Chapter 451 Price War (1/2)
The acquisition of Rongcheng United Distribution Company was the last test her father gave her before leaving for the small fishing village.
If she can win, then she can continue to stay in Rongcheng Management Company.
If it cannot be taken over, the property in Rongcheng will be handed over to other elders in the family to take care of it.
So she is under great pressure now. The elders in the family are secretly siding with Fatty An, just to get her away.
Naturally, Chen Yuanyou knew the development potential of that small fishing village. After all, it was so close to Hong Kong Island and its geographical location was there. If it didn't develop well, there would be trouble.
But she has been like duckweed since she was a child. When she was a child, she was swinging around on the boat. When she grew up, she was chased around by others.
In junior high school, he was sent to live with relatives in Shanghai to attend the best school. Then, he was sent abroad to further his studies.
She finally established a foothold in Rongcheng and started her own business. Although the high-end traditional Japanese restaurant was turned into a fried chicken restaurant.
But there was an unexpected gain, and the business became even better, making even more money than a restaurant.
Although her father wanted to ask her to help him, she was really tired and didn't want to run away anymore. She just wanted to stay in Rongcheng.
Li Duoyu almost guessed what happened. Xiao Lin, who was next to Manager An, had complained to him before.
Unexpectedly, Manager An seemed kind and kind. Unexpectedly, he was so stubborn. After all this time, Manager An was still objecting to the company being acquired at a low price.
It's a pity that when a woman is angry, she won't reason with you, she will just break up with you.
Li Duoyu thought for a while and said to Chen Yuanyu:
"No problem. We have signed an agreement. Xinyuan Aquatic Products Company has priority. As long as you ask, I will naturally leave the blue crabs and oysters to you."
Chen Yuanyou smiled and said: "With your words, I feel relieved. Then thank you, Director Li. If you come to Rongcheng when you have time, you must come to me for tea."
Just when Chen Yuanyu was about to leave Dandan Island, he suddenly asked: "Director Li, I want to ask you something. You are so optimistic about small fishing villages, why don't you go to small fishing villages for development."
"This one"
Li Duoyu frowned on the spot and thought for a while: "Maybe I'm lazy and think it would be more comfortable if I stayed on the island."
Chen Yuanyou was a little surprised. These words were not something a young man in his twenties could say: "But if you go there, you will have more opportunities and you can make more money."
Li Duoyu frowned and said: "Money is definitely a good thing. If you don't have the ability to control it, it will make you very tired. Just like me now, I have done too much farming and am as tired as a dog every day. In the end, my mother is still the one who loves to eat the most. Boiled pickles and pork ribs soup, why bother.”
After hearing this, Chen Yuanyou couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "Me too, my favorite food is the bad fish made by my mother."
"Let's go, Director Li."
Chen Yuanyu came and left quickly. In less than two hours, he bought all the blue crabs and oysters from Li Duoyu.
Li Duoyu made a simple calculation. If he sold all the blue crabs and oysters, he could make a lot of money this month.
After purchasing the cloves for three weeks, Li Duoyu made almost 50,000 yuan just from the price difference.
If there are more than 30,000 blue crabs, based on the purchase price of one yuan per pound, they can be sold for about 25,000 yuan.
And those eighty acres of oysters can be sold for about twenty-five thousand, of which ten acres are compensation from my father to his eldest brother Jinchuan.
Even if five thousand is deducted.
Li Duoyu also made nearly 100,000 yuan in the second half of the year. Now, the balance in his passbook feels like almost one-third of what Brother Shui had back then.
In fact, Li Duoyu did not tell Chen Yuanyu that he knew nothing about finance and his business management was very poor.
With his half a bucket of water, even if he went to a small fishing village to work hard at this time, he might not be able to defeat that group of people.
After all, who among those gathered there these days is an ordinary person?
The reason why he wants to stay on Dandan Island for development is his family. However, the most important thing is that Li Duoyu is self-aware and farming is what he is best at.
For him, steady progress is the best progress.
After Li Duoyu returned to the crab pond, he smiled and said to Chen Wenchao and the Zhao brothers:
"Hurry up, the business is done. In addition to blue crabs, oysters must also be knocked down and sold."
Zhao Erniu was stunned: "Brother Yu, you really went to discuss business just now."
