Chapter 243: A Visit to the Chen Family(1/2)
In the afternoon.
In front of a Western-style villa, a black Chevrolet car parked at the door.
The middle-aged doorman took two steps forward, opened the door for the back seat of the car, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Lou, right? My husband has been waiting for you for a long time."
Father Lou also smiled and nodded, and got out of the car, "I heard that Mr. Chen has always kept his promise, but he came late."
Yi Chuanzong also walked out of the car at this time and took a look at the villa in front of him. The area was similar to Lou's father's house, but the location was far different. The Chen family's villa was in a prosperous area in the center of the city.
"Please come in." The middle-aged guard bowed slightly and guided.
Father Lou nodded and followed, followed by Yi Chuanzong.
The guard was a little surprised when he saw Yi Chuanzong following him. What was a bodyguard doing?
"Mr. Lou, who is this?"
Father Lou introduced: "This is my virtuous son-in-law."
The middle-aged doorman's face suddenly became clear, "It turns out he is the uncle of the Lou family. I have never heard of anyone talking about it before. I'm disrespectful."
Yi Chuanzong smiled and shook his head, "I just came from the mainland two days ago."
The middle-aged doorman didn't say anything more and led the person all the way to the second floor.
Yi Chuanzong looked carefully along the way. The decoration here is very Western-style, with screen walls, sofas, and chandeliers. It looks very grand.
Walking to the door of the living room, the middle-aged doorman knocked on the door and bowed: "Master, Mr. Lou and his uncle are here."
"Please come in."
A reply came from inside the door, the voice was slightly low and stiff, and felt full of power.
The middle-aged doorman opened the door and raised his hand to signal the two of them to enter.
Yi Chuanzong looked inside the room. Under the huge crystal chandelier, there was a set of black coffee tables and seat-style sofas. The sofas on both sides had only one seat, and the middle sofa was longer. At this time, there was a man in his forties sitting on the middle sofa.
middle-aged man.
He was wearing a blue-striped suit and had dark oily hair. When he saw the door opened, he stood up with a smile, but because he looked a bit old-fashioned, his smile looked a bit stiff.
Beside him was a woman who looked to be in her thirties, with a graceful figure and a black dress full of nobility.
"Mr. Lou, welcome. I heard that you are planning to discuss business with me. I have been preparing for a long time."
Father Lou smiled brightly and said, "I've kept Mr. Chen waiting for a long time."
"Come and sit."
"good."
Father Lou sat on the seat on the left, and Yi Chuanzong sat on the opposite side.
At this time, Chen Weizhe also turned around, looked at Yi Chuanzong, and then said with a smile: "This little brother looks really strong."
Yi Chuanzong smiled and nodded, "Maybe he ate too much, so he gained some extra fat."
Chen Weizhe nodded with a smile and said nothing more. It was not until the middle-aged lady poured tea for the three of them that he finally said, "Mr. Lou said he has business to discuss with me. I don't know what the business is?"
"
Father Lou didn't hide it, he said directly: "How is the clothing business?"
Chen Weizhe's expression remained unchanged, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking. After waiting for three seconds, he slowly spoke, "This aspect is not easy to do."
Father Lou glanced slightly sideways, "How do you say this?" He had already prepared in his heart. This clothing is the core business of the Chen family, and they only rely on it to make money. Xiangjiang only has such a big area, so Chen Weizhe will naturally not let others interfere.
.
Chen Weizhe continued to speak expressionlessly: "From the purchase of raw materials, to weaving, dyeing, and the subsequent cutting and sales, it can be said to be very troublesome. It will be difficult if there is not enough preparation."
The implication is that my Chen family has been running the business for so many years. If you want to get involved, you have to grab these things I mentioned.
Father Lou seemed to not have heard it, and complimented with a smile: "In this area, if you want to make clothes, you have to find Mr. Chen."
Chen Weizhe frowned slightly. What does this mean? Does the Lou family still want to have a chance with him? Although he is friendly and makes money, it does not mean that he has no means. In a place like this, if he has no means, he will be eaten up by others.
.
"That's why I came to discuss cooperation with Mr. Chen." Father Lou added with a smile.
Chen Weizhe suddenly realized that he was here to discuss business. He had always thought that Father Lou was here to discuss opening a factory!
Since they were talking about business, the smile returned to Chen Weizhe's face again, "How do you want to talk?" However, he was very surprised, because based on the information he learned, the Lou family should not have sales channels.
Father Lou smiled and said: "I will provide the styles, you will produce them, and then I will sell them. What do you think of this?"
Chen Weizhe was silent for a moment, then said: "It should be more than that, right? What else?"
