Chapter 205: Mineral Water

Fortunately, Lai Xiaohu is not a pedantic person, every era has something unique to each era, and what he liked when he was a child, other people may already have something better to replace.

Since he came out to play, of course Lai Xiaohu couldn't always think about these previous things, and with Ivanka and Zhang Ying, he soon joined the crowd of playing.

In the next two days, Lai Xiaohu can finally stop being disturbed by other things, and can take Zhang Ying and Ivanka to have a good time in various places in the new city, and in the middle, he also took the two of them to the commercial city for a day of play, of course, at that time, Liu Yafei could not be notified.

This time I followed Lai Xiaohu here, and in general, Ivanka was still very happy, although it was a little unpleasant on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but the rest of the time was very happy.

On the sixth day of junior high school, Dong Cuiyun needed to go back to Lai Xiaohu's uncle, but Lai Xiaohu couldn't go this time, because on the fifth day of junior high school, he had already taken Zhang Ying and Ivanka on a plane to Jincheng.

The sixth day of junior high school is the time when Lai Xiaohu stipulated the opening of the company before, so he must rush back before the sixth day of junior high school. After going back, Lai Xiaohu first arrived in Hezhuang.

"How? I've got you covered. Pointing to the vegetables that had been replanted in the greenhouse, He Li said with a little invitation.

Lai Xiaohu and they may need to put in the work in the sixth year of junior high school, but Heli and they have already begun to gather people to plant vegetables as early as the second year of junior high school, since Lai Xiaohu wants to operate normally on the sixth day of junior high school, then they must plant vegetables in advance.

The night of the fifth day of the new year was still relatively busy, and Yang Fengze also took Yang Ling back to Jincheng early, and he couldn't rest at night, because he also had to take a few of his subordinates in charge of transportation to transport the picked vegetables to Lai Xiaohu's various stores in Jincheng before the sixth day of the new year. At the same time, it is necessary to store enough vegetables in the warehouse that Lai Xiaohu bought in the first place, just in case.

Before the holiday, Lai Xiaohu had already told the company's main employees that on the night of the fifth day of the new year, he would call Lai Xiaohu one by one to let Lai Xiaohu determine the status of each employee.

In general, the company is still proceeding step by step, early in the morning of the sixth day of the new year, all six employees of Lejia Life Supermarket are in place, and when the time is almost up, each store starts to open on time.

Zhang Ying is responsible for patrolling each store to see if there are any problems. Lai Xiaohu was in charge of meeting with the owners of dozens of other restaurants.

Lai Xiaohu set the opening time on the sixth day of the new year, and those restaurant owners who had cooperated with Lai Xiaohu in the past also set the opening time on the sixth day of the new year, last night, Yang Fengze had already stored enough vegetables in the warehouse, and he and Lai Xiaohu sent these vegetables to each restaurant early in the morning.

By the way, I also let Lai Xiaohu and these old friends meet below. Reminiscence.

On the first day of the sixth day of the new year, the turnover in all aspects is not very high, because the New Year's holiday is not over yet. Therefore, all the outsiders who occupied a huge population in Jincheng in the past have not returned. And some locals in Jincheng may not be in Jincheng at this time.

So on the first day, not only did those restaurants ask Lai Xiaohu to reduce the supply of vegetables in advance, but the six stores opened on the first day, and the overall turnover was only about 2 million. This is a one-third reduction from before.

However, Lai Xiaohu is not worried about these reductions in turnover, this is a normal phenomenon, and businesses like Lai Xiaohu can only be supported by a huge population, and there are fewer people. Naturally, business will go down.

As the New Year's holiday gradually ended in the next few days, a large number of people gradually returned, and when the population of Jincheng recovered, Lai Xiaohu's voice would gradually recover.

Really. In the next few days, although the daily turnover increased slightly, you can also see that the turnover is constantly increasing, which must be the effect of the large number of people returning to the city.

And the day after Lai Xiaohu returned to Jincheng, Huang Liancheng found Lai Xiaohu, and it seemed that he was more anxious than Lai Xiaohu.

