Chapter 39: Sales Rejection

"I haven't seen you for a long time. What have you been doing lately?"

Li Yi sat on the sofa with a mysterious smile on his face.

"Uncle Wei, during this period, I am busy discussing business!"

Talking about business?

When did this kid learn how to do business?

Wei Kang'an was a little unconvinced at first, but seeing Li Yi's confident look, he subconsciously believed it.

"Oh, what business are you talking about?"

Li Yi smiled and said: "Of course it's a big business, but I don't know if Uncle Wei is interested!"

"Are you here to do business with me?"

"I have this plan, but I don't know if Uncle Wei will give me this chance!"

"Oh, I wonder what business you do with me?"

"The first business is to give you money, and the second business is to make money from you. Which one do you want to hear first!" Li Yi said.

"Then let's talk about the money-giving business first. You don't know the situation in our factory. Your uncle Wei and I are almost driven crazy by the money!" Wei Kang'an said.

"I want to rent the cold storage in our factory!"

"What do you want to do when renting a cold storage?"

“Put some perishable fruit in!”

"You can let it go if you want. Do you still need to pay me? If your father finds out about this, why don't you fall out with me?" Wei Kang'an said.

"Uncle Wei, if it were only three to five kilograms of things, I really wouldn't give you money, but this time there are a lot of things, and the storage time is also a bit long. It will take at least half a month. It's inappropriate not to give you money!"

“What fruits are you going to put in, and how many are there?”

"About 600,000 catties of apples and pears!"

"How many?"

"Six hundred thousand catties, that is, 300,000 kilograms, 300 tons!"

"Where did you get all these apples and pears?"

"Of course I bought it!"

"bought?"

Suddenly Wei Kang'an realized what he was doing and asked: "The second business you are talking about is not selling apples to me, is it?"

"You guessed it right! It's almost time to distribute benefits in the factory, but there's been no movement, so we've delayed the distribution of benefits, right?"

Wei Kangan's eyes became more and more strange, and then he nodded!

"Uncle Wei, I know there are difficulties in the factory, so I want to make a win-win deal with you!"

Win-win?

Wei Kang'an suddenly became interested and asked, "Let me hear, how do you want to do business with me?"

Li Yi did not answer immediately, but moved the box of apples he brought to Wei Kang'an's desk.

"Uncle Wei, what do you think of this apple?"

While talking, Li Yi opened the packaging box containing apples.

When Wei Kangan saw the apples in the box, he felt a little curious.

The packaging of this apple is quite high-end!

Also, where did these little brats get these apples?

They look plump and plump, each one is definitely a high-quality product, and the variety seems to be quite good!

"Not bad, these apples look quite attractive! The packaging is also very beautiful!"

After looking at it carefully for a while, Wei Kangan's expression became a little serious.

He suddenly realized a problem. The price of these apples would definitely not be low!

But the problem is that the price of apples on the market is only a few cents. Even if you buy them from small stalls, they only cost a dime. If they are too expensive, you can't afford them.

"How much do you plan to sell it for per pound?"

"Uncle Wei, does our factory have no money now?"

"It doesn't cost much, but if the price is not high, you can still purchase a batch!"

"Uncle Wei, we are our own family, and I won't cheat you. If you want it now, I can sell it to you for 5 yuan a box!"

"Five dollars? That's not cheap!"

"My box contains almost 20 kilograms of apples. A box costs five yuan, which is almost 2.5 cents per kilogram! Compared with the apples on the market now, they are almost 2.5 times more expensive!"

"You kid still says you won't cheat me. Even though I'm the director of the factory, your Uncle Wei can't do anything for personal gain!"

Li Yi smiled and said: "Uncle Wei, I really didn't cheat you. This price is only available today, but after today it won't be available!"

"What's the meaning?"

"What I mean is that the price of my apples will be raised in a few days, and it's not even a little bit higher!"

"It's already five yuan, how much more can you raise the price? Do you still plan to sell the co-authored book for ten yuan a box?"

Li Yi smiled and said: "That's really possible!"

"I don't dare to ask for such a high price. If I do, the people in the factory will poke my spine!" Wei Kang'an refused simply.

Li Yi didn't take it seriously, smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. If the factory still needs it in a few days, you are looking for me, but then the price will not be this!"

"Okay, you can go to your dad about the cold storage, but forget about the apple business!"

"Okay, you're busy then, I'll leave first!"

"Take the apples, too, to save others from saying that I, the factory director, receive gifts when I first take office!" Wei Kang'an said with a smile.

"I won't take the apple. This is my nephew's honor to you!"

After saying that, Li Yi left without looking back.

As soon as he came downstairs, he saw Wei Sanpao rushing out of the duty room on one side, and then asked hurriedly: "Brother Yi, what did my dad say, do you want to buy our apples?"

"Not buying!"

"Ah, why!"

“Too expensive!”

"Ah, it is indeed expensive, but if he doesn't buy it, what should we do next?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "Okay, don't worry, everything is within my expectations!"

"Then what should we do next?"

"Tomorrow I will come up with the design of the packaging box, and then Xiaowu's family will fully produce the packaging box. Your task is to go back and tell your father that we will use the factory's large truck to go to Yandong City in a few days, and then we can pay the freight!"

"Brother Yi, since it costs money, why do you have to use the factory's car?" Wei Sanpao asked puzzledly.

"This is a key part of the whole plan. I'll tell you why later. Just tell me if this can be done?"

"Yes, our factory has hundreds of trucks, most of which are idle. If we need them, how can he not let us use them? Besides, it's not like he won't pay us!"

"Next, I'll assign you a task!"

"What task?"

"Give gifts!"

"Give gifts?"

"Yes, didn't we bring back a total of 500 kilograms of apples? Starting tomorrow, you will send the packaged apples to the homes of the heads of various enterprises and units such as the textile factory, the accessory factory, and the supply and marketing cooperative. Just say that they are Fuji apples imported from Japan, so that they can have a taste!"

"No problem. I know most of the children of the factory directors and deputy factory directors of the factories you mentioned, and many of them are my classmates. It's most appropriate to send things over in the name of a visit!"

"If you can get this done, then our fruit business will be almost done!"

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

"Yes!"
