In the evening, Wang Xuan mentioned the idea of looking for tea trees to the old man, hoping to arrange for Orion to go into the mountains to find it at a convenient time.

At the same time, in order to reduce the difficulty of identification, a picture was specially drawn, and the shape, color, and even the taste when chewing were also recorded.

The old man readily agreed, promising to do his best to find the tea tree.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, everyone set off for the mosquito coil factory.

The mosquito coil factory is located in the east of Xingyao River, west of Hedong Avenue, south of a village 1 to 3 groups placed side by side, and further south is Mosquito Street, south of Mosquito Street are 4, 5 and 6 groups. Therefore, the people went to the mosquito coil factory through Mosquito Street, through the middle of the aboriginal people and the four groups of settlements.

Mosquito Street is beautifully trimmed, the weeds on the road have been cleared, and cinchona trees are planted on the roadside.

The self-built houses of the aborigines on the north side of Mosquito Street are basically larger than the houses of the immigrants on the south side, and they also look older.

The Guo family continued to invest in Hedong, and the land along the east bank of the Xingyao River was bought by him, which is nearly 5 kilometers long and nearly 100 meters wide, and plans to operate in the service and logistics industry. The Ministry of Civil Affairs specially asked Wang Xuan's opinion for this reason, and such a large land transaction was the first time in the history of auspiciousness.

After comprehensive comparison and reflection, Wang Xuan approved the Guo family's request to buy land, and also hoped that the development of the Guo family could be mutually reinforcing and mutually promoting with Hedong.

Soon after, everyone went to the mosquito coil factory. The factory sits in the north and faces south, and there is a side door on the west side to supply raw materials in and out.

Wang Xuan is no stranger to mosquito coils, some of the processes here are still designed by him, and the molding mold has changed from wooden to ceramic products, and the surface of the mosquito coil made is smooth and smooth. The bracket that supports the burning of mosquito coils has been changed to bamboo products, which can be burned horizontally or vertically.

Due to the need for confidentiality, the raw materials of mosquito coils are made in different workshops, and finally weighed according to the proportion and sent to the configuration workshop, mixed and stirred by special personnel, and finally molded into the mold, dried and packaged.

In order to increase the fragrance and confuse the public, Wang Xuan deliberately added the powder of grinding different petals.

Mosquito coils are particularly popular in Great Xia, and people with a little status will light a plate of mosquito coils to show respect for the guests. This phenomenon is especially true for the royal family, and orders have not shrunk much even during the winter months.

Wang Xuan took the children to visit various workshops and selectively explained some production processes to the children.

The production of mosquito coils requires that the ingredients do not deteriorate and remain dry, otherwise it will affect the smell of mosquito coils when burning. A box of mosquito coils is sixty plates, and the cost is about five silver coins, while the wholesale price is the lowest is one gold coin, and the profit is 100%. Wang Xuan almost classified the mosquito coil factory as a luxury product, but he gave up considering the "just need" of the market.

The mosquito coil factory produces about 1,000 boxes per day, and the net profit is around 500 gold coins, so that after deducting taxes, workers' salaries, bonuses and material costs every month, the profit is also around 10,000 gold coins.

Except for 50 percent of the investors, the remaining 50 percent is at the disposal of Jianye Town, including 10 percent of the education expenses, so compared with Hexi, Jianye Town's development funds are not small.

At present, the monthly salary of the workers of the mosquito coil factory is around two gold coins, which is worse than that of Yongsheng Ceramics Factory, although there is no employee dividend but there is a year-end bonus, which is said to be very rich.

The success of the mosquito coil factory has made more and more people on the fence red, and Mr. Gu invested ten gold coins accounting for one percent of the shares at that time, and now there are dozens of gold coins in monthly dividends. More and more people want to invest in government-led factories, and if they invest in a profitable deal, they will make a profit.

There are also some people who want to "team up" to build a factory, but unfortunately there is no good project, as for what a good project is, everyone knows it.

Since the announcement of the suspension of the construction of the four factories by the Government Council last month, many people have regretted that their bowels are green, and they have to continue to wait and see, waiting for the opportunity.

Then the group came to the packaging area, which is divided into two areas, one is the handling and storage area, and the other is the packaging area.

The dried mosquito coils are carried to the storage area, while the packers count the quantities and put them into wooden boxes according to the trays.

The wooden box is divided into six areas, and each area can hold ten plates of mosquito coils, for a total of sixty plates.

Of course, it can also be customized, ten, twenty or even one hundred plates, but it is a matter of changing the packaging of the plate factory.

The outer packaging is engraved with the same trademark and address as Yongsheng Ceramics Factory, which is done in the plate factory, but there is no specific factory name.

Everyone knows that it is called the mosquito coil factory, but it lacks a loud name, and the factory director Gu Dayong is also a master who sees the seams, and strongly hints that Wang Xuan will give him a name.