For the cooperation with Huang Liancheng, the two sides have signed a formal contract before the Chinese New Year, and before signing the contract, Lai Xiaohu has also specially spent money to invite professional personnel to evaluate all aspects of Huang Liancheng's Qingcheng water industry, not only in terms of technology, but also in terms of assets.

In the end, Lai Xiaohu's result was basically the same as what Huang Liancheng said, although there were some small discrepancies, but they were within the normal range.

Since there is no problem, Lai Xiaohu of course signed a cooperation agreement with Huang Liancheng before the holiday, and it is in accordance with Huang Liancheng's requirements, a sign is five years, from the day the two sides officially start production.

At the same time, after signing the contract, Lai Xiaohu also advanced a large amount of money to Huang Liancheng in advance according to Huang Liancheng's request for the liquidation of debts between Huang Liancheng and the previous workers, which won Lai Xiaohu a lot of praise among those workers.

They haven't heard of the fact that the work has not started, so they will pay the salary boss first, and because it was the time of the Chinese New Year, the money given by Lai Xiaohu can be said to have solved the financial dilemma of many families in the New Year.

Finding Lai Xiaohu, Huang Liancheng advanced a sum of money from Lai Xiaohu again, the last time it was for liquidation and workers' wages, and this time it was to prepare for the opening of the business. Before the start of construction, Huang Lian Thanh also needed a sum of money to be used as the initial capital for the opening of the business. For example, the purchase of various raw materials costs money, and they all have to be prepared before the start of construction.

Especially now, Lai Xiaohu has signed a contract with Huang Liancheng, stipulating that the procurement of mineral water bottles in the future will also be handed over to Qingcheng Water Industry.

According to the contract between the two parties, the people on Lai Xiaohu's side selected the appropriate supplier, and then Lai Xiaohu handed over the procurement contract to Huang Liancheng, and the other party was responsible for following up. However, every shipment of goods must be inspected by the people on Lai Xiaohu's side, and the price of each purchased goods and the funds for the design must be approved by the people on Lai Xiaohu's side before they can take effect.

Basically, in terms of being responsible for purchasing goods, Qingcheng Water Industry has no profit, because Lai Xiaohu's OEM profit for them has reached a high one percent. Therefore, these efforts are completely additional conditions for Qingcheng Water Industry to obtain 100% of the profits of the first generation of workers.

In addition to the design of all aspects of the mineral water procurement of raw materials, Hoang Lien Thanh also needed to use a sum of money to carry out a maintenance and inspection of all the production machinery, and at the same time the recruitment of workers had to begin.

At the same time as paying all the workers' wages at the end of last year, Huang Liancheng also took the opportunity to say that he was going to start work by himself in the coming year.

Huang Liancheng's meaning is obvious, that is, to test and see if there are any other people among these people who are willing to follow him in the coming year. The final situation is basically expected, although not every old employee chooses to continue to work with Huang Liancheng, but there are also many people who choose to stay after learning that Huang Liancheng signed a long order this time and continue to follow Huang Liancheng.

This time, in order to recruit workers, Huang Liancheng has sprinkled the killer trick of prepaying a month's salary in advance.

After the expenses are spent, the remaining money is the working capital on the books of Qingcheng Water.

After reaching an agreement with Huang Liancheng on various things to start construction. Huang Liancheng got busy.

For Huang Liancheng, this cooperation with Lai Xiaohu is very important.

In Jincheng, Huang Liancheng was also a figure who had been in the limelight for a while, although he was later eliminated by the market due to his own employees. It is even more Huang Liancheng's least arrogance.

This time, his company was in trouble, and he almost needed to buy the company to pay off his debts. This is not a small blow to Huang Liancheng.

On the one hand, Qingcheng Water Industry was founded by Huang Liancheng. For him, the founder, Qingcheng Water Industry can be said to be his own son, and now he can't help but feel sad when he sees that Qingcheng Water Industry is going to go bankrupt. And at the same time that Qingcheng Water Industry was in trouble, the unsatisfactory life also hit Huang Liancheng hard.

