There is a jingle in the industry, for reference only:
Carter is very powerful, but he is afraid of rising oil prices!
Be relaxed and open the small pine, but you are afraid that you will not be able to dig through the hard soil!
Hitachi's fuel efficiency is a myth, and it's scary to talk about oil leakage!
It's fast, even if it's Kobelco, it'll be ruined if the circuit breaks down...
…
Uncle Wang Yue still has things to deal with. After chatting for a while, he is about to go out.
Tang Xun spread his hands: "I also said that I would buy you a better second-hand excavator. Now I can only go to the second-hand market or buy a new machine."
"Come with me to see the new machine." Ye Mo said.
"Let's go."
Not far away is the Engineering Machinery Market, a large market that sells all kinds of excavators and bulldozers. You can also order them and even customize them.
This large area mainly sells large trucks, excavators, bulldozers, tractors, etc. Both new and used machines are available.
"How big of an excavator are you going to buy?" Tang Xun asked as the car drove into the market.
"Let's take a look first." Ye Mo planned to buy one or two excavators, a tractor and an external trailer.
In terms of weight, those below 5 tons are mini excavators, 5-13 tons are small, 13-30 tons are medium-sized, 30-50 tons are large. Those over 50 tons are extra-large.
The market is dominated by mini excavators, followed by small...
Among the mini excavators are specially labeled orchard excavators. The smallest excavator weighs less than 1 ton, and the cheapest costs more than 6,000 yuan.
Such an excavator looks very crude...
Went around for a while.
Ye Mo got a lot of information on mini excavators, all of which are big brands, including XCMG, Sany, Kobelco, Kubota, and Yanmar. He also got information on several small excavators with more than 5 tons...
Also operated mini excavators, and small excavators.
To be honest, what big boy doesn't like excavators.
Perhaps due to the influence of his uncle Wang Yue, Ye Mo felt that Kubota's excavator was the most comfortable.
The engine is quiet and quick to operate.
Comparing fuel consumption, the fuel consumption of Kubota excavators is also a little less.
Maybe it's psychological.
"The second-hand Kubota U30 just now was priced at 190,000. Is it too expensive?" After returning to the car and blowing on the air conditioner, Ye Mo didn't leave in a hurry. He lit a cigarette for Tang Xun and asked.
"The machine with less than 2,000 hours old looks like 80% to 90% new... The price of 190,000 is about the same. A new machine costs about 300,000. Uncle Wang Yue had one before and used it for 7,800 to 8,000 hours...
"Tang Xun said: "I only have a superficial understanding of excavators, but I know that Kubota's excavators maintain their value."
The excavator market I just visited sells many brands, including Kubota excavators.
As for second-hand mobile phones, Ye Mo also saw two. A micro U30 and a KX185 weighing more than 8 tons. They seemed to be quite old.
Buying an excavator is more difficult than buying a car because I don't know how to do it.
Go back to the villa, find He Yu, Zhang Wei and the others, and tie Jinhua.
After dinner, Ye Mo went home and went to the mountains to take a look.
The road has reached halfway up the mountain.
The newly opened road is shorter than the original dirt road, making the gradient gentler. It takes a circle to reach the top of the mountain.
…
the next day.
Tang Xun and the others came to Dongmen Town and looked at the villa next to the Tropical Valley.
The villa is quite beautiful, but there are a lot of fallen leaves on the road. No one has lived in the villa for a long time, so it looks a bit desolate.
Ye Mo felt that the transfer price of more than 4 million was a bit high. He could find a new piece of land and build a villa. However, the villa has buildings and the location is not bad...
If we really want to build a new villa, more than four million will definitely not be enough.
"Buy the villa, renovate it...the total investment is at least five million or more." After a rough look, Ye Mo pulled Tang Xun and whispered: "How many of you are partners?"
Many people came today.
Tang Xun, Liang Xin, Zhang Wei, He Yu, and He Yu’s cousin He Li.
"If you don't invest, then you are just five shareholders." Tang Xun said.
"How can you make money with five shareholders?" Ye Mo couldn't help complaining.
They invest here to prepare loans.
"To open a villa, choose a place closer to the city to have business. Dongmen Town is too far from the city." Ye Mo advised.
He feels that it is not cost-effective to invest five million in a tourist resort. And it is not a popular tourist spot...
If you can spend five million to build a mountain villa on the outskirts of the city, that's pretty much it.
"Zhang Wei said there are many tourists here." Tang Xun also whispered.
"I'm not optimistic about it anyway. You can make up your own mind about the specifics. I have something to do and I have to go back first." Ye Mo said in a low voice. We were all very good buddies in the past, but now, Ye Mo is just like Tang Xun.
The relationship is the best. Others have not been in contact for many years.
"OK."
Ye Mo decided to buy an excavator and also a tractor. Then the orchard would not need too many cement roads...
Ye Mo went back to re-plan the path to the orchard.
The newly planned road will have 3.65 kilometers of cement roads, plus cement floors for several warehouses...the total area is 5,600 square meters + 4,500 square meters.
5,600 square meters is the main road from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, with a thickness of 15 centimeters and a length of 1.6 kilometers...
4500 square meters is the orchard road on the top of the mountain, plus the cement floor of the warehouse, with a thickness of 12 cm.
The 10cm cement road is too thin.
In this way, the construction cost of the entire cement road can be completed at about 600,000 yuan.
The investment in the previous plan was too high. It would cost one million to build the road. At the same time, the cement road on the top of the mountain, converted into acres, would be more than 20 acres of cement road.
The total area on the top of the mountain is only about 220 acres.
It took 11 days to open the roadbed.
Ye Mo hesitated for a long time and finally made up his mind to buy two excavators.
One micro digger and one small digger.
I have been reading online for a long time about micro-digs. Kubota has the highest rating, especially the original imported micro-digs.
But the price is also very impressive.
Like the Kubota U15, the weight of the whole machine is 1.75 tons, and the asking price is about 230,000 (including shipping).
Domestic products are 10W cheaper.
Ye Mo searched a lot of information on the Internet and finally bought two Kubota units.
A U15.
A KX155.
Two machines, U15 imported fully assembled, priced at RMB 237,000, with bucket and bulldozing board.
KX155, made in China, weighs 5.2 tons... more than 300,000 yuan. It comes with two digging buckets, one big and one small, bulldozing board, tree pulling...
Two buckets, small bucket 0.2 cubic meters, large bucket 0.33 cubic meters.
The small bucket is used to dig holes, and the large bucket is used to clear roads and level the land.
After ordering an excavator, Ye Mo took Ye Ran to learn how to drive the excavator and get the operator's certificate.
Mini excavators and small excavators are still very popular in their local area. Especially for orchard land reclamation and road construction.
The hilly terrain and the 20-ton excavator make it inconvenient to go to many places.
Only mini or small excavators can be used.
Ye Mo bought two excavators at one time. The mini excavator is used in his own orchard. The small excavator can be driven out to make money. The most important thing is to use it to clear up wasteland in his own orchard.
It costs 2,000 yuan a day to hire Master Wang's excavator to complete the leveling of nearly two hundred acres of land... That's a pretty huge project.
Only the roadbed was flat, with a total area of just over 10,000 square meters. It took 11 days and cost more than 20,000 yuan.
Ye Mo's land reclamation, plus Ye Ran's 30 acres of sloping land, would cost more than ten or two hundred thousand people to come.
