Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 488 Opening business and earning millions in foreign exchange

Regarding the cooperation in building a hotel, the leaders said they would need to discuss it again. This so-called discussion basically means there is no hope.

Sure enough, two days later, news came that the city's finances were tight and they could not come up with funds to build a hotel together.

However, the city welcomes Sheng Xiping to invest and can provide various preferential policies.

The meaning is obvious. People are not optimistic about the hotel project. They are afraid of throwing money into it and not even making a sound.

Sheng Xiping didn't care about this, what's the point? At worst, he is a sole proprietor, and he is not short of money.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the news came from the city, Xu Guoxing led several people from his unit to find Sheng Xiping.

Xu Guoxing said that he believed in Sheng Xiping's vision and courage, and had convinced most of his colleagues in the Finance Bureau that they were willing to cooperate with Sheng Xiping to jointly invest in building a hotel.

The only condition is that after the hotel is completed, the staff should try to use family members of the Finance Bureau.

Today's era is different from that of later generations. Nowadays, the whole country is focused on economic development, and it is not unusual for all enterprises and institutions to have tertiary industries.

Xu Guoxing and others operated from it, and the city also gave many discounts, so the price of this land was very low.

Currently, border trade is not open, and the local transportation conditions are limited. There is no need to travel too far for materials that can be purchased in the surrounding areas. Only those materials that are not available locally need to be transported elsewhere.

After all these were discussed, Xu Guoxing arranged for people to lead Sheng Xiping and others around the city to choose a suitable place.

At present, it is too cold to start construction. Sheng Xiping and Xu Guoxing have agreed that in mid-to-late April, both parties will have funds in place and each will provide some people to take charge of related projects.

Especially in the past few years, the relationship with Mao Zi was tense. At that time, my idea was that even if I temporarily lost some territory, I would be able to live on without too much influence on the rear.

On the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, Sheng Xiping and others left Heihe by car and returned to Bingcheng, where they stayed for a few more days.

"Why are you thanking me? Why don't our brothers say thank you to others? You work hard, and when I retire, I will come to you." Chen Ruiqing laughed.

Fortunately, Sheng Xiping and others have been engaged in trade for several years, and it is easy to transport materials with familiarity.

Other materials are less produced locally and can only be transported from other places.

Even though Heihe is a remote place with an underdeveloped economy and a small urban area, it has all the factories and units that should be there.

After that, Sheng Xiping, accompanied by Director Wang and others, walked around the urban area and surrounding counties and towns to conduct a thorough survey.

At present, there is nothing here. In the future, this place will become a park along the river.

The person in charge of recruitment selected those who met the requirements from those who signed up. Nearly 400 people were selected in the first batch.

If it cooperates with the Finance Bureau, this hotel will be equivalent to the tertiary property of the Finance Bureau. If someone dares to cause trouble in the future, Xu Guoxing and others will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it.

Passing through Changchun on the way back, Sheng Xiping found Chen Ruiqing, and through him he ordered a lot of goods in Ji Province.

Secondly, there are all kinds of non-staple foods, such as canned food, etc. In addition, there are also light industrial products.

Sheng Xiping signed large-volume ordering contracts with several wineries, asking them to produce as much high-concentration liquor as they wanted.

This area is quite big. Sheng Xiping thought that even the warehouse could be arranged here, as it would be convenient for transporting supplies.

Everyone stayed in Heihe for more than ten days and finally settled everything.

After that, Wu Yucheng, Liu Yuhe, Chen Weiguo and others took a plane directly from Bingcheng to Yangcheng.

By the time Sheng Xiping and the others returned to Songjiang River, it was already February 2nd.

Although the land has been obtained, it is currently covered with ice and snow, so construction cannot be started until spring thaws.

In the past few years, Chen Ruiqing gradually got in touch with his former friends. Since Sheng Xiping wanted to do business with Mao Zi, Chen Ruiqing was willing to help.

Wu Yucheng's car was checked back to the capital. Sheng Xiping, Liu Yujiang and others drove all the way back.

In the trade with Maozi, the most popular thing is definitely wine. High-concentration spirits are equivalent to currency in Maozi, absolute hard currency.

Sheng Xiping was afraid that the other party would regret it, so he immediately signed a contract with the relevant city departments and asked Shencheng Company to immediately transfer the money to the city's designated account.

When Chen Ruiqing learned that Sheng Xiping was going to do business with Mao Zi, he also remembered some of his relationships with Mao Zi.

In the future, when the hotel makes money, everyone can receive dividends. In this way, it can also solve the employment problem of some employees' family members.

"A few of my friends also have relatives in the Far East. In this way, I will give you their contact information, and you can contact them and say that he is my brother.