Li Duoyu frowned and said, "Mr. Chen and I are not talking about business, but are we talking about a partner? What are you thinking? I am a returnee from overseas, and my family is so rich."
Zhao Erniu smiled awkwardly: "I thought too much. I thought you were so powerful that you could even defeat that kind of person."
Li Duoyu glanced at him with disgust. As expected, singles like to think with their lower bodies, and their minds are filled with women.
As baskets of blue crabs are placed on Dandan Island Pier, villagers who were not optimistic about Li Duoyu blue crab farming a few months ago have now changed their minds.
An old fisherman said with envy:
"Director Li, with so many blue crabs, you will make a lot of money again this month."
"There is a lot of fish. Which month doesn't make a lot of money? I don't know who said it before. If Director Li raises blue crabs, he will definitely lose his pants."
The old fisherman was a little embarrassed: "I was short-sighted before."
But this time, no one clamored to raise blue crabs with Li Duoyu. The main reason was that the scene of fishing out dead crabs was so shocking that it took two big pits to bury all the blue crabs. .
The villagers were envious and jealous when they saw Li Duoyu loading the blue crabs on the boat and taking them to the city.
But some people were worried.
"If so many blue crabs are put directly into the market, the price of blue crabs will definitely collapse. Those who catch blue crabs this month will probably cry to death."
After hearing this, the Zhao brothers really wanted to cry but had no tears, because they were the first to be affected.
However, the villagers' prediction was not wrong, because after Chen Yuansu got the blue crabs and oysters from Li Duoyu, he did not plan to make money, but sold them at a loss.
Blue crabs were purchased one dollar at a time.
Sold directly for one dollar.
The large oysters purchased from Li Duoyu were all sold at cost price, and even the freight and labor costs were paid in.
Not only the seafood from Li Duoyu, but also the hairtail and dried squid were all sold at a reduced price.
There are even rumors that Xinyuan Aquatic Products Company will keep suppressing prices before the Chinese New Year to bring down the price of seafood this year.
Faced with such an unethical fighting style, Rongcheng citizens applauded directly, and Chen Yuansu's Japanese restaurant and the restaurant were full of business.
But the fishmongers were about to cry.
But they had no way to do anything, because they also knew that this time it was a fight between gods and fish in the pond suffered.
Now they just hope that Xinyuan Aquatic Products Company can take over Rongcheng United Company as soon as possible.
And this time, the one who was hurt the most was Manager An Yuliang, because Chen Yuansu was targeting him. Not only blue crabs and oysters, the products that were reduced in price involved more than 80% of seafood, which was completely leaving him no way to survive.
But even if he was targeted like this, Manager An could only endure it and watch Chen Yuansu seize his market.
In a street market in Rongcheng, some vendors and stall owners complained.
"Manager An, your price is a bit expensive. Xinyuan Aquatic Products is 30-40 cents cheaper per pound than you, and the supply is better than yours."
"Now customers are going there to buy. If this business continues like this, we can't do it."
"Manager An, it's not that we don't want to take your goods, but your price, after we take it, we have to sell it at a loss."
Xiao Lin cursed: "Damn it, this group of people are really fence-sitters, whichever side has the lower price will lean to which side."
An Yuliang smiled:
"Don't get excited, business is business, and favors are favors. If you do business with favors, you will suffer sooner or later."
Xiao Lin complained.
"Boss, you already knew that Director Li raised blue crabs and oysters, why didn't you buy from him earlier?
That crazy woman doesn't want to make money, and she even sells at a loss. Now we can't sell the goods in our hands at all, and we will be criticized by the leaders later."
An Yuliang shook the cigarette in his hand.
He naturally knew that Li Duoyu had signed an agreement with Xinyuan Aquatic Products Company. If Chen Yuansu turned a blind eye to him, there would be no problem.
Now it is clear that they want to deal with him, and Li Duoyu is a very honest person, so it is naturally impossible for him to get goods from him.
From now on, not only blue crabs and oysters, but also kelp, eels and the like, he will not be able to get the goods.
"Then let's not sell these, and sell swimming crabs instead. It happens to be the season for swimming crabs. Let's go to Sharp Wharf. I don't believe that Chen Yuansu can even control the price of swimming crabs."
