Chapter 33 Year-end inventory

In 2007, the beginning of spring was early, February 4th, but it was still the 17th day of the twelfth lunar month. The Chinese New Year was not yet celebrated, so it was considered early spring. By around the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, the production of the Xintai-Shanghai Company's factory slowly stopped.

Printing supplies are auxiliary materials, and the unit's printing orders are basically closed at this time. New orders usually have to wait until after formal work in the next year. At this time, the printing factory will use this period of time to conduct business inventory and maintenance of machinery and facilities. Workers can take advantage of this opportunity to repair and renovate, or conduct technical skills and other training practices.

During this period, Wang Yiyuan was busier than usual. He took Wang Liping, red envelopes, or gifts to send all the company's customers. Especially Xie Dong from Lida Machinery and Sun Wen from Guoli Socks Industry, although he has no direct business dealings with their company now, as a good friend, Wang Yiyuan still visited the door in person and sincerely invited the two of them to have a party.

Moreover, Wang Yiyuan was drunk this time. However, this time, Wang Yiyuan refused to choose the farmhouse that he had often visited before. After settling down Wang Yiyuan, Sun Wen said, it seems that some people are still obsessed with someone. Xie Dong was also very moved and said, even if he didn't go to the previous restaurant, Wang Yiyuan did this, obviously stingy. This kid is afraid that he would hate me too.

I finally got idle these days. Wang Yiyuan did not go out for business anymore, but checked this year's business transaction records in the office on the second floor. He had a notebook with his own, and was used to recording the people and things related to him every day. He always felt that a good memory was not as good as a bad pen, and these records were also a concrete and intuitive explanation for himself over the past year.

He looked through this year page by page, especially since the establishment of the New Taiwan Shanghai Company, reviewing his performance in business, company management, personal relationships and other aspects this year. He suddenly found that looking back and analyzing many things that happened from the current perspective often has new aftertaste and experience, and more unexpected new understandings and gains in experience and lessons.

Just as I started working in the morning, Wang Yiyuan and Xiao Yunhua discussed the factory's Spring Festival holiday in the office. After the discussion, Xiao Yunhua got up and wanted to go downstairs to announce to the workers, but Wang Yiyuan grabbed him. Wang Yiyuan smiled and said, "Old Xiao, my factory manager, you can relax, too. Come on, let's talk for a while."

Xiao Yunhua knew that Wang Yiyuan had something to say, so he went to the next door to get his kettle, took a plastic bag in his hand, and said to Wang Yiyuan, this is the mountain cloud tea in our hometown, you can drink it too.

After making tea, Wang Yiyuan sipped in a small mouthful and said, "It's good tea. It's better than what I drink now." Xiao Yunhua curled his lips and said, "Your tea is almost the same as this tea residue."

Wang Yiyuan said, we brothers haven't spoken well for a while. The main thing is that they each have a big business. Although the factory is small, we have been doing it hard for half a year since we decided to start a business until now. Xiao Yunhua said, it's not easy. When we were working in the past, we really felt that it was not as simple as we imagined. Wang Yiyuan said, but fortunately, we still survived it.

Xiao Yunhua didn't make a sound and slowly drank the tea. Wang Yiyuan continued, "Old Xiao, what do you think of our factory?"

When Xiao Yunhua heard Wang Yiyuan's words, he put down his teacup and said to Wang Yiyuan, "Boss, do you want to hear the truth?"

Wang Yiyuan couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "Why, Lao Xiao, are you hiding me?"

Xiao Yunhua sat upright and said seriously, Lao Wang, to be honest, I want to thank you. If it weren't for your encouragement, I would never have thought that I would still be able to make up my mind to start a business. I always felt that I was only suitable for doing good technology or management work. In this regard, I think most of the workers in the factory have the same idea as me. Now, look at their enthusiasm and mental outlook when working, they really treat the factory as their own business. I think you can also feel Lao Wang. Wang Yiyuan nodded.

Xiao Yunhua continued, I think everyone is not pretending to be happy, it should be from the heart. Wang Yiyuan said, what about your truth and lies? Xiao Yunhua said, my truth and lies are the same. Now we all sincerely recognize you as the boss, and hope to follow you and work hard on the factory.

After hearing what Xiao Yunhua said, Wang Yiyuan was also very moved and was ready to speak. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Liping knocked on the door and walked in with a smile. She said, "I was looking for Xiao Yunhua in the workshop just now, but I didn't expect you to be here. It just so happened that the factory's accounts have come out this year. I'm here to give the company account book to you both for the purpose."

After taking the account book, Wang Yiyuan and Xiao Yunhua were shocked when they saw the account. They saw that the company's book profit this year was nearly 400,000, which means that since the official start of construction in mid-September this year, it has been nearly five months since the monthly net profit is about 80,000 yuan.

