Chapter 37 ? Frosting is out of stock (Part 1)
Buzhengfang, Du family.
Changsun Chong was resentful and sweet with a fruity lollipop on his face, staring at Du He who was writing and drawing: "Erlang, have you heard me speak?"
Du He bit the pen and responded indifferently: "I heard that, isn't your father not optimistic about the prospect of frosting? It's no big deal. In three days, let's talk with the facts."
What is this answer? Have you heard what I said?
I told you that my father is not good at frosting business. My father is a dignified uncle. My father has walked more salt than the rice you have eaten. Even he is not optimistic about the business. What hope does he have?
Changsun Chong collapsed at that time, and came to Du He's table in two steps, supporting the table with both hands: "Du, He, are you trying to break the jar? Three days later, three days later, we can't sell the frosting, so we'll be slapped in the face."
Du He sighed and put the pen on the pen holder: "Changsun Chong, can you tell me what you want to do? What is the purpose of telling me about these things? Isn't it because I want to ask for comfort, right?"
"I..." Changsun Chong almost spit out his old blood. It turned out that he had said for a long time. He didn't know what he meant, so he said it in vain.
"Erlang, Erlang, I'm my brother beg you, what do you think about can you tell me if you can have a solid understanding of your brother? At least I can understand if I die."
"What you said is to understand, why do you just die? We just sell frosting. Even if the business is not good, you won't lose money." Du He was as peaceful as an old dog, looking at Changsun Chong: "So, be calm, even if you really want to die, you will have the backbone to die. Don't underestimate it."
grass!
This guy has no way to communicate!
Changsun Chong held his hands behind his back, and turned around like a donkey for seven or eight times. When he turned his head, he found that Du He had written there again, looking serious, as if he was writing an eulogy for heaven.
Forget it, today I will pretend that I have never been here. Changsun Chong was so angry that he shook his sleeves and turned around and left.
As soon as I walked to the door of Du He's courtyard, someone's very hateful voice came from behind me: "Roar forward, don't rush to leave. Let's take a look at the contract I wrote later to see if there are any loopholes."
"What contract? A contract for sale?" Changsun Chong curled his lips: "My second brother Du, we are about to pay all the money, okay? I'll write a nonsense contract."
Du He shook his head: "Why do others say it is someone else's business? Your old man's judgment is certainly his own, but you should also have your own judgment. You are the eldest son of the Changsun family and want to inherit the family business in the future. You can't believe whatever others say. Changsun Chong, your father should have told you this?"
"How do you know?" Changsun Chong became fascinated in an instant.
This was what the old man said last night when he talked to him about the frosting business.
The old man means that I have given you an opinion, you can listen or not. As the future heir of the Changsun family, you should have your own judgment and the courage to take on everything.
After making a choice, you must go on unswervingly, no matter whether it is right or wrong.
When he said this, there were not even a maid or servant around him, and the housekeeper was not there. How could Du He know?
"I said I guess you definitely don't believe it." Du He spread his hands: "But this is a fact. In fact, you don't have to consider the intermediate process at all, because it is just a means, and the ultimate goal is actually the fundamental.
For example, your father, what does your father care about the most? Apart from national affairs, what he really cares about is the future of the Changsun family, and you, Changsun Chong, represent the future of the Changsun family.
So, no matter what your father says or does, he is actually cultivating you. It’s like when you can come this time in the frosting business today, your father didn’t forcefully stop it. This is enough to show that he wants to teach you a lesson or wants you to learn something from it.”
Du He said something a little vaguely, but Changsun Chong understood it first and murmured, "You, are you thinking about my father all day long?"
Du He's face turned dark: "I'm thinking about what your father is doing, Changsun Chong, do you understand what I'm talking about? I said that the process is just a means, and the purpose is the foundation. Whether it's your father, Cheng Chumo's father, and my son who has already traveled to the West, they actually care about the same things!"
Well, Changsun Chong understood this time, it turned out that this was what he meant. This scared me and all the white hair sweat came out.
