Chapter 344
In the blink of an eye, in April, the strawberry harvest at the Changping base was abundant, in addition to the special strawberries, there were also people from nearby provinces and cities who rushed to buy strawberries after hearing the news. Now only the last strawberry is left, and it has been decided.
Zichun stood in front of the office window and looked at the strawberry trucks parked outside the base door, frowning.
When he was in Fujian, he could also borrow He Liuye's light and use his cheap fleet to deliver goods. However, in the capital, transportation costs are an unavoidable large expense. What's more troublesome is that the convoy business in the capital is busy, and it is often impossible to borrow. How can a delicate fruit like strawberries be two a day? What to do? Only money can be added. Moreover, the transportation requirements of strawberries are quite high, and the shock absorption work must be done well, so the requirements for the fleet are also correspondingly increased.
Zichun has calculated this account, if the output of the strawberry base doubles in the future, it is obviously not very cost-effective and unreliable to borrow the fleet.
She raised her doubts with Ling Mei.
Ling Mei patted her shoulder in surprise and said, "Zichun, have a vision!" β
Zichun smiled embarrassedly: "Then have you thought about how to deal with this matter?" β
Ling Mei asked her with a smile, "What do you suggest?" β
Zichun hesitated: "Can we build a transport fleet by ourselves?" I've thought about it. Now the city construction is in full swing. Not only to transport strawberries, but also to take on other tasks when we are idle, and we will definitely be profitable. β
Ling Mei snapped her fingers and praised: "You can imagine that it is not easy to form a team." Can you be a little more daring, though? β
Zichun tilted her head, she already felt that her idea was bold enough, how could she be bold?
Ling Mei said with a smile: "In addition to fleet transportation, we also have to build large warehouses in Beijing-Tianjin-Yi and Jiangyi-Shanghai. Having a perfect logistics company is our strongest backup. β
Zichun was stunned: How many warehouses will be built here, and how much will it cost?
Ling Mei sighed: "In addition to money, professional logistics management talents are also a big problem. I already have a direction, though. β
Zichun asked curiously: "Who do you have a crush on again?" β
Ling Mei pursed her lips and smiled: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed." β
Zichun hurriedly said: "What kind of mystery is there with me, you can tell me quickly." β
Ling Mei sighed softly: "Don't worry, don't worry. I'm not completely sure about this, it depends on Zhuo Lin's ability. β
Let's try it soon, everyone. γ
Guangzhou, Fuzhou.
Zhuo Lin got off the train and went straight to the Fuzhou Railway Bureau.
"Are you looking for Director Zhou Xiaokun?" The doorman shook his head, "He's not here anymore." β
Zhuo Lin was not surprised, and handed the whole pack of cigarettes to the doorman: "Then where can I find him?" β
The doorman put away the cigarette and sighed: "If you want to talk about Director Zhou, it's really wronged." Let a psychotic ex-wife miserable. No, he is now transferred to the newly built Railway Bureau Museum.
Zhuo Lin asked for the address and turned to the Railway Bureau Museum.
When I arrived at the place, I found that the so-called museum was still being rebuilt.
The entire half-demolished, half-built building was shrouded in dust raised by scaffolding and cement ash, and the weather was gloomy and suffocating.
Zhuo Lin stopped a worker and asked, "Is your Curator Zhou here?" β
The worker was stunned, turned his head and shouted, "Director Zhou." Someone is looking for you. β
Zhuo Lin saw a man wearing a hard hat turn around and strode towards him amid shouting.
Zhou Xiaokun has a good appearance and good spirits, but his eyes are inevitably dark. He looked at Zhuo Lin suspiciously, and asked, "Are you looking for me?" β
Zhuo Lin hurriedly stepped forward and shook his hand vigorously: "Mr. Zhou." I am Zhuo Lin, deputy general manager of Nanping Yunlai Village Xinnong Company. He paused, "Xiao Lingmei is my leader. β
Zhou Xiaokun was surprised. Xiao Lingmei, of course he remembers. My son's classmate is also a very powerful farmer entrepreneur.
