Chapter 8 Project Negotiated
Chapter 8 Project Negotiated
In the evening, the sun sets over the western mountains.
Mom cooked a plate of macaroni: "It's time to eat."
Jiang Miao went to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks.
Dad finished taking a shower and was using the fan while turning on the TV.
I added a bowl of rice for each of my parents.
"A Miao, have you been running around these days, delivering takeout again?" Jiang Dahai picked up a piece of pig's trotter.
"No, I won the lottery a few days ago and went to Yangcheng to collect the money."
Huang Qiuyue's eyes widened: "You won the lottery? How much did you win?"
"More than 10 million." Jiang Miao took a bite of rice.
"May Buddha bless you!" Huang Qiuyue quickly clasped her hands together and prayed.
Although Jiang Miao was helpless, he had no choice but to change the subject because of the stubbornness of the older generation: "I'm setting up a company these days."
"What company?" Jiang Dahai asked quickly.
"We're engaged in aquaculture. The company has been registered and its office is located in the Magong Resort. I asked my brother-in-law to rent more than 80 acres of fish ponds in Shiomachi Village."
"Aquaculture?" Jiang Dahai looked hesitant.
Huang Qiuyue saw her husband's worry, but when she thought about her son having more than 10 million yuan, she was not too worried: "A Miao wants to start a business, let him try it, aquaculture doesn't cost too much money, otherwise it's not a good idea to deliver food all day."
"Dad! Mom! Don't worry. My company still needs management. You should arrange things at home as soon as possible. Stop growing vegetables and come and help me look after the company."
Jiang Dahai was also worried that his son would be cheated of money, so he nodded and said, "I will go to Ma Palace to help you after I finish harvesting this season's vegetables."
"Mom, I found a local woman from Magong to take care of the company's kitchen and sanitation. Can you help me take care of it?"
"Okay, wait until your dad has made arrangements, then I'll go there with him." Huang Qiuyue naturally wanted to help her son.
In fact, the reason why Jiang Miao arranged for the two elders to join the company was, on the one hand, to change their living habits, and on the other hand, to reduce their labor intensity.
If the two elders were allowed to continue farming, the workload would be too intense, and their work and rest schedules would be irregular and their diet would be unhealthy.
If you ask the elderly to change their lifestyle habits directly, they usually won’t take it seriously and may even develop a rebellious mentality.
Therefore, Jiang Miao adopted a roundabout tactic and used the excuse that the company needed help to move his parents out of their hometown.
"Oh, by the way, Dad! Mom! Don't tell anyone that I won the lottery, or else people will get jealous."
Jiang Dahai was naturally aware of the village's customs on this point: "I know."
"Let's eat!" Huang Qiuyue reminded.
The family chatted while eating.
The next day, early in the morning.
Jiang Miao went out again on his electric scooter.
Ten minutes later, we arrived at the breeding farm in Shiomachi Village.
My brother-in-law and three middle-aged local men were repairing the dams of the fish ponds.
He said hello and came to the tin house of the farm.
About half an hour passed.
A Dongfeng pickup truck appeared at the entrance of the farm.
"Brother Yao, this way."
Jiang Yao got out of the car with two middle-aged men with dark skin.
"A Miao, this is Lao Huang. His company is engaged in factory supporting business."
Old Huang is a big and strong man with almost no expression in his small eyes. He took out a business card and handed it over.
Jiang Miao took the business card: "Hello, Mr. Huang."
"Boss Jiang is young and promising. Mr. Huang is only a few years older than him." Old Huang said with a smile.
Jiang Miao did not chat, but pointed to the large vegetable field and said, "Boss Huang, I want to build an indoor eel farm covering an area of about 10 acres."
"Last night, A Yao told me that according to your requirements, let's do this! A Yao will be responsible for the infrastructure construction, and you can negotiate the specific price. I will build the supporting facilities. You need a water circulation system, a water temperature control system, a salinity control system, an industrial refrigeration system, a disinfection system..."
The two discussed each point one by one.
