Back to 80, start from gold digging

Manager Zhao's analysis was indeed good. Zhao Wenduo did not intend to hide it from him. Not only did he not hide it, he was also prepared to leave the incoming materials to him.

At the appointment at the snack bar the next day, Zhao Wenduo handed the two pages of information prepared in advance to Manager Zhao, and frankly said that he would be in control of both raw materials from now on, including more and less, quality level selection, everything. Can call the shots.

Of course, this kind of responsibility is also limited to a certain amount. If it exceeds too much, you still need to ask for instructions.

Even so, for Manager Zhao, it is already a great degree of trust. Because of this trust, he had to complete this errand well.

But things in this world are not always satisfactory. Although Manager Zhao is determined to do a good job and has two or three pages of plans, when it comes to the actual work, there will always be surprises like this.

There was no problem with the jade. I went to X town and brought Hou Song with me. With this person as my guide, the purchase of the stone was quite smooth. The goods were of high quality and low price, which was quite cost-effective.

Manager Zhao thought that gold and jade were both old and new. If it was difficult, the new one would be higher. The old one was a well-traveled route. According to the instructions given by the little boss, find the right contact person and the price would be the same. It is agreed that even if there is any fluctuation, it will not be too big. To put it bluntly, he was just running an errand, which he could complete without much effort.

But the result was the opposite for Qiaqia. After successfully completing the jade purchase task, something unexpected happened to this seemingly simple task. The gold raw materials were obtained, but the quantity was different.

According to the average consumption of the three stores, Zhao Wenduo's purchase amount is almost fixed each time, which can last about three months. This number is also derived from experience. It is not too long and not too short. Comparatively the appropriate cycle.

It has been like this for the past two years, and nothing has changed.

The person in charge of Quliu Village has interacted with Zhao Wenduo several times and became acquaintances. Once the three months are up, he will prepare the required quantity. When Zhao Wenduo comes, he can directly pay for the goods and leave. .

Both parties have formed a tacit understanding, and both the buyer and seller are quite satisfied.

If nothing else, this mutually beneficial model will continue.

But the problem is, this unexpected thing happened when nothing unexpected happened.

When Manager Zhao revealed his identity and came to pick up the goods on behalf of his own small boss, the person in charge of the Meandering Village opposite had a look of helplessness on his face and sighed depressedly, saying: "I was still thinking about what to do. How can you tell your little boss? It’s not that difficult now.”

Manager Zhao: "..." Why, you're serving food to someone because you think he's easy to bully?

Although I still don’t know what it is, I know it’s not a good thing after hearing this sentence, and I instinctively feel repulsed.

No matter how difficult it is, once you say it out loud, it won't seem so difficult anymore. The man called the villagers to bring the prepared small bags, put them on the scale next to them and weighed the grams. He explained: "The output of the mine has been greatly reduced, and these are still numbers that can only be collected with determination. The amount is still a bit short, but there’s nothing we can do about it.”

"Uncle, this is half the size. Isn't it a bit much?" Assistant Ding looked at the weighed amount and shouted.

"Didn't I tell you that the output is low and the supply cannot be supplied? You are still doing well. You can still pay half of it. There are some customers who haven't even set aside half. They don't know how to explain to others. .”

Does this mean we are still satisfied?

"Uncle, you see, it's our first time here, so we can't just mess up this errand, right? You see, if we don't do this, even if we divide half the bags, we can still make up a round number, and we can have an explanation when we go back. , okay?” Manager Zhao also calculated in his mind that adding another half would be enough for two months. With these dozens of days as a buffer, he could also come up with some solutions. Seeing that we have to change the source of goods, we will have more time in half a month and twenty days.

"Seeing as you are regular customers, I'll give you another half bag."

"Thank you, uncle."

Assistant Ding glanced at Manager Zhao, and both of them saw a wry smile on each other's faces. It was really not easy to beg grandpa and grandma to buy this thing.

But no matter what, striving for more than a quarter is better than nothing.

The two took the bag and a half of raw materials back to the county seat by car and informed Zhao Wenduo of the matter immediately.

Zhao Wenduo just said: "I know." He didn't say another word.

"What do you mean, little boss? Are you not satisfied?" Assistant Ding couldn't figure out what the boss Zhao Wenduo was thinking.

Manager Zhao turned over the goods list in his hand and said: "Of course I'm not satisfied. The supply of goods will be cut off at any time. Who wouldn't worry about it? It's just that our little boss is different from others. Don't look at it. She didn’t say anything unnecessary, but she had a plan in mind. Maybe she had already thought of the next step, but she just didn’t reveal it to us.”

"Can this be the case?" Assistant Ding was a little skeptical: "Did she know that the mine would be reduced a long time ago?" If that were the case, then she would no longer be a god. She could predict the future with her fingers and calculations.

"That tone must be a guess." Based on the experience of getting along with each other in the past two years, he felt that this was possible.

"When you say that, I remember one thing. The hometown of our little boss is Qiushui Town. I heard that one of the earliest villages had a gold sand mine, but it didn't take two years to hit the bottom. Tell me, she Could it be that because of this, I was mentally prepared in advance, so I wasn’t surprised?”

"It's possible. After all, we're all in the same town. It's normal to know something about the mine."

"But a few years ago, how old was the little boss?" Children as young as twelve or thirteen already know how to collect information, and it may not necessarily be useful information.

"You're only thirteen or fourteen years old, how big can you be? But don't forget, our 'Kitakin' store is not the first one here, it's the one in Qiushui Town. It opened a few years ago, how can we build a store like this?" The little girl, can she be an ordinary child? It is normal to think of these things in advance."

Assistant Ding said: "She is really a villain. When I was as old as her, I didn't understand anything. Look at how many stores they have opened. I heard that the 'Sweet and Fragrant' milk is mixed with tea. It was her idea to drink together. Look at that person’s little head, and then look at our own, we really have to compare and throw it away.”

"Otherwise, if someone can open a big store and become the boss, we will have to work for them. The gap is a big gap."

The two of them sighed together. They admired their little boss both openly and privately. It was an honor to be able to serve as a manager for such an outstanding person.

Zhao Wenduo had expected that the alluvial gold supply in Quliu Village would be reduced. No matter how abundant a mine is, it will always be exhausted. Sooner or later it will be different. She had noticed it when she went to restock the goods half a year ago, but there was some reserve in the store, so she was not in a hurry.
