Throughout November, in addition to the routine purchase of fruits and practicing a series of martial arts such as "Nine Yang Magic", Wu Siyuan spent most of his time looking for suitable stores, decorating them, and recruiting new employees. .

It was not until November 18 that Wu Siyuan decided on the last store of Shennong Orchard, signed the contract, paid the deposit, and contacted the decoration team to move in.

These newly selected stores are all within ten kilometers of Xingye Community and are located in locations with high traffic flow. However, correspondingly, the rents are not cheap.

Then, Wu Siyuan discovered that when his chain of fruit stores reached five stores, he was bound to add cold storage - fresh-keeping cold storage.

Because there are more employees, more stores, and the amount of fruit has increased, he cannot keep the fruit supply in Shennongjiao Space at 70% as before.

People will see it.

When others see it, you only purchase a small amount of fruit at the fruit wholesale market, but then ship so many fruits to various terminal retail stores. Even a fool can tell that there is something fishy.

Moreover, as the number of stores in [Shennong Orchard] increases, the fruit in [Shennong Corner Space] cannot be supplied.

In the end, the proportion of fruits supplied in the real world will definitely increase.

In the past, [Shennongjiao Space] accounted for 70%, and real-world fruits accounted for 30%.

Now it is estimated that it has to be the other way around, or that the [Shennongjiao Space] accounts for 35% and the real world fruits account for 65%, so that no one will notice the flaws.

However, in this way, Wu Siyuan's gross profit will definitely drop significantly.

Although the profit will definitely be higher than that of ordinary fruit shops.

Moreover, as the actual supply of fruits increases, cold storage is necessary to preserve freshness.

After Wu Siyuan purchased a large amount of fruits before, he could put most of the fruits into the [Shennongjiao Space] to keep them fresh, but that is not possible now!

As the saying goes, if there are too many people, others will see the problem.

Others may wonder, if you purchase so much fruit and don’t even use the cold storage, is there something wrong with it? Did you use any illegal means?

Therefore, cold storage is needed, otherwise, the loss of fruit would be enough for Wu Siyuan to drink a pot.

The function of the cold storage is to maintain the low temperature that the fruits are adapted to, so that the storage time can be longer.

In order to maintain low temperatures, the cold storage walls must use insulated storage panels and rapid panels at the bottom to prevent moisture and heat, so as to control the incoming heat from the outside to the greatest extent.

The fruit cold storage building must prevent the diffusion of water vapor and the penetration of air.

The basic principle of fruit preservation cold storage is to utilize the characteristics of water to release or absorb a large amount of latent heat during solid-liquid phase change.

The fruit and vegetable fresh-keeping cold storage uses water as the base, which is reflected in the form of ice in winter. At the same time, it uses the large amount of latent heat released during freezing to keep the fruits and vegetables in the storage from freezing damage.

In summer, this ice is used as a cold source to maintain the low temperature and high humidity conditions required for fruit and vegetable storage.

However, the construction cost of cold storage is not low.

To build a fresh-keeping cold storage, the normal temperature is -5℃~-15℃, and the cost alone is between 150,000 and 200,000.

And that’s not even counting the cost of renting the venue!

At least it is estimated to be 250,000.

Also, after the cold storage is established, sorting personnel should also be needed. Otherwise, if you still rely on Wu Siyuan to sort things like before, he will be exhausted to death!

In addition, as the distribution area expands, it is no longer feasible to rely on electric tricycles for cargo transportation.

Not to mention a refrigerated truck, at least a van or small truck is required.

Even if you buy it second-hand, this is tens of thousands of dollars to throw away.

Adding up all kinds of expenses, Wu Siyuan estimates that he can't make it without 600,000 yuan.

There is also a reserve of 100,000-200,000 as working capital.

In other words, Wu Siyuan must have at least 700,000 to 800,000.

And how much money does Wu Siyuan have on hand now?

In October, Wu Siyuan earned more than 220,000 yuan from the two stores of [Shennong Orchard] Shigang Branch and [Shennong Orchard] Xingye Branch.

November is not over yet, but judging from the current situation, Wu Siyuan should be able to earn 200,000 yuan.

However, as of November 20, Wu Siyuan's profit from the two stores was only 130,000 yuan.

However, Wu Siyuan spent 150,000 yuan on just the rent, deposits, and advance payment for decoration of three new stores.

In other words, Wu Siyuan currently has only about 200,000 yuan in funds at his disposal.

200,000 yuan is not necessarily enough to build a standardized cold storage, let alone expenses such as buying a car.

In addition, he cannot spend all the money on hand, and must leave a certain amount for the daily operations of the two stores.

In a word - Wu Siyuan felt that he was short of money!

I used to earn several thousand yuan a month and when life was tight, I thought about how great it would be to earn tens of thousands a month.

Later, I earned tens of thousands a month, and then I longed for a life where I could earn tens of thousands a month, and then a hundred thousand a month.

After finally achieving this, when I was earning more than 200,000 yuan a month, I found that the money was still far from enough.

In fact, what is not enough to spend is human desire!

Wu Siyuan now feels like he's taking too big a step and tearing his balls.

If he had listened to Lin Meiyi's words and not expanded so fast, first opening a new store, then building a cold storage, and then configuring cars, step by step, Wu Siyuan believed that he would have been much more calm and would not be as urgent as he is now.

But in this way, the speed is a bit slow.

Wu Siyuan opened three new stores at once. Although they are not open yet, they have already involved people from all walks of life. The influence of the nameless iron ring has greatly increased, and it seems that it is about to reach a critical line. This is the most gratifying thing for him in this period of time. The results were achieved.

Although funds are very tight, we cannot stop.

Wu Siyuan must settle the cold storage matter as soon as possible.

He began to shuttle through the streets and alleys again, looking for a suitable location for cold storage construction.

This is much harder to find than looking for a store, the key is still to be suitable.

Wu Siyuan searched for ten days. On December 1, 2012, he found a barely suitable warehouse 1.7 kilometers away from the Shennong Orchard Shigang branch.

Then we have to negotiate the terms, sign the contract, contact the cold storage construction company, tell the requirements, conduct on-site inspections, sign the contract, pay the project payment in advance, and the engineering team moves in...

The nameless iron ring in Wu Siyuan's hand lit up again.
