I am farming in the real world

Chapter 90: Reward and Punishment (Subscription requested)

“Information on Far East soybeans? No problem, my friend!”

Upon hearing that it was his business partner Wang Daoliang calling, Smith on the other end of the phone immediately said politely in fluent Chinese: “Give me 10 days, and I will send a team from the ADM commercial investigation department over. The report will be in your hands soon! Since we’re dealing with flies, we might as well swat them dead.”

Wang Daoliang laughed upon hearing this: “Brother Smith, thank you! Don’t fight with me next time you go to Hong Kong. The VIP expenses at the Jockey Club must be on me!”

…

Chen Jue didn't know that the dispatch of unscrupulous villagers to Rizhao to sell some non-GMO soybeans grown by the MC system had inadvertently provoked the local soybean import industry's local bullies.

Even Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), one of the world's four largest grain merchants, was somewhat implicated.

At this time, Chen Jue had already taken a flight overnight and landed at Taoxian International Airport in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, Northeast China.

A brand-new Hongqi HQ9 business car with a Liaoning license plate had been waiting in the passenger area for a long time, and soon picked up Chen Jue.

“Boss, how is it?”

“Did I arrange it well this time?”

The driver was Tie Lao Liu, and Lao Shang, who crawled out from the back seat, handed Chen Jue a tablet pad directly connected to the monitoring system at the bow of the Tie Han No. 002 ship.

Through the monitoring, Chen Jue saw the small bosses who had come after hearing the news, enthusiastically signing contracts, cooperating with payments, and picking up goods around the Hongxing Trading's finance lady, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: “This time it was really well done, Lao Shang!”

After speaking, Chen Jue took out a piece of green jade amulet from his pocket and threw it to the big-nosed middle-aged man who was showing a flattering expression.

This was purchased by Chen Jue from Xinlong Jewelry after buying the 4 bulk cargo ships, using the remaining funds.

He had promised this unscrupulous villager in the back seat that there would be a heavy reward after the matter was completed.

As the boss of this unscrupulous businessman and a young man who had been struggling in the business world, keeping his word was something Chen Jue had to do, and it could also be regarded as establishing a qualified master image for these MC utility-type creatures.

Of course, this Emperor Green amulet, originally priced at 18.88 million, was hard-bargained down to 15 million by him after finding Boss Shi from Xinlong Jewelry and using various tactics.

Boss Shi, who was chubby and liked to play with walnuts, originally didn't want to sell this treasure of the store, saying that it would ruin the feng shui pattern in the jewelry store.

However, after chatting, he learned that Chen Jue was actually the recent rising star in Wenzhou City—the founder of Chen Ji Catering, so he went along with the flow and gave him face.

In recent years, the economy has been sluggish, and the high-end jewelry market for翡翠, jade, and other items has also been greatly impacted.

Top-quality goods like this Emperor Green look valuable but have no market. In reality, most of them are hyped up, and it is not easy to find a wealthy person who sees eye to eye with it to take over.

After all, these days, the wealthier people are, the more they are saving money to withstand risks, facing the coming economic winter. Even the landlords have no surplus food, let alone speculate on these high-value jewelry items.

“Thank… Thank you for the reward, Boss!”

As soon as the big-nosed unscrupulous businessman took the Emperor Green amulet, his eyes almost glowed green.

He immediately hung the amulet around his neck and greedily held it up to his nose, sniffing it in various ways.

Seeing his obsessed appearance with the Emperor Green amulet, those who didn't know would have thought he was inhaling some prohibited substance that could make people high.

“Can this thing really replace [Emerald]?” Chen Jue glanced at the other party with disgust.

“Yes, Boss!”

“This is the source of survival energy for all of us villagers!”

As he spoke, the unscrupulous villager immediately summoned the MC item trading column from before:

Chen Jue glanced at this trading column that hadn't been opened for a long time, and his face lit up with joy: “The Emperor Green amulet I gave you can also be used as an emerald for trading?”

The unscrupulous villager immediately nodded, flattering: “Yes, Boss! You can treat it as a deposit business similar to a bank. As long as you deposit emeralds or substitutes with me, they can be used to offset and cash out for transactions.”

“This deposit function is not bad!”

Chen Jue's face showed a thoughtful expression, and then he teased the other party: “The more emeralds you deposit, can it generate interest like saving money in a bank?”

As soon as these words came out, the big-nosed villager's entire body stiffened, and his face twitched as he quickly shook his head: “Boss! If we could achieve something like money begetting money, then we [Villagers] would not be such a rare species.”

Seeing the other party's embarrassed face, Chen Jue stopped teasing him.

Instead, he looked at the MC items on the trading column that he could afford.

Seeing that only the [Rabbit's Foot] in MC could be purchased with 1 emerald, Chen Jue had no choice but to complain helplessly: “Forget it! It still feels too unworthy.”

“Spending 15 million to buy a rabbit's foot in MC, I could contract a medium-sized live rabbit farm in reality!”

He temporarily deposited the 1 Emperor Green jade amulet with the unscrupulous villager to be used as an emerald.

Anyway, apart from the items in the trading column, the things that the villager comes with are basically owned by Steve Chen Jue and cannot be taken away. Let Lao Shang wear that amulet to pretend to be a big shot.

It is also convenient for Lao Shang to go out and pretend to be cool and talk business in the name of 'Hongxing Trading' General Manager in the future.

…

The Hongqi business car steadily drove out of the airport. After watching the grand trading scene at Rizhao Port Wharf in the car, Chen Jue soon heard the jingle of money arriving in Hongxing Trading's account, and there was another 50 million yuan in cash on the account.

Including the funds that Chen Ji can mobilize, he now has at least 60 million yuan that he can allocate and mobilize.

Of course, this money is only a drop in the bucket for buying high-precision machine tools.

However, this does not prevent Chen Jue from going to the manufacturer to take a look in advance, placing an order in advance, and paying in installments slowly in the future.

Because he had previously run an auto and motorcycle parts processing factory, Chen Jue was very clear about the buying and selling of production lines and machine tools.

Many large and powerful machine tool manufacturers, in order to sell their products and support newcomers to join their downstream industrial chain, will often provide low-interest or even interest-free loan support.

For example, when Chen Jue bought a processing production line worth more than 2 million yuan that specializes in making吊环 when he set up the factory, he only actually paid 60% of the money when he bought it from the manufacturer himself, and the remaining 40% was advanced by the manufacturer itself.

As long as Chen Jue operates step by step, the manufacturer will even help you introduce business and customers. Subsequently, rely on that production line to continuously generate profits and slowly pay off the 40% of the support funds.

If you accidentally go bankrupt, don't be afraid, just take back the production line and equipment according to the installment contract.

Because for the leading manufacturers in the industry, the more and bigger these cooperative small factories in the midstream and downstream are, the more they can feed back to themselves.

New factories need equipment, and expanding production capacity when business is good also requires equipment. There is no way around these source manufacturers.

The main idea is to cast a wide net and earn a steady stream of repeat customer business.

So, after thinking about it, Chen Jue, considering the super-scale of the Magic Cube Factory, flew to Shenyang to find the source manufacturer.

He first went to the Marriott Hotel in the city center, which is famous throughout Northeast China, to rest for one night.

The next morning, Chen Jue took the unscrupulous villager and Tie Lao Liu together and went straight to Shenyang Machine Tool Group in the local economic development zone.
