Chapter 223: Finding a Market

Since the credit union's loan of 3 million yuan was credited to the farm's account, the farm has officially begun to expand and develop. The farm has expanded two hatcheries and purchased two very advanced fully automatic coal and electricity incubators, with an incubation capacity of 200,000 eggs per cycle, and more than 200 farmers have signed cooperation agreements with the farm.

The development of the whole farm can be described by the words "prosperous".

After Huang Deyu's research and calculation, 200 cooperative households are currently the most suitable for the development of the scale of the farm, and it is not easy to continue to expand the scale at a high speed for the time being, and the top priority is to find a market for these products of the farm.

Since the establishment of the farm, the farm has been investing, and the hatched chicks and eggs produced by the chicks are only in the internal circulation with the cooperative households, and have not seen any profits, and now it is time to start seeking profits.

Originally, Chen Qingdong always thought that if he could contact Xu Yuanyuan's cousin, who was a middle-level leader in Longwan Red Star Department Store, and open a sales channel in the famous Red Star Department Store, then he would not have to worry about sales.

However, with the development of the farm, the number of cooperative households exceeded expectations, but Chen Qingdong gradually found that the original sales idea needed to be adjusted.

In the past, Chen Qingdong thought that the farm needed to sell eggs, so through the carrier of Red Star Department Store, it might have a good effect.

But now, because the number of cooperatives has exceeded expectations, and there are more cooperatives who want to sign contracts with the farms, and the original cooperatives have taken the chicks from the farms, the cycle of raising and laying eggs is longer, and the eggs produced are not enough for the farms to use themselves.

And the incubator of the farm they will not stop, so they even need to buy eggs from outside, and Huang Deyu this time resolutely disagrees with their rapid expansion of the number of cooperative households, can only be gradual on the basis of 200 households, otherwise once the market is out of control, I am afraid it will be catastrophic.

The chicks in the hatchery are still hatching in a steady stream, and they can't all be handed over to the cooperative households, so they need to find an outside market to sell the chicks.

In addition, the price of selling chicks to the outside world is much higher than the profit of selling eggs, which strengthens their determination to sell chicks.

After determining this sales idea, the farm recruited a few more sales employees and put them out to be responsible for finding a market and selling their chicks.

Among these newly recruited sales employees, there is also a special person, that is, when the farm was requisitioned for the construction of the factory, he was unwilling to rent his land to the farm, which caused them a big problem, and finally found a further education index for his daughter, so that he agreed to rent the land to Liu Zhaolin, the "nail household" of the farm.

However, this Liu Zhaolin worked in the county supply and marketing cooperatives for many years when he was young, and he can be regarded as a person who has seen the world, and he can speak well, and he seems to be a good sales talent.

Moreover, since Chen Qingdong found an indicator for his daughter Liu Wenjuan to go to Longwan Municipal Hospital for further study through Gao Kun, Liu Zhaolin has taken a very good attitude towards Chen Qingdong and them.

In line with the idea of making the best use of their talents, Chen Qingdong and the others also decisively accepted Liu Zhaolin and asked him to run the market. In addition to the basic salary, he is also given a commission according to sales.

It's just that after adjusting the sales idea to selling chicken seedlings, Chen Qingdong felt that it might not make much sense to go to Longwan to find Xu Yuanyuan's cousin now.

Originally, Chen Qingdong was not too sure whether the Red Star Department Store was suitable for selling their breeding products, but at that time, Chen Qingdong was also ready to sell breeding eggs, meat eggs and meat chickens through the Red Star Department Store, but now if it is just selling chicken seedlings, I am afraid that the Red Star Department Store will not be of much help.

Although Chen Qingdong knew that the Red Star Department Store later conformed to the trend of state-owned enterprise reform of "national retreat and democratic advancement", carried out privatization reform, and after privatization, rapidly developed a sub-brand - Yijia Supermarket, and opened more than 20 branches in major cities in Huaihai Province in just two or three years, grabbing market share and becoming the top three supermarket chains in Huaihai Province in terms of annual sales.

However, after all, the popularity of Yijia supermarket will come in a few years, and the far water can not save the near fire, and the current farm is in urgent need of finding buyers for the chicks, in fact, it is impossible to count on the Red Star Department Store.

