Chapter 7 Sales

The old branch secretary listened to Zhao Shucheng's plan and didn't speak for a while. After all, the prospect depicted by Zhao Shucheng was indeed very attractive, but it also made him feel a little uneasy.
After all, the joint contract responsibility system can be said to be a task assigned by superiors. They just do it according to the instructions of superiors, but the development of village collective industries is not the instructions of superiors.
Zhao Shucheng asked the old branch secretary not to worry, and he had already had a comprehensive plan. If nothing unexpected happened, the Xiao Lei family would have gone from the poorest village to the best-developed village in the county within one or two years.
The New Year is coming soon. No matter how many ideas Zhao Shucheng has, he cannot stop letting the villagers celebrate the New Year, and he can only wait until after the New Year. However, the villagers who earned money are unwilling to leave the brick kiln idle, so he worked until New Year's Eve and continued to start construction after the second day of the New Year.
In a blink of an eye, Song Yunhui was about to leave home and go back to school. Before leaving, he told his sister to remember to hand over the application for removing the hat.
However, Song Jishan was a little suspicious of this matter and did not believe that such a good thing was happening, so he took advantage of the opportunity to get his glasses and threw the application into the fire.
Song Yunping happily held her glasses, but saw that the application was burned, and she suddenly felt that hope was burned.
Song's mother also asked anxiously: "Oh, what are you doing?"
"I know you are looking forward to the good of the children, but I have lived for most of my life, and the good things I think of in my heart have never come true!"
"Dad, I won't blame you."
"Xiaohui is still young. He doesn't know the danger outside. I keep this thing. I'm afraid that something will cause, so I will burn it clean."
Zhao Shucheng didn't know what happened in the Song family, and he didn't have time to think about what happened between men and women. He started burning bricks after the New Year in the brick kiln. There were a lot of red bricks piled up in the brick factory, but the sales volume could not keep up with the fastest firing.
In order to increase sales, Zhao Shucheng asked Sibao to ride a bicycle and go around several brigades to promote it. Wherever there is a house building, I will go and promote it. Let Sibao help a sign behind the bicycle, which read: The bricks in Xiaolei's family are two cents cheaper than other families. The quality is guaranteed. Welcome to go to Xiaolei's family to order.
Although it is still a seller's market, the Xiao Lei family has only started burning bricks for a while, so they still need to publicize them and let everyone around them know about it first.
However, doing business in this era is indeed a bit simpler. Just this trick caused many people in the brigade to drive tractors and even drive ox carts to Xiaolei's brick kiln to pull bricks. The business of the brick factory suddenly became prosperous and there was no difficulty.
The business of the brick factory is so good that everyone working in the brick factory is very happy, especially when he sees the ten-yuan unity, he is extremely excited. However, after Zhao Shucheng settled the accounts, he was not very happy.
Even if these two brick kilns do not stop working, the gross profit will be only about one thousand yuan after spending all expenses in a month, which is still far from Zhao Shucheng's plan. Moreover, Zhao Shucheng knows very well that in the near future, the brick kilns of Xiao Lei's family will face fierce competition, and the profit will continue to decline.
So Zhao Shucheng knew very clearly that now it is time for him to continue starting a business with the villagers, even if other industries cannot do it, the breeding industry will be put on the agenda. And not only that, Zhao Shucheng is also planning to open a literacy class in the village to let those working in brick kiln factories learn cultural knowledge. After all, brick kiln factories cannot continue to operate. Sooner or later, Xiao Lei's family will transform. Only educated people can keep up with their own footsteps, rather than being able to become cheap labor.
The breeding industry is not that easy to do. Although Zhao Shucheng can be enforced, the people of the Xiao Lei family are not very active. Even no one actively responded to the literacy class that Zhao Shucheng mentioned. Instead, he felt that Zhao Shucheng couldn't bear to see them leisurely. Only the only high school student in the village, Lei Shigen, thought the literacy class was a good thing and was even willing to act as a teacher in the literacy class.
Zhao Shucheng was too lazy to listen to other people's opinions, so he directly asked the workers of the brick kiln factory to study in shifts in the village committee.
Regarding the breeding farm, Zhao Shucheng also held a meeting in the village to gather all the women and comrades to promote the benefits of breeding long-haired rabbits. His mouth was worn out, but only more than twenty families were willing to try it, and they were only willing to breed a few.
