Chapter 101 - Bulk Purchases (8)

That night, the eldest sister knocked on the door, Yun'er opened the door for the eldest sister, and the eldest sister said happily: "Mr. Fu, Yunyun, the eldest sister saw a message in the online shopping column: a arts and crafts factory in the eastern suburbs is going to change production, and there are many handicrafts in the factory to be processed at a low price. I'm afraid you have an idea. ”

The prince asked puzzledly: "It's too late for me to be grateful for this good thing that saves money and time, how can I have an idea?" ”

"You are a high-class person in the society of the Qing Dynasty, one person is above 10,000 people, and buying and processing goods may hurt your face. As far as I know, you royal people, especially men, face is more important than life. Let's just go and see first, and decide whether to buy it or not. ”

The prince laughed: "Eldest sister, you know the people of the Qing Dynasty very well. You're talking about changing production to do something else, right? So the processed goods mentioned by this company can't be defective, right? I have been in the military for many years, and I have been in charge of buying military supplies, and I have also done as little as possible. What kind of face do you want? Wouldn't it be better to save the money you can save and buy something else? ”

"It's not easy. Some things are easier said than done. In this way, tomorrow we will make a field trip to see the situation and then make a decision, and we will not be busy shopping. You don't know yet, there are a lot of business people here who don't take the right path, and there are many cases of cheating and abduction, so you can't be fooled. ”

"Eldest sister, let's call the shots, we are laymen in business."

"That's not good, you don't do business now, and you have to do business when you go back. You haven't officially bought your stuff yet, so you can't fall into someone's trap. Seriously, that kid understands legal matters, let's ask him to help us counsel, at least we won't be deceived, and we can have a legal guarantee, let's go tomorrow. ”

The next day, there were eight people, including the eldest sister, Mr. Zhong, Wang Ye, Yun'er, Tian Liang, Serious, Hailong, and Xiaoli, and took a bus borrowed by Mr. Zhong, and a private car for Serious and Hailong, and set off early in the morning to the arts and crafts factory in the eastern suburbs. The factory is very formal, almost to the level of a medium-sized enterprise, and the eldest sister thought that it was a small township enterprise in the suburbs. Handicrafts were okay in the past few years, but in recent years it has not been booming, the reason is too much, the market has been saturated, and thousands of handicrafts are dazzling. At first, everyone still likes it, many people buy it back to decorate the room, give it to others as a gift, or collect it, what is worthless, indiscriminate, people are numb, but it's not absolutely no one buys, and some small, delicate things are still very popular with girls. Tourists will also buy a little back to commemorate when they arrive in Beijing.

When they arrived at the factory gate and talked to the receiver, the receiver made a phone call, and a management cadre immediately came to pick them up.

In the factory director's office, a young factory director in his early thirties warmly received the eldest sister and his party. Lawyer Yan came forward to negotiate with the factory director, and of course he could not say that he was a lawyer. The general situation is similar to that on the Internet, and the factory director said that he would switch production to printing. I don't ask Lawyer Yan what he does when he buys handicrafts, he can't wait to shovel you to the door of your house with a big shovel and put the money in his pocket.

Lawyer Yan talked about the topic after a few greetings, and directly asked what the goods to be handled were. The director of the factory introduced the varieties of handicrafts to be processed like a few treasures, and told Zheng Zheng and others that his factory is mainly cloth handicrafts, including dolls, pendants, etc., and there are many types. For example, sachets, handbags, wallets, bedspreads, embroidered pillows, silk scarves, plush toys, crystal glass jewelry, aprons, cushions, etc. There are also glass, ceramics, crystals, metals, jade products, shells, bamboo weaving, clay sculptures, silk screen flowers, cross-stitch, straw weaving, resin, wood carving, beading and so on.

There are more than 3,000 boxes of goods in stock, and there are three categories: finished products, semi-finished products, and raw materials, of which raw materials are the majority. The factory director gave the price list to Mr. Yan, and the specific inventory quantity was marked in detail. Without any expression, Mr. Yan put the schedule into his wallet and said to the factory manager, "Can we take a look at your products?" ”

"Of course, of course! Everyone, please come with me, and we'll go to the warehouse to see. You can take a look at any time, our product quality in Beijing and Tianjin is the top in the same kind of products, a few please. ”

Lawyer Yan said to the eldest sister: "Let's take a look, let's be serious." ”

The similar products that Yun'er and Xiaoli bought in the wholesale market can't be compared with here, it's not enough to say that it's a small thing, but it's too much to say that it's a lot of things. What do you say about the quality, grade, and variety? can't say it, if it weren't for the eldest sister's repeated advice not to make a fuss, Yun'er would definitely scream loudly. I thought that the prince said that the sachet did not make money that day, but who knows how the prince and the eldest sister talked about it, and his attitude changed sharply, saying that he liked it.

