Chapter 98 Going to North City!
Yan Huiqi's husband is indeed reliable.
After knowing what Yan Ruo meant, he immediately went to find his cousin and helped Yan Ruo negotiate a good price.
After hearing the quote, Yan Ruo was surprised. It was even lower than what she had told Zhou Jiannan at the beginning.
However, she was not in a hurry to make a decision, but asked someone to inquire about it.
After Zhou Jiannan heard about it, he called her.
[I've inquired for you, and this price is quite good. The previous quote they gave us was probably too high, considering we didn't understand the market.]
After confirming that the factory had no mortgage, no debt, and clear ownership, Yan Ruo decided to take over.
Although Yan Ruo has some money, buying this processing plant is only the first step, and there will be many other places where money will be needed later.
Fortunately, the government now encourages people to return to their hometowns to start businesses. Yan Ruo is engaged in agricultural product processing and sales, which is in line with the general trend, so he can apply for a business loan.
With Zhou Jiannan's help and Yan Huiqi's husband's familiarity with this area, the loan and transfer procedures were completed quickly.
On the day of receiving the property certificate, Yan Ru specially invited Zhou Jiannan and Yan Huiqi to dinner to express his gratitude.
Yan Huiqi's husband is called Zhang Ji. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looks decent and honest, but in fact he is smart and organized.
If he hadn't been there to guide me, many things wouldn't have gone so smoothly.
He is smart but not materialistic, and he is warm-hearted, helping to take care of everything. It is very pleasant to deal with him.
No wonder Yan Huiqi always likes to say "My husband said, my husband said", and she can't stop talking about her husband every other sentence.
Everyone was young, and they were all former classmates or alumni, so the atmosphere at the dinner table was particularly good.
After putting down his chopsticks, Zhang Ji looked at Yan Ruo and asked directly, "Are you going to manage this factory yourself? Or are you going to find someone to help you manage it?"
Although her products are selling well on her video account, Yan Ruo doesn't want to expand her business too much from the start.
Her idea was to test the waters by making only two or three products first.
Yan Ruo didn't answer but asked, "Do you have any good candidates to recommend?"
Zhang Ji admitted it openly without hesitation. "He's my uncle."
"He's been managing factories along the coast for over a decade, also in the food industry. He's very competent and experienced. If you're looking for someone to help with day-to-day management, consider him."
According to Zhang Ji, when he first entered society, it was his uncle Zhang who guided him step by step.
It’s just that Uncle Zhang is old and likes stability, so he has been helping with management in other people’s factories.
However, he relied on his youth and was bold and daring. After figuring out the way, he started working on his own.
Last year, Uncle Zhang's boss sold the factory after a failed investment. Because of his age, it was difficult to find a management position, so Uncle Zhang had no choice but to return.
Zhang Ji said helplessly, "I originally wanted my uncle to work for me, but he refused."
Yan Huiqi explained, "Uncle is a face-conscious person. He always feels that Zhang Ji assigning him a job is like giving him extra money."
Seeing Yan Ruo frowned slightly and did not agree immediately, Zhang Ji spoke immediately.
"I'm just giving you a suggestion. If you need someone to help you, my uncle is definitely the right person."
Yan Ruo frowned, but it wasn't because she was dissatisfied or wanted to refuse.
Instead, I am thinking seriously about whether I really need such a person to help.
Although she used to manage more than ten or twenty secretaries and assistants, that was completely different from factory management.
"I'll think about it carefully." He immediately added, "It's just that I'm just starting out here, and the salary can't compare to those in the coastal areas."
Zhang Ji looked relaxed and spoke with a smile.
"The salary is good. The salary here is not as good as that in the coastal areas, and I can find a familiar job at home. My uncle is so happy."
Yan Ruo didn't think about it for long before replying to Zhang Ji to ask his uncle to come to the factory to work.
After all, her factory is now just an empty shell, with old equipment and no employees. It is definitely a makeshift team.
There was too much to do and she couldn't handle it all by herself. She urgently needed an experienced person to help.
Uncle Zhang is indeed as Zhang Ji said, not only experienced but also conscientious and responsible in his work.
Knowing that Yan Ruo wanted to buy a batch of equipment but had a limited budget, he helped contact his old friends and found a batch of second-hand equipment that was 80% new.
Yan Ruo didn't have to worry about personnel recruitment and work arrangements at all.
Although we only recruited less than ten people to go to the countryside for procurement, production and processing, product packaging, transportation and delivery, the division of labor is clear and everything is in order.
In less than two months, the factory named Tianshi officially started operations.
The link under Yan Ruo’s video account is finally no longer sold in limited quantities.
But now, Yan Ruo could no longer accept the mentality of just getting by. Every time she opened her eyes, she had to feed nearly ten mouths, and the pressure was overwhelming.
Fortunately, I learned a lot when I discussed cooperation with Xunyang last time.
After production begins, the products can be directly put on the agricultural product platform they have specially opened for sale.
On Mr. Qu's side, Yan Ruo also contacted Mr. Qu's assistant, prepared samples and sent them over, hoping that they would put them in the store for trial sales.
I don’t know whether they really think highly of their products or they are just doing it for Xu Shaoyu’s sake.
Mr. Qu's assistant was very enthusiastic and said that he would make arrangements immediately after receiving the message.
Yan Ruo was not hypocritical. She didn't want to waste the boss's face. It might become ineffective at any time.
This summer, everything started to fall into place.
Relying on the fans of her video account, she not only sold the peaches she grew herself, but also helped her uncle and several neighbors sell a lot of them.
Fortunately, my sister Yan Qing came home for summer vacation.
Shooting videos, launching products, and processing online orders can all help, otherwise Yan Ruo would be too busy.
However, the summer vacation will soon be over, and without his sister's free labor, Yan Ruo will have to consider hiring one or two more people to be responsible for sales work.
When Yan Ruo received Su Qiao's wedding invitation, she was actually a little hesitant about whether to go to Beicheng.
However, she soon learned that an international agricultural products expo would be held in Beicheng in half a month.
As a newcomer to the industry, she feels this is a good learning opportunity.
It just so happened that Su Qiao's wedding was on the third day after the expo, and Yan Ru immediately decided to go to North City a week later.
However, before going to North City, we have to arrange things here first.
With Uncle Zhang in charge at the factory, we don't have to worry too much; the main part is online sales, which requires someone dedicated to manage.
Before the person was found, Lao Zhou from Nancheng called.
He said that Yan Ruo had made a major discovery in the matter he asked him to investigate!