After talking about the various requirements, Lao Huang took out a small notebook and calculated:
"The total cost is 368 million. Forget the fraction, let's just say 360 million! What do you think, Boss Jiang? If you have any questions about this offer, you can also ask other companies to come and take a look. My price is also relatively low in the industry. I will only make or yuan from you."
"Okay, Mr. Huang, please prepare the contract!"
"Great, Boss Jiang, shall we have lunch together?"
"Okay, let's go to Guanhai Villa near Jincheng Bay!" Then, Jiang Miao negotiated the price with his cousin Jiang Yao, and contracted the project to the other party at a price of 50 per acre, with a total price of 500 million.
The price is quite good.
After all, it is a ten-acre one-story steel structure factory building, plus leveling the ground, laying water and electricity, and adding an insulation layer, the average cost is about 750 yuan per square meter.
Jiang Miao didn't care too much about his cousin's need to make money. If the business didn't make money, no matter how good the relationship was, it wouldn't last long.
"Brother Yao, the Ma Palace is easily affected by typhoons, so the quality must be guaranteed. It's best to have a structure facing the sea that won't be too exposed to the wind."
Jiang Yao patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely use all my strength to build you an indestructible factory."
“When can we start work?”
"It can be done tomorrow, but we have to fill the soil first. After all, there are only four acres of vacant land here, and we have to fill the six acres of fish pond. This will take about half a month."
Old Huang also chimed in: "It will take about four months to complete the infrastructure. When the time comes, ask A Yao to contact me a month in advance. I need to order equipment and materials in advance."
"no problem."
After the farm project was agreed upon, Jiang Miao asked Ke Yong to drive over to pick him up, and the group went to have lunch.
In the afternoon, he and Ke Yong returned to the resort restaurant.
In the office on the second floor.
Jiang Miao made a table listing his recent expenses.
Resort restaurant rental: 20 (including 5 deposit, rent 15 per year).
Cost of renovation of resort restaurant: 50.
Eel farm rent: 109200 (1300 yuan per mu per year).
Eel farm foundation engineering: 500 million (10 acres).
Eel farm supporting facilities: 360 million (10 acres).
Patent application agency fee: RMB 8 (including 8 invention patents)
Company registration agency fee: 6000.
Car purchase: 26.
Traveling to Hong Kong and Macau: 8.
Shopping: 4.
A total of 987.52 yuan.
And his previous income situation.
Salary savings from delivery man: 7.3.
Scratch lottery prize: 40.
Haojing Gaming received: 2484 million
The total revenue is 2531.3 million, and the current surplus is 1543.78 million.
Of the remaining money, in addition to 5 million as working capital, there is about 10 million available for use.
He estimated the items that would need to be spent next.
In order to quickly open up the situation, the hundreds of eels in the family and my brother-in-law's fish pond are not enough, so mature eels must be purchased from other farms.
The current bid from eel farms is around 50 yuan per kilogram, and a mature white eel weighs about 1.5 to 2 kilograms.
Currently, there are 74 acres of open-air fish ponds left in the farm, and an average of 800 to 1000 mature white eels can be raised per acre.
Assuming 1000 eels per acre, 74 acres would require 7.4 mature white eels. At a price of 80 yuan per eel, the procurement cost would be 592 million yuan.
The subsequent feed, medicine, etc. also cost a lot of money.
But all this investment is worth it.
Because the average import price of glass eel fry this year is 3.1 yuan per kilogram.
On average, every kilogram of glass eel fry contains about 1 to 1.5 glass eels, or it may contain only a few thousand, because the average weight of a glass eel is around 0.1 grams.
A female eel can produce an average of 1600 eggs, and the survival rate is about 90% in artificial breeding sites.
That is to say, ten female eels can produce about one kilogram of eel fry.
However, after laying eggs, the female eels will die soon. In order to increase economic benefits, Jiang Miao plans to build another small factory and purchase a canning production line to send the eels directly after laying eggs to make canned eels.
A small canning production line, plus the site, would cost about 500,000 or 600,000 yuan.
Fortunately, Magong Town used to be a prosperous fishing port with some small seafood processing factories, so it shouldn't be difficult to buy one now.
