Countdown to the start of work 4 days
Today, all the factory employees are here. The new factory building has just been built and needs a thorough cleaning. In addition, all equipment needs to be cleaned and sorted.
Chen Qiaogu determined the work locations for several groups.
The medicine grinding group is placed in workshop one, the adhesive making group is placed in workshop two, and the medicine rubbing and packaging group is placed in workshop three. Each group is responsible for the hygiene of each workshop.
Everyone was very motivated at work, and some employees even brought tools from their homes to join in the vigorous cleaning work.
Laughter could be heard from the workshop from time to time, and it seemed that the employees were in a good mood.
Chen Xia was cleaning the safe alone. According to his request, rows of empty shelves had been placed in the safe, on which were placed plastic boxes containing sealed bags.
Like a hardworking little bee, Chen Xia kept taking out omeprazole enteric-coated tablets, compound methoxyphenamine, and compound pseudoephedrine hydrochloride sustained-release capsules from the space hospital and putting them into plastic boxes.
One box is the daily usage. Chen Xia told Qiaogu to take out one box of "secret recipe" every day, no more and no less.
Sanliu Weitai: 2,000 tablets per day, Sanliu Feitai: 300 tablets, and Sanliu Shangfengtai: 300 tablets. We will be selling the latter two medications ourselves for now. Pharmaceutical companies are welcome to purchase them if they're interested, but we won't be the sole distributor.
Those "middlemen" who had maintained long-term cooperative relations with Meiyuan had already promoted the latter two drugs in Yuezhou. Among them, Fan Leshan had the best sales.
Chen Xia had been observing him, hoping to recruit him one day. Even good wine needs a bush; a good marketer and good advertising can play a huge role in promoting a product.
But there is no need for that at the moment. It is enough to maintain a small amount of production and keep good relationships with these "middlemen".
The keys to the safe are held by Chen Guoqing and Chen Qiaogu respectively, and both of them must be present at the same time to open the door.
This was either to protect against Qiaogu, or to prevent a door from having only one lock, so if the key was lost, anyone could open it. These "secret recipes" were Chen Xia's lifeblood; if they were stolen by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences would be uncontrollable.
In addition, the safe for storing the payment is also placed here. The safe is embedded in the wall and cannot be opened by force without the password.
At noon, the office supplies donated by the pharmaceutical company arrived. Zhang Guozhi once again delivered the goods in person. Chen Xia thought he looked more like a beardless "military supervisor".
These furniture are all second-hand. Half of the things in Yuezhou Pharmaceutical Company’s warehouse are now in the Qingfeng branch. He is really more generous than a biological father. He gives you whatever you ask for without even frowning.
Chen Xia really wanted to ask Manager Bao if he had a daughter?
"Brother Chen, please give us some instructions. Where should we put these things?"
Chen Xia didn't care about these trivial matters and shouted, "Qiaogu, come and take over these tables and chairs."
Zhang Guozhi introduced a young man next to him, "Brother Chen, this is Hong Ming from our purchasing department. From now on, his task is to be stationed at your Qingfeng branch factory. You can tell him if you need anything. He will also be responsible for escorting the stomach pills produced daily."
Hong Ming was a strong man with a heroic air. Chen Xia smiled and shook his hand. "Have you ever been a soldier?"
"Yes, I just transferred to a pharmaceutical company."
Zhang Guozhi smiled and said, "Hongming is quite skilled. We only arranged for him to escort the stomach pills for their safety. Whether the company can make a successful turnaround depends entirely on your Qingfeng branch."
"Okay, okay. By the way, Brother Zhang, how will the payment be settled in the future?"
"Monthly or weekly settlement is fine. It doesn't matter if you want cash or a certificate of deposit. You're the boss now, so whatever you say goes."
Chen Xia rubbed his fingers together. "Let's pay you once a week. I need cash. I need to buy a lot of other things for this secret recipe, and all of them require cash. You can deduct the money for the herbs and give me the rest."
Zhang Guozhi smacked his lips. "Brother Chen, your costs are too high. You're spending over 100,000 yuan every month on purchasing medicinal herbs. Is there no way to reduce the costs?"
Chen Xia said with a bitter face, "I can't lower the price yet. Not to mention the ginseng and cordyceps, even this honey is imported from Nanyun Province, special Dali honey. The efficacy of this secret recipe cannot be improved without the herbs. And yet you're still squeezing my profit by 5 cents."
Zhang Guozhi felt embarrassed. The price of the medicine, which was originally 4 yuan per pill, was cut by 50 cents to 3.5 yuan.
This part of the profit concession is huge, which is also one of the reasons why Yuezhou Pharmaceutical Company is so generous now. For Chen Xia, the 50 cents profit concession is actually a protection fee to prevent other evildoers from coming to take advantage of him.
Countdown to the start of work is 3 days.
Today, Qingfeng Pharmaceutical Factory is going to conduct trial production, and Gu Lin came early in the morning to watch the fun. This is her future husband's industry, so of course she has to care about it.
As soon as she got off the car, she saw Chen Yigen and immediately ran up to him and called out sweetly, "Fourth Grandpa."
"Oh, it's Xiaoxia's wife. She's taking a day off today."
Chen Xia curled her lips and said, "Fourth Grandpa, calling her 'Xiao Xia's Wife' is too old-fashioned. Just call her Xiao Lin."
Chen Guoqing next to him joked: "Why don't we just follow the villagers' way of calling her Chen Xiasao?"
The people around laughed out loud, and someone said, "Why not call her Aqing Sao?"
Gu Lin blushed for a rare moment, and her well-behaved appearance made Chen Yigen even happier. "Alright, alright, stop joking around. Can't you see that Xiao Lin is already blushing?"
Chen Qiaogu is the busiest person in the entire factory today. She keeps patrolling back and forth in the three workshops and making some suggestions from time to time.
"Chen Li, you didn't grind the medicine finely enough. Yes, it must be ground into powder. Pick out the ones that can't make you drunk."
"Chun Yu, I added too much honey to this pot. From now on, I'll just need a ratio of 9 to 1. And remember to weigh it before adding, so it's more accurate."
"Those of you in the medicine-rubbing group, don't just stand there. Quickly wipe all the tools and keep your hands clean. This is going to be eaten. Xiulan, supervise everyone and cut all those nails."
Fortunately, several team leaders and deputy team leaders are experienced veterans, and the employees have received several months of training, so everyone got started quickly.
This kind of handmade pill making requires no technical skills at all. If there is someone who still doesn't understand the production process today, Chen Yigen would chase her away without Chen Xia doing anything.
Chen Xia and Gu Lin walked around the workshop casually, looking around and discussing some details with Qiaogu from time to time.
Both of them were new recruits, and it was their first time to set up a factory, so they felt a little insecure.
