Chapter 252 WPG0251: Peony price rises? Gift! Reciprocity! 234K Subscribe

About half an hour later, An Wuyang drove to the rooftop coffee bar.

An Wuyang brought Xia Yuqing and Lu Manman to the top floor, and Qin Sheng stood up and waved to them.

An Wuyang and the other two walked over. Qin Sheng's eyes showed a slightly confused look. An Wuyang brought two girls over?
What's happening here?
Whether An Wuyang brought Xia Yuqing or Lu Manman, he would not find it strange, but he felt it was a bit strange when he brought both of them together.

After all, it is actually very difficult to get two girls to live in peace.

Especially in the case of a normal relationship like An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing, Qin Sheng thinks it is even more difficult to have both of them.

However, An Wuyang had just sat down and had not yet introduced Lu Manman to Qin Sheng when a crisp voice was heard.

"Mr. An!" The exotic Anna Vodianova also came to the rooftop coffee bar. When she walked towards An Wuyang, the slight shaking of her breasts was quite attractive!

Xia Yuqing and Lu Manman both looked at Anna.

"Anna?" Xu Wenxin beside Qin Sheng looked at Anna in confusion.

Anna also saw Xu Wenxin, and she asked in surprise, "Are you and Mr. An also friends?"

Xu Wenxin pointed at Qin Sheng and said, "My boyfriend and Mr. An are friends."

Anna sat down in a familiar manner, "Since we are all friends, how about we share the table?"

Qin Sheng looked at An Wuyang, meaning to let An Wuyang make the decision.

An Wuyang agreed and said, "No problem."

Originally, the atmosphere between him, Xia Yuqing, and Lu Manman was a little subtle, but now Anna's sudden appearance made Xia Yuqing and Lu Manman feel that they were in unity against the outside world.

So An Wuyang naturally "introduced foreign enemies" without hesitation!
Xu Wenxin took the initiative to ask, "Anna, how did you and Mr. An know each other?"

Anna looked at An Wuyang with a smile.

An Wuyang responded, "The last time I was in the Magic City, I happened to come here to drink coffee and wait for Qingqing to finish school, and then I met Ms. Anna here."

"Ms. Anna seems to know my identity and expressed her desire to cooperate," An Wuyang added.

This addition is crucial!

Because An Wuyang made one thing clear, that is, he did not take the initiative to talk to Anna.

When An Wuyang added this, he also looked at Xia Yuqing in particular, and got a pretty eye roll from her. However, An Wuyang clearly noticed that the corners of Xia Yuqing's mouth were slightly raised, and she was obviously very happy.

"Is this Mr. An's girlfriend?" Anna looked at Xia Yuqing. After all, the two of them were wearing couple outfits and could be seen as a couple at a glance.

An Wuyang nodded, "This is Xia Yuqing, my girlfriend, currently a freshman at the Magic City Drama Academy."

"The other one is my girlfriend's best friend Lu Manman, who is also a freshman at the Shanghai Drama Academy." An Wuyang added.

Anna introduced herself, "Hello, I'm Anna Vodianova from the Magic City Conservatory of Music. I have a quarter of Xia Chinese ancestry, and I speak Xia Chinese very well."

After some introductions, everyone sat at the same table, but the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Qin Sheng exchanged glances with An Wuyang, and he almost understood An Wuyang's situation, so he began to talk about work.

"Mr. An, the specific content of your press conference on Tuesday should not be kept confidential, right?" Qin Sheng asked.

An Wuyang answered affirmatively, "Well, there was no special order to keep it secret. After all, we are going to hold a press conference, so why keep it secret?"

Qin Sheng sighed and said, "No wonder the white peony market is so volatile today, especially in the afternoon, when several major suppliers of medicinal materials all announced that they would suspend the sale of white peony."

"These people are going to stock up on white peony again?" An Wuyang raised his eyebrows.

White peony and forest ginseng are different!
White peony is the rhizome of peony. It has a very high yield and is easy to grow. It can be planted and cultivated on a large scale in batches.

The previous hype about forest ginseng was because it is very difficult to grow forest ginseng.

For real forest ginseng, the survival rate of 10,000 seeds is only 1% during the 12-year planting period, that is, only about 100 forest ginseng plants will survive after 12 years.

This is because real forest ginseng completely simulates the growth environment of wild ginseng in nature, so the survival rate is very low.

In fact, the ginseng currently sold in the market is actually the ginseng grown with artificial intervention, including the ginseng grown at the Tianjingyan medicinal material planting base, which is also the ginseng grown with artificial intervention, rather than the ginseng grown at random.

