Chapter 32 Continue
Song Yuanchao knew all these situations, but Jiang Dongliang and others were not. Liangxi Plastic Factory was just an ordinary factory and had never done this kind of thing before. How could the leaders of the factory know these things?
Originally, after receiving guidance from Song Yuanchao, Jiang Dongliang and the factory felt that they saw hope, but as the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
With the result now before his eyes, Jiang Dongliang was really at a loss. Helplessly, he once again thought of Song Yuanchao, thinking that perhaps Song Yuanchao could show him a way out.
"Well... let me think about it..." Facing Jiang Dongliang's request for help, Song Yuanchao pretended to think for a while and asked, "Since the third and fourth factories couldn't reach an agreement, didn't Section Chief Jiang go to other factories to talk?"
"I looked for it, why didn't I find it?" Jiang Dongliang said helplessly: "I even went to the first and second factories, but they were the same. They could only charge according to the price of telephone line casing. This way, our factory would lose too much, and we can't spend this amount at all."
"What about other provinces and cities? For example, Shanghai?"
"It's not that easy." Jiang Dongliang said with a wry smile: "Who would care about you if you don't have some connections these days? Moreover, it's such a big thing..." At this point, Jiang Dongliang's eyes lit up and he asked Song Yuanchao: "Brother Song, you are from Shanghai, do you have relatives or friends who can help find this way? If this can be accomplished, I will reward you handsomely!"
Song Yuanchao waved his hands and said, "I am just an ordinary citizen. How can I have any connections? Besides, what is our relationship? We are all friends. If there is a connection, why would it be hidden? Didn't I tell you, Section Chief Jiang, a long time ago?"
"That's true..." Jiang Dongliang's face fell and he nodded silently.
Picking up the bottle on the table and filling it for Jiang Dongliang, Song Yuanchao comforted him, "Chief Jiang, as the saying goes, things will work out when they get to the bridge. You don't have to worry too much about this. At least now Gusu is willing to accept this batch of casings. Although the price is lower and the quantity is smaller, it's a good start, right? It's better than having the goods piled up in the warehouse without being sold, right?"
“This…I…”
Jiang Dongliang didn't know what to say for a moment. He picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in it in one gulp. After putting down the wine glass, Jiang Dongliang asked Song Yuanchao: "Brother, do you still mean what you said last time?"
"What did you say last time? It's been so many days, what did you say last time?" Song Yuanchao pretended to be confused and asked back.
"You were the one who said you could allocate some money to purchase our casings!"
"Oh, about this!" Song Yuanchao took a sip of wine and looked at Jiang Dongliang: "Isn't this matter in the past? Chief Jiang, you have a market now. Although the price is a bit lower, the quantity is large after all, and the other party is a state-owned enterprise. Corporate procurement is always better than my personal purchase."
"Brother, stop saying these sarcastic words. Let me apologize to you, okay?" Jiang Dongliang was a smart man. He knew that Song Yuanchao did it on purpose. He immediately filled his glass with wine and drank it all without saying a word.
Putting down the wine glass, Jiang Dongliang said sincerely, "We are a small factory and cannot afford such losses. I have already reported this to the factory director and plan to take two different approaches. We can't just hang ourselves in one place. Gusu will try to get them to pay more money to solve some of the problems, and we will find other solutions ourselves. Isn't this asking for help from you, brother?"
"Is that so? But it wasn't like that last time..."
Before Song Yuanchao could finish his words, Jiang Dongliang took over the conversation: "I didn't disagree last time, brother! Just consider it as helping me. As long as you help me through this difficult time, I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future!"
Song Yuanchao thought about it and didn't say anything for a long time. Until Jiang Dongliang looked at him with an expectant and uneasy expression, Song Yuanchao finally sighed.
"Well, since Section Chief Jiang has said so, friends should always help each other. Let's do it as before. As for the payment period and price..."
"It's up to you. You can settle the bill in 60 days or hold one batch after another. The price we agreed on was 8.5 yuan. How about this! I'll make the decision and reduce it by another 20 cents to 8.3 yuan?"
Seeing Jiang Dongliang so impatient, Song Yuanchao smiled and said, "Chief Jiang, I'm not taking advantage of the situation."
