After the Spring Festival, agricultural machinery products begin to enter the peak sales season.

This time, agricultural tricycles are to be supplied to the whole province. In order to meet the market demand, Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory is also operating at full capacity. Although it does not operate in two shifts around the clock, the production line operation time is more than 12 hours.

In terms of working hours alone, workers in agricultural machinery factories must have worked much harder than those in 996 in later generations.

In terms of sales channels, Li Weidong doesn't have to worry. Agricultural machinery is different from ordinary commodities. Agricultural machinery sales channels rely on agricultural machinery stations under the agricultural machinery department. There are agricultural machinery stations in every township in the country, so agricultural machinery sales channels have already reached the most basic level.

What Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory has to do is produce, transport and deliver goods to agricultural machinery stations.

Early in the morning, Li Weidong came to Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory, walked around the workshop, listened to reports from several workshop directors, and inspected the management situation in the workshop.

It is said that we are inspecting the workshop, but in fact we are also inspecting the professional abilities of several workshop directors.

Li Weidong's industry is getting bigger and bigger, and the management talents under him are becoming increasingly insufficient.

Li Weidong also wanted to recruit some management talents, but management talents were hard to find in China at that time. If it was a large state-owned enterprise or a foreign-funded enterprise, it was possible to recruit ready-made management talents, but for a small business like Li Weidong, it was simply impossible.

Obtain management talents through recruitment.

Therefore, Li Weidong can only tap the potential internally, see if there are any outstanding talents among the workshop directors, and give them some appropriate promotions.

Li Weidong was wandering around the workshop when someone from the office hurried over to report: "Director, Secretary Wu from the subdistrict office is here."

Li Weidong nodded and said, "Please ask Secretary Wu to come to the reception room. I will be there right away."

After a while, Li Weidong saw Secretary Wu in the reception room, and there was a middle-aged man who looked unfamiliar to him next to him.

"Secretary Wu, why didn't you say hello in advance when you came?" Li Weidong greeted him with a smile.

"It only takes about 20 minutes to walk from the street office to your factory. Why should I say hello!" Secretary Wu shook hands with Li Weidong, and then pointed to the people around him: "This is from Tianyuan Town.

Mayor Che."

"Director Li, hello, my name is Che Tengshan." Mayor Che quickly stepped forward and shook hands with Li Weidong.

"It turns out to be Mayor Che. The canned fruits in your town are among the best in the country!" Li Weidong said politely.

"We are just small workshops, far from being the best in the country." Che Tengshan paused and then said, "But this time, I came to visit Director Li really for the canned goods in our town."

"Mayor Che, let's sit down and talk slowly." Li Weidong pointed to the sofa.

After the guests and hosts were seated, Che Tengshan said, "Director Li, the Agricultural Machinery Institute now has an agricultural tricycle. Is it produced by your factory?"

"You mean Fukang agricultural tricycle? That's produced by our factory." Li Weidong nodded.

"Do you rent out this agricultural tricycle?" Che Tengshan asked again.

Li Weidong was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Che Tengshan meant at all.

Che Tengshan then explained: "Director Li, you also know that the main industry of our Tianyuan Town is the production of canned fruits. In order to make purchasing fruits more convenient, our town has set up a fruit purchasing team to go to various villages.

Purchase the fruits and bring them back to our Tianyuan Town for use by the cannery.

The fruit trees in our town are mainly planted in the mountains, so our fruit purchasing team spends a lot of effort going into the mountains to harvest fruits every year.

The transportation conditions in the mountains are not good, and it is not easy to transport fresh fruits. Especially in some ravines, the cost of transporting the fruits may be higher than the cost of the fruits themselves.

But now that you have your agricultural tricycle, it has become much easier to go into the mountains to collect fruits. Even in those villages with almost no roads, if you drive an agricultural tricycle, you can go back and forth in one day. So in our town

I am thinking about buying a batch of agricultural tricycles so that I can go into the mountains to buy fruits in the future.

However, our fruit purchasing brigade is commercial in nature and is not an ordinary agricultural producer. According to national regulations, it does not meet the conditions for subsidies for purchasing agricultural machinery, so it cannot buy agricultural tricycles at subsidized prices.

