Chapter 11 Xiao Yang Xun
Seeing the little Yang Xun carrying a load in front of him to change steamed buns, Zhao Shucheng couldn't help but think of the chicken feathers flying into the sky, Chen Jianghe.
They all started their business and developed step by step, and eventually became a big entrepreneur. However, Xiao Yang Xun is still making small fuss now, relying on his mother to steam buns, go out to exchange them, and make a little profit.
However, Zhao Shucheng knew that such a business method was only the most basic, and Xiao Yang Xun could not do it for too long. Because in the era when there were no self-employed people, such behavior could be considered speculative and would sooner or later be driven away or arrested.
"Your steamed bun is made of flour, don't you want a grain coupon?"
Xiao Yangxun smiled and said, "Use, I will exchange steamed buns for eggs and go to the city to exchange food coupons, because the city eats less. The city eats very little, and it eats less than the women in our country. Go to the city to exchange food coupons, and they have more."
Zhao Shucheng frowned and said, "Your method is not impossible, but this can be considered a speculative move. It would be bad if you are caught."
Yang Xun nodded and said, "I know, so I go there secretly and trade with people in the black market. There is no big problem. But there is nothing we can do about it. Our place is not as good as the Xiao Lei family. Your Xiao Lei family is good, whether it is a brick factory or a breeding farm. I heard that the Xiao Lei family has money to spend every day, meat and fish. Your place is too far away, otherwise I will go to your place to change eggs."
Zhao Shucheng was a little funny when he heard this. In fact, Xiao Yang Xun's business practice is not a difficult thing to understand, it is just a profit of the difference. The reason why he holds Xiao Lei's family is nothing more than a sweet-mouthed person, so that Zhao Shucheng will not hold on to his own affairs.
However, Zhao Shucheng was too lazy to care about these things. After saying a few words to Yang Xun, he turned around and left with Song Yunping.
"This little Yang Xun has been smart since he was a child, but unfortunately he was unable to continue studying."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "In fact, it doesn't necessarily mean that he will have a future if he studies. As the saying goes, the times create heroes. Since he can discover this business opportunity, he will definitely have a future if he will."
After Zhao Shucheng returned to Xiao Lei's house, he discussed with the old branch secretary and others about opening a new brick kiln in the brigade headquarters.
Last time, Zhao Shucheng just mentioned it briefly. In the past two days, the old branch secretary and his men began to calculate the funds needed to open a new brick kiln. After the cost of the new brick kiln and the ceiling was calculated clearly, he was suddenly a little overwhelmed.
This new brick kiln is not the same as the old brick kiln before. The old brick kiln didn't cost much at that time, and it was basically done by the villagers. But this time it was different. The brick kiln factory is a village enterprise and has to calculate the cost of everything they do.
When everyone knew that in addition to the money from the brick kiln factory and the brigade, they also cost tens of thousands of yuan, everyone hesitated. After all, even if the brick kiln factory does not stop working every day, it will take more than a year to make such a profit. Moreover, the profit is not only for the brick kiln factory, but also for the brigade headquarters. After all, the brick and tile factory will basically be in vain in the next few years.
Zhao Shucheng had a different idea. The current production scale of brick kilns is limited, and it is even running at full capacity, which cannot meet the needs of customers. Only when Xiao Lei's family expands the production scale as soon as possible can they meet customer needs faster and earn more money. Moreover, Zhao Shucheng is also very clear that the business of brick and tile factories cannot actually last for a long time. After the clay near Xiao Lei's family is almost the same, unless they go outside to purchase, they will face shutdown sooner or later. However, when purchasing soil outside, the cost is much higher and it is not cost-effective.
"My idea is that while the market is good, we will start the Maxin brick kiln immediately, start construction one day earlier and pay back the capital one day earlier. As for the funding gap, we will go to the credit union to find the Director of Chan to help. After all, our Xiao Lei family's funds have always been in the credit union, and they should also repay us."
However, Leshigen asked hesitantly: "But when will our brick and tile factory pay off such a large loan? After owing such a large amount of money, who can still sleep in peace?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "This problem is not a problem. The brick and tile factory is also a collective industry in the village, so it is impossible to just let the brick and tile factory pay off the loan. The village has abundant funds and can also help repay the loan. Moreover, in October, we will attend the Canton Fair. As long as this time it can be achieved, not only does it not have to worry about the future orders of the bamboo weaving factory, but it can even help the village develop faster."