Gao Qiang participated in Mr. Fu's bulk commodity procurement for the first time and felt very strange: what did this gentleman do with these goods? It's all what women like, can they make money? But he won't stop it, and it's not all about timber, steel, and grain, right? The purpose of his coming with him today was to protect everyone, so he didn't say a word.

After seeing the goods, the factory director's meaning is about to make a decision. However, lawyer Yan said unhurriedly: "Mr. factory director, the price of your product seems to be very general, but the price of the finished product is indicated, and the semi-finished product and raw materials may not be the same price as the finished product, right?" ”

"Of course, the finished product includes the processing fee, and the price list is also an approximate number, so you can bargain."

The lawyer said, "This is natural. Is that good? Let's go back and discuss, what is the calculation of your products here? Is it about the piece or the box? ”

"One piece is one box. We have 3,200 boxes of products in stock here, which is the kind of one-meter cubic cardboard box that you see. Mainly raw materials. Among them are a small number of finished and semi-finished products. Because we want to change production, we will not do it, and all the raw materials are new products, and there is no shoddy. You can negotiate, you can do market research, and you can propose your price according to my price, but don't delay it too long, I still have to pay the workers and many things. ”

"So be it." Lawyer Yan stretched out his right hand to the factory manager.

The next thing is market research, this lawyer is not simple, all aspects have been considered, weighed, investigated, he showed his price list to the eldest sister and the prince, and the price dropped is half of the factory director's price. Mr. Zhong said: "Xiao Yan, it's too out of line, right? ”

"Mr. Zhong, Aunt Han, Mr. Fu, you can also feel the anxious mood of this factory director, he is the idea of quickly taking the money and leaving, and I suspect that his goods have moisture, which is good from the sample, but in the market research, I saw that the products in his factory are exactly the same as those in the south, that is, the trademark has been changed, and the handicraft factory in the south is a small township. Don't worry, calm down, maybe there are any cats drowning here, don't look at the director of this factory is not very old, the energy is not small, and it is not easy to change production. Wait, drain his sharpness, kill his majesty. Ignore him for now. ”

Yun'er was a little breathless, and muttered to the prince: "Why is things so difficult here?" It's not like doing business, it's like fighting your heart. ”

The prince said: "We don't know the situation here, but all large transactions have to be extra cautious, I have been a quartermaster, but I have experienced such a thing, you are young, you don't know the sinister nature of the world, don't worry, it doesn't matter if you can't do it, didn't the eldest sister say it, there is a lot of such news, or buy it like this to save trouble, save the old on the street." I'm worried as soon as you hit the streets. Today I saw that the factory director's eyes were always slipping towards you, so you should pay attention. ”

"Something! He watched me do something, he really didn't have a tutor! "Yun'er is angry.

Three days later, the factory director finally couldn't hold his breath anymore and called Lawyer Yan: "The price list you sent can be considered, please come for an interview." ”

After some negotiations, the price was soon negotiated, and the factory director suppressed his ecstasy and tried his best to pretend to be calm: "Then please order the goods, if you can trust the contemptible, there are still workers in our factory who have not found new jobs to stay in the factory, can they help you?" You pay for your labor, even if it's a hired temporary worker. ”

Lawyer Yan said: "I'm sorry, but we have invited some students from poor families to go to school and wait for money. ”

The factory director's cheekbone was bitten several times, and he really wanted to take a bite of this young but scheming rafter!

In order to prevent the factory director from making ghosts, Lawyer Yan asked Lan Lan to select ten boys in good health from several classes in their arts and crafts department to help count the goods. said that they would pay them for their labor services, and most of these children were from relatively poor families, so they were very good at letting them do this. The so-called inventory of goods is to see that the quality and quantity meet the requirements of the order.

