Chapter 147 Telling a Story to the Big Liar

Chen An looked at the tissue in his hand and kept thinking about one thing. He originally came to Nana to express his feelings with Hongdou in a vague way. But the previous situation happened again. He recalled the reasons for his emotional changes several times. Suddenly, a light bulb flashed in his mind and he thought of a possibility. However, to prove all this, he still had to check the information to prove it...

After figuring out the key points, Chen An's irritability after the emotional fluctuations was relieved a lot. He raised his head and looked at Nana. Seeing her eyes, he was stunned. This look was too familiar. He smiled bitterly in his heart. Could this be the legendary, "planting flowers with care but they don't bloom? Planting willows by accident but they grow into shades?"

Seeing Chen An staring at her blankly, Nana quickly lowered her head. Her heart was pounding, and she could only use the action of grinding coffee to hide her inner panic.

Just as the two were silent, Xie Zhiyao walked in from outside. Seeing their situation, he couldn't help but asked in surprise, "Brother Chen, what are you doing?"

Glancing at Xie Zhiyao's strange gaze, Nana subconsciously explained, "That Xiao Chen came here to drink coffee."

Chen An glanced at Nana, forced a smile and nodded, "Yes, come and take care of the business."

Xie Zhiyao frowned and looked at the two people's reactions. Something was wrong, very wrong.

Seeing Chen An's expression, Nana suddenly felt a little self-blame. Lin Na, Lin Na, what are you explaining? Is Xiao Chen overthinking it?

You are both single, why do you insist on explaining yourself?

When Chen An saw what Xie Zhiyao was holding, he quickly changed the subject and asked curiously, "Mr. Xie, what is this?"

"Nana, this is what I promised you." Xie Zhiyao placed three bottles of cherry wine on the bar.

"Why do you have more in your hand?" Nana asked, looking at the other bottle in Xie Zhiyao's hand.

Xie Zhiyao quickly stepped back and explained, "That won't work. Xia Xia is leaving tomorrow. I'm worried that my uncle is in a bad mood, so I'll go over and have a couple of drinks with him. He likes this. You guys chat, I'm leaving first."

Seeing Xie Zhiyao was about to leave, Chen An hesitated and called him, "Mr. Xie, wait a moment."

"What's the matter, Brother Chen, have you changed your mind?" Xie Zhiyao asked curiously.

"I have a story. I wonder if Mr. Xie is interested in listening to it?" Chen An asked with a smile.

"Story?" Xie Zhiyao was a little surprised by this answer, but after thinking about it, he realized that Chen An was a mysterious guy and would never tell him a story for no reason. There must be a deep meaning behind it, so he nodded and agreed, "Brother Chen's story, then I'd like to listen attentively."

Nana also stopped, very curious about what story this guy was going to tell.

Chen An cleared his throat and said, "There was a man named Zhang San. He heard from others that being a distributor was very profitable, so he gritted his teeth, took out all his savings, borrowed some money, and started a beer distributor business."

"It's just that the brand he created was a new one and was not recognized by the market at all, so he was dumbfounded. After promoting it for a while, it basically had no effect. He was facing the prospect of losing all his money because he couldn't think of a way to open up the market. At this time, a friend gave him a suggestion."

"He followed his friend's method and first went to the merchants to sell the goods normally. Then he followed his friend's method and found three people to go door to door to buy the goods according to his sales route."

"The first person went to buy it and specifically asked for a case of the beer he represented. As you can imagine, there was no beer."

"A few hours later, the second person went to buy three cartons of beer, but still couldn't find any."

"When the third person came later, he asked for 20 boxes at once, saying that he needed them for a banquet at home. But there was no stock, and the boss of the seller was helpless and could only watch as he failed to make money from the three waves of customers."

"So he chose to order 50 cases of beer from Zhang San at one time. Zhang San saw that this method was effective. Through this method, he not only easily sold all his squeezed inventory, but also successfully opened up sales channels and made a lot of money."

After hearing the story, Xie Zhiyao suddenly laughed, "Brother Chen, I understand what you mean, thank you for reminding me."

Chen An waved his hand. "You're welcome. After all, Mr. Xie is so helpful, which is admirable. I just said it, but the specific operation still depends on Mr. Xie."

"I'm looking forward to working with Brother Chen in the future." Xie Zhiyao waved and left.

Nana looked at Chen An and blinked her eyes. This guy looked really handsome when he was serious.

"Xiao Chen, what exactly is the meaning of the story you just told Mr. Xie?"

"Don't you understand?" Chen An asked, touching his nose.

"I roughly understand the meaning, but it always feels a little off..."

Chen An explained, "If there is no demand, then create it. This model is used in many industries, such as diamonds, gold, luxury goods, and skin care products. These all take advantage of this."

"This is the current situation of the woodcarving workshop. Only by making the target customers who need it aware of the difference between handmade and machine-made products can we create demand and revitalize the entire woodcarving workshop. Otherwise, relying on online sales and purchases from tourists, when will the woodcarving workshop be able to turn around?"

Nana suddenly realized, "Yes, that's what I mean."

Pointing to the grinder on the table, Chen An asked depressedly, "Nana, when will my coffee be ready? I've been waiting for so long."

"I'll be there soon..."

Nana quickly placed a cup of coffee in front of Chen An and said, "How about trying it?"

Chen An blew on it gently and took a sip. "Not bad, my craftsmanship is barely good enough to give me a 9 point..."

Nana suddenly asked in confusion, "No, Xiao Chen, since you have a way to revitalize the woodcarving workshop, why don't you choose to invest?"

Chen An spread his hands and said, "The reason is very simple. I make too little money."

"Hey, Xiao Chen, let me ask you a question."

"what is the problem?"

“How much do you make a month writing novels?”

Chen An thought for a moment and said, "Last month, it was about 200,000. This month, according to the current situation, it will be about double. Why are you asking this?"

"So many?" Even though Nana had guessed it, she was still very surprised by the number.

"I mean, do you have to be so surprised? You are a wealthy woman, driving a luxury sports car, unlike me, who only has a small electric car."

Nana pouted, "It's not like you can't afford it. Besides, at the rate you're making money, in three or two months at most, you'll be richer than me."
