As soon as the radio wave rang, Xu Renjie had already concluded that the call was from Liu Fugui.
Facts also proved that his judgment was very correct, because the call did come from Liu Fugui.
As expected, there was an exchange of pleasantries, and nothing happened anyway. Xu Renjie just patiently walked through the established procedures with the old fox.
Liu Fugui then asked about Tang Xiaoquan's situation in quite detail, asking everything from the latter's current mental state to whether Lao Xu had sent someone to the JZ County shelter to investigate.
In this regard, Xu Renjie did not take any precautions and told the truth frankly.
Forget it, Liu Fugui got back to business and got down to the substantive content. To put it bluntly, he was here to talk about so-called "cooperation."
"Haha, Lao Xu, when we said goodbye to each other at the factory last time, I believe you still remember what we said about "cooperating."
"Well, of course I remember. Why does Mr. Liu have any needs?"
"Oh haha," Liu Fugui smiled heartily and replied with praise: "As expected of a soldier, Captain Xu really knows what's going on. That's right, this is the main thing I want to talk about in this call."
The corners of his lips curved slightly, and Xu Renjie, who had long been accustomed to the tricks of the old fox, said calmly: "Tell me, what do you need?"
"Well, two things, one is fuel and the other is medicine."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Xu Renjie couldn't help but wrinkle his forehead: "What, looks like Mr. Liu is planning to go out?"
Undoubtedly, with Liu Fugui's wealth and character, Xu Renjie knew that the latter would never die in a small factory.
Therefore, it is no surprise that if the other party seeks to trade the above two things, most likely they intend to go out.
But the answer given by Liu Fugui was completely different from Xu Renjie's analysis.
"Oh haha," Liu Fugui chuckled as usual, and then replied unhurriedly: "Captain Xu, to tell you the truth, I really have plans to go out now, but you saw it last time, and my people were The beasts have been surrounded in the factory for more than four months. Seeing such beasts showing their teeth and claws every day, Zhihou Zhentian has long been frightened and has no ability to go out. Otherwise, why should I make a deal with you? ? Isn’t that just one move many times? I want fuel. To put it bluntly, I want to make some reserves for the factory’s generator. The continuous consumption in the past few months has almost exhausted my savings. As for the convenience of medicine, let alone it. Many workers in the factory are suffering from serious illnesses, and I myself have serious stomach problems due to lack of medicines."
Liu Fugui's words were quite candid, and Xu Renjie did not ask any further questions after hearing this.
However, now that the reason is known, Xu Renjie is not only stupid enough to give up his rights out of "sympathy".
As the saying goes, a shopping mall is like a battlefield, and he knew Liu Fugui's abilities very well.
Maybe the opponent is not as good as him on the battlefield, but when it comes to business wars, Xu Renjie believes that Liu Fugui can definitely be called a traitor.
So he didn't dare to be careless. After echoing twice, he said calmly: "Well, Mr. Liu, I already understand what you want. What about remuneration? What are you going to give me?"
"Okay!" He affirmatively gave a thumbs up: "I like people who go straight to the point. What I mean is this. I have food reserves here. I plan to exchange them with you on the basis of 1 liter of oil and 3 kilograms of supplies. , how about exchanging medicines on a case-by-case basis based on their value?”
Slightly startled, Xu Renjie did not expect that Liu Fugui would detail the terms of exchange in such detail, but Xu Renjie also had his own plans.
"Ah," there was a sigh first, and then Xu Renjie replied in an awkward tone: "To be honest, I, a soldier, don't like bargaining with others, but there are a few things I have to say. I hope Mr. Liu won't take offense."
"Haha, no, no, I told you, Lao Xu, the first time we met, that I, Liu Fugui, behave as a public person and as a private person. If we cover up all the public issues, how can we be friends in private?"
"Okay, since Mr. Liu said so, I will speak frankly." Following the words, Xu Renjie said straight to the point: "As we all know, in this apocalyptic world, two things are the most valuable. One is food and water; the other is fuel supplies. ;According to common sense, you provide food supplies, and I take fuel supplies. It is reasonable to exchange with each other. But Mr. Liu, frankly speaking, since we have taken the risk to get oil, we can definitely raise supplies along the way. So the ratio of 1 for 3 is for us , it’s really not very attractive. At least it’s not proportional to the risks we pay.”
"Well, that makes sense. I didn't think it through properly. What does Captain Xu mean?" As expected of a veteran who has been in the business for a long time, he agreed to the harsh conditions put forward by Xu Renjie without even thinking about it.
"1 liter of fuel exchanges 10 pounds of supplies." No matter how good Liu Fugui is, Xu Renjie's response is very simple, which is to deal with him according to his psychological low price. If it is higher, he can accept it, but if it is lower, he will never agree.
This is a principle that he must uphold, because he knows very well that this transaction can maximize the benefits.
And once he misses this time, Liu Fugui, who has oil in the future, can organize his own manpower to go out to collect supplies.
At that time, all the escort efforts and the fuel consumed during it will be in vain.
"1 liter and 8 pounds!"
"Not 10 pounds!"
After some competition, Xu Renjie, who adhered to his principles, finally won, and Liu Fugui finally agreed to exchange 10 kilograms of food supplies for 1 liter of oil.
After talking about this, Lao Xu made another request: "Mr. Liu, I also want to exchange some live birds with you!"
"Live birds?"
"Yes!" Since the last time he drank chicken soup, Xu Renjie has been thinking about getting some live birds for the station.
Therefore, when discussing this issue, Xu Renjie did not ask the other party if he had any live birds, but directly made a request for exchange.
However, to Xu Renjie's surprise, Liu Fugui did not hide anything and said frankly: "No problem, I have poultry, but how precious this thing is, I believe Captain Xu should also understand. No nonsense, 30 liters of oil Chicken, and only one."
"Okay! But I want the hen!"
"Hahaha, that's not possible with Company Commander Xu. If you want hens, you need 60 liters of oil."
"Okay! 60 liters is 60 liters!" Xu Renjie agreed since he couldn't bear to let the child catch the wolf.
Later, the children discussed the exchange of drugs and decided to let their respective knowledgeable medical staff "clearly mark the prices" of the major categories of drugs.
That’s all, this transaction conversation was terminated.
Huang Yong slowly placed the handpiece on the table. Huang Yong, who had already made a decision, immediately poured some hot water into the tea cup in front of Liu Fugui. At the same time, he asked in a low voice: "Mr. Liu, is the price we gave for this transaction too high?" Already?"
Lifting his eyelids and glancing at Huang Yong, Liu Fugui smiled calmly: "Yes, the price is indeed a bit high! This Xu Renjie is a man! How can someone who has achieved great things care about such a small profit? By the way, He Lei's side When are you ready to leave?" (To be continued.)
