Chapter 2421
A Cup of Wine to Release Military Power
Xu Damao left the He family dejectedly.
He never expected He Yuzhu to be so disrespectful.
His decision to confess to He Yuzhu this time was undoubtedly driven by a desire to test the waters and a sense of wishful thinking.
There are two types of tapping: one is to let it go this time and be more careful next time.
He Yuzhu clearly chose the latter option.
He Yuzhu's words just now made it very clear that he would not tolerate any of it.
Therefore, Xu Damao needs to consider changing his business strategies.
Just like He Yuzhu said, earning three or four thousand is the same as earning seven or eight thousand.
In this world of fame and fortune, who would complain about making too much money?
He imported two hundred watches through legitimate channels in the south.
But those who went to his stall to buy things were asking for at least four or five hundred yuan.
Some small vendors from the outskirts of Beijing are even considering buying wholesale from him.
Xu Damao, who now has a business license, definitely wants to earn this money.
But He Yuzhu had just rejected his delusions.
So, there was no "then," and Xu Damao could only think about pushing away some money that he shouldn't have earned.
He didn't even have the courage to blame He Yuzhu.
After all these years of getting along, he knew very well that he had better take seriously what He Yuzhu said to him seriously.
Otherwise, he'll definitely be the one who suffers.
Xu Damao can definitely fix this loophole.
In other words, we urgently need to import a batch of goods from legitimate channels to make up for the quantity that was sold haphazardly in the previous period.
As for the goods that come in later, they are simply distributed to the market with a small profit of one or two yuan added.
That doesn't count as making money.
As I said before, these days, in electronics-related businesses, if you don't make a 50/50 profit, you're losing money.
He Yuzhu wasn't lying; the market had been open for three months.
With operations stabilized, He Yuzhu, in the name of the market management committee, issued a notice to the 500 stalls below.
That means checking the purchase orders and sales quantities.
The moment this notice was issued, the individual vendors below were in an uproar.
Most vendors have their own ways of doing things, and they're not exactly respectable.
He Yuzhu's actions are tantamount to uprooting everyone's foundation.
The key point is that these vendors can't even run away from this situation.
After all, the shipping orders are all handled by the finance department of the major market. Every screw, every piece of spring, everything that has been sold is accounted for.
Therefore, it's simply impossible to fake it.
Of course, He Yuzhu didn't intend to condemn everyone based on a single case; he gave everyone a week to sort out their accounts.
As long as the vendors below are willing to fill this gap, it can always be filled.
As for the discrepancy between the sales time and the purchase time, that can be easily overlooked.
To put it bluntly, He Yuzhu didn't want to ruin this market.
Rather, the current market trend has already taken shape.
So, the underhanded tactics we used to employ can no longer be brought to light.
He Yuzhu's approach seems to be one of using people when they're needed and discarding them when they're not.
He had no choice.
He never imagined that the market could grow to this scale and become a trendsetter for the electronics market in northern China.
To put it bluntly, regardless of whether it's a big brand or a small brand, if a brand doesn't have a store in a major market, nobody in the market recognizes it.
If someone with such a strong presence were to try and pull any tricks, they would be digging their own grave.
The key issue is that the city government and certain other entities are still eyeing the CNC college with covetous intent.
If any management problems arise in the CNC (Computer Numerical Control) Institute, those departments will be happy to 'assist in management'.
Therefore, the first thing He Yuzhu did after donning the imperial robe was to release his subordinates from their military power with a cup of wine.
"Achoo...Achoo..." In the principal's office of the School of CNC Machining, He Yuzhu had been sneezing incessantly lately, perhaps due to the dry weather.
It looks like some kind of allergy.
He Yuzhu took out a handkerchief and wiped his bright red nose.
Looking at the young man opposite him who was even more sleazy than him, he said irritably, "In the first half of the year, I asked you to come over, but you didn't."
What are you doing here now?
The young man across from them, who looked rather cheap, laughed and said, "Uncle He, wasn't Yuzhu pregnant back then?"
I really don't feel comfortable leaving her alone in our hometown.
As you know, neither I nor her parents have a good impression of her.
"If I'm not by her side, who knows what she'll think."
The fact that the young man called He Yuzhu "uncle" indicates that the two have a close relationship.
The young man spoke with a strong southern accent, but he tried to slow down his tone and pronounced his words quite clearly.
He Yuzhu rolled his eyes and said in a still irritable tone, "What did Yuzhu give birth to?"
Boy or girl?
“It’s a boy, Uncle He. The child is still too young. When he’s a little older next year, I’ll bring Yuzhu and the child to Beijing so you can take a look.” The young man didn’t seem to be bothered by He Yuzhu’s attitude and remained all smiles.
Hearing this, He Yuzhu finally stopped looking unhappy.
Damn it, these past few days, those small business owners in the big market down below must have cursed his ancestors hundreds of times already.
The accounting he did a while ago was essentially taking away a large portion of the money that everyone had earned.
Let's take Xu Damao as an example again.
Xu Damao initially purchased two hundred watches from legitimate channels in the south, but ended up selling four hundred of them.
Xu Damao then had to find a way to explain where the other two hundred yuan came from.
These things can't be accomplished by just talking about them.
The accounts must be able to reconcile.
The grey market goods he bought probably cost only about twenty yuan per piece.
Those that come through legitimate channels cost forty.
Either Xu Damao has money and can slowly sell off that batch of counterfeit goods.
And it cannot be sold through large market channels.
Either you have to replenish the stock right now and then realize the cash immediately.
The biggest problem with this is that it disrupts the market.
Only a small segment of people in Beijing are thinking about buying a digital watch.
People can buy goods from legitimate channels at fair or low prices outside.
Then the stalls in the big market will sell much less.
Xu Damao still has money in his pocket; the brands he owns haven't seen their prices drop in the market.
But the other vendors didn't have his resources.
Several of them almost ruined the brands they represented.
Regardless of the time or the product, most consumers buy when prices are rising and not when they are falling.
These days, electronic products have little technological content, and brand premium is practically nonexistent.
If people hear that the price of a certain brand or product has dropped in the market, they will definitely hold onto their money and wait and see.
Therefore, it's quite normal for He Yuzhu to be scolded.
Of course, He Yuzhu's reorganization wasn't without its benefits.
At least customers won't have to worry about buying counterfeit goods in the market anymore.
Some shady dealings can't be eliminated, but the overall atmosphere will be much better. (End of Chapter)
