Yin Yuan drove to the Lingcun forest construction site. Tan Yongsheng and others were packing tools and dismantling the temporary work shed they had built.
Lin Runhua and Lu Ping were settling the labor costs with them.
Seeing Yin Yuan, Qin Yongsheng came over and said to him: "Mr. Yin, all the trees have been cut down. We will go back today. If there is a job to cut down trees in the future, you can ask me to come over and do it."
Yin Yuan praised him: You people from Guangxi Province are indeed very capable in doing things. I will definitely call you again next time I have such a job.
Yin Yuan asked Lu Ping to pay 200 yuan for each of their tree-cutting workers, and everyone in Qin Yongsheng expressed their gratitude to him.
Lu Ping showed him the data on how to cut down trees.
"16,000 cubic meters?"
At first, he and Guo Gengwen estimated that it would be 14,000 cubic meters, and the contract price was also calculated based on 14,000 cubic meters. Now that they have all been cut down, there are more than 2,000 cubic meters. Calculated based on the selling price of 210 yuan/cubic meter, they have made a profit of 420,000 yuan.
For 16,000 cubic meters of wood, according to the agreed labor fee of 40 yuan/cubic meter, Qin Yongsheng earned 640,000 yuan in just a few months.
There are more than 30 of them, almost 20,000 per person. With tractors and other tree-cutting machines, they are very profitable.
Yin Yuan thought that if he had asked the dozen or so people hired by Guo Gengwen to cut it, they might not be able to finish it in half a year next year.
He looked at the cubic meter of each truck of wood registered in the record book, and calculated it based on the price of 210 yuan/cubic meter sent to the paper mill, minus the cost of cutting down the tree of 640,000 yuan, and the cost of paying Guo Gengwen for the wood was 1.9 million yuan. After calculation, he could still do it. Earn 820,000.
Lu Ping told him: "5,800 cubic meters of 10-centimeter-diameter boxes sent to the wood processing plant were shipped to the wood processing plant, and 10,200 cubic meters were shipped to the paper mill."
A simple calculation of the profit is in the millions.
The money from the paper mill was transferred directly to Yin Yuan's account, while the money from the wood processing factory was in cash.
Lin Rundong used the money collected to pay off Qin Yongsheng's tree-cutting expenses, 200,000 yuan for the food expenses of several tree planters, and 1 million yuan for lumber to Guo Gengwen. Lu Ping said that there was still 16,000 yuan on the account, and there was room for bananas. 30,000 yuan. .
Yin Yuan reported Guo Gengwen's account number to Lin Wanting and asked her to go to the bank and transfer 900,000 to it.
He called Guo Gengwen: "Hello, Mr. Guo, I have asked my wife to transfer another 900,000 to your account. In that case, the lumber payment will be fully settled for you."
Guo Gengwen expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
He asked: "Have all those trees been blown up by the workers?"
Because according to the original agreement, the entire payment will be settled after all the trees are blown.
At that time, he estimated that it would definitely not be possible to cut it all off before the first year of the year. He was still trying to find a reason to ask Yin to advance some money before the first year to celebrate the new year, because some loans had to be paid before the first year, and bank loans also expired.
Who would have thought that Yin Yuan would take the initiative to call him and tell him that the remaining balance had been transferred to him.
He said: "Mr. Yin is the most trustworthy person."
There are so many villains who are dishonest and have money in their pockets, but they are unwilling to pay other people's debts. Even if they go to court, they will delay and rely on them as long as they can, and it doesn't matter if they break their faces.
Yin Yuan said: "The tree-cutting workers I hired from Guangxi Province are very capable. They are also professional. The weather has been good in the past few months. As of yesterday, they were all cut down. I will call it a day and go home."
Guo Gengwen said: "Mr. Yin still works vigorously and resolutely. No wonder you can make a lot of money."
He was very happy. 900,000 yuan was received, and he still owed hundreds of thousands more. He still had 500,000 to 600,000 yuan left. It was the easiest year in many years.
Yin Yuan asked Lin Runhua privately: "How did you discuss it with your parents? Are you not going to treat guests to a wedding before the year?"
Lin Runhua said: "My parents said they were going to Jiangming to buy us a new house, but I stopped them. There is no use buying a house in Jiangming. It is impossible to go back to Jiangming to live in Jiangming when you are working here. My mother still wants me to go back to Jiangming. I’m looking for something to do, but jobs in the city are not suitable for me.”
He said: "When the new village in Guancheng is completed, we can invite you to a banquet. Anyway, Lu Ping and I have already gone to receive the banquet."
It has been proved that the raw rice has been cooked into cooked rice, and there is nothing they can do to object. This year Uncle Lu asked me to take Lu Ping back to Jiangming to celebrate the New Year. "
Yin Yuan told him: "You did a good job in cutting down the trees and managing the tree planting. I will give you a bonus of 50,000 yuan separately, and the salary will be calculated separately."
