Tianqi Agricultural destocking, and once the news of water release spread, it soon spread among colleagues. In an instant, Huishui Town became lively again.
In order to facilitate the uniform delivery, Chen Ergou first contacted Xiaoqin Carton Factory and added a gift box full of Chinese red to meet the needs of giving gifts on Christmas Eve and before the New Year. Xiao Baiyang arranged a packing team to the cold storage in advance, and packed a packing box on the cement open space outside the cold storage. Three dollars were added to each box, and shipped regularly and in a regular and quantitative manner every day to the peers in need.
has only two conditions, one condition is that it must be settled in full and no debts are owe. Another condition is that every merchant, whether it is a five-pound or a ten-pound box, will be capped at 5,000 boxes. This is to make friends who want , Apple, have the goods to get, and avoid the ability and funds from merchants, and buy out the part they have to inventory at one time, and then hoard and resell.
During those days of Huishui Town, big and small cars came and went. The primary school opened at around 7 a.m. and closed after twelve o'clock in the morning.
Chen Ergou's office and the conference room where several girls worked were like the train station during the Spring Festival travel rush, with people coming and going in and out. Chen Ergou burned the stove, prepared tobacco and tea, and warmly welcomed every friend who came to talk about it. No matter whether you only have three or five hundred boxes of micro-businesses or one or two thousand boxes of large customers, you will be treated equally with enthusiasm. We also won preferential prices from express delivery companies for some small customers. Help some people who don’t have a car to pick up goods, contact trucks, etc.
has removed half of the inventory within a week. Some people who are not very familiar with Chen Ergou immediately changed some of the rumors about Chen Ergou being a human being that he heard about before. Especially the number of peaches in the summer, which cost 100,000 yuan, Chen Ergou made a hit. After the promotion of the official WeChat account of the county newspaper reporter, some people with bad intentions, envy and hate, people who have had festivals and frictions with Chen Ergou, such as Wang Xuefeng, and various rumors and stories about Chen Ergou spread like wildfire. One spread to ten, ten spread to hundreds, and one was transformed a lot, and it was not said that it was transformed long ago, and it was also vague.
Some colleagues who have not dealt with Chen Ergou, Qingfeng and Wangshan, all thought that the three of them were the kind of people who only recognized money but not people, had a stern face, were arrogant, spoke ugly, had no room for maneuver, etc. Especially Chen Ergou, who can achieve such great achievements in the rural society must be a person who is a person with few words and bad temper.
The result, after a while, I realized that Chen Ergou's character is far from the cold, ruthless, cunning, and difficult to deal with as the legendary person in people's mouth. On the contrary, whether it is Qingfeng, Wangshan, or Chen Ergou, especially Chen Ergou, they are not only enthusiastic, generous, generous, but also enthusiastic. He looks not as people describe. He looks ugly, looks a little evil, is serious, has yellow teeth, and is sloppy. He is obviously a clean and tidy person, dressed properly, and smiled brightly and was full of courage. A person with extraordinary conversation, a straightforward expression, humorous and politeness.
is like a person who has never met Chen Ergou and has dealt with him for the first time, holding Chen Ergou's hand and saying: Mr. Chen, before I saw you, I thought you were a person who was difficult to deal with, just like some people in the circle of people in their circle, introverted and indifferent, not verbal, and full of calculating people. The result is exactly the opposite. It’s true that seeing is true, and hearing is false! It’s really a pleasure to talk to you. It’s straightforward and can be done in just a few words. You have a Confucian and business temperament. The ancients said that a gentleman is as gentle as jade, and I am worth it this time. I hope we will cooperate more and communicate more in the future.
Chen Ergou smiled modestly and said: If you don’t dare to take it, you are all colleagues, and it’s time to help each other. Cooperate more in the future.
has been half gone, and the funds have been collected. People in the peer circle also have enough inventory to deal with the orders from Apple that are dumped by upstream merchants. Each one takes the best of both worlds. The matter of Apple destocking such as
has come to an end. Chen Ergou and the head of the court, Wangshan and Qingfeng, immediately discussed the next step of action.At this time, the persimmon cake market, as An Ran and he had expected before, slowly declined from the highest point. In just three or five days, the price fell below twenty yuan, and the market was filled with a negative, bleak, and even panic. Shipping volume is still very small. The price decline not only made no one take over, but bought at the bottom, but instead caused more people to look forward to it.
