Chapter 187 Don't Talk, Eat
"At least 2,000 more bottles will have to be dragged over." Huang Minghua said, "The communities in our area are quite dense, with a lot of people. Some communities even have two or three canteens, and there are many factories. I guess their canteens will also enter Hongyuan.
Soda, the cook in the cafeteria just asked me about Hongyuan soda, and it seems that he also wants to buy Hongyuan soda."
Many factories have canteens where drinks are sold.
"There is no need to consider the canteen of the garment factory. With Wang Mingde and Wang Hongjiang and his son here, and soda is my business, they will definitely not let Hongyuan Soda in the canteen." Lu Hao waved his hand, "But other factory canteens do have them.
If this is a possibility, then I will drag 2,000 bottles of soda over tomorrow."
What is demographic dividend? This is demographic dividend.
Even if Huang Minghua can only earn 5 cents from another canteen owner for a bottle of soda, the more people there are, the larger the quantity will be. 10 bottles is 5 cents, 100 bottles is 5 cents, and 1,000 bottles is 5 cents.
A canteen sells 30 bottles of soda a day, nearly 900 bottles a month.
If you come to 10 such kiosks, that's 9,000 bottles of soda. Even if you only earn 5 cents per bottle, you can earn 45 yuan a month!
If there were a little more and the number of canteens was expanded, the number would be even more terrifying!
The same principle applies to Lu Hao.
However, Lu Hao thought further. The larger the quantity, the more profit. This is the principle, but this is only an ideal model, and business is not that easy to do.
Some things are always just a tiny bit away, just "almost", but they can't be touched, and they can't be touched to the end. It's not that enjoyable, and it's a pity.
Now, residents of several surrounding communities want to buy Hongyuan Soda because of the 500 yuan offer for Hongyuan Soda. The bosses of the canteens in each community saw business opportunities, so they approached Huang Minghua to join Hongyuan Soda.
The quantity required was quite large. The 2,000 bottles of soda that Lu Hao had just brought were not enough. He would need 2,000 more bottles tomorrow.
If this trend continues, it seems that as time goes by and the news spreads, 4,000 bottles, 8,000 bottles, and 16,000 bottles will be sold in the future.
But not to this extent.
This is an ideal situation, but the reality is very complicated and there are many obstacles. There are so many soda manufacturers in Jiangcheng, and there are also many distributors selling sodas below. There are entanglements of interests between different brands of sodas.
He and Huang Minghua are tied together to sell Hongyuan soda, and other soda sellers must also be tied to other brands of soda factories.
Each has a community of interests, but the object of making money is the same.
There is a contradiction.
When business reaches a certain level, disputes are inevitable later on. You have to put in some effort, use some skills, and maybe some blood to break through this obstacle before you can move forward.
"If other canteens come to me, I will not do business with them alone, but let them find you." Lu Hao looked at Huang Minghua.
Huang Minghua got it right and was so happy that he almost knelt down in front of Lu Hao, "Thank you, Boss Lu, for giving me this opportunity."
He really wanted to go up and hug Lu Hao and kiss him twice.
He knew exactly what this meant, which meant that Lu Hao had given full authority to the Hongyuan soda business to him. Lu Hao purchased the soda from the beverage factory, and he purchased the soda from Lu Hao.
Lu Hao eats meat, and he drinks soup!
He never thought about buying soda from the beverage factory because that would be unrealistic. When he first started the canteen business, he also had such an idea. However, he experienced some things later and proved that there was no relationship and no connections. This kind of behavior was simply not possible.
It won't work.
The sodas coming out of the beverage factory are controlled by some people. It is difficult to wholesale them from the manufacturers. Just like Lu Hao is doing now. Lu Hao can get the sodas from Hongyuan Beverage Factory. It must be related. He will definitely not be able to go there. And
Lu Hao gave him a verbal promise, and it would be impossible for anyone else to buy soda from Lu Hao's place.
Lu Hao stood inside the gate of Fortune, opened the door, and extended his hand to him, willing to give him a hand.
At this moment, Lu Hao's status in his family rose sharply, almost reaching the same level as his wife!
"The business is for you, but the quality of the soda you wholesale to others must be guaranteed, and you must take care of these people. If something happens, I won't look for anyone else, but you." Lu Hao said.
"Don't worry, Boss Lu, this is for sure." Huang Minghua knew what he was doing.
He plans to keep drinking this soup, and he will definitely drink it carefully.
He went downstairs to do some work.
On one side, the little widow passed by carrying an ash bucket with garbage in it. She went downstairs to take out the garbage.
An ash bucket is a bucket used by masons to hold cement when building walls. Many people use this bucket as a trash can or urine bucket.
Lu Hao walked over and threw the melon rind in his hand into the ash bucket, "Wait for me for a while."
"Oh." Chen Linjiao responded and stood obediently.
Lu Hao went back to the house, put away some pieces of melon rind on the table, took another piece of watermelon and went out, threw the rind into the ash bucket, and handed the watermelon to the little widow.
Chen Linjiao wanted to refuse, but he blocked her directly, "Stop talking and eat."
The little widow could only say "Oh" twice, and before she had time to refuse, she went downstairs like a victim.
After returning home, within two minutes of sitting down, the lights went out, the air conditioner creaked, and even the TV went out.
There's a power outage.
Nini quickly ran over and pressed the switch of the TV. Otherwise, the TV would turn on automatically when a call came later. It was okay if the person was at home, but it would keep on when the person was not at home.
The movements are skillful, and it has obviously been done many times.
"It's really annoying. I was just looking happy when there was a sudden power outage." Nini looked at Lu Hao frustratedly, "Dad, why are there always power outages?"
My father is like a superman, he can solve everything and knows everything.
"The lines are too old." Lu Hao said.
This matter cannot be solved in a short time. Even if all the lines in the community are replaced, it will be useless, because the lines inside the community are still connected to the outside transformer, and the outside transformer has an upper-level transformer.
There are lines connecting them in the middle. Only by replacing all the lines can this problem be solved.
In fact, Jiangcheng's power grid has been upgrading and renovating, but it can't keep up with demand and there is no financial support. It can only be upgraded and renovated to a limited extent and in different regions.
In 1980, Jiangcheng Power Supply Bureau had more than 3,700 kilometers of 6 to 10 kV distribution lines and distribution transformers with a total capacity of 100,000 kVA. However, this amount was not enough. Starting from the second year, the Power Supply Bureau continued to add more
Strengthen the construction and transformation of large, medium and low-voltage distribution networks.
Unfortunately, due to limited finances, we can only transform the medium and low-voltage distribution networks in one or two districts.
In addition, economic conditions are improving, per capita consumption levels are also constantly improving, household appliances are slowly entering every household, electricity consumption has been rising, and wiring improvements have been catching up.
The power supply department was also confused, so they modified the wiring according to the power load of an electric fan in each household. After hard work, they found that many people had TVs and refrigerators in their homes.
After the circuits were renovated according to the electrical load required for each household to have a fan, a TV, and a refrigerator, some people installed air conditioners.
The electrical load runs in front, and the power supply department chases behind.
The lines are old and tripping from time to time is common.
On rainy days and thundery days, there are frequent power outages. On the one hand, lightning strikes, and on the other hand, the gates are automatically closed to prevent accidents.
I come here several times a month, more frequently than my aunt.
It was still early and the room was stuffy. A family of three went downstairs and wandered around the courtyard of the community. Many people had already gathered below, wearing slippers, vests and cattail fans.
"Popsicles, popsicles, sold cheaply, 4 cents each." Huang Minghua shouted in the canteen.
