Chapter 1,165. Wang Meilan abandoned politics and became a businessman
Not only Zhao Youcai was curious, Zhao Jun and Zhao Weipeng also wanted to know how Wang Meilan planned to lead the whole village to make a fortune.
After all, with the Zhao family's current methods of making money, hunting and ginseng herding do require manpower, but they don't require dozens or hundreds of people.
Wang Meilan glanced at Zhao Youcai, then gestured towards Zhao Jun and said, "Isn't this what our son said?"
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was startled, wondering why he still has his own business here?
At this time, Wang Meilan looked at Zhao Weipeng and said: "Brother, you are in the big business. My sister-in-law said, you can also help me as a consultant."
"Hey!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Weipeng stood up slightly and pulled the stool one step forward, pretending to be listening attentively.
"Your nephew said that gray leather... Well, that squirrel leather is getting more expensive every year." Wang Meilan said: "That thing can be exported. This year, first-class leather will cost nearly 40 yuan. I guess, in the future,
In our family-owned areas, all the men have to go to the mountains to be beaten."
"Ah..." Zhao Weipeng really took Wang Meilan's consultation seriously. He thought for a while and then said: "Forty yuan is a lot of money. How much money can people in our village make just by catching a boat of fish? So...
Everyone has to do business to make money. But..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Weipeng paused for a moment, and then asked: "Sister-in-law, we are in a rural area. There are squirrels but few. I have not shot this, but I also know that the gadget is quite effective. I am not talking about hunting.
It’s just a fight, so why don’t you have a gun?”
"Yes!" When Zhao Weipeng asked about the idea, Wang Meilan smiled and said, "We have a gun at home."
"You can pull it down, sister-in-law." Zhao Weipeng said with a smile: "The two guns at home are not enough for my family. So what, you want people from the countryside to come to your house to borrow guns and then accept your favor?"
Boss Zhao didn't know the background of the Zhao family. At this time, Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai had some understanding. They looked at Wang Meilan in surprise.
"No!" Faced with Zhao Weipeng's doubts, Wang Meilan slapped her thigh anxiously and said, "We have a lot of guns in our family?"
"There are quite a few guns." Zhao Weipeng said with a smile: "Aren't there just two semi-automatics and one modified one?"
"That's what your nephew and the others use when they go up the mountain. They can't be used by others." Wang Meilan said, "Brother, you don't know that we have a lot of guns in the warehouse."
As she spoke, Wang Meilan slapped Zhao Weipeng in the face and said, "There are five hundred trees."
"How much?" Zhao Weipeng was so shocked that he almost broke his voice. Boss Zhao stood up from the four-legged stool in shock, and his eyes slowly swept over the three members of the Zhao family.
He has traveled all over the country for many years and has seen people opening canteens, snack bars, and even repair departments in big cities, but this is the first time that Boss Zhao has seen someone opening an armed force department.
Although guns are not allowed, what are you going to do if you have so many in your house?
"Uncle." Zhao Jun hurriedly supported Zhao Weipeng, and then explained: "Air gun, five point five air gun."
"Ah..." Zhao Weipeng breathed a sigh of relief, pulled back the four-legged and eight-pointed stool and sat down. Then he looked sideways at Wang Meilan and said, "Sister-in-law, please explain it clearly. It scared me."
"Haha." Wang Meilan smiled and said, "It's my sister-in-law."
Zhao Weipeng twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, thought about what Wang Meilan just said, and then asked: "Sister-in-law, do you want to sell it to them so they can make money by hunting squirrels?"
"Yes, yes!" Wang Meilan nodded repeatedly and said: "That's what I think. If you have money, just give me cash. Hey, if you don't have money, let them take the gun first."
"Is it just a credit card?" Zhao Weipeng asked, and Wang Meilan nodded and said, "Yes, they shoot gray skins, two or three, and the money for the gun comes out."
Wang Meilan had a good idea, but Zhao Weipeng shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, then all the villagers will scold you."
"Huh?" Wang Meilan was stunned and said: "Why are you scolding me? Then who doesn't tease a dozen gray skins all winter? After buying my gun, there will be a lot left over."
