Visits. i(Armagan) Aricun
Man was Konyali, (I think), wife Antalyali
Had done a course on transport in Germany - very impressed with technical [& organisational] knowledge given. He now arranges transport deals ("taaron" he
said).
We discussed quality. He told a story.
Order from Jordan for high quality nohut {gl : chickpeas}.
He accepted; bought nohut, graded them, packed them in small plastic bags, boxed and sent them. 20 days work.
Immediate re-order. He could not do it, so he refused.
They have just come here and he has a contract for a small regular order.
He lived in Kayseri 2 1/2 years, exporting Land Rovers in crates to Iran - 50,000 LRS.
He rented a shop for 1 year from i(5853 Arefe) - paid 150,000 TL cost. Signed a contract, from which he crossed out words "give right of 1 month's notice to
quit". i(0552 Bekir) raised no objection.
A lot of general conversation.
i(5853 Arefe) arrived - general discussion.
Before he went he offered i(5853 Arefe) 4 or 5 m.TL at bank interest.
She declined - bank charges 75% p.a. i(0552 Bekir) said he would lend money @ 75% interest; i(Armagan) said "do not go to banks - a lot of fuss and bother..."
