Chapter 165: Buying Pigs Exposed? Cooperation
Chapter 165: Buying Pigs Exposed? Cooperation
Li Kailang was very happy holding these 200 bullets.
"After buying so many bullets, I'm finally not so tight on money. I'll see if I can get other guns from Lao Zhang later."
"I definitely need a rifle, but I don't know if I can get other firearms. A sniper rifle would be great, too. A mortar would be fine too."
Li Kailang was wishful thinking, but which man could resist the charm of firepower equipment?
When you are out and about and are in doubt, use firepower to cover you.
Hoarding gold and antiques is not as fun as hoarding weapons.
"Oh, and there are bulletproof vests that you can get. Even though your body has been modified, it can't stop the power of bullets."
Li Kailang looked at his tight and hard body and patted it, making a popping sound. It could block bare hands and cold weapons, but it couldn't block bullets.
Li Kailang walked towards the courtyard cautiously.
The next day, Li Kailang went to work.
Today is also a day with few tasks, and Li Kailang only has one task.
On the way back, Li Kailang stopped by Wangjia Village.
It has been almost a week since the incident between Wang Changjun and Tan Hua, and things have gradually calmed down.
Li Kailang planned to go to Wangjia Village to buy a pig, and now he was going to explore the route and see the situation.
When Village Chief Wang saw Li Kailang's truck, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Master Li, why are you here?"
"Village Chief Wang, how are you? How is the village doing these days?"
Hearing this, Village Chief Wang sighed, "Don't mention it. Ever since the incident with Wang Caigou, the police have been coming to our village to investigate every few days."
"It has caused unrest in our village. We are afraid that something might happen."
"That's true." Li Kailang didn't know how to comfort Village Chief Wang.
Soon, Village Chief Wang changed his mood and smiled: "By the way, what is Master Li planning to do this time?"
Li Kailang got straight to the point: "I'm not here for anything else this time. I wonder how the pigs in the village are doing. Can you sell me some?"
Village Chief Wang quickly agreed: "Of course, the policeman who came last time only bought two pigs in the village, and there are more than 20 left in the village."
It has been almost half a month, and the last time the police brought by Wang Changjun came here, they purchased two heads, and there has been no more income since then.
It’s not that Village Chief Wang didn’t find anyone to purchase the goods. When they heard that there were extra pigs here, they were all very excited.
But when they arrived, they happened to run into the police investigating a case. When they realized there was a case here, they all fled in panic.
Pigs are good, but they only have one life.
"Okay, Village Chief Wang, I'll buy two this time and you can slaughter one first." Li Kailang ordered.
"Master Li, won't you order a few more? There are still a lot of pigs, don't be polite!" Village Chief Wang advised.
Li Kailang refused: "No, there is no conclusion yet, let's do it little by little. This time I will purchase two ends first. If there is no movement after a while, I will purchase more then.
Two pigs are not many, you can get away with it by finding an excuse.
Once the hype has really passed, it won’t be too late to make large purchases.
Hearing this, Village Chief Wang stopped forcing her, "Okay, I'll get it for you first!"
"Thank you for your help, Village Chief Wang!" Li Kailang thanked.
Village Chief Wang turned and went to the pigpen.
At the same time, a figure riding a bicycle came to the outside of Wangjia Village.
"It should be here, right?"
The man got off the car and looked around. He did not see the iconic monument, but only saw villagers working in the fields in the distance.
He walked towards the villager, shouting as he walked:
"Comrade! Comrade!"
The sound attracted Wang Mazi's attention. He stood with his body hunched and saw someone shouting and walking towards him not far away.
"Comrade, is there anything wrong?" Wang Mazi shouted.
Hearing the reply, the man's face lit up with joy and he immediately came to Wang Mazi.
"Hello, comrade! Is this Wangjia Village?"
Wang Mazi nodded and looked at him warily.
"Oh, don't worry, I'm not a bad person, I'm a buyer, and I'm here to purchase." The man said immediately.
When Wang Mazi heard about purchasing, his face lit up with joy. He put down the hoe in his hand, walked quickly to the man and stretched out his hands.
"Hello, buyer!"
The man looked at his muddy hands, a hint of disgust flashed across his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He shook hands with Wang Mazi with a smile on his face, his hands no longer dirty.
"Hello!"
Wang Mazi continued, "Comrade purchaser, we have finally got you here. I wonder if you would like to purchase some live pigs. We still have plenty in our village."
"Really? How many pigs are there? Can I take a look?" The man's face was filled with shock, as if rain had finally fallen after a long drought.
