In the next few days, Cao Mo first completed the transfer procedures for the old house in Tianzifang, and then completed the registration procedures for the trading company.
All the information was prepared and submitted by Baocheng Accounting Firm. Cao Mo followed Chen Feng to the industrial and commercial departments in Qingshan District, showed his face and signed when checking the materials, and then went to the bank to open a company account.
Carve the official seal at the designated place and the entire procedure is completed.
When deciding on the name of the company, Cao Mo thought of calling it Yuhou Tianqing Trading Co., Ltd., but Song Yuqing didn't allow it, so in the end he directly registered it as Cornero Trading Co., Ltd.
Cao Mo and Chen Feng also visited seven or eight food companies in Xinhai and surrounding areas that produced cocoa powder.
However, like Xinxuan Food Co., Ltd., these companies were actually more interested in purchasing fruit shells and peels from West Africa, and Cao Mo was helpless.
After a few days, Cao Mo and Chen Feng had almost figured out the price difference of domestic cocoa powder, which was mainly based on the proportion of pure cocoa powder added with husk and dregs peel powder.
These cheap and inferior cocoa powders are mainly sold to domestic small and medium-sized food manufacturers, resulting in millions of tons of inferior chocolate candies flowing into the markets of third- and fourth-tier cities and rural areas every year.
If domestic cocoa powder manufacturers only produce high-quality cocoa powder and sell it to domestic brand candy and pastry manufacturers, they have very strict requirements for the supply of cocoa beans, and even require that the cocoa beans produced in Lonta meet a specific flavor. We are currently trying to negotiate smoothly.
It is still somewhat unrealistic to sign a supply agreement.
Food Co., Ltd. like Xinxuan supplies cocoa powder of various qualities to the downstream. They mainly purchase cocoa cakes or ready-made pure cocoa powder from cocoa butter and cocoa powder manufacturers, and then add different proportions of cocoa powder.
Nut shells and peel powder are mixed and sold.
Although Cao Mo was not a person with a strong sense of justice, he still didn't bother to do the business of buying cocoa husks and dregs that were like garbage from Kanem and exporting them to the country.
However, the current situation in the country is such that he does not bother to do it, so his original plan needs to be adjusted.
…………
…………
Song Yuqing couldn't hold back her curiosity and accompanied Cao Mo to Tianzifang to see the old house No. 118 that he had just transferred to his name. She was also quite shocked when she heard Cao Mo talk about the inside story of the domestic cocoa powder market:
"Isn't it said that the skin peeled off from the coarsely chopped cocoa beans contains harmful substances and is bad for the human body? Why do they dare to grind it and mix it into cocoa powder for sale?"
"Who cares about shame and conscience when there is profit at hand?"
The original landlord kept all the old furniture. Cao Mo sat on a Ming-style official hat chair and said leisurely.
"Then what are you going to do? Build a processing plant directly in the Cornero Lake Industrial Park?" Song Yuqing asked with great interest, "You are so stingy that you are willing to let Chen Feng take half a year of your agency fees in vain?"
To adjust the plan, there is no way to cooperate with domestic cocoa powder manufacturers, so we can only directly produce cocoa butter and cocoa powder ourselves, and then export them to the country.
The construction of a cocoa bean processing plant is not complicated and the investment is very limited. However, the problem is that it will take less than half a year to build the first phase of the Conero Lake Industrial Park with complete transportation, water, electricity and communication supporting facilities.
In other words, the cocoa bean processing plant and the supporting facilities of the first phase of the Conero Lake Industrial Park were built at the same time, so it would take half a year before they could supply domestic products.
This was originally something Cao Mo wanted to do in half a year to a year, so there is nothing wrong with doing it now.
In other words, Baocheng Accounting Firm does not have to do much work for half a year, but the agency fees received from Cao Mo still have to be counted.
Who told them to sign up for the annual service?
"Oh, the Sika family owns a small cocoa butter processing factory in Lonta town that is jointly operated with other families. I have talked with Lucy Abacha and plan to acquire this processing factory in my own name in addition to the Sika family.
All the shares other than the new factory - in the future, when the new factory is built, the employees of the old factory's operation and management team can directly move there, saving the trouble of reorganizing the team."
Cao Mo crossed his feet and said,
"I have also asked Lucy to mail the cocoa butter and cocoa cake produced by this processing plant to Xinhai. I do not plan to cooperate with domestic cocoa powder manufacturers and plan to directly develop downstream users. Although millions of tons of them are used every year
Inferior cocoa butter, inferior candies produced from cocoa powder, and Western pastries fill the domestic market, but you can also see that the living conditions of the domestic people are getting better and better. I don’t know about other places, but I haven’t returned to Xinhai in three years, and Xinhai is now in China
Competition among high-end Western-style pastry chains has become fierce, and high-quality cocoa butter and cocoa powder should be able to sell well."
