Seeing Tang Xiaolong so happy, Ye Beiping couldn't help but pour cold water on his enthusiasm.
"Xiaolong, don't be too happy yet. Our market share in Hangzhou is getting smaller and smaller. We still need to vigorously develop markets in other cities. We need to sell the goods in the warehouse as soon as possible."
“I asked Brother Jiang Hai to contact two state-owned factories in Wencheng. They might come to inspect the factory in about two weeks. We’ll definitely need to prepare the payment by then. So you need to work hard too. At the very least, half of the task will be on your shoulders.”
Feeling the pressure, Tang Xiaolong's initially happy mood instantly plummeted.
Some work in other cities is progressing smoothly, but it's not easy to find reliable people right away.
But with his youthful spirit, he patted his chest and said, "Brother Beiping, don't worry, leave all of this to me, there won't be any problems."
Zhou Xiaomei, who was standing next to her, wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, she kept quiet.
These are all matters concerning Ye Beiping's team. As an outsider, she shouldn't get too involved, so she could only tell her silly son when she got back.
...
And so, Ye Beiping's chain store plan proceeded in full swing.
The samples from Qiaosi Garment Factory were ready. They brought over samples for Ye Beiping to see, and after confirmation, mass production began.
The five chain stores are also undergoing renovations.
Peng Tian and Luo Yonghao had been constantly expanding the market for nearly half a month. After Peng Yuhuai had investigated the matter thoroughly, he even talked to the two of them.
They also began to change their business model.
The business license and other permits have all been obtained.
Peng Tian felt that this development was too slow and his costs were too high. If he followed the profit-sharing model, he would definitely lose money. So he did not listen to Peng Yuhuai and continued to do things his own way.
Luo Yonghao had some concerns, but nothing happened in the past two weeks, so he stopped mentioning Peng Yuhuai's advice.
The two were completely blinded by money.
Today happens to be the day that the two brothers, Jiang Hai and Jiang He, are going out.
It was also three days before the chain store was scheduled to open.
A group of people went to the entrance of the detention center in the upper district and waited.
After repeated reminders from the prison guards, Jiang Hai and Jiang He finally saw the world outside the detention center. They took a deep breath and saw the endless fields, which made them feel much better.
"Brother, do you think we should still work with Beiping?" Jiang He had been discussing this matter with his brother for some time.
It was thanks to Ye Beiping's arrangement with Zhou Xiaomei that the two brothers were put together.
Jiang Hai frowned upon hearing this: "Why wouldn't we do it? We came in because we lost our temper and started fighting. What does it have to do with Beiping?"
That's what he said, but he still had some worries in his heart.
I have no idea what's going on outside while my brother and I have been inside for the past two weeks.
Ye Beiping only came to see me when I was at the police station. It's been half a month, and no one has come to see me since.
I'm a little worried that something might have happened to Ye Beiping.
As the two of them walked out and looked around, they noticed a group of people smoking nearby.
Upon closer inspection, Jiang Hai realized it was Ye Beiping, Tang Xiaolong, Hou Baolin, and Wu Di. Jiang Hai immediately smiled; he was happy that someone had come to pick him up, and called out, "Beiping, Xiaolong, Baolin, Wu Di."
Hearing the shout, the four of them turned around and saw that it was the Jiang brothers. They immediately smiled and gave each other a big hug.
"Jiang Hai, Jiang He, it's good that you're out," Ye Beiping said with a smile.
"Um."
Jiang Hai released Ye Beiping and immediately asked, "Has anything been happening outside lately?"
Upon hearing this, the four of them pursed their lips and did not discuss the matter further.
Tang Xiaolong changed the subject: "Let's find a place to take a shower first, then have a good meal. We'll drink until we drop tonight."
As for the fact that our market share in Hangzhou has been shrinking recently, I don't want the two of them to know about it for the time being.
Previously, we could sell 30,000 to 40,000 pairs of shoes a month, but now we only sell a few thousand pairs every two weeks.
It was Tang Xiaolong who was very effective, promoting the product in other cities. Even Zhou Xiaomei's persuasion was useless; he poured all the money he had earned into those other cities.
That's how they managed to sell half of the goods in the warehouse.
Ye Beiping was thus given a respite and was able to pay the remaining balance to Qiaosi Garment Factory.
Now we're just waiting for Jiang Hai to come out so we can get back the 45,000 yuan we had before, which will be enough to pay for the goods in Wencheng.
"Yes, let's take a shower first, and then have something good to eat," Ye Beiping chimed in.
Although Jiang Hai didn't ask any further questions, he knew that the situation was probably not good. If it were good, the four of them wouldn't have kept quiet about it.
Once on the bus, Jiang Hai said to Ye Beiping, "Beiping, I'll go to the bank tomorrow to withdraw the 45,000 yuan from before and give it to you."
Unexpectedly, Ye Beiping shook his head.
"No need, Brother Jiang Hai, you can keep this money for now. I'll give you some more to settle the payment for the goods in Wencheng. We'll then notify them to come to Hangzhou in three days. We'll have time then."
"Three days later?" Jiang Hai frowned.
Given how bad the situation is, do we still need people from Wencheng to come over?
Jiang Hai didn't know why Ye Beiping said that, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just sat on the bus, listening to Jiang He brag about what it was like in the detention center, while he himself looked at the fields that kept receding and felt a little complicated.
I couldn't help but think of what Jiang He said when he came out: "Brother, why are we still following Beiping?"
