Hello 1983

Looking at the back of the crowd, Leo was blinking at him. Victor, who was standing next to him, was calm and composed, with the air of a successful businessman, he must be the mastermind.

Since Leo gave up all his girlfriends as babysitters, of course Liu Qingshan couldn't ignore his kindness, so he said with a smile:

"Good water can not only lead to health, but also to beauty. This beautiful lady, thank you for your trust."

Rose also laughed happily, she was really a bit coquettish, it seems that this nurse is quite competent.

Liu Qingshan handed her a leaflet: "Beautiful lady, here is the address of our booth, you are welcome to negotiate."

As a result, the stack of leaflets in his hand was snatched away by the foreigners around him.

Company Commander Hao was so dumbfounded, he quickly yelled: "Mr. Liu, I'll wait at the booth first, it looks like there's going to be big business!"

He still felt sorry for the hundreds of bottles of water that he sent out, but now he wants to understand, isn't that equivalent to the bait cast when fishing?

At this moment, several staff members rushed up suddenly: "Who told you to sell water here, who will be responsible if there is a problem with drinking water!"

"We're not selling it, but giving it away for free." Company Commander Hao hurried up to explain.

One of the leading staff members also asked unceremoniously: "Whether it is selling or giving away, you make your own decisions without the approval of the organizing committee. This is a mistake. Which provincial delegation are you from?"

It's not that Liu Qingshan hasn't thought about this issue, it's just that time is too tight. If he applies to the organizing committee through formal channels, it is estimated that the Canton Fair will be over by the time it is approved.

He was about to negotiate, when he saw Ms. Rose rushing forward, angrily accusing the staff member:

"This water is delicious. We have all drank it. There is no problem at all. Many people want to order it. Are you here to make trouble and prevent us from doing business?"

Don't look at the bluffing of the staff just now, but when they treat foreign guests, they will be honest immediately. They are the God of Wealth, so they must not be offended.

So he nodded and apologized again and again, and left in despair.

Seeing that the propaganda offensive was basically successful, Liu Qingshan signaled to Li Tie to close the stall quickly.

There are still a few boxes of natural soda water left, so let's take them to the booth as samples.

Slightly nodding towards Victor and the others, Liu Qingshan followed the flow of people and entered the exhibition hall.

After several years of development, domestic products have also become much more abundant, especially light industrial products, which have sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain. These are exactly what Liu Qingshan needs.

Chen Dongfang and his gang also took over, and then transformed into a buyer, strolling around the light industry exhibition hall.

It's just launched, mainly to shop around, so I'm not in a hurry to place an order.

All of them have extraordinary manners, and they are all young people under the age of 30. They are still very eye-catching.

When passing those booths, I thought they were overseas Chinese, and greeted them enthusiastically in broken English.

"We can understand Mandarin."

This guy Li Tieniu is not good at learning English, so he yelled when he was struggling to listen.

Then, he stretched out his big hand and patted the young man who struck up a conversation with him: "Brother, your English has a smell of oysters, isn't it from Liao Province?"

The other party couldn't help being a little stunned when he heard the pure scum in his mouth: "I thought you were overseas Chinese from Hong Kong Island or Southeast Asia, but you are fellow villagers!"

As a result, a middle-aged man next to the young man immediately greeted dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Wang, greet foreign businessmen, don't talk to those irrelevant people, they don't order."

"Director Li, all the guests are here."

The young man said something softly, and when he saw Director Li frowning, he quickly shut up and didn't dare to say anything more.

Director Li also gave Li Tieniu a look, and hummed twice: "What kind of big garlic are you running here for?"

Li Tieniu has a straight temper: "We are also here to place an order, why don't we see the goods and ask the price?"

Director Li snorted: "You also place an order, what are you kidding, just like you, can you take out foreign exchange?"

He waved his hands after he finished speaking, like chasing flies away, which meant to tell Li Tieniu and the others to get out of here quickly, and don't waste time here.

"Snob."

Li Tieniu may not look simple and honest, but the more he is like this, the more stubborn his temper will be.

Director Li is a department-level cadre, and when someone pointed his nose at him and scolded him like that, he immediately became angry.