"Sister-in-law, to put it bluntly, aren't you the same as me?" Zhao Weipeng said: "Don't talk about a dozen gray skins, they will fight a hundred gray skins, which are enough to miss you. What about another one?"
Sister-in-law, being in a pole is not a business, and you can’t sell guns all over the countryside, right?”
"Tsk!" Wang Meilan clicked her lips, feeling that it was right to say so. At this time, Zhao Jun didn't care about any trade secrets and said directly to Wang Meilan: "Mom, I have to keep those air guns and sell them at a high price. From now on Greyhound
If the price of leather goes up, the price of this gun will definitely go up as well."
Zhao Jun knew that within two or three years, the price of air guns would skyrocket, more than doubling, otherwise Zhao Jun would not have spent 20,000 yuan to buy so many guns.
"Okay, Lan Na." Zhao Youcai said, "People are just like that, don't take it to heart."
As he said that, Zhao Youcai smiled and continued: "If you want to give out credit, they really dare to come and get the gun. But after taking the gun, they won't give you money. What do you do? You can go to your house. Everyone says they have it."
difficulty."
Speaking of this, Zhao Youcai glanced at Zhao Jun and said: "When the time comes, our family won't have to do anything all day long, and they will just go around the village to collect accounts."
Wang Meilan also came from that era and had seen a lot of sinister people. Naturally, she knew what Zhao Youcai said was reasonable. If that were the case, these families would directly change the company to collect accounts.
"Alas!" Wang Meilan let out a long sigh. Seeing this, Zhao Youcai quickly changed the subject and asked Zhao Weipeng, "Brother, are the people in your village still treating you like that?"
"It's incredible now." When talking about this, Zhao Weipeng laughed. We are all fellow villagers, and no one wants to get too stalemate with fellow villagers.
"Then what are you doing?" Wang Meilan asked quickly, and then she saw Zhao Weipeng wave his fat hand and said: "Whoever is more aggressive with me, I will not accept his seafood."
Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan, Zhao Youcai: "..."
"It's not just sea creatures!" Zhao Weipeng smiled and imparted his experience to the Zhao family, saying, "Let's talk about every family's daily life. Who has never had trouble crossing a river? Who's family is the richest in the village? Me!"
As he spoke, Zhao Weipeng puffed up his chest and continued: "He and I will do this and that. Wait until he lets me borrow money. Do you think I can't lend him money?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Zhao Weipeng said this, Wang Meilan became even more angry. She usually doesn't just get along with these families, she usually also walks around the village, or when someone is in need.
After borrowing money, she would also come to Wang Meilan's door to ask for help.
In the past six months, Wang Meilan has lent money to villagers, but these people obviously did not remember Wang Meilan's kindness.
"Later, when my father and mother went out, the villagers had to say hello when they saw them far away." Zhao Weipeng said with a smile: "You have to be enthusiastic when saying hello, or are they waiting?"
As he spoke, Zhao Weipeng quietly looked at Wang Meilan and said, "My dad became the village chief last year."
Wang Meilan: "..."
"Hahaha... ok, Lan." Zhao Youcai laughed, gently touched Wang Meilan's shoulder with his hand, and said jokingly: "Our home is not close to the sea, so you can't help but accept other people's fish."
Wang Meilan rolled her eyes at Zhao Youcai. She was blessed in her soul. Wang Meilan's eyes lit up and she looked at Zhao Jun and asked, "Son, do you think it's okay for me to set up the farm to collect mountain goods?"
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was startled when he heard this. He had long had the idea of collecting mountain products in the forest area, but he wanted to implement it not now, but ten years later.
That is, after the hunting ban, the original forest in Yong'an was almost cleared. Zhao Jun wanted to cover a few hills at that time, and then breed second-generation wild boars, forest frogs, and forest chickens in the mountains...
Mountain products, fungus, mushrooms, Ganoderma lucidum, and chaga are also valuable things, and Zhao Jun is also interested in getting them.
