The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Just when everyone thought that Cao Shujie would choose one of the two bids as the final construction party, Cao Shujie clapped his hands and chose to let the two construction parties each take half of the responsibility and start the work at the same time, and must complete the installation of the integrated drip irrigation equipment of the agricultural planting cooperative in the shortest time.

Even Chen Lei and Qu Huafu did not expect such a result.

For them, although they were still unwilling to accept that they quoted a project of more than 29 million yuan, they only got more than 14 million yuan in the end, but compared with other bidders who got nothing, they were lucky, at least they got the order.

After deciding on the final construction party, the next step was to announce it to let all the villagers in the three villages know, and then carry out the construction simultaneously, and charge all villagers who agreed to the construction with a quotation of 5,600 yuan per mu of land according to the proportion of shares, and the remaining part will be made up by the Caojiazhuang Village Committee.

The fees collected by the three villages were temporarily kept by the Caojiazhuang Village Committee. After paying 10% of the project deposit to Chen Lei and Qu Huafu, the drip irrigation integrated project officially started construction.

At the same time, the Caojiazhuang Village Committee also contacted Han Dingping to dig a well.

Because digging a well in an orchard is completely different from digging a well on the mountain, the cost is much lower than the cost Cao Shujie spent on digging a well on the mountain.

Moreover, whether it is Caojiazhuang, Taodong Village or Zhujiazhuang, they are all close to the Yellow River, and the groundwater resources are quite rich, so digging a well is not difficult.

However, in order to ensure smoother subsequent water use, the well was still dug very deep.

During the construction of the entire project, the tourism industry in Caojiazhuang had already started. Some foreign tourists were curious about these construction projects, and some people came closer to see what it was?

However, after being informed by Chen Lei and Qu Huafu, the two construction parties, the Caojiazhuang Village Committee, the public security brigade arranged people to patrol nearby and warn those tourists who came to play not to get close to the construction party to avoid some accidental injuries.

Regarding this point, after those tourists learned the specific situation, no one blindly moved forward, and everyone stayed away from the construction area.

When the drip irrigation integrated installation project just started, Cao Shujie also came to see it and found no problems.

However, Cao Shujie still specifically told Cao Shuchao to arrange for the public security brigade to do a good job of inspection.

Cao Shuchao also promised Cao Shujie to complete the task.

…

While the agricultural planting cooperative was busy installing the drip irrigation integrated equipment, the relevant policies of Dongshan Province to protect economic development were also issued.

One of them is aimed at the agricultural economic development, including but not limited to the agricultural and sideline products processing industry.

The general idea is to ensure the healthy and orderly development of such enterprises. From a practical point of view, the interests of relevant enterprises and farmers are effectively protected throughout the province, and tax incentives and relevant subsidy applications are implemented for such enterprises. At the same time, it is advocated that all regions strengthen their attention to such enterprises.

More detailed relevant subsidies and preferential policies are also listed very clearly, with the aim of promoting the bold development of relevant enterprises without any worries.

Xuemeng Food Factory is a member of the deep processing industry of agricultural and sideline products, and also a leader among them. After seeing the relevant policies issued by Dongshan Province, they immediately began to study and see what benefits they have for themselves.

However, after reading these details, they found that Xuemeng Food Factory has been enjoying most of the policies. For example, for the tax preferential policies, Xuemeng Food Factory's tax preferential treatment is 50%, which means that it can be exempted by half.

Cao Shujie doesn't believe that they will be exempted from all taxes.

For example, Xuemeng Food Factory paid more than 800 million yuan in taxes last year, but according to relevant policies, the excess tax can be refunded.

In addition, Xuemeng Food Factory also enjoys a credit line of 1 billion yuan, as well as a 5% subsidy for the purchase of fruit trees from farmers in the province, with a maximum subsidy of no more than 100 million yuan.

This part is more direct than the policy issued by Dongshan Province this time, and the effect is very significant.

The relevant subsidy policy formulated by the top leaders this time is very effective for those companies with high debt ratios, but Xuemeng Food Factory has zero debt, and even with the increase in profit ratio in recent years, Xuemeng Food Factory itself has sufficient cash flow.

