In fact, Guo Xiaozhou was wrong. In this world, it is not possible to sell the right goods with money. Especially bulk cargo and special commodities.

Cotton is a special resource, regulated by the state, and has not been open to private individuals. In order to purchase large quantities of cotton, it is necessary to go through the national cotton companies in some cotton-producing areas.

Guo Xiaozhou started to take it for granted, and he couldn't buy good things with money?

The next morning, when he came to the office, he suddenly realized what the problem was. Who did he go to buy with the promissory note? He has no long-term supply of cotton company channels; Second, there is no resources and information in this area, and third, there is no procurement experience.

Guo Xiaozhou thought about it, called the factory office, and asked Song Xiaoli, "Where was the contract for the last purchase of cotton by the raw material department?" ”

Song Xiaoli replied: "It's in the office of the raw materials department, but it's sealed...... However, it seems that the factory office has a copy of it. ”

Guo Xiaozhou said: "You hurry up and bring the copies of the contracts for the last few cotton purchases to my office." ”

Song Xiaoli's movements were very fast, and almost five minutes later, she sent a stack of copies of the contract, "Director Guo, I brought all the contracts from last year and this year." ”

"Xiaoli, thank you!" Guo Xiaozhou hurriedly took the copies and looked at them one by one. He thought to himself, where do you go to buy, I'll just follow.

Song Xiaoli squirmed and seemed to want to stay in Guo Xiaozhou's office for a while, but when she saw Guo Xiaozhou bowing her head and sinking into work, she rubbed for a while and left disappointed.

While Guo Xiaozhou was looking through the contract, he took a pen to record the contact number of the cotton company and the name of the legal person.

Half an hour later, he recorded the phone calls of more than a dozen cotton companies on paper.

After analysis, most of them are in the key areas of cotton production in the east.

So, he started making calls to the first cotton company.

"Hello, I'm Zhou Kangtai and Guo Xiaozhou from the cotton spinning factory, may I ask if your general manager Chen is here?"

"Not there." After the other party finished speaking, he "snapped" and pressed the phone.

Guo Xiaozhou felt inexplicable, and he began to make a second call.

"Hello, I'm Zhou Kangtai and ...... Cotton Mill"

"I'm sorry, we don't do business with Taihe." The phone was hung up again.

"Huh!" Guo Xiaozhou was puzzled, and the more he thought about it, the more unconvinced he became, and began to call the third cotton company.

This family had a better attitude, talked with him for five minutes, and finally said very euphemistically that their company only contacted the special salesman of Taihe Cotton Mill, and asked him very vaguely, you are robbing your colleagues' business like this, and the industry is not allowed.

It wasn't until later that Guo Xiaozhou completely understood that Taihe Cotton Mill had specially formulated a hard rule for the sake of not digging into each other's corners between salesmen, and that A's business place and B could not go, and similarly, B's business resources, A or C could not go, that is, they would go to negotiate, and the cotton mill would be stopped in the last contract signing procedure.

In the end, Guo Xiaozhou came to a rather sad conclusion, he recorded all the contract contact numbers, which was useless at all. It is impossible for the other cotton company to abandon the old salesman who has cooperated for many years and go to trade with a stranger.

Unless he is not an employee of Taihe Cotton Mill, or the other party has not had a transaction with Taihe Cotton Mill before.

Thinking of this, Guo Xiaozhou made a move.

He found that there were three county-level cotton and linen companies in the eastern Huangzhou area that had traded with Taihe, so could he go to the fourth, fifth, and sixth companies in Huangzhou......

Immediately opened the yellow pages of the phone, found all the cotton and linen companies in the Huangzhou area, and quickly screened out six new companies.

Call one by one, and quote according to the price and cotton grade on the contract.

The person who answered the phone was either perfunctory or thought it was funny, millions of huge cotton purchases, and they actually found a cotton company they didn't know to operate? It's either a liar or a lunatic!

He didn't feel any sincerity on the other side of the first three phone calls and the price was on the high side, but he also gained a little, at least he exercised his experience in talking about business.

He then made a fourth call, and the person who answered the call claimed to be the general manager of the cotton company.

