Because there is still a section of the road that is not hardened, you can only walk in. Because the road inside has been hardened, it is much more comfortable to walk on.
It used to take more than half an hour to walk into the village, but now it only takes about ten minutes to walk in, which is much easier.
Qin Feng, Li Dejun, Wang Manzi and Wang Erbao were talking while walking. Wang Manzi was very excited when talking about this road.
This road has been the dream of generations of people in Niujiaoshan Village. It has finally been realized in the hands of Wang Manzi, the village party secretary. Can he be unhappy?
Arriving at Wang Manzi's house, Wang Erbao once again scattered cigarettes for Qin Feng and Li Dejun.
"Er Bao, please tell me about the situation and your plans. Why do you want to come back and open a furniture factory?" Qin Feng asked.
"Actually, it's not me who wants to open a factory, but our boss..."
This Wang Erbao went to Guangdong to work when he was a teenager after graduating from junior high school. He worked there for more than ten years in a furniture factory. Because he is smart and knows how to do things, he worked from an apprentice to a supervisor in the factory.
The boss’s respect.
In recent years, affected by rising labor wages, although the factory's export orders have not decreased, its profits have become lower and lower, and it will still lose money in bad years.
Many bosses have chosen to move their factories to Southeast Asia, but the business environment in Southeast Asia is not good, and they are going abroad, which makes their bosses hesitant.
So their boss wanted to find another way and move the factory to the central and western parts of the mainland, where wages are much lower.
"The boss's family has a big business, so relocating the factory involves a lot of investment and risks. The most important thing is that his base camp is in Guangdong. He doesn't want to take this risk, so he wants to contract out all the parts of the furniture factory and let others do it for him.
The factory in Guangdong will do the final assembly."
"I think this is an opportunity, just take it and give it a try. I calculated carefully and found that it is profitable. The salary of workers in a furniture factory in Guangdong will not be less than 6,000, but here, we only earn 3,000 yuan a month."
There are many people rushing to do it in Qianhui. Although there are logistics costs, they are not too high. Calculating this, the profits will still be considerable."
"I decided that there is another reason. I want to find something to do for the people of Niujiaoshan Village and increase their income. I had this idea before, but our road has not been repaired, so there is no need to discuss anything."
"The road will be repaired soon, so I think I can come back and do it." Wang Erbao said while passing cigarettes to Qin Feng and Li Dejun.
After all, he is someone who has worked in management in a big place, and he talks and behaves as if he has seen big events.
"How much money are you prepared to invest?" Qin Feng then asked.
"I really don't have much money. The most I can afford is 500,000, but our boss is willing to lend me 3 million. The 3 million will be deducted from the future payment. Therefore, I can only invest 3.5 million."
.”
"How many people will you need to work after your factory is established?"
"I'm not sure about this. In the early stage, I estimate that we will need fifty or sixty workers. Because the investment scale is small, there can only be so many. But as long as I start doing it and make money, I will further expand the scale of our boss's factory.
It’s very big, and the order volume is also huge, and I can’t finish it at all. So, as long as I increase my investment, I won’t worry about running out of orders..."
Hearing this, Qin Feng was a little tempted. If we could provide employment for 100 people in Niujiaoshan Village, that would be 100 families, and the quality of life would be greatly improved.
"Tell me, you came to me specifically to talk about this matter. What's the difficulty?" Qin Feng asked.
"The difficulty is...there are too many licenses required to open a furniture factory, such as "Timber Business License", "Timber Business and Processing License", "Production License", "Fire Protection License", "Environmental Protection Approval", etc.
etc"
"The previous certificates are easy to obtain, but the "Fire Protection Permit" and "Environmental Protection Approval" are not easy to process."
"Why?"
"You also know that I can only attract so much investment in the early stage. Whether it is fire protection or environmental protection, we need to purchase additional equipment in accordance with standardized requirements. The relevant requirements must be met. Maybe... I can only invest so much.
We only have enough for fire protection and environmental protection, but there is no way to purchase production equipment and raw materials." Wang Erbao showed a troubled expression.
"Do you want me to give you the green light to open the factory if you don't get these certificates?" Qin Feng asked.
"You are playing the piano randomly. This is a national regulation. If you do not have complete documents, you cannot set up a factory. Do you know that if it is investigated or there is an accident, Secretary Qin will be responsible." Li Dejun was very angry.
.
"No, no, no, Secretary Qin, Mayor Li, it's not that I won't do it, but I will put it aside for the time being. While producing, I will slowly build the consumption and environmental protection equipment according to the requirements, because I can only have production while doing it.
Use the money to do this."
"I promised the two leaders that as long as I have money, I will get these certificates immediately. After all, if I want to make the factory bigger and do it for a long time, I must have all these certificates. But in
I do have difficulties in the initial stage, let's see if I can delay it a little..." Wang Erbao said quickly.
"That won't work. Who will be responsible if something goes wrong? If you do this, if Secretary Qin guarantees you, you will lose your official title if something goes wrong." Li Dejun's attitude was very firm.
Qin Feng kept smoking and said nothing.
"Tell me the truth, how long will it take you to get these certificates?"
"Two years, Secretary Qin, I won't tell you lies, it will take at least two years." Wang Erbao said.
"Two years... Then do you estimate how many people's employment problems will be solved in two years?"
"Give me two years, I can at least provide employment for 150 people." Wang Erbao said with certainty.
"Secretary Qin, I have been working in this industry for more than ten years and I am very familiar with this industry. This factory can definitely continue to operate and grow bigger and bigger. The wages of our workers here are low, which is the biggest advantage now."
"Even if I do OEM in the early stage, as long as I grow and develop, in the end I can produce and sell by myself, whether it is foreign trade or domestic sales, I have channels, I am confident." Wang Erbao is very confident.
Qin Feng remained silent and smoked heavily.
"I understand this matter. Please let me think about it carefully. You can also make relevant preparations here. No matter what, we welcome you back to invest. It is inevitable that you will encounter problems.
Let’s solve the problem.”
"Let's open up the factory first, and then we'll slowly solve the subsequent problems, and we'll always find a solution." Qin Feng said finally.
Although he did not give a definite answer, he also gave Qin Feng's attitude.
Wang Manzi wanted to stay with Qin Feng for dinner, but Qin Feng refused. In the past, Qin Feng didn't care about these things. He thought that he and Wang Manzi were friends and it was fine to be casual among friends. But after this incident, he understood a lot of truths and
As Xie Zhiguo said, you must learn to protect yourself. No one knows whether the enemy is secretly watching you.
Qin Feng and Li Dejun walked out, then got into the car. When the car drove out, Qin Feng saw a pair of Maotai wines and a Hetianxia cigarette in the car.
