Ma Jian is a typical activist. Not even half an hour after Zhao Guoyang returned to the workshop, he brought Wang Cheng, the head of the procurement department, to come over.

Ma Jian, the deputy factory director, has always been in charge of procurement and sales. Wang Cheng was brought by Ma Jian. He just became a deputy section chief two years ago and can be regarded as half of Ma Jian's apprentice.

When he saw Zhao Guoyang, Ma Jian waved to him and said, "Guoyang, I'm leaving, the car is waiting outside. Now I'm going to Guangling City, and I can still come back in the afternoon!"

Zhao Guoyang responded, turned to explain to his colleagues, and hurriedly followed Ma Jian and Wang Cheng.

Sitting in the back row of the car, Zhao Guoyang looked at the procurement section chief in front of him while looking at the other side of Ma Jian's words.

Wang Cheng is not tall, has a round face, has a small parted head, his small eyes are squinting, and it seems that he can't open it. With a few head-up patterns, he looks older than his actual age.

Judging from his appearance, Wang Cheng should be a relatively smooth person. He respected Ma Jian very much along the way and followed his horse's lead.

Although Zhao Guoyang has not been in Hongda Machinery Factory for a long time, he still heard of Wang Cheng. It is rumored that he is brave and often takes kickbacks from the following manufacturers. I don’t know whether it is true or false.

In fact, it is very common for purchasing part of the business to take kickbacks.

Even in later generations, enterprises have strict rules and regulations and management methods, they cannot completely eliminate such gray transactions that are concealed by human relationships.

In Zhao Guoyang's opinion, this is actually not a big deal. As long as you can pay attention to the position and help the factory reduce the purchase price, don't just focus on filling your own pockets.

Although Zhao Guoyang had never done procurement in his previous life, he knew some of the unspoken rules.

Many times, the prices provided by the following manufacturers are very flexible. What you can finally get depends on the ability of the purchasing staff.

A competent purchasing personnel can keep the purchase price very low and close to their bottom line, so it is no big deal for him to get some kickbacks.

Halfway through the road, Ma Jian poked out half of his body, patted the seat and said, "Wang Cheng, have you been to Guangling's steel market many times? In terms of price, can you suppress it?"

"Director Ma, don't worry, I know all the big bosses in this steel market and supply them to our factory. As long as I speak, they will definitely give us a very favorable price." Wang Cheng turned his head and said confidently.

Hearing that he was so confident, Ma Jian nodded.

Wang Cheng was brought up by him, and he was half a teacher and half a friend, so his relationship was naturally extraordinary.

Over the years, although he knew that Wang Cheng's reputation was not very good, Ma Jian has never transferred him from the procurement department. After all, he still values ​​Wang Cheng's personal abilities very much.

When Wang Cheng and Ma Jian were talking, Zhao Guoyang noticed that the head of the procurement department glanced at him from time to time, as if he was a little vigilant.

After discovering this abnormality, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He is just the deputy section chief of the technical department, and he has nothing to do with him, the section chief of the procurement department, and he doesn't care about his messy matters, but why is he guarding against himself?

After thinking about it secretly, Zhao Guoyang didn't think of anything, and he gave up.

However, he had gradually concluded that Wang Cheng was a man who was suspicious and extremely cautious. It was not easy to catch such a person's ponytail.

The Aokang Steel Market in Guangling City covers an area of ​​over 100 acres, which is the largest steel market in central Jiangnan Province. The steel products are very complete, and even some very unpopular special steels can be found here.

With Wang Cheng, the old horse who knows the way, Ma Jian and Zhao Guoyang naturally don’t have to go to the wrong way. When they arrived at the destination, they headed straight to the target and came to a shop with a large storefront.

The shop owner is a local, with the surname Zhu, and is tall and big. Because he speaks loudly, he is nicknamed Shanpao.

Seeing Wang Cheng coming, Shanpao strode forward and smiled, "Secretary Wang, hello, you haven't been here for a while. Are you here today to take care of my business?"

"Boss Zhu, this is Director Ma of our factory. This is Section Chief Zhao. Today I am accompanying them to select materials. Whether to take care of them or not, our Director Ma has the final say." Wang Chengxian introduced.

"Ah, it turns out to be Director Ma, welcome!" Shan Pao nodded and shook hands with Ma Jian, then greeted Zhao Guoyang and dispersed a circle of cigarettes.

Wang Cheng asked with a smile: "Boss Zhu, if I remember correctly, do you have the QSTE380TM model steel here, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Shanpao nodded repeatedly.

"Secretary Wang, you have found the right place. If you want to buy QSTE380TM steel, there is really not much Aokang steel market. Apart from me, there is only Lao Xu in the innermost place."

When he heard that he had "QSTE380TM" here, Ma Jian nodded to Zhao Guoyang and said, "Guoyang, do you want to go in and check out the materials? If you need to get more, it doesn't matter, and it won't be used in the future."

Zhao Guoyang nodded and asked, "Boss Zhu, what is the specification of the QSTE380TM steel in your store? Angle steel or channel steel, what is the thickness, square pipe or round pipe? How much is the price per ton?"

As soon as Zhao Guoyang asked so carefully, Shanpao knew that he had met an expert.

He quickly smiled and replied: "Secretary Zhao, our QSTE380TM steel is all channel steel, with a thickness of 2 mm, and there are two types of tubes with a diameter of 25 mm and a diameter of 20 mm."

After hearing the specifications he mentioned, Zhao Guoyang's eyes lit up. The main columns and bent pipes of the C100 frame are all round pipes with diameters of 25 mm. The materials in this store are just suitable.

"Then please take a 25mm sample first and take a look!" Zhao Guoyang pointed to the shelves and said.

"No problem! This product is inside. You three sit here and wait, and I'll get it now." Shanpao nodded repeatedly and said.

After saying that, Shan Cannon turned around and hurried into the warehouse inside, and soon came out with a half-meter-long round steel pipe: "Then, Section Chief Zhao, how about this, is it okay?"

Zhao Guoyang took the steel pipe and looked carefully. He found that the quality looked good, not like it would be oxidized after being placed for a long time.

Zhao Guoyang then nodded to Ma Jian and Wang Cheng, indicating that the material could be used.

After understanding Zhao Guoyang's expression, Ma Jian winked at Wang Cheng and handed him the matter of negotiating the price.

After Wang Cheng received the order, he cleared his throat and said, "Boss Zhu, we have had more than once dealing with each other. I just said straight, we can use this steel in the factory, so you can offer a price."

"Hehe, you Section Chief Wang has spoken. What else can you say? Besides, Director Ma is here, I will definitely give you the lowest price!" Shanpao's face suddenly appeared with a hint of joy when he heard Wang Cheng's words.

"If this is the case, we will calculate it at 4,500 yuan per ton. This is the cost price, and there is no slightest!" Shanpao said seriously.

Wang Cheng pretended to bargain with Shan Cannon, and finally bought 100 kilograms at a price of 4,300 yuan per ton.
Chapter completed!