In the past, when I was in the limelight, which of the surrounding characters didn't walk around me all day long. Although Huang Liancheng is not a person who likes to show off, after all, when he is down, these people who used to pat themselves in the back all day long suddenly began to sneer in front of him, and such a change also made Huang Liancheng very annoyed.

This time. Huang Liancheng wants to seize this opportunity of Lai Xiaohu to prove to others that he is still the same Huang Liancheng, and he will not fall.

On Lai Xiaohu's side, he also began to design product packaging and lay sales channels for mineral water.

First of all, in terms of packaging design, Lai Xiaohu and they didn't know much about this, so they handed it over to a special person to do it, and found an advertising company, and Lai Xiaohu handed over the design of product packaging to them.

For advertising companies, designing a product packaging is not an easy task, so Lai Xiaohu has no worries in this regard.

What really made Lai Xiaohu put a lot of effort into opening up sales channels is that selling mineral water is not the same as Lai Xiaohu's current vegetable sales.

Selling vegetables Lai Xiaohu can open a store, but selling water will not always make Lai Xiaohu open a store specializing in selling mineral water, right? There's really no need to go through such a fuss. It is estimated that a store can earn millions of dollars and sell hundreds of thousands of bottles of mineral water to sell water?

In the area of opening up channels, Lai Xiaohu also conducted a special investigation. Basically, the main channel used by similar mineral water companies on the market is the agency system, but this Lai Xiaohu uses a lot. Because Lai Xiaohu initially started sales in his own Jincheng. So there is really no need to make an agency system within Jincheng.

This is determined by the limitations of Lai Xiaohu's current space. Although Lai Xiaohu also wants to put the entire sales into the whole country and even the world in one step, it is obviously impossible.

If the shop is too big, on the one hand, there may be a situation where the water in the space is in short supply, and even if this situation does not occur, the shop is too big, and it will not make Lai Xiaohu do nothing every day, just keep taking out the water in the space, and then just be a porter who doesn't know how to stop, right?

If that's the case, Lai Xiaohu would rather not earn this money himself. Although Lai Xiaohu likes to make money very much, he has not yet reached the point of begging to be a money slave.

Of course, there is no solution. Just like Xiao Ran told him. The method is actually quite simple. Just hurry up and upgrade.

The core of the solution is still the energy crystal nucleus. And the energy crystal nucleus is actually the core of the entire space.

Through the energy crystal nucleus, Lai Xiaohu can bring energy outside for vegetable cultivation, and similarly, through the energy crystal nucleus, Lai Xiaohu can also bring the production of mineral water outside to simplify the process.

For example, now Lai Xiaohu directly dilutes the water in the space outside, and then further makes it into mineral water. This is because there is basically no limit to the absorption of external energy and water in space, but there is indeed a limit to the speed of condensing crystal nuclei in space.

Therefore, through this method, Lai Xiaohu can only use the water in the space to meet his own needs to produce mineral water without affecting the condensation of the space energy crystal nucleus.

But this method also has a great inconvenience, that is, it requires Lai Xiaohu to constantly draw water between space and the outside world, and compared with the energy crystal nucleus. The volume of energy water is too large.

If you use an energy crystal nucleus, as long as the energy of the crystal nucleus is enough, sometimes even a small piece of energy crystal nucleus is needed, it can replace the effect of Lai Xiaohu taking water from the space many times.

Therefore, Xiao Ran's method is very helpless. Lai Xiaohu also knew that as long as there were enough energy crystal nuclei, it would be fine, but the speed of condensing energy crystal nuclei in this space was still far from keeping up with the needs of his own development.

If Lai Xiaohu thinks about selling products all over the country in the future. The method of this agency system can be carefully considered. It's just that due to the current capacity constraints, Lai Xiaohu can barely meet the local market in Jincheng, so this agency system can only be temporarily abandoned.

In terms of specific sales, Lai Xiaohu mainly fancied three retail channels, and the first channel favored by Lai Xiaohu was naturally the supermarket sales channel.

In fact, this is also the most important channel, whether it is a single small supermarket or a large supermarket chain. In the past, when supermarkets were not popular, I didn't talk about it. Anyway, since the popularity of the new retail terminal channel of the supermarket, for most products, the supermarket has become the most important sales channel.