Although Zhao Shucheng had expected this, he was a little helpless and didn't know how to seize the opportunity to make a fortune in front of him.
Zhao Shucheng simply stopped begging these people to raise them, so he simply took the bachelors who did not work in the brick kiln in the village to build a large-scale breeding farm in the village to prepare for large-scale breeding. Secondly, Zhao Shucheng was also training the team to let these people master certain construction experience and prepare for the establishment of the construction team of Xiao Lei family in the future.
Of course, because the current brigade headquarters of the Xiaolei family doesn’t have much money, the bricks in the brick kiln are supplied at a cost price, and they have to wait until the farm makes money before they can be paid back.
Although the villagers didn't say anything about this, they all doubted whether the farm could make money or even lose money.
Zhao Shucheng couldn't manage so much. While supervising the construction team's work, he asked Lei Shigen to take some people to the surrounding villages to purchase the rabbits of long-haired rabbits. Of course, the most important thing is that Zhao Shucheng personally went to the professional state-owned chief rabbit breeding farm to select and buy high-quality rabbit species.
In this era, breeding of long-haired rabbits was not very popular. It was not until 1983 that breeding of long-haired rabbits became a rabbit craze. Nowadays, rabbit breeding is just a breeding rabbit, just to eat that little meat.
After the farm was pruned, Zhao Shucheng took some villagers to breed long-haired rabbits. Those who were willing to breed at home also came to the farm to learn skills. After they became proficient, they bought rabbits from the farm and went back to breed them.
Unfortunately, even if a rabbit costs a few dollars, many families can't afford so much money, so at most a family of three or five breeds. Moreover, although most people know that the technical problems have been solved, they are still worried about sales. Although they know that there are purchasing stations in the town and the county, they are worried that they will breed so many at once, but in the end they will not collect them.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhao Shucheng knew that the rabbit hair of long-haired rabbits had no need to worry about sales for a long time. Even if the county no longer acquired it, other cities still need it.
Of course, Zhao Shucheng could not stay in the farm every day, so he directly asked Song Yunping to be a teacher and teach some simple techniques to the employees of the farm and the women in the village.
Song Yunping didn't expect that Zhao Shucheng would do it as soon as he said that he actually built such a large breeding farm in Xiao Lei's house. After looking at it, he suddenly felt that the rabbit nest in his family was nothing.
However, because Zhao Shucheng invited Song Yunping, and Song Yunping was so beautiful, the villagers immediately knew about Zhao Shucheng's relationship with her, and it soon spread to Xiao Lei's house.
Zhao Shucheng still knew from Hongwei that the village was spreading the matter between him and Song Yunping, and knew that it was not a solution to pass on it like this, so after discussing with me, he directly asked the matchmaker to go to the Song family to propose marriage and settle the matter so as not to have any bad rumors.
By February, Zhao Shucheng began to settle wages. In addition to handing over 40% of the profits of this brick factory to the brigade, the remaining money was left in the brigade's account and prepared to do other things.
This time, Zhao Shucheng received the same salary as others, and he worked day by day to get the money. If he didn't stay there for a day, he would deduct the wages for that day. But even so, in a month, he would be less than ten yuan and more than thirty yuan.
Although the money is small, when the salary is really paid, the entire Xiao Lei family caused a sensation. After all, it was the first time that someone in the Xiao Lei family has received so much salary, one dollar a day, which I never dared to think about before.
After all, the Xiao Lei family used to work at seven cents, and at most two work points a day, which is 10 cents and four cents. One dollar is going to catch up with the previous work for more than a week.
However, Zhao Shucheng was a little unfavorable. After all, this seemed to be quite a lot. It was only thirty yuan for a month, and it was not enough for a meal in later generations. However, the villagers didn't think so. The young people who could not work in the brick factory could not sit still and started making a fuss, and they all asked to join the brick factory to work.
However, Zhao Shucheng knew very clearly that there were not many people in the brick factory. Now, sixty people work, and they are working day by day, which means that a few masters can work for thirty days.
So after discussing with the old branch secretary, he forced the opinions of others and prepared to wait for a while before talking.
