071 Get the Button Factory
"Come in."
A cold female voice came from the office.
Gao Qinghe blinked in surprise and pushed the door open and walked in.
Looking up, I saw a thin figure with his hair in a bun and wearing a gray plaid suit sitting in front of the desk behind the window.
This is a woman around fifty years old.
Before seeing her face, Gao Qinghe had already imagined from the cold voice that it should be a serious face like that of a headmaster.
"Gao Qinghe?"
She turned around, holding a box of buttons in her hand, and it took her a while to shift her gaze from the buttons to herself.
Gao Qinghe clearly felt that there was disgust towards him in her eyes.
Maybe she dressed too fancy?
Gao Qinghe shrugged lightly, smiled, stepped forward, and extended his hand. "Hello, Director Lu, I'm Gao Qinghe. You can call me Xiao Gao or Qinghe."
Director Lu did not shake hands with her, but just nodded and returned to his seat with a box of buttons.
"Please sit down. Is that you, Boss Jiang?"
Gao Qinghe looked around and found a set of sofas for guests in the office.
But that place is too far from Director Lu’s desk.
Her eyes flashed, and she walked to the coffee table, brought over a single soft chair, and sat opposite Director Lu.
"Jiang Baohai and I are in a relationship and we are boyfriend and girlfriend." Gao Qinghe introduced frankly.
Director Lu curled his lips, looking down on this kind of relationship.
But still considering the other party's face, he asked Gao Qinghe what he wanted to see him for.
There was not much time left, so Gao Qinghe didn't waste any time and directly handed over the newspaper page he had cut out.
At the same time, he expressed his desire to become a sales agent for a button factory.
"There aren't many opportunities like this right now, and the factory managers in other districts are definitely aware of the current situation at state-owned factories. Either their products aren't keeping up with the times, or they can't sell the products they produce."
"I've seen the buttons produced by your factory. The quality is very good and the styles are very novel. As long as the market is opened, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them."
"I want to cooperate with the factory. The factory will be responsible for supplying the goods, and I will be responsible for selling them. I don't want a salary, just a 10% commission from the sales."
After saying that, Gao Qinghe looked at Director Lu confidently, observing her reaction.
The other party was still reading the contents of the newspaper and seemed a little confused.
After a while, she put down the newspaper and said to Gao Qinghe:
"If you want to sell buttons, I can allow you to buy them at the lowest price for Mr. Jiang's sake."
This is completely different from what Gao Qinghe said.
Perhaps she simply didn't believe that Gao Qinghe, a "playboy" who relied on her boyfriend's connections, could save a factory.
Sometimes Gao Qinghe feels that stereotypes are deadly.
Is it her fault that she is pretty and loves to dress up?
Gao Qinghe stood up, supporting himself on the table with one hand and placing his other hand heavily on the newspaper.
Lu Gaoming finally looked at her straight in the eye.
"This is news about the clothing trade fair. It says that not only are there clothing manufacturers from all over China, but they've also specially invited several famous overseas clothing brands, as well as experienced buyers from Hong Kong and Macau."
"Am I right that the button factory's biggest sales target is the garment factory?"
Lu Gaoming said "hmm".
"The domestic clothing market is booming, but the button factory's business is getting worse. What do you think is the reason?"
Lu Gaoming had really thought about this matter and said in a deep voice, "We are not well-known. I am considering whether to buy advertising from the newspaper."
"This exhibition will definitely be in the news, not only domestically but also internationally. After all, this is the largest inland clothing exhibition."
Lu Gaoming frowned deeply and said coldly, "I'm just a county button factory. I don't have that much money to buy a sales booth."
Gao Qinghe smiled.
She retreated to the desk with a bright smile and walked around with her hands on her hips.
"Director, what do you think this booth of mine is worth? Eleven percent isn't too much, right?"
One thing Lu Gaoming had to admit was that even though she was prejudiced against Gao Qinghe, she couldn't help but keep her eyes on her and was attracted by her beauty.
Gao Qinghe saw the clock on the wall and said with his hands spread out:
"Twenty minutes seems to be up soon."
Lu Gaoming couldn't help but laugh, "What do you want me to prepare for you?"
Gao Qinghe: "A train ticket heading south, a bag of buttons, a consignment sales contract, and your factory's account number."
Lu Gaoming nodded, "Give me your information."
After saying that, he picked up the phone and dialed several departments.
Soon, the finance department allocated 20 yuan for the purchase of tickets, and a bag of buttons of various styles was delivered from the warehouse.
There is also a department responsible for legal affairs, which quickly drafts the contract and brings it over.
In less than half an hour, everything Gao Qinghe wanted was ready.
"With this level of efficiency, I think your factory can thrive for another ten years!"
When walking out of the button factory, Gao Qinghe held the signed contract and praised sincerely.
Lu Gaoming said: "Although I am old, I will listen more to the opinions of young people."
She proudly introduced the young girl following behind her to Gao Qinghe.
"This is Xiao Zhang, the secretary in my office. If you have any follow-up questions, just call the office and she will help you find a solution."
Gao Qinghe smiled at him and waved, "Then I'll be leaving."
Lu Gaoming suddenly called her awkwardly, and when Gao Qinghe turned around, he said a little embarrassedly:
"Thank you for not taking my rudeness to you seriously. Even if this trade show doesn't lead to anything, you can still get the buttons from our factory at the lowest price."
"Isn't it for Boss Jiang's sake?" Gao Qinghe asked jokingly.
The smile on Lu Gaoming's lips almost froze.
Gao Qinghe laughed, stopped joking with the old lady, and left quickly.
She had to buy the train ticket quickly before the ticket agency closed.
I was lucky enough to buy a soft sleeper ticket for 5 a.m. on March 30th, which cost 28 yuan per ticket.
The system is funny: [I’ll pay eight dollars.]
Gao Qinghe was happy with it.
She didn't want to suffer the long journey of a day and a night.
The soft sleeper is an independent carriage with only four seats in total, and the environment is much more comfortable than the hard sleeper.
After buying the train ticket, Gao Qinghe went straight back to the staff compound.
Gao Qingmiao had already returned from closing her stall and was preparing dinner for the siblings in the kitchen.
Gao Qinghe took out the contract and train ticket and showed them. "Dang, dang, dang! I've successfully secured the button factory!"
"So easy?"
Gao Qinghe tossed her hair proudly and said, "Of course, it doesn't matter who it is."
Gao Qingmiao was full of admiration for her sister's ability to act.
But I still couldn't help but worry, "Sister, how about I go with you? It's not safe for you to be a woman outside."
Gao Qinghe said firmly, "Just take care of the stall. I'll take care of the rest."
Gao Qingmiao: "Alas, my parents don't know yet."
"I will go back tomorrow and tell them, Okay, eat, I'm starving!" Gao Qinghe urged.
Gao Qingmiao quickly put all his thoughts aside and quickly prepared the food and served it on the table.
Gao Qinghe picked up a piece of stir-fried pork with spring bamboo shoots with his chopsticks and said, "Very good. Your cooking skills have improved."
Gao Qingmiao smiled foolishly, his elder sister praised him~