Especially for the beverage industry, how many out of 10 times you buy a drink outside today is not in the supermarket. It doesn't matter if it's a big supermarket or a small supermarket on the side of the road, it's the same on the channel anyway. It is estimated that except for those who have the money to stay in hotels frequently, most people buy on the supermarket channel ten times out of ten.

In addition to this terminal channel for sales, another thing that Lai Xiaohu values is actually the hotel. Of course, it can also be said to be the catering industry, because Lai Xiaohu not only wants to sell in hotels, but also in those small restaurants.

However, relatively speaking, Lai Xiaohu still attaches more importance to the sales of hotels. And what he actually values is the high-end spending power of the hotel customer base.

At present, Lai Xiaohu has determined the price of his upcoming mineral water. After careful thinking and analysis, Lai Xiaohu set the price of each bottle of mineral water at 36 yuan per bottle, and the capacity of each bottle was 500 milliliters.

This price was determined by Lai Xiaohu after referring to the prices of other similar products on the market and the value of his own products. He definitely doesn't have to look at similar domestic products, and it is definitely not necessary. Not to mention that there are few domestic brands in the domestic mineral water market, and some of them are marked with mineral water, but in fact, they are not at all.

Therefore, the price is not much higher, and you can rarely see domestic mineral water with a high price.

Therefore, if you look at the mineral water brands on the market, basically all the high-end prices are foreign brands, and the prices of these foreign brands are naturally not low. Basically, a bottle of more than ten yuan or even dozens of yuan a bottle is a common thing.

So after referring to the prices of these foreign brands, Lai Xiaohu set the price of his products at 36 yuan per bottle. Basically, Lai Xiaohu can guarantee that the price of his products is the top price in the domestic market.

Thirty-six yuan a bottle, and a bottle only has a capacity of 500 milliliters, so you can imagine that Lai Xiaohu is mainly interested in customers in the high-end market, because not everyone can afford to drink this kind of mineral water for more than 30 yuan a bottle.

The reason why Lai Xiaohu likes the hotel channel is here, as an upgrade of the hotel, the hotel itself says that the customers targeted are those with relatively high spending power. In particular, the higher the star of the hotel, the higher the customer's spending power.

The average spending power of hotel customers is certainly much higher than that of the average general public, and the price of 36 yuan a bottle is not too expensive for most of them. There are even a lot of rich people who don't care about the price at all.

And in addition to hotels, those ordinary restaurants are also a viable sales channel. Although many people like to drink when they eat in restaurants, after all, the vast majority of people in the entire consumer group do not drink.

For those people, drinks are their best choice. It is also a habit for many people to have a drink at the same time as eating or to buy a bottle of drink after eating. Therefore, Lai Xiaohu values the consumption potential of these people, although Lai Xiaohu himself does not sell drinks, but it can also be guaranteed that at least some of these people will always be loyal lovers of mineral water.

The last one. That is naturally the sales in Lai Xiaohu's own store. Although it is impossible for Lai Xiaohu to open some specialty stores or something in order to sell mineral water, it would be really a waste if he didn't use his ready-made store. Anyway, there is still space in Lai Xiaohu's own store, and there is no problem at all to put some mineral water.

Best of all, there are no additional expenses. You can find a sales channel for yourself, which is the best thing.

The fifteenth and sixteenth of the first month. It happens to be the Lantern Festival. Although it was impossible for Lai Xiaohu to give his employees a holiday, he also canceled the business of his employees on the two nights without affecting the normal business. Anyway, the most fun part of the Lantern Festival is at night, so let employees continue to work during the day, and then wait until the evening to have a good time outside.

In addition, all employees who go to work normally on the two days of the Lantern Festival can also get several times their usual salary, which is a normal regulation of the state. Lai Xiaohu will not disobey it, but his compensation for employees is a little higher than the standard of normal compensation of the state.

Since Lai Xiaohu let his employees have to go to work during the Lantern Festival, he must continue to work, so although Ivanka really wants Lai Xiaohu to take her outside to play in the past two days. However, Lai Xiaohu also had to explain to Ivanka and put this time in the evening.

