Zhao Shucheng smiled and shook his head, saying, "Pingping, you can't think so. Xiaohui is a college student. He can come to us, and others can't talk about it."
However, Zhao Shucheng did not continue to argue with Song Yunping, but instead helped the other party to go back and take a break. He told her the good news to her mother, giving her time to help take care of Song Yunping.
Before, Lei's mother and Song Yunping had a big difference because of their living habits and having children. So they separated and since then, Lei's mother didn't come to Zhao Shucheng's house very much. But this time, she heard that Song Yunping was pregnant, she suddenly changed her body, and came to the house to cook with a smile every day to take care of Song Yunping.
Just as the Xiao Lei family was developing smoothly according to Zhao Shucheng's guidance, other places were as peaceful as the Xiao Lei family.
Due to the booming economy in various places, many enterprises have encountered the problem of insufficient working capital in production. Enterprises and units have begun to arrears of payments for goods, and the situation of owing goods after clearing and owing has begun to occur. Many enterprises have begun to fall into a tug-of-war of triangular debts. Many projects have no funds after half of their efforts, or they have fallen into a vicious cycle of difficult to find sales for corporate products or simply no sales at all. Products are backlogged, forming a vicious cycle of input-output, backlog-reinvestment-reinvestment-reinvestment-reinvestment-reinvestment-reinvestment-reinvestment-reinstatement-reinstatement-reinstatement-reinstatement.
Because Zhao Shucheng insisted on paying first and then goods at the beginning, there was no problem of owing others the money. However, the construction team was unable to get the full amount from the beginning. Basically, they signed a contract to give 30% of the contract, 40% during the construction process, and 30% after the acceptance. Therefore, the construction team of the construction team of the Xiao Lei family began to suffer from the owing of the final amount, because they were basically all major factories or units, and it was difficult to come to the door to force debts at the beginning, but now they found that the gap was getting bigger and bigger.
In fact, at the beginning, Zhao Shucheng stipulated that no matter whether it was a brick and tile factory, or even a construction team, or a purchase station, the villagers had to pay first and then goods. After all, there were many customers during this period, because of the regulations of Xiao Lei family, they turned to cooperate with other companies and did not cooperate with Xiao Lei family.
But now that many companies have begun to arrears of payment for goods, they can't help but be glad that they did as Zhao Shucheng said, otherwise it would be a pity that they would not be able to collect so much money.
Especially Lao Wu, who is now leading the construction team, is constantly afraid. You should know that at the beginning of the year, the city's power wire factory wanted to build a dormitory. At that time, Xiao Lei's family was found and asked to build it first and then pay. In order to get the Xiao Lei's family to start construction as soon as possible, they even offered a price of 30% higher than other projects.
He almost agreed at that time, but because of the rules set by Zhao Shucheng, the first payment was not found, so the villagers would not start work at all.
Originally, he thought that he would ask the construction team to advance part of the funds, and then waited for the wire factory to pay for it before making up for it, but he did not expect that the accountant who was in charge of the accounting disagreed. He also thought that the brick and tile factory and the prefabricated board factory should provide some bricks and tile first, so that they could start construction first, but they were also rejected.
The reason is the same as the accountant said, and they don’t provide prefabricated bricks and tiles without money. They suddenly fell into a vicious cycle and could only watch the wire factory cooperate with other construction teams.
But now he could only feel lucky because when he chatted with the foreman of the construction team who built dormitories for the wire factory, he realized that the wire factory had never paid any money and had been owed for several months now.
When Lao Wu returned to the village to talk about this, Zhao Shucheng looked at Lao Wu and said, "Lao Wu, how much debt is for your construction team for now hasn't returned?"
Lao Wu looked at the other people in the village and said, "There are only two projects with a final payment, but because they are both public institutions, they should be able to get the payment before the New Year."
Zhao Shucheng nodded and said thoughtfully: "Now it seems that many companies are facing the problem of insufficient funds. Either the companies themselves are poorly managed or they owe too much money outside, which makes them lose money themselves."