However, after some consideration, Chen Qingdong felt that even if he couldn't count on the Red Star Department Store now, he would go to Longwan and get acquainted with her cousin Xu Wei through Xu Yuanyuan's relationship, and it would be better to even make a friend, after all, Xu Wei is also the middle-level leader of the Longwan Red Star Department Store, and he may be promoted again in the future, so if he has a relationship with Xu Wei now, maybe when he will be able to use her, this can be regarded as a rainy day.

In addition, Xu Yuanyuan no longer comes to work in Shuangshan Town, although before the National Day last year, there was a period of time when the relationship between the two of them was not bad, and they went to Linshuiyuan Farmhouse to fish and drink together, and even when they drank too much, they almost had an intimate relationship, but after all, he and Xu Yuanyuan have known each other for a short time, and they do not have too deep feelings for each other. Now that Xu Yuanyuan doesn't come to work in Shuangshan, then the opportunity for the two to get in touch in the future is almost gone, if after a while, the relationship is more indifferent, I'm afraid that if you want to contact her cousin through Xu Yuanyuan, Xu Yuanyuan may not be willing to be introduced.

So Chen Qingdong finally decided to go to Longwan to meet Xu Yuanyuan, and at the same time visit Xu Yuanyuan's cousin, anyway, this can't delay much effort.

After making up his mind, Chen Qingdong told his eldest brother Chen Hongbing and Zheng Hongtao about his idea, both of them supported Chen Qingdong to go to Longwan, and Zheng Hongtao also specially asked the finance to prepare 20,000 yuan for Chen Qingdong as his expenses for this activity.

Since the credit cooperative's 3 million loan arrived, Chen Qingdong obviously felt that the eldest brother and Hong Tao were a little "wealthy", in addition to buying clothes, electrical appliances and other small things, they also discussed taking out 150,000 yuan to buy a brand-new Santana car, although in Chen Qingdong's view, the farm is currently in the entrepreneurial stage, and the car is really dispensable.

However, Chen Qingdong didn't say anything about these things, he knew very well that although the two elder brothers were not poor over the years, they really didn't enjoy the feeling of being rich.

Now, there is suddenly such a large amount of money in the account, although it is a bank loan, but the mentality of the two of them can be understood with a slight change.

Moreover, Chen Hongbing and Zheng Hongtao account for the vast majority of the shares in this farm, and how they want to spend the money of the farm is indeed their freedom.

Therefore, for these things, Chen Qingdong regarded as not seeing them, and would never say a word.

Before going to Longwan, Chen Qingdong went to the farm to discuss with his two elder brothers, and once again reported to the county about applying for special development funds.

Although the farm is not short of money now, but the special development funds formulated by the county, do not apply for nothing, as long as the funds can be applied for, then even if it is the support given by the county, there is no need to pay it back, even if it can only apply for 350,000 yuan, it is the same as picking up in vain, and it is resolutely not allowed to give up.

Previously, Chen Qingdong made a special report to Wei Hailong about this matter, hoping that the town could come forward to help coordinate this matter.

Maybe it was during the Spring Festival, Chen Qingdong had a meal at Wei Hailong's house when those things happened, this time Wei Hailong said with a very good attitude, he must help the green field farm to win this support fund, and even said that it can get this fund, not only the green field farm itself, but also the honor of Shuangshan Town.

Wei Hailong also told Chen Qingdong that he would personally go to Secretary Xu of the county party committee and County Magistrate Cheng to report the matter, and at the same time, the Green Field Farm would also make another report.

In the end, Wei Hailong told Chen Qingdong that the hope of the Green Field Farm to win this support fund is still very high.

Wei Hailong's statement made Chen Qingdong very happy, so he came to the farm before going to Longwan and asked his brother to write out the report and hand it in.

In the office, after Chen Qingdong told his two brothers about it, Chen Hongbing and Zheng Hongtao were also very happy, and Chen Hongbing said: "Qingdong, we really don't want this money in vain." I also inquired, after the county called for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry industry, the scale and development momentum of our farms can be among the best in the agriculture and animal husbandry industry in our county's townships and towns. ”

Zheng Hongtao also said: "Yes, let's write a report and hand it in first, what materials he asks us to prepare, we will prepare whatever materials, as long as the distribution of this money is not too dark, we should be able to get it." ”

The three brothers were still discussing the matter enthusiastically in the office when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in. Chen Hongbing said.

