Chapter 252 Three-day period
Li Qin ignored Yuan Zhi's thoughts and, after stating the second reason, paused briefly before speaking again.
"As for the third reason, it's that I actually have my own fixed and stable procurement channels:"
Every month, we can purchase at least several hundred kilograms of meat, and we also buy plenty of other products such as eggs and fish.
Therefore, when purchasing within the village, there's no need to lower prices and profit from the difference.
Li Qin was well aware that he had established procurement channels, a fact that most of the veteran employees in the procurement department already knew.
As time goes by, the new purchasing staff will soon find out as well.
Then there's no need to hide it.
There's nothing wrong with saying it openly and honestly.
In fact, all the reasons Li Qin gave were just to fool people.
Or to be more precise, it's used to cover up the real reason.
The reason he didn't try to negotiate prices when making purchases was simply because Li Qin had no shortage of money.
There is no shortage of supplies.
To be more precise, he has no shortage of regular supplies.
Yuan Zhi was unaware of these things.
At this moment, he truly realized that there were some similarities between his own situation and what Li Qin had just described.
In other words, he could directly use Li Qin's strategy.
Most importantly, Li Qin has proven through his actions that his practice of purchasing supplies at high prices is entirely feasible.
Putting everything else aside, the things mounted on the bicycle frame say it all.
"Over the next few days, I will show you around the villages near Beijing and also help you make connections so you won't be completely clueless."
However, how far you go in the future depends on yourself.
Li Qin finally spoke earnestly to Yuan Zhi.
So far, Yuan Zhi has a good impression of Li Qin.
In addition, Li Qin didn't care about the small amount of supplies he purchased from the village, so he didn't mind introducing these unimportant connections to Yuan Zhi.
Whether Yuan Zhi can maintain these connections in the future is not of much concern to Li Qin.
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, Yuan Zhi's face first lit up with joy, but then a hint of regret flashed across his face.
Wang Dawei had already told him about the channels Li Qin had in his possession.
And Li Qin himself just admitted it.
Li Qin's words, both in their implied and unspoken meaning, clearly indicated that the channels previously opened up in the village...
They would tell you everything without reservation.
However, Li Qin didn't mention the matter of the secret channels at all.
Not to mention anything else.
However, the look of disappointment on Yuan Zhi's face was fleeting.
He then sincerely thanked Li Qin, saying:
"Thank you, Brother Li!"
Yuan Zhi knew very well that if someone else had taken him to get acquainted with the work of a purchasing agent, at most they would have taught him how to carry out the purchasing work.
As for connections, it's simply impossible to entrust them to him.
Li Qin has already given him a lot; he cannot be greedy.
Li Qin did not refuse his thanks.
Just for the fact that he paved the way for Yuan Zhi, he deserved the other party's gratitude. "Alright, I've basically told you everything I needed to say. We still have plenty of time today, so let's try to visit two more villages later."
"By taking you through several shopping trips, you'll be able to grasp the ins and outs of it more quickly."
Compared to Qian's imparting of theoretical experience, Li Qin preferred to combine theory with practice, allowing Yuan Zhi to master the relevant skills through personal experience.
For the rest of the day, Li Qin took Yuan Zhi to two more villages.
In each village they visited, Li Qin would do the same thing he did in Huangjia Village: help Yuan Zhi introduce him to people.
After that, we went to the village to purchase supplies.
Actually, these things don't take very long. The reason they take most of the day is mainly because we're on the road.
When it was lunchtime, Li Qin and Yuan Zhi ate a simple meal at a villager's house.
Of course, Li Qin wasn't the kind of person who would freeload.
He not only gave the villagers money, but also tickets.
"Shall we stop here for today? If we don't head back soon, we'll have to travel at night, and we still have things in the car. It's not safe to travel at night."
Li Qin glanced at the sun, which was about to set, and then said to Yuan Zhi beside him.
Yuan Zhi naturally had no objection to his arrangements.
He nodded immediately.
If it were just Li Qin alone, there would naturally be no need to worry.
Even if they did encounter bandits, they would only end up being used as test subjects for Li Qin.
But now that Yuan Zhi is by his side, Li Qin can no longer do many things openly and legitimately.
This led to more taboos in their actions.
If Yuan Zhi were to see something he shouldn't, Li Qin would have no choice but to use a forgetting spell on him to avoid trouble.
Li Qin's mastery of the Forgetfulness Curse has become increasingly profound;
When deleting memories, the error rate decreases.
Yet it still exists.
Not to mention, being subjected to a forgetting spell could very likely affect the other person's memory.
After countless experiments by Li Qin, it has now been confirmed that this symptom will only occur if the Forgetfulness Spell is used repeatedly on the same person.
However, Yuan Zhi was not Li Qin's enemy, and Li Qin did not want to use him to test whether there was any possibility of unexpected events.
The best course of action is for Li Qin to be more mindful of his surroundings when he is with Yuan Zhi.
On the way back, Li Qin rode the bicycle in front, while Yuan Zhi sat on the back carrying a bunch of things.
"Today we've taken you to three villages, met a lot of people, and even participated in the purchasing ourselves. Think about it more later."
Tomorrow I'll take you to a few more villages, and I believe you'll be able to grasp the job of a purchasing agent by then."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhi's face first showed surprise, then delight.
Li Qin had already done so much today, and Yuan Zhi thought that after the day was over, Li Qin would stop bothering him and let him do the purchasing himself.
Unexpectedly, Li Qin was even willing to help him get familiar with the purchasing work.
I even plan to take him to more villages tomorrow.
If Li Qinquan follows today's pace, he will be representing the purchasing channels of several villages.
This is of great significance to a newcomer.
Yuan Zhi quickly thanked him in a deep voice:
"Thank you, Brother Li!"
Li Qin now holds a very high position in Yuan Zhi's heart.
The main reason was that Li Qin was just too good to him.
Yuan Zhi wasn't the kind of person to be ungrateful, and he naturally felt grateful to Li Qin.
After thinking for a moment, Li Qin spoke again:
"Since I promised the team leader I would mentor you, I will do my best to mentor you."
I will take you to the countryside to shop for three days in total. I believe you will be able to master the shopping skills in three days.
Three days later, you'll need to go and buy your own supplies.
Under normal circumstances, it takes at most one day for an experienced person to mentor a newcomer.
Moreover, it's mostly theoretical. Li Qin was able to teach Yuan Zhi for three days, and without holding anything back, so regardless of how their relationship might develop in the future.
Li Qin has at least done what he could with a clear conscience.
This will also give Wang Dawei an explanation.
