1987: Sleepless Tonight

"I can do it." Zhang Zhigang's foolish image also changed, and he looked at Lu Hao seriously.

Lu Hao was very satisfied with Zhang Zhigang's attitude.

He wants such a bloody, daring employee.

Together, the two figured out which products the department store would prepare. The prices were mainly low-end and the customers were mainly ordinary people. This was the most basic positioning of the department store.

Must be close to the people, small profits but quick turnover.

In general, it is low cost, low cost structure, low price, and benefits are passed on to consumers, and those products with large sales volume and fast turnover must be purchased.

Win with the advantage of scale to offset the low-profit concessions and increase the total profit!

It took two or three hours of discussion to finish the matter, and I listed several pages densely, mainly the classification of the goods I planned to purchase.

food and drink.

household appliances.

household products.

Baby products.

Office Supplies.

stationery.

bed linings.

and many more.

Below the larger categories are sub-categories.

For example, food and beverage can also be subdivided into casual snacks, wine, dairy products, beverages, biscuits, candy/chocolate, and so on.

List them out, and then find factories and suppliers based on these small classifications.

"With so many categories, Jiangcheng may not be able to find them all," Zhang Zhigang said.

He looked at the densely-packed pieces of paper, a little scary, originally thought that opening a department store should be easy, just some toothbrushes and toothpaste, as well as electric fans, air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, snacks, plus clothing, etc. But who would have thought that Lu Hao would list so many.

And it's so detailed, several times more than he imagined before!

"We have to allow customers to buy most of the necessities in their lives after they come, so they don't have to go to other stores." Lu Hao said, "So we have to be comprehensive, focusing on items with large sales volume and fast turnover. That's right, but other items that are not commonly used and don't have a lot of sales should also be stocked."

This thing is actually the same as nuclear weapons. It can be used without, but it cannot be without.

A man can live without a gun, but not without a gun!

"If you can't find it in Jiangcheng, go to other cities in the province to look for it. For example, refrigerators, Jiangcheng's are not as good as those in Shashi. Shashi has a wide variety of refrigerators, and the prices are affordable. There are also some air conditioners. There are not many air conditioners in Jiangcheng. Fame, the air conditioners in other provinces are famous, and the quality is also excellent." Lu Hao said, "Make a plan for the travel expenses and report it to me, and I will approve it. You are all the way, and I will find it through other channels. Supply."

Zhang Zhigang took people to look for products. Lu Hao also owns a municipal supply and marketing cooperative. Lin Jiacai can find contacts through the line. Moreover, the municipal supply and marketing cooperative has brothers all over the country. They have internal contact information and transportation channels, which is very convenient.

It's just that in this way, it is inevitable that the supply and marketing cooperative will take part of the price difference.

The factory goes to the supply and marketing cooperative, the supply and marketing cooperative goes to him, and he goes to the customer.

There is an additional link of supply and marketing cooperatives in the middle.

However, one more link does not necessarily mean that the cost is higher than buying goods directly, because the supply and marketing system has been around for many years, and the interior is quite mature. It has its own business office, enterprise management department, and sales department. It saves time and effort, and these are also costs.

It will cost a lot of cost for him to purchase goods by himself, especially from other provinces, while the supply and marketing cooperatives can use their own advantages to save part of the cost through communication and coordination.

The price difference earned by the supply and marketing cooperative just offsets the extra cost that it may have to pay, and may even be lower than the extra cost that it may have to pay.

On the whole, it may be more cost-effective for some sources of goods to be provided by supply and marketing cooperatives.

"That's all right, Brother Hao, I'll go get busy." Zhang Zhigang said.

Lu Hao had a few sheets of paper in front of him, and he had one in front of him too. A good memory is not as good as a bad pen, so he picked it up and put it away, and went out.

He dare not neglect this matter.

Lu Hao raised his hand to check the time, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, the daughter-in-law, Nini, and Chen Linjiao didn't come over?

At home, I often eat just after 12 o'clock, which is very regular.

Su Min said that eating on time is good for the stomach, and men are the pillars, so we must pay attention to our bodies and keep our stomachs healthy.

Go back early?

But it shouldn't, if you really want to go back early, you will definitely tell yourself.

Could something have happened?

Lu Hao suddenly became nervous and ran out in a hurry.

Wang Ting and Xia Qian in the store looked at him in surprise. They had never seen the boss so flustered.

After leaving the Weiminsheng Fresh Supermarket, I ran for a while and arrived at the corner. I looked over and saw that the stall was still there. Su Min, Nini, and Chen Linjiao were also there.

Nothing happened.

He let out a heavy breath, because he was thinking too much, it's okay, it's okay.

"Father." Nini saw him.

Lu Hao smiled and walked over.

"Why is your face so pale?" Su Min asked when he saw that his complexion was not very good.

"It's nothing, just now I thought something happened to you, so I ran over, a little flustered." Lu Hao said.

"I went to your office just now and took a look outside the window. I saw that you and Zhang Zhigang were talking, so I didn't go in to disturb you." Su Min said.

She went to the Weiminsheng Supermarket, but at that moment Lu Hao and Zhang Zhigang were having a lively conversation, so they didn't notice the situation outside, and she didn't go in to bother them either.

"I'm talking about business with him, and I've invested a lot. You haven't eaten yet, right? I'll take you to the next restaurant." Lu Hao said.

"Father, we've been out of the restaurant a long time ago. We just ate noodles next to it. It's delicious, Yangchun noodles." Nini said as if offering a treasure, "I drank all the soup."

Jiangcheng's specialty noodles are hot and dry noodles, while Yangchun noodles are from other places. Nini seldom eats them and eats them with great enthusiasm.

"Yes, we just took turns to eat Yangchun noodles at a small restaurant next door, a bowl costs [-] cents." Su Min nodded.

She was very happy, "The rice wine is selling well, and more than half of it has been sold by now, and it should be almost sold out in one or two hours. You sit here, and I will ask the boss to make another order of noodles."

"I'll just go to the store to eat, it doesn't need to be so troublesome." Lu Hao said.

It's not far, it's more convenient to walk over to eat in the store.

"Sit down, I'll go buy it." Su Min didn't do it this time, so she pulled Lu Hao to sit, and went to the small restaurant by herself.

Just now, her man's panic expression all fell into her eyes.

panic.

panic.

Like a headless chicken.

Her heart was moved violently, this man really cared about her, he cared about her so much, fearing that something would happen to her, the panic in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

Her heart is warm, but it hurts.

Did he think something happened to him?That's why he was so panicked, how worried should he be when he ran out?

Thinking of this, Su Min's eyes turned red, and she wiped the corners of her eyes quietly, feeling very guilty. It was because she wanted to add pesticides to the pork rib soup before, looking for life and death, which made the man so scared.

She wanted to hug him, and said softly: I will not seek death or life, never again.

After waiting for a while, Su Min came over, carrying a large bowl of Yangchun noodles, piled high with lean meat, and two fried eggs.