Although the villagers were noisy, they could only stop and look at the direction of the brick kiln in the face of the joint suppression of the old branch secretary and Zhao Shucheng.
It was soon two months later, and it was time for the first time for the rabbits in the farm to shear their hair. This time, Zhao Shucheng and the old branch secretary came to the scene in person to participate in the purpose of knowing the rabbit hair production and subsequent income as soon as possible.
Because Zhao Shucheng is carrying out large-scale and standardized breeding, the quality of rabbit hair is good and the yield is very high. Most rabbits can cut half a pound of hair.
The rabbit hair of Xiao Lei family can be rated as a special grade rabbit hair, so the price is naturally relatively high, and it can be sold for fifty yuan per catty. Although this is not too much, you can harvest it in three or four months. And as long as you provide some grass and occasionally mix a little bean cake.
The first time the farm paid the salary also shocked the villagers. They thought that Zhao Shucheng was shocked by lard, but now they saw that one farmer earned money, not even worse than those working in brick kilns. Then other people in the village who did not work in brick factories or farms were moved and asked to raise long-haired rabbits.
Zhao Shucheng naturally would not refuse such a situation. Instead, he was very supportive. He could buy rabbits born in the breeding farm and help buy goods at the state-owned breeding farm. Unfortunately, most villagers, because they really don’t have much money in their bags, can only breed two at most, one male and one female, just to save some money, so they breed rabbits by themselves and expand the breeding scale.
Zhao Shucheng had no objection to this, but was happy to do so. After all, the villager who had not really arrived during large-scale breeding had already made money, would naturally find a way to keep up.
Song Yunping has been keeping a communication with her younger brother, so she told him what had happened during this period of time in the letter and also talked about the recent changes in the Xiao Lei family.
Song Yunhui actually always felt that Zhao Shucheng was not worthy of his sister. After all, a big guy with no education, why should he attract his sister? Even if Song Yunping praised Zhao Shucheng in the letter, he was the best and best man in the world, but Song Yunhui still didn't like it.
After all, what Zhao Shucheng has done now is that when he is in college and sees many big scenes, it is just a small fuss. After all, even if the Xiao Lei family makes money, even if he raises long-haired rabbits, what can he do? This is just a small rural collective economy, without any technical content, and poor risk resistance.
Take the brick kiln factory with the best interests of the Xiao Lei family as an example. It has no technical content at all. When other brigades see that the Xiao Lei family brick kiln makes money, they will definitely replicate this model. The final price war is that you sell three points, others sell two points and five points, and you will reduce the price, and the income and expenditure will be unbalanced, and eventually they will go bankrupt or lose money.
The same is true for breeding long-haired rabbits, which are even easier to replicate than brick kilns. After all, building brick kilns requires a considerable cost. On the contrary, long-haired rabbits can be raised by a family. Soon, every household in the entire county may breed long-haired rabbits. At that time, there are more rabbits and more rabbit hairs, and the price will naturally drop.
Because Song Yunhui's major in college was a chemical engineering major, in his mind, only such large enterprises are more competitive and can prevent others from copying. Of course, he has learned a lot with his teachers during this period, and even seen the huge technological gap between China and abroad. He also had an idea in his mind, that is, he must study knowledge hard and strive for the future. He can gain a place in this industry, and even lead a group of people on his behalf to catch up with domestic technology or even surpass foreign countries.
During this period, not only did he study in a dull manner, but also volunteered to go to the university's affiliated primary school to be a counselor with the help of his classmates in the dormitory, so that he could help his family faster.
After knowing that her younger brother had become a teaching teacher, Song Yunping was immediately moved to see what her younger brother said was helpful for getting rid of the hat. After all, although she had already talked about marriage with Zhao Shucheng, she still hoped that she could marry her cleanly instead of carrying a reputation for being bad in the family.
After Song Yunping told Zhao Shucheng about this matter, Zhao Shucheng pondered for a while and said, "Actually I don't care much about these things, but since you said that, I'll go with you. A girl's house will go to this kind of program. Those of them may pretend to behave and not pass it for you."
"Comrade Lei, thank you!"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Why are you so polite to me? We are now an unmarried couple, and your business is mine. Let's do this. I'll wait for you outside your village tomorrow morning, and we ride our bicycles to the commune."