He asked puzzledly, "Xiao Lingmei asked you to come to me?" What's up? β
Zhuo Lin smiled: "Mr. Zhou, do you have time?" Shall we sit down and have a good chat? β
Zhou Xiaokun was also curious about the reason why Ling Mei was looking for herself. turned his head and instructed the foreman a few words, and then took Zhuo Lin to his temporary office location.
I don't want Zhuo Lin to say: "It's not convenient to talk in the office, I see that there is a teahouse over there, how about I invite Mr. Zhou to have a cup of tea?" β
Zhou Xiaokun was stunned and said with a smile: "What can we talk about in the office?" β
That being said, I still followed Zhuo Lin to find a teahouse, ordered a pot of tea, and sat opposite each other.
When the tea was served, Zhuo Lin instructed the clerk again: "We bring our own tea." β
As he spoke, he took out a fist-sized red jar from his bag, took out some dark green fragrant tea leaves, made a pot of tea himself, and poured a cup for Zhou Xiaokun.
Zhou Xiaokun is a person who knows the goods, he looked at the golden-red tea soup and the shape of the leaves, it was still a little incredible, and after tasting the taste, he looked up in shock: "Is it really a big red robe?" At least the second generation, right? β
Zhuo Lin smiled noncommittally: "This is something that Mr. Xiao got unintentionally." If you like it, it's fine. β
Zhou Xiaokun slowly took a few sips of tea and put down the teacup: "You and Mr. Xiao should have heard about my current situation." He looked back at the gray museum outside the window, as if looking at his own future. I don't have much more to do to help you. β
"Mr. Zhou." Zhuo Lin smiled and filled him with tea, "We Mr. Xiao admire your character and ability very much. After hearing about your recent situation, she intended to ask Mr. Zhou to go out of the mountain. β
Zhou Xiaokun's eyes widened incredulously: "Please let me go out of the mountain?" What can I do for your company? β
Zhuo Lin said softly: "Mr. Zhou, are you interested in coming to our company and starting a business together?" β
Zhou Xiaokun looked at Zhuo Lin blankly with the cup for a long time, and then smiled: "Mr. Xiao is engaged in agriculture and forestryββ"
"Nope." Zhuo Lin pushed his glasses, "Mr. Xiao this time, I want to be a logistics company that runs smoothly across the country." β
Zhou Xiaokun blurted out in surprise: "Logistics? Xiao Lingmei wants to engage in logistics?! β
The concept of logistics originated in the country of rice and was introduced to China in the mid-to-late 80s. So it's still a novelty at this point. But Zhou Xiaokun has been in the railway bureau for many years and has long had a deep understanding of logistics.
Earlier, the leader said: If you want to get rich, you must first build roads.
Only when the traffic is smooth can the moat become a thoroughfare.
At the same time, there is another condition that everyone ignores: there is logistics, so that there is the meaning of road construction.
Zhou Xiaokun's half-dead heart suddenly warmed up: "Logistics is a money-burning job." Do you want to do nationwide logistics? How much time does it take, how much money does it take? Can you afford an investment of tens of millions, hundreds of millions? β
Zhuo Lin took a sip of tea: "Mr. Zhou, take a bite of food, and walk step by step." Logistics companies should also be opened city by city. β
Zhou Xiaokun asked, "Which city do you want to start with?" β
Zhuo Lin said: "The capital, Haicheng." β
Zhou Xiaokun smiled: "What, isn't Guangzhou in the eyes of Mr. Xiao?" β
Zhuo Lin shook his head: "The fleet in Guangzhou is already quite climatic, and what is needed is for someone to come out and integrate." It's too hard to do, so we won't join in the fun. β
Zhou Xiaokun couldn't help asking: "Why did Mr. Xiao think of engaging in logistics?" β
