Li Jianguo finished reading it and said, "It looks simple. What kind of sausage is used for sausage casings? How are sausage casings made?"
"The casings are made from pig intestines, but that's not important. The most important thing is to buy the machines to make these products. There are none in China, so I plan to buy them abroad.
This is a key reason why the food factory has adopted a shareholding system. Purchasing production lines abroad requires substantial capital, so each of us shareholders will contribute a corresponding amount of capital based on our shareholding. Wen Wenming explained that they are currently short of funds.
Li Jianguo scratched his head and said nothing. He wondered how Lijiawan could come up with the money. The village didn't have much money. Purchasing a production line abroad would require a huge amount of capital. Lijiawan simply couldn't come up with that.
Lu Zhao said without hesitation, "How much money does the Vice President need? Just tell me when the time comes."
Wenwen nodded and said, "I plan to go abroad in the first half of next year. I will definitely write a perfect plan for you before then."
Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows, "Doesn't that mean we need to build a new factory? The current food factory is just a processing workshop."
"Yes," Wenwen continued, "The food factory needs to expand, and I've already decided on a location. It's near the pharmaceutical factory. They've already approved a lot of land and reserved space for the food factory."
Li Jianguo thought to himself that in recent years, Lijiawan had only built houses, a pharmaceutical factory, and a standardized village, which was under construction, and had begun to expand the food factory.
"We can only recruit workers from other villages to build the food factory. The villagers of Lijiawan are too busy now," Li Jianguo suggested.
Wenwen nodded. "This time the food factory is looking for someone from another village. Village chief, please take care of this matter."
Li Jianguo waved his hand. "It's a small matter. I'll ask the foreman tomorrow. It's definitely the right thing to ask them in this line of work."
Wenwen handed the design drawings to Li Jianguo. "It would be best if we could find the design drawings for the food factory area. The workers and foremen who built the pharmaceutical factory last time will also need to deal with wastewater discharge. They'll understand it better if they've done it themselves."
Li Jianguo took the blueprint and thought it was really beautiful. "Okay, I'll ask the foreman to find out. If we can come to Lijiawan to build the house, the workers will be very happy."
Lijiawan paid high wages and had good food. The workers who built the pharmaceutical factory were reluctant to leave and said that Lijiawan was the best employer they had ever met.
Wenwen looked around at everyone and asked, "Does everyone have any objections to the shareholding system we discussed today?"
Several shareholders shook their heads and said no.
"Well, since all shareholders have no objections, please sign the shareholder agreement here." She took out a document and said, "Everyone should carefully read the rules and regulations above. If you have any objections, please feel free to raise them."
Each shareholder has a document, and Wenwen signs and seals his or her own document.
After seeing that everyone had signed their names, she took out another copy and said, "This is the document from the shareholders recommending me as the decision-maker. Take a look."
Lü Zhao pointed to one clause: "Evaluate the shareholder's role in the company, such as whether they participate in daily management, provide expertise or resources, etc. Salary levels are determined based on their contribution."
"There are three shareholders in the food factory, and I'm the decision-maker. I have to manage a lot of things in the factory, which is like the more you work, the more you earn. However, we still have to consider the company's financial situation and profitability to ensure that the shareholders' wages match the company's operating results." Wenwen patiently explained to them.
The clause about paying salaries to shareholders is a must. What she heard most in her later life was that they talked about it openly with friends at a dinner table, and the clause about paying salaries to shareholders was not written into the contract from the beginning.
If dividends are only distributed according to shareholders, conflicts will eventually arise because some shareholders contribute more, for example, some shareholders have to manage the company, but they receive the same dividends as shareholders who do not manage the company. After a long time, they will feel unbalanced, and the company will fall apart, and they will not even be able to be friends anymore.
Lu Zhao admired the girl very much. She thought of everything very carefully and thoroughly. "I have no objection to this. This is what we should do. Write everything down clearly so that there will be no conflicts in the future."
Everyone agreed and signed the document.
Wenwen patted his forehead and said to Li Jianguo, "Village head, I forgot one thing. I didn't include it in the calculation and omitted the commune."
Li Jianguo finally remembered, "Yes, I really hadn't thought about it. I'll give some of the shares in Lijiawan to the commune. How much do you think we should give?"
Wenwen touched his chin and thought for a while. When it was a small workshop, it was not like this. The pharmaceutical factory just took a small share from the commune. But now the pharmaceutical factory is a state-owned enterprise, and the commune can't get involved. The only thing it can do is let the food factory take some money.
"Just 2% should be enough. The food factory didn't make a profit that quickly in the early stages, but the commune can't take nothing. Village chief, you need to discuss this with the commune."
Doing this is just to make the people in charge of the commune feel comfortable. Although everyone knows about the Lijiawan incident and the commune dare not put a stranglehold on them, they still have to give them the face they deserve.
Li Jianguo responded, "Okay, I'll find time to go to the town and report to the leaders."
To be honest, the town leaders have no control over Lijiawan now. Lijiawan is now developing independently and is the village with the best economic development in Quanfuhe Town. The town leaders have never dared to interfere in Lijiawan's affairs.
Xiao Heng looked at the shareholders of the food factory and said, "Since the food factory is going to expand, shareholders, do you want to give it a name?"
Li Jianguo agreed, "Yes, the food factory has decided to expand and build a factory building, so we must give it a more resounding name. Just like the pharmaceutical factory, Renxin Pharmaceutical Factory sounds so good, our food factory's name can't be too bad."
The other shareholders all looked at Wenwen eagerly. Seeing this, Wenwen rubbed his forehead and thought to himself, I am just a bad namer, and the name of the pharmaceutical factory was not chosen by me.
Wenwen looked at the Lu family father and son, "Have you heard of the name of Lijiawan in Jing City?"
Lu Jun gave a thumbs-up and said, "Lijiawan is so famous. I guess everyone in the country knows Lijiawan."
Wenwen clapped her hands after hearing this and said, "Let's call the food factory Lijiawan Food Factory. How great! Lijiawan is now a household name. We don't even need to advertise. Lijiawan itself has an advertising effect."
After hearing this, several people fell silent, thinking to themselves that it wasn't Lijiawan that had the advertising effect, but the miracle doctor and his apprentice that had the advertising effect.
Seeing that they were silent, Wenwen said, "It's decided. Lijiawan Food Factory. Next, we need to talk about the initial investment. Isn't the factory going to be expanded? Expansion definitely requires money, so each shareholder will advance a little money."
The other shareholders nodded: "That's what we should do."
Li Jianguo, who was the largest but also the poorest, almost scratched his head and asked, "How much is it?"
Wenwen knew that Li Jianguo was anxious. "Each shareholder can invest 20,000 yuan. We can build it as we go along. We don't have to complete the expansion all at once. We also need to keep the funds for buying equipment."
Li Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief and decided to have a good talk with the vice president after the meeting.
