Text Chapter 662: Earn Money, Orchard
The log-colored buildings in the farm, there are a few red pine and fruit trees outside, and two simple flowers, but it looks very beautiful. A jumping creek waded not far away, bringing two or three words. However, watching the drop from the sky, this scene is still a good enjoyment.
Allen took Jessie Zhou, who had shattered his fantasy, to visit the office area. The farm office area also has a country cowboy style, and most of the employees are locals. After all, these things are not difficult. If local people are invited, it will be more stable, and it will be more conducive to the stability of the company's farm.
Although it is difficult to find a job now, it is also difficult to find an easier job in the United States. Not to mention the jobs, but the employment rate is also very low, and most people who come here cherish their jobs. According to the old calendar, the salary of the farm is much higher than that of the surrounding people, which is also for the tax benefits.
Alan looked at Zhou Jiexi who was a little curious, smiled and said to him: "This is our department in charge of specific things, this is the business department, and they will arrange and receive the farm when the auction is held."
Zhou Jiexi looked at the few people who stood up. Their workshop is not the kind of small grid. It is the kind of open large table work point. Everyone occupies a large position, and a computer is placed in front of them.
He smiled and nodded to these people. Among them, there were men and women, and their ages were also different, but they looked very energetic. This is what he likes. He used to feel a little bit dormant, but because of his arrival, he felt a lot more youthful.
"The business with Baoziwang in the farm, as well as other businesses, are also in charge of sorting them out." Allen continued. "This is the fruit and vegetable department, responsible for fruits and vegetables."
"Fruits and vegetables?" Zhou Jiexi looked at Alan questioningly, "Aren't our vegetables mostly for my Baoziwang, or Western restaurants?"
"No, it turns out that Steamed Bun King is a vegetable we bought here, but the logistics department over there thinks that the price of our vegetables is too high, and the green vegetables from other farms taste the same. Only the seasoned vegetables are made by The farm is in charge. Others we buy from other farms, and they pay the wages." Allen explained to Jessie Zhou.
"The western restaurant still uses ours. My father said that he doesn't care about the high price, and they sell more. It is not the same concept as Baozi King, and there is a big difference in consumption.
Zhou Jiexi understood a little bit, the company is big, even though it is a family, but it still has to settle accounts, if you are expensive, it is expensive, we can't afford it, the company has to control costs. After all, it is the executives of the company who need to be in charge, and it is up to them whether they are doing well or not.
If they didn't want to do it themselves, Jessie Zhou wouldn't use them either. Can't afford to get paid? His Zhou Jiexi's money didn't come from the wind. So we don't want some expensive ones, because we can find substitutes. Either the person in charge of your farm will reduce the price, otherwise we really can't afford it.
The farm is not stupid, the price is this price, it was agreed at the beginning. If you can't afford it, then buy some that you can afford. You Baoziwang want to reduce costs, we also want to increase revenue
But there are a few key things that are indispensable, and the price is high, so Baozi Wang has to accept it. As for the farm, it is estimated that they have found a better market, and Zhou Jiexi didn't say that he wanted the farm for everything. They won't get stuck on not giving a few necessary things.
If you really did that, you would be stupid. Usually, it is just like the interests of the department. Everyone tries to fight for their own side, so that the boss can see their efforts. But some things needless to say, they also know that they cannot sell to others. That is not fighting, but betrayal.
As for Steamed Bun King, it is estimated that they have researched an alternative and cheap one, and the ones on the farm are likely to be sold, so everyone is happy.
"What about our vegetables? Who are they selling to?" Zhou Jiexi didn't know who they bought them for, so he asked.
Alan didn't answer this right away, but asked first, "Boss, do you still remember our experimental orchard?"
"Of course!" Zhou Jiexi knew why Alan would ask such a question. It was because he had seen too little of that orchard, and he hadn't taken care of it in the past few months. But that's not what he wanted to ask, what kind of detour did he have to make with himself.
"We grafted their branches from the fruit trees in the experimental garden to our original fruit trees, and the fruits grown are very good!" Alan became a little excited when he said this.
"Hehe, that's for sure. As I said at the beginning, I have seen his experimental handwriting, but there is just something missing. I made up for him. How could it be unsuccessful? Hehe..." Zhou Jiexi said with a smile said a word.
