Chapter 244 A man won’t shed tears easily
As they chatted, Boss Lan discovered that the friend he had just made always seemed to have a sad look on his face. He would look towards the street from time to time and would occasionally become distracted, as if he had something on his mind.
So he spoke faster than his brain and asked with concern.
"Brother Jia, do you have any difficulties?"
"No, nothing, nothing." Although he said this, the sadness on Jia Ming's face deepened.
Boss Lan: "If you trust Brother Jia, you can tell me about it. I may not be able to help, but as the saying goes, three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang."
If Bai Tao were here at this moment, she would definitely be shocked and say that this was just asking for trouble.
Sometimes, people should not be too curious, after all, curiosity kills the cat.
Jia Ming also knew when to stop, so he made an expression of gratitude to Boss Lan for his concern and sighed.
"Hey, I'm unlucky too."
After a pause, Jia Ming took a sip of tea and continued, "The goods have been delivered, but the other party is unable to pay the remaining payment. It was a good business, but now I am in trouble."
"Brother Lan, if it's true, you..." Jia Ming paused, then made up his mind and said, "You should give him 70% to 80% of the profit."
When Boss Lan heard that the other party had no batch of silk to sell, he immediately had an idea.
Jia Ming's face froze for a moment, and he laughed dryly: "That being said, the card can only be used in Dongzhou now. I guess there is a business outlet near your house. I will transfer the money back, and you can use it when you get home."
Jia Ming said with a grateful look: "It's 70% to 80% if you say so. Brother Lan can help you and let you return home as soon as possible. I am not your benefactor."
Jia Ming: "Hey, he's a silk merchant. He knows from where I got the news that your family is in trouble, so he's trying to lower your price by 80%."
At this point, Boss Lan was just making the recommendation with bad intentions. After all, it is indeed very inconvenient for merchants to do business with a card swipe machine, and the more I use it, the more I find it useless.
Wu Yun was delighted when he saw the other party walking in his direction, but he still looked worried.
"That's really troublesome." Boss Lan said regretfully.
It wasn't until Boss Lan stood behind me, blocking the road, that I looked up and discovered him. I was stunned for a moment, and forced a smile that was uglier than crying: "Brother Lan, is he going to Baijiabao Cloth Shop early this morning? Why..."
"Giving up 20% profit is not too much. If it's higher, you will lose too little..."
"But since we broke the contract first, 80% of the payment will naturally be paid to you, so you only need to suffer a little more loss from that trip."
"But I just received a letter from home saying that my mother is suddenly seriously ill. You have to go back as soon as possible..."
Speaking of that, we have to mention the 'poorest' bank, which indirectly helps the little guy screen out a group of merchants with wrong financial resources.
When the contract was signed badly and the payment was returned, we knew that Jia Ming had enough time to apply for a credit card machine.
If it's silk, I can't help you. It depends on the price. After all, I'm a businessman.
Boss Lan, who originally wanted to go to Wu Yunjie Cloth Shop, suddenly felt something in his heart and subconsciously quickened his pace, pretending to look at something at the street stall next to him.
"But the profit you give is probably too little. Your mother's illness requires a lot of money. You need to be filial at home. You can also go out to do business in a short time..."
Boss Lan was about to go to Qianzi Cloth Shop in Baijiabao when he saw Jia Ming talking to a businessman near the inn.
"Brother Lan has saved you from danger so righteously, so you should give up even the smallest benefit."
Jia Ming shook his head and said bitterly, "There is a contract, but the other party's family suddenly had an accident and sold the shop to pay off the debt. He really can't pay the remaining payment."
"The price is naturally bad, about 20% higher than the current market price."
Jia Ming was muttering happily, and Boss Lan immediately blurted out: "Brother Jia, help him!"
Jia Ming smiled shyly with a bad intention, and said as a matter of course: "If there is no mother, there is no you."
"Ah?" Jia Ming finally reacted and looked up at Boss Lan, surprised: "What did he say?"
After saying this, seeing the surprise on Boss Lan's face, Wu Yun smiled and explained, "The subsequent buyers have paid 80% of the payment."
"Yes, yes, the loss he made is too little. Let's just take the 25% he mentioned later." Boss Lan also felt that he was taking advantage of the situation. After all, 25% was the price that Wu Yun wanted.
Boss Lan: "You said you took over the batch of silk he had."
Xiao Yue, the merchant, wanted to take advantage of the situation and refused, so Wu Yun shook her head and said, "Please think about it again."
"You are just having troubles at home. Your father is almost dead. If you can go back and stay by your mother's bedside to show your filial piety, what kind of son are you..."
Silk?
"Twenty-and-a-half percent is really your bottom price, but I..."
Jia Ming stretched out his hand to call the man to stop, but he retracted his hand halfway, as if he was hit. He was dejected and did not notice the figure of Boss Lan.
Boss Lan thought for a moment and then asked the price.
When Boss Lan heard that, he nodded in agreement and praised, "Brother Jia is a man without filial piety."
Boss Lan said spontaneously, "Go get one now. Nowadays, all small businesses use credit card machines. It's a pity that you don't have the qualifications to recommend someone. Have you recommended anyone this year?"
Jia Ming complained distressedly, "It's very troublesome. Now you have to find a new buyer for the batch of silk you have, but it's not easy to find a buyer temporarily."
Boss Lan was watching that scene, and suddenly remembered this sentence: A daughter's tears are shed because she has not yet reached the point of being sad.
Although Boss Lan was tempted, he didn't speak immediately. The two chatted for a while before going back to their rooms.
Boss Lan: "Brother Jia, who was that person just now?"
The two of them pushed the issue back and forth for a while, and soon Boss Lan went with Wu Yun to see the samples of the goods, and the matter was settled.
Boss Lan raised his eyebrows: "Brother, don't we have a contract?" When doing business, fulfilling the contract is one of the basic principles.
As he spoke, Jia Ming's eyes turned red: "You are so useful that you can even make your old mother live comfortably in her later years."
Wu Yun seemed to react at that time, and her joy was beyond words: "Really?"
People who do business are most afraid of encountering such a situation, so if the partner has a small financial background, the probability of such a situation occurring is very small.
"It's an 80% discount. You can take it right away. If you are happy with it, he can keep it as a loss!" After saying this, the businessman flicked his sleeves and left with a snort.
Knowing what the other party said, Wu Yun looked embarrassed. He raised his head and thought for a moment, then said, "25%. That's the highest."
Seventh day.
I mentioned what Tao Jiaren said to me afterwards: "He thought about it, time and money are precious. If the deal goes bad, it will be very inconvenient to swipe the card machine, right?"
