Chapter 426 Repurchase of Tobacco and Alcohol
Unlike Ning Weimin, who tried his best to pretend to be a grandson, Zhang Shihui was high-spirited and passionate after the holiday.
Nothing else, except that he really bought a Jialing CJ70 for 2,600.
Replacing cars with motorcycles allows you to enjoy the speed of motor vehicles.
It was also because Sister Tan was watching over the Huimin Cigarette Hotel that he was finally able to free up his hands to work on the stagnant tobacco and alcohol repurchase business.
There is no doubt that for any industry, the most effective way to promote your business is advertising.
But unfortunately, the business of buying back tobacco and alcohol falls into a gray category.
If you really want to be serious, follow the relevant regulations on tobacco and alcohol monopoly.
The buyback of tobacco and alcohol is completely an out-of-scope operation that evades taxes and harms national interests.
If the sugar, tobacco and alcohol companies and the industrial and commercial tax department knew about this kind of thing.
If you don't do it right, you'll be punished, or even shut down for rectification.
So there is absolutely no possibility of placing an advertisement in a newspaper openly.
Don’t say that any newspaper’s advertising department will not pass the review.
Even if it passes, the side effects of widespread advertising may be too much to bear.
So what should we do?
Fortunately, Ning Weimin's business card provided inspiration for Zhang Shihui.
This kid had an idea and mastered the art of placing small advertisements without any teacher.
First of all, Zhang Shihui used Ning Weimin's business card as a model, went to a nearby school-run printing factory, and proposed to print two thousand small cards like business cards.
What he asked for was simple.
In addition to the slogan "Sincerely looking for high-end tobacco and alcohol, please call or come to inquire", there is the address and phone number of Huimin Cigarette Hotel.
But what surprised him was that although it was just a small school-run factory.
But the management of this kind of thing is quite strict. If there is no proof from the unit, people can’t print it.
As a result, he had to run an extra leg.
It wasn’t until I got the cigarette shop’s license and showed it to the small factory that they were willing to take the job.
After I got the card, I just couldn’t find where to send it.
Zhang Shihui is also particularly wise in this regard.
He knows that targeted delivery is the best way.
So I rode the motorcycle I just bought to the dormitory compound of various agencies and ministries nearby, and "swept the buildings" one by one.
The reason is very simple, because only these special groups have more opportunities to receive gifts, and there will be tobacco and alcohol at home that cannot be consumed.
Not to mention, this kind of card is really convenient. Whether it is at the bottom of the door or in the crack of the door, you can just insert it. It is very convenient.
And the response is really good.
In just three days, business came to us.
Since then, the reception room behind the Huiminyan Hotel has finally come into use.
And since then, the volume of tobacco and alcohol recycling business has been increasing day by day.
Some people came directly to the door with cigarettes and alcohol according to the card address, some called to inquire about the situation, and some hoped that the cigarette shop would send someone to the door to discuss it in person.
Needless to say, under this momentum, the specific gains are of course very gratifying.
In just about a week, the cigarette shop collected more than 60 cartons of high-end cigarettes and more than 80 bottles of fine wine, with a total value of about 1,500.
Especially for wine, there are two bottles of "Old Feitian" Moutai produced before 1966, and two bottles of "Huangjiang" special Moutai produced in 1972.
Just because of this, Zhang Shihui couldn't help but want to stretch out her arms and shout "Niu Bigras"!
You know, you have to help the Sugar Industry Tobacco and Liquor Company sell cheap tobacco and alcohol worth 10,000 yuan in exchange for high-end goods worth about 2,500 yuan.
However, even if Zhang Shihui works hard to sell goods, his monthly sales will never exceed 30,000.
This is equivalent to saying that this was the ceiling of his original business.
It would be great if we could exchange for high-end tobacco and alcohol worth five to six thousand through sales.
But this week, the goods he obtained through repurchase alone were equivalent to doubling his purchase volume.
Although the types of these goods are somewhat scattered.
The price is based on the official retail price, which is a 19% discount. In fact, it is almost the same as purchasing directly.
But the key is that this kind of recycling business is easy, efficient and has great potential.
No matter which angle you look at it, it is a qualitative change.
Far superior to the stupid method of obtaining quotas by sales in the past.
Don’t forget, buying back tobacco and alcohol has just begun. The situation in the future will undoubtedly be better than now.
No matter what, doubling profits is almost within reach, maybe even double or triple.
This is such a bargain!
Can Zhang Shihui not be beautiful?
Of course, on the other hand, the repurchase business has really started.
Now Zhang Shihui understands the true intention of many of Ning Weimin's original arrangements.
For example, in the past, Zhang Shihui always felt that the address of the Cigarette Hotel was not ideal, while Ning Weimin's choice was a bit tame.
There were no people on this street. No matter how he thought about it, he didn't think it looked like a place to do business.
In fact, when it first opened, only nearby residents came to visit, and it couldn’t do much business from passers-by.
But it’s different now.
Because Zhang Shihui not only found that the remoteness of this street was of great benefit to the wholesale business of tobacco and alcohol.
As soon as the free market closes every day, the farmers who want to take their goods home can gather in front of the store at will to sort, pick up, and pick up the goods without disturbing others.
The most important thing is the location of Huanghuamen Street, right between Dongsi, Xisi, Gulou, Beixinqiao and Deshengmen.
These areas are all ministries and commissions, surrounded by various government agencies and their dormitories.
This means sufficient supply of goods and convenient transportation.
Whether it’s customers coming or him visiting, it’s not always convenient. In addition, this kind of thing requires secrecy.
Of those who came to deliver cigarettes and alcohol for business, except for the young man who came to sell his parents’ things behind his back, everyone knew how to keep a low profile.
