Chapter 507: Zhao Baliang's Ambition
The ecological vegetable garden is a new attempt made by Zhao Baliang and them, and it seems that it is very successful at present. On the one hand, the ecological vegetable garden solves the problem of employment of many rural laborers, and more importantly, the township has a large amount of land, and the scale of the vegetable garden can be larger.
Of course, this kind of thing also has a disadvantage, that is, the transportation cost is relatively high. Early every morning, a large number of fresh-keeping trucks line up, waiting to deliver fresh vegetables from here to supermarkets and some hotels.
When Zhao Baliang came to the ecological vegetable garden, it was already afternoon. This is also the most leisurely time of the day in the ecological vegetable garden. Generally speaking, the ecological vegetable garden will be busy from more than 2 o'clock in the morning until about 10 o'clock in the morning, which can be regarded as the end of the busy day.
Wei Hao, the manager of the ecological vegetable garden, is the purchasing manager of Haoshi, and Wei Hao has previously managed the exclusive vegetable garden of Haoshi. Now, he has been sent to manage the ecological vegetable garden.
Zhao Baliang and Wei Hao are also old friends. At the gate of the ecological vegetable garden, Zhao Baliang directly dialed Wei Hao's phone, no way, without the pass of the ecological vegetable garden, the car could not enter.
Hearing that Zhao Baliang was coming, Wei Hao hurriedly notified the doorman to release people here, and he also rushed to the door as fast as he could. Anyway, Zhao Baliang is also one of the owners of the ecological vegetable garden!
"Mr. Zhao, I'm really embarrassed to ......" Seeing Zhao Baliang, Wei Hao hurriedly apologized. At the same time, he was also complaining in his heart that the doorman had no eyesight, and he didn't even recognize Zhao Baliang.
Zhao Baliang didn't feel anything, but felt that the doorman was very responsible. If he put anyone in it, then Zhao Baliang would be worried! You know, there are many people who are thinking about his ecological vegetable garden model now.
"Mr. Wei, will you show me this ecological vegetable garden?" Zhao Baliang said jokingly.
Wei Hao smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Zhao, don't say that." With that, Wei Hao took Zhao Baliang to visit the ecological vegetable garden.
The scale of the ecological vegetable garden is nearly 100 acres, which is not smaller than Zhao Baliang's flower base. The vegetables from the ecological vegetable garden should be supplied to all the supermarkets and most hotels under Zhao Baliang. As for some hotels outside the province, this fresh vegetable has not been delivered yet, but these are also being planned.
Wei Hao's management ability is beyond doubt, and after a walk around the ecological vegetable garden, Zhao Baliang was very satisfied with the ecological vegetable garden, and praised Wei Hao again and again, which made Wei Hao a little embarrassed.
In the ecological vegetable garden, Zhao Baliang chatted with many workers in the ecological vegetable garden. Most of these workers, with the exception of a few managers, are nearby villagers. Zhao Baliang is also from a peasant background, and he has a very common language with them.
In the casual chat with the workers, Zhao Baliang could feel the deep gratitude of the workers to the ecological vegetable garden. Even, some villagers who deliberately blocked the construction of the ecological vegetable garden at the beginning kept saying regretful words.
From the words of the workers, Zhao Baliang knew that Wei Hao was faithfully implementing the regulations they had formulated before, which made Zhao Baliang feel a lot more relieved. After all, Wei Hao manages such a large vegetable garden, if he secretly does something, it will be difficult for Zhao Baliang to find out, and there is no way to do it, Zhao Baliang is short of people!
Fortunately, Wei Hao is a trustworthy person, at least, from the current point of view, Wei Hao has not done anything out of the ordinary.
However, if you want Wei Hao to work diligently in the ecological vegetable garden, Zhao Baliang must find a way to keep Wei Hao. It seems that this matter has to be discussed with Liu Yun and them as soon as possible!
Coming out of the ecological vegetable garden, Zhao Baliang went to Kong Ruixue again. Now, the ham sausage and meat processing factory accounts for a relatively small proportion in Zhao Baliang's planning system, but this is also one of the important industries in his hands, and he will naturally not abandon it.
Seeing that Zhao Baliang was coming, Kong Ruixue hurriedly began to report the recent business situation to Zhao Baliang. Because of the large amount of publicity expenses invested in the early stage, coupled with the change of the brand name, the performance of the factory is not very good. Now, however, the performance of the factory has risen.
If there is no factory, then the local chickens raised by Zhao Baliang and the local chickens raised by the villagers will not be so easy to sell. Although there is a huge demand for local chickens in the market, they can't stand their breeding scale even more!
"Director Kong, since I asked you to be the director of this factory, it proves that I fully trust you. I came to the factory, not to check the performance, but to come and see, you think I have abandoned the factory. Zhao Ba said jokingly.
Kong Ruixue was stunned for a moment and said, "Mr. Zhao, you are really good at joking, such a big family business, you can still say that you don't want it." If you don't want it, then I'm probably the happiest person, our factory has a lot of profits!"
"By the way, Director Kong, do you think that according to the current sales volume, is it necessary for the factory to expand its scale?" Zhao Baliang looked at Kong Ruixue and asked.