This far exceeded the original estimate of Wang Yiyuan and Xiao Yunhua's initial factory. Xiao Yunhua stretched out his finger and still had a little spit in his mouth, counting the digits one by one, ten, hundreds... and counted them again.

Looking at the numbers, Wang Yiyuan and the others couldn't believe it was true. They originally wanted to earn a salary this year, but if they could make a small profit, they would be very successful. They didn't expect that not only would they make a profit, but they would also make so much profit.

Seeing Wang Yiyuan and the others' sceptical and disbelief, Wang Liping teased, "Is it like you who make money?" Tell me. I have never seen the stupid look of money."

Wang Yiyuan said, "Don't say anything, Lao Xiao and I were just talking about the factory. But are your account accurate? Don't remember it as a fool? Wang Yiyuan reached out to take the calculator, paper and pen on the table, and prepared to recalculate the accounts yourself.

Don't believe it? I've calculated it several times. Wang Liping smiled and said, "Oh, you are so rustic, you're so stupid."

Wang Yiyuan and Xiao Yunhua looked at each other and said in unison, "Is it really successful?" They reached out and celebrated each other with high-fives, and their joy was beyond words.

Looking at Xiao Yunhua and Wang Liping, Wang Yiyuan suddenly asked seriously, have you ever had so much money?

Xiao Yunhua and Wang Liping were stopped and shook their heads. Wang Yiyuan followed Wang Liping's tone and said teasingly, "There are two fools." Xiao Yunhua and Wang Liping reacted and came up together to beat Wang Yiyuan."

Wang Liping said that this also includes factors such as the initial production of the factory, the unstable business, etc. If we look at the current production, it would be better next year. She said self-deprecatingly that it seems that I still have less money to invest in the stock at the beginning, and it would be great if I borrowed some more.

Wang Yiyuan joked, "Would you like to lend you some more Brother Wang, Brother Xiao has some more."

Wang Liping pretended to be unhappy and said, "What I said is true." She continued, "You two have read the transportation fee on the report." We have spent nearly 40,000 yuan in the past few months. I feel very distressed when I think about it."

In fact, when it comes to the company's transportation costs, this is a last resort. First, the company is still in its initial stage and has a lot of money to spend. There is no extra money to buy a truck. Second, if you have money, you have to configure a driver accordingly. There are also fuel expenses, insurance, maintenance, maintenance, etc. There are also many invisible expenses. These invisible expenses may not be cheaper than calling a taxi outside. Third, what is more troublesome is that if the vehicle has another bump or crash, or a car accident, it is even hard to say. Anyway, there are many vehicles doing transportation on the road outside, and there are even many cheaper black cars, which are available on call, which is very convenient.

So although Wang Liping and Xiao Yunhua mentioned many things about buying vehicles, Wang Yiyuan rejected them, he felt that calling a taxi outside was convenient and easy to deal with. Wang Yiyuan waved his hand and said, "Today I will only talk about happy things." These things will be discussed when we really make a lot of money."

Of course, Wang Liping was quite happy. She invested 100,000 yuan in Xintai Shanghai Company, accounting for 5% of the company's total share capital. Based on the current profit of 400,000 yuan, her corresponding dividend is 20,000 yuan. In other words, in just over five months, the return rate of her investment reached 20%, which is more than the salary she earned in the same period. At this rate, she can recover all her capital in about two years, and the rest is purely real money.

Not only Wang Liping was happy, but all the employees of the factory were also very happy. They all felt that they had seen the future and hope of the company's development. At the shareholders' meeting the next day, they talked about the company's current situation and imagined the company's future. Everyone smiled, and even many people proposed to increase the company's capital on the spot. Finally, these shareholders agreed to pay the annual bonus according to the one-month salary benchmark, and the remaining money was no longer distributed dividends, and they were used as the company's working capital.

On the 28th day of the 12th lunar month, Wang Yiyuan selected the best hotel in Wujing Town, booked the best private rooms, and all the company's employees. He also invited General Manager Xiao Jingdong, Manager Ding, Manager Sun Yuquan, Master Du Yule of the former Taiwan and Shanghai Company, General Manager Hu of the business unit, and representatives of suppliers such as paper mills and ink, etc., to hold a lively dinner party for the whole company.

During the Chinese New Year, Wang Yiyuan originally wanted to go back to his hometown in Hunan, but later because his sister and brother's family did not go back to his hometown to celebrate the Chinese New Year, he gave up. He had to be on duty in the factory, and like last year, he spent another one-by-one Spring Festival in Shanghai.

Surprisingly, at twelve o'clock on New Year's Eve, Wang Yiyuan received two special text messages, sent by Xu Yan and Xiao Xiaoxiao. Regarding Xu Yan, Wang Yiyuan has basically no contact since he came to Shanghai, and he doesn't know where she got Wang Yiyuan's phone number. I remember that Wang Yiyuan had given her.
