Neither Ning Weimin nor Zhang Shihui were bothered by the feeling of embarrassment for long.
Because besides the fact that the two of them are as thick-skinned as a city wall.
The key is because the plan to make money attracts their thoughts.
Since "If you don't make money, you will die" is hanging in their house, it is only right to find a rake to collect money quickly.
Neither Ning Weimin nor Zhang Shihui wasted any time until they made an appointment with Luo Guangliang and the other bosses.
They talked to Huang Xinyuan on the phone, and then took people, cars, and money to the tobacco and alcohol branch to get the goods.
The procedures for picking up the goods were all approved by a note written by Huang Xinyuan himself.
However, Ning Weimin did not take the opportunity to ask Huang Xinyuan to take more care of him when it came to the proportion of tobacco and alcohol tie-ins.
For no other reason than that, he thinks long term.
After all, when dealing with someone for the first time, you have to be completely reassured and free of psychological burden before you can gradually go deeper.
Therefore, overall the tying conditions are more favorable than those of tobacco and alcohol companies.
Roughly, for every one hundred cartons of Class D cigarettes and Class E cigarettes, twelve cartons of Class B cigarettes or three cartons of Class A cigarettes can be sold together.
For every one hundred cartons of Class C cigarettes, eight cartons of Class B cigarettes or two cartons of Class A cigarettes can be sold together.
Liquor is one hundred bottles of ordinary bottled liquor, which can be paired with twelve bottles of high-quality liquor, twenty-four bottles of bottled beer, or four bottles of famous wine.
So based on this guideline, Ning Weimin started the purchase.
As soon as he took action, he took Zhang Shihui and ate twenty boxes of Class D cigarettes, twenty boxes of Class E cigarettes, ten boxes of Class C cigarettes, and three hundred boxes of ordinary liquor.
It must be noted here that in the tobacco industry, "box" is an easily confused concept.
One is calculated based on the physical packaging carton.
Fifty cartons of cigarettes are placed in a box, but the tobacco industry does not call them "boxes" but "pieces".
The other is the statistical concepts that appear in reports.
This "box" is literal, referring to two hundred and fifty cartons of cigarettes, or a unit of five "pieces" of cigarettes.
So this means that what Ning Weimin uses is the "box" on the statistical table.
This guy spent 20,000 yuan on his first purchase, and consumed 12,500 cartons of cigarettes and 3,600 bottles of wine in one go.
If you add in the 350 cartons of Class A cigarettes and 12 boxes of famous wines allotted to him, then the purchase price will probably have to add another five to six thousand yuan in cash.
Needless to say, for a self-employed person, that is really a big deal!
But even though the purchase volume is so large, what is even more strange is that Ning Weimin's way of allocating goods is really weird.
For example, Ning Weimin ate 10,000 cigarettes that few people want nowadays, such as Class D and Class E cigarettes.
A pack of Class C cigarettes cost more than 20 cents, which is relatively easy to sell, but Ning Weimin only ordered 2,500 cigarettes.
What about the best-selling products with the highest sales volume on the market and the most popular products among the people - Class B cigarettes and high-quality wines?
Ning Weimin could obviously buy a lot through tie-in sales, but he didn't want any.
Moreover, when it came to the tying share, he focused exclusively on Greater China and Moutai, and did not consider anything else.
To put it bluntly, this is called playing at both ends! It’s too extreme!
Even the warehouse manager responsible for arranging goods for him was worried about Ning Weimin.
I can't help but wonder to myself, can this... make money?
He even couldn't help but give some words of advice, suggesting that Ning Weimin should make progress in every possible way.
But the most amazing thing is that Ning Weimin was as determined as if he had eaten a weight.
Not only does he insist on having his own way and is unmoved at all, but he also has another requirement that can be called a quirk when purchasing goods.
That is, the tobacco and alcohol he buys are imported products and only products from the capital are local.
For example, let’s take a light-mouthed cigarette that costs less than 10 cents.
In fact, there are many such as fighting, green leaves, mixed leaves, Nongfeng, double rabbits, spring plowing, I-shaped, economy, red orange, thrift, sunflower and so on.
But Ning Weimin only entered Yudaiqiao, Dayan, and Shuanghe, the products of the Beijing cigarette factory.
Similar to Beihai, which has just been discontinued, there are of course more filter cigarettes on the market that cost around 23 cents.
For example, workers and peasants, large-scale production, Pegasus, Haihe, etc. are countless.
But without Beihai, Ning Weimin only had Qingquan, Huanghe and Badaling, the three products still produced by the Beijing cigarette factory.
The same goes for wine.
Ning Weimin wanted Hongxing Winery, Niulanshan Winery, Daxing Winery, and the most common Erguotou.
And it's impartial, a hundred boxes of the same.
Good guy, in this way, the types of tobacco and alcohol that Ning Weimin hoards have nothing to do with the word "rich".
It would be an understatement to say that it goes against common sense and the goods are terribly dull.
