"This classmate is really discerning!" Chen Xingquan's compliments came as soon as he opened his mouth, and then he started to lie:
"This is a new product our factory just launched last month, a plastic pencil case, specially designed for primary and secondary school students.
"Look, there is a loop for inserting pens in this bag. Several pens can be inserted without touching each other. This side of the bag is transparent. When you carry this bag during the exam, the teacher can tell at a glance that you have not inserted any pens.
Cheat sheet.
"Also, look at the pictures printed on this bag. They are so beautiful. We specially invited a master craftsman to paint these pictures. They have won awards in national art competitions..."
"Off topic, Boss Chen." Gao Fan interrupted Chen Xingquan's chatter with a smile and said, "We classmates just want to ask you how much this pencil case costs. Right, Chun..., uh, Huang
Monitor?"
Gao Fan's mouth slipped and he almost called the girl by her name like he would do in later generations. When the words came to his lips, he felt something was wrong, so he temporarily changed his official title in the class. Huang Chunyan is the monitor of Class 7, Grade 2,
Fang Rui is the secretary of the Youth League branch. When students of the opposite sex occasionally want to address each other, they use their job title instead of their first name, eliminating the embarrassment of calling each other by their first names.
When Huang Chunyan heard Gao Fan ask questions for her, she gave Gao Fan a look of thanks, then looked at Chen Xingquan, waiting for the other party's quotation.
When Chen Xingquan put the pile of plastic products on the table just now, Huang Chunyan took a fancy to this pencil case at a glance. As Chen Xingquan said, the design of this pencil case is really unique and its appearance is also very good-looking. Women are all
It is easy to be impressed by appearance, even for female high school students in this era. As soon as Huang Chunyan saw this pencil case, she had an urge to own one, so she didn't say anything to Fang Rui or Gao Fan.
Ask questions first when the situation arises.
Huang Chunyan has a tin pencil case, but it is a bit inconvenient to bring it with her when taking formal exams. The teacher will ask to open the pencil case to check whether there is any entrapment, and the ninety-nine multiplication table printed on the pencil case is strictly required.
It can be regarded as a kind of entrainment... What if you can't recite the multiplication table and want to copy it from the pencil box?
The college entrance examination is coming soon, and the requirements for the college entrance examination are more stringent. Maybe I really need a pencil case with a transparent window.
Well, in fact, this reason was just made up by Huang Chunyan to convince herself. She just simply liked this good-looking plastic bag.
"Do you all want to buy it?"
Chen Xingquan did not directly answer Huang Chunyan's words, but turned to look at Fang Rui and Gao Fan. At the same time, he reached out and took out several more pencil cases from his bag. The style was the same as the one Huang Chunyan took, but the colors and patterns were different. For example, among them
One has a main battle tank with five pairs of wheels printed on it, which is obviously aimed at attracting boys.
"If three of you want it, I'll only charge you 80 cents each." Chen Xingquan said.
"Ah? Three people want it, and it still costs 80 cents!" Huang Chunyan asked dissatisfiedly with her eyes widened.
Chen Xingquan said: "That's right. This kind of pencil case is very troublesome to make. I usually sell it for one yuan and two a piece. If you only want one, it will cost you at least one yuan."
This is moral kidnapping. If the two boys still have some sympathy for each other, they should agree to join a group with Huang Chunyan and negotiate the price. However, eighty cents for a pencil case is really not cheap, Fang Rui thought to himself.
Why would he be willing to buy it if he was taken advantage of? He turned to Gao Fan and wanted to form an offensive and defensive alliance with Gao Fan. If Gao Fan also expressed his unwillingness to buy, then it would mean that he did not give Huang Chunyan face, and he would not have any psychological pressure.<
/p>
"If we buy four, how much cheaper can you get?"
Before Gao Fan could respond to Fang Rui's hint, Zhang Wei, who had come over at some point, rushed to speak. There was a lot of fun here, so he asked Wen Xiaojian to come over and have a look. Of course, Wen Xiaojian was not inconvenienced.
