Chapter 155 Various Progress (Additional Update)
March 25th.
The temperature in eastern Monan has risen, and there is a hint of spring, but the local wind and sand are still very strong.
Jiang Miao met 47 employees including Lin Yonghua and Lu Mingyuan who came from the headquarters.
Inside the temporary office.
"Boss, I have never managed such a large company, and I am a little worried about betraying the boss's trust." Lin Yonghua's face was full of anxiety.
However, Lu Mingyuan did not show any worry. This may have something to do with his withdrawn personality, or it may be that he is younger and has a broader vision than Lin Yonghua.
After pouring a cup of salty milk tea for the two of them, Jiang Miao said with a smile: "The business of this joint mining company is very simple. You don't need to worry about business problems, because there will be a lot of people coming to you for cooperation in the future. Lao Lin, you have an honest character and are responsible. , I can hold on to the temptation, but I don’t worry about others.”
Lin Yonghua smiled bitterly: "Since the boss trusts me so much, I can only do my best. But boss, if there is a suitable candidate in the future, please arrange for someone else to replace me!"
"Your management work is very simple. You just need to develop step by step according to my plan. You can leave other matters to other management personnel. If you are not sure, you can also communicate with Mr. Jiang and me." Jiang Miao disagreed in her heart.
Although United Mining may achieve tens of billions of profits per year in the future, the company's management is very simple, with only two core businesses: land leasing and mining.
If there is no other business, the management difficulty is not high. Even if you want to develop other businesses, you can also add a business unit manager who is responsible for the new business.
Lu Mingyuan was silent for a moment and asked directly: "Boss, what exactly does this joint mining company do? I read the document you sent, and I'm a little confused."
"This company currently has three main businesses. To be precise, it is two industries." Jiang Miao gave the details one by one:
"One is the desert land reclamation industry. This industry can derive farmland leasing business, agricultural machinery leasing business, soybean planting business, pasture planting business, forage processing business, nutrient soil sales business, etc. Of course, the core is the farmland leasing business."
"Another industry is the mining industry that you are responsible for Mingyuan. It can derive traditional mining business, bio-mining business, fertilizer production business, etc. The core business is bio-mining."
After listening to Jiang Miao's description, Lu Mingyuan still frowned. Although he knew that what he said next was a bit offensive, he still said it bluntly: "Boss, can bio-mining technology really compete with traditional mining at present? If it is gold, silver and copper. Precious metals may be okay, but the price of phosphorus is too low. I’m afraid it will be difficult to recover the money, right?”
"The current cost in the laboratory stage is about three times that of traditional mining." Jiang Miao once again raised the previously exaggerated cost.
"Three times in the laboratory stage?" Lu Mingyuan didn't understand at all: "Boss, where are the main costs consumed?"
Jiang Miao picked up the salty milk tea: "Water, currently biological mining of phosphorus requires 1,200 cubic meters of fresh water per ton of phosphorus, and the mining water charging standard in Monan is 1 yuan per cubic meter, and this type of mining is extremely water-intensive. , local water charges will be doubled ”
"So many? No wonder." Lu Mingyuan frowned.
"I have thought of several solutions and will conduct experiments when I return. If the experiments are successful, the cost can be reduced to about 870 yuan per ton of pure phosphorus."
Lu Mingyuan suddenly thought about his boss's scientific research capabilities, and the doubts in his heart suddenly disappeared. He touched his chin: "If the cost can be similar to that of traditional mining, then according to the boss's idea, hundreds of billions in the northern region Ton of ultra-low-grade phosphate rock has huge value.”
"Anyway, whether it succeeds or not, the results will be available before the end of the year. If the experiment fails, then you can come back to the headquarters, or stay and help Lao Lin manage the joint mining industry."
"Okay." Lu Mingyuan chose to obey the arrangement.
Lin Yonghua watched the two of them finish talking and put down the milk tea: "Boss, what instructions do you have for United Mining's desert land reclamation project?"
"I really want to tell you a few key points."
Lin Yonghua quickly took out a small notebook and ballpoint pen.
Jiang Miao solemnly urged: "The first key point is that in the process of cooperating with local governments, we should not directly use United Mining as the main body to contract deserts. Instead, we should establish a joint venture with the local state-owned assets management company to establish a secondary subsidiary. This subsidiary comes to contract the desert.”
