The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Chapter 597 The price is negotiable (10,400) Good night

Cao Shujie didn't know at all that Cao Zhen's wife had a divine interpretation. Even if he knew, he didn't care. It only meant that he had such good fortune.

Cao Shujie will not interfere too much when it comes to young people investing in stocks.

If he intervenes now, they may watch Flush's stock surge later and remember that he stopped them from buying stocks now, which is equivalent to preventing them from making money.

By then, no matter how good the relationship is, the relationship will probably break up, and he will most likely end up with the reputation of "looking forward to the good of his brother, but also afraid of his brother driving a Land Rover."

It is impossible to explain this kind of thing without actually buying it and then personally experiencing the feeling of floating profits and floating losses.

Cao Shujie still had business to do. The day after the heavy rain, he drove to the town by himself.

Because of the rain, today's construction was temporarily hampered. Several construction companies are arranging for people to drain the water and then continue the work.

Everything is running normally at the factory and nothing special happens.

Cao Shujie walked around the workshop and returned to the office. Not long after he sat down, sales manager Guan Boyong came to him and told him that the negotiations with Wal-Mart were nearing completion.

According to Guan Boyong, all conditions have been negotiated.

"Boss, Walmart promises a payment cycle of 35 to 45 days." Guan Boyong reported the latest progress to Cao Shujie.

He also worked hard to get this result.

Cao Shujie was overjoyed: "Manager Guan, you did a great job!"

The expression on Guan Boyong's face softened instantly. He said: "There is no admission fee at Wal-Mart, and there is a 2% rebate on annual sales. The goods will be distributed in 100 supermarkets nationwide within 3 months. If the sales are good, It will be fully distributed in domestic supermarkets in three months."

Listening to Guan Boyong's report, Cao Shujie frowned, something was wrong.

Jiajiayue only gave him access to 50 chain supermarket stores in three months. No matter how good his purchase was, Jiajiayue didn't say any special treatment.

Walmart will sell products to 100 stores in 3 months?

Cao Shujie always felt that something was wrong, but he had never paid close attention to supermarket retail in his previous life and didn't know much about the situation at Wal-Mart.

He only remembered that there was a period of time when Wal-Mart closed many of its domestic supermarket stores.

"Close?" Cao Shujie frowned slightly, thinking about this doubt in his mind, but he really couldn't remember much useful information.

"Let's take it one step at a time." He thought to himself.

Time is the best touchstone!

"Manager Guan, when will the contract be signed?" Cao Shujie asked him.

"Boss, in a week we will go to Shenzhen to sign a contract with Wal-Mart China Headquarters."

Guan Boyong said to his boss.

Cao Shujie stood up and reached out to Guan Boyong. Guan Boyong didn't expect his boss to do this. He stretched out his hand in a panic and took Cao Shujie's hand.

"Manager Guan, thank you for your hard work. You should have a good rest for a day. In a few days, we will go to Shencheng to sign the contract together." Cao Shujie said.

"It's not hard, this is what I should do." Guan Boyong said.

After Guan Boyong left Cao Shujie's room, Cao Shujie called the production manager Shi Jingxiu and asked her to come to his office.

Shi Jingxiu didn't know what was wrong, but the boss called urgently, so she didn't dare to delay and ran over quickly.

"Boss, are you looking for me?" After arriving at Cao Shujie's office, Shi Jingxiu asked with some confusion.

Cao Shujie nodded: "Manager Shi, Manager Guan just reported good news to me."

He told Shi Jingxiu the results of Guan Boyong's negotiation with Wal-Mart. After he finished speaking, he saw Shi Jingxiu frowning and said, "Manager Shi, what are you doing?"

"Boss, we have to increase production." Shi Jingxiu said.

The company's current production capacity is almost reaching its limit, and theoretically less than 20% of its production capacity can be increased.

If we still want to continue to increase production in the future, we will have no choice but to open a new factory.

"It will take at least more than a year to complete the second phase of the Xuemeng Food Factory. If we look at it now, it is already too late." Cao Shujie muttered.

Shi Jingxiu also had the same idea.

Distant water cannot quench the near thirst.

She suggested: "Boss, I think we still have to buy another factory. Contact Dikang Automation Equipment Co., Ltd. to step up production equipment and increase the scale first."