He still quoted according to the contract, and said how much he purchased, as well as several grades of cotton.

The other party laughed, "We have the grade of cotton you want, if you are sincere, you might as well come to our flower factory to have a look." ”

Guo Xiaozhou looked at the time, at half past nine in the morning, checked the train schedule to Huangzhou again, and immediately called Song Xiaoli and asked her to book a train ticket to Huangzhou at eleven o'clock immediately. At the same time, he also called Xu Changde and asked him to arrange a cotton inspection engineer to be on standby at any time, wait for him to be informed, and then rush to Huangzhou to cooperate with him to inspect the cotton grade.

There were still two and a half hours before he got into the car, and he hurriedly turned on the computer and went to the Guanghan Forum. Although he was assigned to a temporary post, the work of the forum moderator could not be left behind. Being online for at least two hours a day is also a hard and fast rule.

After the forum went through the turmoil of "casual door", due to the fact that countless forum IDs were blocked, it seemed a lot more deserted, and after he casually followed two stickers, he shifted his attention to the city style section of Guanghan, the so-called city style, which is under the jurisdiction of several lower-level counties and cities under the jurisdiction of Guanghan, including "Textile New City - Zhou Kang".

In the past, he rarely paid attention to a few urban plates, because he didn't understand it, and because it was irrelevant.

But now it is different, he came to Zhou Kang as a stranger, and the forum must be an excellent channel.

Roughly browsing the title, because it is summer vacation, many posts are related to summer vacation training and holiday travel, and then there are a few hymn posts, advertorials......

He flipped a few pages and was about to return to the upper column, when his eyes were suddenly attracted by a post - "Why Taihe is declining, I see." ”

He immediately opened the sub-column, and when he was about to read it, his forum text message "Dudu" rang, he clicked on it and saw that it was "Yunyun Yiyun" who sent him a sentence: "Look at you online, the new job is smooth?" ”

Guo Xiaozhou immediately briefly told him about the situation he encountered and the situation that he was about to go to Huangzhou to purchase.

Yun Yun Yiyun was silent for a long time, and replied: "If you don't defeat yourself, no one can defeat you." ”

Guo Xiaozhou replied: "Ambitious! ”

"Thousands of tall buildings rise from the ground!"

Guo Xiaozhou did not hesitate to type a line of words: "Never bow your head!" ”

Yun Yun Yiyun sent a line of words: "Only those who know how to go to the station in advance will never miss the train." ”

Guo Xiaozhou smiled, and was about to reply, when Song Xiaoli took the ticket in her hand and rushed in.

"Director Guo, I got the ticket, I have already notified the driver of the factory office to take you to the train station."

"Thank you, Xiaoli." Guo Xiaozhou hurriedly closed the computer and sorted out the documents and contracts on the table.

Song Xiaoli stepped forward to help, Guo Xiaozhou said, "No, I'll ...... it myself"

But Song Xiaoli didn't care about it, and rushed to clean it up, and her young eyes showed a hint of charm and spring from time to time.

Guo Xiaozhou is considered to be a person from the past, and he suddenly knew that he had a little trouble. He didn't want to cause this kind of scandal during the suspension period, even if he was unmarried, but the rumors of falling in love on the temporary job would always affect him, and there was Xie Fuli staring at him with inexplicable eyes.

He decided to wait for the work to be smoothed out, and then explicitly or implicitly Song Xiaoli, it was impossible between them.

Even though his expression turned a little cold, Song Xiaoli was still like a female peacock, proudly showing him her proud delicate body.

…………

…………

Guo Xiaozhou took a four-hour train ride and finally arrived at Huangzhou South Railway Station, but the cotton and linen company he went to was Zhangxian, an agricultural county below Huangzhou City, which was still more than 30 kilometers away from Huangzhou.

Out of the train station, he transferred to the bus to Zhangxian County nearby, I don't know if he was too lucky or too bad, the dilapidated minibus just departed, the sky thundered and thundered, and it rained heavily.

And the minibus he was sitting in had a long "history", with the doors and windows leaking everywhere, and the rain stubbornly penetrating through the cracks in the windows. In less than ten minutes, his clothes were soaking wet.

