Ning Ruoruo later told Li Xiangdong, "This older sister has finally put her focus on her studies."
Li Xiangdong laughed, "You could say you've done a good deed this day."
Ning Ruoruo shook her head, "Mao Dihua has excellent aptitude. I don't want her to go astray and waste such a talented person."
It's possible for someone who has been poor for nearly thirty years to be blinded by prosperity and temporarily have their mind distorted.
As long as the wrongs are corrected in time, the path can be put back on the right track.
"Don't you always say that our country lacks agricultural talent? Well, rounding up, I guess I'm making a contribution to the country in this way."
Ning Ruoruo rarely jokes.
Li Xiangdong took her hand and said seriously, "You've already made a contribution to the country!"
Later, Mao Dihua became an authoritative expert in the field of chili pepper breeding, and developed hundreds of chili pepper varieties in her lifetime, but that's another story.
Ning Ruoruo was very busy with her studies, so Li Xiangdong couldn't see her all the time.
However, Li Xiangdong has been quite busy lately.
He hasn't been doing anything else; he's been busy registering a company lately.
With an increasing supply of ginseng and deer antlers, he had both a stable source of goods and basic sales channels, making company registration a natural next step.
Li Xiangdong registered and established Changshouxiang Ginseng and Deer Antler Pharmaceutical Corporation in Yanjing, with a registered capital of 500,000 yuan. It is a ginseng business enterprise integrating ginseng and deer antler cultivation, processing, sales and research and development.
Li Xiangdong also obtained self-operated import and export rights, with a business scope including:
Planting, purchasing, and selling ginseng, Chinese medicinal herbs, and local specialties.
Purchase and sale of wild ginseng, snow frog oil, deer antler, bee products and other agricultural and sideline products.
Processing and sales of edible agricultural products and health foods, wholesale and retail of traditional Chinese medicine preparations and Chinese herbal medicine slices, etc.
Next, Li Xiangdong went to eastern Zhejiang and officially established Nanbowan Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd.
This company has integrated the import and export business of its previous seedling base, and has also expanded its business scope to include vegetable and flower seeds, mycelium, hydroponics, cut flowers, culture media, and more.
Similarly, the registered capital of this company is also 500,000.
The two brothers, Fu Youde and Fu Youcai, couldn't understand why Li Xiangdong would choose such a name.
"Xiangdong, Nanbowan is the name of my maternal grandmother's village! Why are you still using their village name?"
"Yes, shouldn't it be called Forty-Eight Bays Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd."
Li Xiangdong was amused, but before he could explain, Feng Yucai came over with a large mug of tea and mocked, "I told you all to learn some foreign language books, but you just wouldn't! You're really showing your ignorance!"
They were all together every day and knew each other very well. Fu Youde rolled his eyes when he heard this, "Alright, alright, stop with the pedantry, just tell us what this means!"
Feng Yucai stopped, leisurely took a sip of tea, and spat out a tea stalk. "This Nanbowan, ah, is Ying..."
"Nambowan is English for 'first,' alright, hurry up and look at the contract. What are you pretending to be so important for? You're really just wasting your time!"
Fang Shilan walked over from a short distance away, interrupting Feng Yucai's words like a burst of gossip, and then walked away like a gust of wind.
Feng Yucai had been holding back for a long time, wanting to act as a teacher, but he was forced to back down halfway through, and you can imagine how upset he was.
Hey! Hi... Hey!
With that, he resigned himself to his fate and went back to his office to look at the contract.
Li Xiangdong chuckled to himself and whispered to Fu Youcai, "Manager Fang used to speak so gently, how come she's become so shrewish now?"
Fu Youcai laughed loudly, then leaned close to Li Xiangdong's ear and whispered, "Feng Yucai's English isn't even as good as Manager Fang's! We all listen to Manager Fang now, so Feng Yucai is just trying to feel superior in front of us two roughnecks."
Li Xiangdong laughed even more heartily.
It seems that no matter who you are, once you have ability, you can stand tall.
It's really hard!
Li Xiangdong stayed in eastern Zhejiang for a longer period of time because the new company was being established, and there were ribbon-cutting ceremonies, banquets, and other events to be held for leaders and colleagues from relevant departments.
Despite the help of the Fu brothers, Feng Yucai, and Fang Shilan, Li Xiangdong was still busy for several days.
After everything was settled, Li Xiangdong set off directly for western Sichuan.
Li Xiangdong's trip this time was to take over the Sichuan Xichun State-owned Baijiu Factory!
Speaking of this, it's a little different from my previous life.
Our country originally carried out two tax and profit reforms in 1983 and 1984.
However, both of these attempts to change interest rates to taxes ended in failure.
Then, in 1986, the reform of state-owned enterprises entered the stage of contracting and leasing.
However, in this lifetime, the profit-to-tax reform only lasted for one year before the state announced that state-owned enterprises would be renamed "enterprises owned by the whole people," and later "state-owned enterprises," which could be contracted or leased to individuals for operation.
It seems to have become an inevitable trend for state-owned enterprises to sign contracting agreements.
In an effort to save businesses on the verge of bankruptcy, the government spearheaded investment promotion efforts, attracting contractors with exceptionally favorable terms.
In fact, based on Li Xiangdong's experience, many state-owned enterprises were contracted out to the factory directors of the state-owned factories at that time.
His ability to successfully negotiate the contracting rights of Anchun State-owned Baijiu Factory for 200,000 yuan is simply a golden finger given to reborn people by God!
Li Xiangdong wanted to call God "Dad" and then kowtow to his father!
However, once he officially entered Anchun State-owned Baijiu Factory—oh, now it should be called Chuanxi Luyiyong Baijiu Co., Ltd.—Li Xiangdong finally understood why he had been able to contract the baijiu factory so easily and happily!
This liquor factory had outdated equipment and lazy workers. When they checked the accounts, they discovered that they owed a staggering 180,000 yuan!
They all owed money for grain to the surrounding farmers.
No wonder no one is taking it over; whoever does would have to pay off this huge hole in advance!
That's 180,000!
It's an absolutely huge hole.
After checking the accounts, Li Xiangdong carefully inspected the winery again.
Fortunately, this place is next to the Chishui River—the famous river of fine wine—and not far from Phoenix Ridge.
Good water makes good wine, and with the recipe for Green Eternal Wine that Li Xiangdong got from Zhang Yusong, it shouldn't be difficult for him to make a comeback.
After all, what others see as the biggest drawback of this distillery is its debts, while Li Xiangdong is the least short of money.
After taking over the winery, Li Xiangdong was in a hurry to register the "Luyi Yong" trademark.
Then he registered all the similar trademarks around "Greenery Forever" to prevent anyone from using similar trademarks for unfair competition.
After nearly half a year of hard work, the winery finally got back on track and produced its first batch of Greenery Yongjiu.
This batch of baijiu uses spring water from Phoenix Ridge, resulting in a pure and fragrant taste, a mellow and sweet flavor, a natural and harmonious taste, and a refreshing aftertaste.
The wine is produced, and now it's time to get busy with marketing.
Li Xiangdong was in a hurry to do something else, so he grabbed Guo Yuxi to help him.
