Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 657 Clearing Inventory Is The Real Purpose

Seeing Liu Ya's frown, Nanling thought that the big business was about to run away, so he said to Liu Ya: "Boss, I actually don't want to raise the price. I called you here this time to ask you, would you like to pay in advance?" Some deposits, so that I can stock up more goods. As long as there are papers in my warehouse, I will definitely not increase the price for you. Big deal, I will sleep in the warehouse from now on, looking at those papers every day. "

Seeing that Nanling was in such a hurry, Liu Ya knew that he was thinking for her.It's okay to ask her to pay the deposit, but after Zhu Nanshan's words just now, Liu Ya's heart is also a little bit drummed.She can't cause harm to the innocent people here just for her petty gain.

Liu Ya thought for a while, then asked, "How much paper can you store in your warehouse to ensure safety?"

Nanling did the math and said, "My warehouse is actually not small, but the requirements for storing paper are relatively high. The top cannot be close to the roof, and the left and right cannot be close to the walls. The floor must be padded to prevent moisture, and wooden boards cannot be used. To pad, you can only use gravel to pad it up. In this way, there is actually not enough space to store paper.”

As soon as Nanling said Liu Ya, she understood that this request was just in case.If some paper is really ignited, at least the top, bottom, left, and right sides are not touching the wall, and it will not burn to the next door immediately.Although this is only a solution to the symptoms rather than the root cause, it is also safer than filling the entire warehouse with paper.

Liu Ya asked again: "Then if you want to stock up more goods, don't you have to find a warehouse?"

Nanling sighed and said, "That's the only way to go. However, there are also temporary warehouses, which can only be rented for a season or half a year. Although the price is not cheap, it is still much less expensive than paying a year's rent at a time. gone."

After a pause, he said again: "Actually, if it weren't for Miss Liu, you are a big customer and you don't default on wages, I wouldn't be so embarrassed. Logically speaking, booksellers know about price increases. If I can wait, I will wait until the rainy season is over before buying paper for printing. If you can wait, my boss, I won’t be in a hurry to stock up now.”

Liu Ya said: "Then I have an idea to store goods without renting a warehouse. You can see if it is feasible. However, I just want you to go back and forth to get busy."

Nanling nodded and said, "Boss, tell me."

Liu Ya said: "Actually, it is difficult for you to store goods, and other workshops have the same difficulty. But there must be large warehouses in the place where paper is sold. And the reason they raised the price is simply because the paper is not easy to store this season. It takes a lot of work and special storage. But think about it, if you tell them that you have a fixed monthly fee, will they not give you a price increase because you buy more? You just follow my Negotiate the amount of printing at least [-] copies per month, pay the deposit first, and tell them that they will purchase goods according to this sales volume every month. I think they should be willing.”

"This... can it work?" Nanling was a little embarrassed, perhaps because he had never done this before.

Liu Ya explained to him again: "You can also find a book printing workshop that you can negotiate with and have a good business, and ask them to make a plan for the monthly demand. There are two or three big households going together If you talk about it, the chances of success are high. And think about it, it has become a rule that the price of paper will increase in this season. Many workshops know to stock up in advance. Isn’t this a gimmick thought up by those paper merchants? If I'm not wrong, this season of every year should be the peak season for selling paper. So I think that those merchants who sell paper are not raising prices for the sake of raising prices, but raising prices for clearing inventory. As long as you and They’ve made an agreement, they’ll pick it up on time, and they’re sure they won’t raise the price.”

As soon as Liu Ya finished speaking, Nanling was still thinking about it, Zhu Nanshan slapped his hands, gave a thumbs up and said: "Miss Liu, I really didn't expect you to have such a clear mind, you have figured out all these things. I didn’t understand it at first. The price of paper is even cheaper after the rainy season. Why do you have to increase the price every year? It seems that before the price increase, you will sell a lot of paper. When the price is expensive, On the contrary, not many people bought it. After the price cut, more people bought it. It must be that these merchants took advantage of the price increase to yell for a while, so that these workshops bought all the paper. Their inventory is also low. Less, and it’s easier to keep it.”

Liu Ya nodded and said: "That's the reason. Therefore, the price increase is not the purpose. These merchants are planning to let you buy the paper back and keep it for yourself. They don't have to spend so much effort."

Nanling finally turned the corner, so he asked Zhu Nanshan, "Cousin, then tell me I'll find a few workshops right away, and then we'll talk about not raising the price together, it will work."

"I think it can be done for sure. If you can't, I'll talk with you." Zhu Nanshan is considered a good cousin, not only can help Nanling introduce business, but also has the heart to help him negotiate business.

But after finishing speaking, Zhu Nanshan looked at Liu Ya again, smiled awkwardly and said: "Miss Liu, your method is good, and you have a thorough understanding of this business. But if we also pay the deposit here, the paper will also be prepared. Yes, but your book..."

"I'll just pay you the deposit too." After Liu Ya finished speaking, she took out two bank notes.One of these two banknotes was given by Qiniang, 30 taels; the other was given to her by Miss Ming.

Although the ten taels of silver is much less than that of Dadong's family, Miss Ming is just a girl from Hongxiufang. Although she is a top brand, how can she compare with the value of Dadong Zhao's family.So Miss Ming gave Liu Ya ten taels of silver, which was not too little.

Liu Ya handed the two banknotes to Nanling, and said, "Here are 40 taels of banknotes. I think it's enough as a deposit for this season's book printing."

Nanling took the bank note and said repeatedly: "That's enough, that's enough, my boss, you are really a cheerful person."

Zhu Nanshan didn't expect that such a little girl would be able to get a large amount of money if she just made a casual move.He, the shopkeeper of the bookstore, didn't have so many banknotes in his pocket.

Nanling put away the banknote, and Liu Ya said again: "Since you have accepted my deposit, I have one more request, and I want to discuss it with you."

Nanling nodded and said, "Master, tell me, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to do it. There is no need to discuss or not, Master, you can just say a word."

Liu Ya said: "I just want to know, if I have to print two thousand books a month, or even more, will you take over other people's work?"
