Sent Cheng Xi home, Cao Mo took a taxi back to Tianzifang, and Xiao Jun accompanied Guo Donghu to sit in a music bar at the corner of the street and chatted awkwardly-

Cao Mo sat down and picked up a bottle of beer and said, "With Mr. Guo's qualifications, Xinhai is not worried about finding a job, so there is no need to sell miserably in front of me, right?" Or does Guo always hate me for messing up your job?"

"How dare you?" Guo Donghu sat down, handed over a cigarette, and said, "It's not difficult for me to find a job in Xinhai to support my family, but I think that if I can work for Mr. Cao, I should be able to play a greater value, and I am confident that it will help Mr. Cao's career......"

"Has your visa to Kanem expired?" Cao Mo asked.

"The visa doesn't expire until June, and you can extend it whenever you want. Guo Donghu said.

"I don't know when I will be able to negotiate the acquisition, maybe in the end I can't negotiate at all, if you work for me now, I can only give you an annual salary of 200,000 yuan, everything is included, and overseas allowances, overtime pay and the like, nothing, are you still willing?" Cao Mo asked.

Guo Donghu hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "I believe that Mr. Cao will not treat me badly, I can accept this condition." ”

Seeing that Guo Donghu had the cunning unique to middle-aged people in and out of his words, Cao Mo smiled, and there was nothing to worry about at all.

Whether Xinxuan Food can be successfully acquired, Cao Mo must have its own industry in China.

Even if they can't find a suitable target to implement the acquisition and invest in the construction of a new factory, they also need people like Guo Donghu who are proficient in many aspects of this industry to cooperate with Chen Feng to do the work.

At present, Chen Feng is in charge of the negotiations with Xinxuan Food, and Cao Mo cannot use Guo Donghu to stimulate Gu Jinxing in China for the time being, but he is now almost about to integrate the food trade and production on both sides into one framework, especially the cocoa bean processing plant in Longta needs to be further sorted out in many aspects, and Guo Donghu can be responsible for this work first.

"In the production of cocoa butter and powder, I have invested in a small factory in Kanem, and in the next step, whether or not I can successfully acquire Xinxuan, I will integrate this business into one company. Chen Feng will serve as the president of Conero Foods, and you will be Chen Feng's deputy. Three-month probationary period, annual salary of 200,000 yuan; at the end of the probationary period, I will give you 1% of the equity of Conero Foods; at the end of two years, I will give you another 1% of the equity-if you can accept it, today is not early, I will inform Chen Feng tomorrow to draw up the contract-you go back and prepare, and accompany me to Kanem in the next two days, and integrate and sort out the business over there......" Cao Mo said.

Cao Mo initially expected to give Guo Donghu 3-4% of the shares before it was possible to recruit him, but since Gu Jinxing couldn't wait to force him away from Xinxuan Food, there was no need to be too generous.

Now the landlord's family has no surplus grain, and it is a little bit that can be saved.

This morning, Gu Jinxing officially asked him to hand over his resignation report, Guo Donghu was prepared, but he still felt that he had been beaten.

There are two or three hundred domestic-funded cocoa powder processing factories in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Xinhai, whether it is in this industry or in the related food industry to find a new job, it is not difficult to apply for a manager or production minister, but it is also difficult to have room for growth.

Related industries in the country have been

The development is relatively mature, and has entered the stage of big fish eating small fish, the internal management structure of large enterprises is almost stable, but the managers of small enterprises are facing the crisis of being eliminated at any time.

Cao Mo's side is probably his best, and he is one of the few opportunities to have room for growth.

An annual salary of 200,000 plus 2% equity is in line with his expectations, and even if he readily agrees.

Cao Mo knew that Guo Donghu intended to sell miserably in front of him, and he should be hungry, seeing that there were only beer, boiled peanuts, duck tongue and other snacks on the table, he beckoned the waiter to come over, and took 100 yuan to ask him to help buy some lamb skewers and a grilled fish......

When Cao Mo came home, he saw his father wearing a pair of glasses, sitting in the living room with Jiaying holding a pen and paper and calculating something, yawning and asking, "What are you doing, you haven't slept so late?"

"The Wood Elephant's accounts for April are going to be sorted out, you can also take a look!" Cao Xiong said, "It's been more than ten days since you came back, and you can't see your figure all day, what are you busy with?"

"I'm busy forming a private army, and you don't believe it. Cao Mo said.

"Believe it or not, I smoke you with something, and I don't have a straight shape when I speak. Cao Xiong picked up the water cup on the coffee table and made a gesture to splash it.

"Alas, I'm your investor, give me some respect—it's annoying me, but I'm going to withdraw my investment!" Cao Mo flashed to the side and said with a smile.

"Do you remember that you are an investor, and you don't care about business except for eating and drinking?" Cao Xiong asked angrily.

