Chapter 428: A Happy Ending
Chapter 428: Chapter 428: A Happy Ending
Zhou Xiangqian of course understood what Mei Yiliang meant, and although he was unhappy, he dared not be as arrogant as he had been at the door, and kept a light smile on his face, \'Sorry to trouble you!\'
Boss Yao had originally come with a trial mindset, but now that he saw Zhou Xiangqian\'s attitude, he immediately knew that there was a chance.
It seems that the wicked still need to be tempered with. Not to mention anything else, after working together for such a long time, this time Zhou Xiangqian\'s excuse for not paying was a bit disappointing. He felt like he had re-evaluated him, and he had made up his mind that in the future, when doing business with him, he would have to be more careful.
After the three parties had taken their seats, Zhang Bixing took the opportunity while Lawyer Mao was giving his opinion to go over to the window to greet Mei Yiliang and Director Chang. He accompanied them for a while, chatting and expressing his apologies. After all, this whole situation was caused by his work mistakes and inadequate management.
Mei Yiliang comforted him, \'It\'s fine, the main responsibility is not yours.\'
Even Director Chang said, \'Yes, there are bound to be oversights in work, especially in your line of work. Just learn from your mistakes.\'
Over there, after listening to Lawyer Mao\'s proposal, Zhou Xiangqian immediately complained, \'Although we are a small company, we still have two other shareholders. Originally, we could deduct 17 points, but now you are only offering 5 points, which is a difference of tens of thousands of yuan. Even if I want to agree, how can I make that decision?\'
However, he was mainly saying this to Director Chang behind him. He had just met Mei Yiliang, so he didn\'t need to consider whether to give him face. Director Chang, on the other hand, didn\'t need to consider it at all, and he definitely had to give him face.
Lawyer Mao smiled and said, \'As far as I know, your company\'s input tax is always more than output tax for the current period. Even if you don\'t have this tax stamp, it won\'t have a big impact. The price that Boss Yao gave you was not very profitable to begin with, and he agreed to reduce it by another 5%. He really is very sincere. You have been working together for such a long time and have always been quite happy with the cooperation. It would really be a pity if this unexpected incident affected the follow-up cooperation, don\'t you think so, Mr. Zhou?\'
\'There is no such thing. How can it not affect you when the tax stamp that can be deducted for tax purposes is so much less?\' He lowered his voice because he knew that Director Chang over there might be listening.
Sure enough, Director Chang over there immediately added in a low voice, \'Mr. Zhou, last year, because your income was greater than your expenses, you didn\'t pay taxes for at least half the year, and this year you only paid for one month,\'
\'Yes, Director Chang, but this time we really ran short, we issued too many invoices,\' Zhou Xiangqian explained with a smile as he turned his head.
\'Yes, I know, Lao Zhou, your company often issues invoices in a concentrated manner for several months, and the business is not small, it\'s really not bad.\'
Hearing Director Chang say this, Zhou Xiangqian dared not say another word. They could not hide the fact that they were issuing invoices on behalf of others from the Inspection Bureau. \'It\'s hard to say for sure in business. Isn\'t it just a coincidence sometimes? Director Chang, you talk to General Manager Mei, and we\'ll discuss it some more,\'
he said directly to Boss Yao without asking Lawyer Mao, \'I really can\'t give you five points, let\'s make it seven. If you agree, we\'ll make the payment first thing tomorrow morning.\'
Boss Yao didn\'t expect that Jiasheng\'s connections were so strong. Zhou Xiangqian had originally been dead set on seeing the invoice before making the payment, but he didn\'t expect that once he saw that Director Chang was present, he would relent so easily.
\'Since everyone is being so accommodating, I\'ll be happy to let it be 6 points. You know the cost, so at least don\'t let me lose too much, okay Boss Zhou?\'
Of course, Zhou Xiangqian wasn\'t very happy about it, but listening to Director Chang chatting and laughing with Mei Yiliang over there, it was so harmonious that he had no choice but to agree.