We in Tianyuan Town are not rich either. If we are asked to buy a batch of agricultural tricycles with full payment, we cannot afford that much money, so I can only come to Director Li to see if we can rent a batch of agricultural tricycles to us.

Let us go into the mountains to buy fruits. We can easily discuss the rent."

Li Weidong pondered for a moment and then asked: "How many agricultural tricycles do you need?"

"One hundred units, no matter what!" Che Tengshan said, secretly taking a look at Li Weidong's expression, and found that Li Weidong's face was serious, so he immediately changed his words and said, "Eighty units are enough!"

Li Weidong did not answer, but frowned and thought.

Che Tengshan waited for a few seconds and saw that Li Weidong didn't answer, so he continued, "If it doesn't work, sixty units will do!"

Next to him, Secretary Wu from the sub-district office also said: "Director Li, it's really not easy in Tianyuan Town. You also know that there are many mountains in Tianyuan Town, and the whole town is counting on making canned fruits.

.When you help Mayor Che, you are helping the entire cannery in Tianyuan Town, and you are also helping the tens of thousands of fruit farmers in the mountains of Tianyuan Town!"

Li Weidong thought for a few seconds again, and then asked: "Mayor Che, what is the nature of your fruit purchasing brigade? Is it an institution in your township or a cannery in the town?"

"The fruit purchasing brigade was established by our town. The original purpose was to help the town's canning factory purchase fruits. If our town purchases fruits uniformly, the quantity will be larger and the price will be lower. This fruit purchasing brigade uses

It is also the youth of our villages in Tianyuan Town who can also provide part of the employment for the town."

Che Tengshan changed his voice and continued: "However, our town does not have that much money to prepare vehicles for the fruit purchasing brigade, so we mobilized various canneries in the town and each of them contributed part of the money, which can be regarded as investing in individual stocks. This is also

I just bought a few second-hand cars. If I have to talk about the nature, it would be a joint-stock cooperative system!"

"Then what kind of cans do your canneries make now?" Li Weidong asked again.

“Our Tianyuan Town produces peaches, honey peaches, red peaches, yellow peaches, and nectarines, so we mainly make canned peaches. In addition, we also make canned pears, canned oranges, canned hawthorns, canned apricots, and canned grapes.

As long as it's seasonal fruit, we can make it." Che Tengshan replied immediately.

"Other canned food can be said to be fine. Canned yellow peach can be vigorously developed. The canned food tastes better than when it is fresh!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

Fresh fruits in season must taste the best, but there is one exception, and that is yellow peaches. Yellow peaches may be the only fruit that tastes better when canned than fresh.

Hearing what Li Weidong said, Che Tengshan asked with surprise: "Director Li, have you agreed to rent agricultural tricycles to us?"

Li Weidong smiled and shook his head: "I didn't say I wanted to rent!"

"Director Li, you don't want to directly donate a batch of agricultural tricycles to Tianyuan Town, do you?" Secretary Wu asked with a haha.

"Secretary Wu, what are you thinking? I'm in business. If you give it away for free, I'll lose money!" Li Weidong paused and then said: "Mayor Che, I have a plan."

"Director Li, please speak." Che Tengshan said.

"Since your fruit purchasing brigade is a joint-stock cooperative, I also want to take a share. I will use 100 agricultural tricycles to buy shares at a discount. What do you think?" Li Weidong asked with a smile.

Che Tengshan hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Director Li, our fruit purchasing brigade was established to help canneries purchase fruits. It is actually a logistics service provider and does not make money. If you become a shareholder,

You won’t get any dividends either.”

"When investing in this kind of thing, what you focus on is profit, and of course you also need to focus on potential!" Li Weidong chuckled and continued:

"Furthermore, there are at least several thousand poor households in the mountains of Tianyuan Town, right? As long as the fruits from the mountains can be transported out, at least most of these thousands of poor households can be lifted out of poverty. As an entrepreneur, I

, we should also assume social responsibility and make some contributions to our country’s poverty alleviation work!”

