Chapter 293 The Harvest and the Future

“Awen, what is the dollar equivalent of this in our Daxia currency?

Our brooms actually sold for 3 yuan? This stepmother can't grab money so fast." After Sun Lianying left, Li Deyou grabbed Li Wen and asked in a low voice.

"This U.S. dollar is a good thing, and the price is also very high. One U.S. dollar is equivalent to more than 2 yuan and 40 cents in our Daxia currency." Li Wen explained with a smile.

"My dear mother! Does that mean a broom is sold for more than seven yuan? This foreigner is a fool." Li Deyou's mouth opened wide in excitement at this time.

However, Li Deyou did not dare to be careless and pinched his thigh hard to prevent himself from laughing and being seen by the onlookers of foreign businessmen.

"Okay, dad, let's continue working with everyone! Don't talk nonsense about these things. If word spreads, it will be a one-shot deal. There are too many broom makers across the country." Li Wen warned.

"Okay, okay! Baby, hurry up and sell more. We have to make it even if we don't sleep." Li Deyou felt a chill in his back and walked back quickly.

With the broadcast of the Canton Fair transaction broadcast, Qin Province's stall gradually became prosperous. Even Boss Liu, who originally traded foreign exchange with Li Wen, also placed an order for brooms with Li Wen.

In the past five days, Li Wen would accept all orders, no matter how big or small. Because he knew that this kind of huge profits would not last long, and if he failed to get one right, he would definitely be ruined next time.

The main reason is that the technical content of these handicrafts is too low, and people in Daxia can basically make them. When the time comes, the provinces will not use their brains to do anything for the sake of foreign exchange.

In five days, Li Wen received a total of more than 2 million U.S. dollars in orders, which was a huge sum of money. You must know that the total export volume of the Canton Fair in the summer of 1965 was only 340 million U.S. dollars.

Among them, the seat cushions have the highest turnover. Most foreign businessmen come from Nanyang, because the local climate is humid, and bamboo seat cushions are very popular.

However, Li Wen and his family also received a lot of orders for village brooms and wheat straw handicrafts, totaling more than 700,000 US dollars.

When Li Wen and his party returned to Qin Province Station, Secretary Wei of Qin Province came out to greet them in person, with gongs, drums, and firecrackers blasting.

"Comrade Sun, Comrade Xiao Li, thank you for your contributions to Qin Province. The country and people will remember you." Secretary Wei shook hands with the trading group enthusiastically.

"Leaders, it is the people's comrades who have made contributions, and we are just one of them." Li Wen excitedly shook hands with the secretary and replied humbly.

"You're a good young man. He came from the people to the people. He is really a good son of the people. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to come to me." Secretary Wei smiled and patted Li Wen on the shoulder.

After the welcome ceremony, everyone returned to the commercial hall, and the next step was to sit in rows and share fruits.

"This autumn Canton Fair, our Qin Province has transacted a total of more than 20 million in foreign exchange, which can be said to be a bumper harvest.

However, most of these are large state-owned units, and our Department of Commerce cannot get involved.

Fortunately, we have Xiao Sun this time, so our Department of Commerce has a flexible amount of foreign exchange to use. This time, the handicraft project led by Xiao Sun can be said to have achieved first-class success.

With only a cost of tens of thousands of yuan, millions of profits have been leveraged. Let us applaud Xiaosun." After the director of the Department of Commerce finished speaking, a round of applause broke out in the conference room.

In the end, the Department of Commerce not only converted the foreign exchange into Daxia currency, but also withheld 30%. This is normal, after all, funds and transportation are all spent to save effort.

The remaining 70% of the funds will be retained at different levels and finally distributed by the county.

[The desire to survive is overwhelming: Just take a look, these are all made up by my little brother, everything is fictitious, don’t take it personally.]

"Uncle Sun, the funds given to our village are too little! It's less than 100,000 yuan. You know, the goods we brought this time have already reached 30% of the order.

Calculated in this way, after this order is completed, our team will only have a total profit of 300,000 yuan. We also have costs! After all, the people's work has been in vain." Li Wen complained.

"You guys don't want to be good at what you get. The cotton thread and sorghum stalks in your village are enough for these goods? It's not like the people of the whole county carry them shoulder to shoulder to supply you.

I have also learned about your brigade. There are only more than 300 households in total. How much does this 300,000 yuan cost? ωωw..net

If all were paid out, each household would be able to get a thousand yuan, and there are few villages in the country that are so generous." Sun Lianying said with a smile and curse.

"Forehead!"

Li Wen nodded helplessly. There was no way that these days everything was about a group. Although Sanxing Village was also a group and was not afraid of standing out, it could not be too independent after all.

However, Li Wen still wanted to strive for some benefits for the village, and then made a request.

"Uncle, let's not talk about the money distribution in advance. It's okay to allocate some fertilizer and a few tractors to our brigade at the end of the year!" Li Wen smiled and put forward the conditions.

"Go talk to Secretary Wu of your county about this. What's the use of telling me. I said you are still addicted. Be careful not to give the remaining orders to your team." Sun Lianying narrowed his eyes and threatened.

"well!"

"The new daughter-in-law has been married and the matchmaker has thrown her over the wall. People's hearts are not as good as they used to be!" Li Wen sighed deeply.

"You kid, go back if you have nothing to do." Sun Lianying stood up with a smile and chased people away.

"Uncle, I won't leave until you approve the fertilizer tractor." Li Wen started to act rogue.

"Fertilizers are OK, but tractors are not. Now they are all supporting the farm." Sun Lianying frowned and said.

"Uncle, I'm not aiming for nothing. Do you think this business can be profitable for a long time? If it's not done well, it's just a one-shot deal.

Boy, I don’t have twos and threes, so how can I dare to make demands?" Li Wen saw that Sun Lianying was really in a dilemma and said with a smile.

"Why do you want to buy and sell in one fell swoop? Why don't you tell me what's going on?" Sun Lianying was shocked when he heard this.

"Uncle Sun, do you think our craftsmanship can make money for a long time? That's impossible.

You don’t even think about it, which province in Daxia doesn’t have people who can do these handicrafts? They can do such low-level things in any province.

This time we launched a satellite, a broom sold for US$3, and a set of bamboo cushions sold for US$25.

Think about it, the profits here are not greedy." Li Wen explained.

"ah!"

"What should we do? There is much more bamboo in the south than in our Qin Province, and the transportation is close. We will definitely not be able to sell to them." Sun Lianying said with a nervous look on his face.

"What should we do, cold salad? Who told you not to approve the tractor for me? If uncle, you help me approve two tractors, I will tell you." Li Wen said with a smile.

"You kid, hurry up and say, if there is a way, I will personally go to the director of the department to ask for a note for you. With millions of foreign exchange a year, you don't dare to run away." Sun Lianying promised with a thumping sound on his chest.

"It's a deal?"

"It's a deal."

"There is no way to block this financial path. As the saying goes, cutting off a person's financial path is equivalent to killing his parents. Although this description is a bit inappropriate, it also makes sense." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Yes! Although we are all brother provinces, we still have to compete, and it will definitely not be blocked." Sun Lianying said helplessly.

"Well! Since it can't be blocked, it can only be cleared. But there must be a way to clear it.

Otherwise, when the time comes, everyone will rush in and the price will plummet, which will actually let outsiders get an advantage.

Uncle Sun, several million is not a small amount. If done well, this is a long-term business.
