492: The transportation market is hot
Located in the Yuntong Transportation Company in Kaifeng, Liu Dali was frowning with a thick pile of information, he had followed Sun Haosheng back from Luoyang for three days, and in these three days, Liu Dali's only job was to understand the company's situation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The situation was not much different from what he expected, or slightly better than he expected, but it wasn't much better. Although Sun Haosheng has made a layout for the company's future development plan in advance, in Liu Dali's view, this layout is full of flaws.
Sun Haosheng's idea is very simple, that is, along the two national highways in Beijing intersection of this convenient transportation, to carry out the cross-shaped transportation strategy, at present only open the province for the time being, occasionally can also run alone outside the province, but the core route is along the national highway, which can ensure the fastest speed, the lowest fuel consumption.
And this is also Liu Dali's first job after leaving the army and leaving the factory, and even, he already feels that he seems to be a little out of touch.
No, it should be said that the thinking is too far ahead.
In the army, he has become accustomed to the days of having a radio, anytime, anywhere, all he needs is a telegram to pass, he can know the latest situation in time and respond in advance. But now, even the cable telegraph is too expensive to death, and it is naturally impossible for the company to spend a huge amount of money to use the telegraph, so basically they regularly send someone to send a letter back to summarize the situation, and the timeliness alone is more than a star and a half worse than that of the army.
However, Liu Dali also knows very well that after all, it is the army, and all kinds of high-tech are there to show their role, and at present, those technologies are still top secret, and it is absolutely impossible to open the civilian version.
And the other is the problem of fuel, there is no gas station in these years, and it is not like the army, when running long-distance transportation, it will be equipped with corresponding fuel trucks, at this time, there is only one way to buy fuel in the private sector, that is, by the company, to the government to buy, and the use must also be made clear, if it is to run long-distance, they need to be equipped with a truck to transport fuel alone, otherwise these trucks will never come back.
These two problems alone are very headaches for Liu Dali, but there is no way, now he is a private company, not the army, so many treatments in the army cannot continue to be enjoyed at this time.
In the private transportation industry, in the current environment is a good attempt, but there are also a lot of problems, and these problems can not be solved in a while, so they can only find ways to solve them.
"Director Liu, Boss Zhao just sent someone to inform them that they have a batch of goods to be shipped to Kaifeng, 50 tons of fertilizer, 15 tons of seeds, let us arrange a car to their factory as soon as possible, and strive to leave as soon as possible." A staff member walked into Liu Dali's office and reported that this was the first order of the transportation company, and although it was the company's own list, Boss Zhao also had to pay.
As for how much Boss Zhao pays, this Liu Dali is too lazy to care, and he is not in charge of talking about business, these shareholders have their own arrangements, and he is only responsible for arranging transportation.
"Okay, I know, you go and inform the No. 6 car to go first, I'll go find Boss Sun, and I'll be there later." Liu Dali nodded, sixty-five tons of goods, six cars are definitely not enough, but seven cars will have five tons of free load, and they will have to run empty cars back and forth, which will undoubtedly increase a lot of costs.
Therefore, Liu Dali's idea was to avoid running empty cars as much as possible, and he didn't understand business, but he knew that Sun Haosheng also had two stores in Kaifeng, so Liu Dali put the idea on Sun Haosheng's body to see if he could find five tons of goods from Sun Haosheng to make up for it.
Sun Haosheng has also been in the company recently, and the headquarters of his stores have also moved here, what is the same as the transportation company, and at the same time, in the future, this will also become the storage base of Sun Haosheng's company, which can be regarded as the first month near the water, as long as there is a need, his goods can be loaded and left immediately.
Liu Dali found Sun Haosheng and told Sun Haosheng of his intentions, and Sun Haosheng also felt that what he said made sense, and then instructed his subordinates to check the inventory of the Kaifeng store, and then agreed to Liu Dali's proposal, and asked people to prepare five tons of goods, and Boss Zhao's sixty-five tons to become seventy tons, which is equivalent to filling the vacancy.
"Boss Sun, the current operation model is not good, our cost is too high, if it continues like this, I am afraid that we will lose money." Having solved the problem of consolidation, Liu Dali raised his concerns.
"It's certain that you will lose money in the early stage, and when the business comes up in the later stage, it is estimated that you will not lose money, right? Besides, although train transportation is cheap, the current train capacity is obviously insufficient, and it is mainly military transportation, and most of the civilian transportation still relies on the old animal transportation mode, so our business will definitely get better and better. Sun Haosheng smiled slightly and explained that he had considered this problem, even if he lost money, it was not unacceptable in the early stage.
