Chapter 497 The God who recited the 'Tao Te Ching' (300.01 million)
Cao Shujie didn't know what Huang Zheng was thinking, but he had a good impression of Huang Zheng.
They work very carefully and very efficiently. The key is that they are not like other construction companies who are too chatty and asking them to do more work is like killing them.
After chatting with Huang Zheng for about 20 minutes, Cao Shujie had other things to do, so he left first.
The 300 cattle raised in the three villages of Caojiazhuang, Zhujiazhuang and Taodong Village are about to be slaughtered.
But they raise them differently from Cao Shujie, they put in less food, and the quality of the meat can only be said to be average.
Wang Leiguang often takes people to buy cattle raised by Cao Shujie, but he will not buy cattle raised by others in Caojiazhuang because of the quality of the meat.
As a result, Cao Shujie had to find a market for these cattle.
Fortunately, the beef market is very hot now, so there is no need to worry about not being able to sell these cattle.
Cao Shujie drove to the door of Li Jiagan's shop along the street. When he saw Li Jiagan, who was lying on a bamboo mat reclining chair and reading the Tao Te Ching because business was not busy, he stopped the car and shouted: "Uncle Li, you are resting."
At this moment, the Tao Te Ching was almost covering his face, and Li Jiagan was about to fall asleep. When he heard someone calling him, he subconsciously straightened up and turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.
When he saw Cao Shujie, he immediately stood up with a smile: "Oh, it's Shujie, why are you here? Get another sheep?"
In Li Jiagan's impression, Cao Shujie buys meat differently from others.
Others may buy 1kg or 2kg at one time, but they can buy 5kg at one time, even 10kg is considered too much.
But when Cao Shujie buys pork, he just asks for a fan. When buying sheep, he always buys them whole.
He now raises his own cattle and no longer buys beef. But the problem is that Cao Shujie has asked him to help butcher it twice, and each time he took back all the meat and offal from the whole cow for consumption.
Not to mention the entire Qingshi Town, even the entire Pingyuan County, how many people are as arrogant as Cao Shujie when it comes to eating meat?
Cao Shujie didn't expect Li Jiagan to ask him this, so he laughed subconsciously.
"Uncle Li, I didn't come here to buy meat from you today," Cao Shujie said.
Before he finished speaking, Li Jiagan called him to the store: "It doesn't matter if you don't buy meat. Let's go inside and have a pot of tea first."
"I'm not going to drink any more tea, Uncle Li. To be honest, I have something important to do with you." Cao Shujie said this.
When Li Jiagan saw Cao Shujie speaking so seriously, he also became serious: "Shujie, if you have anything to do, just tell me directly."
"okay!"
Cao Shujie said: "Uncle Li, our village and the two neighboring villages raised a total of 300 cows last year. Now these cows are less than a month away from being one year old, and they can basically meet the standards for slaughter."
"It's time to sell, and I was the first to think of you. I came here specifically to ask if you still want to accept it."
"If you don't accept it, I'll ask someone else."
Having said this, Cao Shujie paused and looked at Li Jiagan, as if he had been thinking about you from the beginning.
Li Jiagan really didn't expect that Cao Shujie came here because of this incident. For him, this was a good thing. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Are all the 300 cows sold?"
He would definitely not be able to eat it himself, but he still wanted to get it all so that he could add some money and sell it to others.
Beef is in short supply in the market right now, and there are a lot of people rushing to get it.
In addition, it is now September, the temperature has dropped, and more and more people are making hot pot. Taking advantage of this special time period, it has also stimulated a further increase in beef sales.
There are several restaurants and hotpot restaurants in the county. They called him and asked if he had any beef. They bought it in large quantities.
Most small restaurants usually adulterate it with other minced meat to make trouble.
But really old restaurants or large-scale hotels will worry about their reputation and consider the long term, so they really won't do this.
Cao Shujie seemed to see what Li Jiagan was thinking. He nodded and said, "Uncle Li, I won't talk nonsense. If you can eat them all, I won't bother to find a second restaurant."
Hearing what Cao Shujie said, Li Jiagan felt a little excited.
If he gets all 300 cows, he can make a lot of money.
"Shujie, tell me how much I plan to sell this favor to you today." Li Jiagan was also very happy.
300 cows is not a small amount, and he has no intention of arguing with Cao Shujie about money.
Besides, he also knew that Cao Shujie was not that kind of person.
Cao Shujie didn't speak loudly like a lion: "Uncle Li, I won't say anything else. Let's just follow the market price. Do you think it's okay?"
Li Jiagan was very happy. He said loudly: "Okay, let's pay 13 yuan and 60 cents."
The price of 13 yuan and 6 cents is the current market price, no matter how high it is, it won't be much higher.
Of course, the price of cattle with good breed and meat quality will definitely be higher.
Cao Shujie smiled and nodded: "Okay, just 13.6 yuan. When I get back, I will shout on the loudspeaker, Uncle Li, when do you have time to take a look?"
"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. It's not busy today anyway, so let's do it now." Li Jiagan said.
Cao Shujie also didn't expect Li Jiagan's mobility to be so strong. When he saw Li Jiagan shouting into the store: "Xinwu, come out and look at the stall. Your brother Jie and I will go to Caojiazhuang."
