[This chapter is updated for the leader ‘Green Tea, Mint’]
On the big bed with withered flowers,
Two people are next to each other.
Zuo Xiaoqing grabbed Lin Yi's hand, picked up a finger and bit it gently in his mouth for fun.
"How have you been studying lately?" Lin Yi asked.
"It's good. My brother said to grasp the basics first and then climb to the top, which helped me grasp the key points. Now I feel that the chance of passing the exam is much higher than before." Zuo Xiaoqing said softly.
"You should study hard, but don't worry too much, I will take care of you in the worst case." Lin Yi said with a smile.
Zuo Xiaoqing smiled and moved around to find a more comfortable position.
"Brother, are you still leaving when you come back this time?" Zuo Xiaoqing asked.
"I guess I won't be able to stay for a few days. I have to go out. There are too many things over there." Lin Yi still has many unfinished plans in his heart. It is about to be May, and he only has more than three months left in this world.
certainly,
It's not like I can't come back.
I just feel that time should not be wasted and slacked off.
The next day.
Someone came to Lin Yi's residence early and informed him that District Chief Yang had asked him to come over. Lin Yi did not dare to neglect, so he dressed up and came to the district government.
"District Chief Yang." Lin Yi knocked on the door and said respectfully as he entered.
"Hey Xiao Lin, sit down quickly." District Chief Yang was very enthusiastic and stood up to greet Lin Yi.
The two of them sat down,
District Chief Yang asked: "Have you brought all the orders back?"
"Bring it back."
Before arriving, Lin Yi made a report in the telegram and took out a stack of contracts and information from his bag.
District Chief Yang took it and looked at it carefully.
20,000 pairs of socks.
30,000 towels.
60,000 pieces of short-sleeved shirts.
8,000 toys.
15,000 pieces of hairpins, clothes buttons, hair flowers and other small accessories.
3.5 tons of canned yellow peach, hawthorn and orange fruits.
20,000 bamboo wastebaskets.
200,000 game sticks.
Each product is marked with a number and unit price at a glance. The final total is $233,300.
District Chief Yang nodded with great satisfaction.
"Xiao Lin, you've done a great job. You've worked hard. By the way, I'll hand in the receipts for your business trip and reimburse you in accordance with the regulations. There hasn't been any movement from the other two business managers. Xiao Lin, you have already brought two batches.
order.”
It was he who proposed the Overseas Chinese Friendship Trading Company. If it didn't work in the end, it would be shameful for him. Now, in less than a month, Lin Yi had obtained more than 600,000 US dollars in orders, which was as high as the entire province's entire year.
One-fifth of the export volume was a huge shame for District Chief Yang.
"Xiao Lin, do you have any ideas about these orders?" District Chief Yang asked.
"No, I just hope it can be completed on time with good quality and quantity. It doesn't matter who produces it." Lin Yi expressed his thoughts.
District Chief Yang was very satisfied with Lin Yi's attitude.
"In a moment, there will be a meeting about this order. Dozens of factory directors will come to participate. They are all manufacturers that may be involved in this batch of orders. You will make a speech at the meeting and explain the situation of the order in detail to everyone.
.”
Lin Yi nodded immediately, "Okay, District Chief Yang."
...
District meeting room.
District Mayor Yang, accompanied by several deputy district chiefs, were surrounded by dozens of factory directors from various cities across the province. These were only factory leaders related to orders, and others who did not have orders were not notified at all.
Lin Yi sat next to District Chief Yang.
District Chief Yang said: "Everyone, everyone should know the purpose of today's meeting. First of all, let me introduce you. The person next to me is Comrade Lin Yi. Comrade Lin Yi went to Hong Kong to clear overseas relations. First, he came with a sum of 400,000 yuan.
The order for hardware tools worth US$ 20,000 came back this time, including more than a dozen orders for clothes, towels, socks, toys, etc., with a total price of more than 200,000 US dollars.”
"First of all, we thank Comrade Lin Yi for his efforts."
Hua Hua Hua,
There was a round of applause in the venue.
"This order, after consulting the city and province, is ready to be distributed again to whoever is suitable, but the quality must be guaranteed. This is a requirement to ensure export reputation and is also a requirement of provincial and municipal leaders."
"Next, please ask Comrade Lin Yi to introduce the situation in more detail and if there are any matters that need advice, after all, he understands the customer's requirements better."
Lin Yi spoke, going through the details of the order first, and then said: "The order was signed between the trading company in Hong Kong and other merchants. What I got was the agreement between the Overseas Chinese Friendship Trading Company and the trading company in Hong Kong, so
What you want to supply is Huaqiao Friendship Trading Company, and then Huaqiao Friendship will supply the goods to the Hong Kong company."
