Chapter 12 Buy Buy Buy
a week later.
With the sound of the horn, two large trucks, one behind the other, stopped in front of Feiyang Company's warehouse.
Chu Feng opened the container and took a look and found that it was full of food. Boxes filled the entire carriage.
Xiao Hui, who was following the car, pointed at the first truck and said in a deep voice:
"Xiao Feng, the car in front of you is full of canned meat, divided into four types: pork, beef, chicken, and fish. One can weighs one pound, and there are as many as 3,000 cans, and as little as 1,000 cans. A total of just over 10,000 boxes."
"Okay, Aunt Xiao, are you in any trouble?"
Chu Feng nodded with a smile and asked casually.
"There's something really wrong."
"oh?"
Chu Feng turned his head and looked at Xiao Hui solemnly, waiting for the next step.
"Originally, I wanted to place an urgent order again so that the quality would be better, but the regular big factories no longer accept orders...nor...to be precise, they don't accept small orders. "
Then he frowned and said: "I asked someone internally to inquire secretly, and now they are too soft on orders. The machines are running 24 hours a day, and they are too lazy to pay attention to orders under 100,000 cans."
"This batch of canned meat was pieced together by me going to major supermarkets and stores one by one."
"You don't know how difficult it is just for this little can!"
Xiao Hui sighed, "The major factories have no inventory at all. The cans are taken away by others as soon as they come off the production line, without even a chance to raise prices."
"By the way, the car at the back is full of canned fruits, with various flavors. There are only 9,210 cans in total."
Seeing Chu Feng's strange eyes, Xiao Hui smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Feng, don't blame Aunt Xiao for not being dedicated."
"I tried my best. I went to all the can shops in the surrounding cities, and that's how I managed to get so much."
"Furthermore, I found that the prices of foods that are easy to store for a long time, such as canned foods, are constantly rising. They are going up by one price every day. Take the canned food here as an example, the price has increased by 15%. It’s doubled...it’s still rising!”
"Didn't you spend 10 million?"
"Well, 10.5 million."
Xiao Hui stopped Chu Feng from taking out the money and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Feng, if one family doesn't talk to each other, don't be polite to Aunt Xiao."
"However, with these more than 3 million, Auntie's family will be completely wiped out, and you will have to rely on yourself for other supplies."
"Aunt Xiao, don't worry, your investment is definitely worth it!"
Chu Feng said seriously.
Although Aunt Xiao's move would not be a help in times of need, it was the icing on the cake, and Chu Feng had to recognize it.
Of course I am moved.
No matter what happens in the end, regardless of the relationship between the two families, Chu Feng will definitely help his family survive as long as they don't fall into a desperate situation.
Moreover, with the blessing of the system, Chu Feng believed that he would be able to take care of this large family.
However, thinking that these foods were all eaten by his own family, Chu Feng still asked worriedly.
"Aunt Xiao, is the quality of these foods guaranteed?"
"Aunt Xiao is doing things, just keep your heart in your stomach."
Xiao Hui was full of confidence and explained briefly, "These cans are from the famous brand Beidahuang, and their quality is guaranteed."
"If it wasn't for the purpose of buying this brand of cans, why would Aunt Xiao go to surrounding cities to buy them."
Then he sighed, "Hey...you know the canned food market is in chaos now. Small workshops, black workshops...have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and no one is taking care of them anymore."
"Although the price is relatively cheap and the quantity is sufficient, their meat... is all junk meat, lymph meat, and even... synthetic meat."
Shaking her head, Xiao Hui sighed again, "Hey, let's not talk anymore. You can unload the goods yourself. I'm going to help our girl. In this situation...she doesn't seem to be easy there."
With that said, he turned around and drove away.
Looking at the rear of the car going away, Chu Feng's face tightened.
"It's only been a week, why is the country so fast this time?"
Pity.
Due to the death of his parents, Yuan Chufeng fell into autism, turned his ears away from the outside world, and only focused on building machines.
As a result, Chu Feng's memory was particularly vague about what happened during this period, and there was not much useful information.
All I know is that one month after the Nine Stars Lian Zhu started, supplies began to tighten, especially in food, the national quota supply and purchase restrictions began...
More than two months later, three months before the asteroid impact, Dragon Kingdom began a nationwide shelter construction plan...
After thinking for a while, Chu Feng didn't have any clue.
"Forget it... I'll do my own thing. At most, I'll just spend the same money and buy fewer resources... But I have to be quick!"
With the decision made, Chu Feng immediately ordered the porters to get started.
······
More than half a month later.
After sending away the unloaded truck, Chu Feng closed the warehouse door.
Holding the list of supplies, Chu Feng was in the warehouse, checking it as he walked.
"Clothing (cold suit, windproof mask, sunglasses... some underwear, socks), cost 6 million."
"300 tons of natural sea salt (iodized) cost 5 million."
"Seeds (lettuce, cabbage, carrots, strawberries, tomatoes... some ginseng, saffron) cost 10 million."
"Food (10,580 cans of meat, 9,210 cans of fruit, various candies, potato chips and other snacks), cost 10 million + 500,000."
"10 tons of rice, 6 tons of flour, a total cost of 1 million."
"14 tons of iron ingots, 1 ton of steel bars, a total cost of 1.5 million."
"2 tons of copper ingots, 500,000."
"5 tons of aluminum ingots, 300,000."
"2 tons of plastic pellets, 200,000."
"15 tons of gasoline, 6 million."
"Toiletries (toothpaste, tooth ... "
"Seasonings (cooking oil, sauce, vinegar, soybean paste... Lao Gan Ma), total cost 2 million."
"Other sundries (radio, radio, intercom, thresher, harvester... fill light, kitchen appliances), total cost 8 million."
"Total: 52.2 million."
It took Chu Feng a full hour to count the supplies.
"Prices are rising too fast."
Chu Feng, who was checking and filling in the gaps one by one, couldn't help but sigh when he saw the amount next to him.
Especially when he saw the edible salt, Chu Feng was stunned.
Originally, the wholesale price of salt in Longguo was only 8,000 dragon coins per ton.
But when Chu Feng bought in large quantities, the price per ton soared to 17,000 yuan, more than doubled!
This is a daily necessities, with the same status as rice, water and electricity.
How can the price be raised easily? Or it keeps going up...
Even if you want to pay more, you can't - so the original plan of thousands of tons was completely ruined. Chu Feng tried his best and only bought 300 tons.
However, it was enough for him to eat.
Chu Feng could only comfort himself in this way - the salt trade in the doomsday was ruined!
Similarly, just like salt, large-scale transactions of daily necessities such as rice and flour have been secretly stopped immediately. Even if Chu Feng is willing to pay more, he can't buy the goods.
As for infrastructure materials, iron, copper, aluminum, etc., after scanning their prices, his eyes stayed on the quantity and he was speechless for a long time...
Too little!
In this regard, Chu Feng had no desire to complain at all.
