Chapter 224 220: The first harvest gold
"Ah...haha, Mr. Mi, don't make such a joke. I was shocked. I was still thinking about what I didn't do well, which made Mr. Mi dissatisfied."
"Heh, look at your carefulness, come on, unload the things and weigh yourself."
The porters at the supply and marketing station moved all the goods down and put them on the weighbridge. After passing the load, it weighed 2,740 catties.
Arranged by Mi Qingsong to turn to the drying kiln.
Then he took Wang Tianxiao to calculate the expenses.
"Xiao Wang, although we are familiar with each other and have a good relationship, we still need our brothers to settle accounts clearly."
"That's it, that's it, everything follows the rules."
Wang Tianxiao naturally has no objection.
"Because the price of herbal medicines changes every year, we can't look at the prices in the past. This year's guide price is 5 yuan per kilogram for dandelion and 6 yuan per kilogram for capillary. That is to say, 2.5 yuan and 3 yuan per catty, right? ?”
"right."
"However, our purchase requirements are originally to be dried in the sun. You can see that the parts brought by the common people and picked in the wild by themselves are all dried in the sun. So I still have to do it on the original basis. Another 40% discount, Dandelion becomes 1.5 yuan, and Yinchen is 1.80 yuan, what do you think?"
Wang Tianxiao thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Old Mi, 40% of the water is a bit too much. Although the villagers have also sunbathed, they must not have sunbathed to this extent. You can see if this is okay, and I won't talk nonsense. 30% off."
"30% off..." Mi Qingsong thought for a while, then smiled, "Then it's 30% off, that's okay, since your medicinal herbs are in good condition, so let's go. Let's go then, go to the warehouse to issue an invoice, Then go to finance to get money."
"OK, all right."
Mi Qingsong was very enthusiastic and took Wang Tianxiao through the whole process in person.
There are a total of about 1,200 catties of dandelions and 1,500 catties of wormwood. According to the negotiated price, the total is 5,250 yuan after deducting excess fractions.
Wang Tianxiao held a thick wad of money in his hand, very satisfied.
This is the joy of real harvest.
According to the purchase price, he estimates that this year's output will be about 200,000 catties, and if calculated on average per catty, it can be sold for 400,000 yuan.
Excluding all kinds of labor, vehicles, and communication costs, there must be 300,000 yuan.
The harvest is full.
Maybe he chooses to buy some stocks after rebirth, and he can earn this money faster by going to big cities to sell treasury bonds, but his sense of joy is definitely not so strong.
He finally understood why the people in his previous life insisted on farming the land even though the food produced in the field could no longer cover the manpower and material resources invested by the farmers.
On the one hand, they are worried that they have no food to eat.
More importantly, perhaps this kind of joy of harvest is what farmers really feel that they exist.
It's like workers get paid, like scientists get scientific research results.
This sense of satisfaction is better than anything else.
After finishing his work, Wang Tianxiao bought some snacks for several staff members of the supply and marketing station, including the two staff members who received him when he first went there.
He has always attached great importance to these.
Never underestimate others, nor overestimate yourself.
So wherever I go, my popularity is very good.
After finishing, Wang Tianxiao insisted on asking Mr. Mi out for a meal.
Still the familiar mutton noodles.
It's at the one where I bought rice last time.
Wang Tianxiao was actually tentatively talking about a sensitive issue with Mi Lao when he was having dinner, whether or not he should give him a little thank you fee.
How should I say this? He felt it was necessary. After all, Mi Lao had helped him a lot in private and provided a lot of guidance.
After all, Mr. Ke Mi has a special status. If he gets a bad reputation because of this, he will really be sorry for him.
After all, many people in this era are not very materialistic, and only rely on their ideals to support their life creeds. When he goes to thank others at this time, he pours dirty water instead.
Sure enough, when Wang Tianxiao raised a point this time, Mi Lao immediately shook his head, signaling Wang Tianxiao not to continue talking.
This matter will be done.
However, Wang Tianxiao suddenly thought of a "bad idea".
He tried to ask Mr. Mi if he would like to go to his place, but without doing anything, he said that he would be an expert guide, and he could pay for it.
Anyway, Mr. Mi has retired, and now he is working here, so he was re-employed to shine.
Unexpectedly, Mi Lao refused.