However, even for ginseng planted under the forest with artificial intervention, the planting cost is still very high. After all, the growth cycle is twelve years, and there are too many unexpected situations in the middle.

The so-called "forest ginseng" sold in the market is most likely garden ginseng. Even if it is forest ginseng grown with artificial intervention, it needs to be carefully selected or have special channels.

The so-called garden ginseng is planted in a medicinal field just like planting radishes. Then, using expanders, the time it takes for ginseng to grow in twelve years is shortened to two or three years. Then, through Hextech technology, it is made into a twelve-year version, thus impersonating forest ginseng.

The wild ginseng sold through online sales channels is most likely this kind of stuff.

After all, among the customers who can purchase forest ginseng that is more than twelve years old through online channels, how many of them can judge the classification of forest ginseng and its specific planting years?

It’s impossible for everyone to be an expert in identifying medicinal materials, right?

But white peony is really different!
For example, in excellent production areas, the yield of white peony can even reach 4000 kilograms per mu, which is comparable to that of white radish.

Even if the planting conditions are slightly poor, the yield per mu of white peony can exceed 1000 kilograms per mu. Can forest ginseng replicate this?
What’s more important is that white peony is produced in a very wide range of areas and can be grown almost from south to north. It’s just a matter of yield.

However, white peony takes four years to mature, which takes more time than white radish.

However, even so, it is not easy to hype up the price of white peony.

In addition, there is a fatal problem in speculating on the price of white peony.

There is no technical threshold for growing white peony. The high price of white peony this year may encourage a large number of people to grow white peony, and then the price of white peony can be pushed down.

"He should be preparing to make some quick money." Qin Sheng responded.

"The output of white peony is too large. If we stockpile 2000 tons and the price of each kilogram of refined white peony only increases by one dollar, we can make an extra million yuan," Qin Sheng added.

"Now that white peony root is related to your Wugengtian, and your Wugengtian is going to hold a press conference on Tuesday, how could these medicinal material suppliers be unwilling to wait three days to see the market conditions?" Qin Sheng asked back.

An Wuyang nodded slightly, "That makes sense!"

"Have you stockpiled goods?" An Wuyang asked back.

"When we acquired the Peony Garden, we also acquired the corresponding inventory. We currently have more than 100,000 tons of fresh white peony in stock, and nearly 30,000 tons of refined inventory." Qin Sheng responded. "We can hand over all these goods to Wugengtian to calm the turmoil in the market." Qin Sheng added.

An Wuyang smiled and said, "Okay!"

"We at Wugengtian will not treat you Tianyin unfairly!" An Wuyang added.

"This time, our demand for white peony medicine at five o'clock in the morning will be huge." An Wuyang added.

Anna answered from the side, "Boss An, Boss Qin, are these topics you are talking about something I can listen to?"

An Wuyang and Qin Sheng looked at each other and laughed together again.

Almost three seconds later, An Wuyang stopped laughing and responded, "If you CLC want to make a layout in the field of white peony, then I can only say that it is too late!"

Qin Sheng seconded, "Yes, the news from Wugengtian has leaked out. White peony has become a new hot spot in the Chinese herbal medicine market. If you CLC want to get involved, it will probably be very difficult."

Anna sighed, "So you guys pulled off another insider trade?"

"There is no such thing as insider trading!" An Wuyang responded.

"Our Wugengtian and their Tianyin are both non-listed companies, so there is naturally no concept of insider trading." An Wuyang distanced himself from the matter.

Qin Sheng seconded, "Boss An is right!"

"Mr. An, if we CLC want to become your Wugengtian's agent in Beixiong Country, what do we need to do?" Anna looked at An Wuyang.

An Wuyang raised his eyebrows, but he did not refuse directly. This time, he planned to promote Shuxin Pills and Shunxin Pills developed based on white peony to the whole world, and Beixiong Country was naturally one of the markets.

"We will hold a press conference at Wugengtian next Tuesday. If your CLC is interested, you can send someone to attend." An Wuyang did not make any promises, but simply instructed the other party to attend the press conference.

"Okay, thank you Mr. An." Anna nodded. She thought to herself, if she could make CLC the agent of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group in Beixiong Country, maybe she could change her destiny?

So being safe and sound is the key!

She thought to herself, if she could change her fate, it wouldn't matter even if she paid a price, right?

Besides, An Wuyang is very handsome!

Xia Yuqing watched from the side as Anna and An Wuyang seemed to be about to reach a cooperation. She was secretly wary of this exotic beauty, especially since she had a big bear cub that she didn't have.

