Chapter 316: The War of the Cloth
Shao Nianshi retracted the hand that patted the other party's shoulder, because just now, he realized that this young man's body was so rugged.
His head, which is bigger than everyone else, is not the baby fat that Shao Nian first misunderstood, but the early swelling caused by long-term malnutrition.
Just look at the bulging bones on the shoulders, and you can see what kind of life this poor child had lived before.
Just when Shao Nian was feeling sympathy for the misery of this young man, this little stammerer who got a job because he liked to chat, fell into great joy.
He probably didn't believe that he had such luck, and when he saw Shao Nian, he had already straddled his car, but he still kept following behind the car that was already gurgling.
"Really, yes, is it going to use us?"
"If I go to work in the past, a month, a month, a month, can I really take sixteen yuan?"
For Shao Nianshi, this salary is the lowest level of labor wage in a big city.
But when it was shown on the face of the young man opposite, it was as if he had received a great favor.
Since Shao Nianshi relied on his own ability to live his life, he has not had a feeling of blockage in his heart for a long time.
But when he came to Qingcheng and saw with his own eyes the current situation of the people in Qingcheng, as well as the lives of the low-class Chinese people everywhere here, the feeling of powerlessness and helplessness in Shao Nian returned again, accompanied by his side, so that he could no longer sleep steadily.
So, he has a lot to do now.
He must have a greater voice and more wealth in Qingcheng in order to stand in a position that will not fall easily.
Then, after ensuring their status and security, they can influence and change the current situation of Qingcheng through the superstructure.
Therefore, now his main purpose is to make money.
The success of Dahua Textile Factory has become a crucial step in his follow-up plan.
Everything he saw today was only temporary, and when he poured out his hand, he must take care of these Japanese and let them know that in this city, in this land, they can't do whatever they want by their own temperament.
"Yes, it's true, I won't lie to you, after all, there is no benefit in lying to you. ”
"If I hadn't come today, you'd only know about it for a few days in the evening. ”
"It's just that you all live in the suburbs, so you probably don't go to the city center very often. ”
"When it comes to the official recruitment day, I'm afraid I won't get the news from there. ”
"So, you're a lucky boy! So, what are you waiting for?"
"Hurry up and go back and pack up, I'm waiting for you to come over in the southern suburbs!"
After speaking, Shao Nianshi waved his hand at the little stammerer who had already taken a few steps away from him, and with a force, he kicked towards his way home.
It was probably Shao Nianshi's last words that this little stammering heart finally became steady, and the young man who got the news shouted loudly towards the figure that was getting smaller and smaller: "My name is Zhang, Zhang Tiezhu!
"Thank you, benefactor, what are you called?"
This voice is not small, but it is a pity that Shao Nian, who is riding fast, only has the whirring wind in his ears, but he is half grateful and has never heard it in his ears.
Now he has to take care of the textile market in Qingcheng.
In order to be good on the roof of the textile factory, after the machine rumbled, the good cloth of those thick piers was sold to thousands of households in the city.
At the same time, free from those Japanese-style flower cloths and the common people, this very large market has been firmly established.
"Where have you been?"
Chen Jiefu looked at the large volume of cloth that Shao Nian carried back and expressed great surprise.
For his own partners, after the situation is stabilized, he will take over the director of the entire factory, and Shao Nianshi certainly has nothing to hide.
As soon as he told Chen Jiefu, who was also a newcomer, that he had some superficial situations in the market, the technology with a strong sense of justice immediately gave the factory director a lot more urgency.
"Then we have to speed up the progress of the project, and as for the purchase of the machine, we can't delay too much. ”
"In the past two days, after I pressed the price to the best psychological price, I assembled the assembly line from the hands of the German compradors. ”
"The Japanese engineer was on a recent cruise. ”
"If that's what you say, I'll probably have to work harder. ”
Because only if Chen Jiefu learns Japan's advanced printing and dyeing technology faster, he will not be controlled and manipulated too much by the Japanese side.
In turn, they can have the right to print and dye independently.
Similarly, the more deeply Chen Jiefu learns about the Japanese printing and dyeing technology, the more appropriate adjustments and improvements he can make on this basis.
Even if in the end, there is some entanglement for the color and color printing and dyeing methods, and the improved printing and dyeing technology will not at least become an excuse and reason for the Japanese side to attack itself in terms of copyright.
Thinking of this, Chen Jiefu couldn't care about staring at the construction site.
From time to time, he would come to Shao Nian's dormitory to get one or two primary colors of fabrics and compare them with the colors produced in his dye trough.
Don't say it, after having a benign comparison, it really gave Chen Jiefu a lot of inspiration.
So what was Shao Nian doing during these times?
He jumped very happily in the streets and alleys of Qingcheng.
Shao Nianshi first cut off contact with the Chu family's chamber of commerce base in Qingcheng, and obtained a lot of very specific information from the person in charge of Qingcheng that outsiders did not know.
Foreign cloth merchants, especially large merchants, enter the Qingdao route and the most common place to stay.
One is the Hademen Hotel, which is the favorite place for southern cloth merchants, and the other is the Yingkesong Inn that northern cloth merchants like to go to the most.
Among the two largest foreign investment locations in Qingcheng, when the season changes, it is the time when cloth merchants gather the most.
Compare the news that Shao Nianshi has heard about the money and wealth in the past few days.
Since the external liaison managers of several Japanese factories are all Chinese locals, every time these big merchants come to Qingcheng, these local managers will let the service staff working in these two accommodations inform them as soon as possible.
