Chapter 67: A Small Status! Watermelons Grow Too Fast!
After making the plan, Qin Lin naturally had to implement it. After feeding Wang Cai honey water, he said to Zhao Moqing, “I’ll go to the city to buy a few milk tea sealing machines and order a batch of special cups. At the same time, I’ll get Qin Ren’s studio to help make an advertisement for the medicine honey water and order some coconut fruits.”
Zhao Moqing thought of something and said, “By the way, my brother is preparing to open a milk tea shop recently. He should have channels for coconut and milk tea plastic machines. I’ll ask him directly.”
“Alright, I’ll leave this to you. I’ll handle the rest.” Qin Lin nodded and took the small electric key on the table to leave.
Zhao Moqing stopped Qin Lin and handed him a BMW key. “Take my brother’s car.”
“You haven’t returned the car?” Qin Lin asked.
Zhao Moqing explained, “My father still has a car. He can’t drive it even if he goes to school. My brother will drive that car first. He said that it’s inconvenient to drive it on a small electric vehicle. Let us use this car first.”
“Thank my brother-in-law for me.” Qin Lin could sense Zhao Moyun’s good intentions.
Now that he was rich, it was time for him to buy a car. And the problem of the house had to be resolved.
It had been so many days since it opened, and there was already more than 1.5 million yuan in the villa’s account.
When they reached the parking lot, Qin Lin drove his brother-in-law’s BMW to Qin Ren’s studio.
“Yo, the big boss is here,” Qin Ren teased as soon as he saw him.
His other partners stood up enthusiastically to welcome him. After all, with the flow of people from Qinglin Villa, the other party would definitely have to cooperate with them in terms of advertising planning.
Hu Fei said very warmly, “What can I do for you today, President Qin?”
Qin Lin smiled and said, “I wouldn’t dare to instruct you, but I happen to need advertising plans for some products, such as okra, watermelon, strawberries, and so on. The most important thing is still medicinal honey water. I need about a 2-meter tall and 1-meter wide advertising cloth. You can help me add the content of the advertisement to relieve fatigue, slow gastritis, constipation…”
Qin Lin explained his request to Hu Fei.
At the side, Qin Ren suddenly said, “Lin Zi, does your medicine have an effect on constipation?”
Qin Lin nodded and said, “It does have some effect. Are you constipated?”
Qin Ren hurriedly shook his head in denial. “How could I be constipated? It’s a friend of mine. I’m asking for him.”
Qin Lin and Hu Fei smiled when they heard this.
When Qin Ren saw their obvious looks of disbelief, he hurriedly changed the topic. “By the way, Lin Zi, you should find a custom-made milk tea cup, seal, straw, and so on to make this medicinal honey water, right? Our studio has two customers who do this. I’ll help you pull up a WeChat group to contact them. Just let them bid for it. It’ll save you the time of running around.”
“You can do that?” Qin Lin asked in surprise.
He was just ordering some medicinal honey cups!
Qin Ren asked, “President Qin, have you not changed from your position yet? In a small place like Youcheng County, you can be considered a big boss, okay?”
“Who can do it like you, who has to limit traffic because there are too many customers? Which milk tea shop in Youcheng County can do it with just 1,500 customers?”
“How about consuming a thousand milk tea cups a day? The price for a set of three boutique cups plus LOG is about $2. They make a profit of $0.50. That’s also $15,000 a month.”
“Everyone knows that your villa will develop again. When the time comes, there will be more traffic and more consumption. In a small place like Youcheng County, you are a quality long-term customer. They would be fools not to go all out to snatch you as a client.”
“This is reality. Only the parties involved know about the hardships of starting a company in a small place. Do you think it’s a company that can easily negotiate millions or tens of millions of orders?”
Qin Lin smiled and said, “Alright, help me arrange it.”
Qin Ren didn’t waste any time. After a moment, he pulled Qin Lin into a group and pulled two more people in.
One was called Fuhai package!
One was called Xiao Chen package!
As soon as the two of them entered, they tagged Qin Ren and sent a message.
“What can I do for you, President Qin?”
“What are your orders, President Qin?”
Qin Ren didn’t waste any time. He directly tagged Qin Lin and sent a message. “This is my brother, President Qin of Qinglin Villa. He wants to customize a batch of cups. Send him your prices.”