"Product quality must be guaranteed. This is the premise. What I want to say is that these orders are just the beginning. With the first order, if the customer is satisfied, subsequent orders will follow one after another. This is a long-term export business that earns foreign exchange. Everyone is happy
Don’t think it’s a one-and-done deal. Foreign businessmen are very picky. If their products are slightly substandard and their credibility is gone, any company will be completely eliminated in the future and there will be no chance of cooperation.”
"Here, I want to talk about two more issues. These are also discussed with District Mayor Yang before. I think it will be beneficial to the future development of various factories, so I want to talk about them."
"The first problem is our products. To be honest, through sales, we can clearly feel that there is indeed a gap between our products and external products. Where is the gap? The main problem is not quality, but the fineness of design, shape, color, etc.
.”
"What do others think of us? The design is ugly, stupid, dark and rough, and the production is not refined."
"This time I brought back some information and some samples from Hong Kong. I would like to ask everyone to take a look at it later. Customers have the final say whether the product is popular or not. Everyone goes there with a critical eye. Natural selection and beautiful
Another good product.”
"It's like choosing a wife. She is equally virtuous, capable of working and having children. Would you rather marry an ugly one or a beautiful one?"
All the factory managers in the audience chuckled.
"The second question is, in our factory, I produce many products and then sell them, that is, I have customers who buy whatever they want. I encounter some problems when I sell them. Customers don't like our products, but they need them.
We don’t have the product.”
"So I think our factory can accept customized product business, such as this little toy in my hand."
Lin Yi said as he picked up the game stick that he had prepared long ago.
"In this box, there are just some sticks. A small box plus twenty or thirty wooden sticks. How much do you think such a thing is worth?"
Pass the game stick,
These factory directors picked it up and looked around, and one person said:
"Isn't this just what children play with picking sticks? It's also very fancy. Foreigners live a delicate life. This thing can be produced in any workshop. If it scales up, I estimate the cost will be only thirty or forty cents."
Another factory director took it over and said, "At most, it's only thirty cents, maybe twenty-five cents."
Lin Yi raised his hand and made a two sign, "Two cents, is there anyone willing to give birth?"
The director of the stationery factory who had approached Lin Yi took it and looked at it, "We can produce it, but we can only say that we will not lose money at the cost price."
Lin Yi smiled, "I said $0.2."
Everyone was shocked, and everyone immediately became excited. 0.2 U.S. dollars, even according to the national exchange rate, 1.8 to one, is nearly 40 cents. This is definitely profitable, and it is still foreign exchange earned. You must know that the exchange rate ratio for exports is different.
Yes, much higher than this exchange rate.
In fact, Lin Yi has already discounted half of this price.
Even so, the $0.2 USD made these factory directors very excited, and each of them expressed their willingness to produce, ensuring that the products would be beautiful and good.
The meeting broke up.
Lin Yi doesn't have the right to decide who to give it to, and I guess District Mayor Yang doesn't have the right to decide. I'm afraid it will be left to the provincial and municipal leaders to decide.
At noon, the leaders stayed at the government cafeteria for a meal, and after chatting with the leaders, Lin Yi returned to Hanzheng Street.
After coming back, he was dragged to a meeting and didn't even have time to take care of his own property. When Li Xiangqian and Jiang Wu saw Lin Yi coming back, they all happily came over to greet them. Lin Yi didn't waste any words and took stock first.
twenty days,
Earned more than 70,000.
After earning space, the wallet is restored to 100,000+ again.
night,
Lin Yi asked his brothers to go out to eat together and have a good time. This time he brought Zuo Xiaoqing with him. When these guys saw Zuo Xiaoqing calling her sister-in-law one by one, Zuo Xiaoqing was very embarrassed.
Jiang Wu brought Yang Doudou with him. Now Jiang Wu and Yang Doudou have officially been in love and have met their parents. At first, Yang Doudou's parents were a little disdainful of Jiang Wu as a self-employed person, but they couldn't stand it.
Yang Doudou's parents were taken away in one trip. The two parties had agreed on a wedding date and planned to get married around November.
Lin Yi and the others were drinking. Yang Doudou and Zuo Xiaoqing sat together and chatted while eating. The atmosphere was very relaxed. Lin Yi liked the feeling of drinking, chatting, bragging and spanking with his brothers, and the woman also accompanied them.
Lin Yi is drinking,
Someone is studying him.
The batch of orders brought by Lin Yi this time were finally distributed after some competition, and some factories were lucky enough to get the orders.
In a private room of another hotel, several factory directors sat together drinking and chatting. The most talked about was this foreign trade order, because everyone present had received a certain share.
