Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt

"Although century-old wild ginseng is rare, it's not something that will worry Boss Chen. There should be a few in stock in Wanshen Town. You can just go and buy some."

Boss Chen shook his head. "That boss and I are in the same business, so we don't get along. That ginseng is only about 80 years old, and the asking price is 38,000 yuan. I took such a big risk, and sold it for 40,000 yuan, but I only made 2,000 yuan, which is not enough for the round-trip travel expenses. If the buyer doesn't like it, I will lose it."

Liu Xia Lian now owns a ginseng and deer antler specialty store in Beijing, but she has never received any business for buying hundred-year-old ginseng. Those who can afford to buy goods of this quality are not ordinary people. They know the market price very well, and it is impossible for them to ask for an exorbitant price.

"Okay, since Boss Chen said so, I'll find you one in the next two days. Eighty years, no less, and the efficacy is very good."

"Xia Lian is really straightforward. Have you completed the transaction for the plane with the Russians?"

"No, it's too cold to transport it. It's more than 20 degrees below zero there. The cans will break when they are transported. It will take two months to ship them."

"By the way, has Chen Guoqing contacted you recently?"

"Yes, we have. There is no corn or fruit during this period, but several thousand geese and ducks are transported there every week. What's going on? Is there anything wrong with him?"

"Nothing. He contacted our clan association a few days ago and said that their village is now undergoing rapid development and has sold a thousand acres of industrial land with a forty-year property right. You can buy vacant land or a completed factory building. If you are in the industrial sector and have friends in this area, you can introduce him to me."

"That's fine, but it's too far away. My friends who run factories are all nearby."

"No problem. I still have five days before I go home for the New Year. I hope you can find the ginseng as soon as possible."

After chatting for a while, Liu Xia Lian came out and strolled to the Xiongfeng Electrical Appliance Store. Although the forest farm has long lost its former glory, a kimchi factory has been built and there are more than a dozen villages around it, so it is still the size of a large town.

The electrical appliance store was converted from six rented houses. Now that the New Year is approaching and the weather is cold, people's enthusiasm for shopping cannot be stopped.

As soon as you enter the store, you will see a TV wall. The first thing you see is a 17-inch color TV. This is actually used to attract customers. Since the store opened half a year ago, only two large color TVs have been sold. Behind them are more 14-inch black and white TVs, all of which are manually tuned. Xu Xiong's business is still very good. There are both big-brand electrical appliances. These days, big brands are all state-owned enterprises. The purchase price is high, but the after-sales service is guaranteed and the quality is stable. The main products are the miscellaneous brands that my second sister bought from the south. They are all produced by small factories. The quality is a bit bad, and the main selling point is cheap.

That is to say, when you go in to buy something, you can get cheap ones if you want cheap ones, or good ones if you want good ones.

Normally, two of the three shop assistants would be idle, but today, three of them were very busy. Most of them were buying TV sets. Most of them were buying TV sets for their children's weddings. Families with more money would buy a branded TV set for 300-400 RMB, which was of good quality and could be used for more than ten years. Those with less money would buy a product from a small factory for more than 200 RMB, which was also acceptable, but the quality was slightly worse.

This area is a forest and agricultural area. As long as people are not too lazy, they can pick mushrooms, pick wild vegetables, and grow crops, and the average farmer can earn a stable income of 1500-1600 yuan a year. As for the three villages of Lijiatun, Mangcun, and Zhangjiatun, they are even richer, with many households earning 10,000 yuan.

Televisions, radios, tape recorders, and record players are the main sales products at present. Of course, there is another product, electronic clocks, which is also a dark horse.

Especially electronic watches, which look quite large, look very impressive when hung on the wall or on the table, and can tell time. Because ordinary mechanical watches are expensive, ranging from fifty-six to more than one hundred, and some require tickets to buy. But quartz watches are not that expensive, and they are very profitable. A watch purchased for three yuan is sold for twenty-eight, and acquaintances can give you a discount, twenty-three yuan, and any less will lose money. A watch purchased for five yuan is sold for thirty-five yuan, and one is hung at home so that the whole family can tell time. Especially for those who work at home, they must have a watch, otherwise they will be late for get off work and commuting, and the money will come out after a few fines. The sales staff are busy introducing, invoicing, and shipping, and no one even comes to greet Liu Xialian.

The sound of a tractor was heard outside the door, the engine rumbling, and more than a dozen black-and-white televisions arrived. Two loaders carefully carried them into the store.

When Xu Xiong came in, his eyes lit up: "Sister, why are you here?"

"I'm going to Lao Chen's place. I just passed by and saw a lot of people came to take a look. Sales are pretty good during this period."

Xu Xiong was so happy that his face was dancing with joy: "This is all thanks to my sister. A kimchi factory has made the surrounding area rich. Just this forest farm store has sales of over 3,000 yuan a day. It's mainly because it's the end of the year and there are many weddings. Normally, we can sell 700 to 800 yuan a day."

Needless to say, Xu Xiong was happy, and he himself was happy too. You know, electronic and electrical appliances are high-profit products, which are far beyond the reach of ordinary products.

The delivery man went through the handover and warehousing procedures with the clerk, and Liu Xia Lian and Xu Xiong came to the office.

Xu Xiong said, "Sister, I saw Li Hu a few days ago. He said that now there are three river boats fishing from the Songhua River and one sea boat fishing from the Bohai Sea. They sell 20,000 to 30,000 kilograms of fish every day. Is that true?"

"It's true, but it's nothing compared to what you're doing. Most marine fish sell for 30 or 40 cents a pound, and the net profit per pound is only 5 or 6 cents. You two have each walked your own path, each doing your own thing, there's no need to compare."

"That's right. This year, the supply and marketing cooperatives have started selling firecrackers during the Spring Festival, and the county's yangko team has also started performing. It seems that reform and opening up have really come. The sales of electronic products will be very huge in the future. I want to open an electronics factory. What do you think?"

Liu Xia Lian was shocked. Were her subordinates so powerful? Was it really as described in Qianmen, the art of ascending to heaven? From ordinary people to extraordinary people?

"What do you plan to produce and what will be your main product?" Liu Xia Lian asked.

Xu Xiong said without hesitation: "A Walkman is a small recorder that you can hold in your hand. It can record and play music. You can listen to music by plugging earphones into your ears. It is very popular among young people nowadays."

"Bring it to me and see."

Xu Xiong brought over a small Walkman, the size of a palm, made in Yangcheng, which used four AA batteries, and it actually consumed quite a lot of energy. But the sound quality was excellent, no wonder young people liked it.

But I always have a feeling of time and space confusion. I remember that this thing became popular in 1992 or 1993. How come it has become advanced now?

If you think about it carefully, you will understand. In your previous life, I served in the army for ten years and was basically out of touch with society. This thing may have become popular in rural areas in the 1990s, but it should have started in the 1980s in cities. After all, there are quite a few non-mainstream things in the parks.
