Chapter 95 Dealers

Fry the fish in a large pot and put it on a large plate. Drop the sauce on it and Nie Mao served it on the table. Du Zhongxiao likes this squirrel mandarin fish very much. Whenever he arrives, it will definitely be promoted. The fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce is sour and sweet, which is very similar to the taste of this era. Of course, the oil is not cheap in this era and the high price of fried food is also one of the reasons.

Sitting at the table, Nie Mao poured a glass of wine for his brother and said, "This is a big fish I just caught. The meat tastes very delicious. Brother, please try it."

Nie Sheng looked at the four dishes on the table and smiled, "The third brother has not been out for many days, but he actually learned how to cook. I really didn't expect it. But the kitchen is a place for women after all, so I just need to do it. Third brother should not be flirted with it. If you have time, just spend your time on the main business."

Tong Anlu, who was accompanying him, said: "My brother doesn't know that we can't compare to outside. We work on time and go home to rest. Where can we do a lot of things? We eat in the cafeteria every day, and it's delicious, and we're tired of eating. When we go outside, we're far away, and no matter how easy it is to meet any of the things we want to eat. If there is no marriage, everyone can cook several dishes."

Nie Sheng said: "Everything here in the Iron Supervisor is indeed different from other places, and I won't say much. As long as my third brother lives happily here, everything will be fine. I heard that it is not easy for the Iron Supervisor to get married here. When I go back this time, I will ask my family to help you do it."

Tong Anlu, who was on the other side, heard this and hurriedly came forward and said, "Brother, if it is convenient, please help me find out about my family."

Nie Sheng laughed and said, "Why are you very good?" The treatment of workers in the Iron Prison is much better than that of farmers outside. Tong Anlu is a technician. He pays a higher salary and has good conditions in all aspects. It is not easy to get married. There are too few women in the Iron Prison, but it is not easy. Henan Mansion is much simpler.

It is now the twelfth lunar month. Iron Supervisor has produced a large number of agricultural tools. Recently, it is looking for merchants to sell on behalf of others in various states to establish sales networks. Nie Mao did a good job in Iron Supervisor, so the Nie family started to think about it. The second brother Nie Sheng came and just agreed.

The iron regulator ships goods, the Nie family leaves the shop, and cooperates to build a chamber of iron selling tools in Xijing Henan Prefecture. The working capital needed is shared by the iron regulator and the Nie family. The Nie family is the sales representative of the iron regulator in Henan Prefecture. If there are local merchants who are willing to join the association, they will refer to the same model and invest in the store and share the working capital with the chamber of commerce. In this way, the stocks are combined layer by layer and continue to sink to the county and township.

At this time, the business model, in addition to independent stores, is a joint venture in the form of a company. It will focus on commerce and finance, and is derived from the chamber of commerce in towns, while the society will focus on agriculture and commerce, and is derived from the villages and communities in the countryside. It will focus on making money, while the society will have the nature of mutual assistance, with a slight difference.

At this time, the associations were both similar and different from later industrial and commercial enterprises, with equity and dividends, but the responsibilities were not clear. Many associations hired special supervisors, similar to later professional managers, as third parties to restrain them.

The Iron Supervision is an official business, and cooperation with local governments is actually a joint business of official business. However, in this era, those who are not so clear in the division, as long as they pay attention to avoiding relatives and friends who have relationships with them, no one can say anything.

Nie Mao has passed the study stage and has become a formal employee of the Iron Supervision Bureau, and has also been separated from residence. Nie Sheng lives with him this time.

After drinking a glass of wine, Nie Sheng said, "I saw the iron tools made by the Iron Supervisor. They all use good steel, which is not comparable to local local iron tools. The price of the Iron Supervisor is not high, so it will definitely be easy to sell when you go back. The only bad thing is that the Iron Supervisor has too many rules, but it is not easy to get started. I learned some of them, but after a short time, I can only know the basics. My third brother learned well here. After a few days, my family will send someone to take care of you and teach them by the way."

