Chapter 1142: Pricing
The oral liquid factory is the last stop of Xiao Ping's inspection of the company, and after coming out of the factory, he will not return to the company before the Spring Festival. Of course, this does not mean that Xiao Ping can go back to the farm and wait for the New Year with peace of mind, in addition to official business, there are many private things to do before the year.
According to the rules of previous years, Xiao Ping had to pay respects to his elders and friends before the year. For example, Old Man Qiao, Song Lei's parents, Zhang Guoquan, Li Wanqing's brother and sister-in-law, Wen Ziping, the former landlord Wang Fang, Zhou Jun's parents' house, etc., all had to be visited one by one before the year.
After paying his early respects to the elders and friends who lived nearby, Xiao Ping took a private jet to the capital to pay New Year's greetings to several elders there.
Xiao Ping first went to pay homage to Lei An, who had the best personal friend, in his early years, and then pretended to go to General Wang to check his body, and then went to Zizhuyuan to apply to meet Chen Lao.
As Chen's personal health care physician, Xiao Ping's applications are always approved first. This time, he only waited for two years before he got the opportunity to meet with Chen Lao.
Because this time I came to visit Chen Lao in his early years, of course, the New Year's goods are indispensable. So Xiao Ping, like a few times, came to Zizhuyuan with a large bag and a small bag.
To be honest, the armed police soldiers guarding Zizhu Garden are already very familiar with Xiao Ping, and only when he comes to Zizhu Garden, he will bring all kinds of things that others can't think of. What vegetables, aquatic products, rice, this time I even brought a small oak barrel!
Xiao Ping explained to the armed police soldiers who inspected him that the barrels contained his own wine. Because the Chinese New Year is coming, I sent some to Chen Lao to try.
This made the armed police soldiers a little embarrassed. If you want to say that you are not allowed to enter, Xiao Ping is also a frequent visitor to Zizhuyuan. It seems a little impersonal. But if you really let him in, it doesn't seem to be in line with the safety regulations. What if something goes wrong?
Long Wu, who finally heard the news, decided to let Xiao Ping go in to see Chen Lao first. As for the New Year's goods he brought, they could only be sent in for Chen Lao to see after a thorough inspection.
Xiao Ping has no opinion on such an arrangement, in fact, he came to pay New Year's greetings to express his heart. To put it bluntly, Chen Lao is not short of these things, as long as Xiao Ping's mind arrives, even if Chen Lao does not receive these things, it is not a big problem.
The climate in the capital around the Spring Festival was cold, and Chen Lao met Xiao Ping in the sun room of the small villa. Although he will be a year older in a few days, the old man is in good spirits and in good health, and he can't tell that he is an old man of this age.
I saw Xiao Ping come in. Chen Lao said to him with a smile: "Boy, I heard that you have caused trouble to the armed police soldiers at the door again?"
"Hehe, do you know what to do?" Xiao Ping smiled embarrassedly: "I just wanted to bring you some New Year's goods, but I didn't expect to embarrass the armed police soldiers." ”
Chen Lao nodded and said, "Don't blame them, it's all their duty." ”
Xiao Ping hurriedly said: "Do I seem to be such an ignorant person, how can I blame them." ”
Chen Lao chatted casually with Xiao Ping, and quickly turned to the topic: "It won't be long before the Spring Festival is about to reach the rice sowing season, and you promised me 300,000 mu of rice seeds......"
Without waiting for Xiao Ping to finish speaking, Xiao Ping had already said confidently: "You can rest assured that I will do something." The rice seeds are already in the warehouse of the seed base, enough to sow 300,000 mu, and only a little more!"
Old Chen nodded with satisfaction: "Well, that's good." With these 300,000 mu of rice as a foundation, it will be more certain to popularize it in all rice planting areas in the future. By the way, the quality of the seeds is fine, right?"
"You can rest assured of this. Xiao Ping patted his chest and packed the ticket: "All the seeds come from a few of my seed bases. After strict selection, the germination rate and future yield are absolutely guaranteed. It certainly won't be worse than the ones I gave you. ”
Chen Lao Zhilu said that although Xiao Ping, a young man, sometimes likes to joke, he is still very reliable. I've never let myself down when it comes to business. So after listening to Xiao Ping's assurance, he also nodded slightly and said, "That's fine, what about the price, has it been set?"
To be honest, Xiao Ping really didn't think about what price the rice seeds should be sold for. But since Old Chen had already asked, Xiao Ping couldn't help but answer. He quickly calculated it in his heart, and then said tentatively: "I won't tell you, I have invested a lot in cultivating these seeds, and you can't let me lose money, right?"
Chen Lao pointed at Xiao Ping and scolded with a smile: "I know that a capitalist like you will do anything for profit, don't pretend to be pitiful in front of me, hurry up and quote a real price!"
Xiao Ping smiled: "I want to ...... The price is 30 percent higher than that of ordinary grains, so the vast number of grain farmers should be able to accept it, right?"
This price is the lowest price that Xiao Ping has just calculated in his heart, which can guarantee a profit. After all, most of the grain provided this time was purchased by him from Japan. The price of rice in Japan is already more expensive than in Japan, and it is even more expensive when you add the cost of transportation and storage. If it's below that, there's not much profit.
Of course, this is only for this batch of grains. In the future, after Xiao Ping achieves the goal of planting all grain varieties by himself, the cost will be greatly reduced, and the profit will naturally become higher.
Hearing Xiao Ping quote this price, Chen Lao also pondered for a moment, and then nodded lightly: "If the quality of the grain is the same as before, this price is also acceptable." However, compared with ordinary grains, your price is still much higher, and I am afraid that you will encounter a lot of resistance in the early stage of promotion. ”
Xiao Ping shrugged indifferently and said, "It's okay, we try our best to explain the advantages of the new grain varieties to grain farmers, and I believe they should be able to make the right choice." In addition, the company will set up a trust fund. If, under normal cropping conditions, the grain does not perform as well as we described, the money from this fund will be used to compensate the grain farmers for their losses. I believe that this will allow many people to dispel their worries and buy our grains. ”
Chen Lao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, your method is very good, it can dispel the doubts of grain farmers very well, not bad!"
Being able to get a "good" evaluation from Chen Lao is enough to make Xiao Ping proud. At this time, Long Wu came in and reported to Elder Chen, saying that the things brought by Xiao Ping had been checked and there was no problem at all.
Maybe it's because Xiao Ping has already prepared the grain, but Chen Lao is in a very good mood at the moment, and he said with a smile: "Since you have checked it, let's bring everything in, and see what good things Xiao has brought to me, an old man." (To be continued......)
