Chapter 032: Plans to build a juice factory
When he returned home, Sang Zhiheng told his father what Zhang Hai told him.
The father clicked the cigarette, waited for a long time, and said, "You want to be the boss?" ”
Sang Zhiheng frowned, thought about it seriously, and said, "Dad, I don't want to worry about that." ”
Coming out of the big city, in order to go to the mountain village to ask for freedom and tranquility, and if you go to set up a factory, it will be a bit out of the original intention.
"What do you think?"
"I want to take our orchard as a shareholder and let Zhang Hai be in charge of management, he has experience as a supermarket manager, and there should be no problem with management."
"Okay, Zhiheng, as long as you think about it, your mother and I will fully support you. But there is one thing, you promised to give your brother-in-law a 5% stake in the vineyard, and you have to discuss this with your brother-in-law. ”
Sang Zhiheng nodded and said, "This naturally has to be discussed with my brother-in-law." ”
Wei Youliang is directing the female grape pickers to pick grapes, showing off their might, very similar to Hu Hansan.
At the end of the grape harvest season in April, the grape pickers took a month's break and went to work for the first day.
The female workers are still in the same group as before, and it is not easy to find a boss who pays wages by the day, and no one wants not to come.
When he found Wei Youliang and told him, he was so excited that his face turned red.
Two men stood in the vineyard, surrounded by trellises full of grapes, and a female worker on a high stool nervously picking grapes.
"Great! I said Zhiheng, I said a long time ago that we have to expand the scale, why should we cooperate with them? Can we just do it ourselves? ”
Sang Zhiheng casually picked a big and red grape in front of him, pinched one and put it in his mouth.
"Brother-in-law, you said it easy, if you want to set up a factory, where is it so simple? And in this juice industry, how high do you think the technology content is, basically there is a juicer at home, you can make juice, but why don't you see a few juice factories on the market? The bulk of the investment in the juice factory is the advertising fee, if there is no advertising investment of 320 million yuan, even in our Qilu Province, no one knows about our juice. ”
However, after listening to himself, Wei Youliang was obviously a little unimpressed.
He looked at the female worker who was picking grapes next to him, took Sang Zhiheng's hand and said, "Let's find a place to talk." ”
Then, Sang Zhiheng was pulled out of the vineyard by Wei Youliang and came to a secluded place where no one was.
"Zhiheng, have you noticed what are the characteristics of our grapes and peaches?" Wei Youliang looked at Sang Zhiheng with a mysterious expression.
Sang Zhiheng said that his grapes and peaches taste very good, but the biggest feature is that if you eat it once, you will think about it very much, and if you don't eat it for a long time, you will be restless. This is a bit like drug addiction, that is, your own grapes and peaches will make people addicted to eat.
"You're saying that our fruit is addictive to others?"
Wei Youliang patted his thigh and said, "Yes, I just want to say this." No matter who you are, as long as you eat our grapes and peaches, you will definitely come back to buy them in a few days, why? It's addictive to eating! I have long thought about opening a juice factory, you think about it, a pound of grapes sells for 30 yuan, in addition to labor costs, management fees, etc., we can earn 25 yuan. But what about you going to make juice? A pound of grapes makes 5 pounds of juice, and a pound of juice sells for 30 yuan, and we can earn more than 100 yuan for a pound of grapes. If you make wine, two catties of grapes will produce one catty of wine, and I tell you, the wine made from our grapes is definitely better than Lafite '82! How much does that have to sell for? The taste is so good, and it will be addictive, a pound of wine will cost at least a thousand, in that case, we can earn an extra 500 yuan a pound of grapes! ”
Wei Youliang's eyebrows fluttered, and Sang Zhiheng nodded again and again when he heard it.
"Hearing you say that, we don't just have to go to a juice and drink factory, but also a brewery?"
"Gotta get it!"
Sang Zhiheng pondered for a moment and said: "What Zhang Hai means is that he is willing to invest in the establishment of a juice factory, and then we can invest in the shares, as for the winery, we don't have anyone who understands this business, what if we rush into the horse and lose money?" Besides, how much money is a lot of money, and we can now rely on the income of peach orchards and vineyards to reach more than 10 million. ”
When Wei Youliang heard this, he was a little anxious.
"Zhiheng, why are you still afraid of making more money? Also, if we start a juice factory and a grape winery, we can absorb more labor from several surrounding villages and lead everyone to make money, don't you think that's good? ”
"I think it's a good thing to let everyone make money, but I'm afraid that if the factory is built, the roads are wider, and there are more cars, we will no longer be the Taizi Village we used to be, and the air here will not be fresh, the mountains will not be green, and the water will not be clear. No, you can't build a factory in our place! ”
Wei Youliang rolled his eyes, and hurriedly said: "I didn't say that we would build a factory around our Taizi Village, our Taizi Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the traffic is not convenient, how can it be suitable for building a factory?" Our Gangcheng County has just established a development zone, which is at the junction of Huangzhuang Town and Lixin Town, let's go and talk to the government now, and the government will definitely support it! ”
Listening to Wei Youliang say this, Sang Zhiheng gradually became a little moved.