Wang Mazi looked at the man's shocked expression. How come he was even more shocked than himself?
I was confused at first, but it was a good thing that I could purchase the live pigs.
Wang Mazi affirmed: "Really! It couldn't be more true. I wonder how many live pigs the buyers can buy?"
The man also affirmed: "Of course the more the better. Could you please take me to have a look?"
"Okay, okay! Let's go now!" Wang Mazi grabbed the man's wrist and took him away.
"No need, I have a car, you can get in my car, it will be faster!" the man ordered.
"Yes, yes, yes! Let's take your car!" Wang Mazi took a step and sat in the back seat.
The man also rode his bicycle towards Wangjia Village. Wang Mazi grabbed both sides of the man's clothes.
He looked down at his clothes covered in mud, but he didn't care, "Hold on tight!"
Wang Mazi explained: "Comrade buyer, you came just in time. Our village is in a hurry to sell those pigs."
“But they haven’t been sold yet. Someone came before and only sold two,” said Wang Mazi.
"I don't know why?" the man asked.
"It's nothing, it's just that something happened in our village recently, so it's hard to sell." Wang Mazi didn't explain too much.
Wang Mazi changed the subject: "Comrade buyer, there are more than 20 pigs in our village. I wonder how many you can buy?"
"What? How many heads?" the man asked uncertainly, thinking there was something wrong with his ears.
Wang Mazi thought it was because of the strong wind and didn't hear clearly: "I said, there are more than 20 live pigs in our village."
"Okay, okay, okay!" the man said with a smile.
"God will not let down those who work hard!" the man said in his heart. If Wang Mazi hadn't been there, he would have cried out to the sky.
The legs riding the bicycle work harder.
Following Wang Mazi's instructions, he rode all the way out of the pigpen.
I saw several people outside the pigpen, cutting open a pig and dissecting it.
"Village chief, look who I brought here?" Wang Mazi said excitedly.
Several people heard the noise and turned to look.
"Chief Sun." Li Kailang shouted.
The person who came was Sun Yongkai.
Ever since Zong Changyi spread the false news, all the buyers in the third purchasing department were like chicken blood, and they went out to purchase live pigs one by one.
Within a few days, five live pigs entered the factory.
This made Sun Yongkai feel a crisis, but no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't purchase a pig.
Sun Yongkai's route is the best, and the village is rich in resources, but because of this, they are even more disdainful of small profits and benefits.
Their own village also has the ability to sell to the city, and Sun Yongkai had previously assigned the purchasing route to Wang Changjun.
The villages along that route did not have a good impression of the buyers, and for various reasons, Sun Yongkai was unable to make any purchases.
When he was at his wit's end, Sun Yongkai remembered that Wang Changjun had purchased a pig before. After thinking for a long time, he realized that it was Wangjia Village, so he came here.
After riding the bicycle for more than two hours, Sun Yongkai's buttocks felt almost sore, and his legs were shaking and trembling.
He hasn't been to the countryside for a long time. Since he became the section chief, he has never been there again.
When he came to Wangjia Village this time and heard Wang Mazi say that there were many pigs in the village, how could Sun Yongkai not be excited and shocked.
Sun Yongkai looked at Li Kailang and asked in confusion: "Master Li, why are you here too?"
Li Kailang replied: "Nothing, I wonder what Chief Sun is doing?"
Although he didn't know why Sun Yongkai came here, Li Kailang naturally couldn't say that he was here to purchase live pigs.
This was the first time that Li Kailang saw Sun Yongkai, who was covered in mud. In the past, he always appeared in a bright and handsome appearance.
"Nothing, the factory is in full production right now and they're short of meat."
"As a member of the purchasing department, I should set an example by taking the lead and purchasing live pigs for everyone."
Sun Yongkai was not aware that Li Kailang knew that he was not the head of purchasing department, but he still had to save face in front of outsiders.
The main reason was that Wang Mazi said he had more than 20 pigs and had the title of section chief, so he could scare the people in the village and get better purchases.
But he didn't know that he had inadvertently lowered his status. Before, he called Li Kailang "Xiao Li".
But now he was called Master Li, but Li Kailang didn't pay attention.
Sun Yongkai asked back: "What is Master Li doing here?"
He didn't want Li Kailang to interfere with his work here.
Li Kailang explained: "Oh, nothing. I just saw someone slaughtering a pig. I haven't seen it before, so I came over to take a look!" Sun Yongkai naturally didn't believe such a lame excuse, but he didn't expose it.
Sun Yongkai agreed: "That's true. In the city, pork is sold pre-slaughtered. I've never seen it before, so I came to take a look."
