Fifty thousand units? That's a very good demand, enough to fully support home delivery.
"That's great. Then let's talk about prices and varieties now," said the manager of the grain and oil factory, pulling out the factory's product catalog and price list.
Zhang Liunian took it and flipped through it for a while. It not only contained the products he used to sell but also new ones he hadn't seen before.
Pengcheng is indeed the vanguard of the domestic business community, possessing the most products and the most complete variety in the country.
And the prices were not high. Zhang Liunian secretly compared them with prices in the provincial capital and found them to be slightly cheaper.
"I want all the products listed, and I can accept the prices, but I'd like the factory to provide oil bottles for free. I don't know if the manager can accept this." Most of the oil he sold at the department store was bulk. This type of oil consumed a lot of bottles daily. If the grain and oil factory could be responsible for the bottles, it would save him some trouble and money.
Seeing how straightforward he was, the grain and oil factory manager hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Finally, the two reached a cooperation agreement on the spot. Zhang Liunian asked them to deliver that day, and he would bring the money to pay for the goods. The contract was also signed.
After obtaining the long-term supply contract, Zhang Liunian went to call Group Leader Gu, but first received the news that the department store had been sealed off by others.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Liunian sat in the phone booth contemplating how to unseal the department store. The provincial capital was not like Nancheng. In Nancheng, he still had Uncle Yan, but in the provincial capital, he truly had no one.
His original base was not in the provincial capital, but in the capital. For the provincial capital, Pengcheng, his products had coverage, and there were subsidiaries, but he could only come here for a short time throughout the year.
So the provincial capital...
Wait, he seemed to have a way.
Zhang Liunian suddenly thought of someone. With the idea in mind, he got up and took Zhang Qian to the electronics factory again to order large appliances like televisions and tape recorders.
This time it was also very smooth. Zhang Liunian and Zhang Qian came out of the electronics factory beaming.
"Brother Liunian, should we get a couple of TVs to watch too?" Zhang Qian felt the world had opened up a lot seeing rows of televisions and tape recorders in the factory, and he also developed some interest in televisions.
Speaking of which, they hardly ever watched TV in Zhangjia Village. Television was also a very rare item in the village.
"Yes, I'll give each of you one when the New Year comes." Seeing his desire for a TV, Zhang Liunian immediately said he could send them one.
Zhang Qian immediately waved his hand, "No need, I can afford to buy it myself."
Since he started working with Zhang Liunian, his salary had been increasing, and he now earned over four hundred yuan a month.
By the end of the year, he would probably be able to buy a TV. However, he remembered that Brother Liunian had said that if he had money, he would let them buy houses.
So his original plan was to buy a house.
"It's not that everyone gets one. Only those who perform well, like you, Ziteng, Grandpa Tang, Ziping, and others will get them. Others will at most receive bonuses." Zhang Liunian had quite a few employees now, so he couldn't give everyone a TV.
"This is too extravagant."
"Take it if I give it to you. It shows you're doing well."
"..."
In the blink of an eye, it was evening. Zhang Liunian, dressed properly, bid farewell to his wife and found Kang Dafu. He went to the entrance of the Pengcheng Hotel to personally welcome the nearly a hundred factory owners who were about to arrive.
"I've notified one hundred and one factory owners, and they should all come. There are big and small factories among them. You can cooperate with whichever factory you want. The dinner table later will be a good opportunity, so grasp it well." Kang Dafu stood outside the hotel with Zhang Liunian and reminded him in a low voice.
Zhang Liunian glanced at Kang Dafu's assistant and said, "Thank you for your help, Brother Kang. I'll treat your whole family to a good meal tomorrow."
"Let's wait until you've accomplished this before treating me!" Kang Dafu's expression stiffened when he heard Zhang Liunian call him brother, especially thinking about what his wife had said. He felt even more awkward.
"With your help, this matter will surely succeed." Zhang Liunian felt this matter had a high chance of success, after all, he was bringing money to purchase goods, and no one would refuse money.
The reason for finding Kang Dafu was first to reconnect and become friends, and second to quickly reach cooperation and return to the provincial capital to take charge.
Therefore, he was confident about the cooperation at the dinner tonight.
"Ahem, how old are you this year? Are you married?" Kang Dafu also felt that reaching these cooperation agreements tonight wouldn't be difficult, as it was a business of bringing money, and who would refuse? Then he asked about Zhang Liunian's life events.
Zhang Liunian was stunned and didn't react, "What do you mean?"
As he said this, he suddenly remembered that Kang Dafu's daughter, Kang Baozhu, was also around twenty years old, about his age.
In his previous life, this guy had always wanted him to marry Kang Baozhu. Repeating life, he couldn't escape it?
Kang Dafu rubbed his nose awkwardly, "It's nothing, it's just that I have a daughter of marriageable age..."
"I'm married? I have a wife and a daughter," Zhang Liunian interrupted him before he could finish.
"You're married?" Kang Dafu exclaimed instantly.
"Yes, my daughter is almost six years old."
"..."
Kang Dafu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "So you're already married. It's good that you're married!"
This way, he wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.
However, Zhang Liunian was a really good young man, what a pity, what a pity.
"Oh! You even have Boss Kang personally welcoming you. This is the first time. This is the Boss Zhang you mentioned, pleased to meet you, pleased to meet you."
As the two finished speaking, a group of factory owners appeared. The leader stepped forward with a smile and greeted them proactively.
"That's right, this is Boss Zhang who wants to give you money. Don't be too harsh."
Kang Dafu's words meant that they should not overcharge.
Everyone understood, and so did Zhang Liunian.
"Don't worry, Boss Zhang looks young, but he's a sensible person. How dare we do that? If we did, wouldn't you be the first to stand up for him?"
"You said it yourself. If I find out later that you're not giving a good price, I won't hang out with you." Kang Dafu patted his hand, seemingly joking.
"Alas, are we brothers, to pit me like this and then be fickle?"
"Stop joking. Everyone, let's go in quickly. It will start soon."
After saying this, Kang Dafu led everyone to the second floor.
Upon arriving at the second floor, Kang Dafu began to introduce Zhang Liunian to the factory owners present and the types of factories they ran, one by one.
Zhang Liunian noted them down one by one and greeted them. Before they could go into deeper conversation, several more waves of factory owners arrived, with the same self-introductions and getting acquainted.
Kang Dafu accompanied Zhang Liunian to meet them throughout the process, acting diligently, like taking his son.
