My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 378 Great Expansion

After more than three months, when she came to the new factory again, Xu Ma felt that the place had changed a lot, and it was no longer desolate and dilapidated.

The young security guard guarding the gate saw a group of people approaching, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask:
"What are you doing?"

Mama Xu didn't make things difficult for the little security guard, she just took off the work card around her neck and handed it over.

The young security guard looked at the photo on his work card, and immediately recalled the information of the company's leaders, especially the photo of the big boss. If it wasn't for Mama Xu sitting in a wheelchair, he would have recognized it immediately.

The other party quickly saluted Mama Xu:

"Mr. Zhang, hello!"

Xu Dong took the work permit for his mother, and then hung it around his mother's neck again. A work permit is essential for entering and leaving the factory.

"Is Director Xu in the factory?" Mother Xu asked.

In the past two months, Dad Xu spent most of his time and energy on the new factory, and sometimes he even slept in the factory because he worked overtime too late.

"Dong Xu didn't come today."

"Go ahead!"

Xu Ma dismissed the little security guard with a wave of her hand, then took out her mobile phone and called her wife.

It turned out that Dad Xu went to the city for a meeting. Mayor He invited him, so he probably won't come back in the morning.

"Okay, come back early for lunch."

After hanging up the phone, a group of people began to enter the factory. The entire factory area is very large. After hearing the news, Yu Maolin, the person in charge of the new factory, directly drove a tour bus over.

"Mr. Zhang, welcome, who are these?"

Xu's mother pointed to her youngest son and introduced: "This is the third child in our family, Xu Dong, Dongfang's Dong, and he came here for the first time today. Dongzi, this is Mr. Yu, the general manager of the new factory."

"Mr. Yu, hello!"

"Section Chief Xu, I've heard Dong Xu mention you a long time ago, but I didn't expect to meet you today."

As an experienced senior manager, Yu Maolin had already investigated the family background of the big boss's family thoroughly.

The person in front of him, as expected, will definitely be Xu Dong's successor in the future, and he cannot be neglected no matter what.

"You're welcome, just call me Xiao Xu."

"No, no, the difference between the two of us is at most ten years. Why don't we be friends of the same generation? I will call you Lao Xu, and you can also call me Lao Yu."

"Okay then, Lao Yu." Xu Dong was kind.

Yu Maolin nodded with a smile.

Xu Ma pointed to Niu Qian and introduced them: "These two are children of my friend's family. They will come to our company to work in a few days. This time, they mainly want to visit the factory."

"Mr. Yu, hello! My name is Niu Qian, and this is my girlfriend Su Tong. Please take care of me in the future."

Although Niu Qian is an honest man, he is not stupid. He did not use Xu's mother's identity to "fake the tiger's power".

"Welcome both of you to join the company. Let me tell you the truth, our factory's benefits are among the best. I believe you will not regret it in the future."

Yu Maolin encouraged.

"Thank you!"

Su Tong quickly expressed his thanks, today's trip was really worth it.

Yu Maolin waved his hand, then looked at Madam Xu and asked, "Mr. Zhang, shall we walk there or take a car?"

"Let's take a car, my legs are almost good, I can take a car."

After all, Mama Xu only had a broken calf.

Xu Dong helped his mother into the car, and the wheelchair was folded and placed behind the car.

"Mr. Zhang, where shall we go first?"

"Let's go to the production workshop first. I heard that you can produce more than 80 loaves of bread every day. I want to see the production process." Xu Ma replied.

"Go to Workshop No. [-]."

Yu Maolin quickly ordered the driver to drive.

Xu Dong took the opportunity to interject, "Old Yu, how many production lines are there in the factory now?"

"Currently, four have been built, and 26 are under construction." Yu Maolin replied.

"Why do you build so many at once?"

Xu Dong frowned, disorderly expansion is a big taboo, Dad has learned a lesson before, it shouldn't be!
"No way, in May, the city suddenly issued a death order."

Yu Maolin explained with a wry smile:

"By the end of this year, the new factory must reach a production scale of 2 billion bars per year, which means about 6 million bars per day on average."

Su Tong on the side was stunned when he heard the number.

2 billion bars?

What kind of concept is this? On average, for all the residents of the capital, each person can get about twenty, which is almost equivalent to half a month's ration.

"How did you solve the money problem?"

"What else can I do? I can only get a bank loan. This time, it is also guaranteed by the city. I have borrowed a total of [-] billion yuan. Fortunately, the loan interest rate is relatively low, only [-]%."

"On an annual basis?"

Yu Maolin nodded. If the inflation rate is included, this loan is almost no different from an interest-free loan, and there is even some profit.

The only limitation is earmarking.

If he invests this money in other industries, such as going to the high seas for deep-sea aquaculture, he is sure that he can recover all the investment within two years.

"Have you calculated how many years it will take to pay off the loan?" Xu Dong asked.

"It will take at least five years."

"How did it take so long? Isn't there a bread processing fee? According to your production capacity, you can collect two billion yuan a year. Even after deducting all costs, it should be no problem to pay off the loan in two or three years, right?"

Xu Dong was puzzled.

Xu's mother also looked suspicious.

Yu Maolin quickly explained:

"Mr. Zhang, Lao Xu, you can't settle accounts like this.

Among the company's customers, members accounted for at least one-third, and this one not only did not make money, but even paid for it.

Based on a comprehensive calculation, the annual revenue is about 1 billion yuan, and if the operating costs are counted, there can be a net profit of [-] to [-] million yuan, which is not bad. "

"Why are the operating costs so high?"

"Old Xu, listen to my analysis. The new factory is expected to recruit 300 employees. The salary alone will require [-] million yuan a year, plus water and electricity..."

"Wait, that's not right!" Xu Dong shook his head, "Even if there are thirty production lines, we won't need so many employees, right?"

Yu Maolin nodded: "It's true that there are not so many people on the production line. Three to 40 people are enough for each line. The extra people are from the logistics department."

"What do you mean, we are also responsible for door-to-door delivery?"

"The city plans to add bread to the purchase list of the grain store. We have to deliver it to the door, and we also need to set up an escort department to prevent accidents."

With the increasing shortage of rations, these trucks responsible for transporting bread will definitely become the targets of those who want to, and some necessary protective measures are essential.

In addition, the unemployment rate in the capital area has remained high, and the city has already taken half of the employment quota, waiting for the production line to be fully completed.

In short, the 2 billion loan is not for nothing.

Xu Dong couldn't help but sighed, there will be no pie in the sky, there will be gains and losses, let's say five years, as long as the loan can be paid off.

In the next few years, life will be very difficult. I believe no one would dare to mess around at this time.

This is no less than self-destructing the Great Wall!
