Chapter 265 Production Line
"Mom, your fried fish is so delicious, even the bones melt in your mouth. Have you ever thought about selling it all over the country, or even abroad?"
Qin Mahua's eyes widened in shock. "Can it be sold all over the country? And even abroad? Didn't they say before that it's easy to fall into traps if there are no standards for grilled fish fillets?"
"That's different from this. There are standards for canned fish. As long as the crispy fish you make meets the standards for canned fish, you can sell it abroad."
Qin Mahua was a little bit incredulous. "How can crispy fish be the same as canned fish? Canned fish is a high-end product."
Chu Xuan smiled and patiently explained, "Put the crispy fish you made into a can, and it becomes canned fish."
"Will this work?"
"How do you know if it works if you don't try? I'll contact the cannery. You can make a batch first, seal it for a few days, and then I'll send it to the testing department for testing."
With Chu Xuan's encouragement, Qin Mahua was eager to try, "Okay. What kind of fish should we use?"
She can make several kinds of fried fish.
Chu Xuan suggested, "Small yellow croaker, hairtail, and sardines are all fine."
"Then make all three types of fish crispier."
"Okay. Don't forget to tell Dad not to sell these three kinds of fish you catch in the future. Save them for making fried fish."
"Okay. Xiaoxuan, when do we start making crispy fish?"
"I'll go find Grandpa Wang first and ask him to help contact the fruit canning factory to sort out the packaging first. Once everything is confirmed, we can start making the crispy fish."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Qin Mahua couldn't stop smiling even before she officially started selling crispy fish.
Because she knew Xiaoxuan was a reliable person and this would definitely succeed.
Qin Mahua continued to wash seaweed, while Chu Xuan rode his bike to find Wang Depin.
At this moment, Wang Depin had just finished inspecting the workshop.
The workers in the workshop are very motivated, but they become unhappy when they hear that they don’t have to work overtime tonight.
I wish I could work overtime every day to earn money.
Wang Depin walked to the office while thinking about how to expand production capacity.
Just as I walked into the office and before I had time to make tea, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Chu Xuan walked in with a smile on his face, "Grandpa Wang, do you know anyone at the fruit canning factory?"
Wang Depin had a kind face and pointed to the sofa, "Sit down and talk."
Chu Xuan smiled and waved her hand. "No need. Just a few words. Just stand there and talk. I have to go back and bake seaweed rolls later."
"I know the director of the fruit canning factory. Tell me, what can I do for you?"
"Could they please help me package a batch of crispy fish? I want to mail it overseas so my mom can test it to see if it meets foreign canned fish standards. Of course, I'll also find a testing agency in China to test it."
"Crispy fish? Canned fish?"
Wang Depin clapped his hands, walked around the office excitedly, and continued, "Why didn't I think of this before? Xiaoxuan, how about we build a canned fish production line in our factory? Your mother-in-law in our village is famous for her delicious fried fish. How about letting her invest in the company with her recipe?"
Chu Xuan smiled and nodded. "That's a good idea. Actually, I didn't mention setting up a production line at first because I was worried that the investment would be too large and you wouldn't agree. So I had to settle for the next best thing and ask you to help contact the cannery."
"I was the one who helped run the production line at the fruit canning factory! I know everything about this."
"That's great! However, we still need to contact the cannery first to help package a batch and send it to my mother. After it passes the inspection, it won't be too late for you to put it on the production line."
"There's no need to wait for your mother's inspection to pass. As long as the domestic inspection passes, we'll go on the production line."
"Grandpa Wang, don't you need to hold a meeting to discuss the production line?"
"Of course. But they won't object."
"Why?"
"Because someone approached me before and asked me to make our factory a benchmark for seafood. At that time, I held a meeting with several factory managers to discuss this matter and asked them to come up with a plan, but there has been no progress to date. Canned fish is definitely feasible. When the time comes, sardines, hairtail, small yellow croaker, octopus, etc. can be canned. Our factory's canned fish will definitely be sold all over the country and abroad. I have this confidence."
Wang Depin is very motivated, so Chu Xuan has nothing to worry about.
On the same day, Wang Depin contacted the director of the fruit canning factory and asked him if he would take the packaging job.
This was the first time the cannery had taken on the job of packaging, but for Wang Depin's sake, they immediately agreed.
We agreed to take the crispy fish to their factory for packaging tomorrow night, and there would be overtime workers waiting there.
If we go during the day, it will delay their factory production.
Chu Xuan returned to Qin Mahua with this news.
Qin Mahua danced with joy.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, I ran to the dock to wait for Mu Qinlao and the others.
After a while, Fu Qing also arrived at the dock carrying the fish he had caught.
Qin Mahua whispered to her about making canned fish, and she immediately became excited.
The matter of my mother-in-law lending 5,000 yuan to the Qin family was forgotten.
Once my mother-in-law's business gets off the ground, she can earn tens of thousands, not just five thousand.
As soon as he saw his boat approaching, he went forward and asked people to take all the hairtail, sardines and small yellow croaker home to make crispy fish.
It so happened that most of the fish caught today were these three, and a small number were mackerel, octopus and the like.
So they sold the mackerel, octopus and the like, and took the rest on a cart, half to Chu Xuan's mother's yard, and the other half back to the Mu family.
Both stoves will be used tomorrow.
Kill and clean the fish first today.
Qin Mahua took Fu Qing, Muchen and Fu Mu to work hard at home.
Chu Xuan called Gao Meijuan to go to her mother's yard to work.
There were so many people staying at the Mu family because they were going to prepare dinner to entertain Gao Meijuan's family.
Two hours later, Chu Xuan and Gao Meijuan cleaned all the fish.
It's a few degrees below zero in the yard now, so there's no need to worry about the fish going bad.
All the fish were placed in a wooden basin, covered with a wooden lid and pressed down with large stones, so there was no need to worry about someone's cat coming over to steal the fish.
After doing all this, Gao Meijuan and Chu Xuan locked the gate and walked towards the Mu family.
Mu Qinlao would go and call Wang Depin and Miao Dacui, so Gao Meijuan didn't have to go back to her own house to call them.
Walking and chatting with Chu Xuan, "Mingchen and Chenze should be back tonight, right? It's so cold, I don't know why Mr. Gu is interested in sea fishing."
Chu Xuan looked helpless. "I heard that Mr. Gu grew up in the coldest province and really misses winter fishing. It's true that the temperature here is low, but compared to where he grew up, it's warmer. Who knows, maybe Chen Ze and the others haven't been as cold as Mr. Gu."
"Xiao Xuan, your analysis makes sense. Do you think Mr. Gu will order our grilled fish fillets when he returns?"
"If he wants to develop the southwest market, he will definitely do it. Unless he doesn't want to occupy the southwest market."
"What if he really doesn't want to occupy it? Wouldn't Mingchen and Chenze have to endure the cold with him for nothing?"
"I definitely can't stand the cold in vain. If Mr. Gu returns to shore and isn't sure about grilling the fish fillets, I'll come talk to him."
"How are you going to talk to him? You can't sell him canned fish that hasn't even been made yet, right?"
"That's the plan. Grandma Gao, if Mr. Gu really doesn't want to grill the fish fillets, we have to find a way to keep him for another day so he can try the crispy fish and take away the canned fish samples."
