The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

It doesn’t matter if you didn’t catch it sooner.

Unlike the people in the No. 95 courtyard, they were far away from the center of the storm and could gather energy at will.

Even if he had discovered this person earlier, he would not interfere in his affairs.

Li Ming did not take action against people like Zhang Haiyang and Luo Yun. He waited until these people lost power and then took two small actions.

The timing of his discovery was just right.

These people have not yet left the stage, and the most shining figures on the stage have turned into workers and fighters.

Li Ming randomly grabbed a student and asked for questioning.

"Hello, classmate, do you recognize the guy who just rode his bicycle? He was wearing a velvet hat and a military uniform. He looked tugged at me."

"He is Zhong Yuemin. Everyone in the school knows him."

"Looks like he's a character. Thanks!"

After finding out the name and his hometown, Li Ming turned around and went back to keep the appointment.

West of the city.

Liuquan lives in the restaurant.

Li Ming found two beauties drinking boiled water.

Luo Yun sat still in her seat and complained: "Why did you come just now! Xiaobai and I are almost starving."

Li Ming chuckled and said, "You two can eat first."

Zhou Xiaobai stood up and helped him put away his briefcase.

Luo Yun explained: "Xiaobai wants to wait for you to eat together. How can I have the nerve to eat alone first."

Li Ming said softly to Zhou Xiaobai: "You don't have to wait next time. It's hard for me to delay it because I don't know what will happen."

The little beauty responded obediently: "Okay."

Luo Yun laughed and teased: "Oh, yo, it makes me sour."

Li Ming asked Luo Yun: "You seem to be in a good mood. Didn't the events of the past few days affect you?"

Zhou Xiaobai took advantage of her boyfriend not paying attention and glared at her best friend.

Luo Yuncai was not afraid, and winked at Zhou Xiaobai, never forgetting to reply: "It's not bad. In fact, it has nothing to do with me. I'm just here to watch the fun."

"Have you picked up your business in the past two days?"

Luo Yun shook her head and said: "No. The notice of the last military training has begun to be implemented."

"Jingcheng University and some schools started military training yesterday. I don't know when it will be our school's turn. I will check the situation first."

Li Ming sat next to Zhou Xiaobai, "You are still well-informed. I didn't even know such a thing happened."

This kind of news that has not appeared in newspapers or tabloids spreads from Haidian to the east of the city. It may arrive in a short time, or it may take several days to know.

Luo Yun thought he was talking about the status advantages of her parents, and said politely: "You don't need military training, so you definitely don't care about us."

Zhou Xiaobai was indeed hungry, "When we first came in, did you ask them to serve food?"

"I'm calling. The dishes you ordered like fried crab with egg yolk, fried three kinds, and roasted ginseng with green onion all take time."

"Celebrating your promotion."

"I can't turn it down, otherwise I don't want to be the one. Meetings will be very troublesome."

This meal was a promotion banquet invited by Zhou Xiaobai.

a few days later.

1 month 25 day.

Hong Kong City, Central, Federation Building.

The large conference room of Xingchen Company.

Xingchen Company's director Li Ming, chairman Lou Xiao'e, and part-time director brother-in-law are holding a meeting with the company's senior managers.

Instant noodle factory, manager Wen Guangshun and deputy manager Ni Xiu.

Ham sausage factory, manager Lin Changjiu and deputy manager Chen Shimou.

Mars Trading Company, a full-time sales company, has manager Tang Hongde and deputy manager Lu Hanliang.

The Caotai team has already established the framework.

Wen Guangshun from the instant noodle factory reported: "Our factory at No. 10 Xixiang Street started installing machinery and equipment yesterday under the guidance of technicians from Riben Jingcang Machinery."

"Worker recruitment is also in progress. Based on Riben's experience, we need 300-360 employees. We have already recruited 100 people. We will try to recruit more and eliminate some after training."

"We are also in the process of negotiating prices for raw materials such as flour. Many companies have come to quote. I have compiled the quotation information for Chairman Lou."

"Everything is going well so far, and trial production should be started within this week."

Li Ming nodded and signaled the next person.

Lin Changjiu of the ham sausage factory reported: "The equipment of the ham sausage factory has just arrived in Hong Kong. We will pick up the goods in the afternoon and send them to the factory in Shau Kei Wan, Eastern District."

"The technicians of Yoshida Precision Machinery, we entertained them with delicious food and drinks for two days, and the other party's attitude was quite positive and kept asking us if the machine had arrived."

"For employee recruitment, we only need 100-120 people, and we have already put up posters."

What Li Ming likes most is that his subordinates have no problems and don't need to worry about him.

Tang Hongde from Mars Trading Company reported: "We have recruited 10 salesmen in advance and are conducting pre-job training according to the booklet given by Mr. Lou."

