Chapter 29: Wang Dong's "Novel Theory" (2)
Even Uncle Quan, who was unimpressed with Wang Dong's statement at the beginning, was a little surprised at the moment.
Jiugong looked at Wang Dong and said secretly in his heart: "This kid, where did you learn this strange theory?" However, it does sound like there is some truth. β
Wang Dong saw that the three of them listened carefully, so he continued: "For example, for flour, we sell flour to some restaurants and shops, and the grain store gets a part of the profit, which is the profit from the sale of primary products. The people in restaurants and shops can make a part of the profit by making these flours into delicious pastries and steamed buns and selling them, which is the profit from processing primary products into high-end products. But the latter part of the profit belongs to those restaurants and shops. β
After Wang Dong finished speaking, he paused, he needed to give Sanniang, Quanbo and others some time to understand.
After a short silence, Sanniang took the lead and said, "You mean that we don't sell flour, but make flour directly into commodities, and we will earn two parts of the profit?" β
"Yes, it is clear that a part of the profit is not as good as the profit of the primary product and the profit of the advanced product combined." Wang Dong said.
Quan Bo said: "We naturally know this by selling steamed buns and pastries to make money." But boy, do you know how much it costs to sell these things? Manpower and shop pΓΉ alone will distract us a lot. β
The Wang family, although it is a famous family, has not yet reached the point where it is rich and rivals the country. On the ancestors of the Wang family, there are many scholars, above the temple, it can be said that the wind and rain are called, and the scenery is infinite. But there have been no business wizards, but in the past few decades, the Wang family has declined, and only then did they rely on the foundation of their ancestors and began to do business.
In fact, the Wang family still hoped that the clansmen could return to the temple, and did not take business matters to heart. After all, Shinong industry and commerce, business ranked last.
In the face of Quanbo's questioning, Wang Dong smiled: "Of course, but Quanbo, you have to understand that when the sales of the product are enough, the cost of operation will be shared, and it can even be ignored." β
"What's the explanation?" Jiu Gong couldn't help but ask curiously.
Wang Dong said: "To give a simple example, if a steamed bread stall owner, the labor cost of hiring people a day is 5 yuan, but selling steamed bread can only earn 6 yuan, then what is the profit? β
"Nonsense, such a topic can be counted by a six-year-old child." Quan Bo Road.
Wang Dong smiled and said, "Don't worry about Uncle Quan," after that, he turned around and looked at Sanniang and said, "And what if, selling steamed buns can earn a hundred yuan a day?" β
Wang Dong's words made Sanniang's eyes light up, and said: "If you can earn 100 yuan a day, then the 5 yuan required by labor is indeed negligible." β
"Sanniang is really smart," Wang Dong said, "as Sanniang said, the level of cost does not depend on its simple number, but on the profit it can bring, if the profit is ten times the cost, a hundred times, then the cost can not be considered." β
"Speaking of which is rhetoric, then let me ask you, what kind of goods, the profit can be ten times the cost?" Uncle Quan blew his beard and glared, obviously very resistant to Wang Dong's exaggerated talk about the "yellow-haired child".
It's just that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach, and Quan Bo is destined to lose under Wang Dong, a huge wave from more than a thousand years later.
Wang Dong said with a smile: "The question asked by Uncle Quan is exactly the purpose of me and Jiugong coming here today. β
Jiugong was stunned for a moment, and finally went around and around and returned to the topic, which made Jiugong finally feel at ease, and said secretly in his heart: "Don't you just sell a fritters, it's a primary product, and it's a cost-sharing thing, so it's such a big move." β
Sanniang is a smart person, and after listening to Wang Dong's words, she said: "The ten-fold profit commodity you are talking about is fritters?" β
"That's right," Wang Dong suddenly sighed again, "It's just that I think with Sanniang's temperament, I will definitely not use it to earn ten times the profits of the people." She still doesn't approve of the increase in the price of rice grain, so how can she sell "fritters" at a high price?
Wang Dong also grasped Sanniang's point to determine the reason why as long as Sanniang nodded, the cost of fritters could be greatly reduced.
Regarding Wang Dong's strange theory, Sanniang was interested, turned around and sat down, looked at Wang Dong, and said, "You can tell me about it." β
"Fritters are a new food developed by me and Jiugong in the past few days, which is not only simple to make, but also delicious and delicious, I guarantee that this thing will quickly become popular with bean curd." Wang Dong said, "It's just that because the price of flour is very high, not everyone can afford to eat this delicacy, so I came with Jiugong today to cooperate with Sanniang to sell flour and other materials to us at a low price." β
"Sold to you at a low price?" A smile appeared on Sanniang's face, and she said, "You also said just now that the head office is dissatisfied with my current price, and if it is lowered again, I am afraid that the head office will not adjust a grain of grain to me." β
Wang Dong said: "This Sanniang can rest assured, the grain store will sell the materials to us at a low price, and the profits we make from the sale of fried dough sticks will be shared with the grain store to make up for the profits of the grain store." β
"Is this what you said, selling the primary commodity title high-grade commodity?"
"Sanniang Mingjian," Wang Dong said, "In this way, the grain store has increased its profits, and we have reduced costs, and the people have cheap food, and the Wang family will also be praised by the people. β
Wang Dong's words are reasonable, from the most basic theory to the current real operation, which is the result of his morning of brewing.
It's just that the smallest beneficiary of his plan is precisely Wang Dong, who is the "inventor", who only has his interests, and does not rise but falls.
"How do you divide it into laws?"
Wang Dong said: "I have calculated, the grain store, sell me the materials at half of the current price, and then I will sell all these materials." The profit obtained will be at least twice that of the grain store per bucket of flour and grain. β
Eighty percent of the profits are distributed to the grain stores, and the remaining two percent of the profits are the cost of labor costs. It's just that, as Wang Dong said, if there are enough goods sold, then these labor costs can be ignored. On the other hand, if the goods cannot be sold, then the grain store and him will lose a lot.
Therefore, the level of profit depends entirely on the sales of goods, and this is also the issue that Sanniang is most concerned about.
"In terms of dividends, I trust your calculations, but this sales volume is ...... And how can you guarantee it? β
Quan Bo also said: "Yes, how can you be sure that your fritters can be sold well?" β
Wang Dong smiled slightly, and said secretly in his heart: "If fritters are not popular, how can they be popular in China for thousands of years?" β
However, he couldn't say this, just looked at Meng Yao, and said seriously: "Sanniang tomorrow morning, you can come to the morning market in the east of the city first, and you will know if it is popular at a glance." β
"Okay." Sanniang clapped the board, and as soon as he saw Wang Dong's table tomorrow morning.