\'It\'s rare to have Director Chang and President Mei here today, so I\'ll take the liberty of making a decision. Six points is six points. We\'ll make the money back later. You and I have been friends for so many years, right?\'
Zhou Xiangqian, who feels like he is bleeding profusely, of course has to seize the opportunity to buy well at this time. \'Lao Yao, you also know me, I am very pragmatic. If it really didn\'t affect me, I would have already made the decision to give you the money and then restock. As you know, business is now booming, and there is not much stock in the warehouse.\'
\'Yes, thank you very much, Mr. Zhou, for your understanding. There is no problem with the goods. As soon as you place an order, I will immediately arrange for the factory to prepare them,\'
The happiest person right now is Boss Yao. Although Zhou Xiangqian just conceded with a happy heart, he knows that if Jiasheng hadn\'t intervened, he might really have to reissue tax invoices.
He now understands that his previous threats against Jiasheng were really a bit excessive.
In fact, last night he called a lawyer in the city for advice, and this morning he went to see the lawyer in person. The lawyer made it very clear that in a situation like this, no matter where you take the case, the logistics company would not be held liable. They have done their best by offering to pay for the replacement of the tax stamp.
Boss Yao also understands that the main responsibility still lies with himself. For the sake of convenience and to save money, he put the hundreds of thousands of tax stamps in the goods without telling the logistics company.
To be able to resolve this matter in this way, I really have to thank Jiasheng for being so righteous. He said with a smile, \'Can everyone do me the honour of letting me treat you to dinner tonight?\'
Mei Yiliang said with a smile, "We\'re already in the provincial capital, so of course I\'ll treat. When we have the chance to go to Jinghu, I\'ll let you, Mr Yao, do the spending.\'
\'Sorry, I have a meeting this evening, I really can\'t make it," Director Chang took his handbag and said he was leaving. \'Mr Mei, give my regards to Mr Jin,\'
\'Of course. Director Chang, work is important. I\'ll see you out,\'
The dinner that night was a success for both the host and the guest. Zhou Xiangqian really did start thinking about the group\'s procurement of electromechanical products. Mei Yiliang readily agreed to it. After all, it would be through a bidding process, and there was nothing wrong with having one more participant.
Moreover, everyone was a businessman. On the surface, it looked like Zhou Xiangqian had made the biggest concession, and it was not good to make him feel that Jiasheng was looking for someone to pressure him.
On the surface, it didn\'t seem like Zhou Xiangqian and Yao Weidong\'s friendship had been affected by this incident. They acted like good friends during the dinner!
However, after Zhou Xiangqian was picked up by his son in a Camry, Yao Weidong finally showed some emotions.
It\'s true that even though the incident started because of him, he had felt that the relationship was good and the cooperation was also going smoothly, so it really hurt to see someone who was so unfeeling and unaccommodating.
Zhang Bixing took him to the nearby Yijia Hotel – this was the sixth Yijia in the provincial capital. Yao Weidong took his hand and said, \'Mr. Zhang, I\'m really sorry about what happened before! I\'m a rough man with little education, impulsive and unable to speak well. But I know that a company like Jiasheng, which takes responsibility, is the one that will have great development. Don\'t worry, I\'ll go back and help you promote it. There\'s no problem at all if Jiasheng has the goods.
And, you must take this back, I can\'t accept it under any circumstances,\'
He took out the envelope containing the compensation of 500 yuan that Lawyer Mao had given him during the day and stuffed it into Zhang Bixing\'s body.
How would Zhang Bixing want this? He had spent a lot of effort to invite Director Chang out, just to be thorough, and the compensation of 500 yuan was also something that had to be given.
...
It was equivalent to relying on Jinling to use some connections again, and the matter was finally resolved smoothly, which could also be described as a happy ending for everyone. Even Zhou Xiangqian was very satisfied, which was equivalent to him legally issuing the extra tax stamps of more than 200,000 yuan to someone else on behalf of him at a 6% discount.
The only one who was sad was Zhang Bixing.
It was also put into the system. Originally, the logistics company, which was managed meticulously, had let Jinling take the people from the headquarters and the software company to reorganise it for several days, and even the newly formed supervision and audit department was involved.
Of course, this time, no one was held responsible. Everyone worked together to help the logistics company re-organise the workflow several times and optimise it once again, so as to prevent similar incidents and other loopholes from occurring in the future.
However, before leaving, Jinling also gave him an indicator: the logistics company\'s missing package rate must be controlled to less than 1%.
1%, such a goal is really not simple for a logistics company that receives tens of thousands of packages per day. However, he had no second thoughts. In order to satisfactorily resolve the previous matter, even the president and vice president personally stepped in, so now he could only work even harder.
