Chapter 42-Returning Home to Start a Business
The next morning, Lei Dongbao sat on his leather sofa, feeling a little conflicted.
Song Yunping brought over two bowls of noodles with poached eggs on top to make Dong Bao breakfast. She said,"Dong Bao, are you annoyed by what Shigen said yesterday?”
Lei Dongbao nodded slightly and said,"The people of Little Lei's family seem to be getting worse."”
"Xiao Lei's family treated you so badly back then. Are you still going to help them?" Song Yunping said unhappily.”
"No matter what, I grew up in Little Lei's family…" Lei Dongbao said with some difficulty.
"Aren't you afraid that it'll be like in the past? After everyone makes money, they'll feel that it's unfair and poke at your spine every day?”Song Yunping picked up the black bean chili sauce and poured it into the noodles to mix well.
"In the past, I was helping the group, so I couldn't do many things freely. This time, if I were the boss of a private company, the trouble would definitely be much less.”
Lei Dongbao had thought about it all night last night. He thought that if he was the boss, as long as he paid his salary on time, they would not say anything about how much he could earn. If anyone dared to gossip behind his back again, they would just fire him.
Song Yunping mixed the noodles and handed them to Dong Bao. She said gently,""Eat the noodles first. When it's burnt later, I'll support you no matter what you decide.”
Lei Dongbao looked at the quiet and gentle Pingping. He thought about how Pingping had been standing behind him, firmly supporting and encouraging him during the time he made money, lost money, went to Beijing, and returned to his hometown. His heart felt warm.
" Thank you, Pingping. All these years..." Lei Dongbao suddenly said gently.
"We're already an old couple, what's there to thank?" Song Yunping smiled. Mom brought this over yesterday. I smell it very fragrant.”
Lei Dongbao said rather proudly," Of course! Everyone who has tried our Little Lei's chilli from all over the country says that it's good. It's spicy and fragrant. When it's made into chili sauce, the taste is simply superb! Unfortunately, it's hard to eat in Beijing."
Xiao Lei's family was located in the Yangtze River basin. The local climate was warm and humid, with four distinct seasons. The soil contained a variety of trace elements. The chili produced by the village was indeed more delicious than other villages due to the soil and water.
Song Yunping smiled." The next time we go back to Beijing, I'll ask Mom to make more. Just put it in a bottle and bring it over."”
Lei Dongbao took two bites of the noodles. The chili was as fresh and salty as before. He looked at the bright red chili in his bowl and suddenly thought of a good idea to start a business.
In his previous life, a national chili sauce brand appeared in the mountainous areas of Guizhou. It was called Lao Gan Ma. It relied on chili sauce to get on the market! The annual production value and profits were extremely shocking.
This kind of canned chili sauce was not yet popular. If he could improve the chili sauce from Little Lei's family and make it into a branded and industrialized chili sauce, wouldn't the places where chili was eaten all over the country become his market?
At that time, not to mention the unemployed young men in Ray's family, even the unemployed young men in the entire county could work in his own factory!
As long as Xiao Lei's chili sauce tasted good and the advertisement was loud, there would definitely be no problem with sales. In the future, there might not be any old godmother.
Thinking of this, Lei Dongbao was excited. He immediately ran to Shigen's house and discussed his thoughts with Shigen.
Shigen had been in the village all his life and had never seen the world. He did not know about sealed cans at all, let alone the grand goal of branding and selling them nationwide.
"You want Lei's family to help you plant chili and make chili sauce?" Shigen asked with a blank expression.”
"Yes, I plan to open a processing factory in the county. When the time comes, Fourth Treasure, Fifth Brother, and the others can work in my factory.”Lei Dongbao already had a preliminary plan.
"Open a factory? How much would that cost? The county's economy is tight now. I don't think they'll approve our Lei family's loan.”Shigen said worriedly.
"There's no need for the collective money. I'll pay for it myself. I'm not the secretary of Xiao Lei's family now.”Lei Dongbao said.
Shigen thought for a moment and said," That's fine. As long as you can help us solve the employment problem of the people in the village, it doesn't matter to me whether we gather or not." But Dong Bao…do you have enough money now? If not, can I lend you a few thousand?"
Shigen said kindly when he saw that Dong Bao's family had just built a villa. It would probably cost a lot of money to open a factory.
Lei Dongbao smiled and shook his head." No need. I've earned some money in Beijing these few years. When my factory is built, just help me promote it in the village."”
Although Lei Dongbao had lost some money because of the tourism company, his savings over the years and the border trade company had been receiving money. He still had more than 5 million yuan in his hands.
It was more than enough to open a food processing plant.
After returning home, Lei Dongbao simply wrote down the process of what to do next on a piece of paper.
First of all, he had to ensure the supply of raw materials. He had to spend more money to rent some land at Ray's house and hire someone to plant chili peppers. With his relationship with Shigen, this problem was easy to solve.
Then, he had to confirm the location and size of the factory. It would be best if it was in the county. It had to be large and have a dormitory building. That way, the people from the surrounding villages could still live in the factory when they came to work. Tomorrow, he would go to the county to ask Secretary Chen if there were any food factories that were transferred.
After confirming the formula, the taste and hygiene had to be guaranteed. This was the most important step in branding.
The last step was to open up the sales channels. Only then would they be able to produce practical benefits.
Lei Dongbao had made a preliminary plan in the study. When he returned to the bedroom, Pingping was reading a book sideways. Her back was a little thin, and her long black hair hung like a waterfall on the pillow, revealing her snow-white neck.
Lei Dongbao gently took off his clothes and lay down behind Pingping. He wrapped his arms around her waist and began to swim up and down restlessly.
Song Yunping turned around and kissed Lei Dongbao's stubbled cheek with a smile. Then she turned off the lamp shyly. Even though they had been married for many years, the two of them were still as sweet as newlyweds at night.
