Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 774, leaving
Yang Xiaole returned to the military region and continued his work step by step.

On Sundays, he would take a day off and come back for the day, returning before lights out at 9:30 p.m.

Half a month passed before his appointment notice arrived.

He was also given a commendation meeting and an appointment ceremony, and Group 3 was handed over by Yang Xiaole to Liu Peng as the temporary team leader, who would be promoted to a full-time position when the time is right.

The premise is not to make big mistakes.

"Comrade Wei Hong, you are a veteran in the department. When the time comes, you can help Comrade Yang Xiaoer get familiar with the work."

Feng Mingjie looked at the two people sitting there and said with a smile.

Wei Hongze smiled and said, "Great! With him here, I can relax a little."

Yang Xiaole smiled when he heard this: "Comrade Wei is an old revolutionary. I will also learn more from him. However, I may have to go out for a while."

In fact, in a formal section-level department, there are at least five or six deputy section chiefs.

There are many other related department-level offices.

But the nature of their work is special, and there aren’t that many people just trying to do their job well.

Feng Mingjie held a brief meeting and then the two left.

At this time, Yang Xiaole also moved to a small independent office.

The place is not very big, only about ten square meters, and apart from a set of office desks and chairs, there are some filing cabinets.

For the next half month, Yang Xiaole stayed there to familiarize himself with the work in the department.

He originally thought that the deputy section chief might not have that much work to do.

But after getting started, I found that there are really a lot of things to do.

Of course, he can delegate many things to his subordinates, but they still need to go through his hands.

In fact, he felt that the previous rule that required a certain amount of time to advance was necessary.

It’s just like studying, after finishing elementary school, you go to junior high school.

He shook his head and didn't think too much about it.

For half a month he was learning how to handle matters in the department.

As October approached, the visit from the Japanese was about to end.

That day, Yang Xiaole arranged his work and followed the Japanese plane directly back to Tokyo.

……

I arrived in Tokyo again and boarded a plane directly to Osaka.

There's no way. I've been gone for more than two months. It's impossible for me to not be worried.

The first person to go see it was naturally Zhang Xuesong.

At this time, the other party was handling work matters in a room.

Yang Xiaole wanted to laugh when he saw it.

He felt like laughing to see a gangster boss handling various documents here.

But he can understand it.

A community that truly grows big and strong is actually not much different from a company.

There are a lot of business matters to take care of.

After making sure that Zhang Xuesong was fine, he quietly left and went to the farm.

At this time, a factory building was under construction next to the farm, and the construction team inside was busy.

This is a single-story cement factory building with a large area.

Before leaving, work on modernizing the farm was already underway.

Xu Jinbu will not be without connections. The Japanese have many professional aquaculture farms, so it shouldn't be a big problem to learn some experience.

If there are any problems, please make modifications later.

At this time, Xu Jinbu was looking at a plate of fish.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole quietly appeared nearby and drove the car directly into the farm.

"Sir, who are you looking for?"

The guard at the gate must be new and I don’t know him.

"Kitagawa Kenichi! I'm looking for Kato-kun!"

Upon seeing this, the other party hurried over to pick up the phone and made a call.

After a while, the other party bent down and gestured: "Kitagawa-kun, please come in!"

Then open the door.

Yang Xiaole drove straight in.

The car stopped at the door of the house and Xu Jinbu was already there.

There was little communication between the two.

After entering the room, Xu Jinbu asked, "When did you come back? Why did you take so long? Did anything happen?"

Yang Xiaole handed him a cigarette and smiled: "I just arrived today! What could happen to me? How are you doing recently?"

Xu Jinbu took the cigarette and nodded with a smile.

"I'm fine here. After you left, Yoshikawa Ryoko took me to the Agricultural University and asked the people there to help us design the farm plan. They knew we could raise live eels in a fully ecological way and wanted me to be featured in a magazine. The Japanese Fisheries Society also invited us to join. I didn't dare to agree."

Yang Xiaole heard this and thought about it.

Eels cannot be farmed in a fully ecological manner in Japan, but they have done it.

This is a big deal for Japan's fishery industry.

Under normal circumstances, they will be published in magazines. As for the Japan Society of Fisheries Science, it is a place for academic exchanges related to fishery science to promote the development of fishery science research.

It's still quite important.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, but you don't have to show up. Send it in the name of the company. This is also a very important publicity for us. As for the breeding method, of course, I will refuse to answer by saying it is a confidential formula!"

Xu Jinbu thought about it and agreed: "Okay, I'll respond to them when the time comes."

