Chapter 64: Exposed?
Peng Yong stood outside the station, with five or six cigarette butts already lying at his feet.
He was nervous!
Today is the 30th, and in one more day, October will be over.
If he can't meet the performance targets in this short period of time, his job as store manager will be over...
In the year since Yijingyuan store opened, its performance has always been at the bottom of Liangbei District. If it were to close down for accounting purposes, it would most likely close down!
Moreover, only they know their own situation. At this moment, it's unrealistic to expect to close a deal with these inexperienced agents in their own stores.
So when Chen Yuanzhou took his clients to see the townhouses, although he didn't go with them, he couldn't sit still at all and kept smoking at the door, waiting...
Just as he finished another cigarette and was about to light another one, he saw Chen Yuanzhou coming out with his clients in the distance.
"Xiao Chen!" he shouted, rushing over to greet him, panting, "How is it? The client..."
Chen Yuanzhou smiled and said, "Old Peng, you should quickly prepare a letter of intent..."
"!!!"
Peng Yong was so excited he almost jumped up: "490 million? It's a deal?"
"Go quickly!" Chen Yuanzhou's two words put Peng Yong's mind at ease.
He quickly ran back to the store to prepare. Although he was covered in sweat, he was very satisfied with his trip.
The store manager's position is secure!
When Chen Yuanzhou brought the client to the store, he acted like Chen Yuanzhou's assistant, busying himself with everything until he helped Chen Yuanzhou see the client into the car. Only then did he have a moment to himself, take a glass of water into the meeting room, and pick up the agreement on the table to read it…
"No way, Xiao Chen!" His first glance was at the service fee, but then he saw "25000" written on it: "A house worth 4.9 million, and you're only charging 20,000?"
"Isn't it a little too low?"
"Even if you don't charge the standard consulting fee of 98,000, shouldn't you at least charge the normal fee of 50,000?"
Peng Yong spoke with obvious displeasure.
Chen Yuanzhou glanced at him, scoffed, and said, "What's it to you?"
Peng Yong's face immediately darkened!
However, he then realized that this was Chen Yuanzhou's order, and no matter how much service fee he charged, he would have to pay him in the end, so it really had nothing to do with him.
"You young man..." Peng Yong said helplessly, "Can't you speak a little more politely? I'm the store manager, for goodness' sake!"
"Just tell me whether the performance targets have been met?" Chen Yuanzhou retorted.
Peng Yong was taken aback, then quickly began to calculate…
The previous two orders already generated 37500 in revenue. Adding this order's 25000, the total is 62500. Combined with their original 9+, their total revenue has just exceeded 15!
"This is just a letter of intent, it hasn't been formally signed yet, so it doesn't count as a performance record," Peng Yong said, forcing himself to speak.
This is his only excuse right now; otherwise, once he meets his sales target, he'll lose 2 to Chen Yuanzhou…
That's equivalent to a quarter's salary for him!
"Hehe~" Chen Yuanzhou was not surprised by his reaction at all, and teased, "Transferring subscriptions is no problem of course, I'm just afraid you won't be able to afford to lose."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Peng Yong retorted, unconvinced. "I'm a store manager, after all. Do you think I'd renege on my debts with a mere agent like you?"
Chen Yuanzhou stroked his chin, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Then go and get 2 yuan now. I'll give it to you directly after I transfer the order."
Peng Yong: "?"
"What do you mean?"
Chen Yuanzhou said seriously, "I'm afraid you'll renege on the payment! The landlord is already on his way. If I don't see the money, I won't put this order under your store's name."
Peng Yong's face darkened even more!
He originally thought that even if he really lost 20,000 yuan to Chen Yuanzhou, he wouldn't pay it immediately. He would find some excuse to delay for a month or two and pay it in installments.
After all, it's just a bet; they can't possibly charge you interest, can they?
Unfortunately, he underestimated Chen Yuanzhou's cunning. Now that he was only 25000 short of meeting his sales target, Chen Yuanzhou was using that to threaten him.
"How about it?" Chen Yuanzhou said mockingly, crossing his legs. "You're a store manager, you can't possibly not even come up with 20,000 yuan, can you?"
Peng Yong: "..."
"You wait here!"
He said that and went out, then took out his wallet and started calculating...
There's only about 10,000 yuan left in my salary card, and even if I withdraw it all, it won't be enough. To make up 20,000 yuan, I'll have to use my credit card.
With this in mind, Peng Yong went to a nearby tobacco shop. He often bought cigarettes there and was quite familiar with the owner. He knew that he could use his credit card to withdraw cash there, but he would have to pay a 3% handling fee.
Although it was a bit of a loss, Chen Yuanzhou threatened him with the orders, so he had no choice but to comply!
In the end, Peng Yong emptied two credit cards and then went to an ATM to empty his salary card, finally managing to scrape together 20,000 yuan before running back.
"Snap!"
Back in the meeting room, Peng Yong slammed the cash on the table: "The money's right here, you..."
"Why the hell did you just put it in your pocket?!"
Peng Yong lunged forward and grabbed the money, angrily saying, "You didn't even get the transfer sorted out, why should you take the money?"
Chen Yuanzhou, who was taking the money, was held back by him. He smiled, shook his head, and gestured towards the table with his lips.
Peng Yong then discovered that there was a set of three property certificates on the table, and the seller had already signed and sealed the blank letter of intent!
