Cold chain for 20 years

Chapter 99 Farmers Markets
One day in early November, Lei Xiaoxi led his team to inspect Tongxing Cold Chain Park on behalf of the Municipal Bureau. Hu Shutong accompanied him throughout the process and gave a detailed explanation and report.

The leaders of the inspection were satisfied with the construction progress, project quality, safety regulations and many other aspects, and some of them exceeded expectations.In the two-month construction period, in addition to the floor pipes, the beam-column structure has also been erected, and the framework in front of you can already show the prototype of a grand park.

To be precise, the mega-scale of monolithic libraries.

The distance between every two reinforced concrete columns is as long as 16 meters, and the span of the column network is so large that it is hardly seen in the cold storage project in Qingyan City.With a column height of 9 meters, it is also a rare large-scale single-layer cold storage in the region.This state of momentum is really shocking, and it can't help but remind people of the future.

This time, Lei Xiaoxi also brought another good news to Hu Shutong.

After the official operation of Tongxing, the most difficult problem is undoubtedly "where should the goods go?" It is still difficult to put on the agenda to reach cooperation with large enterprises in the province for warehousing and distribution.

Tongxing has to go a long way by itself. An emerging park has zero trust among enterprises, and things in scale are not enough to be the basis for cooperation. Tongxing's operating ability and business efficiency are the real professional manifestations, which can serve enterprises The real way to bring profits.

How to take this step is exactly what Hu Shutong expected Lei Xiaoxi's help on the phone, and he was sure that it was the major farmers' markets in the city.

The farmer's market is one of the output terminals of the entire cold chain system. It directly faces consumers and enters all kinds of food materials from thousands of households. The farmer's market plays an extremely important role.When buying vegetables, everyone hopes to have a clean, tidy and bright vegetable market, where the vegetables are bright and straight, but this is not the case in reality.

In fact, farmers' markets also have their own path of change.

The 90s of the last century was a great era of rapid expansion of the farmer’s market. While it provided more convenience for citizens, it also had extremely low barriers to entry for the industry due to many local policies of “whoever invests will benefit”.As a result, a series of problems such as extensive management, poor facilities, and single functions have emerged in the land-sale farmers' market.

Overheated development is accompanied by vicious competition. After the investment in the farmers' market, there is no management, and it has evolved into a "big market" for renting stalls. There is no unified constraint, and dirty and chaotic has become a common phenomenon.

Since 2001, under the guidance and support of national special funds, a large number of farmers' markets have undergone infrastructure upgrades, and at the same time, they have focused on improving modern logistics functions such as quality and safety supervision and strengthening of refrigeration and fresh-keeping facilities.The "Technical Specifications for the Management of Agricultural Product Wholesale Markets" was also issued to promote transformation, standardization and upgrading. Many agricultural product markets have been relocated, and the transaction scale of individual markets has expanded significantly.

And some farmers' markets have begun to focus on businesses such as refrigerated processing of agricultural products, grading packaging, and unified distribution, which perfectly match the functions of Tongxing.

In Hu Shutong's mind, it is far from a solitary park plan. He not only knows how to establish, but also knows how to go.Do storage and transfer first, and focus on supplying products to farmers’ markets. The competitiveness of the first step is also in line with the expectations of the Municipal Bureau for the park. From the field to the market terminal, we will work together to make this first step effect is clearly visible.

According to Lei Xiaoxi, through the rectification of the farmer's market, the Planning Bureau, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and the Health Bureau have reached guidance on the three large-scale farmers' markets in the city, and listed Tongxing as a key vegetable cooperative enterprise.

The big stone in Hu Shutong's heart has fallen. This is very important, and it is the best way to open up the situation at this time.More importantly, this will bring revenue to Tongxing as soon as possible. Only Hu Shutong knows how much pressure there will be during this period. Persecution will be unbearable.

At nightfall, the workers stopped working. This group of people was exactly the garrison team that Hu Shutong saw in the southern suburbs.

It is a happy thing for the workers to be able to work with Yu Dajun.The workers are away all year round, and they are not afraid of being tired and just want to have a snack. When it comes to settlement, don't delay it.Yu Dajun worried a lot about food and housing and wages, which brought about the brothers working hard together and doing a good job with all their heart and effort.The old guys still talk about Boss Yu one by one, and never hear them talk about Mr. Yu.

In the evening, in this temporary board room, Yu Dajun is used to drinking some wine, and Hu Shutong often drinks with him.

Yu Dajun was originally an emotional person, and the same thing that he hadn't seen for many years after drinking was born again. Hu Shutong sighed and missed such a moment.In many cases, when a series of particularly symbolic experiences are connected in series, people will not forget where they came from. It is like a pair of invisible hands that will support a person to see the future without shaking.

That was at the end of 00, and now it is the end of 04. Everything is different, but some things can be carried through from the beginning to the end. The experience of people is the same, and the original intention and determination of the cold chain are also the same.

Hu Shutong is most fortunate that he never left his old man all the way from the dormitory back then to the board room today.At this moment, the sound of car horns came from the entrance of the park, and the headlights were on high beam, illuminating the area.

Hu Shutong and Yu Dajun walked out quickly, and kept asking questions at the gate, always answering irrelevant questions.

After a while, a person poked his head out and yelled non-stop.

"Boss Hu! Mr. Hu! I'm Lin Xiang!"

"The army is here too! You two are sleepwalking there! Give me a shot!"
