Chapter 907 Bartering for Things
"Hello, Uncle Niu!"
In the office of the organizing committee of the 1961 Spring Festival Gala of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, Chen Feng brought Chen Li and Li Jie to find Chen Li's beloved Uncle Niu Gengshen.
In contrast, Li Jie was less enthusiastic.
"Hello, Uncle Niu!"
Li Jie obviously doesn't understand Director Niu's magical powers!
Director Niu, who was extremely busy, looked up at Chen Feng, then lowered his head again. While checking the prepared supplies, he said, "Chen Feng, if you want to sell wild boar meat or something like that, the factory has plenty of it now, and the workers are on holiday. I suggest I recommend a few friends to you. They're all small factories that didn't get the pork from the meat processing plant, but they're short of funds. You need to discuss barter with them."
Chen Feng did not hesitate. With a large number of domestic pigs on the market, key enterprises such as steel mills and canneries would definitely get enough pork from the meat processing plant.
The best option is to sell it to other small factories in exchange for other supplies.
As for the children, they already have enough change, so we can't give them too much, otherwise they will swell up and explode the public toilet!
Don’t laugh at the naughty kids in the future who blow up the sewers. Nowadays, it’s naughty kids who blow up public toilets that are called assholes!
"to make!"
Niu Gengshen immediately gave him a piece of paper and continued to count the supplies.
The Spring Festival Gala is more than just a party.
The organizers had to prepare the stage, electricity, venue, tea, snacks, and the actors' certificates, trophies, and gifts. In addition, the Dongda cafeteria, which was closest to the Great Hall, had to provide free midnight snacks.
In a word, either don’t do it, or do it well!
May everyone have a happy and satisfying year!
Chen Feng didn't bother him. He took the piece of paper and found an unused phone and started dialing it.
"Cauldron, cauldron, here I come, I want to play!"
Chen Li likes to use the landline phone.
Because phone bills are expensive, children generally don’t have the opportunity to use them, so the game that many children look forward to most is being able to make a phone call themselves.
Well, this is just like the first time the post-90s generation went to an Internet cafe to play games!
The novelty of technology!
"Can you?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.
"Yes, we all will!"
Li Jie yelled, "I'm at my mom's place, often helping everyone make calls!"
"Yeah, I helped too!"
Chen Feng smiled and handed the phone to Chen Li.
Landline telephones are currently being popularized in the country, with the goal of having a battery-powered landline telephone in every production brigade (village).
This has many benefits.
For example, if spies or criminals were caught, or if a major accident occurred in the production brigade, the commune and the city could be notified immediately.
And most importantly!
Once war breaks out, we will mobilize supplies and manpower as quickly as possible!
It is by relying on this simple and powerful organizational ability that the rabbits defeated the Eagle Sauce with airplanes, trucks and tanks!
"Hello, I'm Chen Li. Would you like to buy pork?"
Li Jie dialed the number. Chen Li was holding the headset and asked happily when she heard the voice on the other end.
Seeing this, Chen Feng smiled and waited to see what she would say.
I guess the person on the other end also found it funny, so he recognized it was a little girl, but instead of hanging up, he asked out of curiosity.
"Little boy, how much meat do you have?"
“Uh, so many!”
Chen Li thought this was a bit vague and added: "We killed five big wild boars, wild boars as big as cars."
The other side was a little startled.
"Little boy, if your adult is here, let him answer the phone."
Chen Li was very disappointed and gave the phone to Chen Feng, but the little girl was very curious, so she leaned close to her brother's profile and eavesdropped.
"Hello, is this Director Wang from the Logistics Department of the Sijiucheng Watch Factory?"
"I am, may I ask your name, comrade?"
Chen Feng explained with a smile, "My name is Chen Feng. Director Niu Gengshen recommended me to you. I have about 150 kilograms of wild boar meat left. Would your watch factory like it?"
Director Wang laughed on the other end of the phone and said, "This number is still a bit too much."
The Sijiucheng Watch Factory was only established in 1958. At the beginning, there were only 21 people. Even now, with the expansion method of master and apprentice, there are less than people!
One hundred and fifty kilograms of wild boar meat was just the right amount for them.
Chen Feng reported 150 kilograms only after seeing the number of employees written by Niu Gengshen.
But the little fool Chen Li has already reported five.
Others obviously want to lower the price!
"How could that be? The wild boar meat was hunted today. If each person shares it, it's only a little over a pound. If we distribute it, everyone can eat it all in one meal when they get home."
"Comrade Chen Feng, how about this? If the meat is good, I'll take it all. How about giving you five watches? Three wristwatches and two pocket watches?"
Lao Wang is ruthless enough. He doesn't want to spend a penny and only wants to achieve a sales result.
Bartering is normal!
Every factory has something missing and something in excess.
Privately, buyers prefer to exchange materials directly with factories.
At the meat processing plant, it is said that many people rely on this method to have all the necessary household items!
But the price is too low!
Five watches, at most it would cost one hundred and fifty dollars!
A pound of wild boar meat costs one dollar, which is far lower than the black market price.
"Add a hanging bell!"
Director Wang hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed.
Even if he took out six clocks, he could still keep one.
After finishing one, Chen Li and Li Jie continued their efforts, and the two little ones satisfied their desire to make phone calls.
The people recommended by Niu Gengshen are all good. They all belong to small units with few factories, insufficient funds in their slush funds, and insufficient supplies, so they cannot get enough supplies and need separate exchanges.
The watch factory gave three watches, two pocket watches, and a pendant clock.
The 628 Rubber Factory gave eight barrels of construction rubber and twelve barrels of latex paint. The latter was invented in the 40s, successfully developed domestically in 58, and began to be localized.
The brick factory placed the largest order and swallowed up all the remaining meat.
There are so many of them!
In exchange, they delivered three trucks of red bricks, five bags of cement and two bags of lime directly to the Chen family's yard, and then took the meat back.
Before leaving, the bearded director patted Chen Feng's shoulder hard.
"Comrade Xiao Chen, if you need to change again next time, just come to me. I'll give you plenty of bricks and cement!"
Chen Feng smiled bitterly!
There is a shortage of many supplies in the city, but there is no shortage of bricks.
It’s not that everyone has enough housing, three generations are crowded together!
But there are only so many low-rise buildings planned to be built within a limited time. The brick factory produces red bricks, and one kiln produces several trucks, so the construction team cannot use them all!
Zhou Qing looked stupidly at the bricks piled up in the corner of the yard.
"Xiao Feng, do you want to renovate the house?"
Chen Feng didn't have this idea at first, but when he heard it, he thought it was possible!
I won’t make any big changes, just add a loft to my previous house!
It can be used as a study or warehouse, and it can also block the summer heat and lower the temperature below.