"This little investment, I ......" Cao Mo saw that his father really wanted to splash the water, so he sat over in a regular manner, and said with a hippie smile, "Don't I trust your ability......?

"Brother, you just owe it to clean up. Jiaying leaned over and said with a smile.

"You don't have to go to class tomorrow, why don't you sleep late?" Cao Mo asked.

"Tomorrow our school will also have a May Day holiday!Doesn't your company have a holiday?" Jia Ying stared at Cao Mo in surprise.

"We overseas employees, the holidays are the same as the local ones, different from the domestic ones, I didn't even think of this. He also plans to take Xiao Jun and Guo Donghu back to Kanem in the next two days, and then wait for Stari to make arrangements before leaving for Benin.

Cao Mo pretended to pick up the report, he hadn't paid too much attention to the development of the Wood Elephant B&B before, Jiaying would send some information to him from time to time, he mainly just admired the pictures of the internal and external layout, and didn't have the energy to pay too much attention.

Wood Elephant B&B has been in operation for three months.

Although there is still a very big gap between the domestic economy and Europe and the United States, as the most prosperous first-tier city, the individual tourism of leisure and vacation has a considerable scale.

At present, as one of the few high-end B&Bs in Xinhai, Muxiang B&B is mainly used to do some low-cost promotion on tourism and city forums, and the effect is very good.

However, the number of rooms in the Wood Elephant B&B is still too small, even if there is already a 60% occupancy rate, and the occupancy rate of a total of 50 long-term and short-term rental apartments is maintained at 80%, but it is still limited by the scale, and the current profit is very limited.

That's pretty good already.

As far as Chen Rong's idea is concerned, it is necessary to establish a staff team first, and the personnel expenses are relatively high, and the marketing promotion in the early stage is also much higher than that of other homestays.

To put it bluntly, Chen Rong just wants to establish the business model first, build the brand, and then make further additional investment, expand the scale, reduce the marginal cost, and make a profit.

Of course, a conservative approach is to cut unnecessary costs and generate stable returns, but this is obviously not an option they will make.

Cao Mo probably looked at the report, he could also clarify what Chen Rong's thinking was, there was no place for him to point fingers, put the report back on the coffee table, and said to his father: "I have cared, can I go upstairs to sleep?"

"That's what you've cared about, don't you make some suggestions?" Cao Xiong asked.

"Chen Rong is a staff officer for you, what advice can I make?" Cao Mo asked.

"I also have a staff officer," Jia Ying invited Gongdao, "I go to the forum to do publicity, my dad doesn't know how to do it, or I'm teaching him - I made the promotional pictures and slogans, and I saved my dad money for the old nose - he was responsible for posting, and he was reluctant to hire a marketing specialist." ”

"It's better to save some money now!" Cao Mo said.

It's not that he is really reluctant to spend money, but mainly thinks that the more miscellaneous things his father is doing now, the more thoroughly he can understand the industry - gold mining, cement plant from construction to operation, he does it little by little, to excavate, and he feels very profound, Xie Sipeng and Yang Deshan They don't need to do this, they have accumulated enough in the first 20 years.

"Chen Rong means that now that it is barely successful, the next step should be to consider scaling up......," Cao Xiong said.

"Okay, let's make additional investments. In addition to my salary, I also do some private work in Kanem, and there are still some small extras, Chen Rong said how much additional investment should I make next?" Cao Mo asked.

"Chen Rong didn't say how much it increased, I have been thinking about this industry for four or five months, and I have found some ways, and I am thinking about whether to take a house loan ......," Cao Xiong said.

"Don't want me to invest more, you just got the mortgage on the house, why don't you let me sleep?" Cao Mo said with a yawn.

"There will definitely be risks in doing business, and this house will be left to you or Jiaying in the future, so I have to ask your opinion - if you think the risk is too great, Muxiang Private will operate for another year or two, and then expand the scale after some real accumulation, it will be too late." Cao Xiong said.

Cao Mo was convinced that this was Chen Rong's idea at this time.

took the mortgage of his house to inject capital, so that his father was officially one of the funders of the Wooden Elephant B&B in addition to the previous agreement of 10% of the management equity - Chen Rong was very thoughtful for her old lover.

The problem is that the market value of his house is about 3 million, and even if a bank is willing to lend, it will have to be discounted by 6%, which seems to be a little less, right?

In other words, Chen Rong still calculates his father's investment based on the initial investment, and then will officially do the second round of financing at a market-oriented valuation.

In this way, as long as his father takes 1.5 million yuan and his initial capital contribution of 500,000 yuan, he can account for 50% of the shares of Muxiang B&B, which is enough.

When the official second round of capital increase invites other investors to participate, the equity valuation will not be calculated in this way......