Mi Lao didn't say the specific reason, so Wang Tianxiao didn't ask in detail.
Click until the end.
He is his wish. Mr. Mi has Mr. Mi's persistence, mutual respect and mutual understanding. Although there is a generation difference in age, they get along very well with each other.
The two chatted for a while, and Wang Tianxiao mentioned the next step of sales of medicinal herbs.
Mr. Mi said that he had informed a vice president of Haosheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Group, who was his old classmate, and would arrange for someone to come over to discuss the price and supply method in detail.
Originally, Wang Tianxiao was going to give a price difference to let Mi Lao earn some money by the way, but now it seems that he doesn't want to participate in it at all. At most, he is just a front-line bridge approach.
.
On the first day of July, Wang Tianyi came back with Xiao Hongwei.
After treatment, the child's complexion has improved a lot. Although his body is still very thin, he already has vitality.
Wang Tianxiao originally thought that since Wang Tianren looks like a dead pig now, he must not be able to take care of the child if he throws it to him.
Everyone is still very active in seeing a doctor for treatment, but if it is said, who will put the child in someone's care.
It must be that no one wants to.
Everyone doesn’t have much surplus food, who can afford to raise such a child.
Only Wang Tianxiao has this ability.
But when he put forward his idea, Zhang Yufeng suggested that the child should be placed with her.
After all, she is the child's grandma, and there is no one to gossip about taking care of the child, but if Wang Tianxiao raises a nephew, it will seem a bit nondescript when the child's parents are still alive.
Can't tell the outside world.
Wang Tianxiao felt that what his mother said made sense, so let's put it by his mother's side.
Just right to be with Xiaozhu.
At worst, he would just give his mother some living expenses.
He also observed Wang Tianren, and found that he seemed to have some mental problems. There was no brilliance in his eyes, and he was lifeless, as if he would die at any time.
Regarding this, he had no waves in his heart.
If you are going to die...
Just die early.
This kind of person, living in the world, is really a torture to their loved ones.
The only thing I'm worried about is Hua'er, what's going on now?
Following her unreliable mother is really unpredictable.
Wang Tianxiao had inquired secretly, and it seemed that the woman Yu Xiaofeng hadn't returned to her natal family, she really seemed to have disappeared from the world with her daughter.
Wang Tianxiao panicked when he thought that Hua'er was a cute and cute child with a gentle and kind personality, but because of such parents, his life and death were uncertain and his whereabouts were unknown.
Looking at Wang Tianren again, he became even angrier.
Finally, I had no choice but to go to Wang Tianzhong and ask him to see if he could use his relationship to help him search around.
He was worried that Hua'er would be sold by that shameless mother.
This is not something that cannot be done.
Because in the previous life, the flowers were basically sold.
It's just that in the last life, I grew up, but this time I became young.
The child was reading, and it was interrupted.
well…
He was so distressed that he could only sigh silently.
Fortunately, bad luck will not bully one person.
Things at home are troublesome and not perfect, but his project is progressing smoothly.
Under his very "stern" urging, a goat milk supply store named "Fresh Goat" officially appeared.
July 3rd is the 19th day of the fifth lunar month, a very auspicious day.
Amidst the din of gongs and drums, the fresh milk shop opened.
Cheerful music played in the loudspeaker, attracting people to come here.
There were eight hostesses standing at the door, each holding a glass of fresh goat's milk after seasoning.
The young ladies are all waiters borrowed from Zhang Wenyuan’s big hotel. They are all good-looking and have a nice voice.
Goat milk is free to taste. If you think it tastes good, there are packages of various specifications, you can go in and try to buy.
On the big poster, there are big opening bonuses, and the words are all low-priced to loss-making.
On the TV, there is a goat milk popularization video that has been prepared long ago. People can see the various benefits of goat milk on the human body.
And because it is fresh milk, it is more nutritious than milk powder, tastes better, and is more suitable for the elderly and children.
In addition, quarterly, semi-annual and annual fresh milk ordering activities are also carried out on site.
If you order for a year, the price is only half of the usual price.
Such a temptation is not so attractive.
Basically, it surrounds customers indiscriminately from all directions and angles, and there is always a preferential direction waiting for customers to participate in purchasing activities.
