Chapter 415: The Big Injustice of Working at Your Own Expenses
As soon as Chu Wanghai left, Huang Ling's face turned cold. She called Li Yiming and purchasing manager Xiao Ming to come to the factory.
Since the dual-track pricing system was implemented, vendors of all sizes from all over the country have become very active. Those with quick minds are ahead and are trading goods.
Li Yiming's department store originally stockpiled goods at Huang Ling's request, and then purchased them in proportion. Now the market is changing rapidly, and some products are in short supply, so finding the right source of goods is of paramount importance.
Not long ago, a supplier introduced a coastal electronics manufacturer to Yuesheng.
The other party personally sent some samples to Yuesheng. Since the introducer was reliable, the price was favorable, the product quality was good, and these things happened to be products that their own factory did not make, with the idea of long-term cooperation in the future, Xiao Ming applied for some deposit and prepared to order a batch of goods first to try it out.
He required that the quality and quantity of the products be inspected in person before payment and final pick-up of the goods. If the quality did not meet the requirements, the deposit could be refunded and the order could be cancelled.
Chu Wanghai is a smart man. After meeting Huang Ling at Yuesheng Department Store last time, he actually asked a few good friends to pay attention to matters related to Yuesheng.
Perhaps driven by his intuition as a businessman, he sensed something was amiss while chatting with a friend who frequently traveled between the coast and Suzhou to trade goods. He then shared the news with Huang Ling:
First, the factory does exist, but it is a very new factory. It is said that it has introduced very advanced equipment and has a large output.
Second, the factory owner has extensive connections and overseas relationships.
Third, when someone learned that they had products for sale, they offered a higher price to buy them. In the current economic environment, many bosses who have goods are comparing prices and selling to whoever offers the highest price. At most, they will have to pay back the deposit. However, this factory owner was unwilling to resell the products and said he wanted to keep them for Yuesheng.
There wasn't much information and it seemed normal, but when Huang Ling heard it, she felt the same as Chu Wanghai, that there was something wrong.
Li Yiming and Xiao Ming came over quickly. As soon as they entered the door, Huang Ling asked, "Have you inspected the goods from the coastal area and paid the balance?"
"Not yet. They called to urge people to go for testing. I'm preparing to arrange it." Xiao Ming replied quickly.
Li Yiming subconsciously felt that something was wrong and became nervous.
Hearing Xiao Ming's words, Huang Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No, give them the deposit."
"Okay." Li Yiming and Xiao Ming immediately stood up with their bags and were about to leave.
"Wait, why are you in such a hurry? Do you know what to do?" Huang Ling stopped them.
"I know. The deadline has come. Besides, we are short of funds, so we don't want the deposit." When Xiao Ming heard Huang Ling say that she didn't want a deposit, he thought there was something wrong with the goods and immediately gave a solution.
Normally, this solution is the best.
I won't offend you, nor will I bring trouble upon myself. Even if I lose some deposit, I can afford it as I am big enough.
But Huang Ling raised her chin and motioned them to sit down, and they hurriedly sat back down.
Huang Ling asked again: "What if he says he wants to cooperate with you in the future and insists on giving you goods worth the deposit?"
Li Yiming understood as soon as he heard it. Not only was there something wrong with the goods, but someone was also trying to use this problematic goods to harm him.
"This is directed at our Yuesheng..." Li Yiming's mind raced.
"There's no other way. A tall tree attracts the wind. There will only be more and more incidents like this in the future. You have to deal with it calmly."
Huang Ling reassured Li Yiming and then told the two of them the news.
"I've heard that there have been a lot of people asking weird questions in Yuesheng recently. Maybe we're in the same group as them and are just waiting for something to happen to us!" Li Yiming frowned.
If something happens to Yuesheng Department Store, they can take advantage of that time to open the business, which is a good time.
But these people always overestimate their own abilities. They don’t know that even if something happens to Li Yiming, Yue Sheng will be fine.
With the introduction of a series of economic policies such as reform and opening up and price reform, people have become more and more active. Some people have made some quick money and will expand blindly, forget their original intentions, and become self-righteous.
This has always been the case no matter which dynasty or era, so how could Huang Ling not be prepared?
Huang Ling asked: "Now you know what to do!"
Li Yiming nodded and said:
"I understand. If he insists on sending it to me, I will send it to the relevant department by accident!" Li Yiming said heavily.
Huang Ling was relieved. She asked Xiao Ming to go out first, and then told Li Yiming that she would ask someone to go and see what the situation was at the factory, and it would be best to collect some evidence in case of emergency.
The two men guessed that this was just a temporary factory, and once the goods were delivered, the people, money, and factory would all disappear.
So time has to be quick.
The person invited was of course Chu Wanghai, who was smart and familiar with the area.
Chu Wanghai took on this task yesterday while waiting for the factory office to issue a certificate.
The reward is three hundred.
When Chu Wanghai heard the price, he was speechless. He knocked his knuckles on the table and said to Huang Ling:
"Oh, I have news for you. You asked me for help and then used my own money as compensation. How come you are so calculating, Mr. Huang?"
"All the food, accommodation and travel expenses are on me, okay?" Huang Ling took a step back.
"Of course you paid for it, otherwise I would have to pay for the travel expenses!" Chu Wanghai bit his back teeth so hard that they were about to break.
Huang Ling gave him the money, but he didn't say anything:
"Wait until you get back. Aren't you afraid that I'll deliberately give you false information and make you lose your deposit? Then I'll act as a broker and introduce new customers to that factory."
Huang Ling smiled:
"Don't trust a person you doubt. I trust you. If you really do this, I'll treat that small deposit as a way to get a clear picture of a person. I can afford it, and I think it's worth it."
Chu Wanghai was feeling very moved when he heard Huang Ling continue:
"But you have to pay for what you've done. For example, if you go to learn to drive with a letter of introduction from our factory, and halfway through, I tell the driving school that you're not a good person and our factory has decided not to hire you, so you don't have to learn to drive anymore."
Chu Wanghai looked at Huang Ling and nodded 180 times, then held out his hand and said, "Travel expenses!"
"Didn't you just say you didn't want it and you'd reimburse me when you got back?"
"I think I'll get reimbursed, but I'm not sure if the money will be reimbursed, so I'd better keep it in my hands to be safe. Don't worry, I'll refund you any more, and I won't ask you to pay any less."
"Okay." Huang Ling pushed the money to him.
Chu Wanghai put the money in his pocket and left.
As he walked, he thought about Huang Ling, and suddenly thought of Zhou Huaiyi who saw through him at a glance, and his heart was filled with fear.
The combined intelligence of this couple is probably equivalent to that of everyone in a workshop!
Fortunately, they are a couple. If they were sworn enemies, there would be no grass growing around them!
It's so scary.
If he really wanted to do something bad as he said just now, he felt that Huang Ling would be able to see it.
Absolutely.
Now that she thinks about it, it only took a few words from hearing the news to asking him for help. In fact, Huang Ling had already arranged the next work in her mind.
Although he felt that he was being cheated by her, Chu Wanghai decided to do the job well, not only to repay her, but also to show Huang Ling his strength.
His intuition told him that he could have meat to eat if he followed Huang Ling.