"Do you want it everywhere?"
Jiang Miao nodded slightly: "Yes, both. As long as there is a desert, I will give you a map later. You can talk about the deserts circled on it, but you don't have to come forward and let the Monan State-owned Assets Operation Company send you." Zhao Shuisheng went to talk.”
"Okay, I understand."
Jiang Miao compared two fingers: "The second key point is to classify the enclosed desert into grades one, two and three."
“First-level farmland is a very flat desert sandy saline-alkali land surrounded by abundant water sources or precipitation; second-level farmland is farmland that meets some of the conditions of first-level farmland and can meet the requirements for growing drought-tolerant crops; third-level farmland is an area with scarce precipitation. , such as the desert in western Monan, land that can only be used as pasture.”
Lin Yonghua, who was taking notes, stopped writing, raised his head and asked: "Boss, are the ratings used to set standards for rentals?"
"Yes, the rental price for first-class farmland is 500 yuan per mu per year, for second-class farmland is 300-500 yuan per mu per year, and for third-class farmland is 100-300 yuan per mu per year. This is the rental price without renovation."
“What if it’s farmland after renovation?”
Jiang Miao shook his head: "After the transformation of the farmland, United Mining can operate it by itself. There is no need to rent it out. It is not cost-effective to rent it out."
"I understand."
"The third important point is that except for some management, the relationships of employees of United Mining have been transferred to United Mining. Employees whose relationships have been transferred to United Mining can obtain virtual shares of United Mining, but they cannot obtain virtual shares of Hailufeng Company. .”
This is necessary, and the relevant terms have been set when United Mining was established.
After all, United Mining is not a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hailufeng Company, so it naturally needs to be separated from the parent company to avoid financial entanglement between the two parties.
In the future, Hailufeng's non-wholly owned subsidiaries will be handled in this way.
While facilitating management, it can also prevent Hailufeng Company from having too many fictitious stock holders, which would lead to a large decline in corporate profits.
As for executives of non-wholly-owned subsidiaries like Lin Yonghua, they are still employees of Hailufeng and can continue to hold virtual shares of Hailufeng, which is similar in nature to labor dispatch.
After explaining the relevant matters, Jiang Miao took Li Zixuan, Ke Yong and others and hurriedly took the high-speed train south.
I took the high-speed rail from Zhelimu City at 4 o'clock in the afternoon on March 25 and arrived at Shantou-Mei High-speed Railway Station at 2:30 in the afternoon of the next day. The whole journey took 22 hours.
Back inside.
Shuya, who is raising a baby, now only works four hours a day. The rest of the time is to help Jiang Miao look at the company or teach He Youwei something.
He Youwei's application to become Shuya's doctoral student has been completed. She returned to the capital some time ago and applied for suspension of study at Union Hospital and PBC University.
Shuya, who was reading a book, saw his figure, and her eyes were filled with surprise: "You are back..."
"Don't get up." Jiang Miao threw his coat on the coat rack, then put his arm around Shuya's shoulders: "Have you missed me these days?"
"I miss you so much. Look at how you look now. You're almost turning into a middle-aged uncle." Shuya joked, putting the book on her lap and looking at his face that had been tempered by the wind and sand, with a trace of vicissitudes and vicissitudes. exhausted.
Shuya slowly leaned on his shoulder and slowly talked about the past few days.
And Jiang Miao also talked about what he saw in Monan.
"Originally I wanted to go to Monan with you, but luckily I didn't go now, otherwise my skin that had finally turned white would turn yellow again."
"Haha... let's go there in a few years! When new varieties of soybeans are promoted, there will be much less sandstorms there."
"Don't move." Shuya patted his mischievous hand.
Jiang Miao looked around and suddenly asked: "Why don't you see An Ning and Wen Na?"
"An Ning's sister is getting married these days, and she is going to be a bridesmaid; Wen Na is here to be her aunt, and I asked her to go back and rest."
Jiang Miao pressed her shoulders and arms, and after a while said: "You still need to adjust your diet to avoid postpartum depression."
"How come? I don't feel anything now?" Shuya was a little surprised.
