Chapter 289: Opening an order
Jiang Xia looked at the old man and smiled and said, "Old man, yes, there is only a discount that can only be obtained by placing an order now, and this discount can be obtained by ordering a cargo ship with a total of more than 27,000 tons. Other ship discounts are different."
The old man also understands that different ships have different prices. Some small boats don’t need to use 50,000 US dollars, so it is impossible to be 50,000 yuan cheaper.
He smiled and said, "I know this. I also want to order a freighter of more than 10,000 tons. Can a bulk freighter be made with a 30,000 tons?"
Jiang Xia smiled: "Yes! If you want to order, you can order as soon as possible, because our shipyard has received a lot of orders, ordering early to schedule production, collecting boats early, and making money early. Time is money. If you can collect boats one month earlier, you may have made half of the money you bought the boat."
Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, the ocean-going ship goes to sea for more than a month, and the freight is very high.
A month earlier, I will definitely earn more than 50,000 US dollars.
The old man also knew this truth: "If I order a ship today, when will I be able to hand over the ship?"
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Our shipyard business is good, and the order has been scheduled for a year. However, you are the first customer of our shipyard at the Guangzhou Fair. We can deliver the ship three months in advance, and the ship is delivered at the same time as the ship booked by Mr. Jill."
The old man has been speaking English to Jiang Xia, and another translator has always translated the conversation between Jiang Xia and Mr. Mai An to Director Zhou.
Director Zhou said at this time, "You can deliver the ship as early as June next year."
Now there is an extra production line, and in fact, April and May are almost the same, but this cannot be said, so you have to leave some time just in case.
After hearing this, Jiang Xia looked at Director Zhou and asked, "Can all the ships ordered today be delivered in June next year?"
She glanced at Director Zhou deeply.
Director Zhou understood: "Only the fifteen ships ordered in the front can be delivered half a year in advance. Those ordered in the back will be arranged in the order."
Jiang Xia smiled and told the old man about Director Zhou’s words: “Old man, our Director Zhou said that the delivery time can be half a year in advance! But only fifteen ships can be delivered half a year in advance.”
Delivery time is half a year ahead of schedule! That''s really the best!
The old man immediately said, "I order five ships! Order now!"
"Okay! I''ll ask someone to open an order for the old man."
Jiang Xia said to Director Zhou: "Director, this old man wants to order five 30,000-ton bulk cargo ships, so you can arrange someone to issue an order for him."
Director Zhou immediately found someone to take the old man to issue an order.
Deliver the ship half a year in advance? How much money can a boat make when going to sea in half a year? Those foreigners who were still watching wanted to wait for Mahone to tell the price, but now they can''t wait. They all spoke out to grab the quota: "Xia, if the ship can be delivered in June next year, I want to order two ships too! What good start discount do you give me? It''s 50,000 US dollars cheaper?"
"Xia, I want to order a drilling platform. Can I also submit it half a year in advance? Is there a discount?"
"Summer, I want to order a ship, I want to order one."
"Xia, I''ll order three ships..."
…
Mai An is a businessman, and every minute is money for businessmen.
Why didn’t he order a ship in Country M this time? It is because the M country shipyard has too many orders and it will take a year and a half to deliver the ship.
Now we can deliver the ship in June next year, which is one year earlier than booking a ship in Country M.
Now he rents a boat every month.
Time is money. In a year, you can not only save a lot of rent, but also make money from eight ships together, and you can make money back on one ship.
He immediately said, "Xia, I was the first one to discuss the order of a ship with you. I am the first customer. I want to order eight ships, you have to deliver the ship to me in June next year, and there is a discount of 50,000 US dollars." Jiang Xia nodded: "I know, it was indeed the first one Mr. Maien who wanted to order a ship just now. You are Jill''s friend, so I will definitely give you a discount of 50,000 US dollars."
"Xia, we all came with Jill and ordered the boat together, and the price was also 50,000 US dollars?"
"Summer, I want to order a drilling lifting platform. What are the discounts?"
Jill and John also helped: "Xia, they are all my friends. Can they deliver the ship they ordered together? Give the same discount! We are the first customer to arrive, right?"
"Xia, there is a word in your Chinese country called ''benefit one and the other'', and you can''t benevolent one and the other!"
Everyone rushed to speak.
Jiang Xia signaled everyone to calm down and came one by one, "I know, I try to tell the factory manager that I will give you a discount of 50,000 US dollars, but the delivery time is only fifteen ships that can be half a year ahead of schedule. Others may not be necessary, but I also try to make the ship delivery as early as possible. You must believe in the speed of our Chinese country! The speed of our Chinese people''s services has always been amazing! I wonder if you have heard that our first 10,000-ton cargo ship in China was built in less than two months, which was more than 20 years ago."
Jiang Xia knew that the shipyard had booked the equipment in advance and prepared in advance to welcome the scion meeting, so more than 15 ships could be delivered half a year in advance.
However, these foreign merchants should not order as many as fifteen cargo ships.
An hour later, Jiang Xia signed a total of US$35.5 million for the shipyard, and the shipyard became the fastest unit to sign tens of millions of orders at the Gap Exchange!
Jiang Xia also received a commission of 35,500 US dollars.
Another translator in the shipyard earns a salary of 100 yuan a day. She also heard that Jiang Xia doesn’t need a salary and only needs a commission.
It turns out that she still thinks it is unreliable because the boat is not so easy to sell.
Now she silently calculated in her heart, and then she became sour!
If I had known that she would not want a salary, she would have to receive a commission.
Director Zhou calculated and said to Jiang Xia, "No wonder you don''t need a salary!"
Jiang Xia smiled: "Director Zhou is reluctant to let it go?"
Zhou Chang stared at him: "How could it be! I am willing to sign an order of 100 million yuan!"
Director Zhou was very happy with the commission given to Jiang Xia!
Is it more than 35,500 US dollars? many!
But each ship sold by Jiang Xia is 50,000 US dollars more expensive than their original price!
In other words, they not only made a little less money when giving Jiangxia commission, but also made a lot more money.
How could you be reluctant to let it go?
Jiang Xia walked over and returned the watch to Jill, thanked him, and handed the watch to Zhou Chenglei.
After booking the boat, Jill and his friends had to go to other booths to check out. Jill asked Jiangxia to have dinner together in the evening.
Jiang Xia responded with a smile.
At this time, the old man who had just booked the boat also asked Jiangxia for dinner, thanking the couple for helping at the train station last time.
Jiang Xia had just agreed to Jier and the others, so she made an appointment with the old man tomorrow night.
When the translator saw Jiang Xia and Jier, the old man was so familiar, he was no longer so sad. It turned out that only regular customers dared to ask for commissions and not pay for wages.
That’s right! Is it so easy for a ship to get an order?
Sorry, I came up to ask for a leave. The update today (Saturday, October 26) will be a little late, and it may be updated at night. I am not satisfied with the writing, so I need to push and rewrite it.
