Chapter 409 Northern Market
Gu Weidong left with full confidence, but compared to him, Lin Yuzhu was not so optimistic. It would be fine if his friend was the boss, but he was just an employee, and even if he had some power, it was impossible for him to make such a big decision.
It would be best if Gu Weidong could succeed this time. After all, their store has been controlled from the source of goods. If it is not resolved, it will become a problem sooner or later.
I hope there will be good news.
…
Gu Weidong was gone for more than twenty days before returning. Compared to the high spirits he had when he set out, he looked as if he had suffered a lot of setbacks when he came back, and he looked very tired.
When he saw her, he forced a helpless smile: "Sister-in-law, you are right. They have already started supplying goods to others."
"Oh?" Although Lin Yuzhu was not surprised to hear the news, she still asked: "Didn't you say before that they were planning to export? Why did they sell it to someone else again?"
“I guess they didn’t expect there would be such a market in China!”
Gu Weidong sighed, "My friend told me that their boss thought that the people in China were poor and that large household appliances couldn't be sold here, so they thought about exporting them.
But I didn’t expect that as I purchased more and more goods, they also saw the domestic market potential.
But although I purchased a lot of goods, it was still far from enough compared to the amount I exported. So when others came to ask if they could supply me, they agreed.
At present, we already have three or four companies purchasing goods from there. The only good thing is that they are all from southern cities, which does not affect our expansion to surrounding areas. "
Lin Yuzhu was relieved when she heard this. "That's good. Since everyone has realized the market for this, it's only a matter of time. Don't worry too much."
But Gu Weidong's face was still very ugly, "I just think I was too conceited. I thought I knew someone in the factory, so I didn't think too much about it!
This time, after listening to my sister-in-law, I found out that those who went there after me all knew that they had signed an exclusive agreement with the factory, which guaranteed that the factory could not supply goods to anyone else in those cities except them.
Fortunately, my sister-in-law reminded me. If it had been any later, Jingcheng would probably have been signed to someone else."
Lin Yuzhu frowned after hearing this, "No way? This is where you first sold it, and you know someone there, why didn't he tell you in advance?"
Gu Weidong shook his head. "Don't blame him. He was on a business trip some time ago and just found out about this. He stopped me after he found out. Even if I didn't want to go, he would have told me. Fortunately, I didn't go too late this time."
Thinking of this, Gu Weidong felt a pang of fear in his heart. What if the capital city was robbed and he couldn't be supplied with goods in the future? What would happen to his five stores?
Fortunately, Lin Yuzhu reminded him, so Gu Weidong was particularly grateful to her now.
"Have you signed the one from Beijing?"
At this point, Gu Weidong finally perked up, "I signed it. Not only the capital, but also the entire north, because of the help of my friend."
Having said this, he finally smiled.
Lin Yuzhu was very satisfied. "That's great. The entire northern market is already quite large. The fact that you were able to sign all of them also proves your ability."
Gu Weidong shook his head and said, "This time it was all thanks to my friend's help. In order to compensate me for what I did before, he argued and helped me convince the person in charge.
But they also set requirements. The northern market is huge, and my current order volume is far from enough. They set a quantity, and the monthly order volume cannot be lower than that number, otherwise they can cancel the contract.
I've calculated, and judging by the current sales of several stores, it's barely acceptable. But this is when the market is not saturated. If it were saturated, these quantities would not be able to be sold at all.
So we will expand to other cities as soon as possible.”
