Chapter 219 On-site Purchasing
After Wang Qiang finished the call, he came to the Wheatfield Bakery again alone.
If he wanted to take revenge, it was not enough for him to just know about this factory. He also had to find out who Xie Yuan was and find the person who had repeatedly attacked him.
When Wang Qiang came to the Wheat Field Bakery again, he did not rush in this time. Instead, he hid in a secluded corner.
He has to wait.
For the whole morning, Wang Qiang watched many people coming in and out of the factory gate.
There are a few people among them who I have seen before.
The factory manager who shouted at me last time, and the guy who was selling sports cars.
Judging from their appearance and attire, the rest of the people were basically workers, so Wang Qiang was not in a hurry to show up.
He waited until about 11 o'clock in the morning, when a figure walked over from not far away and caught Wang Qiang's attention.
The man was well dressed, with shiny leather shoes on his feet and a briefcase tucked under his arm. His eyes were fixed on the gate of the bakery, and it was obvious that he was heading towards the bakery.
After seeing this man, Wang Qiang had a strong premonition that this man was Xie Yuan who had repeatedly caused trouble for them.
Wang Qiang quickly stepped out of the corner and arrived at the door of the bakery one step ahead. Then he stopped and looked inside intently.
He even deliberately blocked the man's way.
The man was about to walk into the door when suddenly someone blocked his way and he almost bumped into him. He immediately felt a little unhappy.
"Hey hey hey~! What are you doing? You're blocking the way, do you know that?" The man spoke rudely and even reached out to pull Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang didn't get angry. He turned around and said with a smile, "Oh, sorry, I was so busy looking inside that I didn't notice there was someone behind me."
"What's so good about a bakery?"
"I say, what exactly do you do?" Seeing Wang Qiang's strange behavior, the man became alert and looked at Wang Qiang and questioned him.
"Actually, I came here to buy bread." Wang Qiang said in a simple voice.
Hearing this, the man looked Wang Qiang up and down carefully and said, "What are you doing standing at someone's doorstep? Go in and buy some bread."
"Comrade, you don't understand the situation. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Our factory needs to purchase a batch of bread to provide welfare for the workers. The quantity required is very large. I heard that there is only one bakery in our county. I just came here to take a look." Wang Qiang lied in a serious manner.
"Brother, you are also in purchasing?" The man was happy to hear that, and then smiled at Wang Qiang.
"Oh, yes. From what you said, you are also in purchasing?" Wang Qiang looked surprised.
"Brother, I'm just the purchasing manager of this bakery." The man smiled and took out a cigarette box from his pocket, opened it and was about to give Wang Qiang a cigarette.
Wang Qiang was quicker, and he pulled out a cigarette case from his pocket: "Have mine, have mine."
The man glanced down and saw the Zhonghua in Wang Qiang's hand, then silently put away the ginseng in his hand.
Wang Qiang handed the other man a cigarette and asked, "What's your name, brother?"
"My name is Xie Yuan. You can refer to me in this factory." Xie Yuan smoked the Zhonghua cigarette given by Wang Qiang and felt the taste of the cigarette.
Zhonghua cigarettes are a scarce commodity with limited supply, and it is difficult for people without connections to buy them even if they have money.
Xie Yuan, who was smoking with his head down, did not notice that when Wang Qiang heard his name, a hint of resentment flashed across his face.
Xie Yuan took two puffs of his cigarette, then looked up at Wang Qiang: "How much bread do you want to buy?"
"There are more than 350 employees in our factory. Each person gets a box of bread, so it must be at least boxes," Wang Qiang said softly.
so much!
There are 20 large loaves of bread in a box, and 350 boxes means 7000 loaves of bread, which is worth more than 2000 yuan.
Since its establishment, Wheatfield Bakery has never received such a large order.
"Brother, let me ask you, what kind of factory is that?" Xie Yuan asked.
"Dongfeng Mechanical and Electrical Plant." Wang Qiang pretended to be proud, but said it lightly.
"The electromechanical plant under the Dongfeng Coal Mine?" Xie Yuan asked in surprise after hearing this.
"Hehe...right." Wang Qiang nodded with a smile, then added, "I'm just an ordinary buyer, doing some errands."
"That's incredible!"
Xie Yuan looked as if he understood: "You are so lucky, brother. I wonder how many people will envy you for your job."
No wonder he can afford to smoke Zhonghua cigarettes. It turns out he is a purchasing agent in a state-owned enterprise.
Seeing that Wang Qiang was about the same age as himself, Xie Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart that it was really frustrating to compare yourself with others.
Not only does he have a stable job, but he is also the lucrative one in the local area. He is so much better off than him.
"It's just so-so..." Wang Qiang smiled with a hint of subtlety.
"I just heard from Brother Xie that you're the purchasing manager for this bakery. I wonder if you have a say in the price negotiation for bread here?" Wang Qiang exhaled a puff of smoke, then winked at Xie Yuan and said, "We're all in purchasing, so you understand some things, right?"
"I understand! I understand very well." Xie Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard that.
"Don't worry, brother. In this factory, what I say is absolutely effective, and I also have a say in bargaining matters." Xie Yuan said hurriedly.
"To be honest, I've roughly checked the price of your bread. It's too expensive. If you could bring it down a bit, then we can talk about this."
"Okay, let's go in and sit down and have a good chat. I promise to satisfy you, brother." Xie Yuan gestured to invite Wang Qiang in.
Wang Qiang didn't hesitate and walked straight into the bakery.
Followed Xie Yuan into Xie Yuan's office.
Xie Yuan was busy pouring water for Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang looked around. It was called an office, but it was actually just a small partitioned room with some tables, chairs and benches simply displayed. It was very simple.
"Come, brother, have some water. I haven't asked for your name yet." Xie Yuan brought a white porcelain teacup to Wang Qiang.
"My name is Liu Ruo." Wang Qiang made up a name.
"Chief Xie, it seems that your factory has stopped production. Is there any problem?" Wang Qiang said deliberately.
"How could that be? Bread is baked and sold right on the spot, one batch at a time. The workers also work for a while and then take a break, and there are breaks every now and then," Xie Yuan explained.
"So that's how it is. I'm just an outsider." Wang Qiang laughed, not feeling embarrassed at all.
"Thank you, brother. Let's talk about the price."
"I know the factory price of bread here is 5 yuan a box, and the wholesale price must be cheaper than this. We are all engaged in purchasing, so I won't test your bottom line. Give me a % discount on this basis, and give me a % commission privately, and I can settle this matter." Wang Qiang picked up the teacup and said softly.
When Xie Yuan heard this, he started to think about it in his mind.
A 4% discount means yuan per box, which is definitely no problem.
If they return the 20% commission to this person, it would be equivalent to a 40% discount, which would still be profitable for their factory.
After calculating the accounts, Xie Yuan also sighed that this person was really greedy. He asked for a 20% commission right away. It was really unfair.
