Chapter 461: 1986, Young Master Hala! (Seeking a monthly ticket)(1/2)
After chatting for a while, Zhang Long spoke: "Qingshan, my comrade Xu Guoqiang has been transferred to the Economic and Trade Bureau for more than half a year, and he is doing well now."
"He said that in half a month, the border trade will start trial operation. Do we have to set the price of dozens of goods here?"
Of course I have an impression of Xu Guoqiang and Liu Qingshan, and I am also a person who values love and friendship, so I helped them find this big venue.
Of course, Liu Qingshan did not treat others badly. He took two thousand yuan and asked him to work on the event. It seemed that the effect was pretty good.
As for the price, it's really hard to set.
Because China and the Soviet Union have been isolated for decades and have no trade between each other, and even the currencies of the two countries do not have a clear exchange ratio, the most primitive barter trade is adopted.
It is precisely for this reason that the period when the border trade began was the most chaotic and of course the most profitable stage.
After thinking for a while, Liu Qingshan spit out another bubble: "Just like this piece of bubble gum, you have to change to a pair of big leather boots."
After saying that, I felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange, so I looked around and saw that everyone looked at him like a fool.
At this moment, as soon as the door opened, Hou San suddenly came in and shouted:
"Boss, you just want to change the bubble gum that costs 2 cents, which is worth at least 10 yuan. Do you really think Russians are fools?"
With Hou San's arrival, the team of Liu Qingshan Longteng Company was basically intact.
Only Li Xuemei and Xiaomei were left, and they were still contacting customers from the hotel.
When things are traded back, they have to be sold before they can be cashed out, so they have to win over a group of distributors.
Hou San smiled and hugged Liu Qingshan: "Boss, everyone is looking forward to you coming to host the event."
After saying that, he blinked a few more times: "That's right, it's the price you just mentioned, it's a bit outrageous, right?"
"How bold a person is, how rich the land is." Liu Qingshan replied happily.
"Qingshan, you have been criticized for a long time and do not conform to objective laws at all." Yu Guangming immediately pointed out Liu Qingshan's mistake.
Liu Qingshan nodded: "It is definitely not possible to put it elsewhere, but it is just right now. I ask everyone, do you know what the prices of things on the Russian side are?"
Everyone shook their heads together.
Liu Qingshan continued: "By the same token, the Russians don't know the price of goods here. They are blind people touching elephants, so there is too much room for operation here."
Hou Sanyi slapped his thigh: "I understand a little. For example, if the Russians like to drink, then white wine is a tough currency, right?"
"We must also have a pricing standard inside, and then we will use liquor as a reference."
The one who has the most stock in Liu Qingshan is liquor, and it is also high-quality wine.
It’s easy to make a charter. The liquor they come in is basically low-end, with a cost price of about one dollar.
With this reference, other goods will be easier to price.
For example, bubble gum, five pieces of bubble gum, can support one pound of white wine, and so on.
Everyone has gathered together, so of course you have to have a good meal at night. In winter, there are basically no vegetables except carrots and cabbage, but the fish and meat are still very rich.
Especially the big fish in Longjiang, after stewing, the taste is very delicious.
The person responsible for cooking was Xu Guoqiang's parents and one of his sisters. When they were having dinner, they called Xu Guoqiang.
Seeing that Xu Guoqiang was wearing four cadre uniforms, his comrades joked.
Xu Guoqiang first thanked Liu Qingshan, then talked about trade and revealed a lot of internal news.
These are very helpful for the upcoming border trade.
After several days of running around on the road, Liu Qingshan wanted to rest early, but someone called him.
Hearing Director Zhou's hearty laughter came from the phone, the black and dirty face appeared in front of Liu Qingshan.
The voice of the big old man Hei came over: "Manager Liu, you don't say anything when you come to Heihe, it's too insignificant!"
Obviously, Big Lao Hei was in a good mood, and Liu Qingshan could also predict this.
When he passed by, he saw that the hotel's business was booming, so naturally it was full of wealth. Of course, the director Da Lao Hei was in a good mood.
So he smiled and said, "Director Zhou, congratulations."
"It should be the same joy and happiness. Let you go today and we will gather together tomorrow." Director Zhou on the other end of the phone also knew that Liu Qingshan had just arrived, and after chatting for a few words, he put down the phone.