"It's normal not to feel anything now! Your belly hasn't gotten bigger yet, and the fetus is still in the preliminary development stage and has not entered the period of rapid growth. Once it enters the period of rapid growth, your body's nutrient absorption will increase, so you still need to adjust gradually. .”
Shuya nodded slightly: "Okay! You are a professional, I will listen to you."
Jiang Miao stood up and stretched: "I'm going to take a shower and sleep for a few hours in the afternoon. I've been riding in the car for more than 20 hours. Even if I'm in a business seat, I can't bear it."
"You go ahead!"
Before I knew it, the night passed.
The next day, early in the morning.
Jiang Miao, who was resurrected with full blood, took a shower after running and had breakfast with Shuya and her parents.
First go to the salmon breeding base in Nanhu. After a month of recuperation, only 87 of the more than 10,000 salmon of various types died of illness, while the remaining salmon became alive and kicking.
He once again adjusted the food of each of the five species of salmon to strengthen the accumulation of special nutrients in their bodies so that they could successfully spawn this year and produce as much and as healthy salmon roe as possible.
Of course, since the seawater temperature, salinity, and lighting in indoor farms can be adjusted, Jiang Miao actually has the final say on when these salmon will spawn.
Since the construction of Jilongshan Ladder Farm and Zhelang Farm have not been completed, Jiang Miao will not let these salmon spawn so quickly, lest there will not be enough fish ponds for breeding.
After seeing the completed salmon breeding base, he took a bus to the strawberry processing factory in Hongcao Town.
Passing by Yandunshan Farm, the more than 4,000 acres of terraced farms here have all been renovated and planted with beautiful exotic kapok, and many farm workers are grafting these lush and beautiful exotic kapok. Most of them They are all grafting transgenic kapok, and a small number are grafting old branches of Golden Pillow Durian.
As for the alfalfa in Yandun Mountain, due to this year's mild winter and the characteristics of the new varieties, these alfalfas have bloomed and set pods in advance.
Some farm workers are using small alfalfa harvesters to quickly harvest the alfalfa.
Jiang Miao took a look at these alfalfa grasses that could be harvested, and obtained the specific area through the identification panel, which was 1,279 acres in total.
Alfalfa can produce 120 to 150 kilograms of grass seeds per acre. This much grass seed can be sown on 100 acres of land.
Read the error-free version at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.
In other words, the 1,279 acres of alfalfa seeds in front of us can be sown in about 120,000 acres more.
In addition, several other farms, including the Gannan branch, have a total of nearly 5,000 acres of alfalfa, which will soon mature in May and June, and enough grass seeds can be obtained to plant 600,000 acres.
By then, all farms and the newly established Monan Branch will be able to obtain enough alfalfa seeds.
Jiang Miao didn't worry too much about alfalfa seeds. After all, they were harvested during the mature stage, and the obtained grass seeds could expand the planting area a hundred times.
In less than a year or two, there will be more than enough for planting all over the country.
This is the advantage of short-lived herbs, which proliferate very quickly.
Passed Yandun Mountain.
Passed by Xinxiang again.
In the employee community on the roadside, all 50 buildings have been capped off, and rough interior decoration and exterior facade decoration are now being carried out.
Employees who have already booked a house have chosen a house with decoration, and have selected decoration samples, which will be decorated uniformly by Hailufeng Real Estate Company.
For houses that have not been ordered, only the facade will be done. When new employees order houses, they will focus on decoration.
In fact, the profit from this real estate is not bad. Even with fine decoration and a price of 7,500 yuan per square meter, there is still a gross profit of 2,300 yuan.
Among them, the gross profit of the rough house is 1,800 yuan per square meter, and the gross profit of the house decoration is 500 yuan per square meter.
However, taxes must be deducted and part of the company's internal deductions. The final net profit per square meter is about 750 yuan, which means the net profit margin is 10%.
If all 2,700 houses are sold, they can probably earn more than 200 million.
Compared with Hailufeng Agriculture, the profits of Hailufeng Real Estate are basically one day at a time. After all, the eel fry industry of Hailufeng Agriculture can earn a gross profit of more than 300 million a month.
Sure enough, monopolized industries are the most profitable.
