Cold chain for 20 years

Chapter 101 Vegetable Jianghu
These days, what happened at night outside the park makes people feel alert.

Every one or two o'clock in the morning, you can hear motorcycles running on the surrounding wasteland, as if the exhaust pipe was deliberately removed, making a rattling or even booming sound.It made people feel uneasy at night, and it was full of provocation.

Yu Dajun was so angry that he drove several times in the middle of the night to catch them, but these people fled away when they saw the light, and turned back after a while, making the entire construction team itch.

Hu Shutong thought about it carefully, and the first night these people appeared was the second day after Tongxing signed a supply agreement with Gannan, Zhengqu, and Donghe farmers' markets.These three farmer’s markets are all being expanded and refurbished, and they are expected to officially open in April next year, which basically coincides with the start of operation of Tongxing Cold Chain.

The farmers market has a rich variety of vegetables and fruits, some of which involve foreign suppliers, and many tasks need to be carried out in advance. Tongxing is responsible for the supply of eleven major categories of vegetables, including cucumbers, beans, potatoes, and spinach. Not to mention that this is a big order among big orders.

Making such a move to Tongxing Park is undoubtedly a warning.

What Hu Shutong was most worried about happened.

As early as this time a year ago, when he was collecting field materials in the five counties north of the city, he noticed a hidden chain.Everyone knows that the vegetables in the farmer's market come from various vegetable vendors. They go deep into the fields to collect vegetables in carts and sell them to the farmers' market to earn the difference.

But in the area of ​​Qingyan, the seemingly independent vegetable vendors are actually working for larger vegetable vendors, who can almost be called vegetable tyrants.The entire Qingning Province has a huge output of vegetables, and what looks like a price difference of a few cents is actually a profiteering industry. Taking Qingyan City as an example, almost every county has a pair of invisible hands that can direct its flow.

A hundred miles north of the five counties in the north of the city is Mozi County, Hu Shutong's hometown. There is also such a problem there, which is why Hu Shutong is so keenly aware of it.The "Boss Bao" that Luan Qizhen was going to sue back then was the big businessman behind the Mozi vegetable merchant.Back then, because of Hu Shutong's attack on the Qu's camp, the entire wholesale market had a tacit understanding in rejecting Hu's vegetables, which is evident in the restraint of the big merchants on the small vegetable merchants.

When he first traveled to the five counties, Hu Shutong found a large number of grass-green transport vehicles. The entire vehicle was covered with green cotton quilts on a metal frame to form a "box".These are the unified vehicles used by the big vegetable merchants. They arrange manpower to scout. Many vegetable merchants actually earn commissions, which are not enough to cover the price difference between farmers and markets.

These big vegetable dealers are actually very hidden. First of all, they have a strong "self-control".In addition, big vegetable vendors all have their own physical stores. Don't look at a humble shop, the energy behind it is amazing.

After so many years, this system has become very mature. Big vegetable vendors have their own set of industry rules and rely on their own strong influence to do things. At the same time, they are also an indispensable link in the connection between farmers and markets.

Influence is also a great skill, and Hu Shutong can make a lot of money by relying on it.But sometimes there will be some outrageous things. The bigger the quantity of vegetables, the more buyers will pick more. There is never a large supply, but a selection of crops, and the amount shipped is always fixed at a constant speed.

As a result, even in the peak season of a category of vegetables, the market price is still high, because although the output has increased, the supply has not increased.So, what about the vegetables that didn't get picked in time?They all want to last until tomorrow's car, but there will be new dishes tomorrow, and only those that are juicy and the right size can be sold for more money, so why bother.

These big vegetable vendors do not have the ability to store goods, but they cannot give up profits, and volume control has become the best choice, thus forming an "invisible balance".

The three major farmers' markets account for [-]% of the supply in Qingyan City, and they are the fat that everyone pays close attention to.Each of the five counties in the north of the city has its own big vegetables, some are rich in leafy vegetables, and some are rich in radishes and potatoes. Tong Xing was offended by the "rain and dew" all of a sudden, and many people's cakes were touched under the undercurrent.

In fact, with the competitiveness of Tongxing at this stage, it is not enough to threaten these big vegetable vendors.In addition to the supply to Qingyan City, there are also supplies from major counties and cities. This is a huge basket, and Hu Shutong originally thought that he could "do his own thing".

With Tongxing's current situation, Hu Shutong never thought of fighting for jobs with these big vegetable vendors, but sometimes, as long as he gets involved in the way, he will either be in the same way or cut him off.

Before everything started, Hu Shutong stood on the opposite side of a big camp.

But this also reminded Hu Shutong that it is better to be caught off guard today than to be caught off guard in the future. The three major farmers’ markets are Tongxing’s first step. The difference cannot be explained to anyone.

He had to make sure that the vegetables would come when the market opened. If he couldn't do that, no explanation would help.Therefore, the problem of harvesting vegetables is not a problem in a few months, but a problem that has to be solved now.

Three days later, Hu Shutong pretended to aim at the addresses of several front-end field assembly warehouses, and threw some cheap boards there.Sure enough, after one night, those boards were either stolen or smashed beyond use.

From this, Hu Shutong was completely sure that there was a wave of people who took themselves seriously and came and went with motorcycles outside the park. A thorn in the flesh!

Yu Dajun was deeply worried about Hu Shutong. If he really wanted to throw up his posture, he would not be afraid of anyone. What he was afraid of was this small matter. There is no place to explain it, and no one is willing to listen to you.Rationally speaking, people can never defeat the mechanism, let alone something that has been glued together for many years.

He advised Hu Shutong not to think about vegetables for the time being. There is no need to confront those people head-on at this time. There are fish in Panzhu in the early stage, and it will not be a problem to survive for a while.

But for Hu Shutong, the first mile is the original intention of Tongxing Cold Chain, and surrounding the food basket is Tongxing's inherent mission.What's more, the big orders in the three major farmers' markets are hard-won. If this opportunity is missed, Tongxing, who has lost power, will spend a thousand times more effort, and it may not be able to win the trust here.

On the surface, Hu Shu agreed with these words.

But in fact, Yu Dajun felt that the man in front of him had prepared his sword and gun, as if he was about to go to the battlefield!

……

Hu Shutong was right in guessing that the big vegetable vendors didn't pay much attention to him for so many years.

Not only did he startle the big vegetable vendors in the five counties all at once, he even found out about where they came from and what happened in the past.

These people are well-informed and have many means, and they know how to "prevent the passing of time". They know that the land in Hu Shutong is specially approved, and its future functions and influences are immeasurable.If you can't strangle his throat at the beginning, punching and kicking will be inevitable in the future.The scale of that cold storage also makes people shudder, that kind of food intake will sooner or later become Qingyan's "big vegetable air conditioner".

In a vegetable supplier's store, the rolling gate was only half a meter above the ground, and four people played cards boredly, waiting for the famous "Dragon Master".

Not long after, a man with a fierce look and wearing a green coat came in. This dragon master was far from being old enough, but he was indeed the most senior.Their old Li family has been in this business for more than 30 years, and the people who talk about it are all called Long Ye, and they only look like they are in their 30s.However, these dragon masters don't have a lot of influence on the big management, and they don't like to show their faces unless they have to. Once they show up, seven or eight out of ten are their own melons who are challenged.

Looking at the crowd, Master Long's eyebrows became tighter. After entering, he only said one sentence——

"Only this Hu, can let him receive a vegetable, blow the lamp and pull the wax to roll the felt, everyone go away!"