"The four trucks purchased by the company were picked up yesterday. Two drivers have been recruited and they are still recruiting."

"We still have a big problem now. Delivery may have to deal with associations in different regions, and each region needs to pay some fees."

Li Ming said: "Pay as much as you should, and act according to the rules. If the other party does not follow the rules, you must report it in time."

"Consultant Huang, who is responsible for the company's public relations, is looking for someone to help deliver a message to the congressmen, so that when the instant noodle factory opens and cuts the ribbon, there will be support from some powerful people."

(There are a total of 15 members of the Executive Council, and there are 8 unofficial members, 4 of whom are Chinese members. They are not elected. They are appointed by the Queen in name, but are actually selected by the Governor of Hong Kong.)
Tang Hongde of Mars Trading Company said politely: "Isn't this not easy to ask for? Our factory is not large in scale."

"Instant noodles can provide a lot of conveniences to restaurants and citizens. We invite them in the name of benefiting ordinary people. It's best if you can come. It's okay if you can't come." Li Ming said casually.

Instant noodle factory Wen Guangshun reminded: "The advisory committee also has work to do, right?"

(The advisory committee is composed of professionals in some industries and provides suggestions to the Hong Kong City Government. There are more than 100 at this time, some are ignored, and some still have some energy.)
The uncle, a part-time director, laughed and said: "I have donated money to several advisory committees in the name of instant noodle factory and ham sausage factory."

"I have visited several big bosses of the food industry association in the past two days and donated money to the association."

The boss of the company has already established the necessary connections.

Several professional managers have expressed their intention to speed up the progress of the work.

After the meeting.

The three members of the board of directors of Xingchen Company returned to Chairman Lou's office.

On the big desk, there are a lot of accounting books from Hong Kong City, some in English and some in Chinese.

Lou Xiaoe can manage the accounts for the time being, but the company will soon grow.

If she still wants to manage accounts, she must start learning more now.

"It's so tiring!"

Li Ming smiled fondly and said, "Are you tired of this? My eldest brother and I have already taken care of most of the things, and there is not much left for you to do."

Lou Xiao'e complained softly: "It's not all your fault for making the company structure so complicated."

"When you look at it more than half a year later, you will find that this system is just right."

The eldest uncle considered it and asked: "Does the instant noodle factory really have such a big prospect?"

"If I didn't have confidence, I wouldn't invest hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars to buy three sets of machines at once."

My uncle said with some pity: "Then let's promise those people that we will give priority to purchasing their flour and cooking oil under the same conditions. These are big businesses!"

Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes, "Brother, you don't want to open a company to supply us, do you?"

The elder brother-in-law smiled at his younger sister: "Instead of benefiting others in this business, it is better to benefit me. At least I won't cheat you."

Lou Xiao'e asked curiously: "Do you have that much money?" The uncle analyzed the feasibility, "The output of the instant noodles and ham sausage factories was not very large at the beginning."

"I haven't used the 2 Hong Kong dollars you gave me yet. Coupled with my previous savings, I can still set up a small company."

Lou Xiao'e couldn't say anything.

Li Ming agreed: "We have plans to build the flour mill ourselves, and we will only give you a small part of the order; there are no plans for the rest, and you can participate in the supply as long as you like."

It’s better to have more suppliers, as there is an excuse to keep the taste stable when the flour is adulterated.

If others follow his example, they will definitely be doomed. At that time, they may even suspect that the ratio of various flours is a secret recipe.

The eldest uncle said happily: "A few orders are enough for me to make money!"

Calculated based on a conservative calculation of 30 packs of instant noodles per day.

The fried dough has a moisture content of 5%, and ordinary flour has a moisture content of 14%.

一包85克方便面实际消耗的重量（油+14%含水量的面粉），85克×0.95÷0.86=93.89克。

among them:

Oil content = 85 grams × 15% = 12.75 grams.

Flour content (14% moisture content) = 93.89 grams - 12.75 grams = 82.25 grams.

30 bags per day × 82.25 grams = 24675 kilograms.

The unit price of flour is 0.32-0.52 yuan per kilogram. Based on 0.4 yuan per kilogram, 9870 yuan of flour needs to be purchased in one day.

Including losses, the flour purchase amount is at least 30 yuan per month.

Lou Xiao'e's eldest brother obviously settled the score.

As long as we get 10% of the orders, we can have stable sales of 3 yuan a month; there is also demand for flour from the ham sausage factory.

Add in the bulk of the cost, palm oil, and there is no pressure to support a small company.

of course.

Li Ming’s Xingchen Company made much more money!
For a pack of instant noodles, the raw material flour is 0.4 yuan per kilogram, and the cost of 82.25 grams is 0.0376 yuan.
Palm oil, calculated at 1.6 yuan per kilogram, 12.75 grams is 0.0204 yuan.