As soon as Qin Ren’s message was released, the two of them sent a price list over at the same time.
During this period of time, the most popular place in Youcheng County was Qinglin Villa. There was an endless stream of tourists every day. If the boss of Qinglin Villa wanted to customize a cup, he would definitely consume a lot of it every day. Furthermore, it was a long-term customer, so he naturally did not dare to neglect it.
It was very stressful to do business in a small place like Youcheng County.
Qin Ren looked at the price list and said to Qin Lin, “The price is already cheaper than before.”
Qin Lin nodded.
The price lists they both handed out varied. The cheapest thin plastic cups were five cents each, the expensive ones were laminated and molded, and the PP-thickened hardcover large cups were custom-made and cost two yuan each.
Qin Lin wouldn’t choose the cheap ones either. After all, he was taking the high-end route with the gimmick of medicinal honey water. Naturally, he chose the most expensive internal sticker mold, a thick hardcover cup with a PP, and a custom-made logo.
Both of them offered two yuan, which meant that the lowest price that the two families could afford was also here.
Qin Lin thought for a moment and sent a message to the group. “Make a physical image for me to see. Print the logo of Qinglin Villa — Medicinal Honey Water.”
When the two people in the group saw this request, they did not hesitate and asked Qin Lin to wait for a while.
After a while, there was movement in the group again. The two of them had posted a video of a boutique cup. They had both printed the logo of Qinglin Villa’s medicinal honey water and had the background color.
A small place like Youcheng County shouldn’t expect the other party to have much of a custom-made logo. They were all about the same.
Qin Lin did not hesitate about this. It was fine as long as it could be used for the time being. However, he chose the Fuhai package at first glance.
The other party was smart enough to use the pattern of the Triangular Plum Blossom Sea as the background.
Sometimes it was like that. A little shine could make people decide.
Qin Ren also said to Fu Hai, “Bring your sample to my studio. I’ll make tea and wait for you.”
“Thank you, President Qin,” Fu Hai replied.
The other person had already stopped moving. When he saw the other party’s sample, he knew that he had no chance. After all, he was not as smart as the other party.
The boss of Fuhai plastic packaging was called Zhang Shi. As soon as he saw Qin Lin, he said enthusiastically, “President Qin, thank you very much for choosing our Fuhai plastic packaging.”
“President Zhang, you’re too polite!” Qin Lin smiled and shook hands with the other party.
He could sense from the other party’s attitude that he had some status in Youcheng County.
“President Qin, this is the sample!” Zhang Shi immediately took out the sample and handed it to Qin Lin. “It has been treated and disinfected. There’s no problem with using it immediately.”
Qin Lin took the sample and looked at it. He was quite satisfied, so he said, “President Zhang, according to this quality, I’ll order 10,000 small, medium, and large cups first. However, I hope to get 3,000 tomorrow morning.”
Zhang Shi immediately said, “Alright, I’ll arrange for someone to work overtime immediately.”
Qin Lin nodded. “Then let’s sign the contract! The subsequent orders will depend on the usage of this batch first.”
“President Qin, President Hu, may I borrow your studio printer?” Zhang Shi said to Qin Ren and Hu Fei happily.
This deal could be considered a negotiation. He believed that as long as he maintained the quality and quantity, he would definitely be able to cooperate with Qinglin Villa for a long time.
Hardcover cups with sealed mold, straw, small, medium, and large cost 1.4 to 2 yuan.
The total price of 30,000 cups was 50,000 yuan. The deposit was 20%. The delivery was 10,000 yuan.
A milk tea shop with such an average cost would definitely not be able to afford it. Only those brand chains and scenic spots could afford it.
After signing the contract with Zhang Shi, Qin Lin drove away and returned to the villa.
As soon as he entered the villa, he saw Chen Dabei coming out of the backyard of the hall. He must have just finished watering the watermelon seedlings.
He called the man over and asked, “What’s the status of the watermelon seedlings?”
Chen Dabei immediately reported in surprise, “Boss, those watermelon seedlings have already begun to grow. They’re growing too fast.”
“It’s already in the growing period?” Qin Lin was surprised.
Although this Quality 2 seed of seedless watermelon said that the growth period was extremely short, wasn’t this growth speed too fast?
How long was this seed planted?
At this rate, it would become a watermelon in less than a month.