I heard that it has a fatal attraction to men?

Xia Yuqing observed Anna out of the corner of her eye, silently weighing the pros and cons and considering the gains and losses in her mind.

Lu Manman was also thinking in her mind that she did not regard Anna as an enemy, but as an assistant. If there was an external enemy like Anna, she could keep a low profile and perhaps she could achieve her wish!

I have to say, three women make a big show!

Xia Yuqing, Lu Manman, and Anna, the three women have silently outlined the palace fighting drama in their minds.

An Wuyang did not notice the inner thoughts of the three women, and he did not have the so-called mind-reading ability.

Brother Tongzi doesn’t have such a reward!
"Mr. An." Qin Sheng greeted.

An Wuyang looked over.

Qin Sheng took out three brown paper document bags from his briefcase and placed them on the coffee table in front of An Wuyang.

"Thank you for your previous reminder. This is a little gift from me. I hope Mr. An will not refuse it." Qin Sheng explained politely.

An Wuyang had no intention of opening the brown paper document bag. He casually asked, "What is this?"

"Property certificates for a medium-sized peony garden and two small peony gardens." Qin Sheng explained without hiding anything.

"We at Tianyin have already completed the notarization of the power of attorney. Mr. An can take the three documents and transfer the ownership of the three peony gardens to anyone." Qin Sheng added.

"This medium-sized peony garden covers an area of 1500 acres and is located near the suburban area of Beiheyan. The rent has been prepaid for ten years and a fifty-year lease has been signed. The current rent is yuan per acre, and the subsequent price increase should not exceed %." Qin Sheng introduced.

"At present, the peonies in this medium-sized peony garden are in the second year of planting. It is expected that peony seed essential oil can be produced this year, and white peonies will be produced in the fourth year. If the white peonies are sold as fresh goods, the net profit per acre will be about 6,000 yuan." Qin Sheng added.

An Wuyang asked casually, "So the net profit of this medium-sized peony garden can be around 900 million?"

"More than that!" Qin Sheng responded.

"Although we grow medicinal white peony varieties rather than specialized oil-bearing peonies, the yield of peony seeds per acre is at least over 100 kilograms," Qin Sheng added.

"The oil yield of peony seeds is about 20%. This year, the purchase price of each kilogram of peony seed oil at the production site is at least over 100 yuan." Qin Sheng listed the data.

Qin Sheng added, "During the four-year maturity period, the peony seed yield is relatively low in the first year, and more in the third and fourth years. The comprehensive average yield over the four years is about the same as that in the second year."

"Adding the costs of harvesting peony seeds, removing seeds, drying them in the sun, pressing oil and other operations, this year the price of finished peony seed oil is about 35 yuan per kilogram. Based on the calculation that peony seeds are harvested four times during the four-year maturity period, there is still a non-tax profit of nearly million yuan." Qin Sheng checked the information recorded in his mobile phone and explained it to An Wuyang.

(↑ Comprehensive profit of peony seed oil during the four-year maturity period)
"That's equivalent to a 1500-acre peony garden, which means a pre-tax profit of about 1600 to 1700 million in four years, right?" An Wuyang concluded.

Qin Sheng responded affirmatively, "Yes, this profit has already deducted the cost of human resources, fertilizers, peony seedlings, etc., and can make a profit of more than four million every year."

An Wuyang nodded slightly, "The profit margin is not bad!"

Qin Sheng seconded the proposal, "Peony cultivation is not difficult, and the rate of pests and diseases is low. Overall, it is indeed good."

"How big are the other two small peony gardens?" An Wuyang asked.

"One of them has 500 acres, and the other has 300 acres, both of which are located near Beiheyanjiao." Qin Sheng explained.

Qin Sheng added, "The 500-mu peony garden barely makes 150 million yuan in pre-tax profit each year, while the 300-mu one only makes more than 80 yuan."

Qin Sheng added, "But they are all stable. Even if you don't participate in the peony industry, their yields will not be affected."

An Wuyang nodded slightly. He picked up the three brown paper document bags and handed them to Xia Yuqing. "I'll accept this gift!"

Qin Sheng smiled. Last time, An Wuyang advised him to exchange the ginseng garden under the forest for a peony garden. He listened to her advice, so he owed An Wuyang a favor.

Now he gave the three peony gardens to An Wuyang, and An Wuyang accepted this thank-you gift, which meant that Qin Sheng and An Wuyang had a mutual benefit relationship.

This is called: reciprocity!
