The educated youth was reborn and wanted to disappear, but he was locked into a military marriage.

The business director smiled: "Otherwise, I'll call someone in later, and you can just hand me a cigarette."

Chen Xudong was well prepared, so he nodded in agreement and thanked him repeatedly.

Unexpectedly, when the leather was moved in, the business director's eyes widened immediately. While taking inventory, he quietly asked someone to call the factory director.

He originally thought that the sheep raised by the production team were slaughtered for the New Year, and there were at most three or four skins. Who knew there would be so many.

When Zhou Weimin, the director of the fur factory, heard that someone had sent a large stack of leathers, he rushed out immediately. When he saw the leathers on the table, his eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly: "Why don't your leathers be sent to the supply and marketing cooperative for purchase? They need to be disposed of." For your own use?”

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "We want to use these leathers to make leather jackets, and they need to be processed."

Zhou Weimin stretched out his hand and touched the completely peeled sheepskin with thick wool. He couldn't put it down immediately. He looked at each of them and finally asked Zhu Xiaomin: "Where are you from? Secretary Yan introduced you here? These sheepskins cannot be exported." ?"

It seems that this person is interested in these skins.

Zhu Xiaomin was helpless: "We are from the first brigade of Cijiakou Commune. These sheep were raised in our breeding base and slaughtered last year. Secretary Yan heard that we wanted to deal with them and introduced us to Director Zhou." As he said, , handed over Yan Yimin's note again.

Zhou Weimin nodded and whispered: "Seeing so many sheepskins, Lao Yan didn't say anything about helping us collect them." He sighed.

Zhu Xiaomin laughed: "Secretary Yan said that our base was just built. Last year, we only slaughtered more than fifty sheep. The meat was sent to the county. I want to keep the skins for my own use. We have already agreed to slaughter more sheep this year. The sheep skins All purchased by supply and marketing cooperatives.”

Zhou Weimin's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "How many will there be this year?"

Zhu Xiaomin was silent for a moment and turned back to look at Chen Xudong.

Chen Xudong immediately said: "Now after last year's expansion, our base has increased from more than 200 sheep to 657 large and small, including 482 sheep. By the end of the year, the unselected sheep will be The rams of breeding sheep and the ewes that failed to be bred have all been slaughtered, and there is no way to give accurate figures yet.”

Zhu Xiaomin added: "This is how the more than 50 sheep were selected last year."

Zhou Weimin nodded repeatedly, touched the sheepskins on the table, and tried to ask: "Or, let us take half of these sheepskins?"

Zhu Xiaomin laughed: "Director Zhou, in such a big factory, what is the use of more than twenty sheepskin tubes?"

Zhou Weimin smiled bitterly: "It's better than nothing. You two should support the production of our factory."

Zhu Xiaomin was helpless, turned over the leather, discussed it with Chen Xudong, and tried to say: "Otherwise, if you keep the goat skin, give us the sheep skin? We make fur coats, and sheep skin is better. If you produce and process it, goat skin can also be used." Bar?"

When Zhou Weimin heard that she was relieved, he was overjoyed and nodded immediately: "It's done, it's done!" He immediately asked someone to count the sheepskins.

Zhu Xiaomin hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile: "Director Zhou, don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Zhou Weimin was stunned: "What else can you say?"

Zhu Xiaomin said: "Director Zhou may not understand that our breeding base is in the development stage. No matter what the product is, the price can be negotiated, but we have to ask for cash."

Zhou Weimin was startled: "Cash?"

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "We will send it to the supply and marketing cooperative. This was agreed with Secretary Yan. Although Director Zhou took it directly this time, we still hope to use this transaction method to cooperate in the future."

Chen Xudong also said: "Every time we make a payment, we have to give a receipt to the team, which will be used by the team to buy equipment, tools, etc. If it is defaulted, it will affect future development."

Zhou Weimin was a little embarrassed, so he had to say: "You guys sit down first, I'll go to the accountant to see how much cash there is." He politely asked the business director to greet him, and went out.

Instead of asking the accountant, it was actually a phone call to the supply and marketing cooperative.

When Yan Yimin heard what he said, he immediately laughed: "I knew that you had to peel off the skin when sending things over, so I sent people to your place. But you keep the things and keep the money. It’s true that we agreed early on and it’s all done now.”

Zhou Weimin couldn't help but laugh when he listened. He asked him how to set the purchase price, and then went to the accountant again.

The weather in this era is much colder, and the Yunzhong area is a northern mountainous area. In winter, it is windy and cold, and sheepskin has excellent warmth and windproof effects, so it has become the best thing to keep out the cold. In addition, due to the shortage of materials, sheepskin is relatively scarce. Therefore, the price of a processed sheepskin is as high as forty or fifty yuan, and in the 1980s and 1990s it could be sold for sixty or seventy yuan.

However, the sheepskins at the base were not processed. After bargaining, they were purchased at a price of eighteen yuan a piece. The additional agreement was that all sheepskins would still be purchased by the fur factory at the end of this year.

This was the sales channel they wanted to open up, so Zhu Xiaomin naturally agreed, but there was also a condition attached, that is, they asked the fur factory to help process the leather they wanted to use.

Looking at the hundreds of rabbit skins brought up by Chen Xudong, Zhou Weimin was surprised but already understood.

During the off-season and when food is about to run out, production teams will organize people to go up to the mountains to catch some wild animals to supplement the food shortage. However, looking at the uneven thickness of their hare skins, it is obvious that they come from all seasons, and 80% of them contain private goods.

It’s just that in this era, everyone is trying their best to fill their stomachs. Most of these things are ignored by the people, not to mention the need to reach cooperation. Naturally, Zhou Weimin didn’t ask too many questions. He counted the rabbit skins and sheepskins together. He collected it, gave him the cash and receipt for the sheepskin purchase, and agreed that Chen Xudong would pick up the remaining items ten days later.

After leaving the fur factory, Chen Xudong looked at Zhu Xiaomin and then asked: "Originally, we said that we would keep all the sheepskins this year, but now there are more than twenty sheepskins missing. Will anyone have any objections?"

Zhu Xiaomin chuckled and patted her satchel: "We didn't give away the more than twenty sheepskins for free. We also opened up the market for next year. The team can only be happy."

Chen Xudong couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it.

Today's negotiation seemed like Zhou Weimin was trying every possible means to secure supplies for the factory. In fact, they also wanted to find sales for the sheepskin. In the final analysis, it was a win-win situation. However, Zhu Xiaomin's detour showed that he was trying to help others, and he was a white-collar worker. As a matter of personal preference, Zhou Weimin gave them a sloppy look on the rabbit skin.

After a trip to the city and solving several things, Zhu Xiaomin was in a happy mood. She gathered the straw on the bed of the car and leaned behind her, looking up to enjoy the scenery along the road and humming a tune.

Chen Xudong was sitting on the other side, and at first his eyes were on the fields in the distance. When he heard the song she was humming, he unconsciously followed her and looked back at her with a smile: "Sister Xiaomin, how did you do that? Can you do everything with ease in your hands?"
