After spending July 1st with his family, Feng Haidong quickly got busy again.
On the one hand, I need to go back to manage the store in the provincial capital.
Meanwhile, things are progressing unexpectedly smoothly on the younger brother Feng Haiwen's side.
In particular, after Feng Haiwen found Fan Mingqiang, he told Fan Mingqiang about helping him open a crayfish restaurant in their city.
Fan Mingqiang immediately agreed and said that as long as Feng Haidong was willing to provide the soup base and crayfish, he would arrange the other shops and personnel.
Feng Haiwen even managed to quickly connect with their local seafood market through Fan Mingqiang's connections.
Of course, Feng Haiwen was quite experienced, so he didn't immediately set up the crayfish transit station in Fan Mingqiang's city. Instead, he went to some surrounding cities to conduct research.
Feng Haiwen led four young men from the village out of the city and into many other places.
I've traveled to almost all the major cities in the province.
Finally, Feng Haiwen and his group went to the provincial capital and found Feng Haidong, where they gave him a general account of what they had seen and heard.
In fact, based on Feng Haidong's understanding from later generations, he knew that even without his younger brother leading the way, placing the transit point in Fan Mingqiang's city was the best option.
Although Fan Mingqiang's city is not the provincial capital, it is a very important transportation hub.
It can be described as a transit hub connecting the east, west, north, and south of the province.
Especially with the development of the transportation and logistics industry in later generations, Fan Mingqiang's city became the largest logistics hub in the province. It can be said that most of the express deliveries in and out of the province had to pass through Fan Mingqiang's city.
However, Feng Haidong's younger brother, Feng Haiwen, also brought back some unexpected news.
“Brother, I’ve really seen it all on this trip. I didn’t realize how much the outside world has changed. I think it’s the best thing that Fan Mingqiang and his city set up a transit station. It’s a great transportation hub, and more importantly, it makes it easier for us to transport crayfish across provinces.”
Feng Haidong was quite surprised when his younger brother mentioned crossing provincial borders.
Feng Haidong's original idea was to first expand within the province and then gradually spread it to other provinces.
Unexpectedly, my younger brother had already made arrangements for cross-province travel.
Feng Haidong asked, "Did you go outside the province this time?"
Feng Haiwen nodded and said, "Yes, we went to Jiangsu Province in the east this time, and I found that eating crayfish there is a tradition, and they also farm them. But I found that it seems to be more convenient for us to transport them there than for them. I think we can try to enter their market."
The younger brother also told Feng Haidong about the information he had brought back.
After listening to the information his younger brother brought back, Feng Haidong had a general idea of what was going on.
Indeed, just as his younger brother said, it is much more convenient for Feng Haidong and his group to transport goods to neighboring provinces than for them.
It's especially convenient to send goods to the capital of Jiangsu Province.
Feng Haidong felt this was an excellent opportunity.
Since my wife's hometown is in Jiangsu Province, it's a good opportunity to contact people from her hometown.
This way, his wife could find reliable people in her hometown to help with marketing and open a branch of a crayfish restaurant there.
In my previous life, I was responsible for supplying crayfish from my wife's hometown to Feng Haidong's area.
In this life, Feng Haidong felt he could reverse the flow.
He could even make some adjustments to the recipe based on his wife's understanding of the tastes of her hometown people, and Feng Haidong felt that he might be able to successfully gain a larger market share.
After introducing this trip, I will describe the visits to some places both inside and outside the province.
Feng Haiwen then went on to talk about Fan Mingqiang's situation.
"Brother, it seems that Fan Mingqiang has some funds and wants to make some investments. However, he didn't know what he wanted to do before we went there. So when we talked to him, he immediately agreed to help us open a shop. He was really straightforward."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "He had actually contacted me before, and when he delivered wine to my store in the provincial capital, he came over and tasted the crayfish in my store, so he must have always wanted my recipe to open a store."
Feng Haiwen couldn't help but ask, "Fourth Brother, are you really going to give him the formula?"
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "It doesn't conflict with our hometown or the provincial capital for them to open a shop locally. Moreover, if his shop does well, it can also boost the sales of crayfish farming in my brother-in-law's village. This is a good thing. Why don't we give him the recipe? We should take a long-term view."
After hearing what Feng Haidong said, Feng Haiwen felt that it made a lot of sense.
Feng Haiwen then asked, "Fourth Brother, shall we set up a transit point for Fan Mingqiang? Supply him with crayfish and recipes, and help him open a shop there?"
Feng Haidong nodded and said, "That's right. However, the transfer station will not be set up for the time being this year because the crayfish season is almost over. If we set up the transfer station this year, it may not be able to operate for more than a few months. You take Shujian and the other three and go there to help Fan Mingqiang open the store."
After that, you'll be responsible for deliveries over there, as well as deliveries to surrounding cities. This year, we'll focus on establishing a foothold in the market before we officially begin expansion.
After finalizing the plan, Feng Haiwen took four young men from the village on another trip to the provincial capital.
Then they went straight back to the town and village and began to ship the goods to Fan Mingqiang, following Feng Haidong's plan.
Feng Haidong even took some time to visit Fan Mingqiang and help him open his shop.
Fan Mingqiang had indeed prepared the funds well in advance, and had even found the right people.
