214 Resource exchange?
The printing factory was originally a subsidiary of the base, and did not pursue efficiency. It served the base first and only accepted external orders when it had surplus labor. The leaders had also told them to fully cooperate with Su Taotao's work.
Su Taotao did not need to make this trip in person, but she not only came in person, but also brought products for them to taste. The old factory manager was so pleased that he repeatedly promised to cooperate with their factory's production work and would never lag behind.
After tasting the coconut candy, Director Chen also praised it highly: "It's delicious. I have bad teeth and it tastes especially delicious."
Su Taotao suddenly asked: "Director Chen, have you ordered the Mid-Autumn Festival and year-end benefits?"
Director Chen nodded: "Just the same as in previous years, moon cakes, rice, oil, etc. After all, these are the most practical."
Director Chen is a pragmatic person who cares about his employees and everyone loves him.
Su Taotao smiled and said, "That's a pity. I had been planning to do a resource exchange with Director Chen."
Director Chen was older after all, so his reaction was naturally not as flexible as that of young people: "Resource exchange?"
Seeing that Su Taotao was drinking tea, Xiao Lu cooperated and said, "Our Director Su originally wanted to ask Director Chen if he needed coconut candy as a benefit for employees. If so, we can exchange coconut candy for packaging bags with you, which can save a lot of steps."
Su Taotao nodded and said, "That's what I mean, but since the order has been placed, there's no need to force it. If Director Chen needs it next year, he can contact us in advance. We won't bother Director Chen and will go back first."
Director Chen took another bite of the coconut candy. Doesn't this candy taste much more fragrant than moon cakes?
Moon cakes can still be distributed, and an extra bag of candy can be distributed as welfare to give the workers a surprise, which may make them work more vigorously.
"Please stay, Director Su. It is possible, but I don't have many workers here. If we give everyone a bag of coconut candy to try during the Mid-Autumn Festival, isn't the order quantity too small?"
Su Taotao waved her hands and said, "No, no, big orders or small orders are all good orders for us. Thank you for your patronage of our business."
Su Taotao actually stood up and prepared to leave, but now she sat down again, moved closer to the table, and said mysteriously to the old director:
"I have something to say from the bottom of my heart. During the mid-year meeting, didn't the leader ask me to go to the capital to promote the products? You didn't go to the capital for the meeting this time. You will know when you go.
The flavors of our coconut candies are here. There is no similar type on the market yet, and we can't even finish the orders from our sister companies.
I am mainly worried that the factory will not be able to come up with so much working capital if we expand our production capacity all at once, and I will be embarrassed to hold back your payment for the goods. That's why I came up with this idea. Director Chen, please forgive me."
After hearing this, Director Chen looked at Su Taotao's frank eyes and appreciated her a little more.
"Director Su is really young and promising. I admire him very much. How about this, if you really have problems with capital turnover in the future, I can extend the payment deadline to after the holidays.
Your factory's products have off-seasons and peak seasons. For example, sales will always be better during the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese New Year. There should be no problem with collecting payments, right?"
Su Taotao was waiting for him to say this. This time, she took the initiative to reach out her hand and gently shook hands with Director Chen:
"Thank you, Director Chen, thank you for your support. Don't worry, this kind of thing may not happen. I'm just taking precautions to avoid being asked about the delivery date if something really happens. It would seem that I'm insincere.
Although we are all affiliated factories of the base, brothers still have to settle accounts clearly, isn't that the truth?"
Director Chen nodded continuously: "Yes, yes, that's the truth. Although Director Su is young, he is very reliable and will accomplish great things in the future."
Su Taotao smiled: "Thank you for your kind words. I won't waste your precious time. I'll leave first."
Director Chen wanted to stand up and see the guest off.
Su Taotao stopped him: "Please stay. Don't be so polite to people like you."
Director Chen looked at Su Taotao's back. He had heard some bad rumors about her some time ago, but he only saw the truth and heard the lies.
Only when he personally met this female comrade did he know that she became the director of the factory by her own strength. She was always considering the factory. Those people looked at her with tinted glasses.
Director Chen thought of something and made a phone call, which was answered quickly:
"Hello, Lao Deng, it's me, Lao Chen."
...
"It's like this, didn't you say some time ago that you wanted to change the original candy supplier?"
...
"Yes, yes, I have a very good factory here that I want to introduce to you. Although they are still in the initial stage, I guarantee that they are reliable."
...
"I have samples here. You will know when I give them to you after work. I will tell you in detail then..."
...
Su Taotao certainly didn't know that Director Chen was helping her to attract business.
After finishing three things in the morning, it was already past one o'clock.
She took Xiao Lu to find a hotel nearby, filled her stomach with a bowl of noodles, and prepared to pick up Fu Yuanhang.
When Su Taotao arrived, they had already had lunch. Mr. Tang was probably taking a nap and was not in the living room.
Fu Yuanhang did not have the habit of taking a nap and was still practicing hard.
Old Wu accompanied him while sewing clothes.
Seeing Su Taotao coming so early, Old Wu was a little surprised and stood up to greet her.
Su Taotao smiled and waved her hand, motioning him to sit down.
Fu Yuanhang also thought that Su Taotao would not arrive until three or four o'clock. Seeing her coming at this time, he asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, have you eaten?"
Su Taotao nodded and replied in a low voice: "I have eaten. I have to go back today. I have something to do in the factory in the afternoon. I will take the bus here on Sunday."
Fu Yuanhang nodded: "The teacher is taking a lunch break. I'll leave a note for him."
Fu Yuanhang wrote a note and handed it to Old Wu: "Grandpa Wu, let's go back first and come again on Sunday."
Old Wu could understand lip language, and he held Fu Yuanhang's hand with "uh uh uh".
Fu Yuanhang followed him and turned to Su Taotao and said, "Sister-in-law, please wait a moment."
Su Taotao: "Okay."
After a while, Fu Yuanhang came out helplessly holding a big watermelon:
"Grandpa Wu left it for us, so we must take it back."
Su Taotao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and touched Fu Yuanhang's head and said, "Did you thank Grandpa Wu?"
Fu Yuanhang: "Thank you, I gave him money, but he refused."
Su Taotao said, "It doesn't matter, we will bring him delicious food next time."
Su Taotao walked to Old Wu, looked into his eyes sincerely and said with a smile:
"Thank you, we won't be polite to you, we'll take it away, see you on Sunday."
Old Wu understood, smiled with teeth showing, nodded continuously, and insisted on sending them to the door.
After getting in the car, Xiao Lu drove again, and Su Taotao and Fu Yuanhang sat in the back seat.
"If we don't take such a big watermelon, Teacher Tang and Grandpa Wu won't be able to finish it, and they will have to give it to the neighbors. It's okay to keep it, it's just a matter of reciprocity.
By the way, isn't your birthday on Saturday? I'll make you a cake then, and another one on Sunday, you can bring it over for them to taste."
In fact, Fu Yuanhang looks forward to his birthday every year.
Because in previous years when Fu Yuanhang had his birthday, Zhou Linglan would get up early to make him a bowl of "longevity noodles" with a poached egg, so that he could go to school with a full stomach.
That was also the happiest time of the year for him, happier than the Chinese New Year.
The happiness of the Chinese New Year belongs to everyone, but the happiness of a birthday belongs to him alone.
Su Taotao was thinking about his birthday, and that feeling of happiness came up again.
He smiled and nodded: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Su Taotao touched his head again: "We are a family, why should we be polite?" Fu Yuanhang
nodded, shook his head, but said nothing more.
He just imitated Chen Chen, went to the window, looked at the seagulls flying freely, and smiled shyly.