Director Lu of the garment factory received a foreign trade order of 60,000 short-sleeved shirts. Why were they all given to him? Because the samples this time were provided by them. If other companies wanted to produce them, they would have to make them again, but Huangshi Second Garment Factory could produce them directly.
, much more efficient.
Director Zhao of the textile factory also got an order for towels. 30,000 towels was nothing for them. If it were other orders, he wouldn't care at all. But this is a foreign trade order and the profit is US dollars. Even if it is only tens of thousands of US dollars, it is extremely
rare.
The same goes for sock factories.
Someone put down their wine glass and said: "It is true that the province and the city have the final say as to who this order will be given to, but it also depends on what the foreign businessmen want. What the foreign businessmen want depends on what the salesman recommends. Lu
The factory director has a good relationship with Manager Xiaolin. Several garment factories brought samples, but in the end they ended up using his family. This is called a relationship."
Director Lu felt proud, but waved his hand to show that it was nothing.
The director of the towel factory and the sock factory was actually glad that he had established a good relationship with Lin Yi before. "Now we have some backlog products and send them to Manager Xiao Lin's stall on Hanzheng Street to sell them. This way we have a cooperative relationship and it is easier to talk."
The directors of several other factories also thought about it, "Should we also find Manager Xiaolin and see if he is willing to sell the backlog of our balloon factory on his behalf?"
"Our stationery factory does have a lot of backlog of pencil erasers. I'll go back and ask Manager Xiaolin."
Director Wan of the metal processing factory didn't say anything. Lin Yi's stall mainly sells clothing and groceries. He makes wrenches and pliers, so he can't let him sell them.
Moreover, at Hanzheng Street, the direction decided by the province is still on light industrial products and daily life miscellaneous products. These hardware tools do not meet the sales standards.
After the wine party, everyone went to the guest house. When they went upstairs, Director Wan called Director Lu to his room. After the two sat down, Director Wan said: "Old Lu, last time we ordered 400,000 yuan in hardware tools, our factory got 10
Thousands of dollars."
"I know that." Director Lu wondered why Lao Wan said this.
"Thank you so much for the help of Director Xiaolin. You, Mr. Lu, Mr. Zhao from the towel factory, and Mr. Lin from the socks factory all have business dealings with Manager Xiaolin. He will definitely think of you in the future, Mr. Liao from the balloon factory and Mr. Liao from the stationery factory."
Zhou is also planning to find Lin Yi to cooperate, but what about me?"
As he spoke, he spread his hands.
"I'm a hardware tool factory, so I can't establish a relationship with Lin Yi. Once this order is over, there will probably be no chance of it later. To be honest, I can see that Lin Yi is a capable person, and I will definitely find more orders in the future.
As long as he favors us a little bit, or gives us a heads up in advance so that we can prepare early, our competitive advantage over other hardware processing factories in the province will be highlighted."
Director Lu naturally understood what Lao Wan said.
This time he was able to take advantage of the fact that he had a relationship with Lin Yi before. Many clothing factory directors could only stare.
"Then what do you want to do?" Director Lu asked Director Wan.
Director Wan frowned, "I just didn't know what to do so I asked you to come. We knew Lin Yi back then but you introduced him. You must know him better than we do."
Director Lu took out a cigarette and each of them lit one.
"How Xiao Lin and I met, I have told you a long time ago. As for the deepening of the relationship later, it was because of Xiao Lin's partner. Xiao Lin's partner's family is from Huangshi. There was something going on at home for a while, and I made a phone call to help solve it.
, and later helped his brother-in-law find a job, and now his brother-in-law is in our factory."
Speaking of which, Director Lu suddenly thought of something,
"By the way, Xiao Lin's partner works as a nurse at Lubei District Hospital in the city. Isn't Director Li there very close to you? If you call him and ask him to take care of him, it will naturally reach Xiao Lin's ears.
Men, pillow style is more important than anything else, especially those like them who are not yet married." Director Lu said with a smile.
Director Wan's eyes lit up.
This is indeed a good idea.
He and the director of Lubei District Hospital were once comrades-in-arms and had a close relationship. Taking care of a nurse was not a simple task.
...
Lin Yi and his brothers had a great time drinking and were already a little tipsy. Zuo Xiaoqing was carrying him on his bicycle. Lin Yi put his arms around the woman's waist and pressed his face against her back. The early summer evening breeze blew and the willows on the roadside swayed.
, I feel so uncomfortable.
He likes such a simple pace of life.
This is called life.
back home,
Zuo Xiaoqing washed Lin Yi's towel with hot water and wiped his face gently. Lin Yi looked at the woman's beautiful and youthful face, grabbed her waist, turned around and pressed the woman underneath.
