Because the agency contract was reached, the three of them were very happy, and the breakfast was also very enjoyable. After breakfast, Jiesheng took them to visit the blank workshop, electroplating workshop, and the mold workshop.
In the mold workshop, Yang Liufang saw the entire production process of toilet and squat toilet blanks for the first time. Hundreds of toilet molds were lined up on the shelf, and workers shuttled between them, repairing the blanks, and performing their duties. He was very touched. One was the advanced production tools, and the other was shocked by the large area of the Jiesheng factory and the number of workers. He secretly vowed that he would build such a large factory in the future.
By the time they finished their visit, the clerk in the factory had drafted the contract and printed it out. Yang Liufang was once again surprised by Jiesheng's work efficiency. He was always with him, and the clerk drafted the contract. After getting the contract, he and Li Tongfu read it carefully, and there was nothing wrong with what they discussed, so they put away the contract and prepared to go back to Xizhou to have it stamped and bring money to pick up the goods.
After hearing their plan, Jiesheng burst into laughter: "Both bosses, this may be your first time doing this kind of bulk purchase business from another place. We don't have to use cash for purchases here long ago, now we all use post office remittance. That's it. Just like sending a registered letter, send the remittance order to our post office, and we can go to the post office to withdraw the money. It just requires some handling fees. That is much less expensive than taking the train here. "
"Ah. Really, I have learned a lesson. What about the goods? What if you don't deliver the goods after we transfer the money?" Yang Liufang said worriedly.
"First, we have a contract, which is legally binding. Besides, I won't run such a big factory; second, we have government supervision and market management departments, as well as future cargo transportation. Our Yiwu government The Southern Alliance and Northern Alliance were established and formed the management norms for trunk logistics. With the government’s backing, you don’t have to worry.”
"Oh I got it."
"If you are really worried, one of you can leave one of you here to watch the goods being loaded onto the truck. You don't have to go to the city to stay in a hotel, you can just stay in our factory. If you go back and send a registered letter, it's only half Months are enough."
The two discussed it, and Yang Liufang turned to Jiesheng and said, "Boss Jiesheng, to be honest, it's our first time doing business, so we are a little worried. After all, there is so much money and goods. In this way, let my brother stay Come down, I have to go back and make some processing arrangements in the factory over there."
"Okay, I'll take you back to the city in a while, check out the hotel, put your luggage in my car and I'll bring it back in the evening."
"Okay, thank you. I happen to be going to pick up the contract for office partition furniture. Then my brother is here to cause trouble for you."
"Since we have cooperated, don't be so polite. When I go to Xizhou to visit you, you have to entertain me, right?" Jiesheng's words narrowed the distance between the three of them, and he laughed happily.
After walking out of the workshop, Yang Liufang took the contract and said goodbye to his brother. Li Tongfu gave his ID card and name stamp to Yang Liufang and asked him to take him back to Xizhou to withdraw money. Yang Liufang took it and put it away, then got into Jiesheng's car and returned to the city. They first went to the small commodity mall and arrived at a store with furniture partitions. Jiesheng greeted the merchant owner warmly.
"Brother Xi, let's do it together when we go back to put together the goods. This way the shipping cost can be reduced."
"Okay, okay! Let's make a fortune together with Boss Yang."
Yang Liufang took the contract handed over by the store owner, read it carefully twice, and thought it was OK, so he said goodbye to the store owner, took the contract and left. Because he had some personal matters, he wanted to buy underwear, so he didn't let Jiesheng go with him anymore. It happened that Jiesheng was going to visit his stall, and the two made an appointment to meet at the stall.
Yang Liufang arrived at the daily necessities department and spent a small amount of money in a clothing store to buy himself a coat and underwear. He also bought the same ones for Li Tongfu, wrapped them up and sent them to Jiesheng's stall, asking him to take them back to his brother. I first went to the hotel to take a shower and put on my underwear. I thought that taking the train would make my new clothes dirty, so I simply wore my old clothes and went to a nearby long-distance station and bought a ticket back to the provincial capital Hangzhou. From there he would take a train to Xizhou.
Three days later, Yang Liufang arrived in Xizhou, just in time for the Lantern Festival. Although spring has already begun, it is still covered in ice and snow, much colder than Yiwu. Yang Liufang felt a gust of cold wind coming out of the train station and shivered. I hurriedly walked out of the station, and saw the fellow Wenzhou man who repaired shoes at the exit. He was sitting in front of the stall wearing a sheepskin coat, shivering, with a complete set of shoe repair tools in front of him, and a mirror and toothpaste next to him. Waiting for the haberdashery. Yang Liufang hurriedly went up to say hello, and the two shook hands and wished each other a happy New Year. He told Yang Liufang that he had not bought a train ticket back to Hangzhou during the Spring Festival, so he simply stayed here. Yang Liufang looked at the cracks in his hands and felt faintly heartbroken. This is the hard-working status quo of Wenzhou merchants in their early days.
"Brother, if you have a lot of money, you can find a suitable store and find a business opportunity. It will be better than this cold and snowy place."
