Chapter 91 Arrive in Dongguan
"Scholars will know the world if they don't go out! It is still very beneficial to read more books!
Just like now, although I have never been to Guangzhou like you, I have learned about Guangzhou’s history, customs and folk customs from books, so I will not be so silly at this point.
Previously, I forced the furniture factory to only recruit junior high school graduates as apprentices, hoping that everyone can pay attention to their children’s education!
We don’t require children to take the technical secondary school or college entrance exam, but reading more books can increase their horizons. They may not be able to see it in a short time. Over time, the difference will become more and more obvious!
If you don’t talk about others, just talk about our Zhang family!
I divided three of my great-grandfather and finally my family was the best!
Why? It’s not that my grandfather is biased and has a lot of property to allocate to me, but because my grandfather and my grandfather and others are all reading and literacy!
So the ancestral family that was divided at the beginning was the most prosperous in the end!”
Zhang Junshan curled his lips secretly, "What's the prosperity? In your generation, there is only one seedling left."
Of course, he only dared to think about this in his heart and did not dare to say it out loud.
Otherwise, it would be the lightest to be beaten.
No matter how much I feel, I have to admit that Zhang Junping's words make sense.
"Boss Zhang's words make sense, and reading is still useful. Just like me, if I had read more books, I wouldn't have just made some wood like today!" Fatty Wang smiled and agreed.
He had already seen that among this group of people, Zhang Junping looked the youngest, but he was the one who was the leader among the group.
Although he looked like a rural person who had just entered the city and had never seen the world, Fatty Wang didn't dare to look down on them at all.
I just bought him more than one million yuan in wood, and this business has made him more income in the past year. Businessmen look down on anyone, nor will they look down on money.
"Boss Wang is joking. Your business is not something that ordinary people can do! Not to mention anything else, the more ugly it is, there are few timber factories in China that can get it! This source of goods and transportation channels are not something that ordinary people can solve!" Zhang Junping flattered in an inquiring tone.
"Shame, ashamed! I rely on the blessings of the elders of the family!" Fatty Wang was modest, but couldn't help but show a proud look.
It can be seen that I feel full of pride in my family.
"I dare not say anything else. I can get you whatever you want from the wood of several Southeast countries!" After drinking a few glasses of wine, Fatty Wang's words became more and others couldn't understand it. Only because Zhang Junping understood Cantonese, he continued to communicate with Fatty Wang.
"Then I have a good relationship, Brother Wang, Xiaoye Rosewood, Sea Yellow, Yuhuang, Big Red Rosewood and other woods!
As long as you have it, the price is easy to negotiate!" Zhang Junping quickly promised.
"Okay, please leave a contact information after going back. When I get the wood back, I will contact you!" Fatty Wang said happily.
In the 1980s, the wood from Vietnam and India could not be entered.
When it really comes in, the market is not as big as imagined.
Unlike later generations, it is hard to find a tree.
After all, as the reform and opening up just now, although the Chinese people have some money in their pockets and have begun to pursue a better and more comfortable life, the demand for luxury-grade wood such as mahogany is still very low.
Now some knowledgeable people have begun to collect and buy antique furniture, but due to funding restrictions, the scale of the acquisition is not large.
This is true for ready-made antique mahogany furniture, not to mention mahogany raw materials.
People with insight know that mahogany is a good thing and will definitely increase the price in the future, but they have no money in their pockets.
Now Zhang Junping also feels this way, and he regrets that he only has little money when he is used.
Now I have 8,000 tons of mahogany pieces stored, and I will be the richest man in the future.
Unfortunately, this kind of idea can only be thought about, it is basically impossible.
In a short period of time, Fatty Wang could not have gotten so much wood. It has been 86 years since then, and the mahogany furniture craze is gradually emerging.
The heat source is Xiangjiang on the other side.
In other words, by the time Fatty Wang got so much wood and Zhang Junping also raised enough funds, mahogany furniture began to become popular in the market in Guangzhou.
It was not Zhang Junping's turn to eat alone. Everyone shared hundreds of tons and thousands of tons of mahogany resources a year.
The specific share can be divided into, that is, the Eight Immortals Cross the Sea, each showing their magical powers.
"Brother Zhang, how many can you want my batch of Myanmar rosewood?" Although Fatty Wang drank a lot of wine, he never forgot his purpose.
"Brother Wang, you have to tell me how many of your batch of goods are in total, right? This way I can bid!"
"There are less than 2,000 tons in total, they are all shipped back to Myanmar...!"
Zhang Junping raised a finger and said, "I want it for one hundred yuan per ton!"
"One hundred dollars? Impossible! My shipping fee is not enough!"
"Brother Wang, you just let it go. These woods were pulled back by hand!
Since it is by the way, naturally there is no shipping fee!" Zhang Junping smiled.
"No, no, now a special beech wood costs more than one hundred!" Fatty Wang said loudly like a rattle.
"Brother Wang cannot compare this! The extra-grade beech wood board is more than 100, and you are not a board!
This is a log, nine out of ten sandalwoods are dry, and the scientific name of Burmese rosewood is Daguo Rosewood. How much material can be produced in a log? This is all unknown!
I have to take a lot of risks for each party of 100 yuan!
Otherwise, I will collect it by one thousand!” Zhang Junping was not in a hurry and said slowly.
"You...you add more!"
"I can't add it anymore! Just this price, Brother Wang agrees. I've eaten your batch of Myanmar rosewood. I don't agree. We will cooperate again if we have the opportunity in the future!" Zhang Junping refused firmly.
Fatty Wang stared at Zhang Junping for a while, and finally compromised: "Brother Zhang is so good at bargaining. You don't leave any oil and water for me!
OK! In order to pay your big customer, just follow the price you said!”
"Haha! Brother Wang, the cooperation is pleasant. I hope we can have more opportunities for cooperation in the future!" Zhang Junping raised his glass and smiled.
"Happy cooperation!" Fatty Wang also raised his glass and touched Zhang Junping.
...
"Huzi, there is a furniture factory here? Why do I look like a rural area? The furniture factory you mentioned is the same as us, a village-run collective factory?" Looking at the banana gardens and rice fields outside the car window, Dong Yaozong was very suspicious whether Zhang Junping had found the wrong place.
“It’s not like it looks like it, it’s just the countryside!
But it is not a village-run collective factory, but a Hong Kong-funded enterprise!
It was the furniture factory where the big boss from Xiangjiang came to the mainland to invest!” Zhang Junping explained with a smile.
Purchasing mahogany is just one of the purposes of their trip to Guangzhou. More importantly, let them see how furniture factories produce furniture and manage factories.