"Can it work?"
Wei Youliang packed the ticket and said: "It can definitely work!" ”
Sang Zhiheng frowned, looked at the pine and cypress trees all over the mountains and fields on Xuangu Mountain, nodded, and said, "If you can really do it, then this is indeed a good thing!" But if we can't, we won't be able to get up for years! ”
"Zhiheng, you are a young man, why are you still afraid? Are you still afraid of failure when you are young? Zhiheng, how many times are people young? Don't take advantage of your youth to make a career, and you're not afraid of regrets when you're old? ”
was said by his brother-in-law, Sang Zhiheng finally made up his mind, nodded and said, "Okay!" Let's do it! ”
Then, Sang Zhiheng immediately called Zhang Hai. verbally told Zhang Hai about his next step. Then Zhang Hai told him that in a few days, when his friend who was an engineer in the juice factory was free, several people would get together to discuss the matter.
After all, the investment in plant construction in the early stage, the investment in machinery and equipment, the investment in the mid-term recruitment of workers, the operating costs, and the investment in advertising in the later stage are not a small amount.
To put it simply, just talking about advertising investment, it is not a small amount.
Throughout April, Sang Zhiheng earned almost one million yuan by selling Taizi grapes, and then then contracted the peach orchard, sorted out the peach orchard, and repaired the reservoir, spending almost more than 400,000 yuan, and now he has less than 600,000 yuan left in his hands.
And these 600,000 yuan, if you want to build a juice factory, it is simply a fantasy.
However, Sang Zhiheng is such a person, he has never been afraid of difficulties, on the contrary, he likes difficulties a little. The ordinary life is not what he likes, life must be exciting, life must be pursued!
About a week passed, and Zhang Hai suddenly called Sang Zhiheng again.
"Two good news, one bad news, which one to listen to first?" Zhang Hai said jokingly on the phone.
Because two people have known each other for a long time, they don't care about each other so much.
"Hehe, let's hear the bad news first." Sang Zhiheng took the phone and said with a smile.
"The bad news, the bad news is that the friend I know from the juice factory is not willing to do it with us, saying that it is too risky."
Sang Zhiheng shook his head and said: "The risk is indeed too big, the investment is so big, if we don't make it, we may all lie on the ground and not be able to get up in this life." So, what's the good news? ”
"The good news, the good news is that the peaches you grow are particularly popular in the Quancheng market, we have done market research, and 20 yuan a pound is the highest price in terms of income."
Sang Zhiheng picked his nostrils and asked on the phone, "What about the good news?" ”
"Another good news is that I heard that there is a juice factory in Yiyuan County, and the loss is very serious, and the boss wants to change hands."
When Sang Zhiheng heard this, he was obviously a little excited.
"That's the good news, what, where is that juice factory, let's go and see!"
"That's what I mean, where are you now, I'll pick you up in the car!"
"I'm on the mountain, you drive to the road at the head of our village and stop for a while, I'll be waiting for you over there!"
"Good!"
Hanging up the phone, Sang Zhiheng said to his father and Wei Youliang, and hurried down the mountain.
Half an hour later, Zhang Hai drove to Sang Zhiheng.
"Brother Zhang, how did you know that there was a juice factory in Yiyuan County that was going to be sold?"
"Listen to what my friend said, their factory originally planned to take over the factory, but the price was not negotiated, so forget it."
"Oh, didn't your friend tell you how much the other party would cost?"
A company that is about to go bankrupt, what else is there to take over?
In fact, even a company that is about to go bankrupt can dig out a lot of valuable things from it. For example, machinery and equipment, this is a lot cheaper than buying new equipment directly. Also, there are many employees in the company, all of whom are experienced and skilled workers, which is also more cost-effective than re-recruiting workers for training. Also, after years of operation, the company has a certain brand, which is much easier than creating a brand by yourself.
A brand, at least locally, has a large market share.
For example, there is a beer bar, there is Baotu Spring in Quancheng, and there is Guanghan Palace in Yingmu City, although these two brands are not as good as Qingdao Accompanying Wine, but in the local market, that is to say, Baotu Spring is in Quancheng, and Guanghan Palace is in Yingmu City, and even better than Tsingtao Beer.
Yiyuan County is located about 20 kilometers east of Taizi Village, and Zhang Hai and Sang Zhiheng drove less than an hour to the county seat of Yiyuan County.
I inquired all the way and came to the door of a company called Shangougou Juice Factory.
