Chapter 45: Women Can Hold Up Half the Sky

The sales manager was a shrewd man with a round face.

Seeing that it was two women who came in, he couldn’t help but frown slightly.

His eyes were a little dismissive, “So you’re the ones who want to buy our factory’s defective goods?”

“Let’s get the unpleasant things out of the way first, I don’t know if you’ve cooperated with us before, but our factory’s defective goods are different from other factories, even if they are defective goods, they are still very popular here.”

“If you want to pick up goods, you have to show your sincerity.”

Yu Hong was immediately intimidated by the middle-aged man’s aura.

She’s been in business for so many years, she’s seen all kinds of people.

But this factory is different to her.

It’s like a “white moonlight that she can’t get.”

Now this white moonlight finally gave her a good look, she was already in a weak position.

This sales manager was also arrogant, she didn’t react for a moment.

Xia Keqing stood beside Yu Hong all the time, the middle-aged man only glanced at her when she first came in, and didn’t give her another look.

He probably thought she was Yu Hong’s assistant.

Before Yu Hong could speak, the middle-aged man suddenly muttered in a low voice, “Women shouldn’t be running businesses, they should be at home taking care of their husbands and children, it’s not proper!”

Xia Keqing’s expression darkened, she stared at him for a while.

Perhaps her gaze was too sharp, the middle-aged man finally noticed her.

“What are you looking at? You little girl are not decent, does your mother teach you to stare at men like that?”

“I’m old enough to be your father, you’re shameless!”

Xia Keqing was amused by the middle-aged man’s tone.

She snorted, “I’m looking at the back of your head.”

The middle-aged man was puzzled by Xia Keqing’s words.

Xia Keqing: “Where’s the braid on the back of your head?”

“The Qing Dynasty has been gone for a long time, do you know that?”

“Oh, you know, then why did you shave your braid? Where did the braid go? I know, it must be tangled in your little brain. It’s been tangled for a few rounds, right?”

“You! You! You! What are you talking about?”

The middle-aged man was so angry that he couldn’t speak.

Yu Hong reacted at this time.

“Well said!”

“I haven’t introduced myself yet, my name is Yu Hong, I’m the boss of a clothing company, this is Xia Keqing, my niece, she’s also the boss of a clothing studio, we’re all women, but I don’t think women should be at home taking care of their husbands and children.”

“It’s a new era now, women can hold up half the sky, why are you saying that we women can only stay at home and take care of our husbands and children?”

“We want to buy your factory’s goods, we’re looking for a win-win situation, what? Do you want a bribe?”

The middle-aged man’s chubby face turned red.

He does receive “gifts” from customers every year.

These are unspoken rules, everyone knows.

But being exposed in such a straightforward way by this woman made him lose face.

Yu Hong continued, “Then I want to ask your factory director, is this the rule for all cooperation with your factory?”

“If that’s the case, I’ll go and tell people that your Xuefei Clothing Factory has this rule, so that everyone who comes here in the future will know whether they want to cooperate with you!”

The middle-aged man’s forehead was sweating profusely.

Part of his income as sales manager was from gifts from customers.

He always thought that the factory director couldn’t possibly not know about this?

He just turned a blind eye.

If these two women make a big fuss, the factory will have to maintain its reputation, they will definitely make him the scapegoat, what then?

“Don’t, don’t, don’t!”

“Sister, let’s talk, let’s talk!”

Yu Hong snorted coldly, “We’ve been planning to talk nicely since we came in, you’re the one who doesn’t want to talk nicely to us.”

“Also, who’s your sister? Just call me Yu Zong.”

“This is Xia Zong.”

The middle-aged man, Ding Jianfei, tasted defeat for the first time, “Yes, yes, my name is Ding Jianfei, just call me Lao Ding.”

The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead, he couldn’t help but feel a little resentment.

What kind of people are these!

He said women are petty!

But he didn’t dare to say these words, he could only coax Yu Hong and Xia Keqing.

Yu Hong also wanted to turn around and leave with dignity.

But she couldn’t easily give up this hard-won opportunity.

“Don’t be afraid.”

She looked at Ding Jianfei coldly, “This is the first time my niece and I have come here, if we have offended you, please forgive us, Manager Ding.”

Ding Jianfei didn’t dare to be arrogant anymore, his tone became much more polite.

Mainly because he knew these two women were not easy to deal with.

Xia Keqing gave Yu Hong a wink, and Yu Hong immediately asked to see the goods.

How could Ding Jianfei refuse?

Not only did he dare not refuse these two ancestors to see the goods, he even took the initiative to lead the way.

The three of them walked and talked, Yu Hong and Xia Keqing knew that this Manager Ding was related to the factory director, as the sales manager, he was also a semi-core member.

He had a say in everything related to sales.

No wonder he was so arrogant.

After Xia Keqing and Yu Hong saw the goods, Yu Hong was immediately overjoyed, she nodded to Xia Keqing repeatedly.

This batch of goods was said to be defective, but actually the defects didn’t affect much.

It wouldn’t affect sales, it’s just that this clothing factory has stricter quality control, so any slightly substandard parts become defective products.

Yu Hong was so excited, she also thought about the money she had on hand, she couldn’t help but hesitate, and she revealed that she might not be able to take this batch of goods, Ding Jianfei immediately returned to his arrogant self.

“What? You can’t take this batch of goods?”

“Although this batch of goods is defective, you also saw that the quality is very good, if it were placed in other factories that don’t have such strict quality control, it would be completely a quality product. I’ve said it before, our goods are not hard to sell at all, so I hope to find someone who can take this whole batch of goods.”

“We can’t handle it in batches, that’s a waste of time and energy. Time is money, you know?”

Yu Hong felt a little guilty, but facing someone like Ding Jianfei, she couldn’t be timid, she immediately straightened her chest, “Then tell me, how much is this batch of goods in total?”

“We need to keep some funds for turnover in our business, the amount of working capital we can take out is not that much. If the price is right, I will definitely find a way to raise the money.”

Ding Jianfei was full of doubts.

But he still quoted a high price.

Yu Hong had never cooperated with Xuefei Clothing Factory, but she had been in the factory’s clothing, but she had been charged extra by others, so she roughly knew the cost and profit margin.

But considering that Manager Ding’s impression on Yu Hong was not good.

She didn’t trust his character, so she asked, “You wouldn’t be deliberately retaliating against us, would you?”

“Is this really the bottom price of your factory?”

Ding Jianfei was so angry that he wanted to swear.

It’s true that the goods are not hard to sell, but once they are called defective, most people will still think carefully.

The factory gave him a target, the extra part he could swallow himself.

In other words, this is related to his interests.

These two women didn’t give gifts and didn’t understand the rules, and they even bargained?

At this moment, Ding Jianfei really didn’t want to do business with them.

He patiently said, “If you want it, sign the contract, if you don’t, then please feel free to leave.”
