After the No. 29 Reclamation Group was restructured into the Lingao No. 9 Fishery Company, all regulations naturally followed those of enterprises affiliated to the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises.
The Ministry of State-owned Enterprises owns all the shares of this company, and the person in charge must also be an official of the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises. Well, this person is Lu Pingping, who is in the sixth grade.
The salary and benefits of the person in charge are also different from those of the person in charge of private companies. Their salary and other benefits are composed of many aspects. First of all, grade-level salaries will be paid according to official standards.
If you are in the sixth grade, your grade salary is about 400 taels of silver per year.
However, just like other officials and their job salaries, for each different position, officials will also receive a part of their job salary. Taking Zhengliupin as an example, the job with the highest salary is the magistrate of a county.
Then there are the state's second-in-command, the local government department's first-in-command, and other major responsible persons.
As for officials with ordinary positions, their job salaries are lower.
Then there are various subsidies, but these subsidies basically depend on the location. If you are in a wealthy area or department, the subsidies will be larger. If you are in a poor area or Qingshui Yamen, the subsidies will naturally be less.
In total, a sixth-grade county magistrate in a medium-sized county can earn more than a thousand taels of silver per year!
Other ordinary sixth-grade officials can earn between 500 taels and 1,000 taels.
As a sixth-grade official under the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises and the general manager of Lingao Erjiu Fishery Company, Lu Pingfa can get more money every month than the county magistrate. All kinds of salary subsidies add up.
You can get at least three thousand taels of silver every year.
However, that's not all!
As the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises’ incentive policy for the main leaders of state-owned enterprises, he can also receive performance bonuses!
Because the salary of a person in charge of a large enterprise in a private enterprise is quite high. If he were not paid a salary, he would simply be the boss and earn higher profits. Therefore, in order to balance the mentality of the persons in charge of these state-owned enterprises, at the same time
It can also be regarded as an attempt to compete with private enterprises for talents.
Therefore, in addition to the normal official salary, Lu Pingfa can also receive performance bonuses every year. The performance bonuses are based on the company's operating conditions. The quality of this operating condition is not evaluated based on profit, but on multiple aspects.
After all, not every company under the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises is profitable. In fact, many companies are not making money or even losing money.
For example, the Guangzhou Shipyard, which was currently the largest shipyard in the Tang Dynasty and provided a large number of warships to the Tang Navy, actually did not make much money.
Because when the military orders warships, it often keeps the price very low. In order to support national defense, the Guangzhou Shipyard cannot charge too high a price. Although there is room for profit, this profit is not
That's too much.
Then, Guangzhou Shipyard has been in the process of expansion, and the profits earned are not even enough to sustain the expansion. It is necessary to build new dry docks, purchase various machinery and equipment, and develop various new shipbuilding technologies.
Spend money.
So in fact, the Guangzhou Shipyard has always relied on grants from the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises and loans from the Royal Bank, let alone profits.
However, you can't say that the general manager of Guangzhou Shipyard did a bad job. In fact, he did a very good job. In a few years, he expanded the scale of Guangzhou Shipyard several times, and his technical level is getting better and better. At present, he even
Following Hong Kong Dingsheng Shipyard, it undertook the order for the Navy's second battleship and made a huge contribution to supporting Datang's coastal defense undertakings.
Therefore, this has created a very interesting situation. Many companies in the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises are losing money, but many of their leaders still receive high performance bonuses!
However, Guangzhou Shipyard is not willing to continue operating at a loss. It has already issued a report saying that Guangzhou Shipyard is preparing to design the civilian ship market and compete with other private shipyards and the Royal Industry's Dingsheng Shipyard for civilian ships, especially ocean-going merchant ships.
in market segments.
At present, the shipping market of the Tang Dynasty is in full swing. This is not only because of trade relations with other countries, but actually more because of the prosperity of China's coastal and river trade.
Although import and export are prosperous, their proportion in the entire industrial and commercial economic market of Datang is still small compared to China's local market.
Nowadays, there are many ships traveling along the coast of the Tang Dynasty. In the Pearl River Basin, Yangtze River Basin, Canal, Yellow River Basin and other inland rivers, the number of ships is also increasing day by day.
Offshore transportation and inland waterway transportation have become the main artery of Datang's current industrial and commercial economy.
Under such a background, the shipping market is naturally very hot. Many shipowners are waving banknotes to buy ships. If it is a current ship, they can increase the price to buy it on the spot.
Today's shipyards, no matter how big or small, as long as they can build ships, they basically make money. Small shipyards build some small inland river ships, while large shipyards build large inland river ships and even sea-going ships.
