Chapter 605: Trade Fair
Xia Ran nodded: "That's what I mean. Work hard, boys."
Someone actually listened to the plane change and asked after thinking about it seriously:
"Boss, if the deal is successful, do we have that much money? Do we have that much supplies to give to them?"
Xia Ran affirmed: "Yes, don't worry, I know what's going on. This is the problem I should worry about. You just need to do your job with peace of mind.
Remember to extend the payment period as much as possible when negotiating, and it is best to use barter.
If the other party asks for payment in cash, we will use their rubles as payment in cash.
Try to negotiate installment payments with the other party and pay in several installments.
But the probability of this happening is not high. They will probably choose to barter. I specifically singled this out so that everyone can understand it."
The current transportation capacity is limited, so please ship the goods slowly. I believe the other party can understand.
Even if you don't understand, there's nothing you can do about it. The number of trips that can be made in a year is fixed and quantified. How big can the maximum cargo volume be?
Similarly, she couldn't get tens of millions worth of goods immediately, but she could still supply them in batches.
The purpose of barter is to make the most of a small investment, to exchange our sesame seeds for the other party's watermelon.
Otherwise, what are we all working so hard for?
Of course, she didn't say this to everyone, she had to tell everyone her strength.
People all admire the strong. If they want others to always be loyal to them, they must show their "muscle" (strength).
"Okay, we'll make a note of that."
After hearing Xia Ran's affirmation, everyone was eager to try and full of confidence.
They didn't expect the boss to be so powerful and rich. They were completely relieved.
Because at the request of their boss, they had learned some Russian in advance.
Even if the pronunciation is extremely unstandard, it is still a huge advantage compared to those who can do nothing but say "欠欠".
It is also easier to win the trust and recognition of the Russians.
……
She is the only woman in the team, which is very inconvenient.
So, she had to stay in a hotel by herself.
We need to recruit more female comrades.
Xia Ran had a very good impression of Ms. Li Fenlan, whom she met on the bus from Shanghai to the capital. She was quite to her liking.
It’s a pity that he has a family, otherwise he could be recruited to work.
Or, ask her afterwards, what if she is willing to come over?
-
The next morning, Xia Ran got up early, set out from the hotel, and went to the trade fair with a bag on his back and a large bag of goods in his hands.
This trade fair is located on a road bordering the two countries, with one end exporting to Dasu and the other end exporting to our country.
Border residents of our country can only use our own entrances and exits and cannot use the other side's entrances and exits.
The same is true for the other side's border residents.
If you dare to cross the line, you might be greeted with a real bullet.
The border checkpoint is set up in this trade fair to maintain public order and resolve various disputes.
It was a kind of shed, and from a distance it looked particularly like the temporary epidemic prevention and control testing stations set up during the epidemics in later generations.
Xia Ran arrived early enough and found that there were many people who arrived earlier than her.
When the time came, Xia Ran followed the crowded crowd into the trade fair.
She didn't make an appointment to meet with Lao Peng and the others. They had already agreed on it yesterday and everyone should do their own job.
She acted alone.
With his good skills, he robbed a place that he thought was pretty good.
Spread the plastic sheet prepared in advance on the ground and start picking up the goods.
Having already seen the Russians, Xia Ran started shouting loudly in Russian while getting things out.
Xia Ran spoke in Russian, which was attractive enough in itself, and with her full strength and thick skin, her voice was particularly clear and loud.
It attracted a lot of Russians to gather around.
When she wasn't paying attention, an old Russian stuffed a mink scarf into Xia Ran's hand, snatched away three tubes of toothpaste and two rolls of paper that had just been taken out and not yet laid out, and turned and ran away.
"Fuck~"
Before she could figure out what was going on, another person stuffed a roll of money into Xia Ran's pocket, saying "I owe you", and took away two tubes of toothpaste.
Xia Ran saw that this wasn't acceptable, as it was still popular to just grab things directly.
What about the negotiation phase? Was it eaten?
So gorgeous was omitted?
I suddenly felt unwell!
Yitulu stuffed the clothes and other things he had just put out back into the big bag and sat directly on it.
Staring at the toothpaste and toilet paper that were already placed outside, as well as toothbrushes, facial oil and so on.
It is not advisable to take out too many things, otherwise she will be unable to defend it alone against four people.
Without taking time to check, he quickly stuffed the mink scarf and money into the bag on his chest and started to greet the next customer.
An uncle asked: "Do you have sportswear?"
"Yes, what do you plan to exchange for it?" Xia Ran breathed a sigh of relief, finally meeting a normal customer.
"How about using this?" A middle-aged man took out a whole piece of white fox fur.
Isn't this encountering her blind spot? Xia Ran doesn't even know how much this piece of fox fur is worth. It's really terrifying.
I touched it with my hand and it was very smooth and soft, with thick fluff. It looked shiny and textured. It should be pretty good, right?
He asked back: "How do you exchange it? One for a set?" Listen to what the other party says first, then watch.
"No, no, two sets of clothes and two bottles of wine, do you have any?"
Xia Ran said, in accordance with the principle of bargaining, "I have wine, but I can't give you two sets of clothes and two bottles of wine. At most, one set of clothes and one bottle of wine."
"Hala Shao (good), Da Wai Yi (deal)!"
Xia Ran was ready to continue bargaining, but in the end, the deal was reached in such a muddled way?
She didn't know what to say.
But he still quickly took out a set of sportswear with five Xs on it from his bag and handed it over.
People picked up the wine from the stall themselves and unscrewed the cap as soon as they got it.
He took a sip, gave a thumbs up and praised: "Volga of China, Mr. Hara."
A man nearby smelled the alcohol and became excited.
He stuffed a watch into Xia Ran's hand, pointed at the uncle who was drinking and said, "Wine, change wine."
After saying that, he took two bottles himself, stepped back a few steps, and started showing off without leaving the place.
Xia Ran:……
What kind of custom is this? Forced buying and selling?
However, seeing that it was a mechanical watch and looked relatively new, Xia Ran accepted it.
Anyway, these goods she buys are basically from manufacturers, and the prices are extremely low, so she can just do whatever she wants with them.
Besides, the price of a bottle of wine is almost negligible, so she will make a profit no matter how she changes it.
Afterwards, Xia Ran collected a bunch of things using all kinds of strange procedures, many of which were second-hand goods.
Like mink hats, woolen coats, watches, telescopes, cameras, commemorative medals, Soviet stamps and so on.
Her place has almost become a grocery store.
These border residents took out their daily necessities to exchange for other things, which shows how bad the current situation over there is.
This is the serious consequence of unbalanced economic development, the inability to be self-sufficient, and the reliance on imports for food, clothing and shelter.
Otherwise, even though many places in Dasu are dry, rainless and cold, its area is still large enough.
Many places are very fertile.
