Volume 4: The World of Great Conflict Chapter 0431 Changbai Mountain Saint
The school beauty didn't get any news, but she did find out about a few living people.
"Nan Yi, look who's here."
Behind the school beauty, Ge Cuizhu entered the courtyard with a man and two women.
"Old Qian, Yu Hui, and this little beauty, uncle still remembers you, Yunmei, you have grown up." Seeing Ge Cuizhu, Nan Yi noticed the person behind her and quickly recognized her. He stepped forward and shook hands with Qian Tangsheng, "Old Qian, are you willing to leave Changbai Mountain?"
"Chairman Ge asked us to come for a meeting, so I went back to Hangzhou. I'm sorry, I didn't know you were getting married, so I came late." Qian Tangsheng said apologetically.
"It's okay. This is my fault. We haven't seen each other since we parted at Changbai Mountain. Are you doing well?"
"Everything is fine. I can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars every year. How can I live a bad life?"
As he spoke, Qian Tangsheng's face showed joy. Ever since he started beekeeping with Nan Yi, his income has increased year by year. Last year, he received a share of over 600,000 yuan, and this year, depending on the situation, he could get even more.
Nan Yi patted Qian Tangsheng's hand, then patted his arm, and asked, "Are you relieved?"
"I'm relieved, completely relieved. The shopkeeper passed away last year."
"That's good. You've made it through. Life will get better and better. Your rank has also been upgraded, right? Are you an uncle or a father now?"
"dad."
Two more sunflowers appeared on Qian Tangsheng's face. Being a father made him happier than making money.
Back then, Qian Tangsheng was in an arranged marriage, and his own daughter could only call him uncle and call others father. His life was so miserable. Now that the shopkeeper Cui Zhenglong is dead, the awkwardness of the arranged marriage is over, and Qian Tangsheng is living a happy life.
"Come in and sit down. Come in and sit down."
Nan Yi welcomed the few people into the hall, introduced Liu Zhen to them, and poured tea for everyone.
"Yu Hui, have you found a partner?"
"No, I'm busy with work. I deal with deer every day. How can I have the time to find a partner?" Yu Hui was still very graceful and not shy at all.
"That's Chairman Ge's fault. He should give you more holidays so that you have time to resolve your life's major issues." Nan Yi teased.
The Reclamation Group built a deer farm in Changbai Mountain, taking the path of mutual cooperation between village collective enterprises. Wenchangwei cooperated with Yujiatun where Yu Hui was located. Wenchangwei provided the money and was responsible for bringing the products into the high-end market to earn high profits, while Yujiatun was responsible for daily breeding and injected Yu Hui, a high-end talent.
The shareholding ratio of Wenchangwei and Yujiatun is 6 to 4. It can be said that among the 40% shares of Yujiatun, nearly 25% are due to Yu Hui, which is why Wenchangwei made concessions. Otherwise, there are many alternative ways to ensure that Wenchangwei obtains more benefits.
"Hehe, I'm not in a hurry. I'm still young."
Yu Hui has the straightforwardness of a Northeastern person, but her speech is not too Northeastern, and there is no accent. Perhaps it is because she lives in Changbai Mountain and interacts with deer more often, which makes her less impatient, let alone angry.
"Yes, there's no need to rush. A girl as good as you will naturally have someone crying and begging to marry you. You just wait and choose."
After hearing Nan Yi's words, Yu Hui showed a hint of shyness on her face.
Nan Yi did not continue with the subject's question, but changed the topic to work, "How many deer are there in the deer farm now?"
"There are 329 deer, 7 of which are pregnant, 3 of which are carrying twins. They will give birth to 10 fawns. I will go into the mountains to call for deer in the fall. By the end of the year, the number should reach 400."
“Are you still selling your velvet antlers to the purchasing station?”
"Yes, we harvest twice a year. Last year, we sold 527 jin and 3 liang of deer. Many of them are still young, so we can only harvest a little more than 1 jin a year. There are not many deer that can harvest 4 jin. We haven't started harvesting this year yet. We plan to wait until the beginning of next month to harvest."
Nan Yi nodded and said, "Is there any way to keep the antlers longer?"
"There is no good way. No matter how well it is stored, it can only maintain its medicinal properties for five years at most. If it is stored for more than five years, it will lose its value. It will not be as valuable as when it was fresh."
Nan Yi thought for a while and said to Ge Cuizhu, "Aunt, please discuss with the village chief of Yujiatun. Starting this year, we will not sell to the purchasing station. We will buy it ourselves and give the same price as the purchasing station."
"If you collect them yourselves, where will you put them? It's too humid here in the south, and they can't be stored there." Yu Hui asked.
"Haha, technology is very advanced now. As long as we know under what conditions the antlers can be stored for the longest time, we can use technology to simulate that environment."
"But what's the point of keeping it? Didn't I tell you that if it's kept for a long time, it won't be as valuable as when it was fresh, and its value will drop."
"Let it fall. Prices are rising every year. If it's kept for three to five years, the price of the antlers might go up. Even if they're not as valuable as fresh ones, there's still a chance to make more money."
"What if the price drops?" Yu Hui said worriedly.
"Even if I lose the bet, I'll just lose money." Nan Yi said indifferently.
In fact, Nan Yi did not tell the truth. Raising deer and selling antlers have never been his pursuit. What he really focused on was terminal sales and sales of Chinese patent medicines.
Wenchang deer antler, no middlemen make a profit from the price difference.
The farmers sell it for about 100 yuan per kilogram, but consumers only pay nearly one yuan per gram, a price difference of about five times.
This is still a direct purchase by the state-owned purchasing station. Once private individuals enter the market, the price difference will become larger and larger.
The huge profits are simply insane, and the middlemen are so damn hateful.
Continuously raising prices layer by layer and ultimately passing the cost on to consumers is so unethical. How can one do this?
Nan Yi wants to cut off the middlemen, let the Kenzhi Group be the direct supplier, build a production factory with high welfare, let the master's students from 211 and 985 rush to work on the assembly line, control the profit margin within ten times, and resolutely not exceed the profit margin of cigarettes, leaving more benefits to the lovely consumers.
"Since there is a risk of losing money, why not sell it that year?" Yu Hui continued to ask.
"This is a commercial operation method, and I can't explain it clearly for the time being. So, Yu Hui, you can't stay in the deer farm as a deer breeder forever. I will make a list of books for you later, and you can go to Xinhua Bookstore and buy the books and read them carefully.
When you have finished reading, write to me and I will send you a few more books. If you finish reading all these books, you can become the manager of the deer farm."
"Can I?"
"Of course you can . When it comes to raising deer, there are few people better than you."
Yu Hui has an affinity with animals and can easily get close to them. She is a talent that Nan Yi is optimistic about. In the future, she will not only be the manager of a deer farm, but also the manager of a musk deer farm, a fox farm, a roe deer farm... and other farms.
Economic animals with relatively high economic value and not generally in demand will be explored by reclamation groups. If they can achieve high profit margins, the reclamation groups will delve into them and then try to monopolize and control the market.
Simply put, in addition to raising pigs, chickens, ducks and geese with low profit margins, the reclamation group also raises other economic animals with high profit margins, and manipulates the market to maximize profit margins.