"So, come and see this new contract. After reading it, let me tell you what you think." Du He rolled his eyes angrily. Changsun Chong is really unpopular.
Changsun Chong didn't say anything this time, he came back honestly and picked up the contract that Moji had not done yet.
"Agent Contract", Party A: Datang Sugar Co., Ltd., Party B: XXX..., Party A's responsibilities and obligations, Party B..., delivery method, payment method..., rebate..."
Halfway through reading, Changsun Chong was full of excitement: "Du He, how did your brain grow? The Ten Dadao of the Tang Dynasty, the General Agents of the Ten Frosted Frostings, doesn't this mean that we just need to sell the frostings to ten Frostings? There is no need to worry about transportation and opening a store at all."
Du He looked at Changsun Chong with contempt: "Be calm, after all, you are the future Duke of Zhao, the helmsman of the Changsun family. You are so excited about an agency contract, and you are useless."
Changsun Chong seemed not to hear Du He's sarcasm, and said with a contract, "Tsk tsk, it's really good. The old man was worried that we had too much investment when we were selling goods in the early stage, and we were renting houses and hiring personnel. Now that your agency contract is issued, I see what the old man will say."
Du He curled his lips, and his heart did not feel the joy of Wen Zhuan Gong again.
Well..., I can't say that there is no joy. It's really because the agent's routine is too common in later generations and is not worth having fun at all.
Knocking on the table: "I said have you finished reading it? I took it over after reading it. I haven't finished writing it yet."
"Oh, yes..." Changsun slapped his forehead, and came up with a look of beating on his face, turned the contract to the last page and put it on the table: "Write it for you, write it, write it quickly!"
Du He picked up the pen and planned it for a long time, but was unable to let it go. He turned his head to look at his Changsun Chong and said, "You have nothing to do, right? If you have nothing to do, go and ask your manager to write an invitation. It is said that in three days, Datang Sugar Production will be officially opened. He sincerely invites all knowledgeable people in Chang'an to come to discuss cooperation matters."
The so-called "your family manager" refers to Sun Qingzhi, general manager of Datang Sugar Co., Ltd., who was previously a manager of the Changsun family. After the shop in the West City Bureau was "rented", he was driven to the shelves because no one was responsible for the decoration. As a result, after the shop was renovated, the person became the general manager.
However, in Sun Qingzhi's opinion, this general manager is far less prosperous than doing business in Changsun's house before.
Thinking back to the beginning, I had dozens of people under my subordinates, and I had two or three stagnants of money every month. I didn’t want to go out and report to my house, and I would immediately see countless flattering eyes.
But now, when I go out, I sign up for the registration number: I am the general manager of a certain company.
The opposite side was confused and timid.
General manager?
What is the general manager?
Oh, it's the shopkeeper?
It's embarrassing, I'm going back to life.
In the past, the acquaintances at home looked at me with a strange look.
Of course, if you just do this, it would be fine. After all, you are a shopkeeper and you can manage seven or eight people at least.
But the question is, what the hell is the link between wages and sales?
For every pound of frosting you sell, you will get two cents of labor.
Damn, what can two cents do?
In the past, when I was a manager, I had at least five jin of money every month. Now if I want to reach this amount, I have to sell at least two thousand five hundred kilograms of frosting every month.
How could it be sold so many things that cost 500 pounds per pound every month?
...
On the second day of October, the opening of Datang Sugar Co., Ltd.
Although Sun Qingzhi, who was deeply resentful, had to force himself to cheer up, hold up a smile, and welcome all the dandy players in the capital one by one.
They are all people of the same level as their eldest son. They can determine their life and death with just one word, and they can't afford to offend them.
Fortunately, these "big guys" would not talk to managers like him. They said hello and nodded, and then went to the lounge that was specially vacant behind.
In the lounge, Du He came first, followed by Du An and Erwa. The two guys stood seriously with more than ten "Agent Contracts" in their arms, with a stellar attitude and quite... funny.
Beside Du He, Changsun Chong, Tang Heshang, Liu Renshi and other playboys were full of confusion and stubbornly listened to the movements in front of him. The tea on the table had already cooled down, but no one touched him.
