Chapter 48: The Client Abused Me Thousands of Times (Please Read More)
Just as the two were on their way back, Zhang Qiyuan's cell phone vibrated.
Zhang Qiyuan took it out and saw that it was a voice call from Xu Jie. He quickly clicked to answer it.
"Xiao Zhang, did you know that the house in Xincheng Donglu has been signed?" Xu Jie said in an aggressive tone.
"I know, I just signed it." Zhang Qiyuan said lightly.
"Didn't I ask you to negotiate the price? Why didn't you tell me when others have signed the contract?" Xu Jie asked.
Zhang Qiyuan was speechless. He guessed that the Shell agency that Xu Jie had found before saw that the house had been signed and told him about it. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Xu Jie to know about it right after they signed the contract.
"Mr. Xu, actually a customer had already paid a deposit for this house yesterday. Signing the contract today was just a formality. I called you at that time and the price was 280 million. The owner cooperated with you to save personal tax, but you insisted on negotiating it to 270 million. I had no choice. In the end, the customer raised the price to 281 million and signed the contract." Zhang Qiyuan said.
"Well...you didn't say that the client offered 280 million. If you said someone wanted to sign, I could also increase the price to this." Xu Jie said stubbornly.
Zhang Qiyuan sneered in his heart. Even if he said this, Xu Jie would think he was trying to trick him.
"Mr. Xu, it's too late to say this now. After all, the house has been sold. I will help you find other houses later." Zhang Qiyuan said perfunctorily.
"Other properties? Are there other properties in this building and on this floor? I've looked at other properties. I've been looking for properties for almost half a year, and this is the one I like."
Xu Jie was filled with regret. When he first saw this house on Zhang Qiyuan's Xiaohongshu, he was overjoyed. This house completely met all his requirements. It was just that when he sold the house in the second half of last year, the customer cut his price with a sword, so he wanted to bargain a little more this time. Moreover, the Shell agent who helped him sell the house before also told him that it was not a good idea to negotiate the price right after the owner was put up for sale, as the owner would think that he had sold the house too cheaply. That's why he didn't take it seriously when Zhang Qiyuan called him.
Unexpectedly, the house was sold in just one or two days, and the price was much higher than the price Zhang Qiyuan quoted him?
Now that you know the house is good, what were you doing before?
Zhang Qiyuan complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it to his face. After all, Xu Jie was still a potential customer for buying a house, and it would not be good to make things too awkward.
"Mr. Xu, other agents should have told you that they can help you negotiate more, but I know this house best. The owner is my sister. If you had agreed, my sister would have been willing to sign with me. After taking into account the agency fee we paid you, plus a percentage point of tax, and the 270 yuan added by the client, you can sign it for yuan less than that client. But your price of million is a bit too outrageous, so my sister took the deposit on the same day. Signing the contract today is just a formality."
Although you can't scold this customer, you can still annoy him a little and let him know that there is a customer who is willing to spend an extra 50,000 yuan to buy the house he likes.
Hearing this, Xu Jie regretted it even more.
"But Mr. Xu, there's nothing we can do even if the house is sold. I will help you find a house in the same building, on the same floor, and with the same layout. Maybe after a while, the house price will come down, and you can buy one for 270 million?" Zhang Qiyuan comforted him.
No matter how bad this customer is, he is still a customer. Even if a customer abuses me a thousand times, I will still treat him like my first love.
Make money, not shabby.
Zhang Qiyuan's comfort made Xu Jie feel much more comfortable. After thinking about it carefully, what Xiao Zhang said made sense. After a while, the price of the house might go down.
"Okay, Xiao Zhang, if you find a good house later, just tell me. The one with a parking space is 270 million. Without a parking space, I can only offer 260 million." Xu Jie said politely.
"Mmm Good."
Zhang Qiyuan hung up the phone perfunctorily, somewhat speechless. If Sister Zhu wanted to buy a house like that for 260 million, then the housing prices in the entire Seoul New District would probably have to drop a lot by then.
"Your client?" Xia Tong asked.
Zhang Qiyuan nodded and said, "Yes, I called him last night and told him it would be 280 million to help him save on taxes and agency fees, but he insisted on 270 million. Now that the house is sold, he regrets it."
"There are too many customers like this. When you ask them to buy, they can't make up their minds. They regret it after the other party sells the house. It's okay. When a good house comes out on the east slope of the new city, I'll tell you." Xia Tong said.