At home, the factory is almost recruiting workers, and people from many surrounding towns and forest farms have come to sign up.

"Oh, thank you so much, brother." Sheng Xiping was very happy when he heard this.

I dare not say whether it is useful or not, but I hope it can be helpful to you. "

Sheng Xiping took a fancy to a place on the riverside, which was very close to the city government and Daheihe Island.

In addition to meeting with Sheng Xi'an, his wife, and the Feng family, Sheng Xiping also contacted several non-staple food factories through the Feng family's connections and signed various canned supply contracts with them.

As for the staff trying to recruit family members of the Finance Bureau, this is not a problem. Anyway, they must be trained before taking up the job, and they can only be used after passing the training.

This is related to the original strategic layout. Even if there is no material exchange between regions, they can still get by.

After some research, I learned that there are several wineries in the surrounding area and the wine they produce is of good quality.

Chen Ruiqing lived in Maozi when he was young, and has been in contact with Maozi since he came back. It was because of this that he was sent to labor reform a few years ago.

Xu Guoxing meant that this cooperation with Sheng Xiping meant that employees of the Finance Bureau would become shareholders.

Immediately, Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng discussed the specific details of the cooperation with Xu Guoxing and others, including how much capital each party would contribute, how much shares they would hold, etc.

Sheng Xiping thought this proposal was okay. In fact, he didn't care how much money the other party invested. He just wanted to find a local backer.

The machines ordered from abroad have been shipped and are expected to arrive in a while.

After recruiting all the workers, they received pre-job training. After that, Sheng Xiping contacted various forestry bureaus to distribute timber here.

As a result, truckloads of logs were continuously delivered from the forestry bureaus in the province and neighboring provinces.

The factory is located near the train station, and a railway line is specially connected to the factory, so the wood from other places can be transported directly into the factory and unloaded.

Logs were continuously transported into the factory, and soon countless piles were piled up in the factory.

These wood will be processed separately according to different tree species, and finally processed into various types of boards, furniture, etc.

At the beginning of April, machines began to arrive one after another. When all machines were installed and debugged, the factory began trial operation. On April 25th, the sixth day of the third lunar month, Huayang Wood Products Comprehensive Processing Factory officially opened.

On the day of the opening, Chen Ruiqing specially brought people here. Leaders from Tonghua and Hunjiang areas, as well as county secretaries and others, also came to congratulate and participate in the opening ribbon-cutting ceremony.

In addition, many forestry bureaus in the province, customers who have dealings with Tengyue Trading Company, and even many foreign merchants also came to participate in the opening ceremony.

On the opening day alone, the processing plant signed supply contracts with domestic and foreign merchants for more than 10,000 cubic meters of blockboards, veneer panels, multi-layer composite boards, solid wood particle boards and other boards.

At the same time, we also signed an order for 20,000 boxes of disposable sanitary chopsticks with Japanese customers.

Not counting domestic orders, the hygienic chopsticks alone can earn US$350,000 in foreign exchange.

Coupled with other orders from abroad, the business earned almost one million US dollars on the first day of business.

Secretary Guan and others who came to attend the opening ceremony were delighted. This time, in addition to ginseng, their county also has other commodities that earn large amounts of foreign exchange.

"Oh, what a pity. It would be great if your factory opened earlier. I will register your factory to participate in the Spring Fair.

Just with these products from your factory, maybe we can sign a lot of orders. "Chen Ruiqing regretted it and said he missed the opportunity.

"Brother, there's no rush. If you can't catch up this year, there's still next year.

The factory has just started operating, and the products are not rich enough. When we develop some new products, it will not be too late to go to the Spring Fair. "

In the short term, Sheng Xiping has no plans to go to the Canton Fair.

At present, the company's products are not high-end enough and are too easy to be imitated. Although it can receive large orders at the Canton Fair, it is easy to attract others' attention.

At the moment, the scale of the factory is still too small. Steady development is the first priority, and the rest will come later.

Sheng Xiping made Zheng Hua the director of the comprehensive processing plant and was fully responsible for all the work of the processing plant. Yu Haitao and Wang Jianye served as deputy directors to assist Zheng Hua in managing the factory.

Yu Haibin led several of his comrades in charge of fire protection, security and other safety work in the factory.

Then, a few young people who were educated, familiar with the production process of the processing plant, and serious and responsible were selected from among the workers and promoted to workshop directors, section leaders, etc., who were specifically responsible for the production work of the relevant workshops and sections.

Private enterprises are naturally different from state-owned enterprises, and management is much stricter.

The factory has strict rules and regulations, and everything is done according to the rules. Anyone who violates the rules will be punished accordingly.

