Chapter 553
Ivan said that any price was negotiable, but when it came to the price, he was really unwilling to give up a penny.
Ren Heming wanted to haggle with him to increase the ratio of grain to steel, but in the end, it was still 1:1.2, and Ivan refused to give in.
Meng Haisheng could still accept this ratio. My best plan before coming was 1:1, but now this ratio was beyond his expectation.
"Okay, then we'll settle it. When will the first car start to leave?"
Ren Heming received Meng Haisheng's instructions, finalized the price, and discussed other details.
"There is only one train from Tukum to Guanshan Town a week. As long as you can transport the grain to Tukum, I can fill it with steel for you to transport back."
Meng Haisheng shook his head directly. He didn't want to trade in Tukum.
"We will trade at Qingchaotun Station, delivering grain on one hand and steel on the other. If we transport grain to Tukum every week, it will be too conspicuous."
Ivan, who was still very excited just now, was poured a bucket of cold water by Meng Haisheng, and he woke up instantly.
How could he forget this?
One carload of grain is 50 tons, and transporting it to Tukum at one time will definitely attract attention.
"Boss Meng is still thoughtful. Isn't it a bit far to trade at Qingchaotun Station? Can you see if we can trade at Hukoushan Station? It is right at the intersection of the two, and it is easy for us to handle the procedures separately."
There are only a few stations from Tukum to Guanshan Town, and Hukoushan Station is indeed in a good location.
"Okay, then trade at Hukoushan Station, but we can't do one carload of grain a week. I will notify you in advance when the goods are available."
Meng Haisheng can transport all the grain to Qingchao Forest Farm for temporary storage, and discuss the specific trading time with them, which can greatly reduce their risks.
Ivan was naturally willing to do anything, as long as he was given food and asked to carry the steel to the forest farm for Meng Haisheng.
After discussing the details of the transaction and the contact person, Meng Haisheng and his group left in a hurry after lunch.
Although they looked like ordinary people on the surface, they just came to Tukum to exchange some small things.
But the two carriages were still quite attractive.
If they were targeted, it would not be so easy for them to leave.
It was also for the sake of safety that Ren Heming had never thought of living in Tukum from the beginning.
The group drove the carriage, pretended to buy some meat from Tukum, and left Tukum slowly.
Meng Haisheng sat in the carriage and carefully thought about all the details of exchanging food for steel in his mind.
It was no big problem for him to exchange small quantities alone.
But if he wanted to exchange large quantities, he had to find a backer.
Meng Haisheng couldn't help but look at Lin Jinyan next to him.
From what Ivan said today, he could also get weapons, but he just had to report it.
The last time they found the batch of guns from the Republic of China in the cave, Lin Jinyan didn't dislike them, which shows that the country still lacks these.
If he can help cover up and get some weapons back for Lin Jinyan, his small business can be done more smoothly.
Even if someone is jealous and reports him, he is not afraid.
But there is no rush for this matter. He will get familiar with Ivan first and see how capable he is.
Meng Haisheng's calculations were clacking in his mind, and the sharp Lin Jinyan couldn't help but look at him several times in a row.
Tukum Town was gradually left behind.
All around was white, and only in the primeval forest in the distance was there a touch of green.
Just as Meng Haisheng looked into the distance, a group of birds in the forest were frightened and flapped their wings to fly towards the blue sky.
"Everyone, be alert. I feel something is wrong."
Lin Jinyan looked towards the flying birds, which was the place they were going to pass by.
"There are so many of us. Could it be that some of the Russians are blind and want to pick on us?"
Hou Song frowned slightly, his hands already on his waist.
"We are all dressed like honest farmers now. What if someone is really blind?"
Meng Haisheng also became very alert.
The people in the Snow Country are very fierce, and the guns here are not as strictly controlled as in China. If they really meet, it will not be as simple as a fight.
Ren Heming often travels between the two countries, so he naturally knows how serious it is.
He wanted to joke with Meng Haisheng and the others, but now he is serious, and even the hand holding the whip is a little tighter.
For a while, there was only the sound of horse hooves and the click of wheels pressing on the snow in the field.
Everyone was nervous, and even their breathing slowed down a bit.
"At 10 o'clock, someone is lying in ambush, at 2 o'clockThere are people ambushing in the direction."
"Everyone pay attention, I'll be there at 10 o'clock, Zhang Ting and Hou Song are in charge of protecting Ren Baotou and Haisheng."
"Got it."
Meng Haisheng's heart tightened, and he looked in the direction of 10 o'clock.
If you don't look carefully, you won't find that there are still a few people hiding in the snow.
They are hiding so well that you can only vaguely see a few heads crowded together.
You don't have to think about it to know what these people are doing here.
Ren Heming was pulling food to exchange for gold, and he was afraid that he was being targeted.
The carriage slowly approached, and those who were ambushing in the snow hadn't made any reaction yet. Lin Jinyan and Zhang Ting on the carriage suddenly jumped up from the carriage and fired two shots at the ambush.
Lin Jinyan's shooting skills are not simple , two shots were fired, and two screams were heard. The ambushed people just now rushed out of the snow.
As expected, these people were desperate, and almost everyone had a gun in their hands.
In this lightning, Meng Haisheng and Ren Heming got off the carriage and hid behind the carriage.
As soon as the two hid, they heard a series of bullets falling at their feet.
Meng Haisheng took out a gun directly from his arms. This group of bastards was too arrogant. They were ready to beat them to death.
"Everyone be careful, there are a total of fourteen people on the other side. I don't know if there are any people around."
"Are you familiar with the mountain here, Ren Baotou?"
Where they are, the surroundings are relatively empty, and there is no place to hide. The best way now is to run into the surrounding mountains and forests.
"I'm not familiar with this place. "
Lin Jinyan frowned when he heard that Ren Heming was unfamiliar with the surroundings.
There was thick snow in the forest. If you go there without knowing the area, you may never come back.
"Boss, we only need a few people to do it."
The gun in Zhang Ting's hand seemed to have eyes, and it never missed.
"Our guns can't compete with the opponent."
Lin Jinyan didn't mean to boost others' morale and extinguish his own breeze.
They were all holding pistols and didn't prepare too many bullets, while the opponent obviously had enough ammunition.
The two sides just met, and Lin Jinyan also saw that the opponent was not an unknown person.
