"Boss Xia is a very capable person at first glance. I can't compare to him." Zheng Ruilin said with a smile.
While talking, Zheng Ruilin quickly made Xia Zekai a pot of green tea.
The two briefly chatted about the recent production and shipment volume of "children's toilets".
Zheng Ruilin seized the opportunity and quickly complained: "Boss Xia, your volume is growing too fast. I can't even react quickly. Also, your frequency of introducing new things is too fast. I'm tracking you specially."
Look, the shipment volume of the old model is still quite large, and the recognition rate of the old model in the market is still quite high. Can we take a breath first, otherwise my production line will not be able to take care of it."
"Really?" Xia Zekai asked casually.
Zheng Ruilin nodded: "Really, Boss Xia, look at how many white hairs I have gained on my head recently. It's all because of worry."
"Our output is large, so it doesn't matter. At worst, I will add more people to produce, but there are too many categories of products. I can't take care of them even if I add enough production lines to each category. I have been thinking about expanding the production line recently, but this
money……"
I understand, maybe because he saw Xia Zekai making money, he also wanted to add some money.
Xia Zekai was such a shrewd person that he immediately read the meaning of his words and said, "Oh, this matter is my problem. I didn't think carefully about it and didn't consider Boss Zheng's difficulties."
Zheng Ruilin felt happy and felt that Boss Xia was quite easy to talk to.
But the next moment, the smile on his face broke. Xia Zekai said: "Since Boss Zheng is having production difficulties, I can't put all the pressure on you. Let me take some time and find another one."
When I find the OEM factory, I will take some of the more complex products to other OEM factories for processing. Boss Zheng, do you think this arrangement will work?"
Zheng Ruilin also wondered whether Xia Zekai would take the initiative to increase the cost price, but he never expected that Xia Zekai would do this.
This obviously means that if you don’t want to do it, I’ll find someone else to do it. If you want to increase the money, there’s no way!
"Boss Xia, we have always cooperated well, right?" Zheng Ruilin asked him with a grimace.
Xia Zekai nodded. He did not deny this, but it was unethical to just add money halfway.
He said: "Boss Xia, to be honest, I am just making hard money now. The factory will increase production and production lines, and continue to recruit people. Raw materials are also on the rise in price, so you have to consider it."
Let me know my cost."
"Boss Zheng, I'm not kidding you either. It's up to you to raise the price, but you should also notice that there are more and more people making this thing in the market. The price competition is too fierce. Now the price has been reduced."
What's going on? I'm considering lowering the price here. It's okay if you don't lower the cost for me. Are you going to raise it for me today?"
"Besides, the current market price trend of PVC and CPE is declining. According to the cyclical nature, the probability of rising in the next year is low. Are you telling me that the price of raw materials has increased?" Xia Zekai blinked. He would now
A standard business model.
With a fierce look on his face, if you dare to raise the price, I will tear you apart.
Zheng Ruilin had forgotten that the young man in front of him was once a colleague of Li Jinchuan. He was also a salesman of dry plastic granule additives...
"Yeah, it seems that I remembered it wrong. I'll look at it later, but Boss Xia has continuously launched new products, and our factory's mold opening frequency is very high, so the cost of this is indeed very high." Zheng Ruilin
After explaining it, it kind of gave each other a step up.
Xia Zekai nodded and said with a smile: "I also understand this. Don't worry, Boss Zheng. In the next period of time, we will mainly maintain market stability and will postpone the development of new products."
Zheng Ruilin nodded along and said, "Based on my experience, it is enough for Boss Xia to launch three to five new products every year. More is not good. It also gives the market time to slowly accept it."
"After all, this business is still a steady stream."
…
Going to Ruilin Plastic was not a pleasant experience overall, but it is normal to have disputes. Everyone wants to make more money, and this is understandable.
But this incident also reminded Xia Zekai that there are still big problems in using Ruilin Plastic as an OEM factory, which will make him very passive at critical moments.
One is that the other party's production capacity is always limited. He can arrange more production, but the peak value is fixed, and he will not replace all of his production capacity with Xia Zekai's products.
The second is to concentrate all products on one foundry, which is very risky.
If something doesn't come to an agreement and the other party says it's time to give up, Xia Zekai will have no place to cry.
"Well, this incident reminded me that I should develop two more OEM factories to prevent any problems from happening in the end." Xia Zekai thought about it in his mind.
