At nine o'clock in the morning, the delivery truck arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative. Yang Liufang and Qin Jiajun helped unload the goods. They also unloaded the materials for the counter on the material list they opened yesterday and loaded them onto their own trucks. After unloading, Qin Jiajun let Qin Jiajun He was sent back to the furniture factory along with himself.
Back at the factory, Yang Liufang convened the workers and announced a very important thing: "Brothers, we have our own furniture exhibition venue in Xizhou, so everyone will have to work hard for the next few days. In addition to moving the venue The counter is finished, and some other furniture needs to be made. When the time comes, we will ask Master Qin to bring it back to us."
"Congratulations to Boss Yang!"
"Boss Yang, we listen to you."
"Thank you, brothers. Come on, let's unload the materials first."
Everyone was busy removing the glass, corner guards and aluminum alloy materials from the car. Yang Liufang did not participate in the unloading. With the help of one of the workers, he sorted and marked out the materials for two coffee tables. So that when I make the aluminum counter in the afternoon, the carpenter will still have work to do.
Yang Liufang finished cutting the wood that he had just dotted and scored, removed the woodworking saw blade from the machine saw, and replaced it with a sand wheel cutting blade, preparing to make a counter for his home. The cutting and combination method of aluminum alloy material is different from that of wood mortise and tenon structure or nail structure. It requires cutting feet and seams, then connecting with corner guards, fixing the glass, and then applying glass glue. Wait for 24 hours for the glass glue to completely solidify. The next section of the counter is ready.
After lunch, because Yang Liufang greeted everyone in advance, no one took a break. They put down their bowls and chopsticks and immediately started working on their new work. I was not very skilled in making aluminum alloy counters at first, and I only made a set of three-section counters at night after get off work.
In order to speed up the progress, Yang Liufang arranged for the canteen chef to add extra meals in the evening (the canteen of the furniture factory does not serve meals at night). He asked everyone to work for another three hours after dinner. Today, the families of all the workers in the factory participated in the fund-raising. Seeing Yang Liufang's anxious look, no one complained. After the master prepared dinner, everyone continued to work until nine o'clock.
After a full day's work, Yang Liufang was so tired that his back ached. He hadn't felt this way for a long time. He scrubbed himself with hot water mixed with cold water. When the water was gone, he lay down on the kang and fell asleep. Whenever he feels tired, Yang Liufang is used to sleeping on his stomach. It seems that this can reduce the burden on his back and relieve the fatigue of the day. The next day, I habitually get up according to my biological clock and start a day of heavy work.
Li Tongfu was not idle in Xizhou City. He first went to a company that made light boxes to make signs for the three areas proposed by Yang Liufang. Then creatively, He Wangshan proposed to arrange the furniture in the furniture hall according to the living scene. For example, for a family scene with a living room, a set of sofas, coffee tables, TV cabinets, and dining tables are needed to form a complete living area. In scenes without a living room, a dining table is placed.
"Brother Afu, some families can't even put a dining table in the living room." Yanhua put forward an opinion of her own.
"Well, indeed, gee, it would be nice if the dining table and chairs folded up."
"Folding dining tables and chairs are good. I've seen them before, but they're all made of metal." Wang Shan, who had just sold a few PPR pipes and pipe fittings, also joined in. He has been busy since the building materials arrived yesterday. If you are a decorator, come and buy some plumbing fittings, leak-proofing agent, white cement, etc.
"Well, don't forget to remind me when Al Fang comes to deliver the counters and furniture tomorrow. I'll talk to him and see if our factory can produce this kind of foldable furniture."
"Boss, bring me a small hacksaw and a few saw blades." They were talking about someone coming to the hardware counter to buy something, and Yanhua hurried over to greet them.
In this way, people came and went all day long. Li Tongfu admired Yang Liufang's sensitivity to business. He never expected that his home could be equipped with all the materials for home decoration and work clothes in one stop. As long as they paid the price It's reasonable. I believe no one will go to various stores to buy hardware and building materials at random. They haven't adjusted it in place yet. Once the furniture hall is placed as planned, even the furniture configuration after decoration will be chosen from them.
After lunch, a man with a big belly and a leather bag under his arm approached the building materials hall where Wang Shan was in charge. He first handed over a cigarette.
"Sorry, boss, we can't smoke here, please understand."
"Boss, can I keep some profit if I bring customers here to buy building materials?"
"How much do you want?"
"Customers buy materials for overall home decoration or work equipment, and we only do light work."
"I think there's no problem with this, but please wait a moment. I'll call the general manager and let's discuss it." Wang Shan went over and told Li Tongfu about the guest's request.
"This is the first time I have encountered this, but it is reasonable and unreasonable. Come on, let's see how much he wants to reserve." After hearing this, Li Tongfu walked towards the Building Materials Department while talking to Wang Shan.
"Boss, this is our Mr. Li. You can talk to him about reserving space."
"Boss, we should leave the profit to you, but we should treat all customers equally. We can't raise the price just because people who want to decorate their homes buy their own materials. So I want to know how much you want to set aside?"
The man held up two fingers.
"Two o'clock?"
"Hey, then why should I come to you? I want 20%."
"so many?"
"This is how the bosses here used to operate."
"Oh, that's it. Boss, we really can't give you any extra. To be honest, we have to put all the extra money on the customers. We can't bear it. Even if we give you some from the store's profits, we can also give you a reasonable extra from the customers. , nor can it meet your expectations.”
"Oh, how high can that be?"
"10%."
"It's much less than before. I'm taking a look."
"You can open more ingredients when you open the ingredients!" Li Tongfu just heard Wang Shan say these words, and looked over in horror, and his face suddenly felt hot. Alas, how could Wang Shan give such a bad idea to the person in charge of decoration? However, Li Tongfu himself really didn't want to lose this customer.
"Well, that's okay. Then I or the people I send will bring customers to buy materials in the future, and you can do the same thing."
"Okay, but we have to promise not to betray each other."
"Of course."
When it was about to get off work, the decoration boss actually brought a couple to buy building materials. As agreed in advance, they gave a 2% profit and increased the price by 8%. Then the owner of the decoration company bought more materials, but they didn’t know how much more. Everyone is happy.
"Boss, do you want to buy a car for so many building materials?"
"Use it, don't we need to carry it back?"
"Is there any familiar one? If not, I'll find one for you."
"Look for it."
"Okay. Then bring your list and tell us your address. After we finish the delivery, a driver will deliver it to your door."
"Chengbei Garden Community." The customer wrote the address and handed it over.
"How much is the shipping cost?"
"I'm really sorry. We don't know the distance. How about this? Can you give us 50?" Wang Shan asked tentatively.
"OK."
When it was almost time to get off work, Qin Jiajun came to pick up Yanhua on time. When he saw this shipment, he said it was a loss. If he only transported it without unloading, he would still make money.
"Let's see, Brother Qin, you and Yanhua can discuss it tonight. If it doesn't work, we can just do our own business."
"No need to discuss, I think it's okay. Husband, it seems that the supply and marketing cooperative's business is enough for us. You can still collect another amount of money from loading and unloading for customers."
"Okay, our family is run by a woman, so I'll be here tomorrow."
"If it's not a loss, let's deliver today's goods first." Li Tongfu said and asked him to drive the car to the door of the building materials hall, and the three of them went to load the goods together.