Lei Shigen also said, "Yes, not only our county enterprises, but also many other enterprises in other places have this situation. The old monk told me two days ago that the wool mill in the Magic City asked for a period of delay in payment of the goods, but I did not agree."
"It is right not to agree. Now many companies are facing the problem of triangle debt. Our funds are in good condition now, but we cannot be careless about this." Zhao Shucheng continued thoughtfully:
"In this way, because of the current shortage of funds, brick and tile factories and prefabricated panel factories still follow the previous strategy, pay first and then goods, and it is not enough to be a penny. They cannot even pay in batches, and they must be paid in one lump sum."
Lei Shigen nodded and agreed to Sibao. Zhao Shucheng looked at Lao Wu and said:
"Lao Wu, your construction team also needs to change. The project cost and profit are basically half and half. So in order to avoid the situation where the construction unit does not have a final payment after half of the construction starts, from now on, you require half of the construction funds before starting construction. After half of the construction, ask the other party to pay another 20%, and then 30% after the construction is completed."
Lao Wu asked with some concern: "What if the other party can't get another 50%? Should we continue to build it for them, or..."
Zhao Shucheng hesitated for a moment when he heard this, looked at the old branch secretary, and said, "Uncle, what do you think?"
The old branch secretary took a puff of cigarette and said, "Dongbao, since we can recover the cost by fifty percent, we might as well complete the project and not let someone poke our backbone. As for the remaining final payment, we can wait a moment. If the other party doesn't take the initiative to give it, we will ask the villagers to ask for it. Do you think it's okay?"
Zhao Shucheng hesitated for a moment. In fact, according to Zhao Shucheng's idea, it was to stop work directly since he didn't pay. However, thinking that prices and labor were both cheap in this era, if the other party asked the Xiao Lei family to complete the project a few years later, it might lose money.
So he gritted his teeth and said, "Just do what my uncle said, we will start construction with half of the project payment, and we will not even think about starting construction if we lose a cent. In addition, you can re-define the contract with the construction party and explain the payment time and the latest repayment time clearly. If the other party cannot make payment on time, we will ask the other party to pay interest according to the current bank interest."
Lao Wu looked at the others in a little embarrassed manner, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
Zhao Shucheng smiled with satisfaction and said, "Lao Wu, don't be embarrassed. We are not farmers now, but an enterprise, and we have to do business. Although human relationships are important, the interests of the Xiao Lei family are even more important."
As he said that, Zhao Shucheng looked at the old branch secretary and said, "Uncle, there is another thing to bother you. We can't really ignore the debts outside. I think so. It's not easy for Lao Bao to do some good things, but it's still okay to be a crooked way. So he asked him to take the elderly in the village to go to the companies that owe debts when they are idle. If they don't give it, they will be left at their door and don't leave. If they still have shame, they can't give money to a few elderly people. If they are really shameless, they won't give money. If there is any problem with the elderly in the village, we will have a reasonable way to settle the score with them."
"But you also know the relationship between the old monk and the villagers, so you have to be old when you mobilize those old men and uncles."
The old branch secretary said, "Dongbao, otherwise I will take them there, Laozicao..."
Zhao Shucheng waved his hand and said, "Uncle, you are still the brigade secretary of our Xiaolei family. What do you think of when you take the old people to ask for the accounts? And if they are angry, you can't help but turn against them. But the old monkey has no such airs. Instead, he turns against them and can even find out the situation of the other party."
The old branch secretary hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Of course, Zhao Shucheng also made it clear to the old monkey. If he could really bring the elderly in the village to get the debt back, the village would give these elderly people a commission of 10% and share the money evenly. Although the share is not high, it cannot withstand the project payment number, so it is still a considerable amount of money.
The old monkey had long been jealous of the big numbers in the Rabbit Fur Purchase Station. Now he has the opportunity to get some money. Maybe his own Purchase Station can be opened, so he naturally agreed very happily.
After everyone else was busy, Zhao Shucheng began to think about what to do in the future of the Xiao Lei family. Because Zhao Shucheng knew very well that although his measures ensured that the Xiao Lei family's company would not suffer losses, many companies would subconsciously not want to choose the Xiao Lei family. Therefore, in the future, whether it is a brick factory, a prefabricated board factory or a construction team, there would be a lot of orders.
