Chapter 156 The Town of San Beni 【Please subscribe, please subscribe】

Chen Mo's parents are restless people.

When I arrived at the ranch, the first thing I thought about was to open up a vegetable garden...

Chen Mo is planting vegetables in the field, tomatoes and cucumbers can be eaten, and there are many other vegetables, the total area is less than two acres.

It took Chen's father a day to open up three acres of land near the reservoir, and asked Chen Chen to buy vegetables from the Internet to plant...

On the third day after arriving at the ranch, Mother Chen heard that the ranch had close to a hundred employees, and these employees had to go to cities dozens of kilometers away to buy vegetables and fruits, so she asked Father Chen to drive a tractor to drive the ranch close to the reservoir. The land has been opened up, almost 35 acres, or 6 acres.And the melons, fruits and vegetables that can't be eaten at home, together with the early-ripening Jiabao fruit in the small valley, are sold in the small town of San Beni...

The small town area of ​​San Beni is just a gas station and a small shop, at the confluence of the Dry Valley and the Morro Valley.

The Moro Valley is very large, much larger than the Terai Valley.The valley pasture breeding base only occupies the middle and lower reaches of the Moro Valley.There are other pastures in the middle and upper reaches, and there is also a large holiday farm... Although it is a farm, it does not produce vegetables, it is a pasture and an orchard...

Recently, there are many houses under construction here, about a dozen.These houses under construction are the houses of the first employees of River Valley Ranch...

The small shop has only recently completed renovations and expanded a bit.

The owner of the small shop was a little curious when he saw Mother Chen and Chen Xiao, so he came over to have a look...

Everyone around knows that the owner of the River Valley Ranch is a Chinese.The owner of the small shop saw Chen Xiao before, but didn't know her name and identity. Then he looked at Mother Chen, and forced out two words: "Ni is good."

"Hello..." Mother Chen smiled: "Do you want to buy vegetables? There are also fruits. Try this fruit, it is very delicious."

Chen Xiao translated it...

The owner of the small shop took a few Jiabao fruits handed over by Chen Xiao, ate one, and his eyes lit up: "It's very delicious. Is this Jiabao fruit?"

"Yes. The Jiabao fruit we planted by ourselves has begun to produce one after another." Chen Xiao said.

"How much is a pound?"

"$25 a pound." The wholesale price is $20 a pound, and the retail price is definitely more expensive.

The owner of the small shop was shocked, it was too expensive.

The Jiabao fruit here is half a bucket, about five or six pounds in weight.There are also some vegetables here, there are many types, but the portion is not much...

"Are you from River Valley Ranch?"

"Yes." Chen Xiao smiled: "Are you going to buy some?"

"Of course, I'll buy them all, can it be cheaper?"

"Okay, jabo fruit is $23 per pound, tomato is $1.5 per pound, cucumber is $1 per pound, lettuce is $2 per pound..." There are not many fruits and vegetables, all of which are sold, and the income is less than $150.This is mainly due to the value of Jiabao fruit...

After we weighed and paid, the owner of the small shop asked Chen Xiao if he could cooperate, that is, hang a sign outside the shop that sells fresh vegetables and fruits from River Valley Ranch.

This...Chen Xiaoke couldn't make up his mind, so he called Chen Mo. Chen Mo, who was bathing the pets at home, went there in person after hearing this...

The ranch does not provide staff meals, neither vegetables nor meat.After all, his salary here is very high, and the middle-level staff is equivalent to the per capita income of the San Francisco Bay Area... The per capita income is the least per capita, at least 60.00% of the people do not reach the per capita income.

"Hi, I'm Chen Mo, the owner of Hegu Ranch."

The owner of the small shop did not expect the owner of the River Valley Ranch to come over in person, and was a little flattered: "Hi, my name is Ori."