Then these people rushed here as soon as they received the news, and when they saw these merchants, they really attacked first, and then they suffered.
Either they will reach an agreement with the businessmen as soon as possible, or when they see that there is no agreement in a short time, they will immediately change their positions, pull the people to other hotels or inns, try to achieve the degree of confidentiality that only they know, and then slowly negotiate with these businessmen.
Therefore, when these fixed seasons come to the time of year, a war breaks out in these two accommodations.
This made Shao Nianshi, who knew about this situation, couldn't help frowning, and he was really worried about the current chaos.
Because the current situation is that once he participates like these Japanese business managers, then the representatives of the six Japanese companies that were still fighting together will form a temporary offensive and defensive alliance at the first time.
It is inevitable to squeeze out the sudden appearance of themselves, and then carry out a civil war between them.
After all, there are so many market resources, and one more will mean a lot of trouble.
It seems that this effective way of preemption is not suitable for the current Dahua textile.
If you want to find a breakthrough, I'm afraid it's a bit unrealistic to start from this aspect.
But it doesn't matter, the market is not a closed environment, and the sales of cloth are not only a channel for large customers.
At a time when Dahua was not yet as large as the other six, it only needed a small market share to keep it running.
And Qingcheng's own consumption power is enough to meet Dahua's current needs.
So where do people go most often to buy fabrics?
It's not the department stores that have the most Japanese goods, nor are they the high-end tailor shops that are just a noble business.
Rather, there are cloth villages of some size, tailor shops with only a small door face hidden at the corner of ordinary residential areas, or large gatherings in surrounding counties and districts that are placed every five days on the outskirts of the city.
In these places, you can just wander around on the way home from work, and when you have a weekend break, you don't have to wear good clothes and hang out without any mental burden.
Maybe it's just a casual look at what is trending these days, and these housewives in Qingcheng who hold a family's finances will be attracted by the materials or clothes hanging on the models, so as to spend the amount at their disposal.
And the shopping environment of those traditional old shops related to cloth art can better meet the appetite of middle-aged women who are a little helpless in the face of foreign adults.
At the very least, if they wander around these places, they won't be ridiculed and looked down upon by the somewhat arrogant salesmen.
Of course, the rules that Shao Nian was able to discover, and the managers who worked for Japanese textile mills were not idiots, and they naturally discovered the key.
According to Shao Nian's casual conversations with the shopkeepers who are really in charge of these cloth houses these days, if they want to sell a new brand of fabric in this more traditional cloth village, they want to give the shopkeeper of this cloth village certain benefits.
This is an unspoken rule in the cloth sales industry.
Because don't look at these cloth villages, the real masters behind these cloth houses are the local wealthy merchants or the industries of big merchants.
But in the cloth shops, the real masters are the shopkeepers who stand behind the counter and calculate the sales.
The wealth and income of these people are ostensibly the salaries paid by their master's family.
In fact, in private, they still have an unknown dark line of income.
That's the tap.
It doesn't matter if you are Japanese, Chinese, or German, and you want to sell it in their cloth estate, then you must follow the rules of their cloth factory.
In addition to the normal agreed commission to be given to the proprietor for every foot of cloth sold, in private, the shopkeeper in charge of the store must also be given a benefit of 5%.
This amount of money may seem insignificant.
However, if the sales volume of a store accumulates a sufficient amount, it is a huge income for the shopkeeper of a cloth house.
Some cloth villages with large customer mobility, the shopkeeper of the house, just take a commission, and you can get an extra ten tinkling oceans every month.
Therefore, if you want to sell your own cloth and open up your own sales, you must not only consider the brand competitiveness and the quality of the fabric.
The deployment and relationship of relevant personnel in the market has become a crucial link.
If you want to say that Shao Nian's textile printing and dyeing technology can only be regarded as a layman, he has never been afraid of anyone when dealing with people.
In the past few days, he has fully disguised himself as a salesman of a small textile factory, and with his honest and reliable face, he has conquered the hearts of many shopkeepers who are accustomed to seeing flamboyant salesmen.
As for people, it's so strange.
When he stands at a certain height, it is easier to sympathize with the weaker groups.
What's more, telling the industry's commissions and rules to the newcomers in the industry is what they should do as shopkeepers.
After all, if the rules are not explained clearly, it is not conducive to them earning this piece of gray income, right?
But who would have thought, how could this child be so sincere when he was young?
Not only did he negotiate with their shopkeeper, but when everyone gave the shopkeeper a 5% commission, he wanted to add another percentage to the other party because of his affection.
Moreover, in this cloth village, he not only gave the shopkeeper a commission, but also gave the guy who bought the fabric.
As long as he sells the fabric of their Dahua textile factory, even if he only sells one foot, in addition to the six percent profit he gives to the shopkeeper, he also gives the young man who sells this foot a profit of one percent.
When Shao Nianshi found those young men from the cloth village to talk about these things, he did not shy away from the existence of the shopkeepers.
Therefore, while he received the astonished eyes of countless young men who were not much older than him, he also received many loving and sympathetic glances from the shopkeeper.
Oh, what a honest young man, after he returns to the factory after all these things, he won't be fired by the angry factory director, right?
But when Shao Nianshi said with an innocent smile that this was part of his own commission, the eyes of those people really became grateful and embarrassed.
This kid is so hard-working, it looks a little stupid, but for the sake of him really not being fancy, if Dahua's cloth is on the market, let's sell more for him.
