Chapter 142: Yesterday's Everything
Zhao Siniang guessed for a while, and when she thought that her brain hurt, she couldn't guess Old Man Zhao's sinister intentions.
If you can't guess, don't guess! Anyway, he will leave soon, and no matter how beautiful the pit is, Old Man Zhao will not have a chance to coax Zhao Yongzhong to jump inside.
Thinking of this, Zhao Siniang calmed down, and saw that there was no reminder from herself, Zhao Yongzhong's sycophant was also very good. So Zhao Siniang left the Jiang family in a hurry and devoted herself to her career wholeheartedly.
Zhao's shop has been handed over to the Jiang family a few days ago, although the name of the store is still called Zhao's shop, but the division of the two has been the original Zhao family's seven Jiang family's three upside down, becoming the Jiang family's seven Zhao family's three. Seeing that the net profit was suddenly reduced by forty percent, Zhao Siniang, who was "only for profit", of course would not spend too much effort in Zhao's shop.
Today, Zhao Siniang spends her days in duck farms and workshops, just to check again before leaving to see if there are any management loopholes in these two places that she has not yet discovered.
The duck farm is okay, as long as you work diligently, with enough care and patience, you can manage it well.
As I said before, according to Zhao Siniang's long-term observation, the Liu family is fully competent. Even not long ago, this diligent family also used the gap between duck raising to successfully explore the technology of hatching ducklings, and now Zhao Siniang's duck farm no longer needs to purchase duck seedlings, reducing a lot of costs. In addition, taking care of the duck farm is a family, and there is no major contradiction in the work. As a result, the duck farm has been operating steadily.
However, the situation in the workshop is much more complicated, and the first issue is confidentiality.
As mentioned before, in order to prevent the secret recipe from being leaked, Zhao Siniang bought Huang Sanshui's family, and in order for the Huang family to concentrate on doing things for herself, she even redeemed the two sons of the Huang family at a high price. The high investment really brought high returns, and since then, Huang Sanshui's family has worked diligently, and is always on guard against the idea of others playing secret recipes.
If the scale of the workshop stops there, it is not a big problem. But with the platform of Su Ji, all kinds of pickles, soy products and salted duck eggs produced by Zhao Siniang's family have gradually been promoted in Jinghai County. It is no exaggeration to say. Now the workshop receives orders every day, and the production speed cannot keep up with the order speed.
In this case, Zhao Siniang certainly wanted to expand the scale of the workshop. So she added a factory next to the workshop, and even added more than a dozen staff dormitories. But these hardware facilities are easy to say. The most important human resources have been delayed.
After all, the technical content of food processing is not high, and once an insider leaks the production process, these exclusive products will be reduced to street goods, so Zhao Siniang insists on only using workers who have signed a death contract with themselves in the workshop.
However, the reality is that Mr. Jiang, a local who knows the roots, will not let him sign. Most of the people who come to the door to ask for a signature are outsiders who don't know the roots.
After repeated selection, the cautious Zhao Siniang succeeded the Huang family, and only signed two families who were introduced by acquaintances. One is a fellow villager of the Huang family on the north bank, and the other is a villager from Gaodian Village on the south bank.
It is true that on the whole, the south bank is better off than the north bank, but there are also many families who sell their children and daughters, and this is the case with the Song family in Gaodian Village. This family was desperate, and begged to come to the door through the Jiang family's in-laws. Seeing Zhao Siniang's hesitation, his family even pulled a distant relative, the Song family, to intercede. After several twists and turns, he was successfully sold into Zhao Siniang's family.
The huge workshop relies on three families to work. It's not very effective. In addition, the biggest reason why these three families will take the initiative to sell themselves into slavery is that there are too many old and weak families and they cannot afford to make ends meet. It is conceivable that the working-class population of the three schools is extremely limited, and it is completely insufficient to meet the production requirements of the workshops.
Lower the requirements and recruit more casually? No, Zhao Siniang didn't dare to take risks.
As a result, the new plant has been completed for some time, and the scale of the workshop is still stagnant.
"Siniang. When you find the right candidates, I'm afraid that the daylilies will be cold. Like you said, 'make money early'. If you drag it out any longer, no one else will have to take a secret recipe from you. I figured it out directly. The town's pastry shop was forced to close early, and even had no place to live, and the homeless Zhao Yuanniang's mother and daughter had to move into the staff dormitory behind the workshop. At this time, Zhao Yuanniang saw Zhao Siniang's cat frowning in the backyard of the workshop, and couldn't help but persuade her.
