He Jun didn't speak for a long time, and after a long time he said: "Now that the wise brother knows, the eldest brother has nothing to hide. The business that originally made a lot of money per day can no longer be done!"
"If you can't do it, you can't do it. Although this business can make a lot of money, to be honest, you have to take risks." Zheng Xiaoyu pretended to be generous and comforted him, "Since it can't be done, just make some money from the peace business."
"If that's the case, it would be easy." He Jun sighed, "It's just that it's easy to get on the pirate ship, but it's difficult to get off the pirate ship!"
"Oh? Why is this?" Zheng Xiaoyu pretended to be surprised.
"Well, it's a long story," He Jun said after a few glasses of wine, "I'm even more worried." He wanted to express all his thoughts to others.
Although the "loyal marriage" between him and Zheng Xiaoyu was just an expedient to establish a relationship, after these days of dating, the two had similar temperaments and got along very well, and gradually the lies became real.
"To tell you the truth, my brother and I are also engaged in ancestral business in Huizhou City..."
Although He Jun's "Bai Ling Tang" drug store in Huizhou does not have "Bai Ling", it is still a time-honored brand that has been passed down for three generations. Within the city, "one of the best" cannot be said, but "top ten" can still be said.
When it was passed to He Jun, the Bai Ling Tang was tepid and business continued as usual without any setbacks, but the business did not increase much. According to the old time and space, operations have entered a "bottleneck period."
When doing business, you must first "maintain success" and secondly "exploit". Sail against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. He Jun is a "third generation" who is very crisis-conscious, so after he took over as the shopkeeper, he thought about how to develop new business day and night. It just so happens that there is a Dongtian Medicine Market here in Huizhou, which is a "fierce battle zone" for medicinal materials. The medicine dealers who can survive here, even if they just set up a stall, are all raised by "gu cultivation". He Junkong tried his best, but he could only maintain the old situation here.
At this time, the opportunity came. Someone introduced him to a business, which was "Hearthstone Powder".
"Hearthstone Powder? Isn't this medicine sold everywhere?" Zheng Xiaoyu pretended to be disdainful.
"Brother, that's Wan Chunquan's Hearthstone Powder, so it's useless. But as long as you add ingredients, it's an effective magic medicine..."
"Brother means, this set of Australian medicine..."
"That's right. That's exactly it." He Jun said. This business was introduced to him by Quan Youde, a drug dealer in Boluo. At first, he was just asked to use his own channels to sell "Baozihao" Hearthstone Powder on a consignment basis. Later, the "Baozihao" Hearthstone Powder became a big hit. He was surprised and went to Quan Youde, hoping to give him more products for distribution.
Quan Youde agreed wholeheartedly, but the conditions he proposed were also very harsh. Not only do we have sales targets every month, but we also have to pay first before delivering goods. After setting a certain sales volume for a month, the payment must be given to Jubaotang before the goods can be picked up.
This business was going very smoothly. Although He Jun did not necessarily make a fortune every day, his monthly profits were very considerable. At this time, Quan Youde asked him to meet again and asked him to try to get the prescription list. He also stated that if he could obtain prescription orders, he would be a "partner" and not a "distributor."
"Quan Youde said that if I can get them a prescription, they will give me half of the income. The quota of drugs originally distributed can also be further expanded. Brother Yu thought this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he joined the team. Brother Xian also knows what happened next."
"Now that prescriptions are available, why don't they want them anymore?"
"Then Wan Youde only reasoned that there are too many medicines now and there is no need for new prescriptions for the time being. But after asking a little bit, I found out that their upstream channels were cut off. All the small drug dealers who got their goods from Jubaotang were cut off. !”
"What about brother?" Zheng Xiaoyu asked.
"This month's goods have been delivered in full." He Jun said listlessly, "But what about next month?"
This is indeed a problem. Zheng Xiaoyu knows that the upstream supply was cut off precisely because of Zheng Mingjiang's "unplanned inspection." The result of this inspection must be that Pentium's original supply channels have become nothing but gurgling water. So let alone a small drug dealer, even He Jun may not be able to get the goods next month.
He deliberately pretended to be stupid and said: "Why, Quan Youde has already said that it is out of stock?"
"He didn't say that." He Jun said that a few days ago, Quan Youde summoned Oita sellers and said that there was indeed a problem with the upstream medicine, but the channel was not interrupted and would be restored after a while. Therefore, everyone needs to "overcome the difficulties together". The current meaning is that next month's payment must still be paid on time, but he will not guarantee whether the goods can be delivered on time and in sufficient quantity.
"This is strange. You can't guarantee delivery, but you still need to receive payment in advance? How can there be such a business in the world!" Zheng Xiaoyu said, "If he can't deliver the goods, he will just take the money and run away again." how?"
"Brother is right," He Jun said, "It's just that Wan Youde also said that if he refuses to place an order and pay this time, he won't have to come back to buy more goods in the future. This furnace stone powder will not be supplied to him."