Allen agreed with Zhou Jiexi's words, and continued: "The best tasting ones are the batch of fruit trees in our experimental garden. At the last auction, I decided to take them over to try. The people who came to bid also liked it very much, and the best batch has been auctioned off, which is six to eight times the market price."
Zhou Jiexi wasn't surprised at all, this was almost a normal thing, and the talents cultivated in the space for grafting were of course very good.
"As for the fruits in the orchard, we also sold them to other people at twice the market price. For the first time, we only signed a one-time contract, but gave them the priority on the same price. In the future, they may They buy from our farm and then sell it.” Allen continued, “We are considering whether to cooperate with other companies or supermarkets, or continue to sell in the form of auctions like this.”
Zhou Jiexi smiled, "Then you have to think about it carefully. Maximizing profits is the most important thing. However, some other factors must also be considered. After all, the sales volume of fruits is relatively large. We are considering long-term sales and certain companies. If we cooperate, it may be more stable.”
"However, we can also open our own specialty store." Zhou Jiexi followed Alan and talked about some ideas he had thought of before. "Of course, I don't know what the best solution is? But you can discuss this point more, I Believe in you, Ellen!"
"We will do our best!" Allen nodded.
Zhou Jiexi followed Alan around the office area, and there were dozens of people. Sometimes when zero-hour work is needed, it will increase to hundreds of people. The two finally sat in Alan's office, each holding a bottle of beer, Zhou Jiexi took a sip and waited for him to speak.
"The farm earned 34.3 million US dollars from the fruit orchard. To be honest, boss, this is the most real money I have ever made when I came to the farm. Our original orchard has now become a living promotion. This machine, this feeling is really great!" Allen said that he was still in disbelief, and it seemed that he was also surprised for a long time at that time.
"So much?" Zhou Jiexi hasn't read the latest financial report yet. The money is in the farm's account and will not be lost without his signature. Financially, it is also supervised by his personal accountant David's team. Responsible, as for supervision, there really is one.
Zhou Jiexi likes to prevent accidents when doing things, and it is necessary to be prepared. The farm is the owner and will supervise the money.
"This is a specific document, take a look!" Allen said that he handed over a document, and Zhou Jiexi opened it dubiously and looked at it. It was really true, and the tens of millions earned were really not wronged.
"Some of our vegetables are now not only supplied to western restaurants. They are sent to these rich people at a fixed time." Allen said here and laughed, "We first allocate the amount of vegetables in the land, according to the output Implement share auction..."
"Okay, I don't need to talk about the specifics, it's enough for me to see the above!" Zhou Jiexi stopped his desire to continue, waving the document and said with a smile. "In terms of farm management, you are more experienced. Although I came up with the idea for the auction, you are now in charge. Compared with me who only worked for one year, you have more experience than me now. gone."
Allen shook his head, "When you are in charge, it is the most perfect and grandest auction. We feel that it is an ordinary auction, but what you hold is an elite auction."
'of course! ’ Zhou Jiexi also agreed with his words in his mind, but let’s be humble? never mind. He originally wanted to hold a big one. Among the four auctions every year, he planned to host one big one. This was something he had thought about at the beginning.
"I just hold the grandest one every time. After all, it is supposed to be the grandest among the four times a year, so you don't have to think that I am so powerful. Hehe...Of course, if this can give you If you have some motivation, I think I will be honored!" Zhou Jiexi joked modestly.
"That would be a motivation!" Allen said quickly.
"Then I'm really honored buddy, you will do well, I believe in you!" Zhou Jiexi didn't mind giving the staff a little compliment, anyway, those words don't cost money, just talking.
"Let's go to the grazing area!" Zhou Jiexi stood up with a beer and said, "It's not my character to read the report here." He didn't feel blushing at all when he said this. Could it be that I am a little annoyed looking at these numbers? ?
It's all money, Zhou Jiexi looked a little passionate.
"Of course!" Allen said, standing up.
"Then let's go and have a look!" Zhou Jiexi said.
Then the two got on the horse, and Alan took Zhou Jiexi to the nearest grazing area here. His farm didn't always let the cattle and sheep stay in one place. Grass also needs to be fertilized and rested, and pastures are also moving.
Their family does not have cattle that are fed food all the time in one area, they are all organic and green cattle and sheep. Cattle and sheep walking freely on the grassland taste healthier and more delicious.
