At night, there were still a large group of people coming to buy, and they never stopped.
In the end, they were sold out. The average price of meat was 6 cents per pound, and the price of vegetables was 2 cents!
Meat alone was sold for 3,000 yuan, and vegetables were sold for 3,000 yuan. After deducting the cost, I made about 5,000 yuan today!
"Everyone has worked hard today. Everyone will be given a bonus of 20 yuan, and the remaining vegetables and meat will be given a share. Pack them up and go home!"
There are still some scattered pieces of meat and vegetables left that can no longer be sold!
But don’t tell me, this stuff tastes good, because it’s all sunk down, and it takes longer to marinate, so it tastes even better!
This is the only thing that the clerks like the most. Even though it’s all in pieces, it’s still meat, and it’s still a vegetable. If it’s rice, just put a bowl of rice on it.
Some people even want to chop it up a little more, just pour the white rice with the marinade, and put the minced braised pork directly on top. Oh my god, braised pork rice!
After eating and drinking, a group of people began to clean up. After tidying up, they all went home.
"Go together and be careful on the road!"
"okay!"
It was already late at night when everything was done, and Lin Fan also went home.
After you get home, wash up, and the wonderful day is over!
Lin Fan did not live such a good life every day, mainly because he had few good treasures.
The moment passed quickly, and in the next period of time, Lin Fan made a lot of money. Zheng Sheng and Zhou Li, it was a matter of course. Their goals were beyond words. Zheng Sheng mainly helped by collecting rags.
Lin Fan is looking for something.
The same is true for Zhou Li, but if Zheng Sheng is a formal channel, then Zhou Li is a dark channel.
They don’t fight, and they don’t follow the tricks of the underworld, but directly use things to deceive foreigners!
Lin Fan had thought about this a long time ago. He didn't like foreigners in the first place, so when buying and selling cultural relics, he would do whatever he could to deceive them.
However, Lin Fan's bottom line for Zhou Li and others is not to cheat your own people!
No matter how rich you are, you won’t cheat your own people, only foreigners!
Zhou Li didn't understand it at first, but later he understood it!
Foreigners are rich!
They are all foreign exchange coupons!
Recently, Zhou Li has been reluctant to collect foreign exchange coupons. A commission of 10% is actually a lot. You know, since the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, antique brokers have generally made three to two!
The only thing that makes a difference is a 5% handling fee, or an introduction fee.
However, the rule since the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China is that the "成" in "成三" refers to the buyer. When the sale is completed, you give me a 3% agency fee, and the seller is "broken"
One party gave "two", which is 2%!
Add it all up, that’s 5%!
This kind of people are called brokers, but when they were old, they would call people "those who hit the quick spoon", which was very popular during the Republic of China.
In the past, this was used in real estate agencies, but gradually it has been used in all walks of life.
So, the intermediary thing has been around since ancient times, and there were brokers even before the Qing Dynasty, but the rules are different. This is a rule set by the late Qing Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty.
Although Lin Fan had nothing to do during this period, he did not stop his actions.
Society is developing at a rapid pace. Although there have been some ups and downs during this period, for him, these are not his problems.
While fishing, he met a friend who had gone out to visit friends and returned.
The fishing friend told him some interesting things about the train, including the food on the train.
This made Lin Fan notice. Nowadays, travel is basically by train, and food on the train is a big problem.
Nowadays, unlike in later generations, transportation is developed, such as trains, high-speed rails, highways, airplanes, etc., a series of tools can allow you to go where you want to go.
Moreover, as travel became more convenient in later generations, a variety of convenient foods also appeared.
The most critical and indispensable thing on the train is instant noodles. The emergence of barrel noodles has given a large number of train passengers a choice.
The profits from this are quite considerable.
Lin Fan was interested in this. He wanted to open a factory, an instant noodle factory.
Talking about instant noodles, he was also a little greedy. He wanted to eat it when he didn't eat it, especially the taste.
Thinking back on how to make instant noodles, Lin Fan started experimenting.
In less than a month, Lin Fan actually made instant noodles, and even asked He Yuzhu to make the sauce packets for the instant noodles.
The key is that you can feel safe eating the instant noodles you make yourself. You don’t have to worry about the sauerkraut buns that smell like feet, and you don’t have to worry about feeling nauseated after seeing the sauerkraut making process.
After all, I made it myself and I will eat it too.
Now that it was done, Lin Fan said he should take action. He was going to find dld.
...
Arriving at dld's house, dld took Lin Fan to the study.
The two first talked about some things about the steel rolling mill. At the same time, dld also felt a little regretful about Lin Fan resigning and going into business.
However, he also expressed his appreciation for Lin Fan's ability to stand up immediately.
When the two of them were about to chat, Lin Fan put forward his thoughts.
"In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, I also start with 'food'. After all, food is the most important thing for people, so we have a braised vegetable restaurant so that everyone in Sijiu City can eat meat."
"Recently I have developed a novel food and plan to open a factory specifically to produce it."
"The food you researched?" Dld asked curiously.
"Wait a minute, I have this kind of food in my car. I'll show it to you." Lin Fan said.
"Go ahead." Dld nodded.
Lin Fan walked out and came back after a while, holding a bag of homemade instant noodles in his hand.