"No... so fast?" He picked it up incredulously and hurriedly checked it.
Chen Yuanzhou continued stuffing the money into his bag, saying, "The landlord isn't in Jiangcheng; they had their son come and sublet the room. They didn't haggle over the price, and their son is still in school, so he only came when he had time, which is why it was quick..."
"Have you clearly explained the client's requirements? They want to pay the taxes and fees for a higher total price..."
"We made everything clear on the phone after viewing the apartment! No offense, Lao Peng, but you're the manager of Yijingyuan, how can you not know the landlord of such a nice place?"
"Uh..." Peng Yong was speechless for a moment when asked the question.
As Chen Yuanzhou said, a store manager must give special attention to the key properties in the main residential area.
Some capable store managers can even become close friends with the landlord, using their relationship to gain an advantage when negotiating prices or competing for orders.
Therefore, Peng Yong's performance was clearly substandard!
"A house worth 490 million?" Peng Yong said awkwardly, "I never imagined it could sell for this price!"
"But you—" he continued, "you're clearly from the Qinchun Jiayuan branch, how come you know so much about our listings? I saw you had only this one key just now…"
"Did Xiao Mo tell you?"
When faced with this question, Chen Yuanzhou shrugged, neither confirming nor denying.
Actually, when he was helping Wu Jian'an find a house, he had already compiled a list of large-sized houses in the entire Liangbei District, especially townhouses and detached houses.
He has a comprehensive understanding of these properties, including their layout, condition, advantages and disadvantages, as well as the landlord's mindset.
If they weren't confident, how could they have instantly locked onto Yi Jing Yuan 16-1 when Ye Xiuxue and Fan Wenli came to their door?
Seeing that he didn't speak, Peng Yong didn't press him further.
How agents actually sign deals... has always been a secret among everyone, so it's normal not to talk about it.
Although it still stung when Chen Yuanzhou took the 20,000 yuan, at least he got the sales target.
So he urged, "Hurry up, use Xiao Mo's privileges to complete the transaction!"
"Just place the order," Chen Yuanzhou said, walking out of the conference room to begin processing...
……
Meanwhile, inside the Qinchun Jiayuan store.
Zhang Wang sat upright in front of the computer, glancing at his side every now and then...
Shortly after Chen Yuanzhou took clients to see the property, Lou Chunhua suddenly came to inspect the store.
While organizing the data reports, Lou Chunhua said with a smile, "Your store is quite busy today; everyone's out looking at properties."
Zhang Wang nodded quickly and replied, "Yes, there was news of an interest rate cut today, and two groups of customers came to our door."
"Can we close another deal today?" Lou Chunhua pressed. "Although we've met our sales target, we can't stop now, especially since it's the end of the month. We need to push harder."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Wang muttered to himself.
It's the beginning of the month, let's get off to a good start and make a splash.
It's mid-month, we can't let our guard down, we need to take a break.
It's almost the end of the month, time to relax and take a break.
Damn it, the core message for the entire month can be summed up in three words: give it a shot!
Sales performance isn't a skill that can be boosted at will.
Although he had reservations in his heart, Zhang Wang still smiled and said, "Don't worry, leader, I will do my best."
Lou Chunhua nodded in satisfaction. She had been in a good mood these past two days. Qinchun Jiayuan, which used to be at the bottom of the rankings, had already met its performance target. In the past two days, Yijingyuan was almost there as well, and Hongxin Garden and Xiushui Jiayuan had also boosted their performance through rental business.
"That old Wu~" Lou Chunhua frowned slightly when she thought of the New Century store: "His sales were at their best in the middle of the month, but they slumped at the end of the month."
Then, as if remembering something, she asked, "By the way, has Xiao Chen made any moves by the end of the month?"
"Huh?" Zhang Wang was taken aback, thinking to himself that Chen Yuanzhou was not quiet at all, he was making a huge commotion!
Although his bet with Peng Yong may not have much impact on the region, the fact that Lou Chunhua might not know about it could still be quite subtle.
He thought for a moment, then smiled and replied, "Boss, your expectations are too high. Xiao Chen has already signed three deals this month, what more do you want from him? The market isn't doing too well to begin with, is it?"
Lou Chunhua nodded slightly in agreement.
Indeed, it's quite an achievement for a newcomer to close three deals in a month...
As the two were talking, Lou Chunhua's phone rang, and at the same time, Fetion on her computer also started buzzing.
Knowing it was a Fetion message, she didn't even take out her phone; she just opened it...
[Good news! Congratulations to Mo Dongyan, a new employee at Yijingyuan store, for signing her third deal this month!]
Zhang Wang, who was standing nearby, also caught a glimpse of the message and immediately knew something was wrong!
The deception is about to be exposed!
Lou Chunhua saw this, frowned, tilted her head to look carefully, and then turned to look at Mo Dongyan sitting at the other end…
She's making a phone call right now at the Qinchun Jiayuan store, so how did she end up signing a contract?
Thinking of this, Lou Chunhua didn't rush to send the message to the group, but instead called out to Mo Dongyan, "Xiao Mo, come here!"
Mo Dongyan looked up in surprise and met Lou Chunhua's sharp gaze.
"Huh? Boss..."
She approached Lou Chunhua somewhat nervously…
"What's going on?" Lou Chunhua turned the monitor around and asked, pointing to the Fetion message.
