Chapter 56 Making a Small Fortune After staying in Gusu for one night, I got up early the next day and drove back to Shanghai. Although there was no need to punch in and the weekly meeting did not start until 16:, Luo Yang still arrived at Jincheng Building before : and took the elevator to the th floor. Liang Yuxin's office is on the 16th floor. As her assistant, Luo Yang naturally has to move to the 16th floor to work. A little after nine o'clock, accompanied by the sound of high heels hitting the ground, Liang Yuxin appeared in Luo Yang's sight. "Xiao Luo, make me a cup of jasmine tea." Seeing Luo Yang at his workstation, Liang Yuxin showed a satisfied look. After giving some instructions, she went into her office. "Mr. Liang, your scented tea." Not long after, Luo Yang brought the brewed scented tea into the office. Although she was only the vice president, the area of her office was not much smaller than Lao Liang's, and the decoration was obviously modern with cool colors, and a bit of Nordic minimalist style. "Have you received your salary last month?" "Yes, including the sales commission, the total is more than 55,000."
On the first day of work after the National Day, the Finance Department clocked in his September after-tax salary. "No wonder you didn't take a break during the holidays and were desperate to go to the sales office to sell houses!" Liang Yuxin finally understood why Luo Yang was going to the sales office on National Day, so she added, "I promised you a monthly subsidy of 1 yuan, starting from this month." "Thank you, Mr. Liang!" "You were not here a few days ago, so the documents from HR and administration were handed over directly to me." After chatting, Liang Yuxin talked about work. She tapped the stack of documents in front of her with her fingers: "These documents have been signed and approved. Remember to hand them over to Lu Na in the director's office after the weekly meeting." She is only the deputy general manager in charge, and the process needs to be approved by the chairman. "Mr. Liang, I still suggest you hire an administrative secretary. After all, I am a part-time worker and I cannot take care of many functional tasks." "That's the idea." Liang Yuxin glanced at Luo Yang and said, "Why, Assistant Luo, do you mean that if you don't work part-time, you can still handle administrative work?" As he spoke, he casually pulled out the top document from the stack, handed it to Luo Yang and said, "Tell me your suggestion." This is an administrative purchase order, mostly for items like tobacco and alcohol. Generally speaking, real estate companies will always keep cigarettes, alcohol, tea and other things in the warehouse of the administrative office. When other departments need them, they can just go and get them, and the administration will deduct them from their monthly department expenses. Of course, for Liang Xingmin, the purchasing is done independently by the director's office, so there are no restrictions. An ordinary person or a layman would not be able to tell what this application form means. "Boss Liang, has the budget for the Jinshan project been approved?" "The pile foundation and general contractor have been determined, and the budget has definitely been finalized." This was an obvious question, there was no way Luo Yang didn't know it, so Liang Yuxin felt a little strange. Not only did he ask the question even though he knew the answer, but she was also curious. What can be seen from a simple application form?
Is there really something you want to say? "The reason I'm asking this is because I want to first understand whether the expenses for the Jinshan project have been included." Luo Yang explained: "Generally speaking, the expense budget is reported from the previous year, with an upper limit of 5% of the project budget, and is adjusted every half year. So you need to look through the financial write-off lists of the previous few months to estimate the proportion of the expenses on this application form to the total monthly expenses, and work backwards to see if there is an overspending in October." When he said this, there was an obvious pause. Luo Yang then continued, "Of course, the administration department must have a budget for this year, and they will not report over budget. But as the deputy general manager in charge, you can at least have a rough idea of the data after understanding it, and you can also use it as a means of control when necessary." Liang Yuxin: "." "Secondly, the things purchased by the administration are a bit too rigid." Luo Yang deliberately smacked his lips and said, "It's not a festival, but you always send cigarettes, alcohol, and tea. It's strange that people can remember it." "Then what do you want to give?" "It's the season when chrysanthemums turn yellow and crabs become plump. People in Shanghai love to eat crabs. Wouldn't it be nice to give some crabs away?" Luo Yang shrugged and said, "It saves money and has a different effect." "what" The previous words were a bit confusing and needed to be slowly pondered, but the last sentence was easy to understand. Liang Yuxin's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea, how did you come up with it?" "I happened to go to Yangcheng Lake to eat crabs last night, and you asked about this today, so it's just a good opportunity to get together!" "is it?" Liang Yuxin's IQ is very high. She gave Luo Yang a meaningful look and said, "I dare not touch the administrative purchasing power for the time being. But your suggestion is indeed good. How about this? I have 20 yuan in expenses this month. I will give you 10 yuan to help me purchase a batch of Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs!" Did I mean that? Luo Yang was a little confused. It seemed like he didn't say anything just now? While Luo Yang was slightly stunned, she took back the administrative approval form and added, "Explain to me in detail about the company's expense budget this afternoon." No matter whether it is unfair or not, let’s put the blame on Luo Yang first. Luo Yang came back to his senses and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He really had no intention of grabbing the administrative procurement rights. The idea of the crab card last night was just a whim. If he really had the chance, he would talk to Liang Xingmin about this matter. How could he say it to Liang Yuxin? But Liang Yuxin gave a small reward and paid 10 yuan for the purchase in a blink of an eye. Forget it, for the sake of money, just accept it. "Boss Liang, it's almost time, we have to go to the conference room for the meeting!" Seeing that it was almost time, Luo Yang took the opportunity to change the subject and reminded Liang Yuxin that she had a meeting. "Well, I'll be there soon after I get ready. You wait for me outside." The moment Luo Yang walked out, Liang Yuxin's mouth corners involuntarily curled up. She deliberately framed Luo Yang by saying what she said just now. There was no other reason, just because Luo Yang said something that made her confused. As the vice president, don’t I need to have some dignity? There are reasons for making mistakes. One person succeeded by being stubborn and made a small profit! The weekly meeting ended without any incident. Liang Xingmin praised the marketing department at the meeting because the recent sales were indeed very good and the timely payment also strongly supported the development of the Jinshan project. After some discussion in the afternoon, Luo Yang systematically helped Liang Yuxin sort out the issues regarding the expense budget.
But she was still not satisfied and insisted on continuing. Luo Yang had no choice but to continue explaining the entire budget system. It was not until after three o'clock in the afternoon that she was satisfied and let Luo Yang leave. With some free time, Luo Yang contacted Mr. Crab, with whom he had reached a preliminary agreement last night, and ran to Songjiang to find a place to make cards. According to his idea, crab cards are divided into three types: 158, 258 and 328, which are gift boxes of eight pieces weighing taels, eight pieces weighing taels, and eight pieces weighing taels respectively. The crab card has a sealed magnetic strip, and after it is scratched, there will be a special number. After the customer contacts the Yangcheng Lake crab owner according to the number on the card, as long as the special number matches, the goods can be shipped according to the phone number and address left. From Yangcheng Lake to Shanghai, SF Express can basically deliver on the same day. As for profit Luo Yang's behavior was not that bad. He asked the crab boss to use Taihu crabs, which are actually as good as Yangcheng Lake crabs in quality, but are not as famous. Even so, the price difference is more than one-third. So if Luo Yang is not greedy, the profit will be at least 30%. Make a small profit. (End of this chapter)