Yang Xiaole hummed, looked at the things on the table and smiled: "What's wrong? Do you like salmon now?"

This stuff actually tastes good if you eat less.

In Japan, salmon, tuna, and Japanese eel are the best-selling and highest-priced fish.

Among them, salmon is the most expensive.

The main reason is naturally because of its scarcity.

Japan also produces salmon, mainly concentrated in the waters north of Hokkaido.

However, because the sea water temperature is too high, the salmon here have many parasites and most of them are not suitable for eating raw.

Only the kind that goes to the distant Bering Strait can be eaten raw.

However, the distance is too far, the risk is too great, and the cost of ocean operations is very high.

Raw fish costs about ten dollars per pound.

This is equivalent to a day's salary here.

While thinking, I heard Xu Jinbu said with a smile: "Xiao Le, do you think we can raise this thing? In fact, after you left, I did an experiment myself, and I found that the nutrient solution you gave can feed any fish! If we can feed this thing, that would be great."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows.

"Not bad! You've learned to draw inferences from one example! There's no rush for this matter. We'll consider it after the farm is fully developed!"

He remembered that when he was involved in self-media, he liked to read all kinds of random stuff.

He remembered that artificial salmon farming first began in Norway in the 1970s.

Exports to Japan began in the 1980s.

With advanced breeding technology and the advantage of being parasite-free, Norwegian salmon has quickly occupied the Japanese market and dominates Japan's imports.

Then he asked, "When do you think the first phase of the farm will be completed?"

“It’ll probably be by the end of the year.”

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly when he heard this.

The construction of the breeding farm this time is not as simple as building a cement pond.

If it is just a one-story factory building and a few shallow cement pools, it can be completed in two or three months.

The investment in this farm is quite huge.

Each breeding pond inside is composed of a circular pool nearly ten meters high.

It involves a water circulation system and a water cooling system.

This is only the first phase and the area is much smaller than the current one, but it is expected to be able to raise more than one million eels.

This was also his plan.

After all, it is impossible for the Japanese to keep using well water cheaply in the future. We still need to truly realize fully ecological artificial breeding.

By then, we can simulate the water temperature and cultivate other aquatic products, such as expensive salmon.

In the future, aquatic product processing will also be put on the agenda.

Xu Jinbu is still more concerned about the situation in the mainland, after all, her sister is still in the Northeast!
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole gave a brief account of the situation: "The situation in the north is pretty good. There are quite a few minor frictions, but there are almost no large-scale conflicts, and there are very few casualties."

Since Lao Ni's visit, the Russian bear has been much quieter.

There is no way, he must be afraid. Even though the Russian bear is so powerful now that Da Piaolang is very afraid, he doesn't even dare to confront him head-on.

I won't take action unless I'm absolutely sure.

Xu Jinbu was relieved to hear that everything was peaceful over there.

Yang Xiaole asked about the general situation again.

After making sure that there was no problem for the time being, he said, "Okay, then you can develop it this way for the time being. I will come here often in the future. The company's development in the future will not only be limited to breeding, but also have many side businesses, such as the production of canned seafood and pre-prepared meals. Pre-prepared meals are meals that are cooked and only need to be slightly heated up..."

These canned foods and pre-prepared meals will be of great use to him in the future.

Before the collapse of the Soviet Union, food, clothing and daily necessities were all very scarce.

At that time, he will need a company to produce these things for him instead of purchasing them everywhere when the time comes.

It can also generate revenue for the company.

Hearing his words, Xu Jinbu was thinking there.

Then he nodded gently: "Okay, I went to other seafood companies to inquire about their business before, and I can just copy it when the time comes!"

Yang Xiaole choked when he heard this.

Then he nodded: "Yes, you can understand it that way. If there is anything missing, I will tell you. Then I will write a plan for you!"

"Planning book?"

"Yes, how can you run a business without a plan? I just made a rough plan, and it may be changed according to the situation during implementation."

"Okay, I don't understand either, just teach me when the time comes."

"Don't just let me teach you! You have to think for yourself too."

Yang Xiaole looked at him unhappily, Datou was actually not stupid.

The main reason is that I have never been involved in business matters, and I am unfamiliar with the place, so I don’t understand.

Another reason is that dependence has been developed.

All the habits were given by him.

Xu Jinbu scratched his head and said, "Okay then! I'll think about it later."

Yang Xiaole nodded gently: "Okay, you don't have anything to do here for the time being, so don't go on the mission lightly. I will take you out when the time comes. Now your task is to run the company well."

He looked around and said, "Okay, you go ahead and do your work. I don't have anything to do for now, so I'll leave first."

