Chapter 26 Double-tier Contracting
In the following time, Zhao Liming and others continued to do their part, serving 12 warehouses.
Yang Wendong continued to try to get new customers. With the agreements signed with other warehouses and letters of introduction from two of the warehouses, Yang Wendong successfully won the services of 9 more warehouses.
Of course there were many failures, forty or fifty in total. Many people did not take Yang Wendong's request seriously at all, or in other words, Yang Wendong didn't even have a chance to go in and meet their leaders.
This is how business is done. Yang Wendong’s success rate of nearly 20% is actually considered high. This is also because rat infestation is a problem for everyone.
On the other hand, I learned from Elena that several households related to the Hong Kong government have directly established rodent control companies.
However, Elena doesn’t know the other party’s specific information.
Until one day, Zhao Liming came over and said: "Brother Dong, someone found me and wanted to pay 80 Hong Kong dollars a month to hire me to kill rats."
"Oh, so Found you soon?" Yang Wendong felt happy and asked with a smile.
Zhao Liming said: "Yes, a man, almost 30 years old, came directly to the door of Henry's warehouse, blocked me, negotiated terms with me, and wanted me to go to their company, but I ignored him .”
"Well, it seems that they have also discovered that it is not easy to be professional in catching mice." Yang Wendong said with a smile.
In the era when there was no Internet for inquiry, no one knew anything about anything that was not an unfamiliar field. Even for simple things like cooking, novices didn’t know how to start or how to control it. Heat time.
Without the guidance of a master, in many industries it would take a frighteningly long time to go from novice to experienced, or even impossible at all.
No one is short of mouse-catching tools. If you have money, you can buy them. Whether it is a mouse trap, a mouse trap or the mouse trap made by Yang Wendong, there is actually not much difference. Many things existed thousands of years ago in ancient times. There you have it.
But since ancient times, many warehouses and families have been troubled by rats. Mobilizing manpower to catch rats can only suppress them in the short term. Once the intensity drops in the later period, rats will inevitably come back.
Zhao Liming said: "It's definitely okay for me, Yiyi and Haoyu, but it's not necessarily the case for the other people. The money given by the other party is so much. It would be strange for these people not to be tempted.
Although I also I listen to you and don’t teach them much anymore, but if you watch us doing things every day, if you are really smart, you can learn a lot.”
Yang Wendong said with a smile: “This kind of thing. , you can't stop them. If they really learn, they can't get 100 points, but 60 points is still okay. We must also need manpower, otherwise we won't be able to build so many warehouses.
The other party must have more than us. Money, so it can't be stopped, but we don't need to stop it."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Liming asked in confusion.
Yang Wendong said: "Did the person who was looking for you today give you his contact information?"
Zhao Liming quickly took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Yang Wendong, and said: "Brother Dong, this is what he gave me He asked me to think carefully about calling him, but we don’t have a phone number either.”
Yang Wendong took a look at the business card and said with a smile: “Let’s go out and find a public phone booth and make a call.” ”
Telephones in this era are still luxury goods. Those who install telephones are usually companies. Ordinary people can just go to the phone booth to make a call. Even to answer the phone, they have to make an appointment in advance and then wait.
When Yang Wendong arrived at the phone booth and waited in line for a while, he discovered that the phone was actually a rotary dial phone like those in TV dramas of the Republic of China. He studied it for a while before using it.
"Beep beep~~~" After the phone rang a few times, the other party answered. Yang Wendong said: "Hello, I want to see Mr. Wang Zhixian."
"Okay, wait a minute." The person on the other end of the phone answered After the girl finished speaking, after a while, a male voice came: "Who?"
Yang Wen Dong said with a smile: "Today, you met my colleague, and you wanted to invite him to work at your place." "Oh." The opponent said with a smile: "Then why did you call me? Where are the others? Wait. Wait, are you his colleague?”
“To be precise, it’s the boss,” Yang Wendong replied.
"." The other party on the phone was silent for a while, and then a voice came: "Then why did you call me?"
Yang Wendong said: "I want to meet with your boss?"
“With our boss?” Phone call The opponent said: "This is impossible. I am the current person in charge of the company. If you tell me clearly what is going on, I may be able to see you, but the boss is impossible."
"That's okay, I I think we can cooperate," Yang Wendong said.
“Cooperation?” There was a hint of doubt in the voice on the other end of the phone. After a while, he said, “Okay, you can make an appointment somewhere.”
Yang Wendong said: "Tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning, there is a Yunduo Tea Restaurant on Yinghua Road, Tsim Sha Tsui. Let's meet there."
"Okay." After saying this, the person on the phone hung up the phone.
Zhao Liming next to him asked in confusion: "Brother Dong, he and we are competitors, right? Why did you ask him to meet?"
"Of course there is business to do." Yang Wendong smiled and said: "I have been studying well recently. I can say four words about my competitors. I will continue to do it later. Don't relax and study when you have a little money."
"Well, okay. Brother Dong." Zhao Liming nodded and agreed.
At ten o'clock the next morning, Yunduo Tea Restaurant:
Yang Wendong and Zhao Liming had been waiting here for a long time. After a while, the Wang Zhixian they were waiting for also arrived.
"Hello, Mr. Wang." Yang Wendong said formally.
His financial income has been much better during this period, so he also changed into some better clothes for himself and those around him. They are not very expensive, but at least they are not old or shabby, just for the sake of possible business in the future. meet.
When his career gradually becomes bigger, this situation will appear sooner or later.
Wang Zhixian smiled and shook hands and said, "Yang Wendong? I found some information about you. I have to say that I admire you for being able to build such a business in an environment like a squatter."
"Excellent." Yang Wendong smiled. In any society, generally speaking, people who make their own money are more admired. In later generations, he also admired Rebus and the other brother Dong.
After Wang Zhixian sat down, he asked: "We are in a competitive relationship. Logically speaking, it is not good to meet each other. If you have anything, just tell us directly."
Yang Wendong nodded and said: "Well, I want to cooperate with you."
Wang Zhixian asked: "How to cooperate?"
Yang Wendong said: "You have the relationship, I have the ability, we cooperate, perfect coordination.
Without cooperation, it will be difficult for you to deal with so many rats in the warehouse, and it may be difficult for me to expand my business. , This is a lose-lose outcome."
Wang Zhixian thought for a while and asked: "So, do you want to contract the warehouse that we have already contracted?"