Xuemeng Food Factory does not need a loan at all. The policy given to them by the Dongshan Provincial Government when evaluating the provincial agricultural benchmark enterprises last time, including the interest-free credit line of 1 billion yuan, has never been used at all, but the other four companies that were evaluated at the same time have already used up this credit line, but it is still not enough for those companies.

There is no way, especially in the current situation, the higher the debt of the company, the more uncomfortable it is.

And the policy of half tax refund is icing on the cake for Xuemeng Food Factory, making their cash flow more abundant.

In theory, Xuemeng Food Factory has no problem in the rear, but with the shrinking market, Xuemeng Food Factory's sales, sales volume, overall profits and other aspects are inevitably affected.

Even the export trade that Xuemeng Food Factory just started last year has been greatly affected, and there is no hope in the short term.

As a result, Cao Shujie also considered turning the fruit wine to domestic sales.

However, whether from market research or the current situation, the market demand for such products is indeed not high.

This is also the first project that Cao Shujie has invested in that has suffered setbacks before it was put into operation.

But Cao Shujie was not discouraged. He originally thought that he could count on the rescue policy issued by the higher authorities to revitalize the enterprise. However, when he saw the specific content of the relevant policy, Cao Shujie gave up this and began to consider other methods.

After entering April, Tong Jiayi's parents, Tong Zhanxin and Zheng Suying, took Tong Jiayi and Cao Huifang's birth dates to a professional master to look at the dates and set the date for engagement and marriage.

Cao Shujie did not support this kind of thing, but he did not oppose it either. He felt that existence was reasonable.

According to the master, April 20th of the Gregorian calendar, the fifth day of the third lunar month, the year of Wuxu, the month of Bingchen, the day of Renwu, and the day of Guyu in the twenty-four solar terms are a good day.

It is suitable for engagement, marriage, and population growth.

August 30th of the Gregorian calendar, the 20th day of the seventh lunar month, the year of Wuxu, the month of Gengshen, and the day of Jiawu.

Everything is suitable, no taboos!

In layman's terms, it is a good day for marriage.

After hearing what his mother said, Cao Shujie was silent on the spot.

Because he didn't understand, it sounded very profound.

But when he thought about his sister's engagement on April 20 and marriage on August 30, the time seemed very tight, Cao Shujie thought, Tong Jiayi's character is not a problem, so as Cao Huifang's only brother, what kind of dowry should he give to his sister.

But he couldn't think of it after thinking about it.

The house and car have been bought for her with supplementary money or directly given to her, and his wife Cheng Xiaolin also bought jewelry for his sister.

What else is left?

His sister wants a piece of land in Caojiazhuang, Cao Shujie has also reported it, and it is under review.

He was thinking whether to build a house for his sister in Caojiazhuang after the land is approved?

It seems to be a very good idea. Cao Shujie even called his sister to ask what kind of decoration style she wants.

Cao Huifang was really happy after receiving this call from her brother. She had always wanted to get a house of her own in Caojiazhuang. This was a good opportunity.

And Cao Huifang didn't want to leave this place. She felt that it was good to leave her roots in Caojiazhuang.

...

The weather gradually warmed up, especially after entering spring, Cao Zhenghu began to go out again.

But compared with last year, Cao Zhenghu now needs to use a wheelchair to go out. For this reason, Cao Shujie got his grandfather an electric wheelchair to facilitate his travel.

After the Caojiazhuang Children's Theme Park and Mengmeng Orchard opened again, Cao Jianguo also started to set up a stall like last year, busy selling bread, eight-treasure porridge and pure milk.

Wang Yuelan took care of her father-in-law and grandson at home.

But Wang Yuelan heard that his son and daughter-in-law were discussing sending Cao Yirui to kindergarten.

Wang Yuelan thought that she would take care of her grandson, so it would be okay to send her grandson Cao Yirui two years later.

But Cao Shujie didn't think so. He saw his son getting more and more naughty and even a little lawless, and thought he should find a place to set rules for him.

Kindergarten just plays such a role.

Besides, his son is three years old this year, and it's not appropriate to let him play at home all the time.

"Then wait until the second half of the year to send him." Wang Yuelan told his son and daughter-in-law.

Cao Shujie thought about it and compromised.

