Chapter 609 Sixty Things and Fine Factory Flowers (34)
Hmm...the memory of this makes all the greedy people come out.
Xu Yin remembered that there should be some stored in the system warehouse, so she made herself a meal of braised pork with walnuts and Tibetan fragrant pork when she got back.
At the moment, business matters are more important. Xu Yin thought carefully and then said: "Director, since fruit saplings will be difficult to buy next spring, why not plant walnut trees instead. Director Hu, do you think you can make it cheaper for us?"
"Ok, Ok."
Farm Director Hu was worried that he could not sell these walnut seedlings to occupy the space. It was rare that anyone wanted them, so he immediately expressed his position:
"If they are all shipped away, I will give you a preferential price!"
After saying that, he went to the office to get the vaccine shopping list.
"Why--"
Director Qi wanted to stop him but he didn't.
He was so anxious that he turned to Xu Yin and said: "Xiao Xu, what do you want walnut seedlings for? It might take ten years for those things to bear fruit, and no one will want them after they grow, so what's the use? No matter how cheap they are, it's useless! You're like this
Aren’t you just fooling around?”
Xu Yin comforted him: "It's useful! I guarantee it's useful! If you don't worry, I'll give you a military order. If the walnut trees don't bear fruit within two years after they are transplanted, I will bear the cost of these saplings!"
"..."
Director Qi said helplessly: "Xiao Xu, this is not a small amount. The purpose of our side business is to provide more benefits to the employees in the farm, but there is no need to invest your own wealth in it, so why are you doing this!"
Xu Yin said: "Director, we have to take a long-term view. In the short term, fruits such as apples and oranges are indeed popular, but you think, all the fruit tree saplings cultivated in the nursery have been booked, and next year's ones are all in
There is a queue, what does this mean? It means that there are many units growing apples, oranges, and pears. Everyone has seen the popularity of these fruits and wants to start a side job to make extra money. So what will happen in two or three years?"
"What phenomenon?"
Field Director Qi was stunned for a moment, then thought about it carefully and came to his senses:
"You mean, in two or three years, no one will want these fruits? They won't be able to sell them?"
"It can definitely be sold, but the price won't be high because the market is saturated."
Of course, this refers to the local market. There may still be many residents in other cities who cannot afford fruit.
But in an era when transportation was underdeveloped, it was not easy to sell fruits to other places.
Firstly, it is difficult to store, and secondly, the road conditions are very poor.
The short distance she took from the freight dispatching station to the breeding farm without the [Xiaoyao Seat Cushion] made her doubt her life, let alone the fruit. How could it remain intact after a long bumpy ride?
Once the local market is saturated, will fruit prices remain high? They will definitely come down.
"Walnuts are different. You see, everyone dislikes them because they bear fruit late and no one grows them. Will there be no competition at that time? If there is no competition for the same product, who will compete in the market?"
Director Qi was so shocked by Xu Yin's remarks.
But when I calm down and think about it, I still feel something is wrong:
"But this thing doesn't taste very good. Even if someone buys it, they only weigh it a little during festivals and sprinkle it as a condiment when pounding rice candies. Who would buy it and eat it directly?"
"If you are worried that you won't be able to sell it directly, we can cooperate with non-staple food factories to launch several nutritious foods with walnuts. Walnuts are nutritious, grind them into powder, and make them into packages like malted milk. You can give them to your elders during the holidays, right?
Very suitable?"
Xu Yin even thought of the advertising slogan for walnut powder——
Keboren is white and big, and has good dietary and health-care effects!
Choose it as a souvenir during New Years and holidays, to honor your elders!
"In addition to walnut powder, walnut cakes, walnut cakes, and walnut candies can also be made into walnut cakes, walnut cakes, and walnut candies... As long as they are stored properly, walnuts can be stored for a long time and can be produced all year round. Is their ability to last longer than seasonal apples, oranges, and pears?"
Director Qi's eyes lit up when he heard Xu Yin talking about walnut powder, walnut cake, and walnut candy.
Yes!
He suddenly touched his palm.
If you sell walnuts directly, you won’t get much money, but they can be made into nutritional supplements for pastries and snacks!
"Sure! I'll listen to you! Plant walnuts!"
As a leader, who hasn’t got the idea of burning with enthusiasm and wanting to achieve something great?
If he can successfully develop a relatively profitable side business for the breeding farm before retiring, he will be able to boast in front of his juniors for the rest of his life.
Director Hu came back with a purchase order stamped with a red seal. Seeing Director Qi's face full of smiles, he couldn't help but wonder: Wasn't he still crying just now? Why did he start to smile just after taking the purchase order?
But he was able to sell the walnut saplings that no one wanted and occupied the space. He wished that the farm manager would be happy and save the money and regrets.
Both managers looked at peace on their faces and felt happy inside. They signed the order and paid the money.
Walnut trees are already cheaper than popular fruit trees such as apples and oranges. In addition, Director Hu gave them a preferential price. For the same purchase, they purchased 100 more trees than originally planned, for a total of 300 trees.
A grafted three-year-old walnut sapling.
Farm manager Hu was worried about something, and he was in a good mood. With a wave of his hand, Asha said vigorously: Can't the farm transport a truck? It's okay! I'll send a truck to deliver the goods to your door!
In this way, three hundred walnut trees were brought back to the farm on the same day.
When all the workers saw the three hundred walnut trees, they were excited.
Not happy, but unable to understand.
They had the same idea as Director Qi at the beginning, thinking that walnuts are good to grow. If they don’t bear fruit for a few years, no one will harvest them. In the end, not only will their hard work be in vain, but they will also waste money on it!
"Director, why did you bring back a cart of walnut saplings? What's the point of growing these things?"
"Director, are there no apple seedlings left? I heard that many units are grabbing fruit seedlings, but even if they are gone, let's not bring back a cart of useless walnut seedlings. Save them for next year to buy other fruit seedlings.
Isn’t it possible?”
Everyone wished they could turn back time and ask the farm director to send a cart of walnut saplings back to the nursery farm.
Director Qi clasped his hands behind his back and laughed: "You guys! None of you have the foresight of Xiao Xu! Let's go! It's better to wait until the day comes. I'll hold a meeting for you now. Let's talk about anything at the meeting!"
After the workers' meeting, everyone suddenly realized.
It turns out that this is a grafted walnut sapling that will bear fruit in less than two years;
It turns out that walnuts can be used to make so many foods? Walnut powder is given to elders, walnut cake is used to comfort children, amber walnuts have good meanings, and weddings and weddings are indispensable!
Wow! Thinking about it this way, spending the same money to buy an extra hundred walnut trees would be a huge profit!
"Comrades, this is a side job that our company has won with great difficulty. Whether we make or lose money in the future is closely related to the interests of each of our comrades. You are not allowed to talk about it outside." The director of the whole company warned them before the meeting ended.
All the employees in the audience said in unison: "I won't even say I'll kill you!"
What a joke!
This is an important matter related to their year-end benefits. How can they tell people in other factories?
Having said that those units are also planting walnut trees, won’t the local walnut production be saturated in the future? Can the farms still make money?
