Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

Chapter 325 The transaction continues

As Zhao Cheng got what he wanted, the transaction between Zhao Cheng and Zhou Zhigang's friends will continue.

"Brother Wang, how much can we offer for exchange now?" Zhao Cheng packed his belongings in a big bag and put them on the truck he was riding in.

"Xiao Zhao, we have a lot of things here. Many of our sister units also want to exchange some. After all, each unit wants to give some special New Year's goods to its workers." Wang Guanghui looked at Zhao Cheng and explained the situation.

"I know the situation on your side, but our units don't need much. We only want what we need. We won't force you to have anything extra. You can exchange however you want!" Zhao Cheng knew what Wang Guanghui meant.

He was afraid that Zhao Cheng would want to exchange them for more after seeing their supplies, which would be difficult for them to explain to their fellow units.

After all, the Northeast during this period was the real eldest son of the country. After crossing Shanhaiguan, it could be self-sufficient in almost everything, so there was no need to exchange with Zhao Cheng and others.

The reason they agreed to the exchange was because of Zhou Zhigang's face, and Zhou Zhigang agreed because Zhao Cheng had helped their family so much.

"Since you said so, Xiao Zhao, we are relieved. We will keep everything you brought. No matter whether it is useful or not, it will be put to use and not wasted. As for what you want to exchange, just come with me to the warehouse to have a look! We will exchange whatever you like!" Wang Guanghui was not a stingy person, so he directly agreed to take Zhao Cheng and others to the warehouse to have a look.

After Zhao Cheng unloaded all the things in his car to the warehouse of Wang Guanghui's unit, Zhao Cheng also brought Director Liu and representatives of the textile factory to the warehouse of Wang Guanghui's unit.

This warehouse is not in the company yard, but a large warehouse near the train station. It usually stores some wood transported from the forest area.

When Zhao Cheng and his team drove into the warehouse, he didn't mind. After all, he had seen warehouses much larger than this one before. The supplies were so shocking that the people on the scene dropped their jaws.

But the current warehouse also surprised Zhao Cheng. He saw that the outside of the warehouse was mostly large timber, most of which were more than one person could hug.

The smallest ones are about twenty meters long, not counting the treetops. Those treetops are basically consumed directly in the forest area and used for burning fires for heating.

The warehouse is filled with production tasks from the past month, and most of those that are more than a month old have already been shipped away.

Looking at these timbers, Zhao Cheng also realized the current abundance of resources. He heard that this was the case when many thicker and larger timbers had been taken away by the Japanese.

Poplars and pines were the most abundant, and there were also many rare woods. Zhao Cheng even saw iron birch among them! Although they were only as thick as a wrist, they were about four meters long.

Zhao Cheng walked over and weighed it, then asked curiously, "Brother Wang, can I buy a few of these pieces of wood?"

"Haha, Xiao Zhao, if you like, just take a few. This thing is rarely used, and we are just storing it temporarily. Many things in this warehouse are stored here, and any items will be sent out from here. The ones you like are not of much value and are not worth much!" Wang Guanghui saw that Zhao Cheng liked it, so he let Zhao Cheng take a few of them.

Zhao Cheng didn't hesitate. He knew that this wood was once useful, but now it was rarely used. It was indeed not worth much. So Zhao Cheng took three pieces of iron birch wood, about three meters long and as thick as goose eggs.

The prey Wang Guanghui and his companions had caught was all in the innermost part of the warehouse. When Zhao Cheng walked over there, he saw the prey piled up.

The temperature in Northeast China is basically around minus 25 or 26 degrees Celsius during the day, so this warehouse is like a natural refrigerator.

There were piles of pork shanks, whole goats, roe deer, pheasants, flying dragons, and even a few blind bears, but they had all been cooked and skinned.

Anyway, all the wild game has been simply processed, and it is very spectacular when put together.

"The meat here is mainly wild boar meat, and we just simply process it and split it into two halves. You can pick the goats, roe deer, and sika deer over there. Small animals like pheasants and flying dragons are also acceptable, but you can choose the size. There are also mountain products such as mushrooms, hazelnuts, and pine nuts. You can discuss what you want to exchange, and we will tell you roughly how much you can exchange." Wang Guanghui looked at the people brought by Zhao Cheng, who looked like they had never seen the world, and his vanity was slightly satisfied.

Zhao Cheng and the other leaders went aside to discuss the matter. Since the textile factory accounted for the lion's share, the subdistrict office and the police station only needed to exchange a small amount.

So the main thing we exchanged with the textile factory was a large amount of wild boar meat, a small amount of dried goods, and some roe deer, sika deer, etc.

The street food here is completely money-based, and you can't buy too much, so the only option is wild boar. Zhao Cheng brought a lot of food, and the things he could exchange were mainly wild boar and other meaty animals. Things like sika deer and goats had to be exchanged by Zhao Cheng himself.

After about half an hour of discussion, they decided how to allocate the trucks' capacity: the textile factory would load two trucks, and the police station and the neighborhood office would load up one truck with some leftovers, which would be given to the textile factory.

Several people took the list and went to find Wang Guanghui. "Brother Wang, these are the things that the three of us want to exchange. Please see how much you can exchange for. It's okay if it's about right!" Zhao Cheng said.

Wang Guanghui took the list handed over by Zhao Cheng and took a look at the contents. They were basically all meaty things. It seemed that these units in Peking were indeed short of meat.

And the meat was what they had the most. So Wang Guanghui waved his hand and directly gave up a lot of the exchange ratio.

The textile factory exchanged over 6,000 kilograms of meat, enough for nearly three kilograms for each of the more than 2,000 employees. Whether all of it was distributed to the employees was beyond Zhao Cheng's control.

The subdistrict office bought less than 3,000 kilograms of meat, which is enough for the needs of the families of military martyrs at the end of the year.

Zhao Cheng exchanged a thousand kilograms of meat for the police station. They were small to begin with, so after distributing the New Year's goods, there was still a lot left. Zhao Cheng also exchanged a lot of various mountain products.

Zhao Cheng earned more himself, but it was mainly used for gifts. Zhao Cheng still had to maintain relationships with several of Tian Shu's comrades in Peking. Tian Huaizhong had previously hinted that these relationships would be given to Zhao Cheng in the future. How far Zhao Cheng could maintain these relationships depended on his own ability.

After the exchange materials are decided, Zhao Cheng just needs to wait for the truck to load them. However, he will not leave today. He plans to stay at the guesthouse of Wang Guanghui's unit and go back tomorrow.

"Xiao Zhao, since you can't leave today, why not come to my house for a simple meal tonight? Your sister-in-law always says she wants to thank you very much. It's a good thing that you are here this time, so you must come to our house and visit us!" Zhou Zhigang saw that there was nothing else to do, so he pulled Zhao Cheng aside and said.

Zhao Cheng thought so too. He felt that he should go to Zhou Zhigang's house to see Zhou Bingkun, the good man in this world!
