Reborn Industrial Tycoon

As early as a few days ago, Qinghe Transportation Company had reached a monthly supply agreement of 5,000 tons of coal with Yankuang.

With the help of Li Weidong, Yankuang found the cause of the hydraulic equipment failure. Although it would cost a lot of money to customize the piston rod protective sleeve and phosphate the fuel tank, at least it was not foreign exchange.

Compared with three million U.S. dollars in foreign exchange, spending several million yuan to solve hydraulic equipment failures is simply a great value.

Li Weidong has helped Yankuang so much. It is not easy to get 5,000 tons of coal a month!

In 1985, domestic coal prices still adopted a dual-track system. The prices of "key coal" purchased by the state and "market coal" sold by coal mines were different.

At that time, the average domestic coal production cost was about 29 yuan per ton. This cost included employee wages and equipment losses. The average price purchased by the state was 26.05 yuan per ton, which means that the price purchased by the state was lower than the cost of coal production.

of.

When a coal mine sells "key coal", it costs more than three yuan per ton, but it is impossible not to sell it. After all, all coal mines were state-owned at that time.

"Key coal" was mainly supplied to power plants. Because the power industry was generally experiencing losses at that time, the state subsidized power plants through low-price coal.

Coal mines lose money by selling "key coal", so they naturally have to make up for it from "market coal". Therefore, the price of "market coal" can generally reach 34 yuan, which is equivalent to earning more than 4 yuan from selling a ton of coal.

Calculated in this way, Yankuang only earns more than 20 million yuan a year, which is not much considering the scale of Yankuang.

But at that time, the evaluation of enterprises was not based on how much profit you could bring, but how much contribution you could make to the country.

For example, many military-industrial enterprises are losing money every year, but they are still key national enterprises; and many private enterprises, which are large taxpayers, are still regarded as market failures.

Coal mining has always been a very profitable business. In the era of state-owned coal mine monopoly, coal was in short supply. Being able to get coal from coal mines was a skill in itself, and coal mining was even more profitable.

For example, Qinghe Transportation Company transports coal from Yankuang to Dongdao Port Authority and earns a price difference of 6 yuan per ton. For 5,000 tons of coal per month, that is a price difference of 30,000 yuan. Plus the freight also goes to the freight office.

fanny pack.

…

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

At the beginning of the month again, the transportation company will hold a meeting of middle-level and above leading cadres to conduct a routine summary of the work of the previous quarter. At that time, the heads of each department will summarize the work of their departments in the previous quarter.

Writing a summary is a technical activity, and reporting good news or not is the most basic operation. If the data can increase, it is naturally the best. If the data does not advance but retreats, we must emphasize more objective factors and tell the leaders that it is not because we do not

You work hard, but various circumstances hold you back.

There is not much newness in this kind of work report. Anyone who can be mistaken for a company leader is not a fool. How can it be so easily deceived? Everyone knows which department is doing well and which department is not doing well.

In the entire transportation company, the department with the largest number of employees is the passenger transportation department. In addition to drivers and conductors, there are hundreds of service staff at the bus station.

Of course, the freight department made the most money. After all, in those days, freight was a hugely profitable industry.

When it was the turn of Director of Freight Transport Zhao Guodong to report and summarize, everyone pricked up their ears.

The freight department's transportation profits in the last quarter were not impressive. Although they increased slightly year-on-year, they decreased month-on-month.

This is mainly because the last quarter coincided with the flood season, and the freight department's vehicles were deployed to participate in flood fighting and rescue tasks, which delayed the normal transportation business and led to a decrease in freight profits.

There is nothing we can do about this. After all, flood fighting and rescue operations are political tasks, and transportation companies must participate. Therefore, when the flood season comes every year, the profits of the freight office will always be reduced to a certain extent. As for the reduction, it depends on whether it rains heavily or not.

Smaller.

After Zhao Guodong reported the data item by item, he finally talked about the matter of shipping as a consignment:

"Last quarter, our department explored a new mode of transportation through shipping and sales, and gained an additional profit of 90,000 yuan."