Seeing Zhao Shucheng's confidence, others couldn't say anything, but the old branch secretary asked Zhao Shucheng to go to the credit union to negotiate the loan.
After Zhao Shucheng came to the credit union, he asked Director Shan to discuss the loan matter. Director Shan looked at him and deliberately asked which bricks in Xiao Lei's family are of good quality or bricks in the county. He also complained that the credit union was preparing to build a house, but he could not get the goods from the brick kiln factory in the county. The county's construction engineering team also had other construction tasks, so the credit union was placed in the back row. Therefore, the current plan for the credit union to build a dormitory can only keep the dormitory on paper.
After hearing Director Dan's words, Zhao Shucheng certainly knew what he meant. He just wanted bricks and tiles, which was not a problem for the Xiao Lei family.
"Director Dan, if you say this, I will not be sleepy. You must also need bricks to build a house. We are not the right one."
"I'm going to borrow money from me, right? I have a request. From today on, all the bricks from your brick kilns will be delivered to me."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Director Dan, you have to have a number of bricks you want. It's not good if you want more or less. You said you want more and more, and I'll transport them to you."
Director Shan said: "Give me 20,000 yuan first and put it here. After our dormitory is built, I will take it to you if it is not enough. But you have to guarantee that I will use it on the same day, and you will have to give it to you on the same day!"
Zhao Shucheng thought for a while and said, "That's it, Director Shan, let me see the drawings for your dormitory construction. I will calculate how many bricks you need. It will be easy to calculate when the time comes. When I was a military soldier, I was a engineer soldier, and I could do all this military project, and this dormitory building is no problem. Let's make clear calculations, don't temporarily take care of me and delay the progress of the project."
Director Shan was very happy when he heard this. He took the drawings directly and handed them to Zhao Shucheng and said, "Look, it's this drawing. What we need is bricks and cement prefabricated boards. The quality of this project must be high, otherwise I wouldn't have waited for the county construction team to do it. I'd have found some masons to start the work."
Zhao Shucheng looked at the drawings and felt that the pattern on it was a bit annoying. After all, he had been engaged in architectural design work seriously, and he was still in the influence of modern architectural design in later generations. Such simple drawings were simply unavailable.
"Director Dan, you are just an exterior pattern, and the internal structure inside can't be seen at all. Let's change it for you, and the internal structure can be seen. Our employee dormitory is a single room or a room with several bedrooms? This has to be agreed in advance, otherwise it will be very troublesome to renovate it later."
Director Shan was stunned when he heard Zhao Shucheng's words and said, "What are there so many tricks here?"
Zhao Shucheng nodded, and then gave Director Dan a lecture on the differences between general single dormitories, two bedrooms and one living room, three bedrooms and one living room, etc., as well as some plans to be planned based on existing drawings.
Director Dan heard Zhao Shucheng's introduction and looked at the architectural design drawings temporarily drawn by Zhao Shucheng, and immediately felt very satisfied. He originally thought that he would just build a tube building, but now every room has its own bathroom. This day is very beautiful.
Director Shan looked at Zhao Shucheng and said, "I said Dongbao, you said you can build a house yourself. Your brigade has bricks, why don't you think about setting up a construction team by yourself? Otherwise, I will lend you an extra 5,000 yuan, and the 5,000 yuan is used for the special purpose, so I will buy this equipment for building a house. How about it? This house is also handed over to you, but I have a requirement. You have to build a house for me within half a year. Next year, my son will have to marry, and this daughter-in-law must live in a public housing before she can get married."
After thinking about it, Zhao Shucheng nodded and agreed. In fact, Zhao Shucheng had plans to form a construction engineering team before, but most of the people who purchased bricks and tiles were farmers from all over the countryside. There were brick makers in their own villages, so it was impossible for them to hire a special construction engineering team. Most of the construction projects in the county were contracted by the county construction engineering team. If there was no suitable opportunity, even if Zhao Shucheng formed the team, he would not be able to participate.
This time, the construction of the dormitory of Director Dan and their credit union is an opportunity. As long as the construction engineering team formed by Zhao Shucheng can be completed well, other county people will not lack orders in the future.
