Chapter 65: This business model is too messy, isn't it?

"There are about 5,000 people in the township, 200 yuan a month for one person, and more than 2 million yuan for two months. Yun Weiguo laughed dryly.

"More than two million?" Lu Tenglong was very surprised, "Township Chief Yun, aren't you cheating on me?" It's not that he Lu Tenglong can't afford these two million, the key is that these two million are just used to fill the hole, and there is no income.

"Hey, no, no, Xiao Lu, listen to me tell you. Yun Weiguo waved his hand again and again, and hurriedly explained to Lu Tenglong, "Our current backlog of bamboo products inventory is probably worth more than two million, and there are also factories, warehouses, and some equipment, all of which are given to you together, and your boss will not lose." ”

"Township Chief Yun, don't frame me, things like bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, and bamboo baskets are only two or three yuan in price, and a few cents a piece is cheap, worth more than two million, so how much?" Lu Tenglong was a little disapproving.

"Xiao Lu, you don't know, the weaving skills of our township are not said. These bamboo handicrafts are the best in the nearby villages. For example, a bamboo basket and a bamboo basket are sold for five or six pieces, and a bamboo strip and bamboo sieve are also two or three pieces. This is still the wholesale purchase price. Yun Weiguo seems to be quite impressive when he talks about this, "And we not only make bamboo baskets, bamboo strips, bamboo baskets, bamboo sieves and other commonly used farm tools, but also bamboo wind chimes, bamboo flowing water, these ornamental items, and even bamboo chairs and bamboo beds." ”

"Then I want to go and see first, okay?" Lu Tenglong was not busy making a statement. It's only two million, if it's really like what Township Chief Yun said, then he can call the shots.

"Of course, of course. Yun Weiguo nodded again and again, he was worried about this during this time, and he was about to get sick, "County Magistrate Qi will also come to inspect it together?"

"Lead the way. Qi Ming nodded.

After transferring a jeep from the township, Yun Weiguo looked at the three people who had already sat in the back seat of Shi Shiran, and could only silently get into the co-pilot.

Finally, the road in the township is passable, not as bumpy as the road that came before, and He Huanyu, who jumped out of the car, was not as uncomfortable as before.

"County Magistrate Qi, Xiao Lu, come and see, this is the warehouse where we have stock. Yun Weiguo got out of the jeep and pointed to two wide bungalows not far away.

"If you are a bamboo product, you should pay attention to fire prevention. Qi Ming squinted at the warehouse not far away and reminded him loudly.

"Well, as we know, open fires are strictly forbidden around the storeroom, not even smoking. Yun Weiguo nodded, "Everyone is living on these meals, if there is a fire, the loss is unacceptable." ”

"Why is there only a warehouse, but what about the factory?" Lu Tenglong asked with a little curiosity.

"Hey, this kind of bamboo handicraft production is all handmade, where do you need a factory," Yun Weiguo shook his head with a smile, pointed to the col not far away, and said, "There is a big open space over there, and on a sunny day, everyone will gather over there to work and chat about some parents' shortcomings. ”

As he spoke, Yun Weiguo pointed to the warehouse again, "Actually, our factory says it is a factory, but the wages are all piecework." In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to collect their own handicrafts from the villagers at a low price and sell them in a centralized manner, giving everyone an additional source of income. ”

Saying that, Yun Weiguo stretched out a hand and pointed to the village not far away with smoke, "In fact, the rest of the village are some old and weak women and children, and the young and strong labor force has basically gone out to work. The older generation of people finished the one-third of an acre of land at home, and they were idle, so they sat at home and made a few baskets and sent them to us, and there were several yuan, several yuan a day, and they could increase their income by thousands of yuan a year. In our case, there are thousands of dollars a year, which is really a lot. ”

"There are also those big girls and little daughters-in-law, who can take care of the elderly and make more entries. They are skillful with their own hands, and the knick-knacks they weave are delicate and beautiful. Like bamboo wind chimes, bamboo dolls, and all kinds of ornaments made of bamboo, they all made them. The same sells for more than ten or twenty yuan, and there are even hundreds of expensive ones. ”

"So the so-called wages you said you owed before are actually the money you collected but haven't settled yet. Lu Tenglong asked.

"Well, that's right. Every time they send these handicrafts, we will keep an account, and we will not settle it in cash, usually in a month or two when the products are sold in a centralized manner. But this time, the wholesale market we cooperated with went bankrupt and closed down, our products could not be sold, and they had been backlogged here, and the warehouses were almost full, but they could not be cashed out, and there was no way to settle the arrears of those villagers. Yun Weiguo sighed, very melancholy, "That's why I'm in a hurry to find a way to repair the road in the county and see if I can send the goods out." ”

"Township Chief Yun, to be honest, I'm not very optimistic about your model. Lu Tenglong pondered for a while and spoke, "I understand that you are organizing everyone to do a side business in order to generate income for the villagers." The idea is good, but it's too crude. Let's put it this way, everyone didn't get organized, they all spontaneously made a few baskets, made a few baskets to send to the warehouse, and then booked them back. It feels like...... It's like ......" Lu Tenglong thought for a long time, "It's like recycling waste products in Province G, no matter what you are, I will collect it and pay by the pound." There is no planning at all. For example, if there are merchants in the imperial capital, they fall in love with the bamboo beds in our township. You need to customize a batch of 5,000 bamboo beds, and people give you half a month, can you make it? Because you don't even know what the folks are doing. It's just that they do it spontaneously, and then you charge it at the corresponding price. I say that, Chief Yun, can you understand?"

"Well, I probably know what you mean. Yun Weiguo thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Lu, you want to say that the products we produce in this way are not planned, right?" There's no way around it. Yun Weiguo frowned and sighed, "There are no talents in our township in terms of business management." It took a lot of people to come up with such an idea. And if it weren't for the closure of this wholesale market, we would still be in a very good state. ”

"It's just a short-term phenomenon. Lu Tenglong shook his head, what he has learned in the past half a year is not old or young, "Yunxiang Chief, have you ever thought that bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, bamboo sieves, and even bamboo beds and chairs are not fast-moving products, and it is not a problem for these things to be used in a good quality for one or two years or even three or four years, not to mention that there are other aspects of market competition, this market will be saturated after all." When the market is saturated, and everyone doesn't need these bamboo furniture and agricultural products, where will you sell these products?"

"This ...... I really haven't thought about it. Yun Weiguo's brows furrowed even deeper, "At the beginning, I just thought that these things compiled by everyone would sell better if they were gathered." ”

"You're too messy, Township Chief Yun. Lu Tenglong sighed, "Fortunately, this is not something that requires high investment, otherwise you will be scolded to death by the villagers in the future." ”

"That's not going to happen......" Yun Weiguo raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. "Then Xiao Lu, what do you think this should do?"

"Well, I can't say it well for a while. Lu Tenglong scratched his head, and he was also a little weak, "By the way, Township Chief Yun, didn't you say before that there is still a plant and equipment?"

"Oh, that's the dried and packaged bamboo shoots. Yun Weiguo replied, "However, due to the poor export and poor efficiency, the leaders of the original factory have been transferred, so the factory has been shut down for a long time." ”

"Can you go and have a look?"

"Absolutely. Yun Weiguo replied, "It's just that the factory has been shut down for too long, and I have to find someone to open the door." ”

"Is this factory in the township or private?"

"It's an industry in the township, but if Xiao Lu, your boss is interested, the township can consider joint ventures and mergers and acquisitions. Yun Weiguo's eyes were full of anticipation when he looked at Lu Tenglong.

"Let's go, let's go and see first. Lu Tenglong did not comment.
