Chapter 154 Chen Xiuying Talks Business
After all these years, Xue Jing was now interested in any product Zhou Dajiang designed. If Zhou Dajiang didn't make a splash, it was fine, but when he did, it was always a hit. He immediately took the blueprint and looked at it.
Xue Jing saw two drawings: one with "flush toilet" and the other with "bathtub." Besides the main image, the drawings also listed some auxiliary accessories, but Xue Jing couldn't understand them, so he asked Chen Xiuying, "What's the difference between these two products and the toilets and bathtubs we use now?"
Although this was the first time Chen Xiuying was discussing business with Xue Jing, she was also an elite in the workplace in modern times, so a simple product description was naturally no problem for her.
"The word that sums up these two products is 'convenience'.
Let's talk about the 'flush toilet' first. Every household has a toilet, and someone has to replace and clean it every day. This flush toilet is much easier. Just install it, and after each use, just reach out and flip the switch, and it will complete the flushing and cleaning by itself.
The same goes for the bathtub. With the bathtubs we use now, you need to boil water, carry it inside, pour it into the tub, and then carry it out again after use. This bathtub is much easier. The water is boiled outside, so you don't have to carry it in. Simply turn on the tap on the tub, and the water will flow out. And when you're done, you don't have to take it out to pour it out. Simply pull the plug at the bottom of the tub, and the water will automatically drain out."
Xue Jing was immediately interested after hearing this. The two things Zhou Dajiang designed this time were not only products, but also a major bathroom renovation! If they could seize this opportunity, they would make more money than their previous small-scale operations!
"To be honest with you, I am very interested in these two things. I wonder if Brother Dajiang is free now. I want to talk to him as soon as possible." If possible, he would like to go and talk to him now!
Chen Xiuying replied, "As you know, we are here for the purpose of scientific research. Therefore, he is currently studying in Jixianzhai. However, my husband has explained to me the principles and installation methods of these two things. As long as the products and accessories are made according to the drawings, I can teach your staff the remaining installation parts."
But business is business, and as you know, we've just arrived in Beijing and need money a lot, so I think we should try a different way of cooperation this time."
With her husband preparing for a science exam, Chen Xiuying had to handle the renovations herself. Zhou Dajiang wouldn't have let her go alone if the project was too difficult, but fortunately, the principles behind these two projects were relatively simple, and Chen Xiuying was confident she could explain them clearly.
"It's no problem to make it. We have our own kiln. I wonder how your sister-in-law wants to cooperate this time?"
"This time, it's not just about selling products; it also involves subsequent installation issues. So, I'm thinking about setting up a renovation workshop that specializes in bathroom renovations. We'll still provide technical guidance, and Datong Trading Company will be responsible for the funding and manpower."
When Zhou Dajiang first mentioned it to her, he only told her to talk to Xue Jing about the two products. However, after seeing Xue Jing's reaction, Chen Xiuying immediately upgraded her idea. Instead of just selling products, why not just set up a decoration company? That way, they could not only get a share of the product revenue, but also get a share of the decoration costs.
Xue Jing, the head shopkeeper, had this idea after hearing Chen Xiuying talk about the product features. He didn't expect that she would say it in advance. However, Xue Jing never looked down on women. Women who could come out to discuss business were not simple. His boss was one, and so was Zhou Dajiang's wife.
"I wonder what the technical guidance that my sister-in-law mentioned is?"
"Product upgrades and guidance on plumbing installation. You also know that plumbing installation is very important if you want to use these two products well, so are these two points enough?" These are already the core technology of the decoration company. The rest of finding someone to install them is simple. If these are not enough, Chen Xiuying thought, then she might look for other people to cooperate with.
Fortunately, she didn't have to worry too much. Xue Jing readily agreed to cooperate and even agreed to the 50-50 profit sharing proposed by Chen Xiuying.
The two of them quickly signed the contract. Shopkeeper Xue handed it to her and said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law is the second person I've ever met who is so decisive in doing business. I only knew your sister-in-law was a good craftsman before, but I didn't expect that when it comes to business, she's no less capable than Dajiang."
Zhou Dajiang only asked for 25% from him, but this little woman was much more ruthless and asked for 50% right away!
However, even if it is 50%, Datong Trading Company will still make a profit. After all, orders for kiln firing will also increase.
After signing the contract, Chen Xiuying felt much more relaxed. Fortunately, she was lucky that the shopkeeper Xue did not discriminate against women. So she smiled and said, "It seems that the shopkeeper Xue has come into contact with other women in business. If there is a chance, I would like to meet them." The woman who could be praised by the shopkeeper Xue was definitely not an ordinary person.
This time, the shopkeeper Xue did not agree readily, "This, I'm afraid it will be difficult, let's wait for a chance in the future." The boss is not someone who can meet anyone who wants to, so he didn't dare to agree easily.
Chen Xiuying had only said it casually, and when she saw that the other party disagreed, she immediately forgot about it. The two of them then only talked about the baking of these two things.
"To be honest, Master, the reason I brought out these two drawings this time is because I'm renovating my own house. If they can be fired as soon as possible, we can see the subsequent laying of the pipes sooner. Also, these drawings also include matching water pipes. The material is not limited, copper pipes or iron pipes are both fine, but the faucets and elbows must be cast to prevent leaks."
Xue Jing also wanted to start this business as soon as possible, so he immediately agreed and provided it free of charge. It would be best if he could find a place to test the results.
Then, he thought about the subsequent sales. These two items were not small, and it would not be appropriate to put them in a grocery store. Moreover, if he just talked about it, people would not see the effect. He knew Zhou Dajiang's ability. If he took action, he would definitely achieve the effect his sister-in-law said, but others would not!
So he consulted Chen Xiuying, "We've signed the contract, and now I want to set up a decoration workshop. I wonder if you have any advice on how to sell our products?"
Chen Xiuying didn't say what she thought, and said directly: "This is simple. First, burn the two things, prepare the water pipes and accessories, and then find a shop to install the toilet and bathtub. When people come, just demonstrate it directly. I believe everyone will be impressed when they see the effect. The rest of the installation will be a natural process." Isn't it obvious that saying it a thousand times is not as convincing as demonstrating it once?
