The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Adili Jiang and others sold 4315 tons of apples to Cao Shujie last year. According to them, this year's apples should be more than 5000 tons, which is much less than Cao Shujie's estimate of 6000 tons.

In the past, when he was just selling apples, this volume was already very high. He even had to worry that these apples might go bad if they could not be sold in a short period of time.

But now the daily consumption of these apples to make preserved fruit is unimaginable. According to their current output, these 5000 tons of apples will not even be able to withstand it for up to three months.

Cao Shujie also expressed his desire to purchase another batch of apples during the dinner.

Adilijiang and the others were a little surprised to hear what Cao Shujie said, but after hearing Cao Shujie introduce the scale of Xuemeng Food Factory, they understood why Cao Shujie needed so many apples.

They have also seen advertisements for Aimeng preserved fruit on TV more than once.

"Mr. Cao, look at this. I'll contact you in a few days. Although they don't plant as much as us, they add up to a lot." Adilijiang said proactively.

Not only him, Aksu, Nalati, and Abdullah also took the initiative to help Cao Shujie introduce apple-growing friends.

In this way, there is no need for Cao Shujie to go look for it.

Cao Shujie picked up the wine glass: "I won't say any more words of thanks. I'd like to propose a toast to everyone."

"Mr. Cao, you're welcome," Tuohiti said.

Xiang Zhengyan and the others were listening, feeling deeply moved by the vast number of friends their boss had made.

It's not that they couldn't understand Adilijiang's accented Mandarin. Because of this, Xiang Zhengyan and the others could feel their sincerity from the words of Adilijiang and others.

Xiang Zhengyan feels that it is really difficult to succeed in doing business as a boss.

I came here just to work. After having lunch at Adilijiang's house, I declined Adilijiang's and the others' suggestion that Cao Shujie and the four of them should take a rest first. Cao Shujie thought of going to see the apples first.

Cao Shujie said so, and Adilijiang and the others didn't show any pretense. They found someone to drive and took a few people who had drank to the cold storage.

The apples of several of them were not put together, but were scattered in different cold storages, which were not close to here.

The place where Adilijiang kept his apples was closest, so they went over to take a look first.

Adilijiang randomly pulled out a basket of apples from the cold storage, put it in the car to warm up naturally, and then drove to several other cold storages.

On the way, after feeling that the apples were no longer so cold, I wiped them clean with the wet wipes on the car and let Cao Shujie and others taste them.

There was a crisp 'click'.

Maybe it's because they were just pulled out of the cold storage, or maybe it's the new apples this year. The apples are very crisp, sweet, and full of juice.

But Xiang Zhengyan felt that this apple was not as delicious as the apples he purchased locally.

He wondered why the boss said that the preserved fruits made from local apples were not as delicious as the preserved fruits made from apples here.

These are two concepts.

Xiang Zhengyan was thinking, could it be that the same formula is not suitable for fruits from two places?
Thinking of this, Xiang Zhengyan thought that he would have a good chat with R&D manager Tang Jingsong about this issue when he returned. At the same time, he also had to pay attention to whether other fruits also had the same problem.

Their future research and development will focus on fine-tuning the taste of fruits from different origins.

The boss can tell the difference, but he doesn't believe that so many customers can't tell the difference.

The main issue is whether customers like it or not. If most customers don't like it, then their company's products will be in crisis.

"We must pay attention to these details in the future." Xiang Zhengyan thought to himself.

Song Baoming and Lian Qijian ate the apple handed over by Adilijiang, and they both thought the apple was delicious.

It's very sweet and has a slightly sour taste, which is pretty good.

After driving for more than 20 minutes, we came to the cold storage where Nalati kept apples. Nalati also pulled out a basket and put it on the car.

They didn't waste any time and continued walking down.

During this process, Song Baoming and Lian Qijian discovered that it took six people to complete a full circle of the cold storage where apples were kept. They were thinking that this place was really big.

It takes an hour's drive, even if you don't run very fast on the road, to run from Caojiazhuang to Pingyuan County.

After this round, it was already past 5 o'clock.

If this point were placed in Qingshi Town, the sky would have started to darken.

But it's still bright here.

Before coming here, they had heard that the nights here were very long, but they had never seen one and could not imagine what it was like.

When I saw it at this time, I felt that I had learned a lot.

China is huge and you should look everywhere.

The idea came to the three of them almost at the same time.

In the evening, Nalati arranged a place to invite them.

Song Baoming and the others followed them for another meal of authentic Xinjiang cuisine.

On this day, they didn't discuss the price.

But everyone knows that apple prices have fluctuated greatly this year, and prices were very cheap in the first few months.

The apples Cao Shujie and the others purchased locally cost more than 4 yuan per kilogram, and the cheapest ones cost more than three yuan per kilogram.