The smile on Lou's father's face became even thicker, "There is also our way of cooperation. If the money and goods are cleared, then there is no need to negotiate like this. Just talk about the price directly. But I have a new way of cooperation.
That means you ship the goods, I sell them, and then the two of us share it."
Yi Chuanzong cheered up after hearing this. The most important step was coming.
Chen Weizhe frowned again. This method of cooperation suddenly sounded like a waste of money, and it also smelled like borrowing chickens to lay eggs.
But if you think about it carefully, the Lou family can't engage in a losing business. Even if his share is not high, he will definitely be able to keep his capital. If he loses money, it will only be a loss to the Lou family. Is the Lou family so confident that they can make money?
This was the first time he discussed business like this, and for a while he was confused about the gains and losses.
"How does this relate to sharing?"
"Three-seven." Father Lou said without blinking.
Chen Weizhe refused directly, "No! 30% of the profit is not even enough for me." In fact, the capital is definitely enough, but the profit is not enough.
"I can guarantee that the 30% profit will be 20% more than if I bought it directly from you!" Lou's father said confidently.
When Chen Weizhe heard this, he became even more puzzled. If the profit for him was higher than buying it directly from him, then why not buy it directly instead of sharing it? Isn't this giving him money?
What kind of medicine does this guy sell in his gourd?
Chen Weizhe really couldn't figure it out at the moment, but this didn't stop him from making money, "Thirty percent, my share is too low!"
Father Lou smiled and shook his head, "Mr. Chen, you think the price of 30% is low because you think you are spending too much, but do you know how much I have to spend?"
Chen Weizhe didn't say anything. He just listened in silence and kept calculating in his mind. He still didn't understand what medicine Lou's father was selling in his gourd.
"Want to hear the details."
Lou's father said confidently: "Is this part of the early design of the style mine?"
Chen Weizhe nodded.
"It's okay if it's local, but if I plan to sell in other places, then I have to bear the freight. After arriving, I need to do some publicity, which will cost a lot of money..." Father Lou said
I listed down what I needed to spend little by little, and finally added, "If the profits are not satisfactory by then, I can guarantee that your profits will not be reduced."
Chen Weizhe didn't say anything, tapping his fingers on the sofa. He felt that Father Lou was particularly difficult to deal with this time. When it came to it, he didn't even know what the other party wanted. He really just needed him to process and make it.
So troublesome.
Suddenly, he remembered that Yi Chuanzong had also followed him. The old fox couldn't see through it, so could he tell anything from this kid?
Turning his head, Chen Weizhe was stunned for a moment.
Yi Chuanzong put his fist on his chin with one hand, looking deep in thought, and he didn't even know he was looking over.
In this case, he naturally couldn't see anything.
Chen Weizhe felt an even bigger headache. This guy didn't seem to be a fuel-efficient guy.
"Mr. Chen, what do you think of our cooperation like this?" Father Lou asked again.
Chen Weizhe felt an inexplicable pressure in his heart. This didn't sound like a small business, but he always felt that something was wrong, or that he didn't see through it. Because of this, he always felt uneasy in his heart, and naturally he couldn't agree directly.
.
"Mr. Lou, can you give me two days to think about it? I have been feeling unwell recently, so I rest at home. Naturally, I cannot be careless about Mr. Lou's business, I need to go all out."
Father Lou smiled and nodded, "It's okay, but I also have some things that I'm not fully prepared for."
Chen Weizhe breathed a sigh of relief. Now that time is so short, it is really difficult for him to figure it out.
Turning his head, he asked kindly: "I wonder where this little brother is employed?"
When Yi Chuanzong asked himself, he no longer pretended to be thoughtful, but replied with a smile: "I am just an ordinary worker in the steel rolling mill."
Ordinary workers?
Who believes it?
Suddenly, Chen Weizhe had an idea, "From the sound of your accent, you must be from Forty-Nine City, right? It happens that there is also a worker here from there."
"Really, Mr. Chen's business is really big, even people from over there come to seek refuge." Yi Chuanzong said with an undiminished smile.
In fact, he knew that Chen Weizhe was talking about Li Hao, but he was not in a hurry to deal with this person. This was not the Forty-Nine City. What a waste if Li Hao didn't have a backer? It wouldn't be too late to deal with him when he had time.
After chatting for a while, Chen Weizhe couldn't get out any useful information, so he pretended to be unwell and sent Yi Chuanzong and the others away.
Looking at the car going away, Chen Weizhe raised his hand and pressed it on his temples. This pair of father-in-law and son-in-law were really difficult to deal with. He always felt that the two of them were plotting something, but he couldn't think of anything wrong.
On the Chevrolet car moving forward.