At noon, Xia Zekai went out alone to find a fast food restaurant with the slogan "Shanxian Mutton Soup Restaurant" and ordered a large bowl of haggis, which cost only 5 yuan. The large fried cake made by Liang Jiao shop cost 3 yuan.
Yuan per pound.
While eating, I was thinking about finding another OEM.
This matter could not be delayed. Before he finished his meal, he called Xue Chen and asked him to come directly to the factory tomorrow morning.
Xue Chen didn't know what happened, but the boss summoned him personally. He didn't dare to delay and agreed immediately.
After finishing a large bowl of haggis soup and two dimes of pancakes, Xia Zekai felt warm all over, and there was a little sweat on his forehead, which was really comfortable.
Checking the time, it was not yet one o'clock, so he went to the factory again.
I stayed there until about three o'clock in the afternoon and then left.
What Xia Zekai didn't expect was that when he returned to Qiyun Kindergarten, he found that the old security guard Wang Deshun was back.
"Old Wang, have you just come back?" Xia Zekai was quite happy to see him and said hello.
When Wang Deshun saw Xia Zekai, he reluctantly smiled and said, "Xiao Xia, you are here."
"Hey, what's going on? You're smiling a bit ugly." Xia Zekai asked in a teasing tone.
Wang Deshun was immediately asked about it. He sighed and said, "My eldest sister is gone."
"I've been staying with her for more than half a month, but she still couldn't survive it and finally left." Wang Deshun looked a little sad and lonely.
Xia Zekai didn't know what to say at this moment. He opened his mouth and finally said: "Old Wang, my condolences!"
"Well, I'm fine." Wang Deshun seemed to have found someone to talk to. He had a lot to say, but it wasn't the right time. He said, "Xiao Xia, are you free tonight? I'll treat you to a meal."
Come on, let’s have a good chat.”
After he finished speaking, he remembered that Xia Zekai was the big boss now and should be very busy at ordinary times, so he quickly said: "If you are busy, just have social activities."
"It's okay. I've always said I'd treat you to dinner, but I never kept it. It's better to hurry up than to hurry up. Tonight is mine." Xia Zekai agreed with a smile.
Wang Deshun still wanted to argue, so Xia Zekai said: "If you insist, then next time, we must have a sequence."
The bell rang for the end of school, and within a short time, the children's cries of "Ahhh" came from the kindergarten teaching building, and the sound was full of joy.
Xia Zekai walked forward in line with the crowd, and soon he caught up with Yatou and Tongtong. He also asked Wang Deshun: "Old Wang, when will you get off work?"
"Five o'clock, no later than five thirty." Wang Deshun said.
Xia Zekai knew it well. He pointed to the west end of the street and said, "Let's go to the pepper fried chicken restaurant over there. What kind of wine do you want to drink? I'll go back and get it."
"It doesn't matter, I have an average drinking capacity." Wang Deshun finally said.
When Yatou and Tongtong heard that their father was going to have a meal and drink with this 'Grandpa Wang', they wanted to follow him. Tongtong said, "Dad, I want to go too."
"I'll go too." The girl shouted after him.
Seeing the cheerfulness of the two sisters, Wang Deshun felt much better from the depression caused by the death of his eldest sister.
He said: "You all go."
Xia Zekai took his two daughters home first. He washed their hands and faces, and changed into clean thick clothes. It was almost five o'clock, and Xia Zekai took them out on foot.
First, he went to the basement to get two bottles of wine. Xia Zekai also didn't forget to call his wife and tell her to come back later and go directly to the fried chicken restaurant with peppers in the back to eat.
He and Tongtong were brought back.
As people get older, most of them will feel sad after drinking some wine, and some sad past events will easily come to mind, and their speech will become sticky.
This was the first time for him to have dinner with Wang Deshun. He didn't know whether Wang Deshun would be the same, but it didn't stop him from making this plan in advance.
When passing by the entrance of the kindergarten, he saw Wang Deshun still guarding the two children who had not been picked up. He knew that Lao Wang would definitely have to work overtime today.
"Hey, this business is not easy to work in. It looks pretty fast, but you have to work overtime from time to time." Xia Zekai thought to himself.
He shouted to Wang Deshun: "Old Wang, I'll wait for you in the store."
"Okay." Wang Deshun responded.
Yatou and Tongtong happily followed their father, swinging their little arms, and they kept asking: "Dad, what should we eat?"
"Dad, I want to eat meat."
"Dad, is mom coming?"
The two little sisters had a lot of questions, and Xia Zekai patiently answered them one by one.