In the evening, Lai Xiaohu said that he would do it, and after the company got off work, he immediately took Ivanka and Zhang Ying to go outside to play.

Speaking of the atmosphere of play, in fact, the New Year is not necessarily comparable to the Lantern Festival, the New Year mainly focuses on family reunion and a festive atmosphere of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. And the Lantern Festival is to make you happy and lively.

Jincheng on the night of the Lantern Festival is a city that never sleeps, and the road at night is full of people who come out to play together, and the neon lights on the side of the road add a lot of attractions to passers-by.

The bad thing is that most cities have banned fireworks for safety, so most people can't enjoy the fun.

However, fortunately, at this time, the government generally organizes a unified fireworks event, although you can't enjoy the fun of fireworks in person, but you can see a larger-scale fireworks display, which is also a kind of fun.

On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Lai Xiaohu took the two of them to almost all the fun places in Jincheng, especially at night, when the three of them were together in the snack street for several hours, and when they came out, almost all of them couldn't walk.

"How's it going?" Lai Xiaohu asked Ivanka excitedly.

"That's good." Ivanka's return is also full of excitement.

No matter how fun it is, there is an end, and when it is almost one o'clock in the evening, the three of them have to go back.

The next day, the company was still open as usual, but Lai Xiaohu saw that most of the employees were a little listless, obviously many people played too late last night, just like Lai Xiaohu and they played until two o'clock last night before going to bed.

When I woke up in the morning, I slept for about three hours.

"Well, when the mineral water comes out, you can let the employees use it first." Seeing the listless employees, Lai Xiaohu thought in his heart.

In view of the general bad spirits of the employees, it was five o'clock in the afternoon. Lai Xiaohu asked everyone to get off work. After getting off work, Lai Xiaohu first organized everyone to have dinner together, and then all the employees of the company went out to play together.

Last night, Lai Xiaohu heard that the municipal government had set aside two squares for citizens to set off fireworks on them, so that many citizens who had not personally set off fireworks for many years could have a good time tonight.

And such an opportunity, of course, Lai Xiaohu will not let it go. The reason why he gathered all the employees together tonight was because he had spent more than 200,000 yuan to purchase a large cart of fireworks during the day, and all the employees could have a good time tonight.

In the evening, after everyone had dinner together, they came to the nearest Hai*he Square. Haihe Square is actually just outside the train station in Jincheng, and although it is close to the train station, this square is large enough that it is suitable to be opened up as a place for fireworks.

When Lai Xiaohu and the others left, Yang Fengze personally drove the car and pulled a large cart of fireworks to follow.

Arrived at Haihe Square. There have already been a lot of people here, and it is rare that this year the municipal government has relaxed the restrictions on private fireworks. Although everyone had to gather and set it on fire in the place that was arranged to be realized. But it's much better than before.

There are basically many young couples in their twenties in the square, and there are many families of three, and from time to time you can also see a few elderly people laughing in the crowd from time to time.

Before it was completely dark, people had already started to set off fireworks in the square, but most of the fireworks were set off here by children brought by their parents, and occasionally some couples could be seen. And they set off some relatively small fireworks.

"Come on, let's play one by one." When Yang Fengze came to the square with a large truck of fireworks, it immediately caused a sensation in the crowd. And Lai Xiaohu also took the staff and soon came to Yang Fengze. Dozens of employees at Roca Supermarket quickly surrounded the entire truck.

When they opened the car door, Lai Xiaohu and Yang Fengze were responsible for distributing fireworks, and basically the first ones they took out were small fireworks, which were for everyone to play by themselves.

After the employees of Lejia Supermarket received a lot, there was still a lot left in the car, and seeing a lot of people on the side, Lai Xiaohu directly distributed these fireworks to other people in the square.

Counting the time, by the time there were still a few minutes left before eight o'clock in the evening, Lai Xiaohu and the others had already set up those large fireworks.

The onlookers were obviously happy to set off with Lai Xiaohu and them, so after Lai Xiaohu had placed dozens of large fireworks, many people in the crowd had already enthusiastically signed up to participate in the fireworks.