Wang Xuan couldn't, so he thought of the name "He'an", which means harmony and tranquility.

Gu Dayong is also going to do things, less than an afternoon of hard work, the mosquito coil factory next to the door of the "auspicious and an mosquito incense factory" signboard, the front also along the "auspicious" head, the general factory does not have this treatment.

Then Wang Xuan came to the conference room and listened to the work report of the mosquito coil factory. Later, Wang Xuan affirmed the achievements of the mosquito coil factory in the past six months, and encouraged: "You not only provided jobs and contributed taxes to Hedong, but also earned a lot of gold coins from the outside. But the results are a thing of the past, where will we go from here?"

It's important to come up with the right opinion at the right time.

"At present, our first thing to do is to develop more and bigger markets. We are about to occupy the southern part of Great Xia, but what about the northern side? What about Hu Yue? In addition, can the production process in the factory be optimized to improve production efficiency? If it is feasible, it means that the same input can have a greater output, and the cost will be much lower. ”

The workers of this era are not like later generations, they still have great enthusiasm for increasing production capacity.

Wang Xuan looked around, "What is the future, in fact, our present is yesterday's future." We must have advanced ideas, meticulous logic, and bold steps. Why did we use 10 percent of the profits of the factories we built before to fund research? That's because the current lead does not mean that we will be ahead in the future, and those red-eyed competitors will do everything they can to pull us down and replace us. Only by maintaining advanced technology can we take the lead and control the market. How to maintain advanced technology? Bold imagination, continuous experimentation, and a solid theoretical foundation. Jixiang is building school buildings everywhere, maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, and these efforts will be reaped one after another. We have reason to be happy with our achievements, but we can't be arrogant, blessings and misfortunes lurk, misfortunes and blessings rely on, and in the invisible corners, we have countless enemies waiting around. ”

In fact, Wang Xuan didn't plan to say these warning words, but the pride of the shareholders made him very uncomfortable, and it was necessary to knock it.

This kind of beating is not only for the mosquito coil factory, but for the entire auspicious enterprise, Wang Xuan's words and deeds represent a meaning far beyond the surface, and the political sensitivity of the people who do business plays a role at this moment.

Everyone was embarrassed, they used to barely make ends meet, but now they began to pursue enjoyment, and they managed to become the person they hated before, which has to be said to be too ironic.

Now everyone has gradually become a member of the so-called "upper-class" social circle, and the masks of active or passive have been changed one after another, but the peace pursued in the heart has gradually drifted away.

The lunch at the mosquito coil factory was quite delicious, the meat dishes were game hunted by Orion, and a few vegetarian dishes made Wang Xuan feel a little shadow of his middle school days.

In the afternoon, Wang Xuan and the children went to the quarry in Wucun. There are two quarries in Hedong, both of which are considered village-level collective enterprises.

Wang Xuan and the others visited the quarrying, stone selection, repair and craft stone carving, and the only way he worked on the site was that it was time to build a gunpowder workshop.

The operation methods of the stone quarry are too primitive, and the quarrying relies on a large area of fire and water cooling, so that the stones crack under the action of huge temperature differences. Transportation is also a hassle, relying on manpower to carry the shoulder.

This place is close to the mountains and forests, so you have to be vigilant at all times, and if you don't say well, a wild beast will come out. The road is even more of a joke, just a casual layer of stones and stone powder.

Considering the difficult start of the factory and the hardships of the workers, Wang Xuan placed a small order for the two quarries, ordering 20 stone lions, 4 rockeries, 10 tons of fine gravel and about 40 pieces of stone carving handicrafts, which were specially approved for the government affairs and the lord's mansion. Part of the rockery is to be used in Fenghu Park, and this batch of orders is worth nearly 1,000 gold coins.

Later, after Wang Xuan inquired about the output and profit of the quarry, he went to the southern farm.

The piglets here have been artificially bred for nearly two months, and their body size is changing day by day. Most of the castrated piglets survived, and a small number of older ones died due to infection.

Wang Xuan is extremely satisfied with the farm opened by Hedong on his own initiative, which reflects the boldness, carefulness, and not ...... A positive attitude that does not hesitate, and a decisive move when you see an opportunity, this is the way of the leader.

Wang Xuan changed the style of the mosquito coil factory, and praised the farm, saying that there are few rare things in the sky and the world, and the entourage is envious, and the Ministry of Commerce received applications for many private farms in the following months, and Sun Xing was also crying and laughing.

What he saw and heard in the past two days has deepened Wang Xuan's understanding of Hedong, in short, it is thriving. However, the congenital imbalance of development has slowed down the development speed of Hedong. Wang Xuan is mentally prepared for this, and he just improves them one by one, and everything is done.

Today's children's homework is a bit complicated: on the importance of industry leadership.