Xiao Lin suddenly said: "By the way, Director Li got a batch of live swimming crabs last year, and the market response was very good. Should we go to him to get the goods?"
An Yuliang shook his head and said: "No need to go. Director Li didn't get swimming crabs this year?"
Xiao Lin asked in confusion: "Boss, you haven't been to Dandan Island recently. How do you know that Director Li didn't do it?"
An Yuliang smiled.
"Director Li has been very busy this year. He built a new house and raised blue crabs. He must have been keeping an eye on such a big national project on their Dandan Island. Besides, Director Li doesn't care about the little money from swimming crabs. Do you know how much money he made this year?"
Xiao Lin blinked and asked, "How much?"
"Our company has made less money this quarter than he has in a year."
"No way, so exaggerated?"
An Yuliang sighed, "I underestimated him at the beginning. If he continues like this, his Minlong Food will soon become a behemoth."
Thinking of this, An Yuliang on the truck couldn't help but light another cigarette. In just two years, the changes are really huge. They are still standing still, or even regressing.
But these two younger generations, Chen Yuansu and Li Duoyu, have grown to a point that makes him feel out of reach.
"Boss, I don't think it's necessary to fight with Mr. Chen. It's not good for us. When Mr. Chen really takes over our company, you might be the first one she drives to."
An Yuliang smiled: "Anyway, I'm about to retire. It doesn't matter. I've told you many times not to keep hanging out with me. Change your camp."
Xiao Lin laughed: "That's so boring. When doing things, you should have a beginning and an end. Hehe, if I can't make it in Rongcheng in the future, I will go to Director Li."
"You kid, when did you hang out with Li Duoyu?"
Xiao Lin laughed: "Didn't you, Boss, tell me to learn from Director Li all day long?"
An Yuliang said disdainfully: "Director Li would never want someone like you. You can't even drive a car. You want your master to be your driver all day long."
Xiao Lin complained: "That's because your old Jiefang is too difficult to drive. It stalls as soon as it is put into gear. If it had been replaced by a new Dongfeng, I would have learned this long ago."
"It's all about food, and it's also about the car. As long as you learn this kind of liberation, other cars will be able to drive."
In fact, An Yuliang has done his best for the company Rongcheng United Distribution, and he already understands that it will be acquired sooner or later.
After struggling for a year, he originally wanted to give up, but unexpectedly, his old rival came to find him in person.
I hope that I can join forces with him to make a plan so that Xinyuan Aquatic Products can be taken over by Chen Yuanyu more smoothly.
At the same time, he was asked to play the bad guy, making the young man who was about to take over the company suffer and create as much trouble for her as possible.
And these things.
He couldn't tell his apprentice that Chen Yuan Yuan's combination of punches really made him uncomfortable and passive.
But for him, he is still too young and has too much to grow.
An Yuliang smiled and said: "Xiao Lin, please contact those fishmongers with large shipments in the past two days to have a meal together."
Xiao Lin understood instantly: "Okay, I'll do it right away. Shall we still eat at the same place?"
"Um."
And as An Yuliang said, Li Duoyu has been really busy recently.
Although he already knew that the aquatic products market in Rongcheng was in chaos, he didn't bother to care. The big fish eats the small fish. This is the law of the market.
In the past two days, Li Duoyu had just finished working on kelp seedlings, and his uncle Chen Dongqing even came over to scold him.
"I left so many kelp seedlings for you, so you should give me some snacks. Others don't have enough. You are the only one who is slow."
Seeing that his uncle kept complaining, Li Duoyu said directly: "I sold blue crabs and oysters and made about 45,000."
Chen Dongqing's face turned dark instantly:
"Fuck you, can you please stop talking about money with state cadres all day long? We must have feelings and dedicate ourselves to the organization."
"In two days, I will go to the Friendship Store to buy something. Do you want to go with me?"
"Go, of course."
What troubles Li Duoyu the most now is that his father is really angry this time and taught him a lesson all night last night.
"Shui Hua's house was built later than yours. Look at it, it's been more than half a month since they moved in. Your house has been built for so long and you haven't even bought a bed yet."
“I always say yes, yes, yes”
"Anyway, before the Chinese New Year, you must help me get this house-warming thing done." (End of Chapter)