The door was slowly opened, and then a middle-aged man with a flattering smile on his face showed his head, but he didn't walk in, stood at the door and said, "Qingdong, you're here." ”

Seeing this person, Chen Qingdong couldn't help but smile faintly.

This person is none other than Lao Zhu, the former chef of the canteen in Shuangshan Town, who makes a good steaming bowl.

When Secretary Xu Minglei came to Shuangshan Town to inspect last year, he had a meal in the canteen of Shuangshan Town, which was a steaming bowl made by Chef Lao Zhu, but it was not that Lao Zhu was too anxious, or he was careless, and he was accidentally mixed with a cooked bedbug in the steaming bowl of Zhang Li, deputy director of the Water Conservancy Bureau!

And Zhang Li didn't hold back on the spot, vomited, and at the same time, Xu Minglei also saw the bedbugs in Zhang Li's steaming bowl, although Xu Minglei was of very high quality and didn't say anything on the spot, but he didn't eat much of this meal.

After Xu Minglei left Shuangshan Town, the furious Wei Hailong immediately called Lao Zhu to the office, criticized him fiercely, and told him to get out of the house immediately!

After that, Lao Zhu Tuoren begged Xu Minglei several times and wanted to go back to work, but the hard-hearted Wei Hailong resolutely disagreed.

Lao Zhu, who lost his job, stayed at home for a while, but he couldn't find a job, so he found Xie Wenhai, who was related to him, and begged Xie Wenhai to arrange a job for him in the farm.

At this time, with the development and growth of the farm, there are more and more employees, in order to facilitate the eating of these workers, Chen Qingdong proposed to build a canteen in the farm, and then recruit a chef to cook for these employees, so that the workers can eat here for free, which is also a kind of welfare.

After Chen Hongbing and Zheng Hongtao agreed to this matter, Chen Hongbing taught Xie Wenhai to do it.

Xie Wenhai didn't know that Lao Zhu had offended Chen Qingdong before, and he felt that Lao Zhu's craftsmanship was good, and he was also related to him, so he recommended Lao Zhu to Chen Qingdong.

Lao Zhu knew that he had offended Chen Qingdong before, so he specially found Chen Qingdong to apologize, saying that he was really blind at the beginning, so he sent Chen Qingdong to kneel and kowtow.

Although Chen Qingdong was very angry with Lao Zhu at the time, but now seeing Lao Zhu's pitiful appearance, he is also in his forties, for the sake of a chef's work, he is so low to himself, Chen Qingdong is a little soft-hearted, and he is not willing to see him in general, and agrees to let him be the chef of the Green Field Farm.

Since then, every time Chen Qingdong comes to the farm, as long as Lao Zhu gets the news, he will immediately find Chen Qingdong to be courteous and take out all his skills to prepare a meal for Chen Qingdong.

Seeing Lao Zhu coming to the office today, Chen Qingdong thought to himself that Lao Zhu must still be here for this matter.

Facing Lao Zhu's smiling face full of courtesy, Chen Qingdong also felt from the bottom of his heart the sadness that a little person could not control his own destiny, and in order to get something to eat, he had to trample his dignity under his feet as a piece of mud.

"Master Zhu, what's the matter?" Chen Qingdong asked politely.

"Hehe, it's nothing. Lao Zhu stood at the door and said, didn't come in, smiled a little, and asked, "Just now Lao Meng sent half a black pig, the meat is very good, I just want to ask, do you want to eat pork ribs steamed bowl at noon, or pork belly steamed bowl." ”

Chen Qingdong knew that this was the case, so he asked Chen Hongbing and Zheng Hongtao: "What do you want to eat?" ”

"I don't care. Chen Hongbing said.

"Let's have ribs, then. Zheng Hongtao said.

"Okay, I want to eat ribs too. Chen Qingdong also said.

"Okay! Steamed pork ribs! I must have done a good job!" Lao Zhu said happily, and then gently closed the office door for them and withdrew.

Chen Qingdong put out the cigarette butt in his hand in the ashtray, and said helplessly: "This old Zhu ......"