"Ninety thousand?" Upon hearing this number, everyone in the conference room was shocked.

Ninety thousand yuan is not a lot of money for the entire transportation company. Many tertiary industries under the transportation company do not earn this much. The freight office can earn more than two million yuan a month from transportation.

However, most of the money earned by the freight office has to be turned over to the state, and the company does not have that much money at its own disposal.

The words "extra profit" just mean that this money is at the company's own disposal and is not within the scope of tasks set by the state.

Several thoughtful people have already taken out pens and paper and started calculating.

"According to the performance bonus distribution plan, 80% of the extra profit of 90,000 yuan will be handed over to the company. The freight department will still have 18,000 yuan left as a performance bonus. The entire freight department has 300 drivers, dispatchers and logistics.

On average, each person can get 60 yuan! This is only one quarter, four quarters a year, isn’t there 240 yuan!”

After calculating this account, many people showed strange expressions.

In a small city like Qinghe, the income is lower than that in a big city. Two hundred and forty yuan is equivalent to half a year's salary of an ordinary employee. What's more, the basic bonus of the freight department is already higher than that of other departments.

"If you calculate it this way, the salary in the freight department should be over one hundred, right?"

"Absolutely. Drivers at the freight department can get more than 80 yuan in salary plus bonus. Now they get 20 yuan more a month, which must be more than 100 yuan!"

The salary in 1985 was over 100, which is definitely a very proud achievement.

Zhao Guodong was very proud of everyone's surprised performance. He coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and then reported: "Our freight department has only conducted preliminary exploration on the method of shipping and selling on a consignment basis, and has only carried out one project so far, which is

Buy coal from Yankuang and transport it to Dongdao Port Authority."

"Director Zhao, how many tons of coal can the freight department transport from Yankuang every month?" Zhu Shicong asked.

"Currently it is 5,000 tons. In the future, we plan to increase the transportation capacity and strive to transport 10,000 tons of coal every month!" Zhao Guodong replied confidently.

Everyone quickly calculated that if you transport 5,000 tons a month, you can earn 30,000 yuan. If you transport 10,000 tons, it will be 60,000 yuan, of which 12,000 yuan is the performance bonus of the freight department. On average, each person earns 40 yuan more.

Yuan, this extra income is equivalent to more than half a month's salary of an ordinary employee.

And this is just coal transportation. In addition to coal, there are many things that can be "shipped and sold", such as steel bars, diesel, and chemical products. There is definitely no shortage of buyers for this type of industrial products, as long as the things are shipped

If you resell a place and make a 10% profit, it is very rare.

Zhao Guodong's report made Yu Zhengcheng feel like he was riding a tiger.

Before this, Yu Zhengcheng was opposed to using shipping as a consignment.

Nowadays, using freight as a consignment can bring huge profits, and Yu Zhengcheng has no reason to continue to oppose it.

The Freight Department has already begun to distribute the money on a large scale. Once the money is given out, it is impossible to take it back. The three hundred people in the Freight Department have already tasted the sweetness of using freight as a consignment. How can they give up this piece of fat? Next

The scale of consignment sales can only grow larger and larger, and cannot be reduced.

…

The next day, the news spread, and almost the entire transportation company was talking about using freight as a consignment.

"Have you heard that the Freight Department has set up a freight forwarding agency, which is very profitable. Just last month, the people in the Freight Department received an extra bonus of twenty yuan!"

"I've also heard about it. It's said that they buy coal from Yankuang and then transport it to Dongdao Port Authority to sell it. They earn not only the freight but also the price difference of the coal."

"It's strange that in the past two months, the trucks from the freight department have been running to Yankuang. I thought I had met a big cargo owner, but I didn't expect that our freight department had done it ourselves."

"I heard that in the future, the freight department will not only transport coal, but also oil and steel!"

"Wouldn't it be possible to make more money? How did he come up with such a good idea? This guy is really a genius."

"Who else can it be? Li Weidong!"
