Chapter 1654: Qingdao No. 1
"Sixth brother! Come and see our new factory!" When Shen Long arrived in Jinan, it happened to be the opening day of the new spinning factory. Miao Handong cheerfully welcomed him in and took him to visit the factory. Get up, "Look at our new machine, the cloth weaves is fast and good! I asked the cashier to calculate, even if it is shipped to Qingdao, it will be cheaper than Japanese cloth!"
"That's only the case under Brother Miao. If it is given to someone else, it will probably be more expensive than Japanese cloth!" Shen Long replied, Jinan is no better than Qingdao. No one collects taxes in Qingdao. The warlords in Jinan are desperate. It is also thanks to the fact that Miao Handong is a banner of Shandong businessmen to squeeze the local people, and ordinary people dare not provoke him, otherwise the expenses would be overwhelming.
Paying taxes according to the regulations is a matter of course, but these warlords will not collect taxes in full accordance with the law. They just think about it. If they want to fight that warlord today and have no military pay, then they will collect a wave and marry tomorrow. The seventh wife, and another wave of acceptance, under such a situation, it is no wonder that the life of the businessmen can be easier.
Without a stable environment, it is difficult to do business, and it is even more difficult to do business seriously; hey, I can still stay in Qingdao right now, and when the little devils occupy the Northeast in the future, I can only come to Jinan and Heilongjiang. Miao Handong got mixed up together, and he would naturally encounter these problems at that time. Thinking about it, it's really a bit of a headache.
"Actually, if Qingdao's spinning mill is rebuilt like this, the cost will be even lower!" Miao Handong still feels a little regretful, at least from the current point of view, Qingdao is more suitable for the development of the textile industry, "But what you said is also true. , put such a good thing under the eyes of the little Japanese, they are sure to be able to do anything, such a good machine can't be kept!"
After seeing the factory, Miao Handong was going to take Shen Long home, "Sixth brother, you stay in Jinan for a few more days, and when my factory has enough of the first batch of goods, you can take them back to Qingdao by the way! How much do you want in the future?" Send a telegram directly, and I will send it to you right away!"
"Even if Brother Miao doesn't say anything, I have to stay with you for a few days this time!" Shen Long replied with a smile, and when they arrived at Miao Handong's house, the two chatted while drinking. I told Miao Handong once, and then concluded, "This must be a good thing, but I don't feel at ease staying in Qingdao. I discussed it with Jiaju, and I want to work with Miao Ge on this matter. I don't know Miao Brother, what do you think?"
"Really so crazy?" Miao Handong couldn't turn the corner for a while, you made a new dye, and this dye can cure tetanus? Why does this sound so unreliable?
"Well, this can be regarded as a surprise!" Shen Long nodded and said, "Afterwards, I asked someone to try it, not only tetanus, but also tuberculosis can be cured, and there is a worker in our factory whose wife gave birth to a child Afterwards, the fever persisted, and the doctor took some of this medicine in an emergency, and it turned out to be curable!" This is puerperal fever.
Hey, it's a pity that Bai Qiye is not in Shandong right now, otherwise this recipe would be fine if he was handed over to him! "I also brought some samples when I came back this time. Brother Miao can find a trustworthy doctor and give them to the patients. Let's talk about it after we see the effect!"
"Sixth Brother, what do you mean by this? Brother Miao can't trust others, can't he trust you? If you say this, you will be offended!" Miao Handong scolded Shen Long, but at Shen Long's insistence, he still called for a doctor , secretly conducted this experiment, and the result of the experiment shocked Miao Handong.
"This is really a good thing. If this medicine can be made, it can save countless lives!" Miao Handong immediately thought of the problems he would face after starting to produce this medicine, but for the people of Shandong and the people of China , he still decided to do it, and then repeated the old saying, "Sixth Brother, I think you and Jia Kui should come to Jinan and forget it!"
"You may be a little upset when I say this. How much money can you make by opening a dyeing factory? How much can we make by opening a pharmaceutical factory? You should be able to settle this account? When you two arrive in Jinan,
Let's make this pharmaceutical factory bigger together! "
"I've been in the dyeing workshop for more than ten years. I feel uncomfortable when I leave the dyeing workshop. Let's forget about it! I'll just give the recipe to Brother Miao. Brother Miao, let me be lazy. Will it work?" Shen Long once again declined, he will indeed come to Jinan in the future, but it is not this time.
"Hey, let me tell you what you want!" Miao Handong pointed at Shen Long and shook his head again and again, "Okay then, this business is considered to be a partnership between me and you and Jia Kui, you provide the prescription, and I pay for the land To build a factory and recruit workers, we will get 37% when we earn money, I will get 30% and you and Jia Kui will get 70%!"
"Brother Miao, this can't be done, let's get half of each of us!" Both sides pushed back and forth, and finally settled on four or six points, with Miao Handong getting 40% and Shen Long and Lu Jiaju getting 60%; so It's reasonable to do it. Although it doesn't cost much to buy land, build a factory and recruit workers, Miao Handong can keep the business from being taken away by others. This value is irreplaceable.
After finishing this work, Shen Long returned to Qingdao with the new cloth. Seeing that Shen Long and Sun Mingzu had reduced their purchases at his place at the same time, Fujii immediately became anxious. He shouldered the important task of opening up overseas markets for Japan. It was hard to get these two big customers, but they didn't buy them!
"Mr. Chen, we have been working together happily before, why did you suddenly change your mind?" Fujii hurriedly found Shen Long and asked.
"Fujii, we had a good time working together before, but you are also a businessman, and businessmen are all after profit. Now I can buy cloth with the same quality as yours, but the price is cheaper than yours. Who cares about this? Everyone will change their minds, right?" Shen Long expressed his innocence.
"It's impossible!" Fujii didn't believe it at all. You must know that during this period Japan's crushing of textile workers was much more severe than that of China, and it was no worse than that of Britain's crushing of child labor. Moreover, their factories were larger in scale and more efficient in production. , Many of China's textile factory machines are imported from Japan. Maybe our cost is lower than Japan's?
It's a pity that he didn't expect Shen Long to hang up. When Shen Long took out the account book, Fujii was completely speechless. The price offered by Miao Handong was indeed lower than him.
With cheaper raw materials and Shen Long's modified machines, the price of finished cloth in Dahua Dyeing Factory has been lowered again, so that more people can afford this kind of cloth. Here, Dahua's Flying Tiger brand and Yuanheng's Zhanqiao brand were all sold out.
Within two years, Dahua Dyeing Factory surpassed Sun Mingzu's Yuanheng Dyeing Factory and became the largest dyeing factory in Qingdao.
