268 Brand Image Shop

Yu Bing didn’t notice that Xiao Sheng’s mood had changed from tense to relieved. Her mind was on how to increase the food factory’s orders.

Yu Bing had new ideas recently. After returning to the factory yesterday and keeping an eye on the current production volume, she became even more determined to carry out her plans.

When she saw Xiao Sheng, she wanted to mention it to him and ask for his opinion. After all, Xiao Sheng couldn’t take the salary of a sales consultant without doing anything. “Xiao Sheng, there’s something I want to discuss with you. Come with me to the factory first.”

Xiao Sheng replied, “Alright, I have something to tell you too.”

Because Cui Jin wasn’t an employee of the factory, it wasn’t convenient for him to stay in the factory for a long time. He could only help Jiang Chun chop firewood and carry water. Then, he watched Jiang Chun and the others leave.

Yu Bing told Xiao Sheng her plan. “I want to open a brand image shop in each of the ten cities in the province. Only our food factory’s products will be displayed inside.”

Xiao Sheng quickly searched for memories of the sort of shop that Yu Bing had mentioned in his mind. After a fruitless search, he could only ask humbly, “What is a brand image shop?”

This was a marketing method in the future. In this era, it seemed a little too advanced, so Yu Bing decided to explain it to Xiao Sheng. “It’s a method to advertise our factory’s brand and let more people know about our food factory.”

When Xiao Sheng thought of the current economic system, he asked, “But the shops outside are all state-owned. We can’t open a shop in the name of the village’s food factory!”

Yu Bing smiled. “Think outside of the box! Our shop won’t delivery good. We’ll only accept orders from offices.”

Xiao Sheng quickly understood. “Isn’t this just a combination of a shop and an office? It’s equivalent to changing from retail to only accepting wholesale orders, but it will have an additional product display function.”

Yu Bing snapped her fingers. She knew that once she told Xiao Sheng, he would definitely understand her thoughts quickly.

She looked at Xiao Sheng with sparkling eyes as she said, “Yes, that’s right! The office and the Commerce Bureau will still have the signboard of the food factory, but we’ll add the function of displaying orders and giving orders to the factory. We won’t sell goods to the public directly, so this isn’t against the law.”

Xiao Sheng looked at Yu Bing in admiration as he said, “I wanted to tell you how I plan expand my business scope. I plan to add a channel to City T. I was thinking of asking you to approve the factory’s request to accept orders from there, but with your current speed of development, I won’t have to worry at all.”

“But there’s another problem. If the orders are so spread out, have you thought about how to deliver them all?”

Yu Bing stared at Xiao Sheng with a smile, but didn’t speak. Xiao Sheng immediately understood and said with a chuckle, “You seem to have thought about it long ago. Do you plan to use my transport team?”

Yu Bing widened her eyes and nodded vigorously. She had no choice. The factory’s tractors had been obtained by Mr. Bai with great difficulty. It hadn’t been that long after, but she already needed a few more tractors. Mr. Bai probably wouldn’t even let her enter the office next time.

Yu Bing’s sparkling eyes made Xiao Sheng’s heart race. He couldn’t help but blame Yu Bing for being so charming!

Xiao Sheng looked away and pretended to be calm as he said, “No problem. I’ll sell them to you at the market price.”

Yu Bing panicked when she heard that it would be at the market price. How much would it cost to make a trip at the market price? “Don’t you know how poor our factory is?! We have a huge debt.”

Xiao Sheng turned his gaze back to Yu Bing and said with a smile, “My buddies have to earn money too. Although our prices are based on the market price, you can compare the quality of the service and see if it’s safer and faster than other convoys.”

Xiao Sheng’s convoy was made up of people left behind by Brother Qiang and some people recruited by Zhang Chao. They were idle people he knew and trusted. The convoy was considered a formal sideline business derived from the black market.

The convoy was in Zhou Qun’s name. Zhou Qun and his sister were very loyal to Xiao Sheng and were from the county city, so they were perfect for the job.

The government was already very strict with for-profit companies, so convoys were even more strictly regulated.

The people from the district administrative office pitied Zhou Qun for not having a job and having to support his sister. The siblings relied on each other at such a young age, so sometimes, when they saw Zhou Qun appear in the black market in private, they would turn a blind eye. After all, people had to survive.

The clerk couldn’t bear to see Zhou Qun and his sister camping on the street all day long while trying to organize a convoy, so after Zhou Qun filled in the various forms, he relented.
