 years ago. Under the planned economy, prices did not change much for many years.

If you go to the grain station to buy grain through regular channels, the price difference you need to make up for fine grain is 1 cent, 7 cents and 2 cents.

According to the approximate equivalent value of money and tickets, the market price of each kilogram of fine grains should be between 3.3 cents and 3.5 cents.

Go north in Tuocheng, all the way to the EEDS prairie.

Along the hundreds of kilometers of road, there are hundreds of large and small state-owned coal mines and collective coal mines.

There are also those "not white" private coal mines.

Because there are many coal mines here, their burial depth is not particularly deep.

Peeling away the yellow sand on the surface, there are high-quality coal layers underneath.

Therefore, the scale of these coal mines is generally quite large. There are hundreds, thousands, or thousands of strong men working in the coal mines.

Therefore, their demand for food is also extremely huge.

Newly opened coal mine?

And it’s still kind of “not white”.

The price of grain he gave was already higher than what Chen Xiaobai had been selling to other coal mines.

It's a lot higher than 8 cents per pound.

High profits must correspond to high risks, this is ironclad!

"I will definitely not agree to this matter."

Luo Xuan finally decided not to do that kind of business, "I don't need money urgently.

So I would rather let you help me slowly and slowly monetize the food I put in the county than take that risk."

"But."

Chen Xiaobai really couldn't bear to give up, with the piece of fat already on his lips, "At the frog market in Zhimi County, I will help you take out the food bit by bit.

That speed is really too slow! If you calculate it this way, I can sell at most 2,000 kilograms of grain in a month."

Chen Xiaobai's face lit up: "But if we want to haul grain to that coal mine called 'Fujin', we only need one truck! I can get rid of tens of thousands of kilograms of grain."

"Why do people give you such a high purchase price for grain?"

Luo Xuan snorted coldly, "The Yellow River has nine dangers, but only one is rich. In the Hetao area in the north, there is plenty of flour and rice."

"Don't even think about it: How much initial investment should be made in a privately owned coal mine?"

Luo Xuan sighed, "I'm worried that if you pull the food over, you won't get the money.

Moreover, the other party wants to make things right and avoid future troubles. It is very likely that even you will not be able to come back."

He reached out and patted Chen Xiaobai on the shoulder.

Luo Xuan tried to persuade him, "You are a foreigner and have no influence here.

I would pull a cart full of grain alone and go to the deserted wilderness hundreds of kilometers away from human habitation. I was worried that those coal mines were short of workers!

At that time, you and your food will have to fall on that coal mine. With your small body, how much coal can you dig?"

"Gudong——"

Chen Xiaobai swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Then he nodded in agreement without thinking, "What you said makes sense. Forget it, I'll just be honest and continue my trip to the north before the end of the year.

Let’s get 20 more sheep for your hotel and production team.”

Luo Xuan stared into Chen Xiaobai's eyes and warned him softly, "I am not allowed to touch the grain stored in the cave dwellings I rent in Zhimi County for the time being! Do you hear that?"

"Stay still."

Chen Xiaobai grinned.

This guy does have such good teeth, which are white and shiny.

This is very different from the way most people in Saibei have yellow teeth due to poor water quality.

Chen Xiaobai smiled and said, "Brother Luo Xuan, don't worry! In the old days, my family was a businessman for generations.

I still know in my mind what things I can touch and what risks I can’t take.”

Seeing Chen Xiaobai's expression, Luo Xuan sighed slightly in his heart: This guy is probably not willing to give up that piece of fat.

Fortunately, in Zhimi County,

The cave dwelling with several holes in the single-family house that he secretly rented from someone else only contains about 2,000 kilograms of grain in total.

The Chen Xiaobai in front of him, even if he wants to make huge profits from selling grain.

But as long as he doesn't put too much food into the cave, Chen Xiaobai will be helpless.

There is a lot of food in your own space.

Some of it has been taken out recently to fill the gap in the production team's warehouse.

The reason why I did this,

This is to avoid the commune members in Shilipu Village. On the one hand, they have to do the hard work of building water canals. On the other hand, there is not enough food at home, causing the commune members to go without food.

Accountant Li and Wang Chunhua handle the food import and export accounts in this hotel.

The food in the hotel comes from the village deep in the mountains of Xiaolaojun.

Every train package sent from Bashu arrives at Suimi County.

Accountant Li will lead several members and go to the Suimi County Railway Station to pick up the train in person.
