Chapter 271 Oolong on the First Day of Opening

The 23rd day of the first lunar month was the official opening day of three Camry convenience stores. Zhou Xinyu still attached great importance to this. He drove his own car and waited outside a store with four people crowded in the back seat. Paper has the upper hand at this time and has the exclusive co-pilot seat.

The store they were looking for was not in the best location, but the one near the business district, where it was easy to bump into Camry's leaders.

After 8:30, three cars drove up in front of this small shop, a Santana, a Fukang, and the best one was a Crown. A few people in their forties who looked like cadres left Come down, hands behind their backs, with an inspection style, looking inside and out, pointing at a certain place from time to time, and then, the three staff members in overalls made some adjustments on the spot as they said.

"So casual?" Zhou Xinyu said to himself.

Gao Zhiyi also looked a little strange, "Are they Jiamei's supervisors or officials?"

"What's so strange about this is that he is a supervisor and an official. For example, the boss of a provincial business has to be at least at the department level. In some business departments under his company, the director is really equivalent to a department-level cadre." Zhou Back then, Xinyu also had the status of a deputy director-level cadre.

At nine o'clock, two salesmen pulled red silk tied with red flowers, and one put a firecracker next to it. Then the three leaders picked up the scissors and smiled at the camera of the propaganda department of the opposite group. Under the watchful eyes of several passers-by who stopped by, they cut the ribbon for this convenience store.

As soon as the leaders left, the three salespersons also relaxed, and their standard standing posture returned to the original state. One was behind the cashier, one leaned against the cashier, and the other walked around the store with his hands behind his back, talking loudly, " I heard that the store in the central area seems to be cut by Vice Chairman Chen of the group labor union."

The one wandering around was the store manager, who happened to see two groups of six people approaching from the opposite side, and hurriedly reminded, "Someone is coming, stand still."

Jiameiyuan looks a bit like Feng Yiping's "Hometown Taste" noodle restaurant, with bright red doors and white letters, conspicuous enough, but Zhou Xinyu still thinks his own blue-based Jiamei is more peaceful.

The layout inside is similar, but there are many small gifts piled up in the basket at the door, and the POP poster next to it says, "During the opening period, it is polite to enter the store!"

Director Sun of Jiamei Purchasing Department asked someone to find it in the warehouse of the head office. They are all leftover promotional items from previous festivals. Since they are leftovers, of course they are not good things. However, they can be given away casually like this. , will still add some attractiveness.

Zhou Xinyu and the others looked very carefully, and at the same time kept comparing with their own store in their minds. In the eyes of those three people, this was their desire to buy. Ha, I hope it will be a good start as soon as it opens! Needless to say, their wish was really fulfilled in a while.

Turning to the salt, Zhou Xinyu looked at the price, was a little stunned, looked at the time, went outside, and called Feng Yiping calmly.

Just after class, Feng Yiping was still walking in the small garden, feeling the phone vibrating in his trouser pocket, and walked behind the flowers, "Did you see it? How is it?"

"I'm looking at it, but it's just one level. It seems that they are backed by provincial merchants, and their bargaining power is indeed stronger than ours. I just saw that their salt is currently on sale, and it only costs 65 cents, which is lower than our purchase price from the provincial salt industry company." It's still two hairs lower."

Of course, Jiamei also knows that the main customers are household users, so when it opened, like Youjia, it selected these commonly used products for promotion. There was a 10% discount, nine cents a pack, and that was an extra five cents to the purchase price. Now Camry is selling for sixty-five cents, which is really amazing.

"Sixty-five cents?" It stands to reason that no, no matter how much face the provincial merchant has, he would not get such a low price from the salt company.

You must know that the salt industry company is also a very powerful owner. It has special laws and has a boss like the China National Salt Corporation on its head. Moreover, the current salt industry companies at all levels are one organization, two Brand, its other brand is the Salt Administration Bureau, which has the ability of administrative law enforcement, so it is both an athlete and a referee, and it is better than oil and telecommunications companies.

