The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

Li Ming hugged one with each other, "The TV is not as good as you two, and Sister Qin's time is very tight."

Qin Huairu came over to see Xiqi, "You asked me to take the children out to play during the day. They were tired from playing today and slept soundly, otherwise I really wouldn't have time to watch."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "Not bad, right? It's "Evening News" soon, let's watch the news together."

For Qin Huairu, the news in Hong Kong City is not interesting, and she is even more worried about her family. "Just watch, I'd better go back first."

No matter how long we stay, we have the experience of watching TV together. Li Ming promised: "Okay, I will take you back right away."

After Qin Huairu left, Li Ming and Lou Xiao'e cuddled up on the sofa, watching the news and commenting.

Lou Xiao'e held his arm, "The pound devalued just yesterday, and today there are many more foreign trade orders in the entire port city."

Li Ming chatted: "With a 14.3% reduction, other people's profits will also increase by 14.3%. Of course, they will have the motivation to place orders with Hong Kong City."

"With the recovery of foreign trade orders and the price of real estate in Hong Kong City falling by more than 10%, overseas funds will have more motivation to come to Hong Kong City to purchase properties."

"The real estate market can't go down any further. We just have to wait and see when prices start to appreciate."

The port city has sufficient cheap labor, sufficient low-level managers, sufficient financial credit, and the advantages of low tax rates. Coupled with a stable depreciating exchange rate, foreign trade is either taking off or taking off.

Lou Xiao'e said depressedly: "Our assets in Hong Kong City also lost 14.3%. If we had known, we would have exchanged more US dollars."

"Didn't you already prepare the dollars needed to purchase equipment recently?"

"It's been changed."

Li Ming said with relief: "As long as we don't exchange currency, there is actually no loss. It's all floating losses on the books."

"The product competitiveness brought about by the fall in the exchange rate and the increase in profits from Hong Kong City's export of goods to Japan, Magnesium and Ouzhou are real."

Lou Xiao'e hummed, "I'm just a little pity."

"And I have no spare money after buying a house this year. I originally planned to buy a cargo ship next year to travel between Hong Kong City, Australia, and Singapore. But the ship price has risen so much out of thin air. I will have to spend a lot more money next year."

As early as 1956, Japan surpassed Yingguo and became the world's largest shipbuilding country. At this time, Japan already accounted for 40% of the global share, and 30% of the share was owned by several countries in the Ouzhou continent.

Yingguo's share is less than 7%, and it is still falling.

The transaction price of a ship is hundreds of thousands of dollars. The Hong Kong dollar has depreciated along with the pound. Buying ships from Japan, Italy, China, Germany and other countries is virtually 14.3% more expensive.

The extra money is quite considerable, and Lou Xiao'e does have reason to be a little depressed.

Li Ming kissed her gently and said, "With our own ship, it will be much easier to arrange manpower to Australia."

"The company will have a lot of revenue next year, so buying a ship is not a problem."

Feeling coaxed, Lou Xiao'e happily responded: "Yes. This is also a boost. When we officially launch quartz watches, Swiss watches will not be our opponents."

Li Ming reminded with a smile: "Our opponent has never been Swiss watch company."

"Our opponents are those of our peers. Their business strategies are more pragmatic and flexible, and they are not so easy to deal with."

Instead of being rigid and lifeless in a few decades, today's Japan is full of vitality.

Lou Xiao'e said confidently: "Compared to Hong Kong City, Riben's costs have also increased. Yesterday's meeting also specifically discussed the Riben market."

"Ribenyou stayed on the east coast of the Taiwan Strait and in the southern part of the country for decades and had a profound impact on both places."

"Tang Hongde suggested that the Riben branch, the east coast branch of the Taiwan Strait, and our business in Nanchaomo should be managed by Riben's manager Lu Hanliang."

Li Ming had another opinion, "The Southern Dynasty Moss can be managed by the Riben Branch, and there is no need for the east coast of the Taiwan Strait."

"We mainly enter the market on the east coast of the Taiwan Strait through joint ventures. There are not many actual affairs there, and we can directly manage them ourselves."

"The Nanyang Market, the Hong Kong City Market, and the east coast of the Taiwan Strait together are not as big as the Japanese market."

"You and I don't have time to go to Riben at the moment. The Riben branch is too powerful and inappropriate."

Lou Xiao'e agreed: "Then I won't change it. I feel that things in the company have been a little complicated recently and I want to smooth them out."

Li Ming just found something for her to occupy herself with, not to tire her out. He said with concern: "If you feel tired, we will split up and sell the overseas company."

"In the future, we will only conduct R&D and produce products in the port city, and sales will be handled by cooperative companies in the local market."

