Chapter 301 I Didn't Get It Wrong
"Boss Meng, what coffee do you want?"

"casual."

"..."

After the two exchanged a few polite words like this, the coffee was served, and there were several exquisite desserts, which are also the characteristics of this hotel. These desserts were made by the hotel's pastry master.

At the beginning, the two just chatted casually. After chatting like this for a while, Xu Zhaokang finally mentioned the stores of Shennongtang Pharmacy Chain Co., Ltd.

"Mr. Meng, I have been to your store in Jinhai City. The business is very good, and the daily turnover is estimated to be much higher than that of your peers. You are really young and promising, which makes people very envious."

Meng Xiang said modestly: "Mr. Xu, you also run a chain of pharmacies. As far as I know, the business of your stores is also good."

"Where, where, my stores are too far behind yours, they can't stand on the stage at all, they can't be compared."

Meng Xiang said: "The business of each of our stores is very good. In addition to the good location and environment of the store, the most important thing is that the three medicines sold are very good, and they are well-known among the patients. Tens of thousands of patients have been cured."

When mentioning "Duhuo Tongzhi Oral Liquid", "Yixin Buqi Pill" and Liver Nourishing Tea, Xu Zhaokang's eyes showed obvious envy.

"These three medicines are really good, and that's the main reason why I took the liberty to invite Mr. Meng to drink coffee." Xu Zhaokang finally revealed his purpose.

Meng Xiang finally vaguely understood that the other party was interested in these three medicines, but he didn't know what thoughts and plans he had other than his great interest.

Having said that, Xu Zhaokang stopped beating around the bush, and finally stated his purpose, "Mr. Meng, to be honest, I like your three medicines very much, and I want to cooperate with you so that those three medicines will also be released." Sell ​​it in our shop."

Meng Xiang wanted to say something, but Xu Zhaokang waved his hand and continued: "I know that you have never had such a cooperation model. You have always opened a direct-sale store for sales. In fact, it is a win-win thing to sell in our store. We There are more than 100 stores in Jinhai and its surrounding counties and cities, with a very complete sales network..."

Xu Zhaokang introduced his pharmacy chain company, and tried his best to persuade Meng Xiang.

After what he said, to be honest, Meng Xiang was a little tempted.Currently encountering a bottleneck in development, it feels more and more difficult to open a store, and the speed has gradually slowed down.

It’s okay at the beginning. Even if we open more than a dozen stores, the manpower and material resources spent on [-] to [-] stores are not particularly huge. As the number of stores increases, more and more management personnel are needed, such as the store manager of each store. , regional supervisors, various grassroots managers and so on.

Meng Xiang even thought that when Shennongtang Pharmacy Chain Co., Ltd. had hundreds or even thousands of stores, there might be a huge management team, and the management cost would also be huge.

Although he was a little tempted by Xu Zhaokang's lobbying, Meng Xiang also had a lot of concerns and concerns, the biggest concern being profit.

After he entered the drug retail industry, he knew that there was a huge difference between the retail price of drugs and the ex-factory price.The retail price of a box of medicines with an ex-factory price of only a dozen yuan may be hundreds, or even hundreds.

"Duhuo Tongzhi Oral Liquid" and "Yixin Buqi Pills" are sold in Xu Zhaokang's store, so how much is the purchase price for him?
For example, a box of "Duhuo Tongzhi Oral Liquid" with a retail price of 3000 yuan, according to industry rules, the price for Xu Zhaokang may be only 2000 to [-] yuan. Such a low price, Zhang Chi will definitely not agree.

Although he was a little tempted, Meng Xiang's rationality told him to calm down at this moment, so he expressed his concerns.

"Mr. Xu, if these three medicines are sold in your store, what price will I give you? I think it will be difficult for us to negotiate at least on the price."

How could he know that Xu Zhaokang had already done enough homework. Not only did he know the retail prices of these three medicines, but he also knew the curative effects of these three medicines, as well as their popularity and reputation among patients, and he had already thought about how to treat them. Like to discuss cooperation matters with Meng Xiang.

"Ha ha……"

He smiled heartily, "Mr. Meng, the price is not a problem at all. We can get the goods at 8% of the retail price, or even 5%."

what!
9% of the retail price.

