The factory director took a bite of each of Xu Yin's snacks, and the more he ate, the brighter his eyes became.
It can be made into donut biscuits of different flavors, milk-flavored steamed buns suitable for children, canned oatmeal eight-treasure porridge that can be used as military supplies, and novel and unique flavors of wolf tooth potatoes, cheese potato chips, and oatmeal crisps.
His gray-brown eyes gleamed with light: If our own food factory had these new flagship products, would we still worry about poor profitability this year? Maybe there is still hope to catch up with those established food companies.
"Ms. Xiaon, I agree to your request!"
After signing the contract, the factory director even stayed with Xu Yin for a light meal.
During the banquet, several of the food factory’s past staple foods were served, basically wheat biscuits, oatmeal biscuits, cookies, and buns. The types are relatively simple, and the taste is not as rich as later generations.
No wonder the factory director decided on the spot after tasting the snacks she made.
She had the blessing of someone who had come over.
It's a pity that this food company is a bit small, and the purchase volume is only 1,500 tons. Even with this amount, it is said that the factory director overcame all objections and expanded the production line to squeeze out the output.
But the farm in Cook Town produced at least 1,800 tons of grain this year. Her own farm alone produced about 500 tons, supplying 1,500 tons to the food factory, and at least 300 tons were left unaccounted for.
But Xu Yin doesn’t plan to try this method with other food companies anymore.
Going around various food companies with the formula can certainly help sell this year's food, but it can also easily lead to disputes.
She is a foreign student, and her goal of making money by selling food everywhere is too big. She has not forgotten that she is in a book, and she is a cannon fodder who can lead a dog if she is not careful.
Low profile! Being low-key is the way to go!
So it would be better to cooperate with this company, and the other party will get rich secretly, while she will lose her food by secretly prodding. After a win-win situation, I hope to have cooperation next time and the next time, and strive to become a long-term supplier of food companies.
If the remaining 300 tons cannot be sold, she will hoard it herself.
The food factory has its own transportation department, with several large covered trucks. In addition to transporting export goods to the docks and airports from time to time, they also regularly transport food to the south.
Xu Yin made some concessions on the price, and the food company was willing to come to pick up the goods.
The two parties agreed on the delivery time.
It is impossible to move all 1,500 tons of grain in one batch, and the food company cannot mobilize so many trucks. Furthermore, the food company’s raw material warehouse cannot free up such a large space at once. It will take several trips, but it is guaranteed to be completed before spring. Pull them all away.
Xu Yin estimated that the existing farm warehouses in Cook Town may not be enough. After all, all kinds of fruits are about to mature. In previous years, when the grain matured, it would be taken away by purchasers soon. There has not been all the piles yet. The situation in the warehouse. But you can rent a ranch warehouse.
Sheep wool warehouses are empty before spring. As for the smell... Anyway, the wheat and oats are not shelled, so it shouldn't matter if they are temporarily stored for a few days.
The potatoes have thin skins and are worried about the smell, so they are all placed in the farm warehouse.
I just don’t know if the ranchers in Cooktown are willing to cooperate.
With this concern in mind, Xu Yin did not stay in the North Island for long. She visited the local market for a while and bought some freshly landed seafood. Then she returned to Cook Town in a dusty way. As soon as she arrived, she asked the mayor: "Can you Call the ranchers for a meeting? We need to ask them to rent a batch of warehouses."
The mayor's expectant eyes suddenly lost their luster: "You haven't found a market, have you?"
If you can’t find a market, do you really need to rent a warehouse? Otherwise, would you let so much food rot in the ground?
"So many farms all over the country are in a commotion. I read in the newspaper that the grain and oil companies in North Island have been squeezed out by farmers from all over the country. It is normal for them to find no sales."
Xu Yin was stunned for a moment, then remembered that she had been thinking about the warehouse all the way and hadn't told the mayor the good news yet.
When she finished speaking, the mayor was stunned: "What did you say, Sean? Have you found a market? Or is it a food company? The contract has been signed? Wheat, oats, and potatoes each sold 500 tons?"
"That's right." Xu Yin nodded with a smile, "But because the food company cannot free up enough warehouses for the time being, we have to pick up the goods in several batches, but we promise to finish them before spring. But I calculated the warehouses of each farm I'm afraid I can't store so much goods, so I'm wondering if I can find ranchers to rent their warehouses for a short period of time... Oh, by the way! The first batch of goods will be delivered by a fleet tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, with 30 tons of each of the three types of grains. .”
"!!!"
The mayor was stunned and overjoyed: "Really?"
After receiving Xu Yin's affirmative answer, the stone in his heart fell to the ground. He laughed and patted Xu Yin on the shoulder: "You still have the ability, Sean! Leave the warehouse to me. I'll find Hunter and Old William right away." go!"
It's just renting until spring. The warehouse at the ranch is empty, so I'm definitely willing to rent it out.
The mayor's wife came out with a bowl of mutton soup and sliced salmon: "Sean, let Love contact you about the warehouse. Sit down, have a rest and have something to eat."
Xu Yin couldn't refuse, so she sat down to eat something, and then returned to her village.
In the next few days, except for communicating with the transportation team sent by the food company, she let the mayor arrange everything else.
As a result, the mayor is extremely busy. It is already the busy season on the farm, but he is very busy. It is good to be busy when he has something to do. If he has nothing to do, he should be anxious.
A total of 1,500 tons were sold, and the combined crop output of the four farms in the town was about 1,800 tons. We might as well distribute it proportionally, which would be fair to everyone and more promising.
None of the farmers had any objections.
To be honest, when Sean didn't come back, they didn't have much hope. The good news that Sean brought back was like the spring rain that moistened the earth, soothing their depressed hearts.
Not to mention proportional distribution, even if Sean proposed that crops from her farm should be given priority and other companies would be considered after selling her farm, they would have no objection.
"But I'm really scared. I heard that farmers in other areas have changed careers when they have no other choice. I plan to change careers next year too."
A farmer came to thank Xu Yin with a basket of blueberries and chatted about his future plans.
"What are you going to do when you change careers?" Xu Yin asked.
In an agricultural country, what would we do if we didn’t engage in agriculture?
The farmer grinned, showing his big white teeth: "Go and farm mussels in Hawke's Bay! My late grandmother's great-nephew raised green-lipped mussels in Hawke's Bay. He said that the benefits are getting better and better every year. They asked me to cooperate last year. Without the New Deal, I had no plan to change my career. I have lived in Cooktown for so many years and have feelings for each other, but now the farm is in such a slump, I have to find another way out!"
Having said this, he asked Xu Yin: "Sean, my farm is far away from the town, but the soil is fertile. Are you interested in taking over?"
Xu Yin: "..."
She already owns 85 hectares of pasture, 50 hectares of farm, and a lake on the mountain. She has no intention of becoming a big landowner, so what will she do with so much land.
Besides, I don’t have the money to take over.
[Ding--become a farmer who travels all over the world! With food in hand, I don’t feel panic, and I am happy to herd horses and sheep! If the farm area reaches 100 hectares, random skills will be rewarded; if the pasture area reaches 200 hectares, a small world vacation will be rewarded]
"..."