I happened to see two staff members next to me, so I beckoned them to come over, then pointed at Li Tieniu and the others: "Everyone is allowed in, this group of troublemakers, get out quickly!"

The staff didn't dare to point fingers like him. The entrance of the Canton Fair was inspected by special personnel, and it was impossible for idle people to sneak in.

So I explained it to Director Li in a low voice, and Director Li was still indignant: "Don't think that just pretending to be a Hong Kong businessman by dressing like a dog is not a bunch of bumpkins."

Li Tieniu was so angry that he clenched his fists and wanted to go up and teach this guy a lesson.

In the end, Liu Qingshan stopped him, and then led the group to walk a few steps forward to an adjacent booth.

The provinces are all next to each other, so this is the province where Liu Qingshan's hometown is.

Chen Dongfang had already seen Liu Qingshan's intentions, so he handed over a business card: "We belong to Hong Kong Island Longteng Company and want to order a batch of light industrial products."

Then, several letters of intent were signed directly, worth more than 50 US dollars.

This made the staff here very happy: Unexpectedly, it is still a big fish!

While he was busy with his work, he was also winking at the neighbor. The person in charge greeted Director Li cheerfully:

"Old Li, thank you, let's make a deal!"

This scene made Director Li so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

There are light industry exhibition halls here, so the types of products are similar. If he had been more polite just now, maybe someone would have ordered from them.

Li Tieniu was very happy now, and wandered back to the Director Li: "You saw it this time, we really ordered, we didn't lie to you."

The more such words come out of the mouths of honest people, the more shocking they are. That Director Li almost wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.

Longteng's orders are relatively large, and there are many types of goods. In addition to paying in foreign currency, they also need to pay a certain percentage of domestic currency.

These matters are relatively complicated, and need to be discussed slowly between Chen Dongfang and the person in charge of the other delegation.

There was nothing wrong with Liu Qingshan staying here, so he took Zhang Long and Li Tieniu for a walk to the booth in Bishui County.

As a result, it turns out, good guy, there are dozens of foreign businessmen surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside, and upon questioning, they all came here for mineral water.

Among the crowd, Zheng Hongqi and Lao Zhou were busy signing the letter of intent.

Only Company Commander Hao was a layman and not familiar with the business, so he could only stand inside and pass water to the onlookers, regardless of whether they could understand or not, he said mechanically: "Try it, try it all."

"Taste...Mr. Liu, you are back, our water is so welcome!" Seeing Liu Qingshan's smiling eyes, Company Commander Hao hurriedly announced the good news.

After coming to Yangcheng, he has been very worried, but now he is completely relieved.

Then look at Liu Qingshan's young and outrageous face in front of him, the respect in his heart is like the mineral water bubbling out of the ground.

He knew that the water plant was a tripartite cooperation. Although the largest shareholder was Longteng Company, the border guards also held a lot of shares.

With this income, the treatment of comrades-in-arms is not too high.

So in his heart, Liu Qingshan's status has been raised to the same level as the chief.

The mineral water is selling well, of course Liu Qingshan is also happy, after all he is the major shareholder.

However, I still did not forget to remind Company Commander Hao not to exceed the production capacity when placing an order.

After being reminded by him, Company Commander Hao remembered this, quickly counted, and waved to Zheng Hongqi and the others: "Another [-] tons will exceed the standard!"

At the water plant, the current production capacity is still limited. Looking at this trend, it is estimated that the production capacity will need to be expanded soon.

"Qingshan, is there a drought all over the world?"

Seeing Liu Qingshan, Feng Shouxin was also very happy from ear to ear, because Bishui County was very busy, so Feng Shouxin also brought several staff to support.

This is of course a joke, and it is not a place like the African desert, where there is a kind of drought.

It's just that Feng Shouxin couldn't figure it out: when will water be sold for money?

Of course Liu Qingshan knew that the preciousness of this natural mineral water, especially the Chernobyl incident, played a role in fueling the flames.

As long as there is a little guidance, it's no wonder it doesn't sell well.

"The amount has exceeded 50 US dollars!"

Secretary Wang's excited voice also sounded, and he didn't expect that the other products hadn't opened yet, just mineral water, and the task of Bishui County had been completed.

