Volume 4: The World of Great Conflict Chapter 0563 Little Devil
"Accountant Nan, I have been wandering around Wenchangwei for a long time. If Director Ge hadn't taken pity on me and brought me to see you, the real god, I don't know how long I would have been wandering around Wenchangwei."
Zhou Guanbao pulled Nan Yi to sit down, held Nan Yi's arm tightly, and started firing a gun at him.
"Hey, is there a water-cooled Type 56 light machine gun?" Zhou Guanbao's saliva kept splashing on Nan Yi's arm. Nan Yi, who felt a little bit of coolness, couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Over a dozen days, Zhou Guanbao appeared in Wenchangwei three times. The first two times, he only found Xian Yaohua, and both times Xian Yaohua evaded him before he could even open his mouth.
When the two new businesses of Xiongqi and fitness pants came out, except for Xian Yaohua, the village cadre who had just been appointed as the village party secretary, all other members of the village committee were busy everywhere, and Zhou Guanbao couldn't find someone else to replace him.
By the third time, Zhou Guanbao couldn't even find Xian Yaohua. However, when he was leaving the village, he happened to run into Ge Cuizhu who was going to the train station. Zhou Guanbao shamelessly followed Ge Cuizhu and got on the train.
As the saying goes, three times the limit, Nan Yi felt that the time had come for the tension to rise, which led to his meeting with Zhou Guanbao today.
"I'm really sorry. Our village has just started a new project and everyone has been very busy recently. I neglected Secretary Zhou. I apologize to you here."
"Accountant Nan, let's not be vain. I know that everyone in your village is deliberately avoiding me. Just tell me, can we have a serious talk now?"
Zhou Guanbao's words just now were somewhat worldly-wise, but now he was firing straight at us.
Knowing that she was deliberately avoiding him, he actually pointed it out directly?
"Of course, just tell me what you want. As long as an accountant like me can promise it, I will definitely agree to it."
Nan Yi placed special emphasis on the word "accountant", meaning to point out that he was just an accountant and could not make any major decisions for the village. He could say something about small matters, but it would be useless to say anything about big matters.
Although the title of Nan Yi Accountant has been revoked, that was only for internal use within Wenchangwei. When dealing with external parties, he can use this title whenever he wants.
"Accountant Nan, up to now, your Wenchangwei owes us Zhoujiaao 227,327.5 yuan. I know that your Wenchangwei has a rule of delaying payment for goods for half a year, and it is not aimed at our Zhoujiaao family.
If it were in the past, I would not say anything, but now we in Zhoujiaao are in trouble and are in urgent need of money. Can you Wenchangwei pay us back the money you owe us first? In addition..."
"Hey, Secretary Zhou , delaying payment for half a year is our usual practice in Wenchangwei, and it's the same for everyone. At the beginning, our village didn't do a good job and didn't explain our rules to you clearly, but later, didn't we re-sign the contract?
It is clearly written in the contract that when we, Wenchangwei, order carton products from your Zhoujiaao Village, we need to pay a 20% deposit when placing the order, and the remaining 80% balance will be paid on the 183rd day from the delivery date.
We at Wenchangwei have never delayed payment for a single day, and have always paid according to the date stipulated in the contract. Let me say something unpleasant, Secretary Zhou, it was not us at Wenchangwei who forced you to sign the original contract, right? "
"I know, I know, Accountant Nan, the original contract was signed voluntarily by us at Zhoujiaao, and you at Wenchangwei have always been trustworthy and have never defaulted on payments for goods.
But now, what we want to talk about is not the contract, but friendship, the friendship between our two villages.
This time I just want to ask you Wenchangwei for a favor, to settle our payment for the first half of the year first, and it would be best if you could give us an advance payment.
According to last year's order volume, your orders in the second half of the year will be three times that of the first half of the year. Adding the outstanding amount, I will calculate it as 800,000. Can you give us 800,000 first?"
"Wow! Secretary Zhou, you really dare to open your mouth. If you want to pay you the debt first, that's reasonable, but you want us to pay the advance payment for the second half of the year first, is that reasonable? We can't estimate how many cartons and cartons we will need in Wenchangwei in the second half of the year. Who knows whether we will get 600,000 yuan?"
