Chapter 94: Pack up and leave
At noon after work, people who bought vegetables at the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative were asked where they bought the tofu and bean sprouts. Everyone who got the news ran to the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
Su Qingyue didn't expect that she would be busy until three in the afternoon, and all the soy products were sold out!
Very smooth!
Xiang Jianming breathed a sigh of relief while sitting on the tractor, "Shishui, go buy some steamed buns for everyone to fill their stomachs." Xiang Shishui smiled and ran to the state-owned restaurant.
Li Zilan and Su Qingwu smiled at each other. They had finally passed the first level and all the hard work these days was worth it.
After Su Qingyue got off work, Pei Huaiye took the bearded man into the supply and marketing cooperative, "He said Su Qianqian ordered him to cause trouble!"
Su Qianqian looked at Zhang Dongfeng and Su Qingyue, then at the bearded man, and argued loudly: "Nonsense! I don't even know him! Pei Huaiye, even if you are protecting your wife, you can't just accuse someone wrongly, right?!"
"And you! When did I ever order you to do anything bad?! If you can't explain it clearly, I'll call the police!"
The bearded man had already thought of a countermeasure. He rolled his eyes and said, "I came here with the old lady to buy vegetables not long ago. You said every day that your supply and marketing cooperative would soon supply tofu, but it turned out that you didn't supply it at all. I just listened to you and came here to question you!"
Su Qianqian was speechless. This was indeed what she said at that time.
Zhang Dongfeng originally agreed to let Su Qianqian work as a sorter for Su Qingyue's sake, but now he knows that the two of them are not on good terms with each other in the village.
Besides, Jiang Meng said that Su Qianqian often suffered from morning sickness during her pregnancy. Plus, she was a troublemaker. If she continued to work and something happened to her stomach, she would definitely blame the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Su Qianqian, come to the office."
Su Qianqian closed the door, feeling uneasy. "President Zhang, Sister Chen Yan has already punished me, and I apologized in public. I was indeed wrong about this matter. I'm sorry!"
"Okay, Su Qianqian, you haven't worked for two full months, but I'll pay you based on two months' work, a total of sixteen dollars, take it, pack up and leave!"
Su Qianqian asked loudly: "What do you mean? Why don't you let me work here anymore?"
Zhang Dongfeng had never been yelled at like this before. He frowned and said, "You are pregnant and vomit frequently, which affects your normal work. Other tally clerks also said that you can't move heavy objects at all. We are hiring people to do the work, not to invite a Buddha to worship!"
Su Qianqian slammed the door and came out of the office with a pale face.
Su Qingyue passed by her and went to the office to accept praise and settle the money for the delivery.
"Tofu is 1.2 cents per pound, bean skin is 2.8 cents per pound, and bean sprouts are 6 cents per pound. I'll buy them at this price." Su Qingyue spoke after careful consideration.
Zhang Dongfeng knew that hiring a master for training, purchasing machines, finding people to make and process these would all cost a lot, and Su Qingyue would have to bear all of this by herself. He thought for a moment and then agreed.
"But, girl, you are obviously our purchasing agent who is only helping your village to get good things."
Zhang Dongfeng counted the money and joked, "If you expand your business in the future, don't raise the price for our supply and marketing cooperative."
He knew that this small supply and marketing cooperative could not trap a little girl like Su Qingyue.
"Promise not to mention it!"
Having come to this point, Su Qingyue simply told him her plan, "President Zhang, I plan to resign after this month."
"Why did you quit your job?" Zhang Dongfeng stood up suddenly. "I didn't say that you are not allowed to help the village. If you do a good job, your village will benefit, and our supply and marketing cooperative will also benefit. I am not a short-sighted person!"
Su Qingyue smiled and comforted him, "No, President, I went to the hospital yesterday to check my pregnancy and it's just been one month."
"I will set up the processing plant in the village later, so that we can provide a stable supply to our supply and marketing cooperative. You can leave the purchasing to Sister Chen Yan, she is reliable."
