Chapter 121 - 121 Difficulty; Hello, Mr. Lin!

121 Difficulty; Hello, Mr. Lin!

Although Manager Xiong’s attitude was not very good, in order to survive, Huang Yipeng did not dare to show any anger.

He picked up the contract and read it carefully.

However, Huang Yipeng asked after a while, “Manager Xiong, weren’t we at level two last year? Why is this contract for a level three retail store? Did you take the wrong contract out?”

Manager Xiong took a sip of tea and then cleared his throat.

“I didn’t take the wrong one out!

“Mr. Huang, you’ve been running the shop for a few years. Why don’t you understand the rules?

“The level of the retail store is based on the sales volume. Your sales volume last year was too low, so you can only get the contract for a level three retail store this year.”

His tone was relaxed, but Huang Yipeng was anxious.

“Manager Xiong, the prices of many items for level three distributors are 5% higher than those on level two. We can’t afford them at all!

“It might seem like a mere 5%, but how much is the total profit of one product?”

As Huang Yipeng had said, they could not afford it.

Li Min could not help but shout, “Manager Xiong, you can’t deliberately make things difficult for us just because we had a conflict in the past!”

“You can’t say that!” Manager Xiong’s face sank as he shouted.

“You should know the sales figures of your store! Take a look at the rules of the distributors in Xiao Wu Wholesale City!

“I’m doing everything according to the rules!”

As he spoke, he threw a stack of documents on the table.

Huang Yipeng understood that the situation was more important than the person.

“Manager Xiong, I’m sorry. My wife didn’t mean it that way,” he quickly apologized.

“However, with this 5% increase in price, our shop won’t be able to make any profit at all…

“Moreover, our store’s sales volume is only a little bit away from the sales volume of a level two sales store… Can you please be more tolerant?”

Manager Xiong did not change his mind even after Huang Yipeng’s apology.

“I’ve already said that this is the rule of Xiao Wu Wholesale City!

“You were a little bit away from the sales volume, which means you didn’t reach it! Therefore, we can only sign a level three dealer contract this year!

“If you want to improve your level, it’s very simple! If you can increase your sales this year, you’ll naturally be able to sign a higher grade contract next year.”

That was what he said, but in reality?

The prices were low last year, but that did not help to increase sales.

If the prices were high this year, how could their sales increase?

Huang Yipeng understood this very well. His face was full of bitterness as he said, “Manager Xiong, can you think of another way?”

“What I just said is the only way!” Manager Xiong said. “If you don’t believe me, you can go to the other business managers in our Xiao Wu Wholesale City.”

After that, Manager Xiong ignored Huang Yipeng and the others. He focused on the computer screen, looking very busy.

Seeing this, Huang Yipeng was filled with helplessness. He could only continue to look through the contract.

Should he go to the other managers of Xiao Wu Wholesale City?

Would it really work?

As Manager Xiong said, this was the rule of Xiao Wu Wholesale City.

As a member of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, Manager Xiong definitely had his own network. Perhaps with just one word, he could make all the other managers ‘follow the rules.’

Lin Fan frowned and was about to say something.

Ring, ring!

At this moment, his phone rang.

Lin Fan looked at the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number.

“Hello, are you Mr. Lin?” Just as Lin Fan pressed the answer button, a voice filled with a fawning tone rang out.

Lin Fan said, “It’s me. Who are you? ”

“Hello, Mr. Lin. I’m Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City.” The voice on the other end of the phone became more respectful.

When Lin Fan heard this, his brows furrowed slightly as he gave a strange look.

He had just arrived at Xiao Wu Wholesale City, and their chairman had already called?

In fact, Zhang Zhou had long wanted to make this call.

After all, Lin Fan was the biggest shareholder in his company.

In fact, if Lin Fan was willing, he could even easily remove him from his position as the chairman.

Therefore, Zhang Zhou wanted to wait for good news from the company before calling Lin Fan. He wanted to leave a good impression on Lin Fan.

After a while, Lin Fan said, “Oh, it’s you. What’s the matter?”

“Mr. Lin, here’s the thing. We’ve calculated the financial statement for the second quarter of Xiao Wu Wholesale City. The net profit in the second quarter increased by 120%! A total of 120 million in dividends was generated, and your 51% of the shares is 61 million. May I know which account it’ll be transferred to?” Zhang Zhou said.

Lin Fan’s lips curled up.

Although he did not care much about money now, he was still a little happy to be able to earn an additional 61 million.

Lin Fan said, “I’m at Xiao Wu Wholesale City, Room 307. Come over first.”

Zhang Zhou was stunned for a moment, then he quickly said, “Yes, I’ll come over now!”

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhou became busy and anxious.

“Secretary, quickly inform all the executives to gather!”

…

At this moment, in Room 307.

Huang Yipeng finally finished reading the contract, and his frown deepened.

“Manager Xiong, if we follow the price on the contract, I’m afraid our shop won’t be able to continue.”

“What do you mean by that, Mr. Huang?” asked Manager Xiong. “Our Xiao Wu wholesale market has signed a lot of level three sales contracts. If you say that, how are the others continuing to run their stores?

“In fact, we’re already offering the cost price to the level three distributors, and we’re offering subsidies to the level two distributors.

“If you want to get the subsidies, of course, you have to have a good performance!”

After a pause, Manager Xiong continued, “If you really think the price is too high and you can’t continue to run the store, we won’t force you. After all, Xiao Wu Wholesale City has always allowed tenants to freely come and go.”

After that, Manager Xiong picked up the cup again and drank the tea leisurely.

Freely come and go?

This sentence was simple, but was it really so?

When Huang Yipeng first opened this shop, he spent a total of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan on the renovation, security deposit, stock, and so on.

If he really gave up now, all the previous investments would be for naught.

Huang Yipeng’s expression was extremely ugly. He opened his mouth, trying to say something.

At this moment, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the corridor.

Then, a large group of men and women in formal suits walked in quickly.

When Manager Xiong, who was drinking tea, saw them, he almost got scalded. He quickly stood up and said, “Chairman Zhang, General Manager Chen, Director Wang, Director Li, Director Hu… Why are you guys here?”

However, it was as if these people did not hear Manager Xiong’s words.

The chairman, Zhang Zhou, went straight to Lin Fan and said respectfully, “Hello, Mr. Lin.”

Following that, the large group of people behind him also followed suit and said respectfully, “Hello, Mr. Lin!”

Silence!

Then, the entire Room 307 fell into a brief silence!