The two watched as the pig was dissected bit by bit.
Village chief Wang, who was standing by, didn't pay any attention to the two of them and pulled Wang Mazi aside to ask about the matter.
Wang Mazi then explained it clearly.
Hearing that Sun Yongkai was a buyer and also the head of the purchasing section, perhaps the steel mill could eat these pigs.
"Okay, I get it. You did a good job. You'll be rewarded later. Go get busy now."
Village chief Wang sent Wang Mazi away.
Looking at the two people staring at the pigs, he didn't say anything, but was thinking about something.
"Maybe, this is how it can be done." Village Chief Wang muttered to himself as he looked at Li Kailang's back.
Village Chief Wang coughed twice and said with a smile, "You two, the pigs have been slaughtered. They look plump and delicious. Do you plan to buy some?"
As Village Chief Wang spoke, he looked at Sun Yongkai and signaled the butchers with his eyes, asking them to leave temporarily.
Suddenly, there were only three people left at the scene.
Sun Yongkai looked at Village Chief Wang in front of him and said with a smile:
"Of course, Village Chief Wang, our steel mill needs a lot of pork. I wonder how many pigs you can sell?"
Village chief Wang explained: "I have more than 20 of them. We don't want to keep too many. Five or six will be enough."
Because of Li Kailang's suggestion to stockpile grain, Village Chief Wang does not plan to raise too many pigs. Just five or six will be enough, which will also reduce the burden of raising pigs.
The remaining fifteen or sixteen pigs can all be sold.
"So many!" Sun Yongkai didn't expect that Village Chief Wang would dare to buy so much.
He originally thought that it would be good if he could purchase two or three heads, after all, he was purchasing them at the steel mill's purchase price.
It is not as much as private sales, but the source is reasonable and the funds are safe.
Sun Yongkai thought about it for a while, then asked, "Village Chief Wang, if I can represent the steel mill, I want to eat 15 pigs. Is that okay?"
Village Chief Wang shook his head and said, "If Section Chief Sun represents the steel mill, then I can only give you 5. As for the rest."
Village Chief Wang looked at Li Kailang.
When Sun Yongkai saw this, the meaning was self-evident and he immediately understood.
"Master Li, we are all acquaintances. These pigs are very important to me. I wonder if you can let me buy more?"
"Of course, with so many live pigs, I won't make it difficult for Master Li to do his job. I will definitely give him the compensation he deserves. I wonder if you can give them up?"
Sun Yongkai didn't believe that Li Kailang could eat so many pigs, but now it was no longer a matter of belief or not.
With these 15 pigs, it is a foregone conclusion that he will be reinstated as section chief. Although the disciplinary action cannot be eliminated, it is no longer important.
Let’s get the position of section chief back first!
Li Kailang was also thinking. If Sun Yongkai hadn't existed, he would have been able to eat 15 pigs. It was just a matter of time.
But once Sun Yongkai arrives, he will definitely get a piece of the pie.
If he wanted to take it all, Sun Yongkai would definitely report it, and this matter could not be avoided no matter what.
In addition, Sun Yongkai was purchasing in the name of the steel rolling mill, and the transaction was safe, so Li Kailang planned to take advantage of this.
This way you can purchase safely without having to worry about the follow-up.
But this also means that Li Kailang needs to make concessions, and it is impossible to give everything to Sun Yongkai.
Li Kailang thought for a moment and said:
"Chief Sun, I understand your difficulties, but these pigs are also very important to me."
"You know, I'm the driver, and we have quite a few people in the transport team. If I give you all these 15 pigs, what will our transport team think?"
"Of course, I understand you. After all, you are purchasing for the factory. I can let you take the lion's share. You can take 10 heads."
"Everyone can accept this, but I have a small request." Li Kailang hesitated to speak.
Li Kailang calculated the number of these 10 pigs and decided that he couldn't take all 10 of them, so he could only take a small portion.
Secondly, selling such a large batch of live pigs privately would cause trouble. For safety reasons, Village Chief Wang would definitely not smuggle all of them.
Although there were 10 fewer pigs, for Li Kailang, he wanted the pigs only as reserves and was not in a hurry to eat them.
When Sun Yongkai heard this, he was secretly delighted.
He originally thought that it would take some effort to convince Li Kailang to make concessions, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to make such a suggestion.
Ten pigs was a good number for him, so he asked hurriedly:
"Master Li, please let me know if you have any requests."
Li Kailang paused and said, "After all, I am purchasing for the transport team, but I am not a buyer. Do you think it is possible for me to have my name on the purchasing list?"
