"Nan Yi, are you at home?"
The gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and a head was leaning against the screen wall, looking into the courtyard.
"Wei Zong, is it your turn to take a vacation again?"
"Yeah, you know what the situation is now. Our mission is not as heavy as before, and we can basically go out and play on weekends."
Chen Weizong walked into the yard and sat opposite Nan Yi.
"You came just in time. I plan to go to Haiyang in a few days. If you have anything to send back home, I can help you take it over."
Chen Jizong waved his hands and said, "There's nothing to bring. My family usually sends me things, but I don't have anything to bring home. What are you going there for?"
"Nothing, I heard there are a lot of good things over there, I want to go over and broaden my horizons."
Upon hearing Nan Yi's words, Chen Jizong's face suddenly became colorful. After a pause, he said, "When you go to Haiyang, you'd better be careful. Our place is not peaceful. There is a saying about the three major ethnic groups in Guangdong Province. I wonder if you have heard of it."
"Cantonese salon, Chaoshan angry man, Hakka charlatan?"
"Yes, the Cantonese people live in the richest central area of ​​Guangdong Province, and they are born to be local landlords; the Hakka people like to be officials, and many of them are high-ranking officials;
We Chaoshan people don’t rely on anything but adventure and hard work. We also like to do business, and many Chaoshan big businessmen have emerged abroad.”
"I know that there is a very rich man named Li in Xiangkeng, who is from Chaoshan. There are also several rich people from your area. And there is also a very famous inspector, whose surname is Lu, right?"
"Yes, these are Chaoshan people. Many people in our area are robbing now, and they are very ruthless. Nan Yi, if you accidentally mess with them, you may easily lose your life there."
Nan Yi laughed, "Hearing what you said, I'm almost scared to death. Otherwise, I'd better not go."
"Haha, I'm being serious. If you just go there to play, it's not a big deal. Just don't look at what you shouldn't look at, and don't listen to what you shouldn't listen to. You can go to my house to meet my dad first, and ask him to ask someone to accompany you out for a walk."
"Oh, from what you said, your dad is still a big shot in your place?"
"To be honest, he is quite an important figure. You will know when you meet him at my house."
Chen Weizong didn't say it directly, which made Nan Yi guess that Chen Weizong's father was most likely a village chief and also the clan leader or something.
When it comes to ancestral hall atmosphere, Chaoshan ranks second, and no other place in the country dares to claim to be first.
Nan Yi inquired: "Wei Zong, I only know that you are from Jieshi Town, but I don't know which village you are from."
"Nanchen Village, it seems there is also a Beichen Village in Hu Jian's area, which is the same branch as ours. Our branch moved to Haiyang a thousand years ago."
"Oh, if I really go there, the first thing I will do is visit your father in your village."
"Okay, tell me before you leave and I'll call you back. Let's not talk about this for now. I have a rare day off, so accompany me to the city for a walk."
"Okay, you walked here?"
"Um."
"Then I'll go borrow a tractor and we'll drive it."
"That's great. I'll drive it."
…
"Yaodong, it's been two days since Nan Yi came back. Usually he would have a meeting the next day after he came back. Why didn't he make any movement this time? Does he have any opinion about us?"
Village committee, Xian Yaohua said to Xian Yaodong.
"Don't make blind guesses. What can he have any objection to? The garment factory is doing well. Since the release of Love in Lushan, sales have been increasing. The factory is so busy that they can't keep up with the overtime work. Even if there are any new plans, there is no need to implement them at this critical juncture."
"The garment factory is fine, but the food factory's machines have all been shipped back, but there is no progress at all. He hasn't said what to do."
"Well, he mentioned to me that we should make hawthorn slices and fruit leather first. The raw materials are all hawthorns, which are not yet ripe. At the beginning of next month, we can send people out to harvest hawthorns."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? We're leaving at the beginning of next month, so we need to make arrangements earlier." Xian Yaohua scolded, then walked out of the village committee and went to the village to look for someone.
Nan Yi once told Xian Yaodong that he had other things to do this year and could not take care of the village business for the time being, so he let him handle it on his own.
In fact, Nan Yi was waiting for something to happen.
Since the second half of last year, the number of chickens, ducks and geese raised in the area around Wenchangwei has increased rapidly. Nan Yi found out that the number of raised chickens, ducks and geese has increased dramatically in the entire Guangdong Province and even the whole country.
As the number increases and the breeding density increases, the probability of chicken plague will also be higher.
Nan Yi was just waiting for the chicken plague to break out in Wenchangwei.
As long as Wenchangwei's development route does not deviate significantly and before the outbreak of chicken plague causes heavy losses to the villagers, he will not care about the village affairs for the time being.
After spending a day in the city with Chen Weizong, Nan Yi stayed at home for the next two days. On the third day, he took Zuo Can to the Swallowtail Butterfly Clothing Factory in Dongzhu.
The factory in Dongzhun is now managed by Zheng Wenqi. When Nan Yi arrived, she was already waiting outside the factory gate.
"Master Nan."
"Secretary Zheng, you don't have to call me Young Master. This title is not popular in the mainland. You can just call me Nan Yi."
"Okay, Nansheng, shall I take you to the workshop?"
"No hurry, tell me the situation first."
"We sold 13,000 pieces of our Xu Wenqiang style windbreaker in Hong Kong, 4,000 pieces in Macau, and a little more in Taiwan, with 19,000 pieces sold. It has not been aired in Southeast Asia yet, so there is no sales volume yet.
According to my estimation, we can sell about 20,000 pieces, which is the limit. When this wave of popularity passes, our windbreaker sales will definitely slow down.”
"I know that. Xu Wenqiang's windbreaker was originally made to take advantage of the popularity of the TV series. It is only natural that the hot sales cannot last long. How much gross profit do we have now?"
"Not a lot, a little over HK$1.6 million."
"Yes!" Nan Yi nodded and organized his words, "Secretary Zheng, I have divided the development of the swallowtail butterfly into two aspects.
First, this factory in Dongguan has gradually expanded and undertaken clothing processing business overseas.
The mainland now has a huge advantage in labor costs. European and American clothing companies can save a large part of production costs by entrusting production tasks to us, and we can also earn huge processing profits.
We will start by doing clothing processing for a few years, and then gradually expand to shoes. Whether it is leather shoes or several famous international sports shoe brands, we can win the processing business.
In this way, we can earn a lot of foreign exchange. Dongguan will definitely like the foreign exchange taxes we pay to the finance and taxation department. It will also give us preferential treatment and help in policies and recruitment.
Moreover, OEM requires a large number of workers, and we can also provide many jobs to the society and ease domestic employment conflicts.
2. Separate the Swallowtail Butterfly Clothing Company in Xiangkeng and turn it into an independent company.
We will recruit potential fashion designers with high salaries to create our own high-end clothing brand. The company will only do the design, and the pattern making and production work can be handed over to the factories in the mainland. "
Zheng Wenqi said: "Nansheng, it is not easy to build a high-end clothing brand."
