Chapter 46 Signing a Toothbrush Business Agreement with Carpenter Chen
Su Yu showed no impatience at all in response to Carpenter Chen's question. Instead, she explained carefully, "I'm also planning to open a workshop specializing in toothpaste for toothbrushes. This formula is my own secret recipe."
"It cannot be replicated by outsiders, and the effect is very significant. It can protect teeth from insect damage, relieve pain, and prevent tooth loss. It is very effective and can make yellowed teeth white as new."
When Carpenter Chen heard this explanation, the stone in his heart fell to the ground instantly. He believed that Master Su would not lie to an old man like him. Master Su was a man of high moral character who did not like to take advantage of others. He was willing to give it a try.
So he made up his mind and said to Su Yu: "I am willing to sign the contract."
"Okay, then follow me to the study to draw up the contract, please."
After Su Yu finished speaking, he politely made a gesture of invitation, and then took the father and son to the study in the east wing. Xie An followed behind everyone, while Xie Nanxing cleverly ran to the kitchen to make tea.
When they arrived at the study, Su Yu said politely, "Uncle Chen, Brother Chen, please sit down and wait for a moment. I will draft a contract right away."
Su Yu walked to the desk and thought about how to write the contract. While his master was thinking, Xie An began to carefully add water and grind the ink with an ink stick on the exquisitely carved ink tray.
After a few breaths, Xie Nanxing came in with a tray with two cups of tea, and said, "Uncle Chen, Brother Chen, please have some tea first."
The Chen family father and son took it politely and thanked the little girl repeatedly in a very simple manner.
Before long, the ink was ground into a fine and even consistency, emitting a faint fragrance. Without the slightest hesitation, Su Yu gently picked up the tip of the brush, dipped it in a suitable amount of ink, and began writing the cooperation agreement without hesitation.
In a flash, a beautiful piece of calligraphy in the Slender Gold style appeared before my eyes. Each character was like a dancing fairy, light and agile; or like a tall and handsome bamboo, tough and strong.
The font is slender yet full, showing elegance in its gracefulness, and the strokes are slender and as smooth as silk, as if revealing the innate nobility and extraordinaryness of a young man from a noble family.
Xie An, who had been silently grinding ink nearby, couldn't help but widen his eyes and stare at the unique handwriting, his heart filled with amazement.
He wondered to himself: How many unexpected talents does my son have hidden? At this moment, his eyes were filled with deep admiration for Su Yu.
For Su Yu, who had drafted numerous contracts in modern society, writing such a simple contract was a piece of cake. He listed all the details that needed attention and carefully copied them out, making sure that no important information was missed.
After completing the contract, Su Yu solemnly signed his name and the date he had agreed upon at the end of each contract. He then blew gently on the paper to dry the ink. Finally, he took out the vermilion ink and carefully placed his thumbprint on it.
As for the purposeful, unsightly handwriting he'd created last time, it was simply to dispel the suspicions of Xiaowu, the servant beside him. After all, he'd already realized that Xiaowu was a spy sent by someone else to spy on him. He didn't even take such a small figure seriously, so there was no need to continue his disguise.
Su Yu felt a little uneasy, as if something important was missing. Thinking carefully, he realized it was a private seal. He was used to stamping contracts in the modern era, and suddenly he felt uncomfortable without it.
However, Su Yu thought to himself that the next time he went to the Golden Building to discuss business, he would definitely select an exquisite piece of raw stone, and then personally design and create a unique private seal.
At this moment, Su Yu walked over to the tea table and handed one of the contracts to Carpenter Chen. He said softly, "Uncle Chen, please take a look at this contract first. If you think there are any clauses or details that need to be added, please feel free to ask."
Then he added: "As for the subsequent supply of toothpaste, I guarantee that I will supply it to you at the most affordable exclusive contract price! And I guarantee that I will only supply Chen Bo's family and Huangjinlou. In the future, those who buy toothpaste can only get it from you."