Brick and tile factories and prefabricated panel factories can still be maintained with small orders, but if the construction team does not have a project, they will face losses.
Therefore, Zhao Shucheng needs to find a new way out for the Xiao Lei family, on the one hand, find suitable projects for the construction team, and on the other hand, develop new industries. When the construction team cannot find projects, these people can have a place to work, instead of just being idle.
In fact, Zhao Shucheng had thought of repeating the development path of Minning Town in the past world of mountains and seas, so that villagers could make money by raising mushrooms. But soon Zhao Shucheng gave up this idea, because people in this era rarely ate mushrooms and were reluctant to spend so much money to buy mushrooms. Not to mention that if they grow mushrooms, the yield would be very large. Under transportation conditions like Xiao Lei's family, the transportation conditions would be poor, and they would suffer serious losses.
After thinking about it, Zhao Shucheng quickly set his sights on several barren mountains near Xiao Lei's house.
In the past, the villagers went up the mountain to chop firewood because they kept heating and cooking in winter. Now there are basically no big trees on the mountain, only scattered saplings, shrubs and weeds.
Since the village started raising long-haired rabbits, the weeds have been harvested almost the same, that is, the shrubs and saplings are still tenaciously erecting on the mountain.
Zhao Shucheng felt that it was a pity that these mountains were abandoned like this. Although it was impossible to flatten the farming land like the arable land in the village, it was not impossible to develop other industries.
Now people's lives are getting better and better, and they are gradually pursuing their appetites. In the past, even if they had enough food, they still had to eat well after eating. Eating meat is nothing, and eating fruits has become popular.
Zhao Shucheng's idea was to use these barren mountains and plant some fruit trees. Although it took several years to blossom and bear fruit, it also took a lot of time and a lot of labor.
When there is no project on the construction team, you can come here to work, and you can sell the harvest to subsidize the village in the future. Even villagers can eat free fruits.
Of course, Zhao Shucheng has another idea. At the right time in the future, Zhao Shucheng will build a canning factory in the village. The fruits produced by these fruit trees are the first batch of raw materials for Xiao Leijia Canning Factory.
Although you cannot sell canned mushrooms, canned fruits also have good sales, not to mention that Zhao Shucheng also hopes to take a ride-hailing trip that can enable the village to shift from light industry to the technology industry.
Of course, Zhao Shucheng would not say these plans first, but just an excuse that the barren mountains were not good-looking, so he asked the old branch secretary to take the villagers to plant trees. In the future, the villagers would also have fruits to eat, so they could even sell them for money.
The old branch secretary didn't expect that Zhao Shucheng would start planting fruit trees instead of opening a factory, and he suddenly became a little strange. However, he thought that this was good. The Xiao Lei family was originally a farmer, and farming was their duty.
Although Xiao Lei's company has made money now, it makes him feel a little uneasy. On the contrary, this kind of thing makes him feel very at ease.
So Zhao Shucheng didn't need to make arrangements. The old branch secretary took the old man who was fine in the village and the women to dig holes on the mountain and prepare to plant fruit trees the next day.
Zhao Shucheng asked Sibao to take charge of the acquisition station, and he went to the agricultural technology station with Lei Shigen to consult about what fruit trees are suitable for near Xiao Lei's home and purchase saplings.
Soon the nearby villages learned about the actions of the Xiao Lei family. After seeing that the Xiao Lei family did not open a factory, they started planting fruit trees, they were all ready to learn.
Because they knew very well that the Xiao Lei family was developing so well, it would be fine to follow them. Although the village had lost some money at the beginning, it was now profitable. Even if it was not as good as the Xiao Lei family, at least the strong laborers in the village had money to get, and their lives were much better than before.
The long-haired rabbits that later made money also made money, and they are even the main source of income for many families. That is, the bamboo weaving factory and wool spinning factory have no channels or funds, so they cannot learn, otherwise they will definitely learn too.
Now the Xiao Lei family has started planting fruit trees. Although they don’t know what the Xiao Lei family is going to do, these simple people know that they will never suffer any loss when they follow.