Today is the day when the sugar-making company is open. The preparations that should be made in the early stage are almost done. How many people can come and how much frosting can be sold will be announced today.
Like all young people, playboys also have the desire to express themselves in front of their elders. If they succeed this time, not to mention how much they will have to say at home in the future. Just bragging and tying is enough to brag for a while.
But the premise of all this is that frosting must be sold at a good price, otherwise... it will be nonsense.
As time passed by little by little, it became lively outside. Brother Zhang, Brother Wang and Brother Li said hello incessantly.
Those who can come here today are all well-known merchants in Chang'an City, and even a few Hu merchants from the Western Regions, speaking crappy plastic official language and greetings with everyone, which sounds a bit different.
These people have seen some worlds more or less, but after entering the room with the "conference room" hanging, they are still stunned by the decoration inside.
I saw a very huge long table in the middle of the room. Around the table were chairs that were very popular nowadays. On the table corresponding to each chair, there were small cards with names written on it.
Just as everyone looked at each other and shouldn't do anything, General Manager Sun Qingzhi smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. The reason for this arrangement is because the despise of the boss thinks that this can be more fair. There is no distinction between the main and the second. Please sit according to the name."
It turned out that, everyone suddenly realized and showed admiration. Those who knew Sun Qingzhi before took the opportunity to say, "Manager Sun, is the eldest son of the eldest son of the grandson? I wonder if we are destined to be with the Lord Gui Yiwu today?"
"About despised owner, please keep an eye on your business." Sun Qingzhi smiled and said, "However, our company has invited a distinguished guest today. This distinguished guest will introduce the specific business model of our company to you later."
Everyone who had already sat down couldn't help but wonder, wasn't Sun Qingzhi from the Changsun family? When did they change their boss?
At this moment, Du He, dressed in white, walked out with two followers, stood at the end of the long table, signaling Du An and Erwa to post the "Agent Contract" in their hands, and said with a smile: "Du He is here."
Du He?
Du He, the two-time master?
Du He, the second son of the late Shangshu Zuo Pushe Du Ruhui's family?
Du He was in the limelight during this period, and it was almost the trend of being the first in the young generation. Unexpectedly, it would appear here.
"We will see the second young master."
"We have seen the Shuang Jue Young Master."
The merchants were flattered and stood up to salute.
Du He smiled slightly: "Everyone doesn't have to be so polite. I believe that after today, many people will become partners of Datang Sugar Production Co., Ltd., which is not good to be so disgusting."
"Haha..., I borrow the words of the second young master." The merchants were haha, and they couldn't help but secretly guess the background of the Tang Dynasty's candy making.
Du He pressed his hand down, and when the merchants calmed down, he said: "I have only one purpose today, that is, to tell you about the business mechanism of Datang sugar making.
First of all, Datang candy will not have a retail business, that is, whether it is Chang'an City, Gyeonggi Province, or even the entire Datang, there will never be any situation where Datang candy candy products to individual customers.
Secondly, Datang Sugar Manufacturing will select fifteen partners to cooperate, and these fifteen merchants are responsible for the sugar sale business. As for how these fifteen merchants sell, whether to continue looking for the next one or participate in retail by themselves, Datang Sugar Manufacturing will not interfere.
Finally, these fifteen partners will be divided according to the Ten Datang Roads, each of which will set up a general agent, and the other five will become overseas general agents.
Therefore, merchants who cooperate with Datang Candy can rest assured that as long as you are qualified to cooperate, you will immediately obtain exclusive management rights. In the one you are responsible for, there will never be a second merchant competing with you. Datang Candy will write this article into the contract, and everyone will jointly accept the supervision of the Tang Dynasty's laws."
The merchants who came today just wanted to explore the foundation of Datang sugar making. They never thought there would be such generous cooperation conditions. After listening to Du He's introduction, they almost doubted whether they had heard it wrong. Until they found that everyone had the same expression, they realized that the opportunity to get rich was here.
But, is all this true? Is there no other conditions for making sugar in Datang?
