Chapter 260: A way to make money for Yejia Village
"Do you remember the flatbreads and pickles I had made during our last march?"
Ye Yin's eyes lit up, "You want to..."
As soon as Lin Yue started talking, he guessed her intention, "Are you planning to hand this over to the people from Yejia Village?"
"There are young people in Yejia Village who can form a transportation team. If we use Wangyue Tower as a turnover point, wouldn't that form an integrated service integrating production, transportation, and sales?"
Although the words Lin Yue said were a bit new, Ye Yin could understand them, and he couldn't help but nod in admiration!
"Your brain is really not for nothing. You figured out such a small thing in an instant!"
"I've heard everything you and the old patriarch said! So, if this thing is to be done, I plan to make every household in Yejia Village the host."
Ye Yin was a little puzzled, "Are they all the bosses?"
"Well, only when the business becomes something that is related to you or your own will everyone pay more attention to it! Isn't that right?"
"Yes! You mean to ask them all to contribute some money?"
Lin Yue is full of confidence.
"Build a food processing factory in Yejia Village, uh, a workshop, specializing in making flatbreads and pickles. The raw materials can be sourced locally, and it can also boost the development of surrounding villages. If only the people of Yejia Village become rich, those around them will surely be jealous. But if we can help them make money together and get them to participate, everyone will be happy!"
After all, no one can resist money.
"I think it's feasible!"
Ye Yin also agreed, so Lin Yue asked someone to call Liu Cheng and told him his idea.
"Set up a food workshop?"
Liu Cheng had never seen instant noodles before, so Lin Yue prepared one in advance to show him, along with pickles.
Looking at the small pancake in front of him, Liu Cheng felt a little unbelievable. Isn't it just noodles made into this shape? It doesn't seem to be very convenient!
But when he saw that it was easy to carry and that you only needed a bowl of boiling water to soak it and add pickles to eat directly, he thought it was really convenient! Moreover, he fell in love with the domineering taste!
"It's so convenient! No wonder it's called instant noodles. This thing should be easy to sell."
"Well, not only can it be used by the military, but even ordinary people can carry this thing with them when they go out, which is extremely convenient!"
"If we hand this over to the people of Yejia Village and let them invest as a village collective, it will not only drive their own development, but also help the surrounding people live a better life."
Liu Cheng was familiar with what Lin Yue said about investing, but he didn't expect that he could also set up a workshop in a village collective way. Lin Yue explained it to him.
"For example, if building this workshop requires 100 taels of silver, I will invest 60 taels, which is 60%. The remaining 40%, or 40 taels, will be paid entirely by the village. As for how much each household can contribute, it is up to them. If the workshop makes money in the future, each household will receive a corresponding dividend based on the silver they invested. If it loses money, the village will be responsible for compensation."
"Regardless of profit or loss, I am only responsible for coordinating with the village leaders. Other things like production, raw material procurement, warehousing, transportation, etc. are all handled by them. At most, I can provide some advice in the early stages."
"But there's one thing. I didn't sign the contract with an individual, but with the village. Therefore, the management of the villagers is still managed by the village head, or is it jointly supervised by everyone? I will not participate, and the dividends will be distributed by the village."
"I see!"
After Lin Yue explained it briefly, they understood that this was actually no different from an individual signing a contract, except that behind this "individual" was a villager.
"That's great! We don't have to worry about managing those people!"
After all, if you want to sign a contract with the people in a village, you have to play a supervisory role, and they don’t have that much energy!
After the three of them had discussed it, they called the old patriarch and the village chief over.
After hearing Lin Yue’s plan, the old patriarch and the village chief were extremely excited!
Unexpectedly, in less than two hours, Lin Yue already had an idea.
"Ayue, this is settled! As for how to proceed, just bring us a set of rules and I'll go talk to the villagers!"
"There's no rush, old patriarch. Since we're going to build a workshop, there are some things we need to say upfront. In the early stages, I'll be responsible for making suggestions and improving the development. Once everything in the workshop is mature, I won't interfere anymore!"
The old patriarch knew clearly in his mind that Lin Yue had given a God of Wealth to their Yejia Village, which was a great favor!
Immediately, he pulled the village chief to kneel down to Lin Yue. Lin Yue was startled and quickly supported them.
"What are you doing? Don't shorten my life!"
"Ayue, you've already repaid the kindness Yejia Village showed you and your son, but you still gave the villagers such a great gift. This is a major event that will benefit the future generations of Yejia Village! I will explain this clearly to the villagers! Moreover, when the time comes, the village will build a monument of merit in your honor, so that the future generations of Yejia Village will know who brought them good fortune!"
Lin Yue shook her head firmly, "Old Patriarch, don't build the monument of merit! I don't think it's necessary. It's enough for everyone to know it! After all, I also came from Yejia Village!"
Seeing that she was really unwilling, the old patriarch stopped talking about it, but in his heart he decided to record this important event in the family tree! The descendants of Yejia Village must remember this kindness for generations to come!
"Let's first think about where to build this workshop."
Village Chief Ye frowned and thought for a while.
"The road leading into the village is surrounded by a hillside on one side and wasteland on the other. How about building the workshop there?"
The old patriarch waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, it's too far from the village. What if some evil-minded people could sneak in and steal our skills?"
"I think it should be built at the west end of the village. Isn't there an empty lot below Ayue's house? How about building a workshop there?"
Lin Yue's eyes lit up. That location was indeed good. It was exactly what she had in mind.
"We're not afraid of being stolen. Making these pancakes isn't difficult, and someone will definitely learn from us. But we're not afraid. Our main sales channel is the military, and no one can match that!"
The old patriarch and the village chief were delighted when they heard this! They had a strong backing!
"The village wall just happens to surround that area. There's room for two rows of six-room tiled houses. Ah Yue, do you think it's big enough?"
"It's enough for now. If it's not enough in the future, we can expand it to the place the village chief mentioned."
“As for pickles, our village can start by making them collectively, and then we can use other cooperative methods later!”
Moreover, making pickles is really a simple thing as long as the ingredients are good and the basic steps are mastered.
When Liu Cheng heard that Lin Yue had a new idea, he immediately pricked up his ears.
"We can provide the production requirements for pickles. This thing does not require any technical skills. Even the elderly with limited mobility can make it. If they are willing, they can sign a contract and provide it on time, according to the quality and quantity. If they do not meet our purchasing requirements, we will not buy it!"
“Therefore, quality control is very important!”
Lin Yue spoke eloquently, and immediately explained to them in detail the general development ideas of the workshop. The old patriarch and Village Chief Ye listened with their eyes shining and nodded frequently! They admired Lin Yue's intelligence very much. We all have the same brain, but people are so different!