On this day, Cao Shujie came back from the town. As soon as he got home, his wife Cheng Xiaolin asked him: "Shujie, how is your nutrient solution selling?"

"It's okay, why do you think of asking this." Cao Shujie put down his bag and clothes and asked his wife.

Cheng Xiaolin told him: "I have been live streaming in the park recently, and I have been demonstrating the use of nutrient solution to everyone. Many netizens said that this thing is very effective in growing flowers and ornamental trees."

Hearing his wife say this, Cao Shujie was a little confused for a moment.

Cao Shujie has always used nutrient solution as a nutritional supplement for fruit trees, and has never thought about other aspects. But today his wife reminded him that ornamental flowers and ornamental trees are also plants, and some flowers and ornamental trees have a high economic value. Does this mean that there is another new market?

"Does anyone in your live broadcast room want to buy?" Cao Shujie asked his wife.

Cheng Xiaolin nodded and said to him: "Yes, there are still many people who want to buy some to try."

"You don't know, there are many young people who grow flowers and ornamental trees at home, and they are willing to buy these supplementary medicines." Cheng Xiaolin said.

She also gave her husband an idea: "Shujie, have you ever thought that many companies are really willing to invest in greening? Some companies spend hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars every year to do greening in the factory. If the first generation of nutrient solution can enter this market, the prospects will be greater than now."

The key is different from individuals. These companies are willing to spend money.

At this time, after listening to his wife's words, Cao Shujie instantly felt enlightened.

He wondered why he hadn't thought of this before, and why so many people in the company hadn't thought of this market?

The more Cao Shujie thought about it, the more he felt that what his wife said made sense. He immediately called Guan Boyong and asked him to pay attention to this market and arrange people to research it.

After hanging up the phone, Cao Shujie asked his wife: "Then what do you think will be better if the preserved fruit is not selling well now?"

"The live broadcast room, anyway, there are a lot of people in my live broadcast room, otherwise I will try again." Cheng Xiaolin said to her husband.

Xuemeng Food Factory is their family's enterprise. Cheng Xiaolin is also very concerned about the development of Xuemeng Food Factory. If Xuemeng Food Factory cannot develop, Cheng Xiaolin is also anxious. Recently, she has been thinking about what she can do to help Xuemeng Food Factory from her perspective?

For Cheng Xiaolin, she is not good at other fields except making videos and live broadcasts. She doesn't like to cross over to those unfamiliar industries.

Cao Shujie thought of the hot scenes of live broadcasts and said to his wife after thinking again and again: "Why don't we try it together?"

Cao Shujie still felt that it was a bit unkind for his wife to bear such a thing alone.

As a man, he should also stand up at the critical moment.

"Try it, the worst is to maintain the current situation, don't you think?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her husband.

Cao Shujie nodded subconsciously, thinking that his wife was right.

Then he heard his wife again: "But if it really works, then maybe it can increase the sales of the factory."

Cao Shujie nodded, thinking that his wife was right.

They have actually opened live streaming on Taobao, but Cao Shujie feels that the overall effect has not reached the kind of hot scenes he saw on other platforms in his previous life.

Sales of several hundred million a day...

In the past, Cao Shujie would have thought how could this be possible.

Now Cao Shujie is wondering how they did it in the first place?

Some people may say that it was fake orders, and Cao Shujie does not deny this.

When Taobao was doing Double 11 before, Xuemeng Food Factory participated in the Double 11 shopping event and also invited external aid (fake orders), but Cao Shujie did not believe that the sales of several hundred million were all achieved by fake orders.

Moreover, Douyin has been around for almost two years, and the effect of its live streaming has not been fully demonstrated. Douyin Mall does not exist now, and Douyin is not associated with Taobao Mall or other mini-programs.

Now offline sales have obviously declined, and may even continue to decline in the future. At this time, pure online store sales have also shown a lack of follow-up.

Cao Shujie is wondering whether online live streaming can make up for the losses caused by the company's lack of sales?

He is not sure, but he has to give it a try.

Fortunately, his wife is very popular in this area. As for the specific situation, Cao Shujie can't say for sure.

But just like his wife said, the worst is just the current state, what is there to be afraid of?

Just do it!
