"Director Wang, why are you free to come to my place today? Normally you wouldn't even come if I ask you to."
Wang Kongwen thought I was trying to avoid suspicion.
He is a cadre of the Ministry of Commerce, and he is always involved with Cao Weidong, which inevitably makes people gossip.
But the situation is different today...
Wang Kongwen laughed a few times, took the tea and took a sip. His mouth suddenly felt sweet and his eyes lit up.
"Mr. Cao, the tea you serve here is really good, much better than what I bought in the market."
Cao Weidong said with a smile.
"This is all high-quality tea bought directly from the place of origin. If you like to drink it, come here often. I will ask the staff to apply for a VIP card, and you can come to the private room upstairs as you like from now on."
"Then I won't be polite."
Wang Kongwen's eyes flashed with joy and envy.
The private rooms on the second and third floors of Shouzhengtang are tea rooms, which provide free tea service to VIP customers, which is a value-added service that enhances product value.
The Longjing tea, Pu'er tea, mountain tea, and various types of scented tea provided in the teahouse are all of excellent quality. Wang Kongwen has been coveting them for a long time.
The two chatted for a while and finally got down to business.
Wang Kongwen took out a bunch of keys from his briefcase and pushed it in front of Cao Weidong.
"Mr. Cao, this is the key to your apartment in the courtyard. We will get it back for you."
"By the way, Jia Banggan has cleared the house. We also ask the Jia family to restore the furnishings and furniture inside as much as possible. If you have time, you can go and have a look. If there is anything missing, just tell me."
Cao Weidong played with the key.
"What about the stick?"
"Oh, he's locked up. Speaking of which, this guy is really heartless. The police officer who handled the case told me that in order to evade his own responsibilities, Bangge actually put all the responsibilities on his mother...
.Well, that’s Qin Huairu, you should know him, Tingsuo is also an old resident of the courtyard.”
Wang Kongwen's face was full of disdain.
Cao Weidong was stunned for a moment.
"Is this how Qin Huairu confessed?"
In his understanding, Qin Huairu is not that easy to talk to. This woman is very calculating. She keeps sucking blood from Si Zhu's body and arranges Si Zhu clearly. It can be said that she is both cunning and scheming.
Wang Kongwen sneered.
"That's not true. I confessed on the spot and both of them were taken back."
"It's just that this woman is also stupid. Police comrades are not easy to deceive. In the end, she was found out after the trial, and she spent a few days in jail for perjury."
Cao Weidong suddenly burst into laughter.
Speaking of which, Qin Huairu only had some small tricks and was not on the stage at all. During the interrogation, the police comrades gave him a little scare and explained everything.
After the business is done, it’s time to talk about personal matters.
Wang Kongwen hesitated for a long time and finally said.
"Mr. Cao, I heard that Shouzhengtang is open to join."
Cao Weidong wondered.
"Yes, I didn't expect you to know about this."
Wang Kongwen thought to himself, not only do I know, but I also know your revenue after opening the franchise.
The ministry has always wanted to establish Shouzhengtang as a model, so it pays special attention to the operation status of Shouzhengtang.
As soon as Shouzhengtang opened its franchise, we collected intelligence receipts through various channels and compiled an internal report.
In these reports, all the data of Wang Chaoyang's franchise plan are almost accurately speculated.
At the end of this thick pile of reports, there is a bold number:
[The project is expected to make a profit of 5 million yuan.]
Net profit of 5 million!
You can't make this kind of money by yourself in a lifetime!
Moreover, some cadres in the ministry have calculated the sales volume of Shouzhengtang, and a rough estimate shows that there is a revenue of 300,000 to 400,000 yuan a month.
When he thought of this, Wang Kongwen couldn't help but feel jealous.
He has witnessed the entire process of Shouzhengtang from project implementation to opening.
But he never expected that in just less than a month, this kid would actually make so much money!
Wang Kongwen's mind became alive.
"I wonder if you still have a quota to join."
Cao Weidong was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, you want to..."
Wang Kongwen said bluntly.
"To be honest, I also plan to go into business. I have some money, but I don't know if it will be enough for your franchise fee."
In this era, it is a trend to go overseas to do business. On the one hand, there is policy support from the state. On the other hand, the threshold for starting a business is low at this time. People can earn the difference through self-production and sales, buying low and selling high, so many grassroots entrepreneurs
The chaos is flourishing.
Wang Kongwen has worked in the Ministry of Commerce for many years and has seen many such things, so he naturally wants to go into business.
Cao Weidong thought for a while and asked.
"Director Wang, let's open the skylight and tell the truth. How much money do you have?"
"I can probably raise 300,000."
Wang Kongwen felt that the franchise fee was enough.
However, Cao Weidong shook his head.
"Some are not enough."
Wang Kongwen was startled and asked eagerly.
"Mr. Cao, as far as I know, your first-level franchisees don't seem to have spent so much money. Why is it not enough for me?"
Cao Weidong said happily.
"Director Wang, if you simply want to join and open a store, this money will be enough, but if you want to make more, this money will not be enough."
Wang Kongwen repeated it doubtfully.
"Earn more?"
"Yes, have you ever wanted to be my city agent?"
"City...agent? Mr. Cao, what does this mean?"
Wang Kongwen stared at Cao Weidong with bright eyes, full of thirst for knowledge.
Cao Weidong tried his best to explain in a language that Wang Kongwen could understand.
"Franchising and agency are similar in some ways, but they are not exactly the same. To join is to pay a franchise fee and we provide various supports, but to be an agent I only provide goods. You need to recruit franchisees by yourself, or build your own sales
team."
"Agents generally have several levels. They can be at the provincial level, or at the municipal level, or at larger ones such as Central China and South China. In short, I will give you the franchise rights in this area and also provide you with
product."
Wang Kongwen's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Then if I want to become an agent, how much will it cost?"
Cao Weidong thought for a while and said.
"According to the size of the area, the agency fee is also different, but it is conservatively estimated to be one million."
Now.
A choice was placed in front of Wang Kongwen.
One side is to choose franchisees with lower risks and controllable returns, while the other side is to choose agents with greater risks but unknown returns.
Wang Kongwen thought for a long time, suddenly drank the almost cold tea in front of him and said loudly.
"Mr. Cao, I choose to become an agent. You wait for me to go home and collect the money."
Cao Weidong was very optimistic about Wang Kongwen.
This is a capable and ambitious man.
Moreover, he has worked in the commercial department for so many years, knows many people, has deep connections, and is worthy of becoming a long-term partner.
