A new day, a new atmosphere.

Xu Fei arrived at the toy factory and found that the security team was wearing new uniforms.

Black clothes, black rubber boots, black berets, black armed belts, walkie-talkies, small sunglasses, work badges...

They looked spirited!

"Factory Director, good morning!"

"Hehe, good, very good!"

Turn around and let Da Ma give a beating later. Why shout so loudly.

Walk into the factory area.

Da Ma was training nine young men.

As a legitimate foreign enterprise, the security team must be standardized.

Pre-job training, regular assessments, issuance of TEP international security certificates for those who meet the requirements, and evaluation of professional levels based on years of experience.

When Da Ma proposed this suggestion, Xu Fei agreed without hesitation.

And while standing far away to admire for a moment, he ran to the window of the workshop to secretly observe like a class teacher.

Assembly line workers wore sky blue.

Warehouse workers wore wine red.

Registration and inspection workers wore gray and white.

Everyone worked hard, strictly following the production regulations, and they all had a sense of purpose.

Xu Fei took a stroll and arrived at the office building.

Lao Huang and twenty salespeople were leaning on the table, making a sales plan based on the map of Swamp City.

Who is responsible for which township, who is responsible for supply and transportation, who is responsible for supervising the accounts...

The day before yesterday, Director Monk from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative helped to handle the entire city's supply and marketing, and also contacted many school canteens, resulting in more than eighty distribution points.

If it were any other newly established company, they would probably be in chaos.

But Xu Fei's company was an old sales company for electric fans.

Is that it?

Just a small matter!

Xu Fei was also happy to have a leisurely job. He glanced around, casually turned on the computer, and started the Factory Director's daily routine: browsing forums.

Little did he know.

After a few minutes, the fax machine that had never been used suddenly made a creaking sound.

Everyone was a little confused for a moment.

What the hell is this?

When half of the paper was spit out, Lao Huang finally realized.

"It's a fax!"

As he spoke, he waited for the paper to be completely spit out and picked it up to take a look.

In an instant, his gaze became blank.

Xu Fei felt a thump in his heart when he saw this.

Could it be that the made-up story about the foreign enterprise has been exposed?

Suddenly.

Lao Huang exclaimed and slapped his thigh happily, "Factory Director, great news!"

"What is it?"

"The document signed by the Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative Council. The general idea is that in order to further accelerate the reform of grassroots supply and marketing cooperatives, starting today, each branch will open a TEP Company counter in the form of supply and marketing cooperation to carry out this pilot project."

"The Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"

"Yes, Factory Director. Our toy factory is going to be famous. Are you happy?"

"..."

Just two days ago, he was thinking that the made-up story about the foreign enterprise would stop at the county level.

He tried his best not to let the city leaders find out, otherwise it would be easy to expose.

But now.

It went straight to the provincial level.

Xu Fei sat back at his desk, feeling his hands and feet go cold.

But after thinking about it, since the Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative approved the document, it means they didn't find any problems with TEP.

If it wasn't discovered, what is there to worry about?

Besides, it's the Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative, not the Provincial Government.

Thinking like this, he picked up the fax and carefully read it.

The general idea is:

TEP Company can set up counters in grassroots supply and marketing cooperatives to sell their own qualified toys. This supply and marketing cooperation does not require any supply and marketing fees or consignment fees, and does not involve dividends or profit sharing. It is equivalent to a free pilot cooperation project, supervised by the local city government.

If agreed, sign and send back the fax. It is equivalent to signing a supply and marketing agreement with the Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative Council, and the agreement will take effect from the signing date.

"We don't need to pay any fees. This treatment is too good. Lao Huang, see if there are any problems."

"Other than providing the counter, there are no other problems."

"Everyone, take a look."

The salespeople browsed through the fax and pondered to themselves, "The agreement is formal and legitimate, but the other party doesn't want any fees... This treatment is indeed too good."

"We are a foreign enterprise. I guess the local government wants to keep our parent company tied to the local area to avoid attracting investment from other regions."

"That makes sense. Then there shouldn't be any problems."

"Since there are no problems, should we agree?"

The Supply and Marketing Cooperative is a unit, not a company or enterprise.

Xu Fei didn't have any doubts about the agreement in the first place. He just felt a bit uneasy when he saw that there were no fees involved, so he let everyone take a look. Now that everyone says there are no problems, he has no more doubts.

He picked up a carbon pen and wrote his name.

The salespeople removed the map of Swamp City and replaced it with a map of East Mountain.

They began discussing again.