Lin Runhua said excitedly: "There are so many, I feel so ashamed."
Yin Yuan said: "Work hard and I will definitely not treat you badly in the future."
He saw a group of people from the construction company building several reinforced concrete houses on a wasteland at the foot of the mountain, not far from the water pump room.
He and Lin Runhua went over to take a look.
Lin Runhua said: "We plan to let them build four houses here and two houses in the back mountain. When the fruits are ripe, someone will be left to guard the orchard at night."
Yin Yuan thought for a while and said, "I think we need to build a few more rooms. In the future, Ling Village will be completely vacated. The orchard workers will work here. If they have to run back to Guancheng to live every day, it will be dozens of kilometers away. So it is impossible." For those who go back every day, the houses built must be enough for workers to live in, and the living facilities must be complete, including bathrooms, kitchens, and even water, electricity, and televisions.”
There are ten people growing bananas here, and there are at least ten people in the orange garden in the back mountain. Two people are arranged in one room, and two rooms are needed for storage of tools and fertilizers. At least seven rooms are needed, and one is used as a kitchen, so Want eight rooms.
Each room has a bathroom.
He said there was an open space in front of it, and he would build a wall in front and install an iron gate so that there would be a courtyard inside.
He called the construction master over and told him his idea.
The construction master said: "I originally thought of building four rooms and two rooms on the back side of the mountain. In that case, the roof would be capped before the end of the year. If I add a few more rooms, I would still have some time to finish work after the new year."
Yin Yuan said to him: "Not only must the rough house be built, but it must also be decorated. The water, electricity, ceramic tiles, and walls must be decorated according to standards. The fruit growers will live here for a long time in the future, and we must make them comfortable."
Lin Runhua whispered to him: "Brother-in-law, this investment is a bit big."
Yin Yuan said: "An additional 100,000 yuan to build these houses should be enough, right?"
Lin Runhua nodded: "It must be enough."
He said happily: "In that case, it would be good for Lu Ping and I to live here forever. The environment here is quiet and good, and it will be more comfortable."
At this time, Chen Shujun rode his motorcycle to the tree planting site. He rode his motorcycle up the mountain. On a narrow roadbed, the wheel slipped and he almost fell.
Yin Yuan saw him and said, "What are you trying to do? If you had a car, would you also want to drive up the mountain?"
Chen Shujun felt itchy when he saw that all the tree cutters in Guizhou Province had stopped working and left today.
He said to Yin Yuan: "Mr. Yin, either our tree planters should go back a few days earlier. Anyway, they have problems with the supply of saplings. The saplings they received last time probably don't have many left."
Yin Yuan asked Lin Runhua: "They don't have enough saplings in the nursery?"
Lin Runhua said: "The sapling factory we ordered last time called him and asked him to send saplings. At that time, he only sent two-thirds of the needed saplings. Later, he explained that it was because there were several places that needed saplings at the same time, so he sent them We have reduced the quantity, but fortunately it has not affected the workers."
Yin Yuan and Lin Runhua went to the tree planting site on the mountain.
When Zhong Jianhua saw the two of them, he asked Lin Runhua: "The saplings will be planted in one day tomorrow. When will the next batch of saplings arrive?"
Lin Runhua said: "I called them yesterday to place an order, and they said they would deliver the seedlings within three days. I'll ask them again..."
He called the nursery.
The boss said, "I'm sorry, it may take two days before the saplings are delivered. The workers have been working overtime these days."
He then asked: "It's the end of the year, and labor prices and other costs have increased a lot. Can the boss increase the price a little, 18 cents per plant, okay?"
Yin Yuan took Lin Runhua's mobile phone and said to the director of the nursery: "I signed a supply contract with you at that time. I ordered four million plants from you, and the price was fixed at 15 cents a plant. You are now The price increase is a bit unjustifiable, right?
? "
If you break the contract, you will have to compensate for the losses.
For his saplings, he will be paid in batches according to the contract.
After planting this batch, they sent the second batch of saplings to the forest and paid off the previous batch of saplings. If there was a breach of contract, this batch of saplings would be considered liquidated damages.
The factory director quickly said, "I'm not negotiating with you. Don't worry, a batch of saplings will be sent over later, but the number may not be that big."
Lin Runhua asked him how many saplings he would send this afternoon?
The factory director said: "There are more than 30,000 plants, which can be planted on more than 100 acres of land. Considering that it is the end of the year, your workers should remember to go back to celebrate the New Year. If you send too many, they may not be able to finish the work."
Lin Rundong said: "Originally, if you sent 100,000 plants last time, our workers could basically go back to celebrate the New Year after finishing their work. You only sent 60,000 plants last time, and today's 30,000 plants are less than 100,000 plants. Could it be that after a few days? Send another 10,000 or 20,000 plants?"