Meng Xiang was stunned, thinking he heard it wrong, and specially reminded: "Mr. Xu, if the retail price of our 'Duhuo Tongzhi Oral Liquid' is 3000 yuan a box, 9% of the retail price, that is 2700 yuan, you only earn 300 yuan for each box of 'Duhuo Tongzhi Oral Liquid' sold?"

Earning 300 yuan for each box of medicine seems to be a lot, but it is not.

It includes management expenses, transportation and logistics expenses, employee work, and various taxes and fees. Once these seventy-eight things are deducted, it would be good to have half of the 300 yuan left.

Xu Zhaokang said affirmatively: "Yes, it is 9% of the retail price, Mr. Meng, you heard me right."

You heard me right.

Meng Xiang's heart gradually became eager. If this is the case, then this kind of cooperation is okay, and we can have an in-depth discussion.

So, the two parties sat together, drinking coffee and discussing. The atmosphere was very friendly, and they chatted for almost two hours.

After negotiating a lot of things, Meng Xiang stood up and said, "Mr. Xu, let's talk about this for now. I will report to our boss after I go back. Wait for my news for now."

"Yes, I'll wait for your news." Xu Zhaokang got up and shook hands with Meng Xiang, and reminded: "Mr. Meng, I hope you can be a little faster."

"sure."

After leaving, Meng Xiang returned to his room and called his assistant, mainly for two things.First, book an air ticket to return to Nanjiang City tomorrow morning.Second, all the backbones stationed in Jinhai City will meet at night.Meng Xiang had some things to arrange and explain before returning to Nanjiang City.

.......
Nanjiang City.

In the morning, Zhang Chi left the company early and arrived at the place he had agreed with Wang Dingguo.It is a famous park in Nanjiang City, with mountains and water.

There is a private club by the lake, imitating the ancient garden construction, with rockery, gazebo, and attic.Wang Dingguo has been waiting for a long time at a gazebo near the lake.

"Brother Wang, you really know how to choose a place."

Wang Dingguo said proudly: "Why, the place is not bad, look, feel the cool breeze, the scenery of lakes and mountains, and a pot of good tea, this feeling, tsk tsk..."

Zhang Chi sat down with a smile, this place is really good, especially the weather in early summer is very suitable to come here.

The two chatted while drinking tea.

After drinking a cup of tea, Wang Dingguo said: "Brother, the matter you told me is already being processed. I just want to ask, when will our Bufei Pills be produced."

Zhang Chi said: "Once the factory building is completed, as soon as your approval document arrives, you can start production and launch the market immediately."

After knowing that Zhang Chi made the Bufei Pill, Wang Dingguo was almost so happy that he didn't fall asleep all night.Zhang Chi asked him to handle the approval of the production license of Bufei Pills, which he was already handling.

He is confident that it will be completed in less than two months, but the subsequent patent application, the application for the approval of Sinopharm, is a little more difficult.But these things can be done later, let the Bufei pills be mass-produced first.

After hearing Zhang Chi's answer, Wang Dingguo said, "In other words, it's about two or three months."

"Yes, it's about two or three months." Zhang Chi said confidently, "Maybe it won't take three months, maybe two months or so."

"That's great."

Wang Dingguo became happy and relieved, and said happily: "The Bufei Pill is listed, and the development of our company is estimated to reach a new level. Those who withdrew their shares at the beginning probably felt like hitting a wall."

Zhang Chi said: "Don't mention them, come, let's drink tea."

After drinking tea for a while, Zhang Chi received a call from Meng Xiang, "Brother Chi, I have already got off the plane and returned to Nanjiang City."

Zhang Chi was a little surprised and said: "You came back so soon, you didn't stay in Jinhai City for two days this time."

Meng Xiang said: "Brother Chi, I have something very important to report to you, so I hurried back. Are you in the company now, I want to report these things to you face to face."

Zhang Chi said: "I'm outside for the time being, how about it, you come to xx park directly, I'll drink tea with Brother Wang here."

"Okay, I'll come directly." Meng Xiang replied simply.

After answering the phone call, Zhang Chi couldn't help but think, Meng Xiang has something to report to me face to face, and rushed over from Jinhai City in such a hurry.

....
That's all for today's update, thank you all.