"Director Shan, thank you so much, but Director Shan, this five thousand is not enough. For half of the construction equipment, some large equipment are expensive."
Director Shan looked at Zhao Shucheng in surprise after hearing this, and said, "No, Dongbao, what other equipment do you need? I have inquired about the equipment of this county construction team, and it is only the price."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Director Shan, I am not just for the purpose of completing the dormitory of our credit union early and perfection. I think so. Although the equipment of the county construction team is good, most of them are carried by people on their shoulders, and the efficiency is still a little worse than that of the machinery."
Director Shan looked at Zhao Shucheng hesitantly and said, "Dongbao, you won't be talking big, ask me for money for a tower crane, right? I tell you, our credit union can't afford such a large sum of money."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Director Shan, you are kidding. Even if you can grant us such a large sum of money, we can't afford it in a short time. I think so. We can't use large cranes, but we can improve some small cranes by ourselves, at least some bricks and tiles, which can be directly lifted from the rooftop to avoid carrying the carry on the shoulders, or pushing them slowly into it with a small cart. I have specific plans and mechanical manufacturing techniques, but I lack the money to purchase motors."
Director Shan hesitated for a while and finally granted Zhao Shucheng some money to build equipment as soon as possible and then start construction of the dormitory building of the credit union.
This time, Zhao Shucheng became even busier. Not only did he have to lead the villagers to build a new brick kiln, but he also organized other strong laborers in the village to train the skills of construction projects.
After all the equipment was all, Zhao Shucheng took the construction team directly to the land planned for the credit union dormitory of the county. At first, Xiao Lei’s construction team attracted a lot of people, but after watching it for a long time, there was nothing special. However, after the cement prefabricated board on the second floor, Zhao Shucheng and others installed the small cranes they made on the second floor, and the construction speed suddenly accelerated a lot.
Because this is the first order business of the construction team of the Xiao Lei family, Zhao Shucheng knew very well that he would only recruit more businesses after the first shot was fired, so he basically lived on the construction site. Only when the Xiao Lei family had something to find him would he come back to take a look and solve the problem.
However, there is really not much happening in the Xiao Lei family. Apart from paying their monthly salary, they are basically busy.
Although Lei's mother was anxious to hold her grandson, her son was far away in the county construction team, and her daughter-in-law often went to the breeding farm and was not by her side at all. Naturally, she couldn't listen to her nagging, so she could only complain to the lingering women in the village.
Even if Zhao Shucheng and Song Yunping occasionally heard these news from Sibao, they just smiled and didn't care about these gossips. Song Yunping was very busy at work in the farm, especially when the female rabbit was about to give birth to a baby in the new round, so she was so busy that she almost couldn't even take classes from TV University.
I have to say that Zhao Shucheng is indeed very good at managing the construction team. Soon the construction of the credit union was completed, which was much earlier than expected.
Director Dan was worried about the quality of the construction at first, but after asking someone to take a look, the quality was not worse than that of the county construction team, and it was even better.
Now the reputation of the Xiao Lei Family Construction Team has spread. Not only is the house beautifully built, but it is also faster than other construction teams. After hearing about it, many units in the county that have dormitory buildings were built, they took the initiative to invite the Xiao Lei Family Construction Team to build a house.
However, after this time, the construction team of the Little Lei family has been trained and Zhao Shucheng no longer needs to focus on the construction site every day.
Sibao knew that Xiao Lei’s construction team made more money than brick and tile factories, so he was a little jealous and hoped to be transferred from the transportation team to the construction team.
Zhao Shucheng frowned and looked at Sibao. After thinking for a while, he felt that Sibao was really smarter, so he should add a burden. However, the construction team needs to strictly control the quality, so he was not worried about Sibao. So he simply asked Sibao to set up a prefabricated plate factory in the village. He went to other cement prefabricated plates to learn about it. In the future, Xiao Lei's family sold cement prefabricated plates by themselves, and the construction team also purchased goods directly from the prefabricated plate factory to avoid others raising prices.
Sibao was naturally very happy to hear that she became the factory director, so she told Zhao Shucheng the news she had heard in the village during this period. In fact, it was nothing more than Lei’s mother’s gossip about Zhao Shucheng and Song Yunping, and Lei’s mother occasionally bullying Song Yunping.
Chapter completed!
