Zhang Yanling looked at the coal store of Xishan Coal Co., Ltd. opposite. There was still a long queue here, and the clerks in the store were very busy, no different from before.
"Our briquettes were all sold out within an hour, but it seems like Xishan Coal Industry's briquettes will never be sold out."
"And have you noticed that the sales of Xishan Coal Industry have a clear division of labor. Some people collect money, while others pick up and deliver goods. Their sales speed is at least several times faster than ours."
"In the same hour, we sold more than 20,000 pieces of briquettes. It is estimated that Xishan Coal has sold tens of thousands of briquettes. And as far as I know, Xishan Coal has opened a total of five stores in various places throughout the capital.
At each branch, the sales situation is similar."
"That is to say, the briquettes sold by Xishan Coal Industry in one hour are at least ten times that of ours. They have to buy more than 200,000 pieces of briquettes in one hour. They sell them from morning to night. Don't they have to sell nearly 100 pieces of briquettes in one hour?
Ten thousand pieces of briquettes?”
Zhang Heling looked at the prosperous Xishan Coal Coal Store opposite and kept calculating.
Soon I discovered a surprising problem. I didn't have enough briquettes to sell, and the coal here at Xishan Coal Industry seemed to never be sold out. Nearly a million pieces of briquettes were sold this day. This amount is really real.
It's amazing.
Originally, they didn't deal in briquettes, so they didn't know how to calculate this thing.
Now that they are also making briquettes, they know that there is no need to worry about the sales of briquettes. The population of Beijing is very large. This briquettes can be used for cooking, heating, boiling water, etc. The demand for briquettes is very strong.
Supply exceeds demand.
No matter how much briquettes there are, they can be sold out. Zhang's Coal Industry sells more than 20,000 briquettes a day, and all of them are sold out in an hour.
The key now is production. We have hired thousands of villagers to make briquettes and can make more than 20,000 pieces of briquettes a day.
However, the output of Xishan Coal Industry seems to be much higher than that of our own. Five stores were open to sell it a day, and the coal fleet never stopped, as if there was endless briquettes to sell.
"If I remember correctly, you said last time that Xishan Coal Industry employs thousands of people to make briquettes."
Zhang Heling turned to Zhang Yanling and asked.
"Yes, that's right. I asked people to find out clearly that the people working in Xishan Coal Industry are mainly villagers from Xishan Village. Calculated, there are more than 1,000 people. A few days ago, some refugees were recruited. Calculated, the maximum number is
That’s more than 2,000 people.”
"At the beginning, I also recruited people according to the manpower provided by Xishan Coal Industry. I also recruited thousands of people. At that time, brother, you also agreed. Is there any problem with this?"
Zhang Yanling still hasn't figured out the crux of the problem and said in confusion.
"The problem is huge. We employ thousands of people and can only produce more than 20,000 briquettes a day. So one person only produces 20 briquettes a day."
"The Xishan Coal Industry also employs thousands of people. They can produce hundreds of thousands of briquettes a day. Calculating, one person can produce hundreds or even thousands of briquettes a day. Do you think there is any problem?"
Zhang Heling glared at Zhang Yanling fiercely, and after a simple calculation, he immediately discovered the problem.
"this…"
Zhang Yanling was dumbfounded for a moment. After carefully calculating this idea in his mind, he understood it immediately.
"These guys, for ten cents a day, they produced 20 pieces of briquettes for each of us. I will bury them all in the mountains when I get back."
Then Zhang Yanling couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said that no one would believe that he produced 20 pieces of briquettes in a day, but the numbers don't lie, and this is the fact.
"No, although the people under our command are capable of cheating and cheating, our supervision is also very strict, so the work is actually pretty good."
"The reason why our output is low is because our briquettes need to be excavated from the mountains. Transportation alone is a big problem. Carrying it on the shoulder can only weigh a few dozen kilograms per person per trip. In addition, transportation is also required.
Come to the capital, there are many production steps and so on."
"I estimate that Sangong Coal Industry and Zhou's Coal Industry should be similar to us, and they won't be too far apart."
"It's just that the output of Xishan Coal Industry is so high. It's really hard to figure out."
Zhang Heling pondered, shook his head and said.
"We must learn from Xishan Coal. If Xishan Coal does what it does, we will do it. There will be no problem."
"If we can have such a high output as Xishan Coal Industry, and the daily output can increase ten times or dozens of times, then it is possible to earn tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of taels this year."
"I now understand that I was not lying. This briquette can actually earn millions of taels of silver a year."
Zhang Heling quickly thought of a way. He couldn't figure out why the output of Xishan Coal Industry was so high. There was a very simple way, and that was to learn from Xishan Coal Industry.
Whatever Xishan Coal Industry does here, they will do it.
Innovation in this world may be a technical job, and it is difficult to innovate, but it is very simple to learn from others, and the Zhang brothers have always been very "easy to learn" in this regard. As long as they make money, they must be willing to learn anything.
.
"Brother~how to learn?"
Zhang Yanling nodded and asked, seeming to understand.
"Isn't Xishan Coal Mining recruiting a lot of refugees? We are also recruiting refugees. Go find out what benefits Xishan Coal Mining offered when they recruited refugees. We are all the same."
"We are also looking for someone to go to Xishan and carefully inquire about the situation at Xishan Coal Industry, especially what Liu Jin does every day and what he says. We brothers will all learn from Liu Jin in the future.
I don’t believe it if we just copy it. The output of Xishan Coal Mining can reach hundreds of thousands of yuan a day, but we only have 20,000 yuan.”
Zhang Heling seemed to have made a decision and said decisively.
"Yes, I will ask people to recruit refugees and ask people to go to Xishan to find out more."
"Is it possible that the people here in Xishan are all weak-minded? They can produce hundreds of thousands of briquettes on this day. How do they do it?"
"Do they all eat chicken every day?"
Zhang Yanling nodded repeatedly, then touched his head and said, in his opinion, the most motivating thing for a person is to eat chicken.
