"Your task is the most important. This time we have to use your father to help us design a voucher. It needs to be printed beautifully and has anti-counterfeiting. We need the best design and the best master from their printing factory, and we have to do it. To safety and confidentiality.”
Yao Yuan himself felt that it was too shabby to just rely on collecting rags to solve the financial problem. It was not that he had not noticed the bitter faces of the few people in the car, but he still had to save money. Face was worthless in front of money.
In addition to saving money, we also have to solve the financial problem at the root. Lao Ma and the others are right in their eagerness. Time waits for no man. Now that the company has started, it must get on the right track quickly. If you don't have Buddhist thinking, it will kill people.
It won't have much impact if you earn more or less, but now more and more people are tied to Hongqi Company. As the core personnel of the company, a little bit of burnout will be amplified and have a big impact.
Having said that, everything in the company has now been left to those few soldiers, and there is also a wise old horse to help steer the direction. If this goes on, Yao Yuan's influence will become less and less.
Yao Yuan was forced to have no choice but to prove himself. He could only use his brains to find a way. After racking his brains, he came up with his second idea to solve the financial problem.
"The kitchen is crowded, and our 'prepared dishes' are pushed out in advance. We pick out the available varieties and make them first, such as 'Buddha Jumps Over the Wall', 'Braised Shark's Fin', and 'Family Portrait' and other banquet dishes , all are going to be popular, we need to grab this holiday market, the purpose of me creating this voucher is to collect some funds in advance, speed up the construction of the central kitchen, and at the same time, let everyone have a good year together."
Hearing the words 'voucher', Accountant Lao Ma's ears pricked up instinctively.
"After the vouchers are printed, all employees in the company do sales. The sales target customers are major units. Each unit has to pay benefits during the Chinese New Year. Usually there is a lot of chicken, duck and fish. The employees just tell them whether they like it or not. We have to specially purchase transportation, which makes the unit a mess. We sell our vouchers to them at a discount. We will discuss whether it is 30% off or 20% off. The unit buys the vouchers and sends them directly to the employees. The employees can take these vouchers. Use it as cash at any of our stores.”
The voucher thing is still rarely used now, so Yao Yuan had to explain it in detail.
The old horse pondered.
The distribution of welfare by units is now a necessary part of every Chinese New Year. Every unit competes with each other in order to give their employees face at the end of the year.
Every holiday, when a large unit gets off work, a whole box of apples, pears, and most commonly hairtail fish and prawns will be on the back rack of the bicycle coming out of the gate.
The number of items on the back racks of each unit's employees' bicycles has become a subject of competition among the labor unions and labor insurance departments of each unit. At the same time, in order to raise these welfare goods, each unit is inevitably busy at the end of the year.
What to distribute every year is also a problem. Not everyone has access to popular products on the market such as hairtail and prawns. Once these fresh products are obtained, there is also a problem of transportation and storage. Those who have no means can only try to find other things, such as daily necessities, towels, soap, basins and body warmers, etc. But these things are not popular when they are obtained, and employees do not necessarily think well of the company after receiving them.
If there is a way to find those popular goods, the person in charge often has to go to the origin of the goods in person. For example, it is best to go to Jinhai City for seafood. Once you have the goods, you still need to find connections to get good prices and good products. If you make a mistake and the benefits you get back are not bright enough, the person in charge will be scolded by the entire unit for a whole year, and will also have to be severely criticized by the leader.
There should be a market for vouchers. This was Yao Yuan's judgment. Lao Ma knew that this method would work after just a quick listen.
Lao Ma took over Yao Yuan's words: "It's not necessarily just for group purchases. During the holidays, everyone can't go empty-handed with relatives and friends, or even visit leaders. Some occasions are not suitable for carrying boxes of cigarettes, wine, and snacks. There is definitely a market for vouchers in this aspect. !”
Lao Ma ignored the other people in the car and lit another cigarette: "The company's sales of vouchers are actually playing with finance and withdrawing funds in advance. However, the rules must be set in advance, and we must be cautious about this."
Hearing what Lao Ma said, Yao Yuan's face relaxed: "Isn't this a slap on the back of your hand? You are strong in this area. I promise you to come up with a solution in one day. Now the solution is here. Next Shall we just follow your arrangements?"
Qi Lei's eyes also started to move: "Well, let me tell you, we Lingxi will definitely support your treasure hunt activities, and then do you also share a part of your voucher sales with us? We college students are very poor, so we treat it as student aid. We have to have a share, right?”
People with high IQs are more perceptive than ordinary people. Qi Lei is in charge of Lingxi Culture Company and has been working in the mall for half a year. When he heard about the "voucher", he immediately realized the business opportunities and began to compete for his employees. Welfare.
The voucher thing can work. The most important thing is that Hongqi Braised Pork products can be sold. There are some non-staple food stores on the market now, and some state-owned restaurants have also noticed the cooked food market, but the products are too single. The items are all the same: garlic sausage, Harbin red sausage, egg white sausage, then sauced pork knuckles, pig's trotters, sauced beef, and then they're gone.