The cost of the noodles is 0.0579 yuan.

At this point, the cost of supplying noodles to roadside stalls, tea restaurants, etc. is almost complete.

The amortized costs of rent, labor, freight, water, electricity and gas are very low.

Including noodles, etc., all put together, it is 0.07 yuan, which is 7 cents.

Li Ming supplies the goods for 1.5-2 cents, and the tea restaurant sells them for 3-4 cents. Both sides make a profit.

The seasoning package and outer packaging of bagged instant noodles do not add 2 cents to the cost.

According to the market retail price of Riben, it is 35 yen per pack, which is about 6 cents in Hong Kong dollars.

You can’t sell it at that price in Hong Kong City, but you can sell it for 3-5 cents depending on the seasoning package.

Although the profit margin is not particularly high, the sales volume is considerable and the total profit is terrifying.

The actual cost can continue to decrease. Flour and palm oil are calculated based on retail prices. When the quantity increases, the purchase price can drop significantly.

If some means are used, the cost can be much lower. At this time, Nan Chao Moss has achieved very low costs.

Li Ming didn't plan to do that.

He divided his duties into 30 bags a day, making a net profit of about 3 yuan a day. You can buy a 4-square-meter house in 100 days.

The profits were huge, and he had deliberately complicated the company's structure before, which came in handy.

Allocate profits to different business departments.

Mars Company, which is responsible for sales, takes a large commission, and when it earns money, it invests in buying stores as distribution bases.

Instant noodle factories and ham sausage factories also spent large sums of money to buy land and build factories.

At the time of annual settlement, it will not be conspicuous on the financial statements.

This is formal.

There are also informal ones, because most of the payments at this time are in cash, and no one knows the actual sales volume.

If we have a good relationship and get along well with each other, no one will come to check.

Li Ming plans to ship goods to the sales company based on 20% of the net profit from the factory under his name. The factory operates in a very formal manner.

He doesn't intend to formalize the sales company because it cannot be formalized. For example, the 'fees' paid to various departments in the port city cannot be recorded in the accounts.

The 'fees' paid to various gangs cannot be entered into the financial statements.

There are also very inflated marketing expenses, which are very suitable for inflating costs.

Li Ming frowned slightly, "Brother, it's not convenient for Xiao'e to deal with those gangs."

"It's not appropriate to leave all the responsibility to Manager Tang Hongde of the trading company. You should supervise this area together with Consultant Huang Fuyi."

If you are given benefits, you should be ordered to work. Things that get something for nothing are not worthy of encouragement.

Moreover, Lou Xiao'e's eldest brother's identity is also suitable to endorse Lou Xiao'e.The chairman's surname is also Lou, and others may mistakenly think it belongs to the Lou family.

The eldest brother-in-law glanced at his little sister. She was so beautiful that she was really inappropriate.

"Yes. I will supervise it."

"Little sister, you don't need to take care of this company at all. We have arranged everything."

Lou Xiao'e was very dissatisfied with this sentence and hummed: "The accounts I am in charge of are the most important."

Facing Lou Xiao'e's intimidating look, Li Ming laughed and said, "It is indeed the most important thing."

Lou Xiao'e is indeed busy. "I still have two companies to set up. One is a flour mill and the other is a security company."

"The personnel of the security company must cooperate with the salesperson to ensure the safety of funds, and the personnel must be reliable. This is not easy to recruit."

Li Ming learned from the practices of previous kings and recruited good family members.

"Looking for people who have a family and a house. We don't need them to work hard, as long as they don't take the money and run away."

My eldest uncle reminded me, "You need to pay more."

"I plan to build a building to provide food, housing and education for their whole family."

The eldest uncle was shocked and said: "This investment is huge!"

"After the sales increase, every time I lose a payment, I will lose half of my house."

Thinking about it, this was really the case, so my uncle no longer objected.

Li Ming looked at his watch and said, "I'm leaving first. If there's something urgent, just make up your mind."

Since he was only free at noon or evening, my uncle was more sure that he was doing secret work and did not dare to ask about his schedule.

Brainstorming is so fun sometimes.

Beijing.

Rolling mill.

Li Fangsheng and Li Fangsheng, who went on a business trip to Shanghai, came back.

Li Fangsheng was bragging in the security department.

"I looked at my watch at that time. It was 11 o'clock sharp when the train arrived at Pukou Railway Station, and it was already 13 o'clock sharp when it left Nanjing. The train took a ferry to cross the Yangtze River, which took more than an hour."

"If the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is built, it won't be such a troublesome thing."

"Back View" 'You stand here and don't move, I'll buy an orange. 'This section took place at Pukou Railway Station.

As a good brother, Yang Dakui praised: "Then how do you see the construction of the bridge?"
