Chapter 68: Mysterious Disappearance

The call was made by Li Xianqiong, saying that there was an accident on the Song family's ship, and some of the goods on board were mysteriously missing.

The first thing to be discovered is the cargo ship destined for Europe, which is subject to customs declaration and inspection after arriving at the port.

It turned out that some of the containers were empty and the inside was empty!

The captain also wondered, it was obviously full, why was it missing?

Hurriedly unpacked all the goods and checked them, and found that in addition to dozens of boxes of clothing, more than a dozen boxes of tin ingots were also missing!

The clothes are not worth much, but the tin ingots are worth a lot, more than 6,000 US dollars a ton, a total of more than 1,000 tons, all gone.

A closer look at the customs declaration form found that something was wrong, Nima, this batch of lost clothing is not cheap, and ten of them are deliberately preserved in value, a million dollars.

In the end, the value of the lost goods was more than $10 million.

What's even more depressing is that the customs declaration form is not matched, and the entire cargo cannot be cleared and is temporarily detained in Europe.

The Song family was so anxious that the object of suspicion pointed to all the crew members.

The biggest possibility is that the guards have stolen themselves, but where did the theft go?

Was it unloading halfway, or was it a prank and throwing the cargo overboard?

The Song family's cargo ships are also insured, such as shipwrecks, fires or robberies by pirates, etc., which can be compensated by insurance companies.

However, this kind of case of mysterious disappearance of goods has never been seen before, and the insurance company will investigate if the compensation is applied for in this case, and it will not be compensated if it is not investigated.

However, if the owner's goods are lost, the shipping company will compensate according to the price.

This is not like some logistics companies in later generations, the goods are lost, just to compensate for the freight, the owner can only blame himself for being unlucky, and there is no place to be reasonable.

When the news was transmitted back to Hong Kong Island, Song Shennian, the second son of the Song family, led the legal team and the investigation team of the insurance company to urgently fly to Europe to deal with the matter.

Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular.

A few days later, the cargo ship destined for the United States also had an accident, and dozens of boxes of clothing disappeared mysteriously!

The second son of Song is still in a daze in Europe, and the affairs of the United States can only be sent to the eldest prince of Song.

The eldest son of Song is called Song Jian, born to the eldest wife of the Song family, born with a sick seedling, tuberculosis, which has not been cured well.

The eldest lady left early, and the old lady Song married the second wife again and gave birth to the second son of Song.

The eldest son, Song Jian, is sick all the year round, and has no intention of doing business at home, and the second son is idle without learning or knowing, so he relies on the old lady Song to support him.

Hong Kong Island is a society governed by the rule of law, and doing business is done according to contracts, and basic integrity is still there.

Li Xianqiong's family has applied for compensation for the goods and is going through the process.

Of course, the lion's share of the compensation was not the Li family, but a tin company in Gui Province, which exported the tin ingots to Europe and earned foreign exchange.

With a value of more than nine million US dollars, the wealthy Song family is also a little broken.

When the Song family was in turmoil, the Shenniao County Taohuaxian Tea Industry Company was also in turmoil.

Spring tea has been produced, and of course it will be sold.

When Zhou Yingliang heard the price of 100 yuan a can, he was confused, how to sell it at this price.

Li Fangqian, the head of the sales section, made a round of phone calls, and there was no one to order.

In previous years, there were still some customers for more than ten yuan a pound of tea, and some sugar, tobacco and liquor companies in some nearby counties could still take some goods.

When I heard this price this year, I said that there was something wrong with your Shenniao Tea Factory, knowing that you are a foreign company this year, but foreign companies are not such a bullish method.

Zhang Junru looked at this situation, the sales department of the factory was afraid that he could not count on it, and at this price, I am afraid that no one in the state can afford to consume it, at least I have to go to the province to try it.

Zhang Junru came to Li Dongwen again, it costs money to engage in sales, first of all, we must find out what kind of attitude Boss Li is, since the cooperation has been for so long, this guy has always played cards out of common sense.

This guy really doesn't play his cards according to common sense.

Li Dongwen said: "There are no dealers, we sell them ourselves." ”

Zhang Junru: "Sell it yourself, how to sell it, where to sell it, sell it to, sell it to whom, sell it to the Year of the Monkey?"

A series of questions, Li Dongwen was also a little confused.

Li Dongwen is a boiled duck with a hard mouth: "Open a store, I see that there are many shops selling tea in Shenniao County." ”

Open a tea shop? Do you really dare to think that at the price you set, you can sell one can a year?

If it weren't for the fact that this year's service fee has risen, Zhang Junru really wants to scold Li Dongwen.

Boss Li is so willful, Zhang Junru can't follow the willfulness, the tea can't be sold, and her life is not easy.

In the end, Li Dongwen said that without counting the sales expenses, he finally determined a few sales methods, try it first, and cross the river by feeling the stones, this is what great people do.

First of all, three tea specialty stores were opened, one in Shenniao County, one in the state city, and one in the provincial capital.

Choose the best location, the most luxurious decoration, must be high-grade, it is regarded as advertising the product.

At the same time, a new product launch conference was held in the provincial capital, and an investment advertisement was published in the "Sanxiang Daily", with a full page in color, for a week.

If you want to develop a conference, you will go to Dali, contact the major tea merchants across the country, send invitation letters, include food and accommodation, and reimburse round-trip air tickets.

The national tea tasting expert master Shenma, please come over if you can invite it, and you will also be invited to eat and live with air tickets, as well as appearance fees.

Contact the major news media across the country, and all media that have reporter stations in Sanxiang Province are invited.

Wednesday, 28 April 1999.

The new product launch conference of Peach Blossom Fairy Tea was held in Sanxiang International Hotel.

More than 800 guests attended the meeting, including tea distributors from all over the country, and reporters from news media.

The number of people really couldn't be more, mainly because there wasn't that big a banquet hall anymore.

A tea ceremony performance was specially carried out on the spot, and more than a dozen well-known tea ceremony appreciation experts were invited to taste and explain on the spot.

At the banquet hall, each table is equipped with a beautiful tea maker to make tea for the guests.

The results of the tasting were unmistakable, and even the most demanding tea experts were praised for their praise.

The Peach Blossom Fairy Company is even more generous, the guests, reporters, dealers, each of the five cans of a series, free of charge, more than 800 people, more than 4,000 cans of tea sent out.

However, but, but, when the price of tea was announced, there was no dealer who ordered, and the typical applause was not popular.

Li Dongwen is also stubborn and resolutely refuses to reduce prices.

If I can't sell it in the mainland, I'll sell it to Hong Kong Island.

Li Dongwen was angry, called Zhu Hongjiang of Hong Kong Island, and asked him to sign a global general agent in the name of Hong Kong Island Taohuaxian International Investment Development Co., Ltd., all settled in Hong Kong dollars, and bought out Taohuaxian tea at the price of 100 Hong Kong dollars a can.

What is this behavior?

Isn't this Nima deceiving himself? Typical left-handed to right-handed, yes.
