Chapter 112: It's not that I don't know, but it's a shock!
In the coal factory management room.
Fatty Sun was holding a bamboo sieve and reported to Zhao Hao his preliminary plan:
"The villain and a few managers have decided to use this thing to inspect the coal powder."
Zhao Hao took it and saw that the mesh was very thin, so he asked Fatty Sun to try it on the spot.
A basin of coal was poured into a sieve, and the coal powder was dripping like rain.
Fatty Sun kept shaking the sieve and sifted all the coal powder into the basin.
Large coal particles, as well as sand mixed in the coal, and stones remain in the sieve.
Then he handed the sieve to his subordinates and held the basin and presented it to the young master for his inspection.
Zhao Hao grabbed a handful of his hand and looked at the coal powder falling from his fingers, which was a little thinner than the standard he set yesterday.
"This method is good. I will buy thousands of sieves and send one to each of the workers." He nodded with satisfaction and asked again:
"But if this happens, how much can you pay in a day?"
"A few villains have finished the total. Half of these 30 million kilograms of charcoal are powdered coal, so it should be fine if one person sets a 1,000 kilogram per day."
"Well, then we'll make so many for now, and you can adjust it according to the actual situation at any time." Zhao Hao covered his mouth and coughed twice. That was caused by the dust generated when sifting coal.
"By the way, there's this thing." This reminded Zhao Hao. He took out a mask sewn with several layers of gauze from his sleeve and handed it to Sun Dawu. "After the New Year, after the tailor's shop opens, you can customize a large number of me every month, and workers must wear it like this when they go to work."
"This thing can protect their health, including you, you must bring it when you go to the construction site," he said, covering his mask with his mouth and nose, and said in a muffled voice: "Otherwise, you are not allowed to go to work."
"Yes, young master..." Since Sun Dawu decided that young master was doing charity, he would be happy.
When knocking coal, sifting coal or even stirring coal powder, workers will inhale a large amount of dust without realizing it. Over time, they will suffer from terrible pneumoconiosis.
Although in this era, no one will ask him for compensation, and many people even do not regard refugees as human beings.
But Zhao Hao felt that it was too much to exploit them in this way.
If you know the harm of occupational diseases, but just save those two small money and don’t give workers the most basic protection, it would be too cold-blooded.
After all, Mr. Zhao’s purpose is not to make money, right?
~~
As he was talking, Cai Ming brought in a charcoal basin with a few pieces of coal lotus roots.
Zhao Hao asked him to burn it on the spot for Sun Dawu and others, and sure enough, they were all stunned.
But the focus of these people is completely different from that of Wuyang and Yi Zhao.
Looking at the dark blue fire in the pot, Sun Dawu's little eyes showed an excitement.
Several officials were also whispering to each other, and their faces were also full of joy.
"As soon as this thing is taken out, all the coal shops in the capital have to kneel there!"
"It's not just a coal shop? I think even firewood and charcoal will be affected..."
"Well, as long as the price is reasonable, you must be sure to sell it for a big sale..."
They are all people in the business and business houses, so they can naturally see how big the business opportunities this thing contains.
"Young Master, how are you going to price this coal lotus root?" Sun Dawu asked with his lips trembling. He was worried that the cost was too high and he could not expel the volume.
"One four cents." Zhao Hao also told them the ingredients: "One coal lotus is two and a half kilograms, two kilograms of coal powder, and half a kilogram of loess... It's done with the most ordinary coal."
"The cost of that coal lotus root is..." Sun Dawu thought silently in his heart, looked at Zhao Hao with shock and said, "It's definitely not more than three cents!"
"Not bad!" Zhao Hao couldn't help looking at him with admiration, and his name to Sun Dawu in his heart also rose to the more intimate "Fat Sun" stage.
Before he arranged this deal, he had made strict cost calculations.
Under the premise that the initial investment is not included, the cost of each coal lotus root generally includes three parts: raw materials, labor and miscellaneous expenses.
Among the raw materials, loess and water are free of money, and they are inexhaustible on the river beach. Lime and sawdust are extremely cheap things, and the amount is extremely low. When each coal lotus is spread, it is even less than a cent, which is almost negligible.
Therefore, the raw material cost is basically two cents of that two kilograms of coal.
As for labor, Zhao Hao is preparing to pay a cent for every ten coal lotus workers. There is also coal powder, and transportation workers basically refer to this standard, so the total labor cost for each coal lotus is 0.3 cents.
The last miscellaneous expenses, including the remuneration of sales personnel, 30 taxes and one in the city, the workers' food, and labor insurance costs, are quite a lot. However, it is definitely more than 7 cents per piece of coal lotus.
So as Sun Dawu estimated, the cost of each piece of coal lotus will not exceed three cents.
With a price of four cents, you will make a net profit of one cent for every coal lotus sold, and the profit margin is as high as one third!
Ma Zi once said that as long as there is 10% profit, it will be used by capital everywhere; if there is 20% profit, capital will become lively.
Thirty-three percent of the profit can already make capital double lively and approach the boundary of taking risks...
~~
Although Sun Dawu didn't know Ma Zi, he could clearly figure out how broad the prospects of this deal were...
He thought in his mind that Beijing City had to use three to four million kilograms of coal every day. We were not greedy, so we grabbed a small half of the market and then grabbed a little firewood and charcoal market. It would be no problem to sell 1.5 million yuan a day. In this way, the net profit every day is - 1,500 taels.
After a month, I was so obedient that it turned out to be 40,000 to 50,000 taels!
Even if there is an off-season, the net profit of 300,000 to 400,000 taels a year is still stable...
Sun Dawu's boss opened his mouth, what kind of business can make such a profit?
This is because the young master has increased the cost a lot with his charity, otherwise he can earn more.
After repeatedly calculating it in my mind several times and confirming that I had calculated the wrong number, Sun Dawu smiled bitterly and said with admiration to Zhao Hao:
"The villain has no idea about Mount Tai anymore. He actually thought the young master was an amateur. He didn't expect that I was just a stick..."
"Hahaha..." Zhao Hao patted his extremely elastic belly and laughed loudly: "You are also very good. Work hard with me and make sure you eat more fat!"
"Hey, my wife even complains about me..."
Of course, Sun Dawu knew what Zhao Hao meant, so he deliberately defamed himself and wanted to make you happy and bring your relationship closer to the young master.
"Don't talk nonsense, my young master is still underage!" Unexpectedly, he was scolded by Cai Ming ruthlessly.
Sun Dawu was so scared that he was about to kneel down and kowtow, but Zhao Hao waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't blame anyone who doesn't know it, just pay attention to it later."
Well, you can't let the adult world be messy and affect the healthy growth of this young master.
"Yes, villains must pay attention!" Fatty Sun hurriedly nodded like pounding garlic, and then said to the officials: "Not only do you have to pay attention to it yourself, but whenever the young master enters the coal factory in the future, no one is allowed to swear words!"
"Yes!" The managers responded in unison, determined to escort the youthful season of their son through joint efforts...