The factory director said, "Don't worry, I won't let you stop working."
Yin Yuan asked him: "Does your nursery have no goods and do you need to transfer goods from other nurseries?"
The factory director quickly denied: "Our factory is the largest eucalyptus nursery factory, so there is no problem of lack of supply."
Yin Yuan said: "Why do you adopt this method of gradually reducing the quantity when there is stock?"
He quickly thought of a problem: after he planned to deliver 30,000 saplings in the afternoon, he pressed for payment for the last 60,000 saplings.
After receiving the payment, I insisted on increasing the price. If I didn't agree, it would be considered a breach of contract, and it would be a loss of 30,000 saplings and 4,500 yuan. Anyway, more than one million saplings had been sold and more than 400,000 yuan had been received for the saplings. .
After thinking about this problem, he just said: "Anyway, you can send the saplings over this afternoon."
The factory director wanted to say something else, but Yin Yuan hung up the phone on him.
Yin Yuan said to Lin Runhua: "This factory director is going to do some tricks. Look, he will send 30,000 saplings this afternoon. He will definitely ask you to pay for the first 60,000 saplings. Then next time you ask for saplings, he will definitely tell you about the price increase." , it is estimated that the prices of saplings from other factories have now increased, so he will also increase the price. But because he signed a supply contract with me, I would definitely not agree to the price increase, so he thought of this method of gradually reducing the price. The supply agreement I signed with him stipulates that each supply is based on 100,000 saplings, and each time the bill is settled, after receiving 100,000 saplings, the first 100,000 saplings will be paid."
Lin Runhua just reacted.
"He may really be thinking about this. Last time he brought 60,000 saplings, he urged me to pay for the last batch of 10 saplings, saying that he would help me make up for the 100,000 saplings in time."
Yin Yuan remembered that Guo Gengwen told him the phone numbers of three sapling factories.
He found another one and got through.
"Boss, how much does a eucalyptus sapling cost now?"
"How much do you want?"
Yin Yuan said: "I have a thousand acres of mountain forest to plant eucalyptus trees."
The boss said: "If your area is relatively large, I can give you 25 cents per plant. If the area is small, it will cost you 30 cents per plant."
Yin Yuan said in surprise: "Why has it risen so much? In the past few months, the lowest price was only 15 cents, but now it has doubled."
The boss said: "The superiors issued a document to encourage villagers to use mountain forest land to plant economic trees. This is equivalent to encouraging villagers to plant eucalyptus trees. Therefore, more and more people are planting eucalyptus trees and other fruit trees. Not only is the price of eucalyptus trees rising, , Other fruit saplings have also increased a lot. For example, citrus saplings used to cost 50 cents per plant, but now they have doubled to 1 yuan per plant.”
After the phone call, both Yin Yuan and Lin Runhua were sure that the factory director was thinking about the price increase.
Just now he didn't say it would rise to 25 cents per plant, but said it would rise to 18 cents. He was also worried that Yin Yuan would not agree.
The price of each plant increased by 10 cents, and if you wanted another million plants, you would have to pay an additional 100,000 yuan.
Next, he will definitely not be willing to supply goods in accordance with the signed supply contract.
He made up his mind and said to Lin Runhua: "I'm waiting for him here today. I guess the factory director will bring the goods over by himself this afternoon. After he brings the saplings over, one of us will be a good guy and the other will be a bad guy today. You tell him that Mr. Yin is here work
There is no need to transfer money, he will pay you cash, and at the same time arrange for workers to unload the saplings from his truck and move them up the mountain in time. Tell him that there are no saplings on the mountain, and the workers have been resting for a long time, and then I will take care of him. "
Wouldn't signing a supply agreement with him have some effect?
In that case, what kind of contract should I sign?
In fact, when he signed the contract, he already knew from the memory of his previous life that in the next few years, planting fruit trees and eucalyptus trees would become popular.
It was only many years later that it was discovered that planting eucalyptus trees would cause many harms and even pollute the environment. Some places issued laws banning the planting of eucalyptus trees, saying that they would destroy the trees. This was true for a while.
He and Lin Runhua went to see the tree planting teams of Chen Shuqing and Chen Shujun.
Two days after Chen Shujun went to Jiangming, his team had more saplings in comparison.
Qiu Hailian returned to her original team.
None of the dozens of people in Zhong Jianhua and Chen Shuqing's team said they wanted to go back to their hometown in advance to celebrate the New Year.
Only Chen Shujun said to him: "Mr. Yin, after our team has planted the remaining saplings, can we go back on vacation?"
Probably because the squad leader was gone and no one else wanted to do it, the other two squads only had a thousand saplings on hand, and their group had at least three thousand.
Yin Yuan knew what he was thinking. He nodded and said, "Then you can go back after planting these saplings."
