Chapter 153: Negotiated
Qin Huiyin asked Zhang Dazhui to come over and put their samples in front of Xia Ruwan.
Xia Ruwan looked at these small and exquisite things and admired them as works of art at first, but she soon grasped the key points.
She fiddled with the turntable in the middle of the dining table, her eyes full of surprise: "This design is very clever."
"These guys are carpenters. They can make these convenient and practical dining tables. In addition to these, there are a few other things. We just came over from Boss Ning. He was very interested and ordered more than a dozen. I thought Miss Xia is a well-informed business person and would definitely see the convenience of this kind of dining table, so I came to you."
"Sister, you are really smart. You have such a keen business acumen at such a young age. In a few years, I am afraid that I will have to make a living at your hands."
"The business world is so big, can't it accommodate two female businesswomen? Being a woman is difficult. No matter what you do, you will be criticized. I thought my sister would like me and become my ally."
Xia Ruwan chuckled, looked at Qin Huiyin, and said, "You are right, these tables are very interesting. My restaurant should also add some new features. Shuhui, you go and draw up a bill of goods, according to the size of the tables downstairs, order 20 small tables, 10 medium-sized tables, and 15 wing-room-sized tables. By the way, the wing-rooms must have these dining tables with views. In addition, 20 stools for children to sit on, 15 in the lobby and 5 upstairs. According to the rules, after the silver is calculated, pay a 20% deposit."
"Yes, miss."
The Zhang family was so excited that they were speechless. In fact, they didn't even dare to say a word in front of these rich people. They were extremely grateful that Qin Huiyin helped them.
"Sister is really generous and magnanimous." Qin Huiyin said, "Sister is generous, so we can't be stingy. Boss Ning is our old customer, so we give him a 20% discount. Sister is a big customer, so let's give her a 30% discount!"
"You really know how to please others." Xia Ruwan said, "They have Shuhui to entertain them, so please talk to me!"
Zhang's father and son followed the maid Shuhui to the study to draw up the list of goods. After the list of goods was drawn up, they would come over to show it to Qin Huiyin and Xia Ruwan.
Xia Ruwan poured Qin Huiyin a cup of tea: "I have been learning business from my mother since I was a child. As you said, even though my mother is very smart and capable, she still encountered many difficulties. Those men who say that women should stay in the boudoir are simply worried that women will be better than them and trample on their old faces. I am really happy to see you, as if I have met a fellow human being."
"I like my sister, too. In my opinion, a woman should be as heroic as my sister. It would be great if I could be half as graceful as her when I grow up."
"Your little mouth looks like it's covered with honey. Is it because of your good cooking skills, or your sweet mouth that makes the customers dizzy with you?" Xia Ruwan chuckled.
"If you're curious, you can try my cooking skills to see if they're as good as my mouth skills."
"I suddenly want to know what kind of cooperation you are talking about. While there is still time, please tell me in detail!" Xia Ruwan said.
Qin Huiyin told Xia Ruwan about her idea. She wanted to open a skewers shop. All she needed was a pot of soup prepared with a secret recipe, and then let the customers choose the ingredients they like and cook it in, and then they could make a delicious dish. They only needed to choose a shop, decorate it in a good style, and the rest was to hire workers.
"We can set up two barbecue stalls next to it. If customers want to eat barbecue, let them choose and pay for it and take it away." Qin Huiyin said, "For ordinary people, Qingyue Restaurant is too high-end. They work hard for ten years and are reluctant to go in for a meal. But this shop I opened is for ordinary people. The price is cheap and they can eat whatever they want."
"Let me think about it carefully." Xia Ruwan said.
"Don't worry, sister will think about it slowly." Qin Huiyin smiled, "They are back."
Shuhui gave the bill of lading to Xia Ruwan for review, and the latter, who thought there was no problem, gave it to Qin Huiyin.
Qin Huiyin read it to Zhang's father and son to confirm that this was the price they had agreed on. She signed her name first and then asked Zhang's father and son to put their fingerprints on it.
Xia Ruwan looked at Qin Huiyin's handwriting with surprise in her eyes, and then looked at Qin Huiyin with a little more appreciation. She also wrote down her own name.
Xia Ruwan's handwriting is very heroic, which is completely different from her delicate appearance. As the saying goes, handwriting reflects people, sometimes appearance can be deceiving, but eyes and writing style cannot.
Coming out of Qingyue Restaurant, Zhang and his son felt like they were in a dream, and they seemed to be floating as they walked.
"Uncle Zhang, why don't I drive the ox cart? You're in such a trance, I'm worried something might happen." Qin Huiyin said.
"No, no, I'll be fine soon." Carpenter Zhang slapped his face hard to regain consciousness.
joke.
This little ancestor is a golden child, how could he dare to let her drive the ox cart? If she got into trouble, not to mention that Li Taohua would make him pay, he would want to slap himself a few times.
"Thirty taels of silver." Zhang Erzhu shook Zhang Dazhu's arm. "Brother, this is only a 20% deposit. How much will it cost after we deliver the goods?"
"Uncle Zhang, Dazhu and Erzhu, the most important thing for you now is to find someone who can keep accounts. Also, you have to learn to read, otherwise how can you negotiate business in the future? If you can't read, the other party will set a trap for you to fall into. Not to mention making money, I'm afraid you will lose everything." Qin Huiyin said, "It doesn't require you to write well, but at least you have to be able to read contracts."
"Dazhu has a cousin who went to school for a few years, but because his family was poor, he had no money to continue his studies. I invited him to work as our accountant and teach us how to read," said Carpenter Zhang.
"My uncle passed away early, and my aunt raised my cousin alone. After the family ran out of money, my cousin stopped studying, but I heard that he has been copying books to make money to supplement the family income." Zhang Dazhu said, "When my uncle was alive, our family was well off, and my uncle and aunt even secretly gave money to my mother. My cousin from the Zhou family is also a kind person. If he can help us, it will really save us a lot of trouble."
"Dad, brother, sister Huiyin, now that we have money, can we go and propose marriage to the Xiao family?" Zhang Erzhu said anxiously.
"Let's propose tomorrow," Zhang Dazhu said, "and then hold a wedding banquet right away to finalize this matter. You still have to go back to the dam, and time is tight, so I have to let my sister-in-law inconvenience you."
"After Erzhu left, there are only two carpenters left in the family. It will take you two a long time to complete such a large order. What are your plans?"
"I plan to hire four carpenters as assistants and two apprentices," said Carpenter Zhang. "For such a large order, we must complete it as soon as possible and not keep the customer waiting for too long."