"Boss Sun, I don't think you understand what I mean, let's put it this way, when we send it over, there is income, but when we come back, it can only be an empty car, but an empty car also needs to consume fuel, the closer ones are fine, and the ones that are a little farther away, this time back and forth is equivalent to swallowing the one-way profits. When we were in the army, we sent supplies to the front line, and we usually carried some things with us on the way back, and only when there was really nothing to carry, or when the military situation was urgent, we would return empty. Liu Dali said.
Sun Haosheng nodded, he understands this truth, and he has also made corresponding measures, the branches distributed in various places are not just as simple as bulk cargo, Sun Haosheng also plans to make them a place to receive goods, if the number is too much, they can even arrange a car to go directly to the factory to pick up the goods, but at present, the company's influence is not large, and there are not many people who know, so the business will definitely not be particularly good.
"I understand what you mean, otherwise, the car arranged for this time will not come back first, I want to find a way to try to put an advertisement in the newspaper, so that our company's name can be remembered as much as possible."
…………
Just do it, two days later, the newspapers in the province appeared in the advertising information of Yuntong Transportation Company, the advertisement is very straightforward, making people look a little red fruit feeling, but this way of clearly marking the price is also easy to accept.
A ton of goods 100 kilometers of freight is 2 yuan, every more than 100 kilometers, then increase 2 yuan, if fully loaded, 100 kilometers of a truck cost of 1.1 yuan, this is the car damage, fuel consumption, labor and other costs after the price is calculated, that is to say, a ton of goods 100 kilometers, they earn nine cents, ten tons of goods earn nine dollars, although the profit is not high, if you remove other costs such as warehousing, in fact, 100 kilometers only earn about five cents.
And this price is not the only one, such as some lighter quality, and occupy a larger position of goods, especially cotton, this price has to be said separately, because you are a few meters high, he can not carry ten tons of weight.
At this time, the freight of the train is 1.5 yuan per ton of 100 kilometers, and the cost is cheaper than that of truck transportation, but correspondingly, the carrying capacity of the train is very large, and the operating cost is slightly lower than that of the truck.
In addition to the fixed line, it also accepts special line services, which need to be set according to different regions, different geographical conditions and the situation of the goods, in the eyes of the people, this is also a lively picture, but in the eyes of some factories, the situation is not ordinary.
In the past, a ton of goods basically needed three carriages to transport, if a hundred kilometers of transportation, the average cost of each carriage was about eight cents, and if it was calculated, it would be four cents more than truck transportation, and how could the carriage compare with the speed of the truck? In addition, there are not many horse-drawn carts and ox-carts, so many times you can only wait.
Therefore, when the newspaper advertisement was published, factories all over the province came to inquire about the price.
In just one week, the 100 trucks of the Express Transportation Company were a little difficult to bear, and the convenience of trucking also made the factory see great development potential, although it was still worried about the capacity, but it was not as troublesome as before.
After running the sky car for the first two days, a hundred trucks began to be fully loaded, and under Liu Dali's dispatch, there was basically no empty car return.
But there is no radio, which means that the information cannot be synchronized in time, and in order to solve this problem, Liu Dali also had to take another stupid method, that is, if there is no goods to be transported back at a point, then wait there, and at the same time send people to the nearby line to ask if there are goods, if there is, the truck will run over to carry it.
Although the time will be used more, but the profit can be guaranteed, so in just one week, in addition to the first three days of bleak business, from the fourth day, it only took four days to take 100 trucks to bring nearly 10,000 net profits to the company.
For a time, the business of Yuntong Company was even more popular, and even many factories could only wait in line for transportation.
At this time, Sun Haosheng once again showed his courage, the first batch of 100 trucks used 780,000 yuan, and at that time from the bank loan of 2 million, and then Boss Wu injected 300,000 yuan, started a company, rented warehouses around the country, recruited personnel, etc. spent about 30,000 yuan, so at this time the company's account still had 1.49 million yuan, Sun Haosheng quickly persuaded the other four shareholders, and then, from the remaining 1.49 million yuan, took out 1.17 million yuan to buy 150 trucks.
If it continues to be calculated like this, the net profit of a week will be about 20,000 yuan, a month is 80,000 yuan, a year is 960,000 yuan, and the money to buy a car only needs less than ten months to return to the capital. (To be continued.) )