It was the first time for the people in Qingcheng to see this kind of fresh milk directly delivered by a store, and they were very curious. After trying it, they thought it was not bad.
And the magical information on TV is more like truth in their eyes.
Plus the price is not expensive, so there are really many people who order.
So much so that in the end Wang Tianxiao set a quantity, saying that he would no longer accept reservations after a certain number of reservations were made.
In fact, this is another form of hunger marketing in disguise.
Science and technology are progressing, humanistic thinking is progressing, and economic models and business transaction methods are also progressing.
Putting it into the present in the future mode is a dimensionality reduction blow.
Effect, leverage.
The sky gradually darkened, and the fresh milk in the last freezer was also sold out.
Looking at the people still waiting outside, Wang Tianxiao wanted to persuade him to come back another day, but everyone said that they had been waiting in line for a long time, and it was really a loss.
Wang Tianxiao thought about it, found some paper, signed his name on it, and let everyone take this name the next day, and they can be the first to decide.
Finally calmed everyone down.
After the crowd dispersed, Wang Tianxiao gave each of the eight waiters a small red envelope and told them to go back.
Only Mi Xiaoqing was left.
Because there is no one here to take care of the store for the time being, Wang Tianxiao asked Mi Xiaoqing to take charge.
The main reason is that this girl is smart, lively, and good-looking, so it's pretty good to be a fresh milk Xi Shi in a fresh milk shop.
If she is more spiritual, she can always work here as a store manager.
If not, then looking for more suitable candidates.
After the iron gate was closed, Wang Tianxiao lay on the small chair, too tired to move.
"Brother-in-law, when shall we go back?"
"I'll go back later, and you can make an account for us to see how much fresh milk went out and how much cash came in. You can calculate everything clearly."
"Well, okay, then you have a break, and I'll take a look."
"I'll squint for a while, call me when you're done."
"Okay."
Wang Tianxiao squinted his eyes, looking at Mi Xiaoqing's back, thinking that if it doesn't work, he should assign Li Guanping here.
Otherwise, it's a bit inconvenient.
Brother-in-law and brother-in-law's daughter-in-law are in the same shop, and they might gossip.
After all, she is not her own sister.
After the store here is stable, it will be handed over to the husband and wife to run it, and I only need to check the accounts regularly.
In the initial stage of the business, he had no one else to use, so he could only let these relatives whom he had confirmed to temporarily shoulder the responsibility.
But if it grows bigger, this kind of family business may not be conducive to long-term development, and then it will be transformed slowly.
Even if they are relatives, not everyone has strong management skills.
If the management ability is insufficient, then you can be a minority shareholder and only pay dividends, and you are not allowed to interfere with the normal operation of the company or store.
Talent, talent.
It seems that we still need to find more talents.
It's a pity that I didn't know many truly capable people when I came to this society, and it's true that I won't be able to use more and more beneficial talents in a short time.
Before I knew it, I fell asleep.
In a daze, he heard someone calling him, he opened his eyes, and saw Mi Xiaoqing standing in front of him with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I'm done."
"It's over, so quickly."
"Not too fast, it's almost nine o'clock."
"Ah, it's so late... Well, I actually fell asleep." Wang Tianxiao sat up and took the paper from Mi Xiaoqing's hand.
Mi Xiaoqing's handwriting is very elegant, and he clearly calculated all kinds of data.
Because the freshness of goat milk must be guaranteed, it is the amount of the day before yesterday and yesterday, and it is kept in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
A total of eighty catties.
Today's sales are based on the idea of drainage. Some goat milk is given away for free, or tasted for free, and there is no sales income.
Wang Tianxiao’s custom-made small cups cost two taels per cup, and sell for 20 cents, and a catty of fresh milk can be sold for about one yuan.
According to the current output, forty to fifty catties of milk can be produced every day, and it can be sold for forty to fifty yuan.
If all the dairy sheep start to produce milk, they can produce about 300 catties of milk per day. If they are all sold...
That is more than three hundred yuan a day, ten thousand a month.
Excluding sales expenses such as taxes, feed costs for raising sheep, and labor costs, at least five or six thousand a month can be earned.
Can completely cover the cost of raising sheep.
To know what the mother-in-law’s family is like now, all the people may not be able to earn 1,000 yuan all year round.