If it weren't for the purpose of improving the quality of life of his employees and making them work harder for the company, Jiang Miao would be too lazy to develop real estate. Real estate is really not profitable now.
But it won’t work without development.
Because during the Chinese New Year, Jiang Miao had already heard rumors that housing prices in nearby Jinting Bay were picking up.
If it does not want its employees to work hard to make money and end up being sucked out by real estate companies, then Hailufeng Company can only end up on its own and provide houses for its employees to suppress the occurrence of this phenomenon.
After all, none of those real estate companies are good people. If their employees' money is made by them, Jiang Miao will feel uncomfortable, as if she is working for a real estate company.
Rather than giving discounts to other real estate companies, it is better to let Hailufeng Company build its own houses, which can not only recover employees' wages and bonuses to expand production, but also tie employees to Hailufeng Company.
As for the place, they also had no opinion.
After all, money is earned only by those who make it, and if it is those big real estate developers, they will not keep the money locally when they make money. On the contrary, Hailufeng will keep a large part of the money locally.
Therefore, it is very simple for Hailufeng Real Estate Company to obtain residential land locally.
On the other side of the highway, the upgrading and reconstruction project of Shanma Avenue previously funded by Hailufeng Company is also in full swing.
Since a large underground sewage pipe needs to be laid, it is estimated that the construction period will not be completed until the Mid-Autumn Festival this year.
Across the road from the construction site is the Xiaonanshan headquarters.
At present, the No. 1 office building of the Xiaonanshan headquarters has completed 12 floors, and only 8 floors are left to be capped. It is estimated that the capping will be capped in mid-May, and the renovation will be completed around August.
Then it will be parked for another two months, and it will be ready to move into the new office building by October this year.
Passed the Cheung Sha Wan Expressway intersection.
Just entered the scope of Hongcao Town.
After a while, we arrived at the strawberry processing factory in Xihe Village.
As soon as you get closer, there is a faint smell of vanilla in the air.
Even if the factory's ventilation ducts are equipped with special filtering equipment, there is still no way to 100% filter out the vanilla flavor substances inside the factory.
Fortunately, the smell does not affect health, and it is not a foul smell. The nearest private houses around the factory are five to six hundred meters away, and the vanilla smell has drifted into residential areas and has become very weak.
On the contrary, the vanilla smell inside the strawberry greenhouse next door is very strong and pungent. If you smell it for a long time, you will feel dizzy and nauseated.
In order to prevent the strong vanilla smell from leaking out, these greenhouses are wrapped with several layers of plastic sheets, and the ventilation system is also equipped with special odor removal equipment.
Even if you can smell vanilla in the surroundings, it is a very comfortable concentration.
When Jiang Miao arrived at the factory, Xie Guangsha, the director of the strawberry processing factory, was already waiting for him at the door.
"Guangsha, has the first batch of strawberry powder been produced?"
Xie Guangsha led the way and replied: "Production started a week ago, and 5 batches have been produced so far, with a total of 5 tons of strawberry powder produced."
Since the factory had begun to close for production, Jiang Miao did not go in to join in the fun, but went to the back of the office building next to the factory.
Behind the office building is the storage warehouse. When you open the warehouse door, rows of tinplate buckets are displayed inside, which are somewhat similar to the iron buckets used to hold latex paint, but are much smaller than latex paint buckets.
"Boss, these are the strawberry powder that has been produced. Each barrel is 5 kilograms."
"No small package?"
Xie Guangsha shook his head: "No, although the factory has a small packaging production line, I think there will definitely be few people who will purchase it in the early stage. We will focus on bakeries and ice cream factories first. After opening up the market, we will consider making independent small packaging."
"Well, your considerations make sense."
Jiang Miao tried the prepared strawberry powder again, and the fragrance concentration was indeed almost the same as that of natural vanilla.
In order to dilute the concentration and make the strawberry powder no longer "pungent", a full 2.43 times of matured pure starch was added to make the strawberry powder natural.
Of course, this only smells natural. If you taste it directly in your mouth, the taste is still very strong and will make your tongue feel sick.
This is why this stuff can only be used as a seasoning.
"How does the sales department arrange sales?"
Xie Guangsha scratched his head: "They plan to invite ice cream companies from all over Lingnan in a few days to taste it, and then sell to them."