"It's like this. Our ranch is going to open up our own farm planting area to grow vegetables. We will sell them in small towns in the future... If you are willing to act as an agent, accept our ranch's guide price, and there will be no problem with the listing..." Chen Mo continued Said something.

This is a small place, and the consumers are mainly the employees of the river valley ranch and the surrounding herdsmen.

Americans are so stubborn, even if there is a lot of land in the countryside, and the family is a pasture, they hardly know how to grow vegetables...

Ori thought about it and agreed.After all, most of the consumers he faces are people from the River Valley Ranch...

There are currently 93 workers in the River Valley Ranch, as well as the family members of the employees living in the ranch. There are about 150 people living scattered in the ranch. These people purchase food and daily necessities from outside... If it can be solved locally, it must be better.

Ori runs a small shop and a small ranch in the upper Moro Valley, and earns little money all year round.The idea of ​​selling vegetables and meat in the store has been around for a long time, but I'm not sure about the attitude of the River Valley Ranch... If there is a unified purchase of vegetables and meat...

Chen Mo called Bright over, and the two discussed it and worked out a contract... This contract is mainly to limit Ori's profit.

Don't underestimate the spending power of more than 100 people. This place is too remote. You have to walk dozens of kilometers to buy vegetables and meat. If you open a store here, it is almost a monopoly.According to the consumption power of 10 US dollars per person per day, it is [-] to [-] US dollars a month.

Limit Ori's profit, but there is also profit.Ori made a calculation in his mind and signed the contract...

Ori's requirements are actually not high. One more business, one or two thousand dollars in revenue a month, is very flattering.

"Haven't you thought about setting up a canteen, purchasing department, or finding a partner in the ranch?" Chen Mo looked at Bright and asked.

Bright shrugged: "This is a management problem. You can't give employees a 100% comfortable environment, otherwise the workers will become dependent and take everything for granted. This is not good...they come to work and get enough salary , that will do. Also, I think you treat your employees too much..."

Bright wasn't there when Chen Mo recruited the first batch of workers, so the salary he had set was indeed a bit higher.But think about the geographical location of the River Valley Ranch, there is no super high salary, and it is impossible to attract those employees with rich experience in working on the ranch: "Let's further reduce the cost later, if you need to recruit new employees, you can consider the current employees. Family. Some light work on the ranch, don't you think?"

"Well, of course, priority is given to the families of existing employees. I have communicated with the town mayor of San Beni, and it is also the meaning of other town residents. The town is going to ask the city government for tax rights back. At the same time , to form a town council..."

Chen Mo nodded: "Tell me, how about I take over as the mayor?"

Many of the employees of River Valley Ranch have re-registered their driver's licenses and have worked here for half a year, so they are also counted as residents of the town.If Chen Mo wants to run for mayor, the chance of being elected is quite high.

"I'll run it if you want. The current mayor's term will end in four months, and he will be re-elected. The premise is that you have to give up your Chinese nationality."

Chen Mo shrugged: "The head of the town or the head of the town council?"

"In a complete township council, the mayor is the manager, and the council is the supervisor, each with its own rights. The town's recovery of taxation rights is good for local development and for our ranch. Farm employees need a sense of belonging, that is, I have my own home... I want to plan a community in the San Beni area. If the town can take back the tax rights, the annual land tax income will be quite a lot. A town council room and mayor's office can be built and the small town police department..."

"If you are interested, you can figure it out." Building a small town community here is indeed beneficial to the ranch.The important thing is not to spend an extra penny on the ranch...

There are more than 5000 earners with a monthly salary of over 4000 in the ranch.Employees with a monthly salary of more than [-] points accounted for more than half.The worst is a worker with a monthly salary of more than [-]...

A dozen of the workers who sold their houses and moved to live and live in the ranch bought land here and are building houses.The houses under construction in the town belong to these workers.

The cheapest thing here is the land, which is used for public planning. As long as the town council votes, even the regular employees of the ranch can have a piece of land for free construction.