"Or find a foundry."

Cao Shujie has no plans to do OEM work, but he is also considering acquiring another ready-made factory.

He said: "This plan is really not as fast as the change. I will talk to Secretary Liu and the others to see if they can think of a way."

That is to say, they will see if there are any idle factories, buy them, and before the second phase of the project is completed, they can renovate the existing factories and install equipment. The overall efficiency will be much faster.

The current factory can guarantee delivery to existing customers, but in the future when there are more and more customers, these supermarket chains will distribute more and more goods. By then, their factory will be too busy. .

It is also very scary if production capacity cannot keep up with sales volume.

In comparison, Cao Shujie would rather the factory's production capacity has always been greater than sales volume. It is best to move forward along an average line. This is the safest approach.

Shi Jingxiu left Cao Shujie's office and tried to figure out how to rationally utilize the performance of the equipment to increase production based on the existing production capacity.

Cao Shujie thought about it for a while, and then asked Song Baoming to drive away from the factory and go to the Qingshi Town Administration Building, intending to talk to Liu Furong and Luo Ningyou about buying another factory.

…

On the third floor of the Qingshi Town Administrative Office Building, in the office of Liu Furong, a senior official of the town party.

After listening to Cao Shujie's latest appeal, Liu Furong thought there was something wrong with his ears again.

But seeing Cao Shujie sitting securely on the chair, it didn't look like he was joking. He stood up and walked to Cao Shujie: "Director Cao, are you sure you weren't joking just now?"

"Secretary Liu, do I dare to joke with you like this? If I lie to you, wouldn't this be making fun of you?" Cao Shujie told Liu Furong about their company's signing of a new order contract.

This is the confidence of Xuemeng Food Factory.

But the more Liu Furong listened, the more incredible he felt.

"It's so difficult for other factories to develop a big customer, but when I come to your factory, everything seems to have become very simple." Liu Furong was puzzled.

He wondered, what's the difference here?

Cao Shujie was also puzzled. They also encountered some difficulties in developing the two current major customers of the factory, Jiajiayue Supermarket and Wal-Mart Supermarket, but overall the difficulty was acceptable.

"Secretary Liu, maybe the industry is different. Our industry is easier," Cao Shujie said.

He also mentioned: "But our industry has low barriers to entry and high competition. In addition, the speed of payment collection is slow. Some small factories are not strong enough and dare not develop big customers for fear of being dragged down by them." ”

"..."

There is some truth in saying this, and Liu Furong was speechless.

After all, even Cao Shujie himself thinks that their factory is strong.

"This is a good thing, but when you ask, I can't tell if there are any suitable ones. I will arrange for someone to check." Liu Furong said.

Cao Shujie was not in a hurry, he waited patiently.

Liu Furong made two calls. After giving instructions, he drank tea with Cao Shujie in the office and waited patiently.

After more than half an hour, someone came to Liu Furong to report the situation.

There is an abandoned factory that meets the requirements, but this factory only covers an area of ​​more than 160 acres, far less than 200 acres.

In other words, it covers an area one-third smaller than Cao Shujie’s current factory.

Cao Shujie thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's okay, Secretary Liu, how about we go take a look?"

"Then go and have a look. If it matches, you can modify the production as soon as possible and don't delay the delivery." Liu Furong was even more anxious than Cao Shujie.

The factory went bankrupt for various reasons and remained abandoned, which itself took up resources and caused a lot of waste.

But there are too few capable and powerful factories in the town. They are still a little far away from the county seat, and there is no one in the county who is willing to come and take over.

It's not easy to find someone like Cao Shujie, and it's no problem to sell it cheaply.

At that time, some jobs will be created and taxes will be increased.

To put it bluntly, under the current situation, Xuemeng Food Factory is likely to be the largest profit and tax recipient in Qingshi Town this year.

"Let's go take a look." Liu Furong asked the middle-aged man who had just come to report to lead the way.

They went to this abandoned factory together.

There is a distance of about 4 kilometers between here and the current Xuemeng Food Factory to the east and west, which is not too far away.

Someone had been waiting here. After seeing Liu Furong and Cao Shujie coming over, the young man waiting called Secretary Liu and then opened the door of the factory.

Looking inside, the factory yard was full of weeds. It was exactly the same as the factory Cao Shujie saw when he first saw it. It had typically been abandoned for a long time.