Originally, it was Zheng Hongqi's idea that mineral water would take a ride with their county, and Secretary Wang didn't hold out much hope. His idea was similar to that of Feng Shouxin.

The result happened to be this most unexpected product, which exploded immediately. Their Bishui County's target must be exceeded.

He happily unscrewed a bottle of water, and was about to take a sip when he heard Feng Shouxin's voice:

"Don't drink it, you still keep it for export to earn foreign exchange. This is water, it's more precious than oil."

Secretary Wang had no choice but to unscrew the cap of the bottle. The price of this bottle of water is [-] cents, which is nearly two yuan when converted into domestic currency. It is indeed more expensive than oil.

Liu Qingshan also came up, joking: "It's all right, when you have time, please go to the water plant and take care of it."

Li Tieniu has also been to the water plant, and knows the situation there: "Hey, there's a lot of water in the ground over there. Put the water pipe in your mouth and you'll be full."

Although what he said was a bit rough, it was true. Everyone thought about the cost of the water. Except for labor and the outer packaging bottles, it seemed that there was really no cost.

This is a lucrative deal.

Secretary Wang also shook his head in admiration: "It seems that this old mind really should be changed."

Feng Shouxin was also very touched. He and Liu Qingshan had published articles in the People's Newspaper, so of course his mind and thinking were active.

Now, in his mind, he began to ponder again: In addition to the traditional industries in the past, should we also focus on these emerging industries in the future?

He decided that if he had time, he had to discuss it with Liu Qingshan and dig out some new things from the other party's mind.

Seeing that Zheng Hongqi and Lao Zhou were very busy, Liu Qingshan also hurried forward to help.

For him, he is familiar with this matter, and he has participated in the Canton Fair for two consecutive years, and has achieved good results.

While busy, he also communicated with these foreign businessmen in English proficiently: "Our water plant currently has limited production capacity and cannot meet everyone's requirements. I hope for your understanding."

"Please rest assured that we will soon introduce more production lines to produce more drinking water so that everyone can drink healthily."

With such a slap from him, everyone felt a sense of urgency in their hearts, so the fight became even more exciting.

Liu Qingshan was still pondering: From an economic point of view, is this a herd effect?

Soon, the water plant's annual output of [-] tons has been fully ordered.

Although there were still more than a dozen foreign businessmen clamoring to place an order, it was a pity that Liu Qingshan was also a clever woman who couldn't make a living without rice, so he could only explain the reason clearly and kept apologizing.

The people around were all amazed: at the Canton Fair, it was really the first time that this kind of out-of-stock situation occurred.

And the product is precisely the mineral water that is the least favored. You say it’s evil, right?

In the end, several businessmen left in dissatisfaction after pre-ordering part of the water plant's products for the next year.

They did make a reservation and paid a [-]% deposit.

They all envied those who watched the excitement nearby: they even completed the task of next year's Canton Fair!

Only Liu Qingshan can guess the thoughts of these businessmen. The panic caused by the power station obviously cannot pass in a year or two.

It is precisely these foreign businessmen who are smart enough to place a deposit directly.

Because in Liu Qingshan's plan, in the coming year, the price of mineral water will definitely rise partly with the price of goods.

You must know that in the past few years in China, prices have risen year after year, and mineral water has naturally risen too.

When the front of the booth was finally clear, several people sat there panting.

Although everyone was sweating profusely, their eyes were shining with excitement.

"Brother Qingshan, you are the best!"

Lao Zhou gave a thumbs up. In less than two hours, they had already exceeded the task.

Eight hundred tons of mineral water, with an output value of 80 US dollars, is definitely a good start, and it is still the kind that is very popular.

Of course, Liu Qingshan is also happy: this business, the investment in the mineral water plant, will completely return the cost.

However, he is not in a hurry to use foreign exchange now. The money should be used to expand production.

He knows how big the bottled water market will be in the future.

Hao Lianchang was very happy, and gave everyone a bottle of water. Lao Zhou couldn't help joking with him:

"Xiaohao, you are really generous. I really don't want to drink this water. It feels like drinking US dollars."

Two bottles cost one dollar. At the current price level, I am really reluctant to drink it.

At this time, I saw a few people rushing towards me, and a middle-aged man with a loud voice shouted:

"If you don't want to drink it, then spit it all out!"