Che Tengshan hesitated for a moment again, and then he said: "Director Li, our fruit purchasing brigade only has a few second-hand trucks. If you really buy a hundred agricultural tricycles, you will become the third-hand truck."

A major shareholder!”

"No, I don't deserve to be the largest shareholder! Purchasing fruits and helping farmers in the mountains get out of poverty is something that your Tianyuan Town government can better manage by itself. I just think that I am optimistic about the development of canned fruits in your town and invest in it in advance.

Capital." Li Weidong said with a smile.

After hearing this, Che Tengshan took a deep breath, with an expression of surprise on his face.

He originally thought that the best case scenario would be to rent fifty or sixty agricultural tricycles, and even Li Weidong's direct refusal was natural.

But I didn't expect to get a hundred agricultural tricycles without spending a penny. This is no different from pie in the sky.

As for the shares of the fruit purchasing brigade, Che Tengshan didn't care at all. One hundred agricultural tricycles can go into the mountains to collect fruits immediately after driving back, which is much more fragrant than the shares of the purchasing brigade!

…

In the future, Tianyuan Town will be called the "No. 1 Canned Town". One-third of the canned fruits in the country are produced by Tianyuan Town. This is why Li Weidong is willing to invest in Tianyuan Town.

Tianyuan Town is mountainous, and it is a mountain with a low altitude. The highest one is only more than 600 meters. If you plant fruit trees, it will not be difficult to pick them.

In the early 1980s, some clever farmers in Tianyuan Town began to produce canned peaches by cooking cans in large pots. Later, more and more people began to engage in the canning industry. By the early 1990s,

There are hundreds of canneries and canning workshops in the town.

In the future, when Tianyuan Town is at its peak, there will be more than 500 canned food production and supporting processing companies. However, blind and disorderly expansion has led to disorderly competition, and some black-hearted canneries have abused food additives, which has led to the reputation of Tianyuan Town canned goods.

suffered a well-known blow.

Fortunately, the local town government took action in time, funded and supported some leading enterprises, standardized production, and built an industrial chain, restoring Tianyuan Town's reputation for canned food.

Later, the Tianyuan Town Government established a special raw material procurement platform and an international canned food city, eventually increasing the output value of canned food to more than 10 billion.

For a town, having an industry with an output value of over 10 billion means that the town has become wealthy.

The fruit purchasing brigade organized in this town is the predecessor of the future "raw material purchasing platform" and the source of the entire canning industry chain in Tianyuan Town.

Of course, Li Weidong wanted to get involved in an industry with an output value of over 10 billion.

However, the food processing industry is not easy to do because it affects the health of the people.

If there is a problem with food safety, it is very likely that you will be fined, bankrupt, or even jailed in serious cases.

If you want to work in the food industry, you must devote yourself wholeheartedly. This is to be responsible for the health of consumers and to avoid making mistakes that may harm yourself.

Of course, Li Weidong didn't have so much energy to make food. An electrical appliance factory and an agricultural machinery factory were enough to keep Li Weidong busy, and He Anan had to squeeze out the time to talk on the phone.

So Li Weidong simply took this opportunity to invest in Tianyuan Town's fruit purchasing team.

This fruit purchasing brigade is organized and managed by the town. Li Weidong only provides transportation means. If something goes wrong, Tianyuan Town will be responsible.

In the future, when the fruit purchasing brigade turns into a raw material purchasing platform, Li Weidong can also naturally get involved in this industry with an output value of tens of billions.

For Li Weidong, this is an opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation and establish a strategy in the canned industry. How it operates in the future depends on the right time, location, and people!

Some people say that the plots have been weak recently, but I think it is quite positive to write stories about how life is getting better and better. Recently, there is a new style 2021 event, which involves online articles, so I have made some adjustments in my creative ideas.

, there will be more content about improving people’s living standards, and more about entrepreneurs’ courage to fight and perseverance. By the way, this book has always been very positive, and I am also very good at writing positive stories, so I will continue to be positive.

The style of energy. I hope all readers will understand it!
