Time flies.
Wang Tianxiao has been extremely busy lately, leaving most of the station-related matters to Li Guanping and his team.
He would go and check on it every day.
Seeing that both herbs were growing well and thriving, he seemed to see the joy of the autumn harvest.
He specifically sought out Mi Qingsong to come and see the site. Old Mi was very satisfied, saying that he hadn't expected the climate and environment of Yangziling to be so suitable for growing medicinal herbs, and he certainly hadn't expected that Wang Tianxiao, a newcomer from out of town, would find the knack for it so easily, achieving success by accident.
Wang Tianxiao took the opportunity to discuss the acquisition with Mi Qingsong. Mi Qingsong roughly estimated the yield and felt that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, one mu of land could conservatively produce about 100 jin.
Two thousand mu of land yields two hundred thousand jin of herbs. Currently, the price of both herbs is around two yuan per jin, and if you're lucky, you can sell them for around five hundred thousand yuan.
Even if we discount this estimate by 20%, it would still be a profit of 400,000.
Mi Qingsong was very surprised by such benefits.
The main reason was that he never imagined someone could lease an entire mountain to grow medicinal herbs.
In those days, people had just escaped the poverty line and were thinking about how to grow more food and fill their stomachs.
They had no idea that these random herbs existed, let alone that they would grow them.
That's how making money often works. The reason why many ways to make a lot of money are not because the industry is difficult, but because most people simply don't know about it or can't even imagine it.
Money ultimately ends up in the hands of people with ideas and courage.
Faced with Mi Qingsong's surprise, Wang Tianxiao cleverly attributed some of the credit to Mi Qingsong, saying that he had taught him well, and took the opportunity to ask Mi Qingsong to introduce some resources for sale.
Wang Tianxiao was very good at handling things; the price he offered was two cents lower than that of the Qingquan Herbal Medicine Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
If it were 200,000 jin, he would directly lose 40,000 yuan.
This 40,000 yuan is for Mi Qingsong.
He told Mi Qingsong that he would sell at this price and that there was no issue of raising or lowering the price.
Mi Qingsong didn't understand at first, but with Wang Tianxiao's hints, he finally realized it.
He was secretly delighted, thinking that Wang Tianxiao was a very sensible young man.
This is equivalent to Wang Tianxiao making him a middleman, and the two cents per pound share is Mi Qingsong's profit.
Anyway, Mi Qingsong has already retired and is no longer a staff member of the unit, so there is no question of him making any mistakes.
The supply and marketing cooperative didn't pay a high price, so the government didn't lose out. The herbs they received were of good quality, not substandard. From any perspective, there was nothing wrong with them.
Wang Tianxiao was not disappointed that a portion of the profits were taken away.
He knew his biggest challenge wasn't planting the herbs, but rather how to sell so many of them.
He could only sell to supply and marketing cooperatives, and he didn't know how much they would take. If the quantity was small, he would have to go to supply and marketing cooperatives in other places, or even go to some Chinese medicine factories in the Northeast or South to discuss the sale, which would take too much time.
Herbs are not like ordinary raw materials, and pharmaceutical companies are quite cautious about using them. They may not use herbs that they are not familiar with.
Because of the influence of water, soil and climate in different places, the herbs grown are strictly speaking different, and new properties must be studied to make them into medicines.
Mi Qingsong is an expert in the industry and has a lot of resources. Wang Tianxiao has been thinking about making use of his resources since he started planting. That's why he often visits Mi Qingsong under the guise of seeking advice, bringing cigarettes and alcohol with him.
Over time, even the hardest heart can be melted, let alone an old man like Mi Qingsong who is inherently warm-hearted.
Upon hearing Wang Tianxiao's suggestion, he immediately patted his chest and said that he would introduce resources to Wang Tianxiao and definitely help him sell them.
He felt it was his duty to support the development of his hometown's resources.
According to the growth cycle, it will be ready for harvest in about three months. Wang Tianxiao seemed to see golden or silvery-white flowers dancing in the wind all over the mountains.
I felt incredibly happy.
As Wang Tianxiao became increasingly busy, it became impossible for him to personally deliver items to the Wenyuan Hotel.
Zhang Wenyuan now arranges for someone to come and collect it regularly.
Moreover, their orders have shifted from random to planned.
The hotel can specify what they need, and we will try our best to accommodate their requests.
The hotel settles its accounts monthly, and with the deer blood wine, it earns five to six thousand yuan each month.
Wang Tianxiao deposited all the money into a savings bank, and his wife kept the passbook.
He works hard outside to provide a stable life for his wife, so that she can hold her head high in front of others.
I gave my wife the money to manage, and she was in charge of all the expenses at the station, including everyone's salary. This allowed her to participate in my affairs, and the fact that she controlled the money gave her a great sense of security.
Wang Tianxiao was originally responsible for forest protection, but now that there are golden pheasants circling in the mountains, and Wu Wenhua and his dogs in the middle, no one dares to do anything, so he hardly has to worry about this aspect of the work.
It's just that I need to report to the Ziwuling station every quarter.
Wang Tianxiao also devoted a lot of energy to the Wenyuan prefabrication plant.
Once the factory was set up, many of the old problems still lingered.
There are always some people who are still stuck in their carefree past and don't take the new boss and new rules seriously. So, to get rid of these stubborn problems without making all employees rebellious, it takes some effort.
The prefabrication plant is now in the management of Zhang Wenyuan's brother-in-law, who is also a rather shrewd fellow.
