You've been reborn and you're going to go farm?

"Good morning, Mr. Jiang!"

"I saw on the news that it was raining quite heavily where you are. How are things in the fields?"

Jiang Lin glanced at the drizzling rain outside and smiled: "Is President Zhao doubting our management capabilities?"

"Of course I've witnessed Boss Jiang's ability to plan ahead." Zhao Yu smiled slightly, "Didn't he teach me a lesson yesterday?" "After all, the weather is beyond our control. I'm just worried that if this rain continues for several days, it will have too much of an impact."

She paused briefly: "As you know, the response to Qingshan watermelons at our store is excellent."

"Once a customer's palate becomes picky, it's not easy to satisfy them."

"I also plan to do a marketing campaign later to further expand our influence."

Jiang Lin understood: "Then I suggest that President Zhao wait a while longer. After a few days of rain, a batch of goods of uncertain quality will inevitably appear on the market."

"To ensure quality, the new batch of Qingshan watermelons will not be available on the market immediately; it will take at least seven or eight days."

Zhao Yu cut to the chase: "How much inventory do you have left in your cold storage in the north of the city?"

"I can give you 30,000 jin," Jiang Lin said directly without hiding anything. "There's a portion left for the university town."

"Thirty thousand catties..." There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Zhao Yu had several purposes for making this call, one of which was to find out about Jiang Lin's subsequent supply capacity.

Secondly, she wanted to use Jiang Lin to establish rules within the company!

Thirty thousand catties is enough!

"Boss Jiang!" she spoke again, her tone much more sincere. "Now that we've come this far, I think we can discuss the future cooperation in more detail."

"I've already investigated the matter of the warehouse."

"I won't lie to you, the reason I asked you for an emergency restock yesterday was because an internal violation of regulations led to a disruption in the store's supply."

She proactively exposed her shortcomings, directly laying out the management failures of her Youguohui company.

"Yesterday you didn't hesitate to arrange for the goods to be delivered to my shop, bypassing our mess. You did me a huge favor!"

"I've also seen through Boss Jiang's true character!"

"I, Zhao Yu, will remember this kindness!"

"I'm not a bad person either!"

"My judgment is the same as yours; after this rain, there will definitely be a market rally."

"Alright, starting with these 30,000 jin of watermelons, Youguohui will purchase them from you at three yuan per jin, with a minimum total of 200,000 jin. Of course, if you don't have any in your field, that's another story."

"But! I have two conditions!"

"Please go ahead, Mr. Zhao."

"First: According to the previous contract, this season's Qingshan watermelons, besides your university town base, can only be supplied to Youguohui. The quality of the watermelons must be the same as before, with a sweetness level of over 12%. All data must be accurate and transparent, and we are open to random inspections!"

"Secondly: I hope that these 30,000 jin, and subsequent shipments, will all be delivered directly to stores. But when to deliver, which store to deliver, and how much to deliver will be determined by me, and your people will be responsible for executing the delivery."

"I'll prepay 50% for every watermelon that enters the warehouse!"

Jiang Lin understood; Zhao Yu was trying to bypass her own unruly warehouse.

We must firmly grasp the most valuable supply chain for blockbuster products in our own hands.

Then, she used his goods and his people to "set rules" for those who didn't follow the rules within her organization.

She cuts off the supply to any place that doesn't obey her orders.

At 3 yuan per kilogram, he couldn't refuse that price.

but……

Jiang Lin hesitated for a moment: "Mr. Zhao, you can rest assured about the quality of the watermelons. If the quality control of Qingshan watermelons is not up to standard, I will not do this business."

"But I think this second point needs to be changed."

"My people can handle the delivery for you, but you need to inform me at least twelve hours in advance."

"I believe that twelve hours is enough time for Mr. Zhao to make a good assessment of each store and release the supply and demand information."

He chuckled and said, "Otherwise, it would mean my people would have to be in the warehouse 24/7 serving General Manager Zhao!"

"This cost is not low..."

Zhao Yu answered almost without hesitation: "Okay!"

What she wants is to use "direct control" to cut off the power of certain people inside to interfere!

As for how far in advance, that's a detail that can be controlled.

"I'll draft the contract for you later. Once you've reviewed it and everything's fine, the advance payment will be credited to your account simultaneously!" Zhao Yu said decisively. "When you return to Rongcheng, I'd like to personally visit your warehouse!"

"Haha, Mr. Zhao, you're so generous! You're welcome to visit anytime!"

Zhao Yu took a deep breath: "Cooperation leads to a win-win situation!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lin quickly called for help: "Uncle Chen!"

Hearing Jiang Lin's voice, Chen Jinzhong beamed, "Oh, my little money god, what's up?"

Jiang Lin laughed and said, "Our urgent job yesterday has turned into a long-running delivery."

Jiang Lin considered for a moment and then explained the situation in more detail: "Here's the thing, I've reached a long-term cooperation agreement with Youguohui. For the entire month-long watermelon season, they want to entrust a trusted trucking company to deliver their Qingshan watermelons."

"Send delivery requests 12 hours in advance, and we'll ship directly from my current warehouse to each store."

"The work is the same as yesterday, calculated by the trip."

"Then there's the warehouse; we need to extend the timeframe in our agreement as well."

Chen Jinzhong agreed almost without hesitation, his tone more earnest: "Boss Jiang, are you going to build a regular army?"

For transporters like them, the biggest fear is unstable work. So, the attraction of a job that covers the entire sales season, with work available almost every day and long-term cooperation is self-evident.

"We're not exactly a regular army, we just want to do things steadily," Jiang Lin said. "Having worked with Uncle Chen so many times, I think your people are all pretty good and reliable!"

"Hey, isn't that because you, Boss Jiang, followed the rules?"

"Everyone wants to do business with you."

"That's easy, I'll arrange it right away!"

Jiang Lin hung up the phone, picked up a notebook, and began to redesign the functions of the traceability system.

Currently, there's basically no need to add any more functions to the field, because adding more would require additional equipment, which would cost money.

What he wants to improve is the warehouse's inbound and outbound process!

When did it enter the warehouse, and when did it leave the warehouse?

It doesn't need to be too detailed; one main function is enough. The warehousing operation is also relatively simple: select multiple items according to the serial number of the goods delivered to the warehouse, and add them with one click.

For warehouse management, it can be roughly divided into areas.

Ideally, data should be entered into the warehouse via barcode scanning using a barcode scanner.

But he didn't have that many people, nor that much time.

Currently, all system functions are being implemented in a basic, basic version to address practical problems.

With the warehouse module, once Zhao Yu has permission to add the stores to be delivered to, she can not only view the inventory in real time, but also issue shipping instructions with just a few clicks on the page.

Jiang Lin looked at the three pages on the laptop. The core functions were just three pages: inbound, inventory, and outbound.

"Hmm, not too complicated, and it adds another piece of data to the traceability information..."

"If Old Gu were to write this, he'd probably kill me..."

"Fine, fine, he can share the front-end work, I'll handle the back-end..."