"One person, one city, let's go and investigate first."

"Huang Manager, contact transportation and arrange someone to oversee the overall situation."

"No, we don't have enough manpower. I'll contact Lao Gu and the others."

"Bring Lao Wang back too."

"The city of Yan is a bit far, it will take at least a day by train for transportation."

"Then let's combine Yan City and Wei City into one region and assign two people to be stationed there."

"That makes sense. The southeastern direction towards the city and the neighboring city are mostly mountainous areas, so we should do it this way."

"Let's divide East Mountain into grids, including railways and highways..."

Everyone was talking at once, and they each wrote their distribution plans on a small blackboard.

They immediately began discussing the sales plan.For instance, the Mechanical Three Kingdoms toys are not suitable for children, and some Supply and Marketing Cooperatives can only serve as transit stations. Everyone's goal is to target high school snack shops or university canteen supermarkets, so we need to discuss this.

For instance, traditional tin toys are suitable for children. With their large quantity and low price, they can cover all Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, incentivizing the sales staff with a profit-sharing model.

Once the sales plan, distribution plan, and transportation plan are determined, the only thing left is the stock quantity.

After some calculations...

East Mountain has 1900 grassroots Supply and Marketing Cooperatives.

For each type of traditional tin toy, each Cooperative will supply 200 pieces, making it 2000 pieces for ten types.

The first supply to all of East Mountain will be at least 400,000 pieces. Based on our own production capacity, it can be done in 10 days.

For each type of Mechanical Three Kingdoms toy, each Cooperative will supply 200 pieces. With five heroes in the early stage, that's 1000 pieces.

The first supply to all of East Mountain will be at least 200,000 pieces. Based on our own production capacity, it can be done in 5 days.

Therefore, we need to adjust the production line, strive to package both types of toys within a week, and leave some stock for foreign trade orders.

Also, we need to prepare for the second week's replenishment, the third week's replenishment...

Additionally, we need to make special counters.

This novel is available on bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

This is simple. When the salespeople go to various places to investigate, they can ask the sales staff at the Supply and Marketing Cooperatives to find a carpenter to make a glass counter according to the space provided by the Cooperative. It can be done in about a day.

"We will set off now, each person in charge of a city. Once we arrive, we will first order the counters. By the time we return from the investigation, the stock should be almost ready." Old Huang listed the itinerary on the calendar, made copies, and handed them to the salespeople. "Those without mobile phones, come with me to get one. Any other issues?"

"We promise to complete the task!"

Xu Fei took out fifty thousand in cash, "Each person will be advanced two thousand, and you can reimburse with receipts when you return."

"Thank you, Factory Director!"

"The rest is for Old Huang to buy mobile phones. I'll wait here for everyone's triumphant return!"

"Victory to the tin toys!"

As the saying goes, the beginning is always the hardest.

The first distribution will certainly encounter many problems.

But as long as they are solved, we will only be responsible for supplying in the future.

Xu Fei sent everyone off in the four Jinbei Sea Lions that had been added to the fleet. He could faintly hear:

'Once East Mountain is settled, South River is next!'

'Then I'll go to North River!'

'Someone has to go to North River, right?'

'Hey, who would have thought that we old guys, who are almost in the grave, could still accomplish a great business before we die!'

'That's because Factory Director Little Xu doesn't despise us for being backward and dares to hire and use us.'

When the Jinbei Sea Lions disappeared from the entrance of the toy factory.

The village head came over pushing his bicycle, "Little Xu, I think our factory is almost ready. When will the opening ceremony be held? You can't keep putting it off."

"How about a week from now?"

"Okay, I'll let the village secretary know."

The two of them were talking as they walked into the office.

The village head saw the fax, picked it up and looked at it, "This..."

"What's wrong, leader? Any problems?"

"No problem, it's very beneficial to the toy factory and the general cooperative, but... I'm afraid you don't have enough money."

"What do you mean?"

"You should know, not every place is the same. Our Yellow Mud Hillock Supply and Marketing Cooperative has Xiao Lou, because he was part of the last batch of graduates from the Secondary Vocational School, who happened to be doing their internship. The Cooperative was not emptied out, so a position was created.

In other places... if the Cooperative has already closed, naturally there won't be any staff arrangements. And from my estimation, out of the 1900 grassroots Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, at least 1000 are not open."

"???"

"The building is empty, there's no staff or counter, what's the point of opening? So, they want you to provide the counter."

"So if I provide the counter, do I also need to provide the staff?"

"Yes, otherwise who will sell the goods?"

"..."