"Of course, if it's not impossible, then forget it. Anyway, there are so many people in the transport team, and everyone has a little money."
There was a hint of threat in Li Kailang's last words.
"Of course!" Sun Yongkai replied immediately.
In order to get the position of section chief, this threat was nothing. He was also afraid that the transport team would eat these pigs.
It was not a difficult task for him to just do it under the name of procurement.
Li Kailang decided, "Okay, then it's a deal. You take 10 and I take 5."
Sun Yongkai affirmed: "It's settled!"
Village chief Wang watched the two people talking to each other and directly sold 15 pigs. He was secretly happy in his heart.
The saved pig feed can be used to fatten the remaining pigs.
"Village Chief Wang, we have already discussed it. Do you have anything else to say?" Sun Yongkai asked.
Village Chief Wang smiled and said, "Nothing, you have made the decision, so naturally everyone is happy. What can I say?"
"I don't know when you will need it. Should I prepare it immediately?"
Sun Yongkai directly ordered: "Let's do it now. The sooner we can finish it, the sooner we can finish it."
Li Kailang nodded in agreement.
Then there is the issue of payment.
Village Chief Wang said, "Okay, then how do we pay for this?"
Sun Yongkai said first: "Of course it's through a bank account. Such a large amount must be a public-to-public transfer!"
Hearing this, Village Chief Wang shook his head and said, "Chief Sun, this is not fair. You are using the public account to buy all these pigs. I can only give you 5."
Sun Yongkai got anxious when he heard this: "Village Chief Wang, what do you mean? That's not what you said at the beginning."
Village Chief Wang smiled and said, "Chief Sun, you won't let all these pigs go into the public account, right? Then I will lose a lot of money, right?"
Sun Yongkai asked back, "Then what did you mean at the beginning? You made me think you were taking the pig from Master Li."
Village Chief Wang explained: "It's not just about taking the pigs, but also negotiating the price. If I use the public account, then I can just give all the pigs to Master Li. Then I can make more money."
"Don't you think so, Master Li?" Village Chief Wang looked at Li Kailang.
Sun Yongkai gritted his teeth. The initiative of the matter was in the hands of Village Chief Wang, and he had no way to do anything.
So he nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll use half of it for official accounts and sell the other half as smuggled goods!"
Hearing this, Li Kailang also knew that he had been tricked by Village Chief Wang.
"What about me? How should I pay?" Li Kailang asked.
Village Chief Wang responded with a smile: "Master Li, given our relationship, there is no need to explain. It must be smuggling."
After hearing this, Li Kailang shook his head decisively, "That won't work!"
Village Chief Wang looked at him in surprise, and Li Kailang explained:
"I have already agreed with Section Chief Sun that I will use his name to purchase. If all the goods are smuggled, I will lose money!"
Li Kailang took part in the purchasing, not only for safety reasons, but also to save money.
Since Village Chief Wang was not sincere and was taking advantage of him, Li Kailang could not do it the same way as before.
"If Village Chief Wang doesn't agree, then I won't take it anymore and give it all to Section Chief Sun!"
This sentence made Village Chief Wang feel pressured and also surprised Sun Yongkai.
In this way, the initiative is completely in the hands of Sun Yongkai. He can decide how many pigs to buy and how to settle the accounts.
How could Village Chief Wang agree to this?
Village Chief Wang chuckled and said, "Master Li, I was just joking, don't take it seriously!"
"Well, including this pig, Master Li can have half and half." Village Chief Wang pointed at the slaughtered pig.
"Village Chief Wang, you are so generous!" Li Kailang said indifferently.
These 15 pigs weigh less than 40 kilograms, and the purchase price is yuan per pig.
The private sale is 80 yuan.
Li Kailang handed 360 yuan to Village Chief Wang. As for Sun Yongkai, he issued a certificate. After the financial department of the steel rolling mill checked it, they would go back to the bank to deposit the money.
Li Kailang ordered: "Okay, first put all five of us on the car, pack the slaughtered animals in the bag and put it in the front. I will take them away."
Village Chief Wang nodded and called loudly for several people to come and help.
"Chief Sun, I have my own arrangements for these. Please wait for me for half an hour. I will come to help you transport them to the factory after I have finished them."
"Okay, Master Li, you go ahead and do your thing first." Sun Yongkai agreed readily.
Li Kailang carried five pigs to a remote place and put them all in a growing space to keep the piglets company.
After wandering outside for about half an hour, he returned to Wangjia Village to help Sun Yongkai transport his 10 pigs to the steel rolling mill.
At this point, the purchase of pigs, which had been delayed for a long time, was finally completed.