The most dangerous one is Zhang Xuesong. If there is no problem over there, he can leave.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jinbu agreed and sent him out.

Yang Xiaole drove away and then went to the Japanese restaurant.

However, he didn't find her in the Japanese restaurant, but found Yoshikawa Ryoko in the rented office building.

At this time, the other party was looking at documents in the office.

When Ryoko heard that someone named "Kitagawa Kenichi" was looking for her, she stood up and walked outside.

Arriving at the company lobby, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Kitagawa-kun! I'm so sorry, the front desk doesn't recognize you."

Yang Xiaole nodded indifferently: "It's okay! Let's go in first!"

Then he took the lead and rushed to the office.

After arriving at the office, Yang Xiaole sat in the boss chair and turned around.

Only then did he look at Yoshikawa Ryoko who was standing respectfully in front of him.

"What's going on with the company recently?"

One month after the first store opened, the remaining five stores were eagerly opened.

It has been five months since these five stores were selected and opened for business.

Yoshikawa Ryoko said directly: "The previous six stores are now operating stably, and as our signature eel business is very popular and tastes good, now after deducting all costs, the net profit of each store can be maintained at around 4500 US dollars, and the first store even reached US dollars.

In addition, as you said before, half of the turnover will be kept for reserve, and the rest will be used to purchase the property for the store.

We have rented 10 stores in the two central business districts of Tokyo and Nagoya, and most of them will open at the end of the month.

The head office has also started to become more complete, and is now responsible for training both chefs and waiters.

......"

Yang Xiaole listened to the other party's story and nodded slightly from time to time.

I was estimating in my mind.

To be honest, this business is really profitable.

There is a reason for this.

The sauces are signature sauces that he found in several major cities, and they are all time-tested.

Another one is eel. After all, eel has come into contact with well water. When it is put into the water tank for temporary breeding again, other aquatic products will come into contact with well water.

Even if the content is very small.

Not to mention other things, at least as for the eel rice, everyone who has eaten it will praise it highly.

Eel is eaten by almost everyone in Japan.

For experienced foodies, the taste can still be distinguished.

Otherwise, the first store would not have such a high turnover.

They are all cheating. If you can still lose money, it would be really unfair.

Yang Xiaole was thinking after hearing this: "What about transportation?"

Nagoya and Tokyo are the other two major business districts.

The nearest city, Nagoya, is 170 kilometers away, and Tokyo is 500 kilometers away.

Raw materials are a problem.

If it is not transported, it may not survive for long relying solely on special sauces and good soy sauce.

Fortunately, the railways on the Japanese side are very developed.

Shipping price shouldn't be expensive either.

Yoshikawa Ryoko heard this and said, "You asked me to do an experiment before. We packed a newly opened store and transported it by train, and it survived.

A contract has already been signed with them.

The price is 5 yen per ton per kilometer, and the daily cost in Nagoya is $36. And $102. "

Yang Xiaole hummed when he heard that.

Not too expensive!
But it's not cheap either.

After all, you can buy a Japanese sedan here for $3000.

He couldn't understand it at this time.

Why could joint venture cars be sold for hundreds of thousands of yuan back then? According to the exchange rate of around 4% in the s, that would be tens of thousands of dollars.

You know, this is produced in the mainland.

He seemed to have read an article that said that when the price was set, the foreign capital set it too low, but it was rejected by its own people.

He wasn't sure whether it was true or not.

He shook his head and didn't think about it.

Then he said, "Okay, let's do it temporarily. After the stores in the future are stable, don't expand for the time being. Wait for my notification for details!"

With so many shops, the amount of eels consumed every day is huge.

If there are more, the farm will not be able to supply so much for the time being.

And the cost of rail transportation is too high.

We will definitely open new farms in other places in the future.

Seeing that there was nothing to do here, he left the office.

After I came out, I was thinking about one thing in my mind.

There are some things he needs to arrange in advance.

When the Soviet Union collapses, there will be a large loss of talent.

Not to mention too much, Soros alone has poached hundreds of scientists and 14 senior engineers from the Russian side.

Those who can be called senior engineers are not ordinary people, they are people who have received higher education.

Not to mention scientists.

It is a problem to accommodate so many people.

He can transport the information himself, but how to transport the talents is a big problem.

What he wanted was not a bowl of soup, but a big portion of meat.

Back then, Soros had the support of a certain government, so the recruitment of talents was smooth.

He just can't do it.

Even in the mainland, they would only accept them secretly and would not openly accept so many people.

The Science and Technology City can’t accommodate so many people.
