Chapter 45: Wait
"Oh? Let's talk about it. ”
Both Hodgson and Lunn looked at Sandy curiously.
Sandy had a confident smile on her face.
"Tulip Sugar Factory is right next door to one of my textile mills, and the cohesion of their staff is really good, but as long as you are willing to spend money, you can't do anything. So, I paid off the employees, and they told me that the sugar production of the tulip candy industry was ......."
Hearing this, Hodgson and Lunn both had their eyes lit up. What they are most curious about now is the cost, how to make it, and the recipe for gem candy.
However, they were soon disappointed, and Sandy continued:
"I also want to know their methods and formulas, but they implement a strict division of labor system in the factory, between each type of work, they can't even see each other during working hours, they only know their own work, and they don't know the content of other people's work at all, and they all have confidentiality agreements, it is impossible to inquire directly, and I heard that there will be heavy ......rewards for reporting."
Sandy shook his head, he couldn't help this kind of thing, he couldn't buy everyone out. Let's not talk about whether he has this ability, even if he does, his wallet can't stand it.
"What's more, the process of making sugar is extremely complicated! I've visited other sugar mills before, so let's just say that if the average sugar process is 10, then their process is definitely 50 to 100 ......."
Speaking of which, Sandy still has some headaches.
During this time, he spent a very high price to buy three employees from the Tulip Sugar Factory, and he originally wanted to inquire about some secrets.
Outcome...... What the three of them said, there is no repetition at all!
How many workers are there in the Tulip Sugar Factory! He picked three people at random, and the work content was not repeated at all.
Moreover, even if it is not repeated, each of the three of them has a lot of work content, and one person is responsible for five processes on average.
In other words, these three people are responsible for fifteen non-repetitive processes!
I know that it is sugar production, but I don't know, I think they are researching some lethal weapons.
Anyway, Sandy also got these fifteen processes, and if you work backwards, you might be able to guess how they made them.
But the things that drove Sandy crazy came again. He couldn't push it back! Because none of these fifteen processes are connected! It's all disrupted.
Copying these processes individually makes it impossible to know what they're doing.
Sandy was stupid.
As for it! Is secrecy really that strong?
Although he didn't want to admit it, Sandy knew that he had spent money in vain, and he was losing blood!
But just after hearing Hodgson's words, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Like, it's not all for nothing?
At least he knew that the process of this gem candy was extremely complex, and the raw materials used were very diverse.
He also runs a factory himself, and knows that the more processes and the more raw materials used, the more costs will be.
In particular, the raw materials used in the tulip sugar industry are not cheap, so their costs are even more uncontrollable.
When others were surprised that Gem Candy dared to sell for 100 yuan a box, Sandy was not so surprised, after all, the cost was here!
"So, I'm 100% sure that they make gem candy at a very high cost! Don't look at their price, which is a staggering 100 yuan a small box, but it is possible that they can only make a few dollars of profit by selling a box! If the sales volume does not rise, the profit is not enough to deduct the tax......"
Sandy said eloquently.
Hodgson and Lunn both looked at each other and nodded.
Sandy's analysis is convincing.
"If you look at it that way, then we don't have to do anything?"
Lenn shrugged.
"Yes, we can wait now and see how much money he has to pay. Even those shop owners have the possibility to return the goods! ”
Sandy laughed a little sarcastically.
"Then it's easy, let's wait and see."
Hodgson clapped.
The three of them touched a cup, and Sandy suddenly whispered:
"By the way, I've heard that there is a group of slaves - oh no, it's laborers in the hands of your Haihui trade, I wonder if Mr. Lunn can cut his love......"
……
October 5th.
The fifth day that Gem Candy hit the shelves.
Some people have observed that the sales of gem candy in various stores have not improved. But strangely, those shop owners didn't look like they were in any hurry, as if they were going to sell slowly?
If they knew the real situation, they wouldn't be so puzzling-
With the exception of 600 boxes of gem candy sold on the first day, it has been declining for the next few days. By now on the fifth day, sales have stabilized, and about 300 boxes can be sold every day. On average, each store sells 30 boxes.
You don't have to do anything, you don't have to advertise, you can sell 30 boxes every day and earn 600 yuan. Isn't this business fragrant?
In the face of doubts and incomprehension from the outside world, the owners of these shops never responded.
They are not stupid, there are already 10 stores competing, if the news of the 20% profit can be spread, don't think about it, there will definitely be a lot of competitors to buy from Tulip Sugar Company!
The market in Qiongbi City is so big, and there are many competitors, so isn't it impossible to make money?
Only fools will explain that smart people are making money silently.
I didn't look at the tulip candy industry, and since the event, I have been low-key every day.
The outside world said that the cost of those gem candy is very high, these bosses believe it. But if you want to say that the tulip industry is not profitable, they will never believe it.
If nothing else, let's talk about the issue of a uniform market price of 100 yuan.
The ex-factory price of 80 allows you to sell 100 to earn 20% so much, can people lose money to sell?
They estimate that the tulip sugar industry should also have a profit margin of 20%, or be bold to 25%, as for whether it can have 30%, it should be impossible, after all, new products, new technologies, without a series of improvements, the cost is difficult to control.
In this situation of disturbance, a week has passed, and it has been half a month since Gem Candy was launched.
People are forgetful, and there isn't much to talk about gem candy anymore. After all, this is not a national product that everyone can consume.
But there are still some people who are concerned.
Triumph Restaurant, or the last private room.
Hodgson's face was a little unpleasant.
"It's been half a month, why hasn't the tulip sugar industry reacted at all?"
Lunn shook his head and said:
"It's not a way to go on like this, aren't they really afraid to accompany them? Or do they not lose money at all? ”
With that, Lunn glanced at Sandy.
"It's impossible, it's impossible for them not to lose money!" Sandy was categorical, and he was convinced of his own judgment.
Knock Knock Knock –
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the box.
"Enter."
One of Hodgson's subordinates came in, and he came to Hodgson's side and whispered a few words.
Hodgson's gaze froze.
After a moment, he waved his hand, and the subordinate left respectfully. Hodgson looked at Lunn and Sandy, who were a little puzzled, and said:
"Just now, major stores went to the tulip candy industry to buy goods, and there is reliable information that the total purchase amount this time is more than 300,000 United Dollars."