"Wait a moment, this thing needs to be soaked."
After Lin Fan finished speaking, he went to the kitchen and got a large bowl and a pot of boiling water. After tearing open the instant noodles, he put them into the bowl. Then he put the seasonings in the seasoning bag inside, then added boiling water and covered the bowl.
superior.
"You can eat it after three minutes." Lin Fan said.
"That thing just now should be noodles, so you can eat it by soaking it in boiling water for a while?" Dld said with some disbelief.
"Not only is it edible, but it also tastes good." Lin Fan said with a smile.
"I want to see what a good idea is." Dld said with some expectation.
Three minutes passed quickly. Lin Fan opened the bowl, handed a pair of chopsticks to dld, and said, "Try it."
"It smells quite fragrant. The dry piece just now actually soaked completely. It's really amazing." Dld said with some surprise.
Then he took the chopsticks and took a bite. His eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded: "It tastes really good. It's really not easy to make such a delicious thing with such a simple method."
After Dld finished speaking, he continued to eat. After a while, he had finished the bowl of noodles, not even the soup was left.
"Your noodles will definitely sell well. I wonder how much a bag of noodles like this costs?" Dld asked.
"Five cents." Lin Fan said.
dld nodded slightly, the price was quite reasonable, and then asked: "Is there a name on this side?"
"Its main feature is that it is convenient to eat, so I call it instant noodles. Then I will give it different names according to different tastes." Lin Fan said.
The noodle I just ate has already thought of a name for it, it’s called Master Lin’s Braised Beef Noodles.
"Instant noodles, this name is really suitable." Dld nodded.
"This instant noodles is indeed unique. Now that you have decided, I will support you. The business license can be obtained in a month at most." Dld said.
"Thank you dld." Lin Fan said.
"Haha, who gave you such good skills?" Dld said with a smile.
Lin Fan, a machine that produces instant noodles, plans to hand over the order to the steel rolling mill. He happens to have some connections in the steel rolling mill, and he also has the full support of dld.
When the time comes, he can just hand it over to his apprentice directly. Lin Fan just handed some key parts to him. His apprentice was promoted by him with all his efforts, so he can still keep this a secret.
The next day, Lin Fan came to the Second Steel Rolling Mill. His apprentice Chen Tao was now the director of the workshop.
"Master, you call me." Chen Tao said.
"Chen Tao, this is the drawing of my order. The quantity of each part is written on it. Please hurry up and process them all." Lin Fan handed Chen Tao a stack of drawings. I'm afraid there must be thousands of them.
These drawings were drawn by Lin Fan, and the parts on them were also designed by him. When assembled, it becomes a complete instant noodle production line.
...
"I have chosen the address. It is right at Dongzhimen. It was originally an abandoned factory. The location is not conspicuous and the size is very suitable. There are no other buildings around. It will be very convenient for expansion in the future." Lin Xiaomu reported to Lin Fan.
Check out her achievements in the past half month.
"Okay, that's where it's settled, but it's best to buy it to avoid being constrained by others in the future." Lin Fan nodded. He didn't plan to rent. Anyway, he now has enough funds and can't expand other businesses.
Buying the factory is the most cost-effective option.
"I will go talk to him tomorrow. I think he will agree." Lin Xiaomu said.
Half a month later.
The factory has been built, and the parts have been processed and shipped to the factory.
There are three production lines in total, all of which have been assembled by Lin Fan.
All the workers recruited by He Yuyu have arrived, and Lin Fan began to train the workers.
The process of making instant noodles is not complicated, and it is produced using machines. It only took a week of training for 300 workers to master it.
We picked a good day and the instant noodle factory officially opened.
There was no opening ceremony, no firecrackers and ribbon cutting.
Everything is very low-key.
Starting from early morning, each workshop started operating, adopting the flow operation mode.
While Lin Fan was training the workers, Lin Xiaomu had already gone out to get orders. According to his instructions, the first target was the train station.
This was Lin Xiaomu's own request. She felt that it was not good for her to be at home all the time. Anyway, the stewed vegetable restaurant was on the right track. She only needed to reconcile the accounts every month and deal with the problem of supply.
She also wanted to help Lin Fan. In the past, she was always at home because of her job.
Now that my family has opened a factory, I have to help.
The biggest feature of instant noodles is that it is convenient, so it is most suitable to sell it on the train.
On the opening day, Lin Xiaomu had already secured several orders.
"I brought the instant noodles over to show them, and they liked it very much. They ordered 50,000 packages at the train station, and a total of 50,000 packages from several other non-staple food stores," Lin Xiaomu said.
"Now we have only one production line, which can produce 100,000 packs per day, but all the orders combined are only 100,000 packs, which is only enough for one day. Should we reduce production?" Lin Xiaomu said with some worry.
Although it is not bad to stock up on instant noodles here, it does require funds. The cost of a pack of instant noodles is about 10 cents, and a pack of 100,000 is 10,000 yuan.
If this continues, no matter how much money you have, it won't be enough.
"There is no need to reduce production. Their first order is just to test the waters. After they see the popularity of instant noodles, they will definitely increase their orders," Lin Fan said.
"When the reputation of instant noodles spreads, we won't have to go out to get orders, they will come rushing to get them."
