Chapter 487 I Want to Open a Deli
Liang Xiulan strode over and called softly, "Uncle Du..."
Du Changjing turned around, was surprised at first, then his expression returned to normal and he forced a smile on his face.
"Lanlan...are you here to order packaging bags again?"
"After this, I'm afraid I won't be able to provide you with it..."
Liang Xiulan stared at the ruins before her, her brows furrowed. "Why did it become like this? Didn't my mom call you?"
Du Changjing patted his trouser leg and said in a deep voice, "It did. I thought it was just a bit of water, so I did some simple flood prevention work, but I didn't expect it to be a major flood."
"The gate workshop and so on, ah..."
"This is a pit. Even if everything is well protected, it will eventually flood."
"This printing factory is quite old. It was built when the country provided the first batch of industrial support, the same year as our National Cotton Mill."
"It's not bad to be able to persist for so many years."
"But you won't get any future dividends..."
It's already like this, and you're still talking about dividends. Liang Xiulan even plans to invest in him to open another printing factory, and then she will become a major shareholder.
But looking at his haggard face, I wonder if he still has the energy to manage the printing factory.
Liang Xiulan stood by and watched for a while. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Jiang Jinzhou coming over on a tricycle.
He was responsible for the demolition and reconstruction of the entire street.
"Xiu Lan? Why are you here?"
Liang Xiulan nodded towards the printing factory and said, "I want to order a batch of packaging bags."
Jiang Jinzhou got out of the car, glanced at the ruins, and shook his head: "This place is no longer viable. It has been designated as a residential area."
"If Uncle Du wants to rebuild the factory, he can apply for subsidies from the county and find a place in the development zone."
Du Changjing was about to wave his hand when Liang Xiulan chimed in, "Yes, Uncle Du, why don't you apply for a license to reopen the factory?"
"If you don't have enough money, I'll invest in you!"
At the beginning, based on her words and a picture, Du Changjing believed her, signed a contract with her, and gave her dividends every month.
Without these dividends, Liang Xiulan would not have been able to get to where she is today.
Now that the printing factory is in trouble, she has to help in any way she can. If possible, she might even become a major shareholder of the printing factory.
Du Changjing hesitated after hearing her proposal.
Judging from Liang Xiulan's expression, Jiang Jinzhou must be eager for him to reopen the factory.
Perhaps it was because he had helped her before? Or perhaps the spice factory needed to consume the packaging bags for a long time, so he spoke up for Liang Xiulan.
"If your factory is demolished, the government will compensate you, and there are also a lot of government subsidies."
"The county magistrate is strongly supporting the factory's reconstruction. If you don't know how to do it, I can take you there."
Liang Xiulan: "Yes, go ahead. If you don't reopen the factory, what will happen to these laid-off employees?"
The two of them talked back and forth and finally convinced Du Changjing.
"Okay, okay, I'll go. I'll go in the next two days!"
Even if you don't consider yourself, you have to consider your son.
With government support and compensation for the abandoned factory, rebuilding the factory has become much easier.
While he is still able to work hard, he will work hard for his son for a few more years. When he is old and buried, he will not have to worry about his son.
Du Changjing's printing factory is temporarily unable to place orders, so Liang Xiulan can only look for other printing factories.
But as soon as she entered the workshop, she saw packaging bags of various sweet plum powders and seasonings.
The categories are almost exactly the same as hers, except for the pictures on the packaging.
And there is more than one.
It seems that after the heavy rain, market competition has become more intense, and the output of orchids is likely to drop again. She has to hurry up and study new plans.
After ordering the packaging bags, Liang Xiulan went straight home.
She has been out for quite some time, so she needs to hurry back to feed her.
While breastfeeding, I was thinking about how to capture the market.
After feeding the baby and preparing to go out for dinner, I saw Liu Guizhi bringing in braised pig's trotters.
"Come here. I see you've been busy lately. I'm worried you might not have enough milk. Eat some pig's trotters to replenish your milk."
The moment she picked up the pig's trotter, an idea flashed through her mind.
She wants to open a delicatessen! A chain store! Selling it with condiments!
She believes in the brand effect and that Yizhilan has already opened up the market. The reason for the decline in production is the emergence of competitors.
The competition is also in the seasoning. If she launches new products at this time, she will definitely attract more customers and deepen the impression of the Yijilan brand in people's minds.
Yizhilan is not only used as a seasoning, but also as a prepared dish.
People who eat don't care what brand of seasoning is used, they only care where they buy their food.
Liang Xiulan started trying to make cooked food that afternoon.
With the cooking skills she learned from her previous life, she cooked a whole table full of food in one afternoon.
Braised meats and dishes of various flavors are all placed on the table for the family to taste.
When Jiang Jinzhou came back, he was stunned to see the table full of things.
"Whose birthday is it?"
Liang Xiulan didn't answer, but pinched a piece of spicy lotus root and stuffed it into his mouth.
"How does it taste?"
Jiang Jinzhou raised his eyebrows: "Hmm, delicious! Who made it?"
"I!"
Liang Xiulan's eyes sparkled and she looked confident.
Jiang Jinzhou picked up the chopsticks in surprise, picked up a piece of pork liver and put it into his mouth. After tasting it, he gave her a thumbs up.
"Hmm, delicious. Why did you think of making this?"
Liang Xiulan said, "I want to open a delicatessen!"
"Huh? Why are you suddenly thinking of opening a delicatessen? What about the spice factory?"
"I want to sell prepared foods in my spice shop. I want to change the name of Yizhilan Spice Shop to Yizhilan Spice Delicatessen! What do you think?"
Jiang Jinzhou grabbed a piece of braised chicken, chewed it carefully, and thought seriously about her idea.
"Can you first tell me why you suddenly want to sell prepared food?"
Liang Xiulan told Jiang Jinzhou about the packaging bags she saw at the printing factory today.
Jiang Jinzhou said, "I suggest that we investigate the market over the next two days. If things are really as you said, with a large influx of new products into the market, it will be necessary to launch new products."
"But if things aren't as bad as you think, I suggest you hold off on adding cooked food."
"After all, prepared food is difficult to prepare, easily loses weight, and has a short shelf life."
"If we produce in large quantities and can't sell them, that would be terrible and we'd easily lose money."
“Also, there are too many new products, making it difficult to manage them.”
If it were in the past, Jiang Jinzhou would definitely say that she was dreaming and that this and that were not possible.
They even disparaged Liang Xiulan in various ways, thinking that she didn't have the ability.
Not only did he not offer any suggestions, he didn't even listen seriously to Liang Xiulan's ideas.
But now Jiang Jinzhou really cares about Liang Xiulan's career.
Liang Xiulan's temper was no longer as bad as before. She listened attentively and seriously considered Jiang Jinzhou's suggestions.
In the evening, Jiang Jinzhou ate meat until he was full.
"Wife, what you cook is really delicious..."
Liu Guizhi quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, Xiulan's cooking skills are really good. Let her cook from now on. My cooking is not good."
Jiang Jinzhou covered his face: "Mom...that's not what I meant."
Liu Guizhi: "I know, I know!"
She knew that she said that because she didn't want to cook.
Before, Zhang Cuifen was here and she did most of the work in the kitchen.
She has been spoiled and will feel tired even if she does more.
Zhang Cuifen went back to her hometown to rest and didn’t know when she would be back. She really wanted someone to cook for her.
