It has been some time since the establishment of Youran Farm Agricultural Products Company, but currently there is no substantial business except for its subsidiary vegetable base.
The three rooms on the second floor of the south store that Aunt Qi was asked to vacate, including the sun room, are still empty and have not been used for any purpose.
Especially for the larger sunroom, Feng Daniu was arranged to purchase several office desks, file cabinets, fax and copy multi-function machines, and air conditioning was also installed. It looked like a real thing, almost like an office building.
Li Youran felt that it was a pity to continue like this. After thinking about it, he decided to move the financial office and his office there.
The two cabins on the second floor of the south store correspond exactly to each other. As for the sunroom, let Assistant Sun work there. Who asked her to also serve as the office director? However, she is currently studying more heavily, and she also has a daytime shift in administrative management.
Classes have started, and I guess I won’t spend too much time in the sunroom. This is also my intention, let the little girl focus on her studies for the time being.
So with the help of the logistics department guy, it took a whole day to move and pack up.
Li Youran occupies the north room in the corridor, next to the finance room. Gu Weiwei currently serves as the financial director, accountant and cashier of the bun shop, the restaurant, and the agricultural products company. She has great powers and responsibilities. Of course.
This is not formal, but it can only be subdivided after the company develops.
As for the original office and financial room, they were merged and restored into a warehouse to store some items that were not commonly used in the store.
This morning, Aunt Qi and Sun Xiaoying came to Li Youran's new office together and said they had something to discuss.
Li Youran felt a little strange, because it was rare to see the two of them together, so there must be something important. He asked the two of them to fill their own water glasses, and then sat on the sofa and talked slowly.
"Boss Ranzi, it's like this. There is a small food supermarket across the road from our bun shop that is closed. I was wondering if we should take it down?" Aunt Qi said.
"Are you talking about the Xinxin Food Supermarket opposite... I know, why, it can't continue to operate?" Li Youran is already familiar with the surrounding environment, so he naturally knows which store it is.
"Yeah... I heard that it was due to poor management and I lost a lot of money. The lease term of the house is coming soon, and the boss has decided to quit. I went to see the store. The business area on the first floor is more than 30 square meters.
It can also be used as a warehouse and a place to live, and the structure inside is pretty good. I heard that the landlord doesn’t have much money... and is in a hurry to rent out the house. The rent won’t be too high," Aunt Qi continued.
“The location is really good and easy to take care of.
However, do you want to expand the business scale of Baozi Shop? The raw material supply problem has not been solved yet, and we do not have the ability to open branches for the time being." Li Youran thought that the vegetable fields in the suburbs have not produced yet, and even if they did, the size of the vegetable fields would be very large.
It's not that big either. It will not be easy to top up the current supply in the store in the next few months.
"Brother Youran...we don't want to open a branch of Baozi Shop, we want to open a shaved ice shop." Sun Xiaoying directly put forward their idea.
I see, needless to say... this must be the little girl's idea. It seems that she is addicted to eating the ice cubes, and it is too troublesome to make it by herself. The purpose of setting up a shaved ice shop is probably to be close to the water.
"Xiaoying, I just want to make it easier for you to satisfy your craving." Li Youran said with a smile.
"Who said that? I was also thinking about the store. On such a hot day, selling shaved ice would definitely be a good business." Sun Xiaoying was very dissatisfied when she saw Brother Youran looking down on her.
"Yeah... Xiaoying is right. To the west of Antai Street, there are two cold drink shops selling shaved ice. I have tasted both. The taste is far worse than what we make in our store, but the business is still very hot. Specialties
The supply of vegetables has been tight... I have known this for a long time, and it is definitely not the right time to open a branch of Baozi Shop. But the shaved ice shop is different. You don’t need those things, as long as there is water, and other materials can be readily available on the market. Who let me
The special water in our backyard is so good, everything you cook is delicious. In addition, the cost of opening a shaved ice shop is not high. In terms of equipment, the main thing is to purchase two shaved ice machines, a smoothie machine, a freezer and an air conditioner.
In terms of rent, decoration, model production, etc., the investment is only about a hundred thousand yuan, but the profit is actually very considerable. In addition, we not only make shaved ice, but also make smoothies, which is more profitable." Qi.
Auntie said in an orderly manner, obviously having done market research beforehand.
So that's it. Li Youran stood up from the office chair, walked to the window, and looked at the Xinxin Food Store across the road.
The space and land are small, and the crop production is limited. But the stream is different. It flows like this every day, and it is wasted if it is not used. And since I have integrated with Pixiu, it is now very convenient to fill the water tank. All you need to do is leave a mark at the inspection port.
With a little space, you can even control the jade Pixiu to fly into the water tank directly from the stairwell window in the bedroom, and you don't have to worry about draining the water. It's more efficient than a remote-controlled model airplane.
Of course, the current water output per unit time of Pixiu seems to have reached its limit and cannot be increased. This is normal. After all, the flow rate of the space stream is not high in the first place, and it is not a big river.