I see! Zheng Xiaoyu thought to himself, no wonder He Jun was in a dilemma. They all knew that continuing to be a sales sub-seller was very risky, but they were unwilling to give up. The profits from this business are probably so huge that I can’t bear to part with this piece of meat!
Zheng Xiaoyu said: "What do you mean by taking the eldest brother?"
"I am different from other people." He Jun said, "If I were also a sub-seller, I would stop doing this business immediately. No matter how big the business is, I have to settle for safety. What's more, this kind of business is inherently risky. If something is wrong, it is naturally the best option. But..." After saying that, he sighed again.
It turned out that Wan Youde had negotiated with him alone, saying that he was now a partner participating in the "sharing", so he could still get the full amount of medicines for the next month, on the condition that he had to pay six months' payment in advance.
"Six months?!" Zheng Xiaoyu was surprised at this time: when there are obvious problems with the delivery, the wholesaler is still required to pay for the goods for six months in advance. This is not business, it is simply robbery. !
"What did eldest brother say?"
"Of course I don't want to." He Jun smiled bitterly, "Brother, I'm not a fool. He promised to deliver the goods in full. Next month, everyone will know whether he is still in Huizhou or not. Who should I go to to get the goods? "
"Exactly, exactly. It's okay not to do this business!"
"Unexpectedly, Wan Youde actually turned his back on me and said that he was going to report me for reselling prescription orders..." He Jun frowned, "It is a heinous crime to say that I was reselling prescription orders. If the Australians find out, they will be copied everywhere. cut."
Zheng Xiaoyu said: "He also has a hand in reselling prescription orders, so he's not afraid of getting himself into trouble?"
"The prescription form was not given directly to him..."
It turns out that although the person who resold the prescription orders was led by Quan Youde, there was another person who delivered the goods and paid the money. It’s simply not as good as Quan Youde’s.
Zheng Xiaoyu made an embarrassed expression: "If he wants to say this, it will indeed be difficult to handle. If it involves..."
"Yes, I am also worried that if he really accuses me, even my brothers will be implicated! Alas, after thinking about it, there is no good way. I can only spit out the money I earned and be done with it. It’s like having an erotic dream!”
Undoubtedly, Zheng Mingjiang's actions in Guangzhou disturbed the originally stable industrial chain. Now, this chain has begun to become chaotic from top to bottom. Judging from Quan Youde's actions, they probably assessed that it was unlikely that they would get the medicine again, so they rushed to "make the last money" in such a hurry.
Not only do you make money, but you also take back all the money from people downstream. This is really vicious. Zheng Xiaoyu has no doubt that many distributors will be fooled by their hard and soft tactics.
But although Wan Youde and his Jubaotang are important, I'm afraid they are not the core figures in this fake medicine case. Zheng Xiaoyu thought to himself, especially Wan Youde, it was almost a semi-public activity. Therefore, not only will the money not be in his hands, he himself should be a chess piece that can be discarded at any time. It may take a lot of effort to find the mastermind behind the scenes.
"In this case, it's okay to spend money to buy peace." Zheng Xiaoyu said, "I'm just unwilling to do so! Alas!"
These words aroused He Jun's anger: "Alas! Speaking of which, I spent a lot of money on the distribution of Hearthstone Powder. Especially all the way to Fujian and Zhejiang, I personally took care of the family. The family went to visit customers, deliver samples, set up stalls... How much work did they do to give these medicines a 'credit'! Now it's better not to give them medicines, not to mention, and they have to directly give us the hard-earned money. take it back!"
Zheng Xiaoyu said deliberately: "Brother, there is no need to be angry. Since he is virtuous and not unkind, don't blame us for being unjust! Think about it, what leverage does he have when you do business with him these days?"
He Jun hesitated and said: "The clue? This Wan Youde is very sneaky. He is always sneaky when he meets us. When I go to see him, even the followers can't come near..."
"It's not necessarily anything specific. Is there anything strange? Did you see any unusual people or things? Even just a few words?" Zheng Xiaoyu followed the instructions.
When he mentioned it like this, He Jun seemed to think of something. He lowered his head and thought carefully for a long time and said: "If you put it this way, there are a few things that I had some impressions about at the time. I don't know if they are useful or not."
"Let's hear it!"
"Wan Youde seems to know Australian 'cadres' like my brother directly." He Jun said, "Once, when I went to see him, tea cups were being put away in the flower hall, and there was a crumpled note on the Eight Immortals table. After putting it away, I glanced at it and saw that the handwriting on the exposed note seemed to be written with an "Australian pen".
"Seriously?!" Zheng Xiaoyu was slightly excited. "Australian pens" are either pens or pencils. Except for elders and naturalized cadres and employees, they are rarely used by ordinary people. "Is the handwriting blue or gray?" of?"
"Seriously! The handwriting is blue." He Jun nodded, "I have seen the handwriting of this Australian pen before."