There is a popular saying nowadays that is "pick up the bowl to eat meat, put down the bowl to curse".
There are two facts mentioned here. With the rapid development of society, some people get rich first and more people are laid off or unemployed. The gap between the rich and the poor begins to appear, and the people are dissatisfied.
The second fact is that people can afford meat and are willing to spend money on it.
Such a big market, how can it be filled with just a few items from the non-staple food shop? There are already some people from the Xian tribe in the vegetable market who are selling kimchi and also making some cooked meats, and the sales are pretty good.
It can be said that it is the right time for Hongqi Braised Pork Shop to enter the market. Every product that has been tasted and shaped by Yao Yuan himself is crushing to these competitors in terms of taste.
The two holidays are coming soon, and every household has to buy cooked food. This is an urgent need. In addition, everyone has tried the newly developed so-called "prepared dishes". From the taste to the pricing, they are all eye-catching. Everyone wanted to get one as a side dish for their own dining table, but unfortunately Yao Yuan kept blocking the sale.
Now it is time to take out the pre-made dishes as the secret weapon. With such a huge product advantage, there is not much resistance to launching this voucher.
With Yao Yuan's usual urination, if he wants to promote this voucher, he will definitely leave enough commission for sales. Since it is full sales, more than 100 college students in Lingxi Company will also get a share of him.
The meeting in the car only discussed these two issues, one was the trash collection plan and the other was selling vouchers.
After finishing talking, everyone seemed to be a little excited for no reason, just like driving a sports car with excellent performance, but the speed limit has been restricted. Now the message from Yao Yuan is that the speed limit has been lifted and you can race like crazy. This feels a bit refreshing.
The party eldest brother drove away and pulled the old horse away. The old horse was meditating all the way, conceiving the whole idea and trying to come up with a feasible plan as soon as possible. New Year's Day was only ten days away. The time was very tight and everything had to be rushed forward.
Yao Yuan took Xie Laozhao'er and wanted to go back to school, but was stopped by Qi Lei: "Xie Zhenhua, wait a moment, we'd better talk about some things. Let's talk now so as not to affect future work."
Xie Laozhaoer stopped and looked at Qi Lei with vigilant eyes. There was nothing to talk about between him and Qi Lei, except Gu Xiaomi.
Yao Yuan was also alert. This was a bit difficult to deal with. It seemed that these two love rivals were going to have a complete showdown. They started fighting and they didn't know who to help.
One side is a best friend, and the other side is a partner. These two people should not have been brought together to do things in the first place.
Qi Lei waved his hand: "Yao Yuan, please go first, let's talk alone."
Looking at Yao Yuan who hesitated, Qi Lei added: "Don't worry, we can't fight."
Qi Lei is a reliable person, much more reliable than Xie Laozhaoer. Seeing Xie Laozhaoer's intention, he also asked him to avoid it first, so Yao Yuan could only go back to the class by himself.
"Before the college entrance examination is over, no one can harass Gu Xiaomi, and no one can affect work because of Gu Xiaomi's existence. This is a gentleman's agreement." Xie Laozhao'er came back within ten minutes and looked at the gossipy face. Yao Yuan didn't hide anything and told everything about the conversation between the two.
"Boring or not, kid!" Yao Yuan defined these two people contemptuously.
Xie Laozhao'er retorted unconvincingly: "Aren't you boring? You are now the public enemy of girls!"
Public enemy of girls?
It’s not unfair at all. I went shopping with my girlfriend, but ended up flirting with the pretty girls I met on the street, and helped push the cart for others in a mean-spirited manner. Such a scumbag deserves not to be treated by girls.
Regarding this, Yao Yuan said he was helpless, but whatever, the uncle also disliked the girls in the class for being too mentally retarded.
Speaking of this topic, for some reason, Yao Yuan's mind came back to the blue Blue Bird and the license plate number: "Ping C". I didn't notice at all that Michelle Xue, the initiator of this incident, did not arrive at school today.
…
I don't know if Lao Ma was influenced by these veterans, or if he was always like this. He is now quite vigorous and resolute, and he took out the regulations for issuing vouchers that afternoon.
Because Yao Yuan no longer has the control of his parents, he can work overtime with him.
"30% off, or 20% off?" Yao Yuan has no objection to anything else. Nonsense, Lao Ma is a professional. He is a cook, so what kind of problems can he find? But regarding the price issue, which was the only issue that required him to make a decision, he started pulling his hair out.
A 30% discount would be enough to attract customers, but it would be a bit distressing to give up a penny of profit to the sales process.
The 20% discount looks good in terms of cost, but I'm worried that customers won't buy it, and the goal of quickly withdrawing funds will not be achieved.
Seeing that his hair was almost bald, he finally remembered Lao Ma who was sitting opposite and drinking tea: "Master Ma, why don't you give me some advice?"
