When She Stops Being Dramatic novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388: Chapter 141: The Green Tea Female Supporting Character in a Period Novel (28)

Xu Chengfang could only nod blankly. ’Yun’er really has everyone figured out completely!’

Chi Yun’er planned to evenly distribute the products from the forty-eight companies through bartering. Her idea was to offer each work unit a variety of goods. Since the quantity of each item would be small, she couldn’t offer them at wholesale prices, which in turn meant the other side couldn’t drive too hard a bargain either.

Bartering specialty items for locally made goods meant the exchange rate was wide open for discussion.

"There will definitely be a lot of bartering in the future. This time, we’ll each be responsible for contacting local factories and quickly exchanging these goods for employee benefits..."

Although Chi Yun’er had never taken a single step out of Bian Family Village until the day she died, television had been her window to the future’s rapid economic development, which naturally included all sorts of effective sales tactics.

Her head was full of strange and wonderful ideas, so Chi Yun’er used what little free time she had to give Xu Chengfang a comprehensive crash course.

Soon, the goods from the various factories began to arrive one after another. The two of them led the warehouse workers on trip after trip to the station to pick up the shipments. Afterward, they had to count the types and quantities of the goods, registering each one as it was moved into the warehouse.

After four or five days of constant work, Chi Yun’er and her companion finally sorted everything out.

All the hospital employees thought the Huoxiang Zhengqi Water was too cheap. After all, a single vial cost less than three fen. Even if every person was given a box of three hundred vials, what could that possibly be traded for?

But Xu Chengfang and the employees temporarily assigned from the warehouse had witnessed it with their own eyes. A few days ago, the warehouse set aside for summer cooling products had only been a third full. Then, they had spent two grueling hours loading over 2,700 boxes of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water onto a truck.

But now, that same warehouse was completely full!

The sheer visual impact of it all left the young workers’ heads spinning.

"Comrade Chi," a good-natured young man couldn’t help but ask, rubbing his hands together. "Are all these things really going to be distributed to each of us as this year’s summer cooling benefits?"

"Canned fruit from the south, tea, and preserved fruits and all that... you got all this just by trading the Huoxiang Zhengqi Water? Are you sure the hospital didn’t just add extra benefits?"

The others couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity as well.

Chi Yun’er just smiled lightly without saying a word.

Instead, it was Xu Chengfang who puffed out her chest proudly and said, "You bet! This was all traded for the Huoxiang Zhengqi Water. Everyone gets a share. But, there’s still one more step before we can hand it all out. Just you wait!"

"You’ve all been working so hard lately. When the time comes, the benefits will definitely be distributed from the warehouse first..."

Everyone was overjoyed and repeatedly promised to work their hardest.

After they locked the warehouse door and the group dispersed, Xu Chengfang gently patted her chest, feeling as if she were walking on air. "Yun’er, the human heart is a curious thing. I never knew that old story about ’three in the morning and four at night’ could be used like this."

She hadn’t really promised them anything significant. She just changed the distribution order for the benefits, and it was enough to get everyone incredibly excited.

’If this were before, I’d probably be grinning foolishly right along with them!’

Chi Yun’er smiled and raised an eyebrow. "See? Learning is important, but applying what you’ve learned is the hard part. We’re also just feeling our way across the river here. Hopefully, we can complete this task smoothly and get the Benefits Department up and running without a hitch."

Xu Chengfang nodded vigorously. "Just tell me what to do. I promise to follow your lead, no questions asked..."

Chi Yun’er pulled two sheets of paper from her pocket. "Train an army for a thousand days to use it for one hour. Here, it’s your time to shine. We’ll each take one of these lists and contact the work units I’ve selected. We need to see what kind of bartering deals we can make."

"Our guiding principle is this: talk up the value of our goods, talk down the price of theirs, and get as much as we possibly can for our hospital’s employees..."

"And while we’re at it," she said, the corners of her lips curling up, "let’s get friendly with the purchasing departments at these places. Later on, when we open a store at the hospital, we can source our inventory from them."