When the three of them came over, the proprietress of the store was sitting on a horse at the door. When she saw Xia Zekai coming with his two daughters, she quickly stood up to say hello.
"Brother, here you are. I haven't seen you for a long time. What do you want to eat today? How many people are there? I can arrange it for you."
"Hey, these two are our little princesses. They are so cute. I almost want to snatch one of them and take it back as my daughter-in-law." said the landlady.
Xia Zekai looked at the giant snow-white mound that trembled up and down whenever she spoke or moved her body. He couldn't help but worry about her. Don't be careful and jump out of the clothes.
This cute white rabbit is really frightening.
"Sister, let's fry 3 kilograms of chicken first, and then have the fish with pickled vegetables. The fish should be a big one. We'll order the other dishes later." Xia Zekai ordered the dishes smoothly.
The landlady said "Oh" and said, "Okay, you go up to the second floor and find a place to sit down. I'll let them do it right away."
The boss lady's murderous weapon was so threatening that Xia Zekai didn't dare to stay any longer. He said, "Then let's go up first."
It was not yet dinner time, and there was only one table in the store, sitting in the southeast corner of the first floor where the air conditioner was.
There was a large pot of chicken in a stainless steel basin on the table. The three of them had two bottles of beer each with their lids off and placed them in front of them.
"Dad, it smells so good." Tongtong twitched her little nose and said happily.
Xia Zekai smiled and nodded: "Then you can eat more later."
"Okay, okay, I really like chicken." Tongtong didn't know what politeness meant.
Passing by the kitchen, Xia Zekai remembered something and shouted: "Sister, don't put the chili pepper in. My daughter doesn't eat chili pepper."
"Okay, brother, don't worry!" The lady boss made an 'OK' gesture.
The three of them went up to the second floor. Xia Zekai chose a table by the window and sat down. There was a folding screen in the middle of each table, so it didn't look cluttered.
Xia Zekai first washed the four sets of cups and boiled them with hot water. He and his wife each had one set, Lao Wang had one set, and his two daughters had one set for drinking water, otherwise the table would be full of
I've got a cup, just listen to the symphony of the cup's beating later, nothing else.
After washing, Xia Zekai poured water into the cups of the two girls and his wife to cool down, and then waited slowly.
Tongtong asked: "Dad, is it coming soon? Why don't we see the chicken yet?"
"Come on, come on, you're hungry. What's the food for lunch in your kindergarten? We paid for it, so why haven't we paid for it yet?" Xia Zekai finally caught the opportunity. He was going to use the topic as an excuse. If there was something fishy,
He ensured that Teacher Tian Qing would not be able to come to Taiwan.
But Tongtong groaned and said, "I'm full, but now I'm hungry again."
"Are you a little piggy?" Xia Zekai pointed at the tip of his dick's onion tip and said with a smile.
Tongtong was unhappy, and raised her little hand to slap her father's hand, humming: "You are a pig, I am not."
The three of them laughed and joked for more than 20 minutes. Finally, Lao Wang came over. Both Yatou and Tongtong called out to Grandpa Wang.
Xia Zekai asked him to order a few dishes, and Lao Wang reluctantly ordered a vinegar-crusted potato shreds and a flavored eggplant. He still couldn't put it down, so he picked the cheaper ones.
When Xia Zekai saw how it turned out, he added sweet and sour pork tenderloin, twice-cooked pork, and ordered carrot sweet potatoes for the girls, which they just had fun eating.
"Ouch, there are too many." Wang Deshun said.
Xia Zekai said: "My wife will be here later, so she can't eat and take it away."
Luo Xiyun arrived at around 5:40. When she came over, fried chicken with fresh pepper and fish with pickled cabbage had just been served, and several other dishes were almost served. There was a full table. Yatou and Tongtong couldn't wait to wait.
I want to eat carrots.
"Mom, I'll eat that sweet one." The girl pointed at the shredded sweet potato and wouldn't let go.
Luo Xiyun was busy with work, and Wang Deshun reached out to pick up the carrot and put it in front of Luo Xiyun, saying, "Let them eat slowly."
Xia Zekai opened the liquor he brought over and said, "Lao Wang, knock down the well, I think this wine is pretty good."
Wang Deshun nodded with a smile: "This is pretty good. It's low in alcohol. I like to drink it. If you get it high, I really can't drink it."
Xia Zekai smiled: "Okay, let's drink it slowly, don't be in a hurry."
Luo Xiyun and his wife were asked to eat first. Xia Zekai and Wang Deshun were not in a hurry and drank slowly.