Lou Xiao'e felt quite relieved that she didn't want so much profit, "That's not necessary. I can still be busy."

"If you're really tired, there's no need to hold on."

"It's not tiring. You also said that the main reason is that our company is developing too fast and lacks talents to take advantage of it, which is why we have such trouble."

"More and more talents will join the company, so you should check more."

"I'm paying attention."

"The company is developing too fast, and all kinds of problems are prone to occur. Thank you for your hard work."

It is impossible for people to take all aspects into consideration, and the management system and supervisory technology at this time are relatively backward.

Some shortcomings are also difficult to avoid, such as purchasing personnel lining their own pockets.

For example, decades later, in the video war between Ai, You, Teng, etc., many people entered because of the crime of "bribery of non-state personnel."

There are even more people who didn’t go in.

the next day.

Work on Monday.

Haidian, ham processing factory.

Li Ming is inspecting the newly built temporary factory building.

A thin layer of plywood serves as the wall, which is simpler than the black workshops of a few decades later, but it looks much more pleasing to the eye, mainly because it is clean and tidy.

This is called simplicity but not simplicity.

Li Ming stood at the door of the workshop, "There are no new production lines now, and workers are idle when they are idle."

"Send them out and station them at the factory. Once they are produced, they will take the goods back to the main factory for later use."

Liu Hongxiu, who is responsible for organizing production and equipment procurement, said: "The business trip costs a lot, right?"

Li Ming calculated the accounts for her: "If the production line can be completed earlier, the daily profit will be enough for them to travel for several months."

"If you don't hurry up now, you will know what is urgent when orders from food import and export companies come in."

Liu Hongxiu asked: "Can we gather the team leaders together and hold a meeting first?"

The main factory makes a ham sausage production line, and the raw materials and accessories ordered do not need to be watched by people from the processing plant.

This kind of additional expense requires everyone to make a decision together to avoid being picked on later.

Li Ming agreed: "Okay. The time has been set, and I will come over to host the meeting when I am free."

Xiao Pingying, who is in charge of factory infrastructure, said in a loud voice, "We will definitely choose a time when you are free."

"It's hard to tell my time. The time is determined by not delaying workshop production."

Li Ming then sighed and said: "The automation equipment in Jincheng is a little slow, otherwise there would be no need to be so anxious."

Song Jing, who was in charge of finance, praised: "You placed the order in advance."

"If we wait until the bank loan is obtained before placing an order, if the manufacturer does not have production materials, development has not started yet." More than a month ago, Li Ming sent Zhang Haiyang to send drawings to Jincheng. The reason for the advance arrangement was anticipation. Canton Fair' may have a large number of orders.

If there are orders that cannot be completed, the food import and export company will not dare to take on all the orders.

The production expansion project of the ham sausage processing plant was launched early, and the import and export company dared to take more orders.

On the other hand, the processing plant must not lose control, otherwise the import and export company will send people to the factory to keep an eye on it.

Liu Hongxiu said with a smile: "I hope the food import and export company can receive more ham sausage orders this time."

Song Jing added, "If there are too many, we won't be able to finish it."

Li Ming said casually: "It's okay. With the automated filling and ligation machine, a workshop can have a daily production capacity of 10 tubes."

Liu Hongxiu said in surprise: "If everything is in place, we will have a daily production capacity of 50 pieces. Can we be busy?"

Li Ming smiled and said, "You must be busy enough. The raw material, pork, is the restriction."

Song Jing was in charge of accounting, and she did the calculations in her mind, "No wonder Section Chief Li has been saying that you will increase your efforts in raising pigs and increase the construction of cold storage."

"There are 50 hams a day, 1 million hams a year, more than 8000 million kilograms of pork, and over 1500 pigs!"

Liu Hongxiu corrected: "You forgot to calculate the meat rate. 1500 million kilograms of pork actually costs about 20 heads."

This number was a bit large, and Xiao Pingying asked in surprise: "How many pigs do we raise in the entire capital!?"

Li Ming knows a lot about the statistics of agriculture and animal husbandry. “I don’t know what happened last year and this year. In the year before last, more than 65 head were purchased in 90.”

In 1965, there were 93.4 commercial pigs, and the stock at the end of the year was 145.4 million. The locally supplied pork is 34785 tons, which is 6957 million kilograms.

41455 tons of pork were also transferred from other places, totaling 76240 tons of pork, which is 1 million kilograms, which is a peak.

787 million people have so much pork, and each person has almost 20 kilograms of pork.

(Page 23 of the Animal Husbandry Journal, Page 24 of the Non-staple Food Business Journal, some members’ self-reserved pork may not be included in the calculation)

If a factory takes up 10% of the city's pork, it will definitely not be able to supply it.