Workers may not be comfortable with it at first, but because of the high wages, they can only endure it. Over time, they will gradually adapt.

While the processing plant is developing steadily, preparations for construction on the Heihe side have also begun at the end of April.

In early April, Sheng Xiping arranged for Wang Dongcheng, Sun Jinggang, Zhang Zhiqiang, and Pan Desheng to go to Heihe.

It happened that together with relatives of Xu Guoxing's family and several family representatives from the Finance Bureau, we established the Longjiang International Hotel Project Department, which was responsible for the construction of hotels and warehouses.

Sheng Xiping told Sun Jinggang and others to give priority to building warehouses.

In two months, the goods they ordered from various places will be shipped to Heihe one after another. If the warehouse is not built, it will be too delayed.

Sun Jinggang and others followed Sheng Xiping's wishes and completed the warehouse covering an area of ​​20,000 to 30,000 square meters in late June without delaying the construction of the hotel.

After the warehouse was built, Sheng Xiping asked Chen Weiguo and Wang Jianshe to select suitable people from relatives of each family to be responsible for transporting and storing various materials to Heihe.

Sheng Xiping has received news from Xu Guoxing. After several rounds of consultations, Heihe and Bu City have decided to open border trade this winter.

So Sheng Xiping asked these people to go to Heihe in advance to prepare, and also asked them to find a way to find a teacher to learn Russian.

You don’t need to be very proficient, just being able to have a simple conversation and knowing the price of buying and selling things is enough.

The days flew by in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, nearly half of July passed.

The students led by Zhou Qinglan were all on vacation after taking the college entrance examination, and the next step was to wait for their results and admission results.

Zhou Qinglan should be teaching high school freshmen again in the fall, so she doesn't need to teach during this holiday, which is quite relaxing.

It just so happened that Zhou Qingyue wanted to marry a wife, and Wang Chunxiu was very busy, so Zhou Qinglan went back to her parents' house every day to help.

Over the years, Zhou Mingyuan and his wife have been living in the bungalow on Baishan Street.

It was rented at first. When public housing was allowed to be bought and sold two years ago, Zhou Mingyuan and his wife paid for it and bought it.

In fact, Sheng Xiping had already mentioned that Zhou Mingyuan and his wife should find a spacious place to build five brick houses, tidy up and stand at attention, and live comfortably.

But Zhou Mingyuan had too many worries and didn't want to be too showy. Besides, they lived quite comfortably in that house and refused to change it no matter what.

Now that their youngest son is getting married, Zhou Mingyuan and his wife are in trouble. Where will the young couple's new house be arranged?

In the end, it was Zhou Qingyang and his wife who suggested that Zhou Qingyue and his wife live in the corner building.

That building was the new house where Zhou Qingyang and his wife got married. Not long after the wedding, Chen Jie followed the army to the army.

The house is vacant, and every year during the Chinese New Year, Zhou Qingyang's family comes back to stay for a few days.

The furniture and everything there are quite new. As long as you simply clean it up, paint the walls, change the curtains, beds, bedding, etc., it can be used as a new house.

Anyway, Zhou Qingyue and his wife have already bought a house in the provincial capital. It is just for getting married. There is no need to make it particularly nice, as long as it is close to each other.

In this way, Wang Chunxiu and Zhou Qinglan, plus a few helpers, cleaned up the corner building.

Everything that needed to be replaced was replaced, and everything that needed to be bought was bought a new one. Once the inside and outside were tidied up, it looked like a new house.

July 25th, the eighth day of the sixth lunar month, was the wedding day of Zhou Qingyue and Han Manxue.

It happened that Han Manxue was on summer vacation, and Zhou Qingyue took leave from his work. The couple came back from the provincial capital five or six days in advance to help the family with various wedding matters.

Zhou and Han are both local, so it is much more convenient to hold a wedding.

Early in the morning on July 25th, the Zhou family's wedding convoy all hung red flowers and red balloons and drove towards the county seat in a mighty manner.

Zhou Mingyuan has been the director for these years, and Zhou Qingyue is the youngest child in the family. This wedding must not be too shabby.

The wedding convoy consisted of more than ten vehicles, headed by Sheng Xiping's car, followed by a group of jeeps. In this day and age, it was quite impressive.

The wedding ceremony and banquet were all held at the Songlin Hotel. Actors from the Bureau's cultural troupe were invited to perform live. Sui Qingrun, chairman of the Bureau's labor union, presided over the wedding.

Leaders from various forestry bureaus, people from provincial offices, and leaders from Zhou Qingyue Factory all came to attend the wedding, and the scene was very lively.
