Chapter 319 Difficulties
When walking out of the general hall, the second general manager stopped Zhang Ye again: "First General Manager."
Now the second general manager is really proud to be in charge of the important commercial department. Perhaps the second general manager was the one who got in the way when the director-general took away Zhang Ye's commercial department.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Ye didn't have a good look on people like this who were adding insult to injury.
"Master General Secretary is doing this for the sake of Lingbaosi. The General Manager should not take it to heart..." The Second General Manager pretended to persuade him, and then said, "In the future, if the new department really can't expose the pot, the General Manager can come. If you come to me, you can still make a few small orders."
Fart, I'm afraid Zhang Ye will kneel on the ground and beg, and he won't even be able to get any of his orders.
"Second brother, I wrongly blamed you before. It's true that a distance can tell a horse's strength, and time can tell a person's heart. I will definitely treat you well in the future." Zhang Ye's voice was sincere.
The second manager felt relieved after hearing this, thinking that Zhang Ye had given in. But when he turned his head, he saw Zhang Ye staring at his crotch and sighing.
The second manager was so angry that his lips turned white and he was speechless for a long time.
Zhang Ye achieved his goal, flicked his little hand, and strode away.
The second manager looked at Zhang Ye's back and shouted, "I lost that batch of sprouted beans!"
In the last conversation, the second manager compared sprouted beans to the new department, but Zhang Ye scolded him to pieces. At this moment, he said that he would throw away the batch of sprouted beans, which meant that he would completely destroy the new department.
Zhang Ye didn't even look back: "I picked up a batch of golden bean sprouts a few days ago, and it turned out that you lost them. I mean, who is so ignorant? It turned out to be you!"
What Zhang Ye means is that sooner or later the new ministry will bear golden beans, making those who look down on the new ministry regret it.
The second manager wanted to say something else, but Zhang Ye had already strode away, not wanting to waste time with these boring people.
Zhang Ye had one less department in his hands, but he had a lot more time. After asking about the work of the forging department and the R&D department, he went to the blacksmith shop. Since Zhang Ye became the general manager, he has not forged Lingbao for a long time. Since he has plenty of time, he will forge it with everyone and contribute to the blacksmith shop.
"General Manager..." Zhang Ye came to the blacksmith shop. It was a lot shabby compared to Lingbaosi, but everyone was working enthusiastically, and when they saw Zhang Ye, they all stood up and saluted.
"Don't worry about me, everyone is busy with their own business." Zhang Ye ordered, then found a seat at the stove and sat down, like everyone else, creating a low-grade innate spiritual treasure.
The general manager has always been aloof, how could he do such menial work like Zhang Ye.
Moreover, Zhang Ye was not just pretending, he was really creating low-grade spiritual treasures, with an astonishing success rate. The blacksmiths were inspired and worked harder and harder.
When it was almost afternoon, Manager Wang hurried over: "Stop what you are doing first."
Everyone was confused and Zhang Ye asked: "What's wrong?"
Principal Wang signaled Zhang Ye to come out and speak. Zhang Ye tidied up and walked out of the forge with Principal Wang.
"The order has been withdrawn." Manager Wang looked serious.
"Withdrawn?" Zhang Ye frowned slightly, "Where's the deposit?"
"The other party doesn't want it anymore." Manager Wang paused, "Not only the orders from Jubaozhai, but also Tianbao Pavilion, Juggernaut Family... all orders have been withdrawn."
These orders were recommended by Zhang Ye through his influence. It was obvious that something was wrong with them all being canceled at this moment.
"Did they say anything?" Zhang Ye asked.
"I don't want to say anything. I just said that the plan has changed and I don't want the deposit." Boss Wang frowned. Even if the full payment was a drop in the bucket for the blacksmith shop, a small deposit would be of no use at all. No wonder Boss Wang didn't dare to ask the blacksmith. The announcement by the teachers will definitely dampen everyone's fighting spirit.
Zhang Ye vaguely guessed the reason, but he still needed to verify it, so he said: "We will have a day off today, and I will go to Jubaozhai to ask."
Jubaozhai is a Lingbao shop in Nantianfu City. It is not large in scale and only sells innate Lingbao at most. It does not engage in higher-level Lingbao trading, so Zhang Ye previously recommended their orders to the blacksmith shop.
Zhang Ye entered the Jubaozhai, and the shopkeeper immediately recognized Zhang Ye and kept smiling charmingly: "General manager, what kind of wind has brought you here? Some people are far away to welcome you, some are far away to greet you. Someone is coming, please give it to me quickly. The steward serves tea!”
"No!" Zhang Ye refused the shopkeeper's invitation and said directly, "Why were the orders at the blacksmith shop withdrawn?"
The shopkeeper's face changed slightly, and he forced out a smile and said: "The profit of this small shop is very low, and the capital turnover is difficult, so I have to give up this order temporarily. There is nothing I can do about it."
Zhang Ye's eyes widened: "Do you really think that since the general manager has lost the commercial department, there is nothing he can do to you? Let's recruit him!"
Zhang Ye has always refused to offend others unless they offend him, but sometimes, being tougher is more effective.
The shopkeeper trembled in fright, looked a little struggling, looked around, and had to confess honestly: "General Manager, the younger one actually doesn't want to, the second manager has sent a message, asking the younger one to end this batch of orders. It is better for the county magistrate to take charge now." , the Commercial Department of Lingbao Division has the lifeblood of small shops like us, so we dare not disobey..."
The commercial department of Lingbao Division has public and private jurisdictions. It is not only responsible for the foreign trade of Lingbao Division, but also the Lingbao business in Nantianfucheng. This is why there was a long queue of gift-givers on the day Zhang Yegang became the general manager.