Zhou Guanbao said: "If we can't use it in the second half of the year, we can continue to use it next year. Our Zhoujiaao Village will not deny it."
"So what if you admit it?
I am not afraid to tell you directly that we in Wenchangwei set a half-year payment period just to earn more interest.
The current bank's half-year savings interest rate is 6.84%, and one-year is 7.92%. If you pay half a year in advance, plus a half-year account period, that's one year. The annual savings interest for 600,000 is 47,520 yuan.
Secretary Zhou, you just opened your mouth and wanted us to break the rules we set for Wenchangwei, and you want us to lose more than 20,000 yuan in interest. Do you think this is appropriate?"
"Accountant Nan, you can't say that. In addition to business, there should be friendship between Zhoujiaao Village and Wenchangwei. We in Zhoujiaao are in trouble now, and you in Wenchangwei are helping us. When you in Wenchangwei have problems, we in Zhoujiaao will also do our best to help..."
"Besides business, there is friendship. That's a good point." Nan Yi nodded in agreement and said, "Secretary Zhou, let's talk about friendship. Which province, city, or county doesn't have a carton factory?
Wenchangwei is in Shencun, Guangdong Province. We did not find a carton factory nearby, but used cartons and boxes from Zhoujiaao Village, Zibo, Shandong Province. Is it because your quotation is the lowest? Or is it because it is most convenient to use yours? Or is it because your quality is better? "
Nan Yi waved his hand and said, "None of these, the reason is very simple, it's because the carton factory in your Zhoujiaao Village is the same as our Wenchangwei, in the past it was a collective enterprise of the brigade. We Wenchangwei developed from scratch and know how difficult it is for farmers to start a business. We sympathize with each other, so we want to help you.
Bao'an also has a carton factory, which is a street-level enterprise. It is having a very difficult time now. Both the city and the township have approached us in Wenchangwei, asking us to use their cartons, but we have withstood the pressure and it is useless.
Do you know how others scold us?
Do you know how ugly it is to say that the people of Wenchangwei are rich? It means that all the people of Wenchangwei are dead and all the sons born are blind.
Speaking of friendship, we in Wenchangwei have always been full of friendship towards your Zhoujiaao Village."
"The accountant in front of us is a scholar, right? Is there such a shameless scholar? According to what he said, Wenchangwei is giving alms to Zhoujiaao Village?"
Zhou Guanbao looked at Nan Yi who was speaking righteously with a stiff face and was stunned.
If we look at the carton factory issue independently, it can indeed be said that Wenchangwei is giving away Zhoujiaao Village. From a business perspective alone, Wenchangwei actually has better options, and there is still a lot of room for choice.
The reason for cooperating with Zhoujiaao Village is to establish a bridgehead for the reclamation group to enter Shandong Province.
The vast plain terrain of Shandong Province is very suitable for establishing large-scale vegetable planting bases. With its eyes on the whole country, the Reclamation Group must expand into several major grain-producing provinces.
But this road is difficult to walk on, extremely difficult to walk on, as the saying goes - farmers are easy to bully and difficult to help.
If the reclamation group does not establish deep relationships with the locals in the target area, it will not easily step in and invest money.
Nan Yi has heard too many cases of outsiders being eaten alive by locals when it comes to agricultural investment. Even if they are all locals, once someone has achieved something, others will become jealous and try to sabotage him.
In the business world, how are outsiders and locals distinguished?
This has nothing to do with one’s place of origin, but rather with the interests represented and whether or not one has a network of connections in the local area.
A person from Guangdong Province does business in Shandong Province, builds a network of relationships in Shandong Province, and the profits are intertwined with the interests of the people of Shandong Province. Then, to Shandong Province, he is a local person and a local businessman.
The reclamation group will be large in scale and have considerable influence in the future. The City God must consider both economic and social benefits, so it will not be too difficult to deal with it.
On the contrary, it is difficult to deal with the little devils, so the reclamation group has to take the lead and establish good relations with the local little devils before the investment arrives.
To Nan Yi, Zhou Guanbao is the local brat in Zibo.