"Alas! It's not that I haven't thought about it, but the transfer fee for the stalls in the wholesale market is too high. Other places where the flow of people are not concentrated are not as good as here."
"Well, you're here early, so take your time to search. Brother, I'll leave you my factory phone number. You can come as a guest when you have time."
"Okay, my brother has opened a factory and has become prosperous. Congratulations! I knew you could do it. You are not afraid of hardship and are down-to-earth."
"Brother, thank you for your hard work. Congratulations on making a fortune in the new year!"
"Well, congratulations on getting rich."
After saying goodbye to his hometown brother, the only heat in Yang Liufang's body was gone, and he felt so cold that all the bones in his body were squeezed together. He hurriedly went to the nearby market to find a light truck and got on it. He didn't even ask the price and just said, "Master, go to the Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative."
The driver who was waiting in the light truck heard that Yang Liufang was speaking Mandarin with a southern accent, and he was going to the supply and marketing cooperative in the north of the city. I suspected that he was the boss of Zhang Feng who used to drive cars together here. Now I am often called by Zhang Feng to go to Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative to buy goods, so I asked: "Does the boss know Zhang Feng from Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"
"I know him. He is the leader of our team."
"Oh, let me tell you! The one who goes to the supply and marketing cooperative with a southern accent must be his boss."
"Hahaha, no, let's do something together. Master, please turn up the heater, it's too cold outside."
"Okay." The driver agreed, immediately turned on the heater to the maximum, and diligently pushed his coat to Yang Liufang.
About half an hour later, they arrived at the Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Although the New Year has just passed, the supply and marketing cooperative is already busy. Yanhua is selling hardware with silver flowers, and Wang Shan, Qin Jiajun and Zhang Feng are talking and laughing together to stock up. Only the furniture hall, which was almost completely cleared out years ago, is now empty and lifeless. Zhang Feng's sharp eyes saw a truck coming. He knew at a glance that it was the truck he was traveling with. He thought it was a big customer, so he went up to meet it and saw that it was Yang Liufang. He quickly shouted inside: "Boss Yang is back."
"Boss Yang. Happy New Year." The busy Qin Jiajun, Yang Liufang and Yanhua all came out to greet them, leaving Yinhua still explaining a piece of hardware to the guests.
"Hello everyone, two brothers. Everyone should be busy with their own business." Yang Liufang greeted everyone and paid the driver. The driver refused to accept anything and Yang Liufang forced him into his car.
"It's the Chinese New Year. The first order of business must be collected. Congratulations on getting rich!"
"Thank you, Boss Yang."
Yang Liufang walked into the sales department with everyone. After Yinhua received the customers, she hurriedly came to say hello: "Boss Yang, you are back."
"Well, sister-in-law Yinhua, are you still used to it?"
"Well, it's good. Thank you and Boss Li for giving me such a good opportunity."
"Hey, you are here to help us! Do your best."
When they arrived at the sales department, Yang Liufang and the others simply bumped heads in the open space of the furniture hall and had a small meeting.
"How's it going? It's all good, right?"
"fine."
"Sister Yanhua, has the money arrived?"
"We're here. I called you. The hotel said they've checked out. I think you must be back."
"Well, that's good. You go get these two contracts stamped by the agency. After stamping, we'll keep one for ourselves and send one to Brother Afu together with the remittance slip.
"Okay, I'll go now."
"Zhang Feng, my brother is waiting for the money to pick up the goods over there. You can drive Yanhua and me to do these things in the afternoon."
"Okay. Chief, I'll go in the afternoon." He answered Yang Liufang while asking for instructions from the Qin Jiajun. Because the two of them were superiors and subordinates in the army, he always maintained the style of the army and still called him the leader of the Qin Jiajun at work.
"Well, let's go. Pay attention to safety, the God of Wealth is sitting in the car." Qin Jiajun also joked.
"Third brother, how about the Building Materials Hall?"
"There are no big orders just after the New Year, but there are still quite a lot of small orders. I just wanted to tell you, look at this year, should we prepare some gifts for the decoration people we cooperate with, and wait for them to come? It means giving a share."
"Okay, you have to think carefully. When Yanhua comes back later, you can discuss the price of the gift with him and let her approve the money for you."
After a while, Yanhua came back with the sealed contract, and Yang Liufang told Yanhua about preparing the gift appropriation. It was almost noon. Because Qin Jiajun was going out to deliver goods in the afternoon, Yang Liufang asked everyone to eat in advance. There were guests in the hardware hall from time to time, and Yinhua couldn't leave, so Wang Shan simply stayed with her and waited for everyone to come back from dinner before the two of them went. This way you can have a hot meal.
Yang Liufang and his four friends went to the beef noodle restaurant at the door to eat noodles. He ordered beef noodles with meat and eggs for everyone. In this cold weather, after eating the steaming beef noodles with garlic, Yang Liufang said that she was completely satisfied. After returning to the supply and marketing cooperative and replacing Yinhua and Wangshan, he asked Yanhua about changing the hardware stall opposite the door.
