Chapter 59 Opportunities in the European Market

From a production perspective, the only difference between fly traps and mouse traps is the glue used, but everything else is the same.

In terms of sales, An Yongqiang's business is not big, but Zhao Chengguang's business is basically through the same channels, selling to hawkers and small shops. Formal department stores do not stock these things.

In less than a week, the sales of fly traps quickly surpassed those of mouse traps.

One noon in June, Yang Wendong and Su Yiyi were following a part-time financial worker and learning how to keep accounts while enjoying an electric fan.

"It should be here." The part-time accountant was doing the accounts for the Changxing Pest Control Company while teaching the two of them step by step.

Yang and Su are also learning hard. One is the boss, but he also needs to know a little about finance; the other is a novice, so he needs to be proficient.

Fortunately, after several changes, Yang Wendong finally found someone who was really willing to teach knowledge. The previous ones were all hiding and then were directly driven away by Yang Wendong.
"Knock knock knock~" There was a knock on the door. It was Zhao Liming.

Zhao Liming said: "Brother Dong, that white guy is here? The female one."

"Elena?" Yang Wendong naturally knew who she was. He had met several foreigners during this period, but Elena was the only female.

"Yes, I always can't remember the names of these foreigners." Zhao Liming said with a smile.

"I'll be there right away." Yang Wendong stood up and said to Su Yiyi, "You learn first, don't worry about me, I'll go over first."

"Okay." Su Yiyi nodded.

After coming out, Yang Wendong saw Elena standing at the door at a glance.

"Ms. Elena, long time no see. You look younger." Yang Wendong walked up and said with a smile.

After hearing this, Elena also laughed and said, "I'm over 50 years old, so what's the point of being young or not? But I'm still very happy to hear you say that."

Yang Wendong asked: "Ms. Elena, why are you here?"

Elena said: "I heard from Brian that you opened a factory. I was very surprised when I heard it at that time, so I came to see it today."

"So that's how it is. Please come in. The environment here is not very good, please don't mind it." Yang Wendong smiled and then invited her to his small office.

The entire Changxing Pest Control Factory, apart from the workshop, has only a conference room and an office, both of which are very small.

"Mr. Yang, can I take a look at your factory first?" Elena asked after taking a look at the office.

"Of course." Yang Wendong agreed. It wasn't a top-secret place, so he naturally didn't care who came to see it.

He was still very grateful to Elena, the white foreigner. If she hadn't given him a chance, he might still be selling mousetraps in the East Vegetable Market today, and he would still be living in a dormitory.

The factory is not big, and even if Yang Wendong introduced it while walking around, it would only take three minutes.

After all, the structure of the mouse trap and fly trap is very simple, and the main thing about this thing is creativity.

Elena looked at the fly trap in her hand and said, "Mr. Yang, you are really amazing. If something like this is sold around the world, it may benefit hundreds of millions of people."

"I would like to, but I don't have the channel." Yang Wendong said with a smile.

Hong Kong's domestic market is pitifully small except for real estate and finance, and can only rely on exports. Whether it is re-export trade before the 50s, industry from the 50s to the 70s, or even tourism after that, almost 9% of it is dependent on overseas markets.

Overseas channels are basically controlled by foreign companies. Even local trading companies in Hong Kong are actually connected to overseas trading companies and simply make a small profit from running errands.

Not to mention, this mouse trap is still a new thing and traders may not be willing to try it.

Elena thought for a moment and said, "Such a good product should benefit mankind. Perhaps I can help a little."

"Ms. Elena, do you have overseas sales channels?" Yang Wendong looked at her in surprise.

This Hong Kong government official, who has a kind heart, seems to have some connections.

Elena said: "It's not really a channel, I am not only an official of the Social Welfare Department in Hong Kong, but also a member of an official charity in the UK.

Over the years, our organization has also purchased some poverty alleviation materials from many traders, generally basic living materials, and these people may be interested in this.”

After listening to this, Yang Wendong said, "It's possible that they are doing business in the UK?"

Elena replied: "Yes, mainly the UK, but also some European business. If they are interested in your products, they are able to sell your products to Europe."

"Then please help me contact them. If successful, I..." Yang Wendong was stuck before he could finish his sentence.

If he were a normal person, he would just give the benefits directly. Hundreds or thousands of dollars are a considerable amount of money in this era. As long as he can be given more benefits, he will not be stingy.

But this trick doesn't seem to work for the person in front of me. If I say it out loud, it might even make her angry.

Elena smiled and said, “I know what you want to say, but you don’t have to. Remember when we met for the second time, I told you that if you have the ability in the future, you can help more poor Chinese people, especially children.

Now that you have succeeded, and I hope you can do this, that is enough for me.”

"Ms. Elena, you are a great person." Yang Wendong was silent for a while, then said, "For this, I would have done it even without your request."

"It's not great, but it's the idea that I've been instilled with since I was a child, to help others." Elena said: "As a wealthy country, Britain should help other countries."

"It's my duty." Yang Wendong nodded.

He naturally knew how black-hearted and cruel those foreigners in Europe and America were. They were just a group of wolves in sheep's clothing.

But for the sake of this virtual culture, their education is still teaching some great principles. Over time, people like Elena will emerge. Although they are few, they really exist.

But there is no need to say such things. People who concentrate on doing charity already have faith in their hearts.

Elena thought for a moment and said, “Well, I’ll go back and contact my friends in England and ask them to contact those traders. Maybe they’ll be interested.

However, I cannot make any promises. After all, this is a new product and those merchants are not familiar with it. They may not be willing to come to Hong Kong specifically for a product they are not familiar with.”

"Okay, whether it succeeds or not, I am very grateful to Ms. Elena." Yang Wendong said with a smile.