Being so rich and willful can really make people dizzy.
The warehouse manager has worked all his life and has never come across anyone distributing goods like this.
Finally, I received dozens of wads of cash, stamped with shipping stamps and transportation permits.
All he could do was look in awe and send Ning Weimin and his party out the door as if they were looking at two fools.
The subsequent reaction was that when Huang Xinyuan saw the distribution list handed over by the warehouse manager, he couldn't help but call Ning Weimin and asked him about the abnormal distribution of tobacco and alcohol with great concern.
One is curious about why they do this.
Second, he was afraid that he and his friends did not understand the tobacco and alcohol business and would cause irreparable losses.
But Ning Weimin was good at speaking, and he had already prepared suitable words to deal with Huang Xinyuan.
He claims that he only buys local tobacco and alcohol in the capital, because he believes that being able to deal with more local unsaleable goods will help Huang Xinyuan's work and reduce the pressure he is under.
After all, sugar, tobacco, and alcohol companies are responsible to the Beijing government, and the backlog of local products and the backlog of foreign goods are certainly not the same concept.
As for sales, Ning Weimin and Huang Xinyuan don't have to worry. He claims to use his connections in the clothing system to make connections.
These tobacco and alcohol can be absorbed by some factories as workers' benefits.
As for the share of the tie-in, he only wants Greater China and Moutai?
Ning Weimin said it was prepared for a business banquet hosted by Pierre Carton Company.
Their company's standards for entertaining guests are relatively high, and of course they must use the best things, so other domestic tobacco and alcoholic beverages are not considered.
These words were so comprehensive that they confused Huang Xinyuan.
That's right when I think about it, Ning Weimin's identity and background are laid out here.
Someone with some connections can tell me, can the cigarette shop business be the same as that of ordinary self-employed people?
Let alone others, no one else can handle such a large amount of goods.
So Huang Xinyuan was not only relieved, but also very happy that Ning Weimin could think about him.
But in fact, according to Ning Weimin's own little notebook, the accounts were not calculated this way.
And he was willing to tell the truth only to Zhang Shihui.
No, it was on the dark and windy night when I brought the goods back, under a dim little lamp in the warehouse in the backyard of Huanghuamen.
Ning Weimin was extremely satisfied when he saw the cigarettes and wine filling several rooms.
Taking advantage of her happiness, she revealed her heart and patiently and detailedly answered Zhang Shihui's relevant questions with great excitement.
"Brother, you don't have to worry at all, it's just a backlog of 20,000 yuan. After eating these, you can buy us 5,000 to 6,000 yuan of good cigarettes and wine. How can this not be a good deal? Come on,
I'll give you a good calculation and you'll know."
"Let's first talk about how much profit can be made from the normal sales of more than 20,000 yuan of tobacco and alcohol. If we estimate it at a large scale, it can't exceed 10%, right? Well, let's calculate it as a profit of 2,000 yuan.
But if you count the pretty items for sale, the purchase price is more than 5,000, so doubling the profit is not a problem, right? This is the minimum. If Jing'er is right, doubling the profit is not
impossible."
"Of course, there is still a backlog of 20,000 yuan. We have to sell it, so that we can really take advantage. But in my opinion, it is not difficult to solve this problem. Yes,
Normally, it’s hard to sell. But have you forgotten the magic trick I did to sell shoes in the first few days?”
"The overstock of 20,000 yuan, we will treat it all as Jiefang shoes. According to me, how much money we brought in will be paid out, and we may not make a penny at all. As long as the price is cheap, the unsalable goods will be gone soon.
It can become a best-seller. Don’t your worries disappear? Everyone knows that small profits but quick turnover are so stingy. Let’s simply make an upgraded version and lower it to the bottom, making it no profit but quick turnover.”
"Don't feel panic about the loss yet. For example, take these mouthless cigarettes, Dayan and Shuanghe. If you calculate the purchase price by items, one is 70 cents and the other is 90 cents. Even if you charge 75 cents or 90 cents,
If you sell seven cigarettes, you'll only earn a few cents in profit. If you retail, you'll only earn a penny or a few cents from a pack of cigarettes."
"We are not ordinary self-employed people. How can we work so hard to make small money? Can we afford it? We can't afford to waste the time on this. If we really do this, it will be a real loss, and it will directly reduce the value of your and my labor.
Ah. We make money from Greater China and Maotai. With this time, we should sell these products as quickly as possible to raise funds to purchase goods, so that we can get more interesting products for tying."
"Besides, if we give up this small profit and don't make this money, it will be very different for the buyer. Because people who are willing to smoke like this really take every penny seriously.
They are definitely willing to buy our bargains, even if they are far away from us. People like Huanghe and Badaling, who only pay 20 cents for a pack of cigarettes, have very limited financial conditions, and most of them just save money to buy color TVs.
If they buy a pack of our cigarettes, they can save two or three cents, at least one yuan a month. Isn't it attractive to them?"