Shaking her head, Kong Ruixue said, "Not for the time being." Our scale is large even among similar factories. Besides, blindly expanding the scale, the market can't bear it!"
Zhao Baliang knew that Kong Ruixue must have more say than him in this regard. Leaving from Kong Ruixue, Zhao Baliang went to Zhou Fujun, which was also the main reason why Zhao Baliang came here.
First, it was for the sake of Zhou Xiong's father-in-law, and secondly, it was also to discuss with Zhou Fujun the next plan of the distillery.
Like the previous times, he was not found in Zhou Fujun's office, and Zhao Baliang went directly to the production workshop.
Sure enough, Zhou Fujun was in the production workshop, talking to a few workers. For this traditional liquor brewing technology, Zhou Fujun has been grasping very tightly. Although the winery has invited many famous masters, Zhou Fujun will go to the workshop to keep an eye on it when he has time.
Baijiu brewing, especially those brewed using traditional methods, once there is a slight mistake in the middle, the taste of the liquor will be greatly affected.
Because Zhao Baliang was not wearing special work clothes, he was naturally stopped outside the workshop, so Zhao Baliang had to ask someone to call Zhou Fujun out.
After Zhou Fujun came out, when he saw Zhao Baliang, he hurriedly said, "Baliang, why are you here?"
"Uncle Fu Jun, look at why you went to the workshop again, if you let Zhou Ting know, you can't talk about me. Zhao Baliang said with some distress. Although Zhou Fujun's age is not particularly old, he is old after all.
Glancing at Zhao Baliang, Zhou Fujun said, "How can I be as delicate as you say." After a lifetime of strength, what kind of work is this? Not to mention anything else, how many of those young people can compare to mine?"
"Alright, alright. However, Uncle Fu Jun, you have to promise me that you must take care of your body. Zhao Baliang understands Zhou Fujun's personality, which is very similar to Zhao Xiangqian. I don't accept old age, and I have worked hard all my life, and I can't be idle at all!
Back in the office, Zhao Baliang hurriedly poured water for Zhou Fujun, "Uncle Fujun, I came this time because I want to discuss something with you." ”
"What's the matter, you can tell it. Zhou Fujun asked as he drank water.
Zhao Baliang first said about Zhou Xiong's father-in-law, and then said: "About the expansion of the factory, I want to ask Uncle Fu Jun, your opinion!" Although the current production capacity can fully meet the needs of the market, with the increase in Zhao Baliang's promotion efforts and the market's recognition of Lushui Liquor, the sales volume must be greatly improved.
Putting down the water cup in his hand, Zhou Fujun thought about it for a moment and said, "Eight taels, actually...... I think the scale is not small now, if we expand the scale and the wine can't be sold, what should we do?"
Zhou Fujun has always been worried that the wine will not be sold, which is a problem left over from his previous workshop winemaking. At the beginning, if it weren't for his blind expansion, he would not have made a large amount of wine unsold, which eventually led to the closure of the workshop.
"Uncle Fu Jun, our wine has a good response in the market, and you don't have to worry about sales. Zhao Baliang hurriedly said: "It's mainly the problem of the brewing master, I'm worried that after the scale, there will be a shortage of manpower." "The distillery uses the most primitive brewing method, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but the wine tastes much better than that made by modern techniques. This is also the reason why Zhao Baliang has always adhered to this ancient wine-making process.
It's just that there are too few people who know this kind of brewing technique. Now several masters in the factory are still invited by Zhou Fujun one by one. Although the craftsmanship of these people is not as good as Zhou Fujun, it is not a problem to have Zhou Fujun with him.
Once the scale of the distillery expands, it will involve the problem of manpower, which is the main reason why Zhao Baliang came to Zhou Fujun.
"We have recently brought out a few apprentices, although there are still some deficiencies in craftsmanship, but I think it shouldn't be a big problem. Zhou Fujun looked at Zhao Baliang and said, "If you just add another production workshop, it's no problem at all." ”
With Zhou Fujun's words, Zhao Baliang was relieved. Add a production workshop, and the production capacity will increase a lot, so that Zhao Baliang can make more money!
Seeing that Zhao Baliang was eager to try to expand the scale, Zhou Fujun was very worried, what if Zhao Baliang took his own old path!
"Baliang, if you don't want to expand the scale, let's slow down a little longer?" Looking at Zhao Baliang, Zhou Fujun said.
Zhao Baliang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Uncle Fujun, are there any questions?"
"The problem is no problem, I'm just worried about the sales ......," Zhou Fujun said, and told him about his previous affairs.
Smiling at Zhou Fujun, Zhao Baliang said: "Uncle Fujun, don't worry, there is no problem with sales, and we have now developed low-end categories, and the sales volume is not small." "In the past, the price of green water wine was too high, and ordinary people couldn't afford to consume it, but later, under the suggestion of Zhou Fujun, some low-end categories were developed one after another. It is precisely because of the accumulated reputation of these low-end green water wines that almost all the entire Central and Southern Province now know the brand of green water wines. And Zhao Baliang's next goal is to let Lushui Liquor go out of Central South Province and go to the whole country!
