Chapter 7: Twists and Turns
Zhu Yike's voice trembled, "Really placed an order?!" ”
"Of course it's true!" Fan Xiaoyi trembled and held the money to show her, "The contract has also been signed, the deposit has been given, and I said that I will first try the market with 300 of them, and if the market response is good, I will place a big order!" ”
"Oh my God!" Zhu Yike took the money and counted it over and over again. A small piece like theirs, three hundred, is less than two thousand dollars, which is really not a lot of money. However, the general deposit is 20%-50%, but this time the other party paid the full amount directly!
Full payment!
What does this mean, it shows that people don't care about this money at all. This is a potential big customer!
As soon as they opened, they met such customers, and both of them were happy.
Although the full amount is not much, this is the first visible income since the establishment of their studio!
Zhu Yike snatched the contract, read it again and again, his heart was "pounding", and tears were about to come out.
"Sister Fan, we're finally open, right?"
"yes." Fan Xiaoyi was also too happy, "We have to hurry up and get out the three hundred goods, although the other party gave a week to deliver, the time is enough, but it is better for us to hurry." ”
"That's right! Right! Right! Zhu Yike hurriedly and carefully collected the contract for Fan Xiaoyi, and took the money to buy raw materials. They operate on a small scale, and they don't have a lot of raw materials.
The two of them immediately got busy without stopping.
When she went home in the evening, Fan Xiaoyi's mouth hadn't closed yet.
Dad was also happy for her, "Yes, yes, since it has opened, it will definitely get better and better in the future." ”
Liao Mingfei was also happy for her, "I wish you a prosperous business." ”
Fan Xiaoyi accepted it without modesty, "Of course!" ”
All three of them couldn't help but laugh.
They originally had sixty or seventy stocks of this style, and Fan Xiaoyi and Zhu Yike rushed for two days to drive out 400 billets. There will always be failures in every firing, and they dare not get stuck in the quantity, so they can only have more and not less. After all, this order is too important for them.
It took another day to dry and glaze, and when they were sent to the kiln and waited for the kiln to enter the kiln early the next morning, the two of them stepped on the moonlight in the middle of the night and went home, and they were already so tired that they were about to get out of shape.
However, despite their tiredness, neither of them had ever felt so grounded.
That night, Fan Xiaoyi slept very deeply and sweetly.
The next day, the two sat in the studio and didn't want to do anything. I was really tired of hurrying, as if the momentum had not passed, and once I was discouraged, I couldn't muster it up again.
Zhu Yike held his chin, "Let's go to other sales in the afternoon, and relax here in the morning." ”
Fan Xiaoyi also smiled, "How do you want to relax?" ”
The two of them are doing some work without a match, and at the same time, you and I are talking about the recent good-looking TV series and variety shows.
If time can be so satisfying at any time, it will be heaven.
However, before the dream could be enjoyed more, it was woken up by a phone call.
When the two of them arrived at the kiln boss, they looked at the debris on the ground, their legs were weak, and they almost didn't kneel.
Half of the kiln burned unexpectedly and suddenly stopped, and the billets of a kiln were all destroyed!
The kiln owner looked defeated, and according to the agreement, he had to compensate for the loss of this kiln. Although he is a small kiln, most of the people who burn him here are small scattered like Fan Xiaoyi and them, and there is nothing particularly valuable, but if a kiln is lost, it is a heavy hemorrhage.
And Fan Xiaoyi and the two couldn't even cry.
Losing money will be lost, but the contract they signed with the Korean merchant is still three days to be delivered, and it is all burned out at this time, so where will they go to deliver it!
Looking at the kiln boss who was mourning, the two of them couldn't say anything.
Zhu Yike pulled Fan Xiaoyi tightly, and her tears could no longer hold back and fell down, "It's over, we lost customers just after opening, and we have to compensate others for liquidated damages, and I don't know if we can meet such a good opportunity in the future." ”
Fan Xiaoyi gritted her teeth, "Zhu Zhu, let's do it again." ”
Zhu Yike was stunned.
Fan Xiaoyi held her shoulders and looked at her eyes seriously, "Would you like to fight with me again?" ”
Zhu Yike was stunned for a moment and wiped his tears, "How else can I fight, there are still three days to deliver, and it's too late to say anything." ”
Fan Xiaoyi was very firm, "If we stay up all night, we can drive the billet out before dawn the morning after tomorrow, find a kiln with a slightly higher price, and enter the kiln directly the morning after tomorrow, and we will be able to deliver the goods in time the day after tomorrow." ”
This means that they fought continuously for at least forty hours straight.
Zhu Yike was a little skeptical, "Are we done?" ”
Fan Xiaoyi shook her head, "I don't know, but we can try." ”
Zhu Yike thought about it and gritted his teeth, "Okay!" ”
The two immediately went back to purchasing raw materials, went back to the studio, and began to work. In any case, this batch of billets must be driven out before dawn the day after tomorrow.
When my father received a call that Fan Xiaoyi would not come home at night, he was very surprised, "You want to stay up all night?" ”
"Well, I really don't want to lose this order."
Dad disagreed, "You two girls are out all night, it's really not safe." ”
Fan Xiaoyi insisted very much, "Our studio is in the community, the community is guarded, and we don't walk around outside, so there is nothing unsafe." ”
In the end, her father couldn't resist her, so he had to agree, but decided to go to her studio after dinner to stay with her all night.
On the one hand, my mother was angry that she didn't return home at night, and on the other hand, she was afraid that something would really happen to her, so she didn't even go to the square dance, and urged her father to hurry up as soon as she had dinner.
Liao Mingfei suddenly said, "Uncle is not young anymore, it is really not suitable to stay up late with them, why don't I go?" ”
My mother was startled, "That's good, our family is ignorant, and I bother you ......"
Liao Mingfei had already brought his coat, "It's not troublesome." It's troublesome enough for me to eat and live here, Auntie, you take care of me so much, at this time, isn't it time for me to be a young man. ”
The parents of the Fan family disagreed, and Liao Mingfei was not a relative of their family, but a tenant here, so how could he be embarrassed to trouble him.
But Liao Mingfei felt that his family and the Fan family were good friends, and Fan's father was also his elder, so he was really embarrassed to watch Fan's father stay up all night with the young people. In the end, he couldn't insist, so Liao Ming flew away.
Fan's mother filled two large thermos buckets of food for the two girls and asked Liao Mingfei to carry them.
When he went out, Fan's mother was still muttering to herself, "How nice it would be if I had such a son." ”
In the studio, Fan Xiaoyi and Zhu Yike looked at Liao Mingfei who suddenly appeared, and the two of them were dumbfounded.