"How can it be so exaggerated!" Zhao Siniang said so, but she was also drumming in her heart, and she knew that she really couldn't drag it out any longer. It's just that. She also has her concerns......
"Siniang, don't look ahead and backward! Well, even if you are careless in recruiting people and leak the process, so that the opponent can understand the general method, but the most critical formula is not always in your hands? For example, as long as you know the process, anyone can make bean curd from tofu. But I dare to say that other families will never be able to make the taste of our spiced bean curd. In the final analysis, stealing teachers can only learn form, not God. Zhao Yuanniang continued to persuade.
"It's not good to have bean curd, the salted duck eggs ......," Zhao Siniang frowned.
"Heh, Siniang, is it necessary to bother to think about how to keep it secret for that kind of thing that can be learned as soon as you learn it? Not worth it! Secrecy, only the real secret recipe is worth secrecy. Speaking of this, Zhao Yuanniang pursed her lips and said angrily: "Only some people who have never seen the world will stare at this kind of easy-to-understand formula without moving." Siniang, you are different, you must not waste food because of swallowing. ”
After listening to Zhao Yuanniang's words, Zhao Siniang suddenly felt enlightened.
It is true that everyone hopes to find the perfect solution, but in reality it is often not satisfactory. That's what the phrase "all the best" is like – often on the lips but never happening.
I wanted to get everything before, but I almost got nothing.
Don't be too greedy in everything, you must know that there is a give-and-take.
Actually, does Zhao Siniang really not understand this truth? I'm afraid not. When Zhao's shop first opened, she also had trouble with this, but after the persuasion of her family, she quickly let go of her worries.
So why did she struggle with the same problem again? Out of greed, I'm afraid. When Zhao's shop first opened, there was only a small grass shed, and no matter how well it was done, the profit was extremely limited, and Zhao Siniang naturally didn't take those recipes too seriously. Although the workshop has not yet been fully opened, it is foreseeable that a small recipe will bring huge benefits, and the profit-heavy Zhao Siniang is never willing to give up any of them, so he has entered a dead end.
Without further ado, as soon as Zhao Siniang figured it out, she decided to start recruiting.
Indeed, locals who know the roots are not suitable for signing a death deed, so if you work around, you can sign a living deed! Although there is no guarantee of a death deed, in the eyes of Zhao Siniang, who is no longer obsessed with secrecy, the hard-working and simple Jiangjiatan villagers are undoubtedly the best candidates.
Once the selection of workers is settled, everything else will be easy to do. However, with a cup of tea, Zhao Siniang typed the draft of the recruitment plan.
However, the plan came out, and Zhao Siniang, who was anxious to make money, did not immediately implement it this time, but pulled Zhao Yuanniang and said with a smile: "Sister Yuanniang, I heard that a matchmaker came to propose marriage today, and Siniang is here to say hello to my sister!" ”
Zhao Yuanniang, who has always been calm, was anxious when she heard this, and hurriedly explained: "It's not for me, it's for my mother, my mother!" ”
Zhao Siniang blinked, and said in her heart that she was really not funny. However, she saw that Zhao Yuanniang's eyes were red when she was so anxious, so she put away her look of watching the show, and said: "Because I want to order meat for our shop, I have also contacted Fei Hong a few times. To be honest, I have a pretty good impression of him. Of course, you can't just look at the surface when you look at people, I'll ask the shopkeeper to inquire later. In my opinion, if this person is really good, he should quickly settle the matter, and it can be regarded as finding a good home for your mother. ”
"There's no rush for now." Seeing that Zhao Siniang still wanted to persuade again, Zhao Yuanniang hurriedly waved her hand and explained: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not against my mother's remarriage - just something like Xiao Yongye is worth my mother's life for him?"
"I might as well tell you, I'm afraid that my mother won't be able to let go of that thing, so I've long thought about marrying my mother off before he dies. In this way, no matter what I have or not, anyway, I will cut off my mother's thoughts and let her say goodbye to yesterday completely!
"As for this candidate, I already have a suitable one in my heart, and I looked coldly at that person who was also interested in my mother, but he never spoke...... Uncle Jiang! ”
Zhao Siniang saw that Zhao Yuanniang suddenly looked at the courtyard gate in surprise, and hurriedly looked back, only to see Jiang Baosheng standing on the threshold with a sluggish expression. (To be continued.) )