Nie Mao didn't know the sales policy of the Iron Supervision. My brother had not asked in detail these days. After hearing this, he asked: "Our family sells ironware on behalf of others. It's just that we purchase goods here and collect money from the goods there. After earning money, we share the money evenly with the Iron Supervision. What's the point of learning?"

Nie Sheng said: "It's not so easy. The first way to keep accounts is different from before. It's extra careful. It's okay not to learn it? I heard that the Iron Supervisor will check the accounts every three months, and there are occasional undercover investigations. If you don't do it well, the business will not be completed. Also, the iron tools sold by the Iron Supervisor must be able to repair them. Every place has to send people to learn here and go back to repair them. For ordinary minor problems, the county requires that the bigger ones be able to repair them. If the prefectures cannot repair them, they will be sent to the Iron Supervisor. If you go to the Iron Supervisor, you will have to collect additional money. Think about it, in order to make more money, the blacksmiths you find at home will learn as much as possible. If you repair everything yourself, you will earn the money yourself."

Tong Anlu smiled and said, "I haven't heard of this. The goods are still repaired after being sold. In this way, who cares about goods?"

Nie Sheng said: "It's not that there is no money for repairing anything. The Iron Supervisor has a booklet. What kind of goods is not good, it needs to be repaired and replaced. What kind of problem has nothing to do with the goods. Repairing and replacement costs money. We just do things according to the booklet."

Tong Anlu and Nie Sheng were both curious when they heard this. They had never heard of doing business like this. They asked questions while drinking.

There are also after-sales services in this era, but they are all in big cities like Kaifeng Prefecture, and there are not many. Du Zhongxiao formulated a detailed after-sales service system for the Iron Supervision, and there was no intention to seize the market. Iron Supervision had no competitors at all. The main purpose was two, one was to establish a brand and consolidate the market, and the other was to set a benchmark for the times and promote social progress.

In the official railway supervision, technology and management are far ahead of the times. If you just want to make money, you feel that it is too low-level. What you should do is to promote social progress from all aspects. These details are difficult for others to imitate.

The production scale of the Iron Supervision Corporation is already very large, but the market has not yet been cultivated. The best thing to sell is various small iron tools. Taking advantage of the slack season in winter, Du Zhongxiao used his power to transfer the judge to conduct large-scale investment in Wenzhou and County on Jingxi Road. The agricultural tools produced by the Iron Supervision Corporation are mainly made of steel, and the price is basically the same as those of the iron, and there are no competitors at this time. In the words of later generations, it is a dimensional reduction blow to the steel industry in this road. In addition to common agricultural tools, there are new equipment such as pressurized wells, coal ball furnaces, and daily tools such as knives, scissors, tweezers, needles, etc.

If a farmer completes commonly used farm tools, such as plows, hoes, sickles, iron shovels, rakes, etc., it will take 20 to 30 sig, and the market is not small. In addition to some of the plow parts, the farm tools produced by iron supervision are all made of steel, which is durable and easy to use. Steel utensils can be distinguished at a glance, so there is no need to worry that farmers don’t know the goods.

Such a store requires a large amount of money just to prepare stocks. However, the sales network of Iron and Steel Corporation deliberately decoupled from the guild and maintained its autonomy, mainly small merchants. Therefore, it adopts the form of a combined stock, and Iron and Steel Corporation uses the first batch of goods to share profits with the dealer.

The Nie family is led by Henan Prefecture, and it is not the only one. His family is not a big businessman, and the first batch of goods cannot be used for the same principal. Nie Mao played a lot of great role in the Iron Supervision. Many participating families have no idea about Iron Supervision. There are people in it, so they can ask and give advice from time to time, and avoid many detours.

The Iron Supervision has spent more than 200,000 guan, and there are nearly 300,000 guan. The payment for selling steel can basically be maintained, but it is not easy to expand. Only by establishing a market and increasing sales volume can it make profits.