In 65, the sales volume of cooked meat products was only 1086 tons, or 217 million kilograms.

The ham processing plant is at risk of being split up.

Many factories moved inland from the coast, not only for war preparation reasons, but also for raw material reasons.

Railway freight is limited, and in order to maximize the use of industrial capacity, some factories are split into different regions.

Building new factories near raw materials solves freight bottlenecks and also brings fire, promotes industrial development in backward areas and balances regional disparities.

'Together progress' these days is more than just a slogan.

Apparently, several people on the processing plant management committee also thought about this issue.

Liu Hongxiu is in charge of production and pays more attention to raw materials. “With 20 pigs a year, we need 200 pig farms with 1000 pigs.”

"Counting the farms that purchase three kinds of products, we only have two now. It's far from enough and it's too late."

Li Ming knew for sure, "If there are no big surprises next year, the local pork production in Beijing will increase greatly."

Xiao Pingying's eyes lit up, "Chief Li, you have thought of this early, right?"

"Fermented feed and pellet compound feed allow farms and communes to raise more pigs, and the time for pigs to be slaughtered has also been shortened."

Li Ming nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I asked the factory to send people to the countryside to sell the pellet feed machine."

"Because the pig production in Beijing has increased, the amount of pork transferred from outside will definitely decrease. The pig farms we built ourselves still have to keep up."

Song Jing said happily: "If the production capacity is full, our processing plant will have a profit of close to 300 million yuan a year!"

Xiao Pingying suddenly said: "Chief Li, we need to merge into the main factory as soon as possible. Otherwise, the food companies in the city will definitely come and rob us."

Li Ming asked uncertainly: "We are now a fund-raising factory, can food companies come over to grab ownership rights?"

Liu Hongxiu also reacted, "The processing plant only has one food business: ham sausage, so it's only natural that it should be put under their control."

The reason for being so positive is still because of the house.

If it is merged into a food company, all profits will be handed over, and the house will have to wait for the allocated quota for unified housing construction. As an outsider in the system, it is likely to have to wait.

As for the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, the 300 million yuan will definitely be used to build houses, plus the employee welfare fund, and the Lujiashan Building Materials Factory.

Even if the cost of the steel rolling mill is doubled and the land is purchased to build houses, at least 3 square meters can be built.

A 30-square-meter dormitory can be built with 1000 units, and a 15-square-meter single dormitory can be built with 2000 units.

Within 10 years, there will be no housing shortage in the entire steel rolling mill.

The employees of the whole ham processing plant are all family members of the steel rolling mill, so everyone has an opportunity.

After the house is allocated, the ham sausage processing factory will be allocated to other units, so just do it.

The employees get their investment capital back. The factory belongs to the state and they work the same wherever they go.

Li Ming had nothing to do about the ownership of the factory. "I have to go back to the factory to discuss it with Director Li and the others."

Xiao Pingying said doubtfully: "The factory doesn't know how much it can expand production!"

Liu Hongxiu whispered: "It seems that no one knows how much production can be expanded."

Song Jing shook her head and indicated that she didn't know either.

Li Ming said awkwardly: "I seem to have forgotten."

When he was talking about loans for production expansion, he specifically told Section Chief Chen Guodong how many times production capacity could be increased after automation.

To convince other members of the committee, he just mentioned it casually.

He mainly said that because food import and export companies may look for manufacturers in the south, when the supply of pork is insufficient, additional employees may have nothing to do and suffer losses. Automated equipment can be used to adapt to changes.

The entire factory has unconditional confidence in Section Chief Li's ability to do things. Since Section Chief Li has said so, the people in the Provincial Committee also agree.

There was no good thing about recruiting workers. Later, the whole factory was concerned about the training class, and no one asked him how much he could expand production.

Li Ming has seen an output of tens of billions of sticks a year. Every small business in the port city is worth hundreds of thousands or millions, and he himself doesn't care.

If you are not careful, you will not release the satellite to brag, but you will release a real large satellite.

With a production capacity of more than 1.8 million cords, North China has a population of 9500 million, which is almost 2 cords per capita.

Production capacity will be available soon, but now we are only short of pork.

Another immature plan popped up, and Li Ming ordered: "Commissioner Liu, Commissioner Xiao, please register the remaining surplus employees in the processing plant."

"I want to send them all to the breeding farm of Purchasing Sanke to learn how to make pig feed."

"When they learn how to do it, send them to Hebei, Yu, Shanxi and other places to promote pig feed."

"These key provinces are the main sources of pork imported from Beijing. By helping them increase their production, the amount of pork transported to Beijing will not decrease for a while."

Xiao Pingying worried: "They have never raised pigs before, can they do it?" (End of Chapter)
