Xian Dong showed a deliberately embarrassed expression, paused for a moment, and then said: "If Miss Zhou feels that the public security in Shenning is poor, but does not want to give up this market, you can let me manage the development of the Meiyi brand in Shenning."
The old fox's tail can finally no longer be hidden.
"How is this full-power management method?" Zhou Yi did not expose him, but pretended not to understand.
"Of course, although it is fully managed, Miss Zhou will still be given a certain percentage of the profits every year." Xian Dong took a sip of tea, looked at Zhou Yi deeply, and continued, "This means that Miss Zhou does not have to do anything, and does not have to come to Chen Ning, and she can share the profits. For you, there is no loss at all."
That's a really good saying, something for nothing! Anyone who refuses is a fool, right?
However, it is not certain who is the fool.
"How much profit share does Mr. Xian plan to give to the Meiyi brand every day?" Zhou Yi followed up his question.
Xian Dong smiled, knowing that the little girl was about to jump into his trap.
"Ms. Zhou, I will be responsible for all expenses and operating costs, and 20% of the profits will be given to Meiyi. What do you think?" Xian Dong asked Zhou Yi tentatively.
Zhou Yi kept smiling, but he was secretly complaining in his heart, this old fox is so bold, he wants to take the good intention for himself just by giving 20% profit?
This wishful thinking is loud enough, and he will definitely not get the final 20%. The accounts are with him, so he has the final say on what he wants to do, right?
"I'm giving it to you as a favor, and I'm getting 20% of the profit for free?" Zhou Yi said with a smile.
After hearing this, Xian Dong keenly felt that Zhou Yi seemed to have figured out something?
But looking at her excited face, it was obvious that she was thinking that she had made a good deal.
That's right, no matter how knowledgeable she is, she is just a rural girl in her early twenties, it is impossible for her to see any tricks.
"That's right, Miss Zhou. You can get 20% of the profit for free. After all, I used the Meiyi brand, so you deserve it." Xian Dong replied, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Of course, if we have a cooperative relationship, I can supply you with the fabrics Miss Zhou needs at Jinghai Garment Factory at a price 20% lower than the market price."
He is indeed an old fox. Not only does he want to take over Meiyi's market in Shenning, he also wants to strangle the lifeline of Meiyi's cloth in the Jinghai market, and at the same time increase a large number of orders for his cloth factory.
I have to say, this wishful thinking is really invincible, killing three birds with one stone!
I just don’t know how Xian Dong could bring himself to say this. Is this called cooperation?
Did he really think she was a country girl who had never seen the world? Or did he think she was a fool?
Zhou Yi's smile began to turn playful. He glanced at Xian Dong, but didn't respond. Instead, he asked, "Mr. Xian, do you know the current daily sales and order figures for Meiyi in Jinghai and Jingcheng?"
Xian Dong frowned slightly. Why did this girl ask that? Did she see through his plan? Or did she think 20% profit was too little and wanted to ask for more?
No, she couldn't possibly tell, it had to be the latter.
It has to be said that at this time Xian Dong really looked down on Zhou Yi and overestimated himself.
"A rough estimate of daily sales suggests it's close to 100,000. Speaking of which, I have to admire Ms. Zhou. The Meiyi brand is quite successful." Xian Dong praised Zhou Yi and added, "Cost control is also part of maximizing profits. I'm supplying you at 20% below the market price to help Ms. Zhou control costs."
A rough estimate? This daily sales figure is very close to the current Meiyi figures.
It seems that Xian Dong has put a lot of thought into research and really regards the good intention as his own?
"Mr. Xian, since this is a cooperation, how can I take advantage of you?" Zhou Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, intending to guide the conversation towards the way of cooperation.
At this moment, she was thinking in her mind how to return the favor and kill three birds with one stone.
"Miss Zhou, you are being too formal. We are just each taking advantage of our strengths. No one is taking advantage of anyone." Xian Dong picked up the teacup again and looked at Zhou Yi carefully.
"Giving me 20% profit for free and supplying me with cloth at a price 20% lower than the market price, isn't that taking advantage? Mr. Xian is truly wealthy." Zhou Yixiao looked at Xian Dong, a sly glint in his eyes. "But to me, this is taking advantage of Mr. Xian. We can't do this."
"Ms. Zhou, this really can't be considered as taking advantage. I am willing to make friends with such a talented junior like you." Xian Dong obviously didn't want to cause trouble and wished Zhou Yi would agree on the spot.
Zhou Yi looked embarrassed and said to Xian Dong seriously, "Mr. Xian, this is a matter of principle. I never take advantage of my partners in business."
After speaking, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, then continued, "We still have to think about cooperation in the long term. I can't put all the responsibility on Mr. Xian just because I'm afraid of Shen Ning's security. This is not called cooperation. Let me go back and think about the method of cooperation for two days. Then we can decide how to cooperate. What do you think?"
Xian Dong didn't expect Zhou Yi to disagree, so he arrogantly proposed quite generous conditions for cooperation.
She doesn't have to spend any money or effort. If she can't treat Zhou Yi as separate from Shen Ning, then the biker gang incident he arranged will be of no use at all, right?
Two brothers were lost in vain.
Xian Dong obviously wouldn't want to see such an outcome. He continued, "Ms. Zhou, the current security situation in Shenning is indeed very chaotic, and there are many powerful forces. The cooperation method I proposed is already the most friendly option for you. You really don't need to worry about whether you are taking advantage of it or not. This is a win-win choice."
If he hadn't emphasized the security environment, it would have been fine. If he had, Zhou Yi would have been certain that the biker gang incident was arranged by him.
Zhou Yi sneered in his heart. If it were someone else, they might really be scared off by the security environment like Shen Ning and directly accept the cooperation method he proposed.
But who is Zhou Yi? How could a man who has lived two lives be afraid of a trivial trick like yours?
"Mr. Xian, I just said that this is a matter of principle and I cannot accept it." Zhou Yi said calmly with a smile.
The more anxious Xian Dong was, the calmer she became. Now she was not the one who was ambitious and eager to take possession of other people's achievements.
Seeing Zhou Yi's firm attitude, Xian Dong knew that he couldn't push him too hard, otherwise the result would be more harm than good.
Moreover, as long as Zhou Yi is still with Shen Ning, he has plenty of ways to make her agree.
What he didn't know was that this was also the main reason why Zhou Yi didn't discuss the cooperation method with him today.
Although Su Mingzhe and Li Zhao had investigated Xian Dong before and had some information about his forces and resources, those were only superficial.
After all, he is the local boss of Shen Ning, and there are always some means and resources hidden behind him.
If we don't give Xian Dong some opportunities to take action, how can we find out his background in Shen Ning?
