Chapter 678
After seeing off Section Chief Zhang and the two masters, Su Miao and Su Yuanzheng returned to the workshop.
Distribute the packaged konjac noodles to everyone. Gently tear the bag along the opening to open it.
Su Hui finished a bag of Konjac Juice in no time and said, "It's delicious! The packaging doesn't affect the taste at all, and the amount in a bag is not too much, so I can finish it in one go. It's clean and convenient."
One aunt said: "I feel that one pack is not enough for me. If I chat with my old sisters, I can eat at least three packs to satisfy my hunger!"
Su Hui looked like she was about to do something big and asked:
"Miaomiao, now that the machine has been installed, can we get started now?
The konjac that I bought from Aunt Li’s relative arrived a few days ago. We ground it into powder yesterday and can use it right away.
However, we haven't set a price for this Konjac Juice yet, how are we going to sell it?"
"Don't worry, let's take our time. Make a batch today and try selling it tomorrow. I'll have the accountant calculate the cost and then decide the selling price."
The production process of konjac puff is quite complicated, and the cost of processing konjac flour, seasoning of konjac puff and purchasing of machinery must all be taken into account.
In addition to this packaging machine, Su Miao also bought a large freezer to use as a backup until she finds equipment that can quickly freeze konjac.
Next is a powder grinding machine. This time I bought it not for home use. It is much more efficient than a home machine and costs only two thousand yuan, which is considered affordable compared to other machines.
It is quite troublesome to calculate all these things, but fortunately her family now has a dedicated accountant, so let professionals do professional things.
Finally, after calculation, they set the price of each bag of Konjac Juice at 20 cents.
This is the price for bulk sales. You can also buy by the piece. 10 packs count as one piece, and it is packed in another soft paper box. It costs one yuan and eighty cents per box, which is a 10% discount.
After deciding to make konjac noodles a few days ago, Su Miao started preparing for packaging and ordering machines while looking for raw materials.
After asking around, I found out that there are indeed very few people growing konjac around Yongcheng. I only contacted a few households in one village who were growing it.
While Su Miao was placing orders with these households, he also asked Aunt Li to buy from her relative.
According to Aunt Li, the village where her relative married had a tradition of eating konjac products, so half of the village was growing it, so Su Miao felt relieved.
However, now is not the best season to harvest konjac. Aunt Li's relatives had collected the basket in advance with the idea of bringing some rare things from Yongcheng to visit.
The best harvesting period should be in October, which is still two months away. By then, the konjac dug out will be bigger.
In this case, Su Miao changed his strategy and started with a small purchase. He used these two months as a promotional period and implemented purchase limits as he did with papaya shreds before.
In addition to sales in our store, we mainly provide trial sales to long-term retailers, and of course we will give higher discounts on the prices.
Within these two months, subsequent production and sales arrangements will be made depending on the situation.
If the trial sales go well, she plans to set up a production line.
Right! It's basically impossible to customize a fully automated production line from 0 to 10 now, so she split the production steps into parts, looking for machines that can be used in each link, and first achieved semi-automation.
First arrange the machines and production processes, and in October you can purchase large quantities of konjac for processing.
During the harvest season, fresh konjac is processed into konjac flour to meet subsequent production needs.
