Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

"Damn it! I'm such a pig-brained person!!!"

To understand the key, Chen Dali slapped his forehead repeatedly.

Northern Machinery Company has the imperial sword given by above.

The goods they produce are unplanned goods.

Since it is an unplanned product, there is no so-called sales guide price.

After buying all the tricycles from the machinery company, the department store can simply add a hundred or two hundred yuan to the original price when selling them.

Wonderful, it’s really wonderful!

Chen Dali, who was previously frowning, said, "Xiao Li, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and invite Director Lin, no, President Lin, in."

"okay."

The salesman Xiao Li turned and rushed out.

Submit your suggestions to the manager for adoption.

The matter of temporary workers becoming regular employees, hehehe,

The sales scene outside is still lively.

The only drawback is that there are many people looking at it, but no one buys it.

Assistant Bai Ru handed the cup to Lin Kaifeng and said, "Boss Lin, so many people went up to test drive the car, but no one bought it. Are we going to go home with nothing today?"

Lin Kaifeng took the cup of water and drank it all, glancing towards the door of the department store out of the corner of his eye.

Lin Kaifeng has a lot of tricks for setting up a stall in front of the department store.

"coming."

Seeing a young man rushing out, Lin Kaifeng handed the cup back to Bai Ru.

He picked up the tin horn on the ground and continued to shout out the various functions of the three-wheeled farm vehicle.

"Boss Lin, please take a break first."

Xiao Li ran to Lin Kaifeng and said with a smile: "Our manager asked you to go to the office to have a rest and talk to you about purchasing agricultural tricycles."

Lin Kaifeng had long expected that the department store would definitely not sit still.

The reason why a booth was set up in front of the department store to sell agricultural tricycles.

Not only because department stores are the places with the highest traffic in the city.

The main purpose is to put pressure on department stores.

Let them see how popular agricultural tricycles are.

It would be difficult for Northern Machinery Company alone to sell agricultural tricycles to all parts of the province in a short period of time.

The common people of this era have always had an inherent way of thinking.

When shopping, you must go to department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives.

The quality of goods sold by factories may not be guaranteed.

Secondly, department stores have unique sales channels.

Production brigades, communes, and county-level departments.

If you need any supplies related to life or other aspects, you can either go to the Supply Bureau or go to a department store.

Only this place can meet their various production and living needs.

"Comrade Lin Kaifeng, you've worked hard. Please sit down and have some tea."

In the manager's office, there is a cup of freshly brewed hot tea.

Chen Dali got a palm-leaf fan from somewhere and took the initiative to fan Lin Kaifeng to keep cool.

Lin Kaifeng said politely: "Look at you, why are you so polite?"

"This is not the first time we have dealt with each other. Last time, the radios produced by your company were put on the shelves and immediately attracted a crazy rush from the people."

"We have such a good relationship. I can't bear to see your company working hard to promote its products outside. How about this, sell all the agricultural tricycles you brought to our department store."

Chen Dali will formulate a series of tricycle purchasing plans on behalf of the department store.

"Manager Chen really helped me a lot."

Lin Kaifeng assured: "Don't worry, our company will supply as much as the department store wants, and there will definitely be no supply shortage."

“In terms of price…”

"700 yuan, Comrade Lin Kaifeng, what do you think of this price?"

Chen Dali asked.

Lin Kaifeng's smile disappeared, and he frowned and said, "850 yuan is too low. To be honest, the cost price of the tricycle is 30 yuan. Since this is the first time it has been unveiled, and people are not familiar with this type of vehicle, I only added yuan to the cost price."

"After deducting all costs, at 880 yuan per car, our company is no longer making any money. If we sell it to department stores at 700 yuan per car, we will be losing money to gain publicity."

"As far as I know, the black-and-white TVs sold in department stores cost 380 yuan, not counting the required industrial invoices."

"With less money than three TV sets, I can buy a farm tricycle that can carry both people and goods. Tell me, is it worthwhile?"

Lin Kaifeng then turned the topic to the relevant spirit of the relevant departments.

Since last year, higher authorities have repeatedly called on the vast number of poor and lower-middle peasants to exert their enthusiasm and engage in sideline production.

Production brigades and communes are encouraged to set up collective enterprises.

Various agricultural and sideline products produced in the countryside are sent to butcher shops, vegetable shops, and grocery stores in the city.

Without transportation, fresh vegetables would droop when sent to the city even if they didn’t all rot.

Lin Kaifeng calmly pointed out that even if the department store bought the car for one thousand yuan, it would still make a profit.

Rural sideline production is in full swing.

The biggest obstacle in delivering agricultural and sideline products from the countryside to the relevant departments is the journey.

Even if some communes have freight trucks, the number will not be too large.

The emergence of tricycles has greatly solved the problem of untimely supply of materials.

"Okay, 880 is 880."

Chen Dali had never experienced the torture of the market economy and had no experience in how to bargain.

Seeing that what Lin Kaifeng said seemed to be true, he simply bought it according to the price proposed by Lin Kaifeng.

There were a total of fifteen agricultural tricycles, all left in the department store.

Tomorrow, Chen Dali will bring the official seal and accountant to the county town to sign the contract with Lin Kaifeng.

A day's hard work paid off with a perfect harvest.

On the way back, everyone was smiling.

In less than ten hours, all fifteen agricultural tricycles brought by the crowd were sold out.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, everyone walked back to the machinery company.

Lu Changshun, Niu Yonggui and others, who had been waiting for a long time, ordered the canteen to light a fire and start cooking, as if they were welcoming a triumphant hero.

You can cook anything with rice, flour and pork belly.

The next day.

Chen Dali brought his accountant and drove the tricycle he had learned to drive overnight to the machinery company to sign the contract.

After the contract was signed, Niu Yonggui accompanied Chen Dali and the department store accountant to visit the company's production workshop.

Lu Changshun sat in the finance office, collecting the bills one by one in his hand.

"Uncle San, you should raise your level of vision appropriately."

Lin Kaifeng joked, "We went to the Canton Fair and made 10 million US dollars at one time. Seeing more than 10,000 yuan, why do I feel that you are happier than last time?"

Lu Changshun said happily: "The money we made before was earned through export. The more than 10,000 yuan in my hand is the first money our factory has earned in China."

“It’s completely different in nature.”

Lin Kaifeng had a thoughtful expression.

What Lu Changshun said is correct.

The more than 10,000 yuan in front of him was the first pot of gold that the machinery company earned in the country after it broke away from the planned economy.

It is indeed commemorative.

All the commodities studied previously were sold using the planned economy method.
