Chapter 48 Oranges for Coal Tickets



This is indeed the case. Everyone wants to try something new, but the price is too expensive.

Even if most miners in the mining area are treated well, oranges that cost the same as meat still make people feel distressed.

"If you don't have money, you can use things at home. I heard that you have a lot of woolen gloves. A pair is a dime, and a new mask is five cents a piece. How about you?" Lin Yun thought about it and God gave him a small one. suggestion.

When workers work, their workplace will distribute masks and gloves. The price is definitely not at this price on the market, but the replacement is definitely not worth much.

Everyone is looking for unused gloves and masks at home to save a dime.

"Can I exchange my coal stamps for oranges with you?" someone asked.

It takes two hundred pairs of gloves to exchange for a basket of oranges. Most people have some new gloves and masks at home, but not that many.

As someone who lives in a mining area, basically every household has coal coupons as a welfare unit. Most families have coal coupons in their hands, but they cannot burn so much coal.

Lin Yun hesitated slightly, as if he was thinking, "How to change?"

The man said: "I will exchange a coal ticket for your basket of oranges."

Lin Yun, who came from the countryside, didn't understand and asked, "How much coal can one coal ticket exchange for?"

The man said: "One thousand kilograms is two thousand kilograms."

Twenty pounds of oranges for two thousand pounds of coal? Zhao Lei thinks it's a great deal. The coal supply of each unit is limited, especially the coal distributed to employees. If there is less, he has to buy it himself. He still has a certain understanding of the coal price, and this price is not a loss.

It’s even more cost-effective than what they sell for one pound and a half.

Lin Yun didn't agree immediately, obviously he was confused.

The man was a little anxious. There were miners or family members around him. They all wanted to eat oranges but didn’t want to spend so much money. Who didn’t have some scattered coal stamps? They all hoped that Lin Yun would agree.

Lin Yun asked in embarrassment: "How much coal can my family burn in one winter? Where can I get so many coal stamps?"

Someone in the crowd shouted: "I will exchange three coal tickets for you two baskets of oranges."

Lin Yun... Then you are really a good person.

"Young man, it's definitely a good deal for you to exchange three coal stamps for two baskets of oranges, so let's settle it." The security guard guarding the door also wanted to exchange coal stamps for oranges, so he advised.

A few years ago, there were still people collecting coal stamps, but after the authorities caught a group of resellers, no one stopped. There was so much coal stamps to use, and neighbors like me couldn’t sell them, so it was too affordable to exchange them for oranges.

Lin Yun still looked embarrassed, "I went to the countryside to sell oranges to make everyone eat fresh, and I also earned some money for the New Year. I don't know if this is cost-effective, but the coal ticket is the coal ticket, and the coal is coal. You guys You gave me this coal ticket, can I just take the coal away?"

The person in the mining area said: "Of course you can. You just need to collect them and wait until next spring to arrange the numbers. Then you can pull them out."

Lin Yun immediately refused, "It won't work if I have to queue up. I borrowed a lot of the money for the oranges and I have to pay them back before the Chinese New Year. I can't wait at the door with this thing every day, right?"

If he is honest and has an honest face, the miners in the mining area are anxious for him and cannot treat this young man badly just for their own benefit.

"If I could haul coal today, would you like it, little brother?"

Lin Yundao: "Of course I want to."

Someone volunteered to ask if they could have someone pull the coal directly. At the moment, everyone was almost on vacation, and no one was pulling coal out. However, the dormitory was not far from the work unit, and soon someone came back after asking about the letter.

"Little brother, as long as you find someone, you can exchange the coal stamps for him and take him away today!" The man shouted excitedly from a distance.

Everyone also thought that things would work out, and they all wanted to exchange coal stamps for oranges.

Two coal stamps were exchanged for one basket, three coal stamps were exchanged for two baskets, and there were things that could not be used. Everyone exchanged three coal stamps for two baskets, and some exchanged four or six baskets, but no one exchanged them. Odd number.

"With so many coal stamps, can you sell them?" People said they were waiting in line, and Zhao Lei was worried. People said they would wait in line today, and Zhao Lei was also worried.

No matter how good the deal is, there must be a buyer, otherwise where will they take the coal today?

Today they brought in 1,400 baskets of oranges. Except for the ones in the front that were sold in bulk and the masks that were used, if all the oranges in the back were replaced with coal stamps, there would be more than 2,000 coal stamps and more than 400 tons of coal. Where would they go? Sell?

"Don't worry, it's fine as long as Zhao Ming and I are here. Drive and follow Ershan first." Lin Yun said confidently. He had confidence in his sister.

After confirming that he could pull coal, Lin Ershan asked Zhao Lei to drive one of the trucks away.

When they came just now, they unloaded a truck of goods on the spot. Now they were sure that they could haul coal, and they just left with the empty truck.

"Are we leaving now?" Zhao Lei also heard Lin Jing talk about today's plan yesterday, but it felt too unreal.

It’s almost the Chinese New Year, and people everywhere are asking for payment of wages. Who will spend money to buy coal?

Four hundred tons of coal is not a small amount. Who can eat so much coal?

Lin Ershan asked him to drive to another town and find a brick and tile factory.

At this time, there are more people making money, and there are more people who want to build brick houses.

Nowadays, many more people are opening brick kilns privately, but the supply of red bricks still exceeds the demand. Many people cannot even buy bricks without connections.

Zhao Lei thought that Lin Ershan wanted to buy bricks because he wanted to make money, but it turned out that he wanted to sell coal.

"You mean you can pull coal today?" This time is not suitable for kiln burning, but which small brick kiln is not short of coal nowadays?

Although there is money to be made, many businesses are afraid to take orders. This is because there is not enough coal, and privately owned brick kilns are generally under-operated.

Lin Ershan said: "Brother, we are destined to be together. How can I cheat you on such a thing? Today is not tomorrow and I am afraid of long nights and dreams. What good will it do me to lie to you?"

The brick kiln owner gave away countless cartons of cigarettes to buy some coal. He still didn't buy enough coal. He didn't expect that one day someone would come to his door and ask him if he wanted it? Happiness comes a bit suddenly.

"What's your price?"

"The fixed price is 500 yuan per ton, at least 400 tons. You can take someone to pick up the goods today, and the goods will be settled immediately." Lin Ershan finished his conditions in one breath.

The brick kiln owner said it was too expensive, "The market price is only 300 per ton."

Lin Ershan chuckled and took a long drag on his cigarette, "Brother, I came to you because I was in a hurry to ship goods. Didn't I say, has your brick and tile factory ever bought coal for 500 yuan a ton?"

The market price is very high, and if they can't get it, they can only buy expensive ones. Sometimes they can't even get the goods for 7,800 to 810 tons.

"I'm in a hurry to get the goods at the lowest price. If you don't succeed, I'll find another one." Lin Ershan said that he didn't have time to talk nonsense.

Why is the shipment urgent? If the shipment is urgent, shouldn't we talk about it quickly? There is no room for bargaining at all.

"Then, 600 yuan per ton, you can bargain." Lin Ershan said lazily.

The brick kiln owner made up his mind, "Okay, 500 yuan per ton, I'll give you as much as you have. I'll pay you when I see the coal."