He was thinking that he was just collecting rags and patching up factories that no one wanted in Qingshi Town. It would be really difficult for him.

"Director Cao, what do you think of this place?" Liu Furong didn't even go in.

Judging by the growth of this weed in the yard, we know that no one comes to take care of it, and the workshop must be very dirty.

The more this happens, the more Liu Furong wants to get rid of it as soon as possible.

They remain in the hands of the government and are simply a burden.

"This place is okay. I'll tidy it up and it barely meets the requirements." Cao Shujie is not a vegetarian either.

He wouldn't give in to the benefits that should be striven for at the critical moment.

Liu Furong also understood this. He asked the middle-aged man next to him: "Director Wang, how much does it cost here? Are there any debt disputes?"

Wang Jiannan couldn't tell directly, so he said to Liu Furong in a roundabout way: "Secretary Liu, we need to check this first."

Liu Furong nodded: "Then you go back and check now and report the results to me as soon as possible."

"Yes." Wang Jiannan left.

Liu Furong asked Cao Shujie if he wanted to go to the workshop to have a look?

Cao Shujie definitely wanted to see it. He wanted to see the damage here, so that he could have an idea of ​​the value of the factory in the future, instead of blindly giving a price and calling it a day.

In this kind of transaction involving large sums of money, there is no question of pitying anyone, only an overall consideration.

The young man holding the key had been waiting nearby. When Cao Shujie and Liu Furong said they wanted to take a look inside the workshop, he carefully stepped on the weeds in the factory yard and walked out, looking for the key and opening the three buttons on the workshop door. Big ring lock.

"Clang!"

As one of the doors was pushed open hard, the sound of friction and collision between the iron door rollers and the track was heard, and the door shook a few times.

That's not all. There was also the sound of flapping wings in the workshop, and there were many birds flying.

Immediately after the young man opened the door, he saw several rats running back and forth in the workshop at very fast speeds. One of the rats even ran towards the door, which caught him off guard. He saw the rat running towards him immediately. He was so frightened that he screamed and took a few steps back.

It was Cao Shujie who took two steps forward to hold his back, otherwise he would fall to the ground.

If you look carefully, you will find that there are a lot of fine stones on the ground behind him. If he really falls down, he will definitely be seriously injured.

"Hmph." Liu Furong snorted heavily.

He felt that this young man was too cowardly to be frightened by a mouse, which also embarrassed him.

Don't look at it. When chatting with Cao Shujie, Liu Furong behaved very casually and seemed to be easy to talk to.

But in front of others, he is still a senior party official in Qingshi Town and the top leader in Qingshi Town.

Seeing Liu Furong's embarrassed expression, the young man was frightened.

Cao Shujie also felt that he was a little timid, but it was normal if he thought about it carefully.

In such a poor place, in June when the sun was shining brightly on a sunny day, they still felt a sense of coolness at the entrance of the workshop. Unexpectedly, they thought there was something unclean.

"Little brother, lead the way, let's go in and have a look together." Cao Shujie said.

Liu Furong did not pursue the matter further. The three of them went in together, so it was easier to see clearly the dilapidation in the workshop at a close distance.

Much of the anti-rust paint originally painted on the steel structure supported by the I-beams has been mottled and fallen off, and now it looks rusty and particularly ugly.

The color steel plates put together also looked very old. The white color steel plates had now turned khaki, and some places were covered with spider webs.

There were not only rats but also dead animal carcasses in the workshop, and there was a musty smell everywhere.

The rest of the place was much the same as what they saw in front of them.

Cao Shujie and Liu Furong stopped looking inside.

After coming out of the workshop, they went to the office area on the other side, which was a two-story building. Compared with the current office building of Xuemeng Food Factory, this office building was not big.

As was the case in the workshop, the office building will have to be renovated if it is to be used again.

Liu Furong was a little embarrassed after reading it. It looked like this place was going to be overhauled, and it would cost a lot of money.

"Director Cao, what do you think?" Liu Furong asked him.

Cao Shujie nodded: "Overall, it's okay. Even sorting it out will cost a lot of money."

Liu Furong felt awkward when he mentioned the word money, as if Cao Shujie was trying to ask him for money.

"The price is negotiable." Liu Furong said in advance.
