Chapter 297 Unexpected Gains

"Xiao Su, come here and sit down."

Director Liu was so enthusiastic when he saw her.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't know any of these people, but Zhao Weimin knew them all.

Greet everyone very politely.

"Manager Chen, Manager Zhao, Manager Wang..."

She called out to everyone along the way, and they were all managers. It turned out that she was the only one in the room.

A group of leaders were not sitting down, so she was embarrassed to sit down. She immediately said politely: "Director Liu, I took the train all the way, so I can just stand."

"You little comrade, why are you still being polite to me? Xiao Zhao, quickly move a chair for Xiao Su."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Weimin immediately moved a chair over and enthusiastically asked Su Xiaoxiao to sit down.

Unable to refuse the kind offer, she had to quietly move her chair to the corner, trying to reduce her presence, and then sat down carefully.

"Xiao Su, take a break first. I have something to deal with and I'll finish it right away."

Director Liu smiled at her lovingly. Su Xiaoxiao nodded. Just as she nodded, she heard a bang, which scared her so much that she almost jumped up from her chair.

Zhao Weimin was not surprised and comforted Su Xiaoxiao: "Comrade Su, it's okay, the director is not angry with you."

Su Xiaoxiao glanced over secretly. Wow, Director Liu, is he performing Sichuan Opera face-changing?

He was smiling just now, but now his face was long and his eyes were scanning the managers in front of him seriously.

"Tell me, what's going on with this quarter's sales? Why are they dropping so much?"

As he spoke, he slammed the table and said, "If you don't want to do this, get out of here!"

The general managers of several major department stores who were standing with their heads bowed were so frightened that they dared not breathe.

There is nothing they can do if their performance does not meet the standards. What can they do if the market environment is not good?

"Tell me, what are you all up to? If you don't tell me the truth today, you'll all be sent back to work as salespeople!"

Director Liu's forehead was bulging with veins. None of these things made him worry.

Several managers looked at each other, their eyes watching their noses and their noses watching their hearts, and no one wanted to be the first to stand out.

Director Liu raised his hand irritably: "Zhao Fumin, you speak first."

Zhao Fumin is the general manager of Haining No. 1 Department Store.

Hearing Director Liu's question, he could only bite the bullet and speak: "Director Liu, there's nothing we can do about this. There are more and more individual businesses out there, and their prices are cheaper than ours. There are also some popular goods that we can't find a way to get. We can't get the best-selling ones, and the prices we do have are not as low as others. Isn't this... well..."

Director Liu frowned and looked at the others: "What do you think?"

Several people hurriedly echoed: "Manager Zhao is right."

Director Liu rubbed his brows and said, "If the price is too high, just lower it. If you can't get the goods, just let the purchasing manager run around. Are they just eating for free?"

Several managers looked at each other. Of course they were working hard. Several department store purchasing managers were almost running themselves ragged during this period.

As the general manager of the First Department Store, Zhao Fumin has the most say on this matter.

"Director Liu, we heard there's a mini electric sewing machine on the market that's very popular. Several buyers from our First Department Store have traveled all over the place, but haven't been able to find a source. However, we heard there seems to be a source at Binhe City's Second Department Store, so we're planning to go there in the next couple of days."

Binhe City Second Department Store? Isn't this where Su Xiaoxiao works?

Upon hearing this, Director Liu's gaze immediately fell on Su Xiaoxiao: "Comrade Su, does your department store have a channel for that mini electric sewing machine?"

Su Xiaoxiao was suddenly called out and thought to herself, of course there is, this channel was provided by her.

She immediately stood up from her chair: "Director Liu, our department store does have a supply channel..."

Before he finished speaking, Manager Zhao couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Su, do you know which factory it came from?"

Su Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and was about to speak when a voice interrupted her: "Old Zhao, what can you expect from a little girl? How could a grassroots salesperson like her know such confidential information as the supply channel?"

As the man spoke, he glanced at Su Xiaoxiao with a strong sense of superiority on his face.

Su Xiaoxiao admitted that she was indeed a little inferior among the big guys, but when it came to the procurement channel, she really had to say a few words.

At this time, Zhao Fumin also felt that he was too anxious. Comrade Su was just an ordinary salesperson and it was impossible for him to know such confidential matters.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Su Xiaoxiao speak first: "Manager Zhao, that sewing machine is called an electric mini sewing machine. It was produced by the factory where a distant relative of mine works. I asked my relative to help me with the sewing."

Zhao Fumin swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Wow, this girl seems quiet, but she actually has such a wide network of contacts! Wang Liguo, who had just spoken, looked incredulous: "How can a salesperson like you have such a supply channel?"

They asked everyone for help but couldn't find out the supply channels. He would never believe that a little girl could know that.

I'm afraid he's just making up stories to show off in front of Director Liu?

Su Xiaoxiao touched her nose: "Isn't this a coincidence? I have relatives over there."

Wang Liguo was clearly unconvinced: "Little girl, don't just think about showing off at such a young age. You need to be realistic."

"Leader, I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, I can directly connect with my relatives."

Having said that, Wang Liguo was a little shaken. Could it be that what this little girl said was true?

When Zhao Fumin heard that Su Xiaoxiao was willing to help them connect, he immediately pushed Wang Liguo away and said, "Comrade Su, don't listen to him. If you can help, our First Department Store would like to order 50 electric mini sewing machines. Can you please ask your relative for help?"

"No problem, I'll call my relatives tonight and give you an answer tomorrow."

"Very good!"

Zhao Fumin was so excited that he almost jumped up. He didn't expect that the sewing machine supply channel he had been searching for in vain would actually be right in front of him. That was great!

When the other managers heard that Zhao Fumin had already placed orders for the goods, they immediately became anxious.

"Comrade Su, we at the Third Department Store also want fifty."

"Comrade Su, the Fourth Department Store wants thirty units."

…

Such a good opportunity, what are you waiting for if you don’t seize it quickly?

Wang Liguo was a little hesitant at first, but when he turned around, he saw that everyone had started placing orders, so he immediately joined the crowd.

There were too many people, so Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly took out a pen and paper to take notes. Fortunately, she had the habit of carrying a notebook and pen with her.

After she finished her work and took stock, she found out that she had ordered 360 sewing machines in just a short time and made a fortune.

I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain on this business trip.

Several managers were smiling happily because their orders had arrived, but when they turned around and met Director Liu's gaze, their smiles immediately stopped.