Chen Ergou made it clear to Wangshan and Qingfeng that he decided to dye his hand persimmon cake and prepare to buy it at the bottom. Before buying at the bottom, he had to go out for a few days, as An Ran and his master Lin Yujing said before, to do a solid visit and field investigation. Then decide whether to do it or not.
After Chen Ergou finished speaking, Wangshan looked at him, felt Chen Ergou's determination, and said nothing more, and turned to look at Qingfeng.
Qingfeng frowned and bit his lip tightly, as if weighing the pros and cons, thinking about Chen Ergou's decision.
The room was suddenly quiet and there was only the coal in the stove, with an occasional crackling or two sounds made. Yes, if Chen Ergou decides to dye his hand persimmon cake, even if the price of the persimmon cake drops to 14 or 15 yuan per pound, then the ones invested in it will be more than 100,000 or 200,000 or 300,000. It can be said that if you accidentally lose everything, it means that the profit of hundreds of tons of apples is wasted. He had to think deeply.
Wangshan took the cigarette box, dispersed one for Chen Ergou and Qingfeng, and ordered one for himself. The three of them surrounded the stove and began to smoke while thinking about Chen Ergou's decision. The main thing is to wait for Qingfeng to speak out and express his suggestions and opinions.
After a while, Qingfeng took his last puff of cigarette, stuffed the cigarette butt into the small hole in the stove lid, smiled slightly, and said: Ergou, did you go up the mountain two days ago and talk to your master and Anran about this?
Chen Ergou nodded, smiled and said: Well, let’s talk to Anran first. Finally, I talked to my master. After going down the mountain, I gradually developed a way of thinking. By the way, I went to Xiaoqin Carton Factory and asked Xiaoqin about the shipment of various gift box packaging for persimmon cakes during this period. I also asked him about some merchants who came to set persimmon cake packaging and retail investors' opinions and expectations on the persimmon cake market.
In short, the current situation is that everyone is not optimistic about the future market for persimmon cakes. The only thing you can do now is to digest the goods in your hands as soon as possible. Because the purchase price is high, the supply price quoted is also high. The retail price set by the platform makes many consumers and old customers afraid to place orders at will. In previous years, people, companies and units who chose to use persimmon cakes to give gifts are now hesitating. Some units and groups are even considering using other special products to replace persimmon cakes. Some individuals now only buy three or five kilograms, and then try it first. They haven’t decided whether to buy a few boxes to give to others.
So, the entire Caocun Town persimmon cake inventory was almost not moved. The daily shipments are less than one-fifth of that in previous years. If you calculate the time, leave the time for the persimmon cakes to be shipped and sold. There are less than twenty days for the belt hair. If you really calculate it, it will only take ten days.
Don’t worry, I won’t take action rashly. I decided to go out for a few days, visit and inspect on the spot, and go to Caocun Town for a few days, and go to the core production areas to learn about the purchase and sale of persimmon cakes. After we come back, we will make a decision.
After listening to Chen Ergou's words, Qingfeng nodded heavily and said: OK, you can go to the on-site investigation first to understand the latest situation. After we come back, we will discuss it. If it is really a good time to buy at the bottom as you analyzed, we will just let it go and have a vote.
Wangshan looked at Qingfeng and said: Haven’t you been unfavorable about Ergou’s hands and stocking up persimmon cakes before?
Qingfeng said seriously: Brother Shan, today is different from the past, things have changed a long time ago, not the situation I mentioned earlier.
Now we have just finished half of the inventory and have collected the funds. We have no pressure on the funds. Secondly, the market for persimmon cakes has taken a sharp turn for the worse, which none of us expected. It fell below the second word head and slipped into the first word head. A pound suddenly lost several dollars.Third, we have this need. Just as Ergou analyzed to us before, we just don’t do a big deal, and in order to maintain the existing customers, we have to work hard and do a small deal. Ergou’s group selection, and the customers who send apples in their hands all have the needs of persimmon cakes.
Since we will start the scene sooner or later, let’s wait and see how things develop. If the situation is beneficial to us, we happen to have so many orders in our hands, why not do it! After roughly counting, the profit is considerable, almost the profit of killing and setting fire! It's hard to see in a few years, and it's worth a try.
Chen Ergou looked at Qingfeng, stretched out his fist with a little excitement, and touched Qingfeng gently. Both of them have a tacit understanding that can only be understood but not expressed. No one can predict the
market, one time, another time.
wangshan also smiled and said: Since you both have decided, I have nothing to say, I will sit in the primary school for us, at the back. In order to be safer and more at ease, you two will split into two groups and go out to visit and inspect on the spot. After returning, summarize and analyze the information they know. How about it?