Lan Lan is the teacher of these students, usually very good to them, everyone is both a teacher and a student and a friend, plus Lan Lan's talent, most of these boys are fans of Lan Lan. This batch of goods belongs to Lanlan's relatives, so everyone is very dedicated to helping, and you are absolutely welcome if you are unqualified. Instead of counting the number of boxes, they poured them out and looked at them one by one.

The result of the acceptance is: 40 boxes of 300 boxes of finished products are unqualified. Thirty boxes of 500 boxes of semi-finished products were brushed down, 2,400 boxes of raw materials were brushed down, one hundred and thirty boxes were brushed down, and the rest was a total of 3,000 boxes. Some of the substandard boxes have become a safe haven for rats, cloth products such as sachets have been bitten into pieces, and some boxes are only full of white notes.

Lawyer Yan said to the factory director very seriously: "Mr. factory director, you are very shrewd, but you don't know how to do business, no wonder you want to change production." Your actions have constituted fraud, and if we are serious with you, we can take this matter to justice. Uncle Zhong, Aunt Han, Mr. Fu, let's go back. After saying that, he turned around and left.

The factory director's face suddenly turned pale, and he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly grabbed the honest prince: "This gentleman, uncle, we can discuss!" It was also the fact that I patronized the change of production, there was no care of management, the price could be let go, there was no problem with the quality of the product, and the appearance of rats and notes was a loophole in management. ”

Seeing the sincerity of the factory director's face and tears in his eyes, he said: "No matter how bad you manage, you can't let the rats be in charge, right?" You should still talk to Mr. Yan about the price. ”

As soon as he heard that there was a living mouth, the factory director hurriedly grabbed Lawyer Yan's sleeve and said almost pleadingly: "Mr. Yan, you can make it convenient and buy these goods." I did the math, no matter how much the price is cheaper than what is sold by the pound! I have a lot of workers here waiting for the last month's salary, and the rent is due......"

Lawyer Yan stopped, looked at Mr. Zhong, Aunt Han and Mr. Fu, and asked, "How many of you make a statement, can you do this business?" To do it, it is necessary to reduce the price, and to negotiate the price according to the defective products. Because that's what's left in the mouse's mouth! It's not that there is no place for pound scales, in fact, there is not a lot of money to be made on pounds, it's just a matter of method. ”

Mr. Zhong and Sister Han are also very kind people and can understand the situation of the factory director. It is indeed his negligence, so he must be forgiving and forgiving. Mr. Zhong said: "Xiao Yan, seeing that the attitude of the factory director is very sincere, let's discuss it again?" ”

The factory director regretted it later, and the original judgment was almost all invalid, he felt that the tall man in his forties was a serious "incense master", and the young and beautiful chick might be a tall **, because the age difference was a lot. This Cai Dongzhun is to open a store for a little woman to sell fun things, pleasing such a girl can only do what she likes, and she has a livelihood every day, and it is not a problem to sell goods for a few hundred yuan. How can you look at these mountain-like goods one by one? You can't find it with a sloppy eye. Hey, I don't know where to get such a piece of material, and I messed things up so much that I moved the students of the art department, and even the rat's nest was served. If people sue, they won't say anything, and they will lose anywhere! There are a lot of human and physical evidence, let's admit it. In the end, he bought all the goods of the factory at half the price set by the serious, that is to say, a quarter of the price set by the director. In other words, 100 yuan can save 75 yuan, which is really cheap enough. But the thought of the pieces that the rats had bitten and the empty boxes full of white notes made me feel troubled. The factory director said it well, and he almost swore a vow, but it turned out to be a lie. Yun'er thought, all the sellers she will meet in the future will be like this, how can she buy things? Looks like this business is too difficult to do!

The director of this craft factory was going to sell his inventory of goods for 300,000 yuan, but it turned out to be less than 100,000 yuan. If he gets angry and doesn't sell it, even the current seventy or eighty thousand will have to be wasted. The goods have been in the warehouse for too long, and it is not the main thing to attract rats, but also to see old, damp and even moldy, and there is a possibility of fire. In fact, he didn't want to change production but to go abroad, owed a lot of wages to the workers, and wanted to pat his ass and leave. Just said that they would change production and engage in printing, and the workers still had a little hope, and they were embarrassed to chase their butts for wages. The factory director also said that he would send them the money when he sold the inventory materials, and he would also send them double copies.