But now Zhao Jun's energy is still on hunting. After all, mountain products are not valuable now, but bear bile and other things are valuable, and he can quickly accumulate original funds.
But if Wang Meilan is willing to start this stall now, it will undoubtedly pave the way for Zhao Jun's future.
"That's okay, Mom." Zhao Jun agreed: "Don't do too many kinds of things, such as bear bile, big leather, etc. Those things are too expensive. We will pick the ones that can make money, like gray leather, original leather, etc."
Yeah, that's all fine. If you take it back, don't worry about selling it. You can keep it for a year or two, and it won't matter."
At this time, fungus, pine nuts, etc. were not valuable, and there was not much profit in transporting the whole thing down the mountain. Therefore, Zhao Jun thought of hoarding skins.
"Huh?" But Zhao Weipeng interjected: "The fungus, pine nuts, hazelnuts and so on in our forest are also fine. Sister-in-law, if you don't mind the trouble, you can save a pile of them after you collect them and sell them to me. I will transport the wood next year.
, took it with him and took him away."
Hearing Zhao Weipeng's words, Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan's eyes lit up. Compared with what they gained during the siege, the threshold for collecting mountains was lower. Especially women, who went to the mountains in groups of three and two to collect mountain goods. In spring, there are fungus and wild vegetables.
In autumn, there are also fungus, plus pine nuts, hazelnuts and other dried fruits.
"Brother." Wang Meilan asked: "Xiaohe Fish, do you want some dried fish?"
"Yes." Zhao Weipeng said: "But you have to put aside the salt and brine. Don't let it get boring at the other end, and it will get worse again and again."
"Yes." Wang Meilan nodded and said: "Actually, there are a lot of good things in our forest area. Mushrooms and other things are all fresh. I will collect them to dry that one when the time comes."
"Yes!" Zhao Weipeng said: "Ten miles and eight villages, sister-in-law, just take it."
As he said that, Zhao Weipeng raised his hand and said: "I heard from my brother that Zhao Jun's new house is ready for his wedding. You will all move there when the time comes. If this house is vacant, just use it to collect mountain goods. Who in the eight villages within ten miles has one?"
Just come to your place and sell it."
After hearing Zhao Weipeng's words, Wang Meilan smiled and said by analogy: "I can go out and collect them every now and then."
"Are you going out to collect?" Zhao Youcai frowned and asked: "Why are you going? You are not like the two men who came to collect skins. They collect skins and roll them up in one package. You collect fungus, pine nuts, etc., and you collect several sacks at a time.
, how are you doing?"
Even if your family wants to buy a car, the car burns oil, not water. Even if you drive for a trip and collect those little things, the profit will not be enough to fill the tank.
"I'm going to drive the donkey!" Wang Meilan would think of her own donkey whenever something happened. When people came, she would think of killing the donkey to entertain guests, and when there was work, she would think of the donkey to do the work.
"That donkey is obedient." Wang Meilan finally praised the little donkey and said, "I will go ahead and it will follow. I will hitch it to the cart and hitch the sledge to the sledge in winter. It will have a good time. I will go out for a walk."
Zhao Youcai curled his lips when he heard this, but Zhao Jun blinked his eyes. The people in the mountains drove donkeys to collect mountain goods, which reminded him of a person.
"Can you move it yourself?" Zhao Youcai poured cold water on Wang Meilan and said, "The big sack is full. If you want pine nuts or hazelnuts, it will be very heavy."
"What are we, this group of people, afraid of?" Wang Meilan said, "Bring them to Xiaomei and the others when the time comes. After planting the land next year, we will start working."
As she said this, Wang Meilan suddenly remembered something and said to Zhao Jun: "Don't we still have a piece of land to the north of our new house? Tomorrow you will take the ministers, and you can load up the tent poles and surround them."
"Mom, what are you doing?" Zhao Jun said, "Our backyard is big enough."
"Let's circle it first." Wang Meilan said: "When it gets warm next year, I will build a warehouse there for loading."
As she said that, Wang Meilan's eyes flashed and she said, "Let me see who dares not to choose me next time?"
