Chapter 388: Chapter 375: Do Me a Favor
“The Cheng family’s decision proves the quality of the mosquito repellent herbs.”
Zhuang Yutian thoughtfully responded, “The Cheng family’s decision not only ensures a steady supply of goods at a predictable price, but it also helps to improve their business reputation in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.”
“Although the Cheng family is well-known among locals, their reputation is not as strong in wealthier areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. They desperately need a unique product to secure their position in there.”
“Manager Cheng must be considering this; using our mosquito repellent herbs will surely create a splash in the deep business waters of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.”
“To us, selling to the Cheng family is no different than selling to other merchants. Doing business with numerous parties can be more exhausting, and regardless of you or me, we’re just small businessmen. If someone were to covet our product, there’s no telling what they might do.”
“But if we can team up with the Cheng family, most people won’t dare to act impertinently. In return for supplying them with the mosquito repellent herbs, they will naturally provide us with sufficient amounts, and we may even negotiate a better price.”
“Generally speaking, I think this is a proposition we can agree to.”
After listening to Zhuang Yutian’s explanation, Zhuang Qingning nodded in agreement, “Uncle Yutian, you have a point. The Cheng family only wants to expand their business in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Lingnan. They are not interested in the local county business, and it will not affect our cloth business.”
“In the end, we will still be responsible for the herbal supplies, and Uncle Yutian will handle the cloth wrapping. We should carry out the business thoroughly. Later, when Manager Cheng inquires, we can provide a definitive response.”
“Nevertheless, Uncle Yutian, you should prepare early, secure the cloth goods, and find people who can produce in good time.”
“Hmm.” Zhuang Yutian nodded, his heart was filled with relief and gratitude.
Although Zhuang Qingning is now partnering with the Cheng family, it shouldn’t affect him particularly; after all, the investment agreement they signed originally only covered this year. And even if business with the Cheng family starts next year, it doesn’t break any written agreement.
However, Zhuang Qingning still wanted to collaborate with him, which clearly indicated the intention to include him in the business.
Zhuang Yutian knew exactly what this meant, and after a moment, he sincerely said, “Thankyou, Ning.”
“There’s no need for thankyous between us, Uncle Yutian,” Zhuang Qingning responded, “I didn’t have a place to sell the mosquito repellent herbs initially. I was worried. If it weren’t for you and your wife thinking of selling them, the items would have been difficult to sell.”
“Because of you, I was able to connect with the Cheng family and get into business. I was fortunate then and naturally must continue doing business with you.”
“Furthermore, Uncle Yutian, I do need a favor.”
“Sure, let me know. If I can help, I will not refuse.”
“I’ve made a few friends in town named Hu. There are three brothers, all quite tall and strong, and they’re decent people. However, they currently have no jobs.”