Without the Ministry of Commerce in Zhang Ye's hands, it can be regarded as a loss of life.
The shopkeeper repeatedly accused him, but Zhang Ye didn't get angry with him because the shopkeeper just succumbed to the coercion of the second manager, and Zhang Ye didn't want to sacrifice innocent people.
Zhang Ye walked out of Jubaozhai, his face as dark as water. He did not visit other shops that had withdrawn orders, because it would be in vain, so he went straight back to the blacksmith shop.
Before Zhang Ye had time to discuss countermeasures with Director Wang, Director Wang reported another piece of bad news: "The merchants with whom we had a good relationship in the past few days have also terminated their cooperation intentions."
Zhang Ye was angry, but there was no accident. The second manager was a ruthless person, and he would kill everyone if he didn't take action.
Not only is there no order now, Zhang Ye can guarantee that all the shops in Nantianfu City may not dare to cooperate with the blacksmith shop.
Zhang Ye told the story about the second manager, and Manager Wang became furious: "Hit his whole family!"
Anger has no effect and cannot change the status quo. This is why Zhang Ye never got angry. He said: "First think of a way to stabilize everyone's mood. I will think of a way about the order later."
…
At night, Zhang Ye did not return to Lingbaosi, so he stayed at the blacksmith shop, but he couldn't sleep.
There are more than a thousand people working in the blacksmith shop, and they need to have income to support their families. Now that there are no orders and financial resources, Zhang Ye must be worried.
You must know that Zhang Ye vowed that they would have a good life in the new department. These people who came here were all people who trusted Zhang Ye, and a large number of them even gave up their jobs in Lingbao Division and joined voluntarily.
If the blacksmith shop really fails to continue, Zhang Ye's career will be affected to a small extent. The key is that he has betrayed everyone's trust, which is what Zhang Ye feels most uncomfortable with.
Of course, there is no way out now, that is, to go to the second manager to plead for mercy. But Zhang Ye has a bad temper and a stubborn personality. He would rather bend than bend. It would be better to go to a dirty and dirty person like the second manager to plead to death. .
Just when Zhang Ye was thinking hard, the forging system dinged: "Trigger the side mission, break the blacksmith shop dilemma within three days, and reward the forging skill - Innate Spiritual Treasure Specialization."
Zhang Ye still remembered the last time he spent ten yuan of high-grade sky stones to buy a side mission, saying that he wanted to dominate the heavens and would be rewarded with five yuan of high-grade sky stones.
This time, the forging system triggered a side mission for free, which was a perfect fit to break the blacksmith shop dilemma. The rewards are also very attractive. The innate spiritual treasure specialization allows Zhang Ye to forge all innate spiritual treasures.
However, isn’t it cheating to break the dilemma in three days? Zhang Ye was even more miserable.
Early the next morning, Zhang Ye really thought of a way and immediately went to Chief Wang to discuss it.
"Let's carry out retail sales ourselves?" Manager Wang was stunned for a long time. This turned out to be what Zhang Ye meant.
"That's right, why limit your sights to large orders? Our blacksmith shop builds and sells by ourselves. The second manager can prevent the shops from cooperating with us, but he can't stop the customers who come to visit..." Zhang Ye elaborated on this idea.
Manager Wang thought for a moment, and it seemed to be the truth, but he hesitated: "If we carry out retail by ourselves, wouldn't we offend other businesses, and how can we cooperate in the future? The most important thing is, I am afraid that everyone will reject it in their hearts."
Although the blacksmith shop was separated from Lingbaosi, everyone still regarded themselves as the blacksmiths of Lingbaosi. To put it bluntly, they looked down on those retail jobs.
Just like a poor scholar in the world, he would not do menial work even if he starved to death. This is the dignity of a scholar.
Blacksmiths also have the dignity of blacksmiths, and if they are allowed to retail like market vendors, it may not be possible to lose face.
However, Zhang Ye had made a fortune by opening a blacksmith shop before, so he couldn't understand this kind of behavior of trying to save face and suffer.
Zhang Ye said: "We retail, no matter whether we offend other businesses or not, it is impossible for other businesses to cooperate with us anyway, so there is no need to worry about this."
"As for everyone's thoughts, it shouldn't be a problem to do extraordinary things at critical moments and do some ideological work."
After listening to Zhang Ye's arrangement, Director Wang felt that there was no other way around it, so he had no choice but to follow it.
The blacksmiths in the blacksmith shop have stopped forging since yesterday. I don't know where they heard the news. The second general manager wanted to force the blacksmith shop to death and cut off all the orders. They were all worried.
At noon today, Director Wang came to communicate with everyone about the idea of launching retail in the blacksmith shop, which caused a stir.
"Buying and selling things is what merchants do. How can I, a blacksmith, be so spineless!"
"If you do this, wouldn't it make you laughable?"
After staying in Lingbaosi for a long time, my thinking will inevitably become somewhat solidified. Aren't big orders from the government or companies also selling? The blacksmiths were very stubborn. Although they did not resist openly, they were always unconvinced privately.
In the evening, Lingbaosi's salary system was re-introduced, and the benefits of all blacksmiths were doubled. This news spread to the blacksmith shop through the arrangements of some thoughtful people.
The blacksmiths at the blacksmith shop could no longer hold back, gathered together, and surrounded Zhang Ye's outdoor room.
"General Manager, didn't you say you want us to live a good life? I followed you voluntarily before. Now Lingbaosi's salary has doubled, but as for us, we can't even earn a piece of sky stone!"
"General Manager, you are above me and will not be affected, but I have a family to support..."
Everyone felt that they had boarded Zhang Ye's pirate ship, and the crowd was excited. If this group incident is not handled well, the blacksmith shop may fall apart tonight.