Not to mention the loose salt that Feng Yiping could buy for a few cents a catty when he was a child, has disappeared under their attack. The family cooks salted ham and then sells the ham in the market. In such a situation, the Salt Bureau has the right to fine it, because it is private salt. You can eat it yourself. If you sell it in the market, it is a violation "Salt Monopoly Measures".

Therefore, such a company would not bargain with you, why is Camry's price so low?

Feng Yiping, who had worked in a shopping mall, thought of a possibility, and his bad taste came up irresistibly, "Do they have a limit on the quantity they can buy?"

"No, I didn't see it." Zhou Xinyu said.

"Then you say you run a pickle processing factory, and you buy them all as much as they have in stock."

"Buy them all?"

"Buy all, the salt industry company won't give us a price cut, and there is no rebate at the end of the year. When you encounter such a low price, why don't you?"

Hearing Zhou Xinyu's request, the store manager cheerfully called the company to check the stock, which was really a good start!

No matter what, the headquarters of Camry is still concerned about today's business. The store manager called back for a while, and someone immediately relayed the good news to Jin Ling.

Jin Ling did not stay in the office today, but was sitting in the car passing by three stores. She did not participate in the ribbon-cutting of a store today. According to her opinion, there is no need for any ribbon-cutting. However, there are needs at the top, and there are also needs at the bottom. She couldn't help it, her biggest resistance could only be her own excuse not to participate.

It doesn't seem like such a coincidence, does it? "Ask the other two stores, are there many people buying salt?"

"There are no other two stores, and there are not many customers coming to the door now, and all they buy are cigarettes, cigarettes, snacks and drinks."

It's been less than an hour since it opened. No matter how many promotional methods you have, it's good to have sales now. It's not like I haven't seen a small convenience store. Who will wait for you to go in and grab those promotional products as soon as the door opens, and those for daily necessities For price sensitive people, this will probably be ready for lunch at home.

"Go to that store and have a look." Jin Ling said to the driver.

The store manager was really happy. The company reported back that nearly five tons of goods can be transferred, which is more than 6,000 yuan. His small store in an average location can have such a high turnover within one hour of opening. , this is definitely a record time.

Seeing Zhou Xinyu and his party waiting there, Jin Ling felt that something was wrong. She asked the secretary and the driver, "Do you know the price of salt?"

These two are young people in their twenties, who cares about this at home, or the secretary winked, and went to a small store not far away to buy a pack and came back, "One piece."

"Call the company immediately to ask about the company's procurement and finance, and ask them to check the price."

Five minutes later, the news came back. The purchaser checked the purchase price, and the accountant checked the invoice. The purchase price was all eighty-two cents, and the promotion price this time was also set at eighty-five cents. Sixty-five cents, the company is investigating.

Jin Ling walked over and said to Zhou Xinyu, who was waiting for the Camry delivery truck to come and pay, "I'm sorry sir, I am the general manager of Camry, the salt you want to buy is originally priced at 0.85 yuan, because of our negligence in work, It's marked as 0.65, so I'm very sorry, we can only sell it to you at 0.85 yuan per pack."

I see!

"I don't understand what you said," Zhou Xinyu took a bag of salt, pointed to the price tag on it and said, "It's sixty-five cents, right? When I talked to you just now, it was also sixty-five cents, right? Now what? It has risen to eighty-five cents? In business, you have to pay attention to your reputation, how can you just raise the price? Besides, your negligence in work is your company's business, and it has nothing to do with me. "

"Then how about this? All the salt in the store will be paid to you at 0.65 a bag, okay? Others can only be settled at 0.85."

Although the total loss of five tons is less than 2,000 yuan, but on the first day of opening, there was such an oolong, and Jin Ling couldn't afford to lose this person. Of course, if she knew the one on the opposite side, she would be lucky. General Manager, you will feel ashamed now.

"What do you think of me, a petty and cheap person? Go, go to the salt company, it's a waste of our time here."

On the first day of opening, she was slapped like this. No matter how self-restraining Jin Ling is, her face was livid at this time, "Arrange for a comprehensive inspection immediately, and if a similar situation occurs again..." She didn't continue, she always emphasized , everything must be done according to the company's rules and regulations, but in terms of the company's system, this item is still missing.
