Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 309

Prices speak louder than words.

Expensive items have only one drawback: they're expensive.

Cheap items have only one advantage: they're cheap.

After a brief consideration, Violeta said, "Ms. Janice, how about this?

"You can go ahead and discuss the factories the student council reported, and I'll go back and talk to my dad to see if we can come up with the best price."

Janice immediately smiled. "Great, it's settled then. Violeta, I'll be waiting for your good news."

"Okay."

...

That evening, Violeta returned to the White residence to discuss it with Anton.

Anton had previously donated sports equipment to the school, but donations were one thing, and procurement cooperation was another.

The factory prices Violeta had learned were the ones offered to external partners.

When Anton learned that Violeta wanted to facilitate this cooperation, he readily said, "Vio, it's really not that complicated. I could just donate a batch."

Violeta shook her head. "Dad, that's not necessary. Running a factory is about making money, and we should earn what we deserve."

Donating meant giving away money for free.

Most school board members who frequently donated did so because their children had caused trouble.

Otherwise, they weren't doing charity, and no one wanted to give away too much from their own pocket.

Violeta was very low-profile at school, so Anton rarely had to worry about her.

Anton asked, "So, Vio, what do you want to do?"

Violeta thought for a moment and then said, "Dad, how about this? We could do a half-sale, half-donation deal and promote it as a joint branding campaign at the school. It would be like advertising. What do you think?"

Anton nodded, looking at Violeta with affection. "Sure, sounds good to me. I'll do what you say."

Violeta smiled brightly. "Dad, you're the best!"

With this plan, Violeta managed to cut her family's factory prices in half.

This made White Group's prices lower than those of other factories, and they could also collaborate on brand promotion.

Janice was thrilled when she heard about this, her smile nearly reaching her ears.

But Violeta had one more request.

"Hmm? Why not make it public?" Janice asked.

"We want to create some excitement with the promotion, so we're also making some small items like fans to give away at the school. Revealing it too early would ruin the surprise," Violeta explained.

Janice understood immediately. "I see. Violeta, you're a great help!"

Violeta smiled softly. "There's one more thing I'd like your help with."

"Go ahead."

"The factories you discussed in the meeting earlier—could you ask them to send over some samples? I'd like to compare the quality."

"Sure, no problem at all. That's an easy request."
