Chapter 396 The Purchasing Business Begins
Seeing that Li Fuhua looked at her with suspicion, Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly took out her ID and letter of introduction.
After reading the ID, Li Fuhua's expression became more complicated.
He thought he was awesome for becoming the sales manager at the age of 23, but he never expected that the girl would become the sales manager at the age of 19.
As expected, comparing people will make you die, and comparing goods will make you throw them away.
He cleared his throat and said, "Manager Su, right? I wonder what kind of cooperation you want to discuss?"
They are all part of the supply and marketing system. Logically, they should have the same goods as those in Binhe City. I wonder if there is anything they can cooperate on.
"Well, we have an order for a batch of quartz wall clocks. Director Li, are you interested?"
"What?"
After listening to Su Xiaoxiao, Li Fuhua was dumbfounded.
Quartz wall clocks are a hot commodity these days, so do we still need to come out and solicit orders?
Could it be that the price is too high and it can't be sold? Otherwise, how could such a popular item have trouble selling?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Manager Su, I wonder what the minimum price of your quartz wall clock is?"
Su Xiaoxiao has learned her lesson now. She doesn't point fingers but points it out directly.
"Forty yuan per ticket, no ticket required."
Li Fuhua staggered and almost knocked her to the ground.
How much? Was he hallucinating?
He spoke uncertainly, "Manager Su, I think I misheard you. How much did you say this quartz wall clock cost?"
Su Xiaoxiao repeated without hesitation: "Forty-one. Of course, if you want more, I can give you a discount of one dollar per unit."
"Ah! Li Goudan, do you want to die? Why are you pinching me?"
Chen Lingling was pinched hard on the arm by Li Fuhua. She screamed and raised her hand to fight.
This cousin is becoming more and more lawless. He even dared to attack his cousin.
Li Fuhua touched his nose awkwardly: "I thought I was dreaming, didn't I? I'll pinch you and see if it hurts."
Chen Lingling slammed him back without hesitation: "Man, stop dithering. Let's see if this deal is going to work out. If not, we'll look for another company..."
Before Su Xiaoxiao could say anything, she became anxious and pretended to pull Su Xiaoxiao away.
"Sister, you are my biological sister. I didn't say no. I will take you to see our purchasing manager right now."
With Li Fuhua's help, the order was negotiated very smoothly and the other party directly ordered one thousand units.
Su Xiaoxiao was very satisfied. With this order in hand, she could focus on her purchasing business.
She was on a business trip for a week, but unexpectedly she got the order on the first day.
Coming out of Hai City's First Department Store, Su Xiaoxiao asked Chen Lingling, "Sister, do you know where Chenhe Village is?"
If she remembered correctly, this was the place Chen Guanghai told her about when he was selling sea cucumbers.
Chen Lingling didn't answer her question directly, but asked her: "Sister, why are you asking about Chen Hecun?"
Su Xiaoxiao was unfamiliar with the place and had to rely on Chen Lingling for help in many things. She did not hide anything and told her everything.
"I happened to buy some sea cucumbers from a guy last time. My relatives and friends all liked them very much. I thought I'd bring some home during my visit."
"Oh, I was wondering why you looked so good to me. Guess what? Chen Guanghai is my uncle. You bought all their sea cucumbers last time, which really helped the village."
Chen Lingling looked at her with surprise.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect such a coincidence that Chen Lingling turned out to be Chen Guanghai's niece.
"Come on, sister, I didn't expect that we are so destined to meet. I must treat you to a meal. You are my benefactor. Otherwise, I would be like a headless fly looking for someone."
Su Xiaoxiao enthusiastically took Chen Lingling back to the state-owned restaurant, so she didn't have to look for someone like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It’s not that she has to buy goods from Chen Guanghai, but she is mainly afraid that if she buys from someone else, they will see that she is from another place and cheat her.
"It's only what time now, what are you eating? Come on, I'll take you back now."
Chen Lingling didn't care about her work in the afternoon. She went straight to the company to ask for leave and rushed to Chenhe Village with Su Xiaoxiao.
Chenhe Village is a small fishing village by the sea. For generations, the villagers have made a living by fishing.
The land here is not productive, and the food produced can barely provide them with enough food and clothing. They rely on fishing and weaving nets to supplement their family income.
Chen Lingling took her on a bumpy bus and they finally arrived at Chenhe Village before dark.
At this moment, smoke was rising from every household, and the aunts and sisters who had eaten early were sitting in the yard weaving fish nets.
The finished fishing nets can be taken to the town to exchange for money, which can help supplement the family income.
"My uncle lives in the north of the village. Cross this street and go north. Look, that's the yard over there."
Chen Lingling took Su Xiaoxiao all the way to Chen Guanghai's house.
Many aunties and sisters she knew greeted her proactively.
Everyone was a little curious when they saw Su Xiaoxiao.
"Erya, who is this girl? She's so pretty."
An aunt stopped and asked Chen Lingling.
Chen Lingling introduced openly: "Auntie, this is my distant cousin."
"Oh, does your cousin have a boyfriend? How old is he this year?"
When my aunt heard her say that, she immediately became more enthusiastic.
"Aunt, my cousin is married and her child is already several years old."
Chen Lingling left a message and hurriedly pulled Su Xiaoxiao away.
If they say they are not married, a group of aunts and sisters will definitely surround them and start introducing them to potential partners.
Many families here used to favor boys over girls, and many girls were drowned in the water. Therefore, there are fewer and fewer girls in the village in recent years, and more and more young men are single.
The village is too poor, and girls from outside don't want to marry in. There are few girls in the village, so many men are still single in their thirties and forties.
When they were almost at Chen Guanghai's house, Chen Lingling worriedly reminded Su Xiaoxiao, "No matter who asks you, just say you're married, okay? Otherwise, these aunties will keep pestering you."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. She didn't want to get into trouble either.
Otherwise, there would be a lot of people proposing marriages to her all day long, which would be so annoying.
As they were talking, they arrived at Chen Guanghai's door. Chen Lingling stepped forward and knocked on the door twice: "Uncle, it's me, Erya."
Chen Lingling had a loud voice, and as soon as she finished shouting, Su Xiaoxiao heard footsteps approaching from far away in the room.
Soon, the courtyard door was opened from the inside. It was opened by a middle-aged woman. Seeing Su Xiaoxiao next to Chen Lingling, she was stunned for a moment: "Er Ya, who is this girl?"
Afraid of being misunderstood again, Chen Lingling hurriedly explained: "Aunt, this is a distant cousin from my father's side. She came to see my uncle for something."
Wang Xiujuan looked Su Xiaoxiao up and down, then made way for the door. "Come in quickly. Your uncle is in the room. It's a good time for us to have a bite together."
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wang Xiujuan and called out sweetly, "Auntie, hello."
Wang Xiujuan nodded and took the two of them into the house.
In the room, Chen Guanghai was drinking with a worried look on his face. Recently, the state-owned restaurant that used to sell Dinghai goods in the town went bankrupt, and their village lost another source of income.