Chen Ergou said: OK, just follow Brother Shan. We are divided into two groups. No matter what, you are from Caocun Town, and you have more acquaintances and friends than me, and the information you get may not be more comprehensive and authentic than me. I have to feel wronged and wronged you, I have to ride a motorcycle to run.
Wangshan took over the conversation and said jokingly: Otherwise, let’s go to the county town tomorrow and let Qingfeng pay a down payment for a car, so at least you don’t have to get cold or cold. We can't afford a car down now.
After saying that, the three of them laughed.
is over, and Chen Ergou said proudly: If we seize this opportunity and finish this ticket, there is nothing to say. After the express delivery is stopped, we will go to the county town and buy you a motorcycle. At least one has to buy one that is more expensive than Anran. Carry a car for Qingfeng to facilitate the pick-up and drop-off of Mengting and Li Lin in the future.
After saying that, the three of them laughed again.
In the middle of December of the Gregorian calendar, during the winter months, Chen Ergou and Qingfeng soldiers split into two groups, looking for their respective connections and familiar friends, and began their field investigation.
Based on his own experience, Chen Ergou has visited almost all the stores selling packaging in Caocun Town, pretending to buy packaging, and asking the boss, retail investors, micro-businesses, and persimmon farmers about the market and prices of persimmon cakes. After that, I went to Chen Pingjin's car repair shop and learned about the shipment of persimmon cakes in their village, the prices, etc. Immediately afterwards, I visited several core areas of the persimmon cake production area near the north. After that, I went to chat with Li Xiaoliang and a few friends I knew, as well as friends I met when I went to stock a few days ago, and mainly asked about the persimmon cake market. Finally, I stayed at a few hotels in the town and found a way to meet a few foreign merchants, and then invited someone to drink, chat, and ask about the foreign merchants' estimates and opinions on the persimmon cake market.
What he didn't expect was that when he invited foreign merchants to drink and chat, he accidentally learned a news that because the price of persimmon cakes in his hometown was too high, most of the foreign merchants did not dare to let go of the acquisition. Now there are rumors that there are also hanging cakes in some place in Shandong, which have almost the same appearance and a little darker color. It is almost difficult to distinguish from the appearance, but the taste is a little worse, but the price is cheap, seven or eight yuan per pound. In addition, many consumers do not know much about the persimmon cakes in their hometown. Therefore, many merchants chose to go to Shandong, even Japanese and Korean merchants who have purchased persimmon cakes for many years, and the news has slowly spread.
A few days later, Chen Ergou contacted Qingfeng, and the two rushed back to the primary school together. They sat with Wangshan that night and began to summarize the information they inquired about. Start analyzing and judging. Finally, we came to the conclusion that the price of persimmon cakes will fall again. Chen Ergou and Qingfeng both concluded that the price of persimmon cakes would definitely drop to 16 or 17 yuan per catty. At that time, wait patiently, and when it drops to 14 or 15 yuan per pound, you will immediately start to collect the goods. During this period, the three of them contacted their own customers and started quoting and estimating the order.The subsequent packaging, shipment, and timely follow-up of consumables must be tied up one by one, and the chain must not be lost.
Chen Ergou suggested that Anran help, as long as the shipment is first delivered, the Great Sage, Lulu and Linlin will be seconded. Let the Great Sage help Xiao Baiyang, be responsible for the entry and exit of the warehouse and the arrangement of the packaging staff, and be prepared for overtime work, and even the possibility of working two shifts. Let Lulu and Linlin help Mengting and Pingping, be responsible for connecting with platform customers for product information, summarizing orders, after-sales service and customer service.
The three of them are divided and cooperated. Chen Ergou and Qingfeng are responsible for receiving goods, Anran and Wangshan are responsible for sitting in the rear, uniformly allocating personnel, contacting express delivery and dispatching cars, and Xiao Qin delivering packaging consumables in a timely manner. Be prepared to stay up all night and be ready to deal with emergencies and problems at any time. The phone is powered on 24 hours a day, and each person prepares a power bank. Communicate with Lingling’s noodle shop in advance and deliver food on time and on time every day to save everyone from going out to eat and wasting time.
Wangshan had already taken out a pen and paper and listed the things he was going to do one by one.
Everything is ready, but the east wind is not available, it depends on how the persimmon cake market is heading.