Forty minutes later, he got off the bus like a chicken in soup at the Zhangxian County bus station. The torrential rain in Zhangxian County is getting heavier and heavier at this time, and there are few people in the crowded station in the past, and there is no trace of taxis.

He waited at the station for ten minutes, and it was impossible to take a taxi to the Zhangxian County Cotton and Linen Company. He then dialed Zhang Xian's cotton and linen company, and the person who answered the phone was still Mr. Liu.

"What, you've arrived in Zhang Xian?" The other party obviously couldn't believe it, as the general manager of the cotton and linen company, he said similar "clichés" for decades, and when he encountered strange phone calls and talked about the price, he always said perfunctorily: "Come to the scene to see." ”

If it is an old acquaintance or a long-term customer, he will tell the sù family very directly: "You bring the cotton inspector to the XX flower factory to inspect the goods directly on the car." ”

There has never been a person like Guo Xiaozhou who rushed over without stopping with a "cliché".

He even suspected that the deputy factory director surnamed Guo was playing tricks on him.

"Where are you now?"

Guo Xiaozhou said that he was at the bus station in Zhangxian County, and now it was raining heavily outside, and he couldn't get a taxi.

"You wait, I'll send a car to pick you up." Mr. Liu put down the phone, called the driver, and asked him to go to the station to pick up a customer, he thought about it again, and hurried out, he wanted to see in person, what kind of person Guo Xiaozhou was, he was very curious.

At Zhangxian Station, Mr. Liu finally saw Guo Xiaozhou, who was soaking wet.

Although I was surprised by Guo Xiaozhou's youth, Guo Xiaozhou was dignified, with a pair of thick and calm eyes, and definitely didn't look like a liar. He immediately ordered the driver to pick up Guo Xiaozhou with an umbrella, Guo Xiaozhou shook his head with a smile, "It's not troublesome, it's already soaked." "Saying that, he broke into the heavy rain......

Seeing Guo Xiaozhou sitting wet in the car, Mr. Liu said to the driver with emotion: "Director Guo is a person who does practical things!" We called in the morning and said that we wanted him to come to the scene, no, we arrived in a few hours......

Guo Xiaozhou took the tissue he handed over and wiped his face, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm a newcomer in the cotton spinning industry, and the stupid bird wants to fly first!" ”

Originally, Liu rarely participated in the reception business, unless it was a long-term big customer. But this time, for some reason, he waved his hand and said to the driver: "Go to the mall first, buy a set of clothes for Director Guo, and then send it to the cotton and linen hotel, take a shower, change clothes, and notify the sales section chief to accompany Director Guo to talk about things." ”

Guo Xiaozhou was polite and accepted Mr. Liu's kindness. I went to the mall to pick out a set of underwear and outer clothes, and then went to the internal hotel of the cotton and linen company to clean and change clothes.

At half past six in the evening, he had a local dinner, accompanied by Mr. Liu of the cotton and linen company and the senior chief of the sales department. After dinner, Mr. Liu said to Section Chief Gao: "Director Guo's professionalism is touching, and this time I will try to make Director Guo satisfied." ”

The senior section chief who received the order entered the work procedure with Guo Xiaozhou overnight.

That night, a contract agreement was reached for 300 tons of cotton, and the payment method was also in the form of an acceptance bill rejected by some cotton companies, and of course, the price was slightly higher than the market.

After completing the agreement, Guo Xiaozhou called Song Xiaoli that night and asked her to immediately arrange for a cotton inspection engineer to come to Zhangxian County. Song Xiaoli said to do it immediately, Guo Xiaozhou was about to hang up the phone, Song Xiaoli suddenly hesitated and said: "Has Director Guo heard two pieces of news about Taihe Cotton Spinning Factory?" ”

As soon as Guo Xiaozhou heard what he said, he asked, "What news?" ”

"The city has just elected the secretary of the Taihe factory...... In addition, a large company in the province has asked for a lease contract for the Taihe Factory, and has sent people to negotiate with the municipal government and the Industry and Information Technology Commission......"