They put him under house arrest, told him "don't be fooled", and let him go.
Zhang Wei also thought the pencil case that Chen Xingquan took out was very beautiful, but he was reluctant to spend seven or eight cents to buy one. However, Huang Chunyan clearly showed that she wanted it, and Chen Xingquan also claimed that if he bought it,
If the price is higher, we can give you a lower price. Of course Zhang Wei has to show it.
This is the self-cultivation of a licking dog.
"Four..." Chen Xingquan was stunned. He glanced at everyone and saw that neither Fang Rui nor Gao Fan was interested, so he said: "If you want four, I will sell them at a loss. How about seventy cents each?"
?"
"This is too expensive..."
Huang Chunyan put the pencil case back directly. Her family is an ordinary working-class family, and they are not rich enough to allow her to spend 70 cents to buy a pencil case. This does not mean that her family cannot afford 70 cents.
, but she felt that she wanted to buy it just because she liked the look of this pencil case, so spending seventy cents on it seemed too extravagant.
"It's still expensive..." Chen Xingquan muttered. Seeing that Huang Chunyan seemed to be burying his head in reading again, he asked: "So, classmate, how much do you think is appropriate?"
"...I can't say how much it will cost. Otherwise, I'd better not give it up." Huang Chunyan said calmly.
People say they usually sell for one dollar and a half, but the lowest price is seventy cents. How much can she bargain with? Even if she gets a discount, when it comes to thirty cents a piece, she still thinks it's a bit expensive and she will spend a lot of money buying it.
The guilt of money. As for talking about less than thirty cents, she can't open her mouth.
Having said that, the disappointment in her eyes cannot be concealed.
This pencil case is really beautiful...
"Boss Chen, tell me clearly. Just this pencil case, your production cost is no more than a dime, right?"
Gao Fan spoke. He originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Huang Chunyan's eyes made him feel a little intolerable. This didn't mean that he wanted to compete with Zhang Wei for the status of dog licker, but that in his previous life, he believed that men should protect themselves.
The dogma that girls have their vocation, especially when the girl is very beautiful.
"The cost? It's at least fifty cents." Chen Xingquan replied. He wanted to say it was higher, but he was afraid of being cheated, so he said a relatively low number.
"Fifty cents?" Gao Fan chuckled, "Boss Chen, you have to be honest when doing business. Let me tell you, this pencil case of yours is made of PVC, right? Soft PVC costs 4,000 yuan per ton.
Money, one pound is only 2 yuan. This pencil case of yours weighs half a pound, how can it cost more than 10 cents?"
"Uh..." Chen Xingquan was speechless for a while, and it took him a while to recover, and retorted: "You just calculated the price of PVC, we still have to process and print it. This is PVC, not
To print these paintings on paper, you need to use very high-end equipment..."
"No, you dare to say this is not screen printed. How advanced can screen printing be?" Gao Fan held a pencil case, shook it towards Chen Xingquan, and asked.
"Silk screen printing must be screen printing..." Chen Xingquan was defeated. The child in front of him knew a lot, so he was not so blinded.
In fact, the price of polyvinyl chloride and screen printing are not secrets. Many people in Renqiao know it. But who cares about this in other places? Chen Xingquan has been traveling all over the country to sell plastics in the past two years.
I haven't met many knowledgeable people in the product, so I just let him fool me.
But the half-year-old child in front of him could actually speak out this knowledge. How could he not surprise Chen Xingquan?
"Screen printing and screen printing are also different." Chen Xingquan said bravely, "However, printing on PVC is very troublesome and requires the use of special pigments, which are very expensive." p>
"Yeah, what you said is quite sincere." Gao Fan nodded in approval.
Chen Xingquan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Well, actually, the material used in this pencil case is really not that expensive. Your classmate is right. It's just printing on it, which is very troublesome. This pencil case is expensive."
, that’s why it’s so expensive.”
Unexpectedly, Gao Fan smiled slightly and said: "Boss Chen, how about we do a business? I will teach you a paint formula, and you will give us four for free..., ah no, five bags like this, I promise you