Well, it seems that you can consider opening an ice cream shop to increase your sideline income.
"Opening a shaved ice shop is indeed a good idea. Everyone loves to eat it in summer. But have you ever thought about what to do when the weather gets cold? Especially in winter, we can't always sell shaved ice." Li Youran thought of a new problem.
"Hey, Brother Youran, you are so stubborn. In winter, we only sell hot drinks, pearl milk tea, hot juice, etc. Our water is good, so we will definitely be good at making those things." Sun Xiaoying also obviously considered it.
These things have passed.
Oh, that's true. There's no need to be ingenious, just follow the mature products on the market. Who told us to have good water?
In addition, there are still many problems regarding dairy products. It is easy for me to just not drink them. But since I want to open a store, I have to meet the needs of the public. I am afraid that this stuff is indispensable in the products. It seems that I can only trust the relevant departments.
I believe there are very few branded milk factories left in the market that have not had any problems so far.
Having made up his mind, Li Youran told Aunt Qi and Sun Xiaoying that he agreed to open a store. The specific matters would be discussed next.
"What's the name of the shaved ice shop? Or should it be called Youran Farm Shaved Ice Shop after the bun shop?" Li Youran asked.
When Sun Xiaoying heard this, she covered her mouth with her hands and was very happy.
"Brother Xi Ran, you are so funny, farm shaved ice shop, hehe."
Aunt Qi thought about it and couldn't help but smile.
"Why is it bad? This name is so simple." Li Youran was a little annoyed.
"People thought they were raising cattle, hee hee. I have already thought of the name, and it will be called Xiaoying Ice World." Sun Xiaoying unceremoniously took over the power of naming.
"Hey, you little girl is addicted to naming. Also, what a big place, let's call it Ice World." Li Youran felt that this name was exaggerated.
"What's the matter? A ten-square-meter shoe store on the street is called Leather Shoe City. This is fashionable now." Sun Xiaoying thought it was strange that the other party was so rare.
"Of course, I also think Xiaoying Ice World is better than the farm shaved ice shop. Shaved ice is different from steamed buns. Most of the consumers are young people, and they have to pay attention to fashion and so on." Aunt Qi sided with Sun Xiaoying.
Li Youran thought for a while, forget it, leave it to her, it's just a name.
"Then who will take care of it? Xiaoying can't do it. She has a very heavy study load now and has to be an assistant in an agricultural product company." Li Youran asked.
"I suggest that Zhao Xiuer come over. She is handsome, young, and has good rapport with customers. She has been a foreman for such a long time, so her experience is not bad." Aunt Qi's study during this period has not been in vain, and her speaking skills are good.
"Well, Zhao Xiu'er is okay. Zheng Yan has just been promoted to deputy hall manager. Let the young couple work together to make progress together this time." Li Youran nodded in approval.
"Brother Youran, what are you talking about? We are not married yet." Sun Xiaoying corrected his mistake.
Aunt Qi was also happy.
"Hey, isn't that coming soon? I see that boy Zheng Yan is making some moves. Forget it, let's not talk about that. Also, what about the product design? Shaved ice is different from steamed buns. They are very particular about appearance, so they have to
Just get a lot of varieties." Li Youran asked the actual question.
Sun Xiaoying turned around and took out a folder, pulled out a pile of papers and handed it to Li Youran.
Li Youran took a look and saw that they were all exquisite pictures of various fancy shaved ices, which looked tempting. These pictures should have been downloaded and printed from the Internet.
It seems that these two people have taken everything into consideration and have made sufficient preparations. Wow, it saves me some worry.
So, Boss Xiao Li simply delegated power and let Aunt Qi make the decision, Sun Xiaoying helped, and he also invited the accounting director Gu, and let the three women handle the affairs of the shaved ice shop. He was free and did not care.
****************************
In the vegetable base of Tonghezi Village, the first batch of cabbage seedlings are still growing rapidly. In a few days, they have grown to 20 centimeters tall. They are green, graceful and look as beautiful as handicrafts.
Although Li Shuanzhu and several of his subordinates were surprised by this matter, after seeing the precedent of vegetable seedlings sprouting, they gradually became a little bit surprised. After all, it was a product of a high-tech agricultural company, and it was nothing strange to be different from ordinary cabbage.
When the cabbage seedlings grow to this height, they can be transplanted and planted. Other vegetable seedlings must be planted in the nursery field covered by the shading net.
The irrigation ditches related to the vegetable base have been dredged and the river water has been introduced.
According to the requirements, the cabbage seedlings will be irrigated alternately with river water and groundwater after they are planted. I bought a water pump two days ago, installed and debugged it, and can use it normally.
In addition, boss Xiao Li called and said that he had contacted someone from the drip irrigation equipment factory and that they would be coming to install the drip irrigation system soon, so Li Shuanzhu could prepare for it.