According to published data, the price of apples in Xinjiang has increased slightly compared with the same period in previous years, and the fluctuation is not very large.

Last year, Cao Shujie's package purchase price for them was 6.6 yuan per kilogram. This year, Cao Shujie is not expected to increase the price by [-] cents.

If it is too high, the profit margin of their products will drop a lot.

At this time, Xiang Zhengyan also mentioned this, and at the same time mentioned to his boss Cao Shujie that he would go back to Jing Song to study different formulas.

Cao Shujie agreed in principle to Xiang Zhengyan's proposal.

It's not that Cao Shujie is demanding, but he really noticed the subtle changes in the taste of the two kinds of apple preserves before and after eating them. Even Mengmeng mentioned to him that the current apple preserves taste different from the previous apple preserves.

As for which one is good and which one is bad, Mengmeng can’t tell.

Assuming that local apples taste better than apples here, then the problem can only be with the recipe, or that the apples there are not suitable for making preserved fruits.

If it is the former, the taste can be improved after the formula is changed, and Cao Shujie is also willing to purchase local apples in large quantities.

It's cheap after all.

The difference per kilogram is nearly two yuan. Considering the consumption of Xuemeng Food Factory, this price difference is enough to make up for most of the problems.

But if it's the latter, this matter is really fatal.

Xiang Zhengyan also mentioned another issue. He feels that the price of Xinjiang apples has fluctuated too much this year, and it is very likely that prices will fall significantly in the future.

Regarding this point, Cao Shujie also knows that all products will have price fluctuations, but he cannot stop purchasing because of this possible reason.

When it got dark outside, it was already very late, and Cao Shujie and the others also went to rest.

That evening, Lian Qijian called his father, Lian Xuezhu, and asked for the phone number of the person in charge here.

……

On the morning of the second day, Abdullah drove over to pick up Cao Shujie and the four of them, and they went to have breakfast of baked buns and mutton soup together.

After eating, Abdullah took them to meet Adilijiang and the others.

Let’s talk about the price today. If the difference is not big, we will sign a purchase order.

Abdullah, Adilijiang and the others are now doing business with Xuemeng Food Factory, instead of doing business with Cao Shujie himself before. There are still certain procedures that they must abide by.

On the way, Abdullah asked Cao Shujie about the situation of the deer antlers there.

Speaking of this matter, Cao Shujie also had a lot to say.

He also told Abdullah about the 16 fawns that had just been born in Luyuan.

Abdullah was very interested when he heard that one of the deer had multiple births, and he also expressed that he wanted to take some time to go and have a look.

But he also made a suggestion to Cao Shujie.He hoped that Cao Shujie would raise newly born sika deer separately from previous sika deer in order to avoid the problem of inbreeding in a few years.

Cao Shujie also attaches great importance to this issue. When he first bought a sika deer, Ren Yukun, the owner of Shuanglu Breeding Farm, specifically told him this.

At the same time, Cao Shujie is also planning to introduce excellent male sika deer in two years to improve the quality of breeding the next generation of sika deer.

Hearing that Cao Shujie had been prepared, Abdullah gave him a thumbs up.

He admired Cao Shujie very much, he dared to think and do anything, instead of keeping everything at the level of thinking without the ability to execute.

Cao Shujie also told Abdullah that when the new batch of sika deer grew up, he would leave some of the first two antler strips for Abdullah.

"Thank you so much," Abdullah said.

He knew very well the quality of the velvet antlers from the first crop and the second pole.

It is also clear that although this thing has a market price, you may not be able to buy it if you don’t have connections.

At this time, Song Baoming and the others were listening again.

When they arrived at Adilijiang's house, several other people were already waiting here.

After Cao Shujie and the others got off the bus, several people welcomed them in.

Drinking water, eating raisins, and discussing the price of this batch of apples.

In business discussions, they no longer considered friends at this time, and both parties were seriously arguing over a penny.

Xiang Zhengyan also used his negotiating skills to argue with Adilijiang and the other six people without giving in.

Cao Shujie was now free.

He felt that bringing Xiang Zhengyan here was the wisest decision.

Lian Qijian studied hard beside him. He knew very well that Cao Shujie definitely didn't bring him here to travel here.

On the contrary, if Cao Shujie can still bring him out at this time, he must let him learn and make rapid progress.

Thinking that Cao Shujie had told him that he would be the one to take charge in the future, Lian Qijian also looked forward to that day coming as soon as possible.

This involves a problem. Cao Shujie's guarantee is one thing, but if Lian Qijian's own accumulation and preparation are not sufficient and his morality is not matched, Cao Shujie will not let him harm him in a key position.

"Come on!" Lian Qijian cheered himself up in his heart.