Zhang Dongfeng looked reluctant, "Then work until the end of the month. You have to teach Chen Yan about the purchases before you leave."
Zhang Dongfeng sent Su Qingyue to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, where Pei Huaiye and a car full of people were waiting for her.
Su Qingwu drove back home. Pei Huaiye padded the car with thick straw and cushions, let Su Qingyue sit down, and held her in his arms.
The village chief and the eldest sister-in-law all looked at the young couple with envy. Su Qingyue was too shy to help but blush in front of outsiders.
Xiang Jianming asked Su Qingyue with a smile, "How much did you settle, girl?"
Li Zilan and the others all looked at her with burning eyes. Su Qingyue did not keep them in suspense. "The supply and marketing cooperative's purchase price is the same as ours. Tofu is 1.2 yuan per pound, bean curd skin is 2.8 yuan per pound, and bean sprouts are 0.6 yuan per pound. The total amount we earned today is 92 yuan."
Everyone was delighted when they heard the number. Li Zilan saw that Su Qingyue looked uneasy, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
Pei Huaiye roughly calculated and asked the person in his arms, "Is the bean curd too bad?"
"Yeah! And the loss is huge!"
Xiang Jianming's expression suddenly changed, "What's going on?"
Su Qingyue carefully calculated the accounts for everyone, "Six hundred kilograms of tofu sold for 72 yuan at the price of 0.12 yuan. Minus the cost of 40 yuan for two hundred kilograms of soybeans, the profit is about 32 yuan."
"Bean sprouts are the most profitable. Three hundred kilograms of bean sprouts only require thirty kilograms of soybeans, and the profit is twelve yuan."
"These two things together can make 1,320 yuan a month."
"But the yield of bean curd is too low. One kilogram of soybeans can only produce two ounces of bean curd. One hundred kilograms of bean curd is sold to the industrial sales department at 0.28 yuan. Our profit is negative, and we lose 72 yuan."
Su Qingyue blamed herself and said, "It's my fault that I didn't calculate the accounts in advance, but I see that all the tofu skin is sold out today. Next, I will see the market feedback. If I want to make tofu skin, I will either raise the price or change the packaging method."
Xiang Jianming said, "How can you be blamed for this? This is something we all did together. Since bean curd skin is losing money, we will not supply it now. Let's supply tofu and bean sprouts first, and do it step by step."
"Yes, bean sprouts are easy to grow and have high profits. When we return to the village, we will teach the villagers how to grow bean sprouts, just like last time, and we will uniformly accept them at a price of three cents."
“Is three cents too much?”
"Our village's grain production is not high. What will we do when we run out of soybeans?"
Su Qingyue explained one by one, "At 3 cents, the villagers can make a profit. If they don't have soybeans, they can get them from the production team. Ten kilograms of soybeans are sold for 2 yuan, and 100 kilograms of bean sprouts can be produced. At 3 cents, they can make 1 yuan. We still have a profit margin of 3 cents when we supply the supply and marketing cooperative."
Xiang Jianming was thinking about the content of the notice, "I will notify the villagers to hold a meeting tomorrow morning to clarify this matter."
Su Qingyue nodded. "We should make the tofu ourselves so we can strictly control the quality. We will calculate the accounts after the finished products such as fermented black beans and bean paste are out. If there is profit margin, we can make further arrangements."
After discussion, everyone agreed.
Su Qingyue was still thinking about how to prepare to open the factory as soon as possible. She discussed the procedures and processes with Captain Xiang.
Pei Huaiye listened quietly, thinking silently about what he could do for his wife.
"By the way, school is about to start in Qingxi, and I need to send the two kids to school."
Xiang Jianming's two grandsons are also six or seven years old. They asked: "What is the procedure for going to school in the city? It's time for our children to go to school."
"Then go to the senior class with Zhuangzhuang. The tuition is eight dollars per semester, which is three dollars higher than Qingshan Team." Pei Huaiye replied.