"Let me just say, Chen Feng wants to take half a year's agency fee from you for free, so there is obviously no way," Song Yuqing said with a smile, "But before, you mainly supplied goods to upstream manufacturers, and your business volume was very limited. Xinhai is just that.
Several food factories, or even just one of them, can link up your business. But now you plan to supply directly to the candy factories and Western chain stores scattered downstream. The business volume seems to be a bit large.
Yeah. Why didn’t Zhang Li complain to me?”
Cao Mo pulled Song Yuqing to sit on his lap and said, "I'm not as heartless as you think - I talked to Chen Feng today, and I will personally inject another 200,000 yuan into his accounting firm in exchange for 20%
shares. Chen Feng agreed to recruit three more full-time salesmen, who would specialize in this area of business. In addition to the 200,000 previously agreed, 2% of the sales would be used as agency fees to pay to
Baocheng!"
"What's going on? Didn't Baocheng tell you to make yourself look different?" Song Yuqing struggled, so she moved forward and sat on Cao Mo's knee. Thinking of Baocheng being tossed around like this by Cao Mo, the matter
It's not like a firm, it's not like a trading company, it's just the same thing.
"I think Chen Feng must have stumbled on someone secretly. His accounting firm really doesn't have much business. What's wrong with me giving him more business now?" Cao Mo said, "If Baocheng...
If he can make sales of 20 to 30 million for me a year, he can have business income of 600,700,000, and if he can make sales of 100 million, he can be a young model in Xinhai, and he will be better than him no matter what.
Isn’t it much better to support such a firm before?”
"Are you thinking about the young models in the club?" Song Yuqing said angrily.
"There must be a goal in life." Cao Mo said with salivation.
After interacting with Chen Feng in the past few days, Cao Mo could feel that Chen Feng had the ambition to make a career, and his abilities and actions were not weak. He was not as scheming as Yang Deshan and Xie Sipeng.
However, Cornero Trading Company is a reservoir for Cao Mo to transfer profits in the future. Chen Feng is not yet a direct descendant whom he absolutely trusts, so Cao Mo will naturally not ask Chen Feng to participate in the company to hold shares.
However, investing in the name of Cornero Trading Company and registering a new nested company in a joint venture with Chen Feng is currently a bit cumbersome.
After weighing the situation, the expedient solution was to temporarily establish a specialized business group under the name of Baocheng Accounting Firm.
If we can really expand the domestic sales scale, we can directly establish the framework of Cornero Trading Company, or nest a business subsidiary under Cornero Trading Company and directly transfer the personnel.
Not a big problem.
Hearing Cao Mo talk about his plan, Song Yuqing slightly pouted her moist and attractive lips and said, "You can come to an agreement among yourselves and don't want me to be the evil one in between."
"Close your eyes..." Cao Mo said.
"What?" Song Yuqing asked.
"I told you to close your eyes and just be obedient," Cao Mo said.
Song Yuqing closed her eyes, but held Cao Mo's hand tightly to prevent his hands from getting into her clothes restlessly.
"You are so stingy, let go..." Cao Mo said.
"The clothes will wrinkle." Song Yuqing said softly.
"I gave you something, where did you want to go?" Cao Mo said, but he was still very shameless and put his cheek against Song Yuqing's chest.
Song Yuqing let go, but grabbed her waistband. After a while, she felt Cao Mo stuff a pen into her hand, and then put a thick stack of paper under her hand.
She wanted to open her eyes, but Cao Mo covered her eyes with one hand.
"Sign your name here." Cao Mo said.
"What is it?" Song Yuqing asked.
"Sign the contract of betrayal quickly," Cao Mo said.
Song Yuqing wanted to take off Cao Mo's hand, but in the end Cao Mo urged her to reluctantly sign: "Can you show me what it is now?"
"Ah! Why are your hands so annoying!"
While Song Yuqing was reading the agreement, Cao Mo's hand got into her clothes. Seeing that her protest was useless, Song Yuqing clamped his hand to prevent him from touching it.
"It's so cold, let me cover my hands!"
Cao Mo hugged Song Yuqing tighter, rested his chin on her shoulder, and rubbed their ears and temples together.
"What is this? I said I don't want shares in the trading company!" Song Yuqing saw in her hand an equity transfer agreement for Cornero Trading Company. Cao Mo wanted to transfer 20% of the shares of Cornero Trading Company to her.
under the name.
"I'm not giving you 20% of all the money I earn. Why are you pushing me? You signed it, so you can't deny it! In the future, Cornero Trading Company will probably only get 20% of all the money I earn from the cocoa butter trade.
Ten to twenty percent of the due profits; and the part of the funds I transferred from Kanem to the country will be included in accounts payable. Otherwise, corporate value-added tax and income tax will kill me.
.So, if you want to make more money in the future, you have to help me build a trading company..." Cao Mo said.