"No, no, absolutely not!" Jiang Dongliang patted his chest and said cheerfully, "Brother, you are helping me solve a big problem. I can't thank you enough."
"Okay." Song Yuanchao finally nodded under Jiang Dongliang's expectation , and at the same time thought for a while and said, "The price will be as you said, and the payment period will not be 60 days. Simply press one batch and settle it. This way you can explain to the factory."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, brother." Jiang Dongliang was overjoyed. He grabbed Song Yuanchao's hand and kept thanking him. Finally, a sincere smile appeared on his face.
Since the matter was settled, Song Yuanchao placed an order for 300 rolls with Jiang Dongliang on the spot and asked Jiang Dongliang to transport the goods to the place where they were unloaded last time as soon as possible.
Jiang Dongliang agreed immediately, and even couldn't wait and went to the public phone at the street corner to dial the factory number. Ten minutes later, Jiang Dongliang came back excitedly and told Song Yuanchao that the factory director agreed to it and 300 rolls of casing would be delivered the day after tomorrow.
After dinner, Song Yuanchao sent Jiang Dongliang away and went to find Li Daqi and the others. Since there was no problem with the supply of goods, the clothes hanger business could continue.
After the last time, Song Yuanchao prepared to expand the scale this time. That afternoon, Li Daqi and his team found another dozen educated youths. These educated youths knew each other well, and they were either classmates or neighbors.
A meeting was held to explain clearly to everyone what was to be done, how to do it specifically, and of course the proportion of individual commissions, etc. Then Song Yuanchao divided everyone into groups according to their situations.
Those who are smart and eloquent are responsible for sales. Those who are dumb but down-to-earth are responsible for making hangers in the air-raid shelter. Zhang Bin, Wang Jianjun and Gu Jie each lead a team. Li Daqi, as Song Yuanchao's most trusted person, serves as his deputy and assists Song Yuanchao in the daily management of personnel deployment.
In addition, the purchase of iron wire was also imminent. It was impossible to have no iron wire after having the casing. On the same day, Song Yuanchao asked Li Daqi to take the money to the factories that had been negotiated last time to pull iron wire. He was busy until the next night, when he sorted the pulled iron wire in the air-raid shelter.
While waiting for Jiang Dongliang to come to him, Song Yuanchao had already asked Zhang Jianguo to help him. He made two more sets of equipment based on the last one and installed them in the air-raid shelter. Of course, this time it was not just a pure help. Song Yuanchao gave Zhang Jianguo 20 yuan. It was a lot of work and materials to make this thing, so it was not right to get it for free.
Now, his team has fifteen people. Based on the initial production speed and sales situation, Song Yuanchao no longer plans to finish production and then sell them.
In addition to the three groups of members responsible for production, the rest of the people work in groups of two in charge of sales in various vegetable markets. This way, efficiency is greatly improved and delivery speed is also faster.
The next day, Jiang Dongliang's factory driver delivered the goods on time, and Song Yuanchao led his men to unload the goods and pull them into the air-raid shelter. After counting the goods, Song Yuanchao signed the delivery note, and then told Jiang Dongliang, who came with him, that he would notify him of the next delivery time, and asked him to wait patiently, and maybe he would call him in a few days.
In the following days, the work of making and selling clothes hangers went very smoothly. Although Song Yuanchao received a notice from Principal Zhou on the third day that his file had been officially transferred to No. 2 Middle School, that is to say, from the moment his file was transferred, he had become a school worker at No. 2 Middle School.
The staffing problem was solved, and Song Yuanchao was going to work in the school-run factory. Not only Song Yuanchao, but also Li Daqi, had to report to the school-run .
However, this does not hinder the buying and selling of hangers. On the one hand, the production and sales process of hangers has been fixed, and nearly 4,000 hangers can be produced and sold every day.
Secondly, according to the task allocation, everyone's workload and work progress can be controlled. In addition, the sales of hangers are basically done in the early morning, and this time does not affect the normal work of Song Yuanchao and Li Daqi.
In addition, Zhang Bin, Wang Jianjun and Gu Jie, the first batch of members, have also gradually trained themselves and are now able to stand on their own. Song Yuanchao delegated power to them and let them be responsible for and manage most of the affairs. Song Yuanchao only needed to be in charge of the overall affairs.