Although Carpenter Chen was not very literate, he could at least recognize a few simple words. He glanced over the contents of the contract and roughly understood the contents.
Moreover, in his eyes, this young man not only had noble character, but was also upright and kind, and it was absolutely impossible for him to deceive him.
So, Carpenter Chen picked up the pen without hesitation, solemnly signed his name - Chen Wang - on the contract, and pressed his thumbprint.
The contract was made in two copies, one for each person, and both of them carefully kept one copy.
Su Yu asked Carpenter Chen again so that he could make the corresponding amount of toothpaste: "Uncle Chen, how many toothbrushes can you produce in a month?"
Carpenter Chen said honestly, "I plan to hire 30 people first. Each person can make about 30 toothbrushes a day, which means I can produce 27,000 toothbrushes a month. The cost of materials, hiring people, and the venue is all I have. I don't have the money to hire more."
Su Yu heard this, shook his head and suggested: "Taohua County alone has a population of 40,000, not to mention that by then the whole country will be buying goods from Uncle Chen.
This is still too little. I can invest an additional 5,000 taels. You can hire 100 people first, because once this thing comes out, the demand will definitely exceed the supply."
Su Yu not only proposed the willingness to make additional investments, but also provided a modern sales idea, "In order to facilitate sales, Uncle Chen, you can distribute the goods to other small vendors, such as traveling merchants. This way, everyone can get a share without attracting envy, and you can make money together."
Carpenter Chen declined: "How can that be possible? How can I use Mr. Su's money?"
Su Yu said, "I will consider this five thousand taels as a loan from you, Uncle Chen. During the period of repayment, I will take an additional 10% of the profit, that is, I will take 60% and you will take 40%. When you pay it back, we will still split it 50-50. How do you think?"
Carpenter Chen and Chen Dahu were both stunned. This Young Master Su trusted them too much to be willing to lend them so much money.
Chen Dahu couldn't help but ask Su Yu: "Five thousand taels is not a small amount of money, Master Su. You just lent it to my father and me. Aren't you afraid that we won't be able to pay it back?"
Su Yu smiled confidently and said, "Is there a possibility that I am very confident about this business?"
Carpenter Chen was deeply touched. This Young Master Su really trusted them and even thought of how to sell the goods for them. He must do a good job and must not let Young Master Su's money go to waste.
Su Yu then drafted a loan agreement, stipulating that 10% of the profit from the toothbrush business would be used as interest on the 5,000 taels until the principal was paid off. Carpenter Chen signed his name neatly.
Xie An took out five silver notes with a face value of one thousand taels from his pocket and handed them to Uncle Chen. After Uncle Chen took it, he still felt a little confused and his feet felt a little dizzy.
The two then agreed to officially start selling toothbrushes one month later.
Su Yu also plans to recruit people to set up a factory to produce toothpaste. He has already made up his mind to hand over the full responsibility of the factory to Xie An, and he will be in charge of everything at that time.
Once things are on track, he can just be a hands-off boss.
Su Yu and Xie An politely escorted Carpenter Chen and his group to the door.
When Su Yu returned to the flower hall, her mother asked with certainty, "Did Carpenter Chen want to discuss something with you?"
Su Yu said: "Talk to me about some cooperation, just to make this toothbrush."
Su's mother guessed: "Is it for cleaning teeth?"
"Yes," Su Yu said as she took out the exquisite little box containing the toothbrush.
When Su's mother opened the box and saw the finely crafted and polished toothbrush, she was pleasantly surprised. "My son is so smart! I've never seen anyone come up with such a brilliant idea before."
Her son has brought her so many surprises these days.
"Brother, I want it too," Su Wanwan said coquettishly.
"Everyone has one, everyone has one. Everyone in our mansion has one," Su Yu announced loudly.
Su Wanwan looked very happy. Her brother was really amazing. Although her previous brother was not bad to her, he did not have so many wonderful ideas. She liked her current brother very much.
She thought to herself that maybe her brother had been studying hard recently, so his brain had become more flexible.