Most of the employees in the Lejia supermarket are women, and it's okay for these people to let them watch the fireworks, but if they let them set off in person, it is estimated that no one dares to go up, so Lai Xiaohu has to rely on other onlookers.

As one of the two places where fireworks can be fired, Haihe Square has actually had people come to maintain order a long time ago, and when they saw that Lai Xiaohu was going to organize a large-scale fireworks, they didn't stop it, but they also sent a lot of people to guide Lai Xiaohu and them, and then they were also responsible for persuading the people watching to retreat to a safe distance.

After everyone was ready, Lai Xiaohu shouted the slogan loudly, "One, two, three, let's go." ”

As Lai Xiaohu's slogan reached three, dozens of young people who had been ready for a long time lit the fireworks in front of them.

With the sound of the sizzling fuses burning, everyone held their breath, and everyone knew that the next moment would be the time for these fireworks to bloom.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang" Sure enough, about a minute later, as the first salute flew out of the sky, the rest of the salute cannons also shot into the sky one after another.

"Bang", "bang", "bang" and "bang" are a loud sound, and the ceremonial flowers blooming in the sky instantly form a variety of colorful patterns.

And in the middle, a spray of fireworks is slowly beginning to show its charm.

As the fireworks sprayed higher and higher, the atmosphere of the crowd became higher and higher, and finally when a huge silver giant tree formed by fireworks more than ten meters tall in the middle was formed, the crowd immediately broke out into cheers.

This night was the craziest time for everyone to play.

The night of the sixteenth passed. Yesterday everyone was still celebrating the Lantern Festival frantically, and today we have to start working normally. The Lantern Festival has passed, which also marks the end of the New Year, and what awaits everyone from today is a long work.

Huang Liancheng had already recruited enough employees there, but before Lai Xiaohu asked to start work, they could only make preparations.

Lai Xiaohu's other work has actually been done here, except for the construction of the final channel for product sales.

In this regard, Lai Xiaohu has encountered a lot of problems, because this is a completely new industry for him, especially in terms of channel expansion. He had never been in contact with it.

He's actually been working on this since the New Year, but so far apart from the supermarket, which has made a lot of progress, the rest of the place has basically come to a standstill.

This is definitely not a problem in his own store, it is completely a matter for Lai Xiaohu to have the final say. In other supermarkets, although it is difficult, it is not very difficult.

Because the supermarket is a relatively open channel terminal. They themselves often continue to absorb new products from outside into their stores, so most of those large supermarkets welcome Lai Xiaohu's arrival.

Basically after paying a sum of money on the supermarket side. Lai Xiaohu signed a short-term supply contract with the convenience. The reason why it's short-term. It is also a supermarket rule.

On the one hand, they need to decide whether they need to sell these products in their own stores in the future according to the sales of Lai Xiaohu's products, after all, the space in the supermarket is also limited, if Lai Xiaohu's things sell well, naturally they have nothing to say, they wish Lai Xiaohu's things have been sold in their own place.

And if Lai Xiaohu's things are all unsalable, then in the end it will hinder their own interests.

And they also need to consider the quality of Lai Xiaohu's products in a short period of sales. Let's see if all of them are of high quality like the samples given by Lai Xiaohu.

Those small supermarkets are much more difficult than those large supermarkets, and large supermarkets will have their own specific rules and regulations after reaching a certain scale, and it is their job to constantly accommodate the entry of new products.

This is not the case with those small supermarkets, which are basically small stores. They are limited in size and are largely managed according to the owner's complete whims.

Their management is lagging behind, and their response to the market is relatively slow, so when Lai Xiaohu comes to the door to promote their products, most of the bosses have an attitude of rejection towards Lai Xiaohu.

Lai Xiaohu can also give them a certain fee, such as how many shelves to use, how much money to pay, or how much money to pay the other party for the sale of their own products, but even so, most of these small supermarkets still do not welcome Lai Xiaohu's entry.