He is currently in Longteng Business Hotel, in a conference hall of the hotel, the city leaders and representatives from the city of Blagoveshensk opposite, are conducting final consultations.
"This Comrade Liu has really grown up with a business dealer."
Director Zhou said to himself that he had been raising his heart when he had invested so much in building this hotel.
If you lose money, it will be miserable.
But unexpectedly, before the border trade began, customers from all over the world gathered here, the hotel rooms were full every day, and there was no order to eat at the catering department.
Moreover, the representatives from the city opposite were very satisfied with the big hotel, saying that the people from their side must stay here.
Among them, there are reasons for the surge in migrant population, and the hotel's signature is strong: it is opened by the public security, and the safety is absolutely guaranteed.
Those who come out to make money and do business are the most worried about safety issues.
In addition, the design of the hotel is also relatively advanced, with one-stop service.
Director Zhou is completely convinced now. Comrade Liu is definitely a boy who gives money.
So when I met Li Xuemei and Xiaomei just now, when they heard that Liu Qingshan came today, Director Zhou made a call in a hurry.
After putting down the phone, Liu Qingshan chatted with everyone for a while and went to bed early.
It's cold here in winter, so of course you have to sleep in a kang.
Liu Qingshan was indeed a little tired and slept until dawn.
I also had a dream at night, dreaming of a big white bear, always wandering in front of my eyes...
January 1, 1986 was the day when China and the Soviet Union officially restarted border trade.
Two great countries that have been in love and fighting each other for decades finally shook hands again.
There are no eternal enemies, nor are there eternal friends.
But time has changed, but each other's situation is completely different: my former younger brother is developing rapidly with each passing day;
And the former big brother is already in a state of decline.
After breakfast, Liu Qingshan and his group carried large bags and small bags and set out in a vast way to Daheihe Island.
Most of the soldiers in the team are like a team of warriors rushing to the battlefield.
Perhaps for them, this is indeed a battlefield without gunpowder.
It crunched, and the soles of the shoes were stomping on the snow, making a pleasant sound.
It had just started to snow, and the air was particularly fresh. Everyone was whispering, and white air spurted out from their mouths, and the hat quickly condensed into white frost.
Their warehouse is not far from the river, and is not far from Daheihe Island. In total, it is not even three times away from the ground. It has to be included in the distance on the river.
Liu Qingshan, one after another, and two big bags on his shoulders, striding at the front of the team.
It is another new year, and he will embark on a new journey.
Taking a deep breath of cold air and looking at the big island standing in the river not far away, Liu Qingshan's mouth showed a confident smile:
Hello, 1986!
Thinking about the Russians who were about to face, Liu Qingshan smiled again. Maybe he should say this: 1986, Mr. Hara!
There are also some vendors who are walking towards the direction of the Big Island.
Each one also has umbrellas on their backs.
Those who dare to do business with the Russians when the port is just opened are not ordinary people.
As pioneers, I don’t know how many millionaires, millionaires, or even billionaires will be born among this group of people in the future.
But now, people's faces are mostly confused except for excitement.
After decades of dealing with each other, they don’t know what goods the Russians need.
Liu Qingshan even saw that one person was carrying two large baskets, one filled with frozen pear eggs, and the other was filled with frozen fish.
If you want to talk about frozen pears, you may be able to exchange for something. As for frozen fish, you will probably have to pick them back. The most important thing that the Russians lack is fish.
Before I knew it, I came to the riverside, where there was a border guard station to conduct a preliminary inspection first.
Xu Guoqiang had already helped Liu Qingshan and the others to complete the procedures. When it was his turn to pass the post, the team of soldiers saluted him in one go.
Liu Qingshan was stunned, and then he remembered that when he came last year, he went to the border station and sang a song about Little Bai Yang, so these soldiers should all know him.
But there were too many soldiers at that time, so Liu Qingshan could not remember his appearance one by one.
He was not a soldier, so he couldn't respond to the military salute, so he could only keep nodding: "Thank you all for your hard work, comrades."
The merchants looked at him with surprise: Why does it feel a bit like the army leader reviewing?
Xiao Wu smiled and took out a small box of bubble gum and stuffed it to the team leader. After the other person saluted, he said that he could not accept things.
"We are all a family, and this thing is just to chew and blow bubbles." Xiao Wu said, and also demonstrated it and spit out a bubble.
It was just a little cold outside, the bubbles were blown a little small, and then they broke and stuck to Xiao Wu's nose.
