Chapter 378: Great Expansion

[Recite the URL silently three times. Do you remember it? If you don’t remember, I’ll ask again in the next chapter. It’s best to share it on Facebook for me]

After more than three months, Xu's mother came to the new factory again. She felt that the place had completely changed. It no longer looked desolate and dilapidated.

The young security guard guarding the gate saw a group of people approaching and quickly stepped forward and asked:

"What do you do?"

Xu's mother didn't embarrass the little security guard, she just took off the work permit from her neck and handed it over.

When the young security guard looked at the photo on his work permit, he immediately recalled the information about the company leaders, especially the photo of the big boss. If Xu Ma hadn't been in a wheelchair, he would have recognized it immediately.

The other party quickly saluted Xu Ma:

"Hello, Mr. Zhang!"

Xu Dong took the work permit from his mother and hung it around her neck again. The work permit was indispensable for entering and exiting the factory.

"Is Director Xu in the factory?" Xu Ma asked.

In the past two months, Father Xu spent most of his time and energy on the new factory. Sometimes he even worked overtime too late and simply slept in the factory.

"Director Xu didn't come today."

"Go ahead and get busy!"

Xu Ma waved her hand and dismissed the security guard, then took out her mobile phone and called her wife.

It turned out that Father Xu had gone to the city for a meeting, and Mayor He had invited him, so he probably wouldn't be back in the morning.

"Okay, come back early for lunch."

After hanging up the phone, the group began to enter the factory. The entire factory area was very large. After hearing the news, Yu Maolin, the person in charge of the new factory, directly drove a tour bus over.

"Mr. Zhang, welcome, who are these?"

Xu's mother pointed to her youngest son and introduced: "This is our third eldest child, Xu Dong, Dongfang Dong. He is here for the first time today. Dongzi, this is Mr. Yu, the general manager of the new factory."

"Mr. Yu, hello!"

"Chief Xu, I've heard Director Xu talk about you a long time ago, but I didn't expect to finally meet you today."

As an experienced senior manager, Yu Maolin had already clearly investigated the family background of the big boss's family.

As expected, the person in front of me will definitely be Director Xu's successor in the future, and he cannot be neglected no matter what.

"You're welcome, just call me Xiao Xu."

"No, no, we're only ten years apart at most, so why don't we meet as equals? I'll call you Lao Xu, and you can also call me Lao Yu."

"Okay, Lao Yu." Xu Dong followed suit.

Yu Maolin smiled and nodded.

Xu Ma pointed at Niu Qian and introduced them: "These two are the children of my friend's family. They will come to work in our company in a few days. The main reason for coming here this time is to visit the factory."

"Hello, Mr. Yu! My name is Niu Qian, and this is my girlfriend Su Tong. Please take good care of me in the future."

Although Niu Qian is an honest man, he is not stupid. He did not use Xu Ma's status to "pretend to be powerful", but instead kept his attitude very low, even with a hint of flattery.

"Welcome you two to join the company. Let me tell you the truth, the welfare benefits in our factory are among the best. I believe you two will not regret it in the future."

Yu Maolin encouraged.

"Thanks!"

Su Tong quickly expressed his thanks. Today's trip was really worth it.

Yu Maolin waved his hand, then looked at Xu Ma and asked, "Mr. Zhang, should we walk there or take a car?"

"Let's take the car. My legs are almost healed and I can take the car."

After all, Xu Ma only had a broken calf.

Xu Dong helped his mother get into the car and folded the wheelchair and put it behind the car.

"Mr. Zhang, where should we go first?"

"Let's go to the production workshop first. I heard that you can produce more than 800,000 loaves of bread every day. I want to see the production process." Xu Ma replied.

"Go to Workshop No. 1."

Yu Maolin quickly ordered the driver to drive.

Xu Dong took the opportunity to interject: "Old Yu, how many production lines are there in the factory now?"

"Currently, four have been built and 26 are under construction." Yu Maolin replied.

"Why were so many built at once?"

Xu Dong frowned, disorderly expansion was a taboo, dad had taught him a lesson before, it shouldn't be!

"There was no way. In May, the city suddenly issued a death order."

Yu Maolin explained with a wry smile:

"Before the end of this year, the new factory must reach an annual production scale of two billion pieces, which averages to about six million pieces per day."

Su Tong on the side suddenly became stunned when he heard this number.

Two billion?

What is this concept? On average, for all residents of the capital, each person can get about twenty rations, which is almost equivalent to half a month's rations.

"How to solve the funding problem?"

"What else can we do? We can only get a bank loan. This time it is also guaranteed by the city. A total of two billion yuan has been borrowed. Fortunately, the loan interest rate is relatively low, only 8.6%."

"Calculated by year?"

Yu Maolin nodded. If the inflation rate is taken into account, this loan is almost the same as an interest-free loan, and there is even some profit.

The only restriction is earmarking.

If this capital is invested in other industries, such as deep-sea aquaculture on the high seas, he is sure that he will be able to recover all his investment within two years.

"Have you ever calculated how many years it will take to pay off the loan?" Xu Dong asked.

"It will take at least five years."

"Why does it take so long? Isn't there a bread processing fee? According to your production capacity, you can earn 2 billion yuan a year. Even if you deduct all costs, it should be no problem to pay off the loan in two or three years, right?"

Xu Dong asked doubtfully.

Xu's mother also looked skeptical.

Yu Maolin hurriedly explained:

"Mr. Zhang, Old Xu, you can't calculate it this way.

Among the company's customers, members account for at least one-third. This part not only does not make money, but even loses money.

After comprehensive calculation, the annual revenue is about 1 billion yuan. If you add the operating costs, you can have a net profit of 400 to 500 million yuan, which is good enough."

"Why is the operating cost so high?"

"Old Xu, listen to my analysis. The new factory is expected to recruit 3,000 employees. The salary alone will cost 200 to 300 million yuan a year, plus water and electricity..."

"Wait, that's not right!" Xu Dong shook his head, "Even if There are thirty production lines, so you don't need so many employees, right? "

Yu Maolin nodded: "The production line really doesn't need so many people. Thirty or forty people on each line is enough. The extra people are in the logistics department. "

"What do you mean, we are also responsible for door-to-door delivery?"

"The city plans to add bread to the purchase list of grain stores. We must deliver it to the door, and we must also set up an escort department to prevent accidents."

With the increasing shortage of food rations, these trucks responsible for delivering bread will definitely become the target of those who are interested. Some necessary protective measures are indispensable.

In addition, the employment rate in the capital area has always been high. The city has taken half of the employment quota and is waiting for the full completion of the production line.

In short, the 2 billion loan is not borrowed in vain.

Xu Dong couldn't help but sigh. There is no pie in the sky. There is gain and loss. Five years is five years. As long as the loan can be repaid, it will be fine.

In the next few years, life will be very difficult. I believe no one dares to do anything at this time.

This is no less than self-destruction of the Great Wall!