"Here you go!" Li Jiagan and his son Li Xinwu came out of the store.
When he saw Cao Shujie, Li Xinwu happily called Brother Jie.
Li Jiagan took off the apron he was wearing and was still thinking about riding a motorcycle. Cao Shujie stopped him directly: "Uncle Li, let's go. Just take my car. Have a drink at my place at noon. I'll find someone to take you there when you're done."
return."
"That's not possible. The recent drunk driving inspections have been very serious. Those two dogs in our town have gone crazy. Sometimes I have to go out to deliver meat in the afternoon, so I don't drink wine." Li Jiagan still insisted on riding his motorcycle to Caojiazhuang.
Cao Shujie had no idea. He drove the car in front and led the way. Li Jiagan followed behind on a motorcycle, and the speed was not slow.
We arrived at Caojiazhuang in less than 20 minutes.
Cao Shujie parked his car in front of his house and took Li Jiagan's motorcycle together to the Caojiazhuang Village Committee compound.
Here, Cao Shujie called Zhuang Xuejian and Zhu Hongwei respectively and discussed with them the sale of cattle.
When Zhu Hongwei and Zhuang Xuejian heard that Cao Shujie had mentioned selling cattle, they did not dare to delay. They quickly put down their work and rushed towards the Caojiazhuang Village Committee on motorcycles and electric vehicles respectively.
During this period, Cao Shujie called Cao Jianlong again and asked him to come over.
After putting down the phone, Cao Shujie took out tea from the filing cabinet and brewed it. The two of them drank tea and chatted, waiting for the three of them to come over.
At this time, Cao Shujie asked him a question in his mind: "Uncle Li, I remember seeing you reading the Tao Te Ching several times. Do you like reading it?"
"No, I was reciting the Tao Te Ching to help those pigs, cattle and sheep that I slaughtered to transcend."
Li Jiagan said: "They will die in my hands in this life. This is their fate. They are destined by God. But if they pass by my hands, I have to chant sutras for them and hope that they will have a good pregnancy in the next life."
"(a_a)" Cao Shujie stared at him on the spot after hearing this.
Good guy, he never thought that Li Jiagan read the Tao Te Ching for this reason, but this has nothing to do with transcendence.
"Uncle Li still believes this?" he asked.
Li Jiagan smiled: "It's not a matter of belief or not. There are always things in this world that cannot be explained by science. Shujie, do you believe what I say?"
Cao Shujie was stunned, he must believe it!
…
Not long after, Cao Jianlong, Zhuang Xuejian, and Zhu Hongwei arrived at the Caojiazhuang Village Committee.
After they gathered together, Cao Shujie introduced Li Jiagan to the three of them.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Xuejian and Cao Jianlong were quite familiar with Li Jiagan.
This makes it easier to talk.
Cao Shujie told the three of them the negotiated price, and all three were satisfied with the price.
After more people raised cattle in the village, they often paid attention to the price of beef cattle in the market. Naturally, they knew that although 13.6 yuan was not the highest price in the market, it was not low either.
Seeing them nodding in agreement, Li Jiagan said: "In this case, I will take time to come over to pull the cattle later in the day. Do you think it's okay?"
Several people had no objections.
In addition, Cao Shujie himself said that he would go on a long trip early next month for almost a week and would not have time to do anything about it. Zhuang Xuejian and Zhu Hongwei expressed their opinions one after another and told the people in the village when they returned.
clear.
"Director Cao, how will the money be settled?" Zhuang Xuejian asked.
Li Jiagan has saved a lot of money over the years of selling meat, but it is really impossible for him to spend the money to buy 300 cows.
Li Jiagan thought about it and said, "Do you think this is okay? I'll pay half first, and I'll settle the remaining half within a month."
Zhuang Xuejian and Zhu Hongwei both looked at Cao Shujie subconsciously, waiting for him to make an idea.
In fact, this is a normal phenomenon during settlement, and some even take several months to pay.
Cao Shujie said: "Uncle Li, what's going on is that our village has recently set up a professional cattle breeding cooperative. After this batch of cattle is sold, these farmers will rely on the money to buy calves as shares, and they will also buy half of them."
There aren’t many calves to catch.”
The Li family didn't know about this at all. After Cao Shujie finished speaking, he asked alone what the situation was like in this cattle cooperative.
After understanding the relationship, Li Jiagan said with a smile: "Shujie, do you still want to buy a large number of calves?"
Cao Shujie nodded, they really wanted to buy it.
But Li Jiagan asked this...
Cao Shujie wondered whether Li Jiagan knew the calf seller?
He really guessed it, and the next moment he heard Li Jiagan say to him: "Shujie, how about this? I happen to know a calf seller. Let me introduce him to you. I will give you a guarantee from him and you can pay first."
I will pay you part of the money after one month of settlement."
When Cao Shujie thought that Cui Jingguo was getting more and more calves, he also felt that he should find another calf-selling farm to prepare for emergencies.
Now that Li Jiagan has taken the initiative to help introduce it, Cao Shujie feels that this deal is a good deal.