"Row!"
On his way back, Zhang Qiyuan subconsciously walked towards his house. As soon as he entered the door of the unit, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have moved to the dormitory. He was filled with emotion for a moment.
Before he sold the house, he was anxious every day, and after he sold it, he felt a little reluctant.
It's normal for people to be a little bit pretentious. After returning to the dormitory, there were not many people in the living room, so Zhang Qiyuan didn't care and went straight back to his room.
……
"Hey, Gambler Fu, why are you here?"
In the morning, when Huang Yi saw Fu Qiang coming to the company, he asked in surprise.
Zhang Qiyuan looked up and immediately understood that it must be Hu Zhiwen who called him.
"Xiong Wei, Zhiwen, Dong Hui, the three of you come with me to the tea room." Fu Qiang shouted, and then went upstairs.
Hu Zhiwen followed him calmly. Xiong Wei and Dong Hui were a little puzzled, but they followed him anyway.
"Come on, come on, sit for a while." Fu Qiang started to boil water to make tea.
"Gambler Fu, is there anything wrong?" Xiong Wei frowned.
He knew that Fu Qiang basically didn't care about the company's affairs, but once he showed up, there must be something important, otherwise he wouldn't come to the company so early.
"Come on, have a smoke and some betel nuts." Fu Qiang took out a bag of betel nuts and distributed cigarettes to the two of them.
At this moment, Xiong Wei became even more nervous, and even stopped eating his favorite betel nut. He hurriedly said, "Gambler Fu, just tell me what you want to say."
"cough!"
Fu Qiang cleared his throat, glanced at Hu Zhiwen, and said to Xiong Wei and Dong Hui, "It's like this. Because Zhiwen came here, the company rented a new dormitory. The rent of the two dormitories plus the store rent is 15,000 yuan a month. Add to that the store's water, electricity, property fees and other miscellaneous expenses, plus Xu Piaoping's 5,000 yuan salary, and the monthly expenses are close to 25,000 yuan."
"Although our performance this month is not bad, we only made two rental orders last month. The market will get worse as time goes by, so we have to consider saving money."
Xiong Wei's face changed: "Fu Qiang, what do you mean?"
He spoke in an aggressive tone and began to call Fu Qiang by his name.
"It's impossible to save on rent, store rent, water and electricity bills, property fees, etc. Do you mean to fire Piaopiao?"
"I'm doing this for the company's sake. Think about it, what does Xu Piaoping do in the store every day? She does nothing but sits at her workstation every day. And five thousand yuan a month, isn't that a bit too much?" Fu Qiang picked up the kettle and started to heat the cups.
"Piaopiao was recruited by me. She is also a veteran of our company. I can't fire her just like that." Xiong Wei said firmly.
Not to mention that Xu Piaoping was his man, let alone if Xu Piaoping was fired, who would he ask to reimburse for his meals in the future? Would the reimbursement in the past be dug up?
"I also feel that Xu Piaoping is completely useless in the company and cannot bring any benefits to the company. We won't fire her directly. I have two options for her. Either take a pay cut and accept 3,500 a month, or become an agent and get commissions based on performance like Wang Yong and others." Hu Zhiwen spoke at this time.
Xiong Wei glared at Hu Zhiwen. He knew that this matter was definitely done by Hu Zhiwen. With Fu Qiang's personality, he generally would not care about this matter.
"Dong Hui, please say something. Piaopiao is a veteran of our company. Even if she has no merits, she has worked hard." Xiong Wei had no choice but to count on Dong Hui.
Dong Hui glanced at Xiong Wei and said slowly, "I think what Dushen Fu said makes sense. Why don't you go and ask Piaopiao if she is willing to take a pay cut and change agents?"
Before Hu Zhiwen came, Xiong Wei disliked him in various ways. He had been annoyed with Xiong Wei for a long time, but he didn't like to be in charge of things, so he didn't bother with Xiong Wei. It just so happened that Hu Zhiwen was coming, so he transferred 30% of his shares to Hu Zhiwen without thinking, just to let Hu Zhiwen deal with Xiong Wei.
Hearing this, Xiong Wei raised his head and saw that the three people were looking at him quietly. He immediately understood that the three people were joining forces to force the emperor to abdicate.