It must be very amazing to earn four to five thousand, five to six thousand in a month.
Of course, Wang Tianxiao’s sales expenses are included in this profit, but this is something he will consider slowly in the future. In the early stage, he basically focuses on laying out the market, and guiding people to consume and eat this kind of fresh milk is the most important thing. .
Today I received a total of more than 60 yuan in sales, and there are more than 100 deposits. That is to say, starting tomorrow, I will sell more than 100 cents of fresh milk every morning. Forty or fifty catties are needed for multiple servings, which can safely cover all the current production of goat milk in the mother-in-law's family.
It seems that we have to wait a little longer for the next reservation.
Otherwise, the supply is really in short supply.
Wang Tianxiao looked at the data in his hand, very happy, and felt more at ease.
It seems that the demand for fresh milk and people's acceptance of new things is much higher than him.
He was also worried that people here would never accept such a trendy thing.
It turns out that the truth is to underestimate everyone.
Facts have proved that as long as it is good and the price is moderate, people in need will choose it.
And the spending power of the people in the city is better than he imagined.
Fresh milk worth at least one tael and ten cents is not a problem.
"Brother-in-law, shall we go back?"
"Okay, go back."
The two went out and found that apart from a few entertainment venues, the bustling city during the day had completely quieted down.
The neon lights on the side of the road are shining alone, like children who have no home.
On the way back, Wang Tianxiao mentioned to Mi Xiaoqing that he would stay here for a long time in the future. If he can do a good job, he can be the store manager, and then the affairs here will be completely handed over to the couple.
Mi Xiaoqing is naturally willing, but still wants to see what Li Guanping thinks.
Although she really wanted to stay in this kind of city and see more people, but if Li Guanping didn't like the hustle and bustle of the city and was willing to stay in the mountains, then she would accompany him.
It is said that marry a chicken and follow the chicken and marry a dog as the dog.
Wang Tianxiao has not heard such a simple concept of husband and wife for a long time.
I was in a trance for a while.
People in later generations always like to use a critical spirit to look at all things and the relationship between characters, and the criteria for judgment are generally whether the interests belong to and the spirit of freedom is satisfied.
But in this day and age, this kind of idea that seems a bit traditional and even lacks personal free thinking has made many happy couples.
It seems that they have lost their sense of autonomy, but who can say that this simple view of marriage is not based on their own ideas at all.
Mi Xiaoqing and Li Guanping also met by chance, but after their deep relationship, they have been able to love each other all the time. Who says it is not a kind of happiness.
"Well, you can discuss it. If he is willing, you can take care of these things. In addition, I told you before that you can spare time to read more books. Isn't the city organizing various cultural training classes now? You can sign up for one, just like Xiaolan."
Wang Tianxiao sighed sincerely: "Knowledge is very important to people. Regardless of any industry or position, without knowledge may make us a little bit of achievement, but to go further and higher, we must need knowledge."
"Well, I understand, brother-in-law, Xiaolan said it all when she wrote to me."
"That's good. I originally thought that if you want to study in the provincial capital, I can support you in the past. First, to be a companion for Xiaolan, and second, to improve yourself. I always hope that you young people will learn more. You are good,"
"Haha, brother-in-law, you are only a few years older than me when we are young."
Wang Tianxiao was taken aback, and found that he had suffered from senile disease again, and began to explain the truth to young people.
He smiled embarrassingly in the dark, saying that he was already twenty-six, and that a girl of eighteen or nineteen like Mi Xiaoqing was a young man, but he secretly laughed in his heart.
The motorcycle is speeding at high speed on the provincial road.
The corner of the man's mouth smiled faintly.
The girl's long hair was blown by the night wind and floated in the night sky.
.
In late July of the Gregorian calendar, the weather in Qingcheng finally reached its limit.
According to everyone's experience, it's time for the two kinds of herbs to mature finally.
It seems that it only takes a few days.
Wang Tianxiao was going back to the village to gather another group of people as labor for the harvest.
With the publicity of more than 30 people in front, this recruitment became much easier. Wang Tianxiao originally estimated that he would need about 100 people, but after the news was released, 200 to 300 people came directly without being notified by the captain.
The scale of the small meeting is larger than usual.