When Lian Qijian was a little distracted, Cao Shujie suddenly decided: "Pack it for 6 yuan, 6 cents and 6 cents. Everyone is looking for good luck."

Cao Shujie said so, and after discussion among the six of them, Adilijiang finally agreed to go with this price.

And the reason why we can get this price this year is mainly because the market price has rebounded dramatically, otherwise it might be even cheaper than now.

For Cao Shujie, the purchase price must be higher, but nothing is perfect.

According to the current market price, he can get 6.66 yuan per kilogram without suffering a loss.

After negotiating the price, Xiang Zhengyan initialed an agreement with Adilijiang and six others in the name of the company's purchasing department.

"Mr. Cao, I have contacted a few friends. Can you talk tomorrow?" Adilijiang said proactively.

Cao Shujie nodded and agreed.

With nothing else to do, Lian Qijian told Cao Shujie what he was thinking.

He thought about going to the land leased by his father's factory.

Cao Shujie frowned and thought for a while and said, "I remember that the person who took over your brother's class was named Zhao..."

Cao Shujie couldn't remember the specific name, but Lian Qijian said smoothly: "Zhao Yonghe."

"Yes, that's the name. I've met him before. Do you have his contact information?" Cao Shujie asked him.

We can't bring Lian Qijian out and lose him again.

Lian Qijian nodded and told Cao Shujie that his father, Lian Xuezhu, had given him Zhao Yonghe's contact information.

"I'll ask Adilijiang and the others to borrow a car and let Master Song drive you there."

In Changji, a place where people were unfamiliar, Cao Shujie was really worried about letting Lian Qijian go there alone.

Who knew that after hearing what Cao Shujie said, Adilijiang immediately arranged for someone to drive Song Baoming and Lian Qijian there.

……

After Song Baoming heard the boss's instructions, he was in a state of dissociation.

He never expected that the little brother he thought he had had such a background.

"Brother Lian, your family really rented 5000 acres of land here?" Song Baoming asked.

Lian Qijian smiled sheepishly and said, "Brother Song, I didn't mean to hide it. It was not rented by our family, but rented by my father's factory."

Song Baoming pouted, the factory belongs to your family. The factory rents 5000 acres of land. What is the difference between what your family rents?
That's 5000 acres, equivalent to the size of Xuemeng Food Factory Phase 2 project.

"My dear!" Song Baoming couldn't imagine that Lian Qijian had such a family background.

He even wondered why his family was so rich, why would he go out to look for a job?

Zhao Yonghe told Lian Qijian a place. Lian Qijian didn't know where it was at all, but the driver who sent them here did.

More than an hour later, Lian Qijian came to the place where Zhao Yonghe said. The two parties met. Zhao Yonghe was very happy and took Lian Qijian to see the land where the cotton had just been harvested.

That place is huge.

Because the cotton harvest had just been finished, it looked empty at first glance.

Zhao Yonghe told Lian Qijian that his cousin Cao Zhen had rented this place before, and the rent was not expensive.

In addition to this area, there is another land of more than 3000 acres, totaling more than 8000 acres.

Song Baoming was confused as he listened to the two chatting.

He still underestimated Lian Qijian in terms of feelings!
More than 8000 acres of land!

Song Baoming couldn't even think about it.

At noon, the two of them had lunch with Zhao Yonghe. It was also at this time that Zhao Yonghe learned that Lian Qijian had gone to work in Xuemeng Food Factory.

Although Zhao Yonghe has been with Xinjiang Changji in the past two years, he is no stranger to Xuemeng Food Factory.

When I called my family, I heard them mention Xuemeng Food Factory several times. They also asked Zhao Yonghe if he wanted to resign and go back to Xuemeng Food Factory to find a job.

After all, it is not a problem for Zhao Yonghe to stay with Xinjiang Changji.

Zhao Yonghe didn't expect that his boss's son worked in Xuemeng Food Factory!

This is a big deal.

"Brother Zhao, thank you for your hard work here in Changji!" Lian Qijian thanked him sincerely.

"When I go back, I will definitely tell my dad about the situation here and also tell me about Brother Zhao's hard work."

After following him for a trip, Lian Qijian truly realized how difficult it was for Zhao Yonghe to help their factory guard this piece of land.

Hearing Lian Qijian express his gratitude to him, Zhao Yonghe felt warm in his heart. He suddenly felt that his efforts in the past two years were worth it.

"It's okay, this is what I should do. Besides, the boss also gave me a very high salary. I wouldn't be able to get such a high salary in my hometown." Zhao Yonghe is very pragmatic.

Lian Qijian was thinking that some things really couldn't be measured with money.

He didn't feel this deeply before, but after experiencing more things, he feels it more and more deeply now.

At this time, he was speechless when he thought about the stupid things he did when he was in school.