If you don't welcome it, you don't welcome it, Lai Xiaohu doesn't force it, anyway, he doesn't pay much attention to these small supermarkets, after all, these small supermarkets are for ordinary customers on the street, and there are not many of these people who will buy a bottle of mineral water for dozens of yuan. And there are too many of these small supermarkets, and it is impossible for Lai Xiaohu to spend too much energy on each of them.

Despite the fact that although he encountered a little dilemma in these small supermarkets, he relied on reaching supply contracts with dozens of large-scale supermarkets in the city, and Lai Xiaohu could be regarded as achieving his expected results in the supermarket.

However, in terms of hotels, Lai Xiaohu has encountered a much greater dilemma than in those small supermarkets.

The main reason why Lai Xiaohu encountered resistance in those small supermarkets was that the other party's management was too freewheeling, the management was lagging behind, and the lack of sensitive market response.

But what about the hotels? Their management is standardized enough and advanced enough compared to other industries in China, but they have a bigger problem, which is that they are too xenophobic.

These hotels are completely like an independent kingdom in all respects, whether it is purchase or sales operation, they have their own set of unique channels, and the relationship with each other is very good, of course, this does not exclude a large number of related households. The long-term operation has made the upstream and downstream of these hotels have become ossified, and it is difficult for people like Lai Xiaohu to break into their relatively closed upstream and downstream channels.

The problems Lai Xiaohu encountered when selling his mineral water to these hotels were actually the same as when he first promoted his vegetables to the hotels, and there were too many problems encountered, and the most helpless thing for Lai Xiaohu was that he was a relation.

No matter if it is now that he has a request for the other party, Lai Xiaohu can only lead but not provoke.

In this way, on the 20th, Lai Xiaohu stopped working on channel expansion, and at this time he had reached supply contracts with 37 large supermarkets, more than 100 small supermarkets and more than a dozen hotels.

Lai Xiaohu is already very satisfied with the initial ability to reach this scale. And his output in the early stage will not be too much, and these sales channels can fully meet their own needs.

After arriving, Lai Xiaohu believed that after his products were sold, those who rejected him at the beginning would come back and beg for him. When the time comes, it will undoubtedly be much easier to discuss with them about the product on the shelves.

After making preparations, Lai Xiaohu immediately notified Huang Liancheng and started production.

Here, Lai Xiaohu specially formulated a relatively airtight water tank, and then took water from the space twice and put it into the water tank. After it was completely sealed, the water tank was personally transported by Yang Fengze to Qingcheng Water. And this water is called raw water by Lai Xiaohu.

After getting the raw water sent by Lai Xiaohu, Huang Liancheng immediately attracted filtered deep groundwater, and then continued to dilute it according to the dilution ratio of one to one hundred stipulated by Lai Xiaohu.

After the dilution is completed, the water is drained down a special pipe to the production hall, and the normal production process continues.

Since Lai Xiaohu's initial output was not too large, Huang Liancheng did not dare to recruit too many employees at one time, and there were only twenty employees in charge of production in total.

It took 20 employees two days to finally use up the water sent by Lai Xiaohu, and by this time the mineral water produced was exactly 100,000 bottles.

Yang Fengze's transportation team has already been expanded, after Lai Xiaohu carried out the sound of mineral water, he knew that transportation must be a very heavy task at that time, and relying on Yang Fengze's original ability of the transportation team is simply not enough, so after Lai Xiaohu and Yang Fengze discussed, the company bought a new transport truck, and recruited six new employees.

Here, after receiving the notice of Huang Liancheng's completion, Yang Fengze immediately rushed to Qingcheng Water Industry with two cars and eight employees, and Huang Liancheng called some employees of the company and started the shipment work.

After loading it, Yang Fengze began to transport mineral water next to another according to the instructions given to him by Lai Xiaohu. After Yang Fengze left, Huang Liancheng's Qingcheng water industry also temporarily stopped production. Because Lai Xiaohu did not give them any more raw water, according to Lai Xiaohu's request, the next start of construction will depend on the sales of this first batch of mineral water.

If the sales on the first day are fully in line with Lai Xiaohu's expectations, it is estimated that they will start work again the next day.

As for the fact that the product can't be sold, this Lai Xiaohu hasn't thought about it yet. (To be continued.) )