Wang Tianxiao stood on a small mound of dirt, looked at the bustling heads below, and was not in a hurry to speak out, first let everyone continue to argue for a while.
Emotional, there is no way to discuss and inform things.
If you like to make trouble, let it be enough.
Finally, everyone saw that Wang Tianxiao was looking at them all the time, but he didn't speak, and gradually became quiet.
They looked at Wang Tianxiao together, waiting for him to speak.
Wang Tianxiao just smiled. First, he thanked everyone for coming here, and then roughly talked about the tasks and the number of people needed.
When everyone heard that there were only one hundred people, they were a little nervous.
Two or three people can choose one.
"First of all, I have a shop in the city. I need a few shop assistants. The main task is to stand at the counter as you said. In addition, I may need to go out and do some small jobs such as publicity. The monthly salary is one hundred yuan..."
"I'll go, I'll go, I can do it."
"I can too."
"Tianxiao, what do you think of me? You don't understand me. I'm very good at work. Let me do it."
"I think you should forget it, have you been to the city?"
Wang Tianxiao signaled everyone not to make noise, "Everyone listen to me, this job requires at least ten hours a day, but if you have nothing to do in the middle, you can take turns to rest. Because the weekend may be the peak period of the store, so you can't rest on weekends." , but for two days on weekends, we can give everyone an extra salary of ten yuan a day..."
"Is there such a good thing?" Some people were a little skeptical. Calculated in this way, it would be a lot for a month, almost two hundred yuan.
On top of half a year's income from working hard in the village.
"The income is good, but it's also hard work. I put the ugly words in advance. You may not have heard clearly. This job temporarily requires you to go to work every day. If you ask for leave, you can, but you can only ask for one day off a week. Work is work. You can't leave unless it's necessary. So if there are many things at home that you can't get away from, I think it's better not to try it for the time being."
Wang Tianxiao implements a six-day system here, but overtime subsidies are given on weekends.
It is already a very good treatment in this era.
Because in this era, no matter what you do, you basically don’t have a break. If you have to take a break, you won’t be paid that day.
He came from later ages and tried his best to give good welfare treatment to the people he recruited.
Let them work hard and happily.
Of course, compared to the nine-to-five work of later generations, he has not considered it for the time being, not because he can’t afford it, but because it must conform to the overall atmosphere of this era.
People are lazy, running a business and recruiting employees is not doing charity.
If the conditions are the most relaxed in one go, it will not make employees really cherish this position, but will treat him as a fool.
Human nature is selfish.
Everyone never cherishes things that are at your fingertips.
With such a specified time, it seems that there are a little less people shouting, but not many.
After all, that income is too tempting.
However, Wang Tianxiao still has requirements: "In addition, there are two requirements for this job. The first is that at least a junior high school education level is required, and the second is that you must pay attention to your image on weekdays."
These two conditions were put forward, and the crowd was a little fried.
Soon someone shouted, why do you need a degree, can you not work without literacy.
Some people also said that everyone wears casual clothes on weekdays, but they are doing well.
Also pay attention to the image, the requirements are a bit harsh.
In this regard, Wang Tianxiao also explained to everyone.
Selling things in the city is different from that in the countryside. In the countryside, there are some familiar agricultural products, the price is small, the quantity is relatively simple, and unexpected situations are rarely encountered.
But if you want to sell things in the city, and it is a kind of food, you may not be able to deal with emergencies if you lack certain knowledge.
Secondly, it is also very important to pay attention to the image.
Everyone in the village is used to it and it doesn’t matter, but if you dress messily in the city or in the downtown area, let alone no one buys your things, you may even be disgusted by others.
After all, it is something to eat, so everyone pays attention to environmental hygiene.
After these two conditions were screened, the number of eligible people became much less. In the end, Wang Tianxiao selected three of them, and found that they all had a common feature, young and female.
After choosing, Wang Tianxiao hesitated again and again, and decided to say something off-topic: "Dear folks, I have always heard that many people are unwilling to let their children go to school, thinking that reading is useless and a waste of money.
This kind of thinking is wrong. In the future society, for children in backward places like us, only reading is the only way to get out of the big world outside. If we are uneducated, we will be blind wherever we go, and we will not be able to find a decent way of making a living. "
"Especially female dolls, they also need to study. Don't think that female dolls are going to be married off and they are family members, so they are not allowed to study. In fact, there is no distinction between men and women in good jobs, and in many cases women's earning power is better than that of men. You Look, today I want to find a few people with high salaries, but the **** men below us can't pick any one out."