So the shortcomings turned into advantages.
As far as the tobacco and alcohol repurchase business is concerned, there is actually no place more suitable than here.
For another example, the northern part of the backyard was decorated so decently and comfortably.
In fact, Zhang Shihui disagreed earlier.
But because he was the biggest beneficiary of being stationed here for a long time, he didn't say anything
But now he is increasingly discovering the necessity of this backyard.
Don’t talk about the benefits of ensuring confidentiality, just say that the snobbery in this world is too serious.
The people who come to sell cigarettes and alcohol are all well-dressed people who are not willing to do business with people they don’t trust.
Why do people trust him so readily and become his repeat customers?
Isn’t it because the hotel has a telephone and a decent waiting room?
This kind of strength has become his most effective business credit guarantee certificate.
Otherwise, this business would never be able to get on the right track so quickly.
So based on the above two points, he still had to admit that his cleverness was still not up to par with Ning Weimin's foresight.
Finally, there is the hiring of Sister Tan. Zhang Shihui was very "eye-catching" at first.
Ah thinks that Ning Weimin is a good person and sincerely makes him uncomfortable.
Who would want such a person?
But later, it also felt different.
Because although Sister Tan has a disabled appearance that makes people uncomfortable to look at, she is diligent, careful and has a good memory.
He actually took care of the cigarette shop in an orderly manner, completely liberating Zhang Shihui, and made him a good assistant.
But now, Sister Tan’s excellent eloquence has been revealed again.
When Zhang Shihui is away, whether she answers the phone or receives customers who come to her door, she can always calm the customers and calm their impatience.
No matter how difficult it is, you can still make an appointment with them, when will we talk next time, and leave their contact information.
Even this eldest sister is very clear about the meaning of this.
I actually said to Zhang Shihui during a chat, "You two bosses are both good people and smart people. I'm sure that our tobacco shop will get bigger and bigger. You two will definitely make a fortune."< br>
"Why am I sure? Hey, it's obvious. I'm not confused. Nowadays, there are too many articles about eating and drinking and giving gifts through the back door in newspapers. Although it is criticism, it can explain What? It means there are many people giving gifts. It’s not certain how many people are not listed, right? This is certainly a good thing for our business.”
“To put it bluntly, there are two sides: those who give gifts and those who receive gifts. What we do is to collect it from the recipient at a low price, and then sell it to the giver at a higher price. Although this gift is still a gift, we keep the difference in price. This is a guaranteed sweet deal, how can you not make a fortune?"
"But I have to say more, you must not sell the goods we have received in our store. Find another way to sell it. Even the high-end goods in the store are best removed. Why? Because since there is a price difference, you can't let the buyer and seller know about it and buy it in the store. Don’t stop.”
“Besides, doing this will cause trouble. Where do you get all the good cigarettes and alcohol in the store? I’m afraid that other stores will be jealous and report us to the industrial and commercial tax. , let people check us. Only by collecting it here and selling it elsewhere can we make a fortune quietly.”
Well, people actually think more clearly than he does.
This made Zhang Shihui discover that Sister Tan is actually a talented person who can stand alone.
He sincerely believes that if this eldest sister is a man, he should know about tobacco and alcohol.
I'm afraid he has no business advantage compared to others.
So he took the initiative and added commission when he paid his salary at the end of the month.
For no other reason than to cherish talents.
Since he is no longer at the level of a salesperson, of course he must be given a corresponding increase in remuneration.
Otherwise, if someone feels it is not suitable, he will stop doing it, and it will be too late for him to regret it.
Of course, Zhang Shihui was not stupid enough to give too much at once.
He still understands the principle of taking things step by step and leaving room for yourself, so he added thirty.
However, when Sister Tan received such a reward, her first reaction was to be frightened and panicked.
Hey, I called Zhang Shihui at that time.
Zhang Shihui was a little bit dumbfounded by insisting on returning the extra eighty yuan.
"Sister, take it, you don't have to pay more. What's going on is that you helped the store contact nine customers this month, and the transaction amount was almost 600, so I will give you 5%. You calculated the commission. It’s 30 yuan.”
“Huh? You didn’t say there was any commission at the beginning…”
"It was then, and now is now. We are not a public institution, so whatever I say is fine. Just take it, it's what you deserve. You have helped me a lot, and I have to be worthy of you."< br>
"Hey...this...isn't it the right thing to do things with money? I dare you...you are going to resign me?"
"Oh, eldest sister, where did you want to go? Am I not a fool?"
"No, no... I'm scared. To be honest, thanks to you two bosses, I thought I was doing something wrong. Okay..."
"Oh, sister, you are just too worried. Don't worry. First, I can't let you go. Second, with this store here, our lives will get better and better. Okay.”
"Hey, okay, okay..."
In response, Sister Tan actually wiped her face, and tears actually came out.
Zhang Shihui burst out laughing when he saw it.
“Oh, don’t cry. Now that you have come to our store, you must smile more from now on. Just like Teresa Teng’s song. Congratulations! Everything goes well this year. Have you ever heard that business is profitable and life is fun?”
Sister Tan was really amused when she heard Zhang Shihui’s tone-deaf imitation show.
"Oh, why haven't you heard of it? Now the streets are full of songs by Deng...Deng or something like that. They are humming and squirming."
"A young man spends all day listening to her songs. It’s not too heavy even if I listen to the tape recorder.”
“Let’s talk about it after finishing this drink”... I can’t listen to that, I get goosebumps when I listen to it...”
Seeing Sister Tan curling her lips and waving her hands, Zhang Shihui couldn't help laughing.
He found a sense of humor in Sister Tan again.
