Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Upon hearing the words "an annual income of no less than 10,000 yuan," Guo Lin was immediately tempted.

Although he did not collude with the factory director and others, it does not mean that Guo Lin was unaware of the situation.

The factory manager and his associates profited by buying substandard pig feed, and their combined income for the entire year wouldn't exceed five thousand yuan.

Wang Dong, standing before them, promised that his annual income would not be less than 10,000 yuan, which was twice as much as the factory manager's and others' income.

Moreover, these incomes are all obtained through normal channels and do not involve any illegal or disorderly conduct. Anyone would be tempted by such an offer.

But Guo Lin did not nod immediately.

Wang Dong wouldn't give himself such a high salary for no reason. Besides, nobody knows if Wang Dong is just making empty promises about an annual income of 10,000 yuan.

Based on a 1% equity dividend, if one's annual income is 10,000 yuan, it means that the farm needs to earn at least one million yuan a year. With various costs added, the annual turnover would be three or four million yuan, or even more.

The Fifth Pig Farm in Sijiucheng was the largest, with an annual output of 5,000 pigs, but its total annual revenue was only 600,000 to 700,000 yuan.

To achieve a turnover of three to four million, if all the pigs were raised, the farm would need to raise at least forty to fifty thousand pigs.

The total investment required would amount to millions.

Although Wang Dong was the owner of Dongjun Restaurant, Guo Lin still doubted whether he had such great power.

Frowning, he asked the question that had been bothering him: "Boss Wang..."

"Given the current scale of Dongjun Hotel, you only need to raise three or four thousand pigs, tens of thousands of chickens, tens of thousands of ducks, and five or six thousand sheep..."

"The total revenue should only be a little over a million, and the profit would be good if it were two or three hundred thousand. How could they possibly give me a bonus of tens of thousands of yuan..."

"besides……"

"You just said that Dongjun Restaurant is going to start a fried chicken chain, and it will consume thousands of chickens every day..."

"At current chicken prices, will it be able to sell?"

Upon hearing the other party's answer, Wang Dong knew he had met an expert, which strengthened his resolve to recruit them to his farm. He immediately replied, "The price of an old hen in Beijing has skyrocketed to over four yuan. If we use them to make fried chicken, given the current wage levels of ordinary people in Beijing, very few people can afford it."

"To solve this problem..."

"I specifically imported broiler chickens from Europe and America through a foreign trade company... As long as the chicken feed is prepared in advance, the broiler chickens only need to be raised for more than 40 days from hatching to grow to four or five pounds and reach the market weight standard..."

"The cost is less than a third of the price of a mature hen on the market, which is just over one yuan per hen..."

"If we use them to make fried chicken, ordinary people will definitely be able to afford it."

"Based on the calculation of 5,000 white-feathered chickens being sold every day, even if each chicken only earns one cent, 5,000 chickens can earn 500 yuan, which adds up to nearly 200,000 yuan in net income per year."

"You can earn fifty yuan by raising one pig, so raising four thousand pigs can earn you about two hundred thousand yuan."

"Earn 20 yuan per sheep, and 5,000 sheep together can earn 100,000 yuan."

"Supplying restaurants with 500 free-range chickens and 500 free-range ducks a day, their profit margin is definitely higher than that of broiler chickens. On average, they earn 30 cents per chicken or duck, which adds up to over 100,000 yuan in profit a year." "And that doesn't even include the income from chicken and duck eggs..."

"If the conditions at the farm are suitable, we can also dig a few fish ponds nearby to raise fish, and cultivate hundreds of acres of land specifically for growing feed for pigs and sheep. This will not only reduce the cost of raising livestock, but also allow us to dispose of the manure produced by the livestock on-site..."

Seeing Guo Lin staring at him with a dumbfounded expression, Wang Dong spoke again: "Deputy Factory Director Guo..."

Do you still think it's impossible for a farm to earn a million a year?

"Besides our own breeding..."

"We can also sign breeding agreements with the local people..."

“Our farm provides them with piglets and lambs, and they raise pigs and goats for us at their own homes. Once they meet the standards, our farm will purchase them at market prices, slaughter them, and send them to restaurants.”

"Even if we only make ten yuan per pig, several thousand pigs a year can still earn us tens of thousands of yuan."

"Besides, my Dongjun Hotel can't always only have six branches..."

"As Beijing grows larger and its population increases, it will definitely expand outwards further..."

"The more branches there are, the more pigs will be consumed every day, and the higher the profits of the farm will become."

After Wang Dong finished speaking, Guo Lin was shocked for a full minute before he slowly calmed down, staring wide-eyed at Wang Dong and asking, "Boss Wang... did you really import white-feathered chickens from abroad...?"

Wang Dong nodded: "Not only did we introduce white-feathered chickens, but we also brought back several thousand breeding chickens..."

“You specialize in breeding, so you should know how to get these breeding chickens to continuously produce broiler chickens…”

"As long as you're willing to come and be my factory manager..."

"Except for the accountant and the deputy factory manager in charge of purchasing and sales, who must be appointed by me, you have the final say on the appointment of all other personnel at the farm... I will never be an outsider directing insiders or rashly interfering in the affairs of the farm."

"in addition……"

"I've already rented the land for the farm. It's about 50 kilometers from Beijing, and it only takes a little over an hour by car and transport truck..."

"To facilitate the farm's feed procurement and to deliver the freshest pork, chicken, duck, mutton, eggs to restaurants throughout Beijing, once the farm is on track, I will try to provide it with four transport vehicles. This will make it much more convenient for you to travel back and forth to Beijing."

"If you agree, you can start working at the farm tomorrow..."

"in addition……"

"The farm is currently undergoing basic construction. You are all professional livestock breeders. Although you don't understand construction, you know what buildings a farm needs and how to build them to ensure the best growth of the pigs, chickens, and ducks. Therefore, I still hope that you and your apprentices can start working at the farm as soon as possible..."

Guo Lin finally made up his mind and thought for a moment before answering, "I have one apprentice who can raise pigs, one who can raise chickens and ducks, and one who can raise sheep... The other two apprentices are a bit less skilled, but they can come with me to raise and breed white-feathered chickens..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong knew he had successfully poached the people. His eyes lit up as he said, "I can offer them a monthly salary of 250 yuan as branch factory manager, and a monthly bonus of 250 yuan as well. However, whether they can receive the full amount depends on their work performance. You, as the factory manager, will score them and distribute the bonuses based on their scores."

"The two deputies will receive a monthly salary of 150 yuan, and their bonuses will also be 150 yuan, distributed according to their performance evaluations..." (End of Chapter)
