Chapter 15 Scaling up
After just having a small meeting, Jiang Miao and her brother-in-law went to the Yanding Village Breeding Farm again.
in the car.
Jiang Miao asked: "Brother-in-law, ask me to come over and help in the company cafeteria! I will pay to buy you a house in Magong Town."
"Isn't this bad?"
"Then even if I lend it to you, if you live in the village, there will definitely be many people looking for you to do things with in the future." Jiang Miao reminded.
The brother-in-law immediately realized that the good business of the company has not spread yet, but this matter cannot be hidden for long.
In fact, this is the reason why Jiang Miao does not recruit local and experienced employees for purchasing and finance. Li Xinhua, who manages the cannery, is not from Hailufeng, but from Chaozhou.
He was guarding against the local people's intricate network of relationships and preventing them from colluding with local snakes.
Although foreigners and novices are inexperienced, at least they will not receive kickbacks and will not have the local connections of Hailufeng.
Before Jiang Miao's company opened, he asked his parents to move to the company headquarters temporarily because he was worried about the intricate network of relationships in the village.
When the seven aunts and eight aunts come to recommend him, it will be difficult for his parents to refuse them all, and it is not easy to manage these relatives.
So far, except for his brother-in-law and parents, who he knows very well, he has not notified any of his other relatives, nor has he thought of letting them join the company.
Today I remind my brother-in-law that the purpose is to prevent it before it happens.
"I will discuss it with your sister tonight."
Come to the breeding farm.
The group of people came to the indoor breeding area.
The third batch of 10,000 eels has entered the breeding pool and is waiting for metamorphosis and development. It is estimated that they will lay eggs in one and a half months.
There are currently 57,000 eels left in the open-air fish pond. In addition to the 7,000 male eels left for breeding, the remaining 50,000 eels can be sustained for about ten months if the rate is 10,000 in two months.
15.2 million glass eels are produced every two months. This scale seems very large, but in fact, 15.2 million glass eels, based on the specification of 0.1 grams each, is only 1520 kilograms.
At present, the annual catch of wild glass eels is decreasing year by year. This year, the catch of wild eel fry is only less than 35 tons.
And there is a problem with this 35-ton catch.
For example, glass eels caught in the Mariana Trench usually weigh about 0.1 grams per tail; while leaf eels caught near the estuaries of the Pearl River and Yangtze River usually weigh about 0.5 grams per tail.
According to the information collected by Jiang Miao, hundreds of tons of eel fry could be caught every year during the peak period in East Asia.
This means that Hailufeng's current production capacity is not enough to meet the market, and it must expand its scale at least ten times before it can barely meet the demand for eel fry in East Asia.
In addition to East Asia, Western Europe is also the largest consumer of eel fry in the world, consuming hundreds of tons every year.
However, in Western Europe, eel fry are cooked directly instead of cultured.
Therefore, Jiang Miao's next focus is to eat the largest piece of cake in the East Asian market.
Although he is very clear that once a large number of Hailufeng's eel fry are put on the market, the price of eel fry will inevitably drop.
But Hailufeng Company has no choice. If the price of eel fry remains high, other fry breeding companies will inevitably lose competition.
Therefore, we must first capture the early market with the highest profits, and then gradually lower the price to make other companies unprofitable, thus preventing other companies from entering the market.
"Brother-in-law, the next batch will be expanded to 20,000 female fish, and the purchase of mature eels will also be increased. We need to drink all the head soup."
The brother-in-law nodded: "That's right, we can't be slow now, we must make a quick decision. I will contact the nearby breeding farms immediately to see if there are any suitable ones."
Jiang Miao thought for a while: "About 1,500 per mu is acceptable."
"Okay, I'll try my best." The brother-in-law hurriedly went to find the owner of the surrounding fish pond.
Jiang Miao contacted his cousin Jiang Yao and Lao Huang from the factory supporting equipment company and asked them to take time to come to the breeding farm to discuss the construction project of the next indoor breeding farm.
The two of them didn't delay and drove to the door that afternoon.
However, Jiang Miao was shocked when she saw her cousin, because his eyes were sunken, with black eye bags and bloodshot eyes.
"Brother Yao, what's going on?"
"Hey, don't mention it. I've been suffering from gout attack after staying up late and eating late-night snacks these past few days."
Lao Huang on the side also lamented that life is not easy: "When people reach middle age, all kinds of problems come to their doorstep."
Suddenly Jiang Miao frowned slightly.
[Status: Hyperuricemia, acute gout, 37 tophi in the feet, hyperlipidemia, moderate fatty liver, gallbladder polyps, cystitis...
The body contains foreign artificial drug ingredients glucocorticoid "dexamethasone" (blood concentration...), "dexamethasone acetate" (blood concentration...)...(expandable)]
‘What’s going on? Are you taking glucocorticoids? And there are two kinds? ’Jiang Miao was shocked, and he quickly asked:
"Brother Yao, have you taken your medicine?"
"I took the medicine that my wife prescribed from an old doctor in Gonghe Town. His medicine is made from the roots of a tree. I heard it is a secret recipe passed down from ancestors. It is not harmful to the body and has good effects. I suffer from gout. Eat it and it will work immediately.”
Jiang Miao was speechless for a moment, but he couldn't say it directly, so he asked: "Brother Yao, do you have that medicine on you?"
"Yes, I took one packet in the morning, and now I have five packets left." Jiang Yao said as he took out a sealed bag from his trouser pocket, which contained 5 small packets of medicine.
"I'm not too worried. Don't take this medicine for the time being. Give me two packets and I'll ask my friend to help test it." Jiang Miao took out two packets of powder from the sealed bag.
"Is there really a problem?" Jiang Yao also became nervous.
Jiang Miao also expressed his speculation: "After all, pure plant medicinal materials, except for contraband drugs such as opium, are difficult to have immediate effect. I suspect they are hormone drugs or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs."
Hearing this, Jiang Yao also broke into a cold sweat: "Then let's check it out. No matter whether there is a problem or not, I just want peace of mind."
"Don't worry, the results will be out in two or three days." He turned to look at Li Wenna: "Wenna, I will send these two packages of medicinal powder to you by express delivery later. I will send you the address and recipient information via WeChat."
< br>
"Okay, boss." Li Wenna took the medicine bag and put it in the side pocket of her briefcase.
Jiang Miao reminded her cousin again: "Brother Yao, go to the hospital if you are sick. Don't just believe in those wild lies. After the discussion is over, go to the hospital for a checkup."
"I'll go later." Jiang Yao was also a little scared.
Half an hour later, Jiang Miao and the two of them agreed on the next project, which is to build an indoor breeding base of 20 acres.
The price is still based on the previous standard, which is 10 million yuan for basic engineering and 7.2 million yuan for supporting equipment, for a total of 17.2 million yuan.
After negotiating the contract, my cousin hurriedly went to see a doctor, and Lao Huang also said goodbye and left.
Jiang Miao sent the address and contact number to Li Wenna and asked her to send the express delivery as soon as possible.
Then he picked up WeChat and sent a message to a blogger he had met before. The other person was a blogger Jiang Miao met at Station B. He specialized in drug clinical research, focusing on gout drug types. He also accepted paid advice on the Internet. Drug testing.
Soon the doctor's studio assistant got back to him. Jiang Miao told the other party about the situation and also sent him the cost of the commissioned inspection.
Although he could see the specific ingredients of the medicinal powder at a glance, there was no way to say this directly. He had to give a specific inspection report to make a final decision.
This incident also reminded him that he should pay attention to the medicines used by the elderly at home, especially those so-called quick-acting folk miracle medicines, and he should be more alert.
