827: How can I refuse such a good thing?
Sunday came in a flash.
Early that morning, Yu Xiaoye came from the compound to find her elder brother, and set off with her elder brother to the dormitory of Peking University and Tsinghua University to find her classmate Kuang Daming from the Department of Chemical Engineering. The three of them set off together to Kuang Daming's home in the suburbs of Beijing.
Originally, Zhou Ziheng said he would drive them there, so he wanted to go along and see for himself how his wife's career started.
But Yu Xiaoye felt that asking Zhou Ziheng to drive there was an overreaction and did not let him go. So the three of them rode two bicycles for an hour and finally arrived at Kuang Daming’s hometown: Da Kuang Village.
Dakuang Village is located at the foot of a mountain. Although it is called a mountain, it is actually just a small hill. There are not many people here. Stone houses are scattered irregularly at the foot of the mountain, and some are halfway up the mountain.
When they got there, they went straight to Kuang Daming's house.
Kuang Damin fully supports the idea of jointly opening a breeding farm.
He received much more information in school than in the village, and his horizons were broader. He knew that starting a business in partnership was a good choice now. If he could persuade the village chief's father to start a breeding farm with Yu Xiaoye, it would definitely benefit the villagers.
It can solve the employment problem of the village population and increase the income of the villagers.
There is no reason to refuse such a good thing.
So when he heard about Yu Xiaoye's plan, he was very enthusiastic to help with the contact.
When we arrived at Kuang Damin's house, we found Kuang Damin's father, Kuang Fatada.
Kuang Fadada is a man in his fifties, thin and capable with dark skin. When he heard that his son's classmates came to him to start a factory together, he was a little reluctant to believe it. He looked at his son with distrust, always feeling that his son was colluding with outsiders to deceive him.
When his son said that the village did not need to contribute a penny to set up the factory, Kuang Fadada's attitude immediately changed.
Is it possible to open a factory without the village having to contribute any money?
Seeing that Kuang Fadada seemed interested, Yu Xiaoye explained the details of setting up a breeding farm, saying that she would invest the money, and the village would be responsible for providing the site and building the chicken coop. If necessary, they would also provide a few workers, and the workers would all be paid.
The later profits were divided into 30% and 70%, with the village taking 30% and she taking 70%.
And she has the management and decision-making power over the farm.
Kuang Fatada thought about it and felt it was a good deal. The main reason was that he didn't have to invest any money. He only needed to provide a piece of land and help build a farm. The cost was not much. There were many idle people in the village, so building a farm was no problem. It could also provide the idle people in the village with a job that paid wages. I'm sure everyone in the village would welcome it with open arms.
And you can get money directly from the field later.
For them, it's like getting something for nothing.
How can I refuse such a good thing?
This is simply pie in the sky!
Besides, his own son also advised him to do so. His own son shouldn’t betray him, right?
So Kuang Fatada agreed without much hesitation.
After Kuang Fadada agreed, Yu Xiaoye said that the procedures for setting up a breeding farm would be handled by the village, and they had to inform the higher authorities and obtain the approval of the commune in order for the breeding farm to be legal and compliant.
Because at that time they will definitely have to buy feed from the grain station. If the commune does not approve, they will have no formal way to buy feed, and the chickens will starve to death. This is also one of the reasons for partnering with the village to start a business. Without legal and compliant state-owned or village-run qualifications, individual factories cannot even buy the most basic production raw materials.
Kuang Fadada readily agreed to this request:
"Okay, I'll go and say hello to the commune. I'm sure they'll be happy for us to do this."
"Okay, then. Once the farm is established, my eldest brother will be the director and you will be the deputy director. Is that okay with you?"
"No problem. It doesn't matter who is the chief or the deputy."
"Okay, then I'll go back and draw up a contract. Let's formally sign a written contract. From now on, no matter what happens, we'll follow the contract. It's a guarantee for both you and me."
"I understand. Signing and signing a contract makes me feel more confident if you put it that way."
Yu Xiaoye didn't expect that the conversation with Village Chief Kuang would go so smoothly. It seems that Village Chief Kuang is a man of some brains. He knows how to seize opportunities, keep pace with the times, and can truly seek benefits for the villagers. He is a qualified village chief.
After the discussion, Kuang Fadada took them to the nearby mountains to look for a suitable venue.
Yu Zhengxian took a look and felt that the conditions here were definitely not as good as the dense forests in the Great Northern Wilderness. There were not as many trees and grass, but it should be no problem to run a deer farm, and all the animals could be raised artificially.
Finally, Yu Zhengxian marked out a piece of land and decided to build a breeding farm here. He would cut down the nearby trees, surround it, and build a few small houses inside to serve as dormitories and warehouses.
Kuang Fatada lost no time in asking:
"How many workers can the farm recruit? In our village, there are at least 70 or 80 people who can come here to work."
Yu Xiaoye said:
"Uncle Kuang, our farm is small at the beginning, so we don't need that many people for now. I estimate that two or three people will be enough in the early stage."
"Hiss, only two or three, isn't that a bit too few? With only these two or three spots, who should I give them to? There are hundreds of laborers in our village, including women. If I give this one and not that one, others will definitely say that I, as the village chief, am biased. You're giving me a hard time. How about giving me a few more spots?"
Yu Xiaoye smiled:
"Uncle Kuang, I don't need so many people. If you force them on me, I'll have to pay them even if there's no work for them. Our farm will be the one that loses money, right? Now is not the time to eat from the same pot. We have to calculate the costs of running a factory. We can't afford to keep so many idle people."
"That's true."
"Uncle Kuang, how about I give you an idea? Didn't you say that there are too few places to divide? Why don't you divide the three places among them?"
"What do you mean? How do we break them up?"
"That's right. I'm hiring these three people. Each of them will work thirty days a month, for a total of ninety days. I'll pay them one yuan a day for the ninety days, for a total of ninety yuan.
You break up the 90 days' work into 30 parts. We will recruit 30 people at a time, each for 3 days.
We work all day shifts and each person will get three dollars at the end of the month. What do you think?
This should be fair, right? Feeding chickens doesn't require any technical skills, and everyone can do it. So every family will get one.
If someone doesn't want to come, they can take the initiative to give the day's work to someone else, and there will definitely be someone willing to earn this dollar."
"Is this okay?"
Kuang Fatada, Kuang Damin and Yu Zhengxian were all shocked. They didn't expect the problem could be solved in this way.
Yu Xiaoye said:
"Didn't you say there weren't enough spots? This is just another solution. I don't want to make things difficult for you in the village."
Kuang Fatada couldn't help but give a thumbs up:
"My dear, you have a really good brain. You can even think of this! Now that you put it this way, things will be easier."
"But Uncle Kuang, this is just temporary. I'll definitely have to adjust in the future. I can't keep doing this. Also, I have to be frank with you. If anyone comes here and doesn't work hard, and slacks off like they did in the production team before, he won't be allowed to come anymore. If he does the wrong job, he won't be allowed to come again.
Also, if someone causes losses to the farm, compensation must be paid.
You need to make this clear to everyone in advance to avoid arguments later."