Wang Tianxiao didn't go into details, but he felt that today's move should spread the concept of reading to everyone.
Because Wangjia Village is a mountain village, the awareness of education is quite backward.
Wang Tianxiao's son, Wang Peng, is the village's first high school student and also the first college student.
When Wang Peng was in high school, it was already in 1997 or 1998. For such a long time before, except for the old-fashioned education model, after the resumption of the college entrance examination, there was not a single high school student. degree of contempt.
When Wang Tianxiao asked his daughter to study, not only did he encounter gossip from many people in the village, but also from his own family and relatives.
In the village, there have been rumors about how much the girl earned in the south.
Especially because Wang Fang was too biased, she lost more than ten points in the high school entrance examination, and needed to pay more than 2,000 yuan in borrowing fees.
That was in 1994, more than 2,000 yuan was almost a huge sum of money to Wang Tianxiao in his previous life. He almost borrowed from every family in the village, but the money he borrowed was not much. There are a lot of words to persuade.
Almost no family can really understand.
They all said that it is enough for the girl's family to go to junior high school, and she still goes to high school. After all, she is from someone else's family. What to do with wasting that money, it is better to earn more money for the family before she is married.
In the end, it was Li Yaqin's family who pooled more than a thousand yuan to allow Wang Fang to go to high school.
In his previous life, Wang Tianxiao was a stubborn person. The more others told him to give up, the more he felt that children should study hard. No matter how hard he worked, he gritted his teeth and sent all the children to college. Ph.D., a master.
Solved the problem of the fresh milk shop, and the next step is the real big head.
Wang Tianxiao first called out six people from the crowd, who he thought were good in all aspects among the last thirty people.
Quickly moving, serious and responsible in work, and very flexible, with certain personnel and appeal.
These people are the team leaders he prepared this time.
"...That's it. The first six are the team leaders. Each team leader will lead 20 people. You can choose who you want to lead, but there is a premise that all team leaders' income comes from the workload of your team members. , if the production of the team members is generally low, the income of the whole team including the team leader will be low, but if the production of any team is high, the income of everyone will also be high."
Wang Tianxiao smiled and explained the rules clearly to everyone.
This is the most primitive comparative management concept.
When the number of people is small, he can watch in person, or let Wu Wenhua and the others watch, but once there are more people, it is impossible to worry about everything.
It's time for hierarchical management below.
Deliver the conflict to the team leader below.
For their own income, they will definitely not recruit people who can't do things.
Even if they want to show favoritism, or someone slips in, after a day or two of work, everyone will find out who is the worst in the team, and the worst person will naturally be eliminated.
It is the most primitive mass supervision system.
Next, Wang Tianxiao handed over the time to the six team leaders.
Because the team leaders had been notified before, they didn't waste time, and they already had some suitable candidates in mind.
Soon, the crowd slowly divided into six small teams.
The remaining people belong to each group and are not needed for the time being.
They couldn't get a place with the team leader, so they turned to Wang Tianxiao. Wang Tianxiao said that this was just the first wave, and there were still opportunities later, so they should not worry.
He has asked the group leaders to sing bad faces, and he can sing red faces himself.
It is true.
After his sheepfold is established, he will need some people who specialize in raising sheep for him.
He didn't think about recruiting people from other places. If he could drive the folks on the team to make some money, he tried his best to give everyone the opportunity.
The so-called granary is full of etiquette.
The reason why people on the team have some conflicts and are often not united is actually poor.
Over trivial matters, the disputes are endless.
If everyone's life is better, and they have cooperated with each other at work, they will not be immersed in the slightest gains and losses.
They reaped money and happiness, while Wang Tianxiao filled his labor force.
You can accomplish your goals step by step.
More than 8000 words.
This book doesn’t have a climax, because I didn’t think about writing a climax. It’s just that after an old man is reborn, he has a long-winded feeling. What he did in this life is what he didn’t do in his previous life.
The reason he kept admonishing himself in this life is precisely because he didn't understand in his previous life that what people lack is what they care about.
Not in the water word count, no.
