Forest Farm’s Longling lychees are becoming more and more famous.
At the end of April, when the precocious Concubine Xiao was at its most expensive, the wholesale price reached 40 yuan per catty.
It costs 100 yuan for adults to enter the orchard for picking, and it is free for children. You can eat as much as you want in the orchard. The lychees you want to take away cost 50 yuan per catty.
People who enter the orchard to pick are all looking at the big lychees being picked.
Longling lychees are selling very well now. Chen Hao originally didn't want to open the picking. But Xu Xin said that Coral Coast Hotel will provide an additional tourism project...
Visitors to the Coral Coast Hotel have free admission and can eat whatever they want. If you want to take it away, it costs 50 yuan per pound.
There are many tourists going to the farm to pick lychees.
At the end of April, more than 1,500 tourists were received in a single day. Most people paid the entrance fee, came in to eat, and then took away some tokens when they left. This is not profitable for the farm...
It cannot be said that it is not profitable.
After all, there are so many people.
And at noon, many people will go to the canteen to eat. It is also very profitable.
The current salary of the forest farm is not high, and the workers are working hard, hoping that the farm can make more money, and then they can get similar salary as the employees of the Coral Coast Hotel.
The treatment at Coral Coast Hotel is envied by many people.
The Coral Coast Hotel is recruiting employees these days, just ordinary employees, and there are actually many master's degree students applying.
In the Coral Coast Hotel, the lowest-paid sweeper has an annual salary of more than 150,000. This is real money...
Chen Yuan also told the farm workers that as long as the farm can make money, they will improve their welfare benefits in the future. The ultimate goal is to exceed the benefits of Coral Coast...
Chen Yuan is willing to pay high wages to his employees.
The forest farm can produce very good fruits, mainly because Chen Yuan used the Spirit Gathering Pearl. But the workers on the farm are also very important.
If you want fruit trees to have high yields, you don't just need to apply more fertilizer.
Chen Yuan uses spiritual energy to nourish the fruit trees, which is equivalent to fertilizing the fruit trees. But if the fruit trees want to be high-yielding, they also need to prune the fruit trees, take care of the weeds in the orchard, etc.
Chen Yuan doesn't want to be the kind of person who shows off his wealth while saying that when giving high wages to workers, he must consider whether other companies in the same industry can afford it...disgusting.
Get rich first and then get rich.
Chen Yuan is not the first person to become rich, nor does he say that he brings others to become rich, but at the very least, after he can live a life that countless people envy, he also makes the lives of his employees better.
Of course, this is Chen Yuan, a cheating man.
In May, lychees mature in large quantities.
Chen Hao priced the lychees too high and couldn't sell them all. After picking, some of the lychees were sent to ultra-low temperature warehouses. Some of them continued to be sold...
Lychee picking lasts until mid-July.
This year, more than 13,000 acres of lychees were produced, with a total output of 4,620 tons.
Entering May, the price of lychees dropped sharply. The price of lychees from Forest Farm was stable at 30 yuan per catty shipped, and has continued.
It is well-known and its sales volume is still very good. Furthermore, it has an ultra-low temperature warehouse, and unsold lychees are directly stored in the warehouse and sold slowly in the future.
When all the lychees on the farm were picked, a total of almost 2,000 tons of lychees were sold, earning 143 million yuan. This also includes income from lychee picking.
During the May Day period, the largest number of tourists who came to the farm to pick lychees on a single day was 3,871.
Forest Farm still has 650 people.
Chen Yuan, Zhou Sheng, Chen Hao, and the company's accountants got together to study the farm's expenses.
Labor costs are currently about 5.7 million yuan a month. In a year, including bonuses, it is about 80 million yuan.
Other production expenditures and farm construction are almost completed, and the subsequent investment will not be particularly high.
There are also mangoes, rambutans, longans and other other fruits on the farm, covering thousands of acres. However, the yield of these fruits this year is not particularly high, mainly because the fruit trees have not yet entered the peak production period.
The farm has now broken even and is making a profit. However, this profit is not proportional to the investment in the farm.
There will be no salary increase for the time being, but in July, each person will receive a bonus of 10,000 yuan. This bonus is for a single month and may not be available next month.
Raising wages involves too many things.
Distributing bonuses is very simple, just give the money directly. 650 people, that is, 6.5 million.
The farm will continue to make income in the next few months, and more bonuses will be paid every month in the future. When the reserve fund of the forest farm reaches 500 million, we will talk about increasing wages for the workers.
The forest farm is large in size, with so many people, and a lot of other expenses... In one year, based on the previous normal salary, it will cost more than 100 million a year. Without a certain amount of capital reserves, any time
Just raise the workers' wages casually, just in case something goes wrong.
Just giving more bonuses to workers actually increases their wages.
"This farm doesn't make much money," Zhou Sheng said after leaving the conference room.
"This is only the third year." Chen Yuandao said: "In a few years, the fruit trees will enter the fruit-bearing period, and the fruit yield can increase several times."
"Higher yield means cheaper fruit prices." Zhou Sheng shrugged.
Chen Yuan smiled: "In the second half of the year, the cattle and sheep in the pasture will be put out one after another."
"There are 60,000 to 70,000 Eastern goats that can be sold. If the quantity is large, the price will definitely fall." Zhou Sheng said.
"Not necessarily." Chen Yuan said: "Sixty thousand to seventy thousand sheep is not much. Chen Long's hotpot restaurant and barbecue restaurant need about 10 sheep a day. There are so many five-star hotels in Cheung Chau, as well as in Lingshui
Bay, Haitang Bay, Sanya...the things we have here are not only supplied to Wanxian County. Let’s see, the price of Dongshan goats from our farm will become more and more expensive in the future.”
The former Dongyang Shao was provided to Chen Long for a long time, and then it became their hotel.
Sold to Chen Long for 110 yuan per kilogram, live sheep.
The Coral Coast Hotel and the Forest Farm are almost the same company, and neither of them takes the money. A few or a dozen of them every day...
The reputation of Forest Farm has already been established in the local area. Their farm also cooperates with many hotels, mainly supplying fruits to hotels. It will not be difficult to sell East goats in the future.
Not to mention the sky-high price of several hundred yuan per kilogram. As long as the current price can be maintained, the farm can earn hundreds of millions in new income every year.
Zhou Sheng said ‘hmm’ and said, “I think we are a bit too high-profile?”
"Just be high-profile." Chen Yuan said with a smile: "In this situation, even if you want to be low-key, it's difficult."
"Some of the coconut trees in Long Valley have bloomed." Zhou Sheng said: "And the lychee trees there are now several meters high... What should I say, if there is a large amount of output in Long Valley next year, will it be sold?