No matter what shipyard or type of ship they are, demand exceeds supply.
The Type 680 merchant ships at Dingsheng Shipyard, not counting the separate orders from Datang Western Company within the royal industry, the cumulative orders received from the outside world alone have exceeded 20 ships, and the delivery date is
It was already sent five years later!
Guangzhou Shipyard is also jealous of this market. Their shipbuilding technology is no worse than that of Dingsheng Shipyard. Moreover, as a subsidiary of the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, they have also obtained the patent authorization for the Type 680 merchant ship.
They are just waiting for approval from the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises to enter the civilian ship market!
As for the officials at the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, they have long had a headache. The Guangzhou Shipyard is asking them for money every year, and what they want is not just small amounts, but tens of thousands of taels of silver. Last year, it was even more excessive. According to a report
Called and told them that they needed 60,000 taels of silver to purchase machinery and equipment and build a new dry dock.
Although their Ministry of State-owned Enterprises is rich and can pool the profits of many of its subordinate companies, the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises also has a big business and a lot of expenses!
After several years of development, there are already dozens of affiliated companies, and many of these dozens of companies are large-scale comprehensive enterprises with many subsidiaries underneath.
Although they make a lot of money, there are more companies spending money. Every one of them says they want to expand and use money. Their officials in the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises are not the God of Wealth, so how can they conjure up so much money for them.
What's more, using the profits of other companies to subsidize another company, the big men in the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises don't care. It's all the country's money anyway, and it has nothing to do with them. It's used wherever it is used, but those who make money turn over the profits.
But companies would be unwilling to do so.
According to regulations, people will turn over their profits every year, but they also hope to get the money back. Why do they want to get it back? Naturally, it is to continue to expand and invest in building new factories. If that doesn't work, they can use it to pay wages and improve workers' conditions.
It’s also good!
Therefore, in fact, although these state-owned enterprises that have made money have turned over the money, a lot of it will still be taken back by them.
If you can’t get it back, and you’re not stupid, you may still make a profit this year, but you may lose money next year!
How to lose money?
Direct investment to build factories, increase wages, and recruit more people. If you do this, no matter how much profit you make, you can invest it in reproduction.
Well, in fact, this kind of thing has been done by several large-scale enterprises under the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, such as Jiangnan Arms Company. This company was established not long ago, but it made a lot of money, but it didn't turn over a dime of profit, and it still suffered losses every year.
, where did the money earned go? It was all invested in expansion and expansion.
Otherwise, could the enterprises under Jiangnan Arms Company expand so fast?
As for Jiangnan Weapons Company's approach, the superiors actually maintained acquiescence, or even supported it, because today's Datang Dynasty urgently needs to establish a complete military production system in the Yangtze River Basin.
Only in this way can the needs of the army be better supplied. It cannot be done as in the past, where everything must be transported from the Guangdong and Guangxi regions by sea ships.
Jiangnan Arms Company is a microcosm, and the same is true for Guangzhou Shipyard. Therefore, enterprises under the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises make a lot of money and lose more money, but Lingao Erjiu Fishery Company is different.
Profits are naturally high, because salted fish these days is actually a very special commodity!
Why, because it contains salt!
In the Tang Dynasty, salt was state-owned, and outsiders would not interfere at all.
But before Erjiu Fishery Company, they built a small coastal salt farm for their own production and use!
This shop sells salted fish, but in fact it can be considered as buying salt by the way.
Unfortunately, the former Erjiu Fishery Company was owned by the military and had nothing to do with the outside world and could not control it.
But things are different now. After the restructuring, Datang Salt Company did not take into account the sentiments of the enterprises that were also affiliated with the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises. They directly sued and took back the salt farm of Erjiu Fishery Company.
However, a small opening was still opened, that is, Erjiu Fishery Company was allowed to purchase a large amount of salt for production at a price lower than that of private salt.
For Erjiu Fishery Company, although this has reduced a large chunk of profits, the profits are still huge!
After all, they have already expanded their scale. Erjiu brand canned salted fish is a well-known brand in China today, and it is expensive. In inland areas, even dignitaries want to eat Shanghai fish.
Basically, I can only eat 29 brand canned salted fish.
Erjiu Fishery Company, which is still very profitable, has high turnover and high profits, so the taxes it pays are naturally high. According to the current scale of Erjiu Fishery Company, it is no problem at all to pay more than 100,000 taels of silver in taxes a year.
.
However, here comes the problem. How many people are there in Lingao County now? In previous years, the tax revenue was less than tens of thousands of taels of silver. Now, a Erjiu Fishing Company can pay hundreds of thousands of tax dollars every year. What is this if not the God of Wealth?
