Chapter 439: The way to grow fruit in a can on Fuju Island~
Everything goes well for the ladies' group, but what about the Hong Kong City group?
"The guests in Hong Kong City are generally easy to get along with." Wu Meili took some time to chat with Xu Suizhu, "Except for the communication being a little difficult, fortunately they brought their own translators and basic communication was no problem. Ajie also arranged daily activities
It was very thoughtful. On the first day on the island, they were happy to go up and down the mountains and fields. I provided two meals here. On the second day, they went fishing and dug oysters. The children were very excited. They were more than green and strong.
We were able to play. In the afternoon, we borrowed a barbecue grill and grilled oysters and scallops. I saw Dr. Liu boiling loquat paste yesterday and wanted to ask her to buy it. I went to pick loquats in the morning and went to Dr. Liu's small clinic to see her in the afternoon.
I went to make ointment. The old man from that family also asked Dr. Liu to take a pulse..."
Xu Suizhu twitched her mouth: You can find something to do for yourself!
But when it came to loquat ointment, Xu Suizhu remembered something: "When I transplanted the loquat tree last year, I promised to leave some for Mr. Fu when the loquats were ripe. But he seemed to be on a business trip. When he came back, the loquats would probably be out of the market.
Loquat paste?"
"Okay!" Wu Meili said cheerfully, "When the order from the Education Bureau is completed, I will pick a batch for you and let Dr. Liu help you make loquat paste. It will be convenient for you to give away. By the way, I heard what mom said about the Dragon Boat Festival.
Want to give something to the workers?”
"Yes." Xu Suizhu nodded, "Since the beginning of the new year, everyone has been busy and busy without much rest. Taking advantage of the holiday to give out some benefits can be regarded as a reward for the past six months! Sister-in-law, what can you do?
Any suggestions?"
"I was just about to tell you that there is an overrun of duck eggs on the island. Half of the salted duck eggs are salted, and they are used up quickly before they can be salted. How about we eat eggs during the Dragon Boat Festival? How many should each family share? How about two kilograms of loquats per person?"
With that said, Wu Meili led her to the storage room. Sure enough, the large and small wine jars were all filled with pickled salted duck eggs.
"Why are there so many duck eggs?" Xu Suizhu was surprised.
Wu Meili said: "I see you all like to drink old duck soup. This spring, not only did we hatch a batch of duck seedlings, but we also bought a batch of laying ducks from others. You didn't see so many ducks because of her."
The ducks were released on the seabird beach and raised as wild ducks. I would pick up duck eggs every morning, and occasionally pick up a few bird eggs. I eat very little duck eggs, and they basically boil them, so hoarding them is not enough."
Fortunately, the place is large, and the Seabird Beach area is fenced off for protection. If tourists don’t wander there, they won’t be so smelly by the duck shit that they want to escape!
Xu Suizhu held his forehead and couldn't laugh or cry.
"That's okay, give each person a few, and give each person two pounds of loquats...ah, that's right!" Xu Suizhu suddenly remembered, "Are the lychees almost ripe?"
"It's almost here." Wu Meili said with a smile, "I'm just telling you! If you didn't mention such a good thing, I would have forgotten it. Don't worry, I'll just hang around if I have nothing to do. I'll remember which ones I'm familiar with and which ones I'm not!
Those lychee trees can produce about seven to eight hundred kilograms, do you have any plans?"
Xu Suizhu smiled helplessly: "I have forgotten them all, how can I have any plans? Otherwise, how many kilograms should be given to the workers first, and some can be discussed later?"
As a result, when the guests from Hong Kong City arrived, they heard that the lychees were almost ripe and asked why they were not canned so that they could buy some to take home as souvenirs.
"..." She has no intention of getting involved in the canning industry!
"Canned food is great!"
The wife group also expressed their opinions:
"We can make it into cans and take some back to Kyoto for our family to try."
"The fruits grown on your island are so delicious! It's a pity that it's too troublesome to bring them. Pack them up and send them, as they tend to rot easily. If they can be made into canned fruits, I will personally order ten or eight boxes of them."
"..."
"Otherwise, just go with it." Wu Meili thought for a while and said, "I'll ask Factory Director Zhao. He said when we chatted with us before that he knew the director of the cannery in the county. Why don't you ask him to ask? If it's a can
If the factory is willing to take the order, we don’t have to worry about what to do when the fruit is ripe.”
In this way, the fruits of Fuju Island took the first step in "canning".
Wu Meili went to the countryside to set up a factory the next day, explained her purpose to Director Zhao, and asked him if he could help.
Factory Director Zhao was very happy. Wu Meili was a great benefactor in setting up the factory in their hometown. Without her, how could there be such a prosperous packaging workshop today?
He immediately took her to a cannery in the western suburbs of the county.
"This cannery belongs to the earliest state-owned enterprises in our county. It used to supply supplies to supply and marketing cooperatives. The departments inside are much more complicated than those in our township. Lao Liang, who I know, is in charge of the workshop. I can only
He said he would try to persuade him to help you, but it may not work."
On the way, Director Zhao introduced the situation of the cannery.
When Wu Meili heard this, she couldn't help but feel uncertain.
Unexpectedly, when we arrived at the field, we found that the cannery was deserted and there were not many workers in sight.
I went to the workshop director who was acquainted with Director Zhao and asked, "Okay! It turns out that because the efficiency was so poor, we had to cut down on expenses and lay off a group of employees."
At the end, Director Liang sighed: "Old Zhao, you are still doing well!"
Director Zhao opened his mouth: Why do these words sound so familiar? Where have you heard them before?
Think about it more carefully: Oh! Didn't he have the same tone last month? Later, he signed a processing contract with Lin's Fishing Farm, and the stall he rented on the street made a profit every day. This makes people feel good about happy events.
He couldn't help but sigh: "What the hell! I am also being favored by others. Otherwise, my factory may not be much better than yours."
"How do you say this?" Director Liang asked expectantly.
Director Zhao knew everything and explained the whole story in detail.
Director Liang's little eyes lit up when he heard this: "I didn't expect that your small fjord town would have such a leading figure? How wonderful!"
"I said Lao Liang, I came to you today just to introduce business to you. Do you want to take it?"
"what business?"
"Processing canned fruits for private individuals."
"This..." Director Liang hesitated.
State-owned enterprises can be said to be the leaders of other small and large enterprises. They receive orders from either government agencies or department stores. They have never received orders from private individuals.
Director Zhao earnestly advised: "Old Liang, now it is no longer what it used to be. The canned food market is getting smaller and smaller. Even when visiting patients, few people buy canned goods. They all buy those flower and fruit baskets. If you don't think about it anymore,
With the transformation, there will only be fewer and fewer orders!”
Director Liang sighed: "But transformation is not easy. Your suggestion is good, but I have to ask the leader."
"Okay! Then you can find time to ask. Is this urgent or not? It's a bit urgent even if it's not urgent." Director Zhao expressed Wu Meili's thoughts, "The lychees on their island are about to mature. Some guests want to
I was eating canned lychees and said I would take them to Hong Kong City and Kyoto to send to relatives and friends. I ordered several large boxes. Whether your factory is willing to accept this order or not, it is best to respond as soon as possible. If you are not willing to accept it, they will be easy to find.
