Feng Jing pursed her lips and said with a smile, "An excellent professional manager must be good at adjusting the development strategy and psychological positioning according to the company's strength and prospects, right?"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "That's right! That's why I chose you in the first place! "
When Feng Jing heard Xia Ruofei's slightly ambiguous words, her pretty face couldn't help but blush slightly. She quickly adjusted and said, "Chairman, since you agree, then I'll start officially contacting the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission today and strive to get this project smoothly."
This was the company's biggest acquisition since its establishment, and it was also related to the company's development for a long time. Feng Jing was very excited and eager to try.
Xia Ruofei nodded slightly and said, "Okay! If there's anything you can't make up your mind about, report to me at any time! "
"Understood!" Feng Jing said excitedly.
…
In the next few days, Feng Jing put most of her energy into this acquisition.
The second sale of the Jade Muscle Ointment had just ended, and the company's work was proceeding in an orderly manner. Everyone had their own duties, so there was no need to involve Feng Jing too much energy.
On the second day after Xia Ruofei returned to China, there was a celebration party. He gave a bonus to all the people involved in the sale of the Jade Muscle Ointment and announced a new company benefit. All the employees had the opportunity to travel with pay every year. The company would provide travel subsidies, and the employees could choose the location themselves.
The travel benefits were also divided into three levels, and the subsidies for each level were not the same. Generally speaking, the first level of subsidies was enough to support the employees to travel to Europe and America. The second level allowed them to travel to domestic depth or Southeast Asian countries. The third level allowed them to travel to at least one or two cities in the country.
The travel subsidies were divided according to the employees' grades, their usual performance, performance, and so on. The grades were assessed annually.
This grade was not only related to the travel subsidies, but also closely related to the employees' promotion and transfer.
This quantitative grading system was introduced after repeated discussions between Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing.
Both of them agreed that since the company was developing so quickly, it was time to set up rules. To put it simply, it was time to institutionalize and formalize the company.
The first batch of people to receive the travel subsidy was the batch of employees who had worked on the Yuji ointment project.
The employees were naturally overjoyed, and Xia Ruofei was also filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Xia Ruofei had never been a stingy person. Now that the company was making money, Xia Ruofei would definitely not mistreat the employees who worked hard for the development of the company.
Soon, Xia Ruofei had been back for a week.
He spent most of his time on the farm this week. Other than going on two dates with Ling Qingxue, he focused most of his energy on his work.
This was because Xia Ruofei was interested in his work these days. Ye Linyun and a few veterans had made all the tea leaves that Xia Ruofei had provided before he left the country into Da Hong Pao tea leaves. They had obtained a total of about 250 kilograms.
Xia Ruofei personally tasted it once and felt that the taste was quite good. Although it was still a little lacking compared to the batch of Da Hong Pao he had collected, it was much better than the so-called top-grade Da Hong Pao on the market.
Xia Ruofei knew that in addition to the tea leaves being of a much higher quality than other tea companies, Ye Linyun's ancient tea making skills, which he had directly inherited from Elder Li Zhifu, also played a very important role.
Xia Ruofei was very happy. Not only did he praise Ye Linyun and the others, but he also announced on the spot that they would receive the same travel benefits as the employees who had worked on the Yuji ointment project.
The other departments of the company also worked hard to cooperate. Some were responsible for the design, some were responsible for the packaging, and some were responsible for the publicity. Soon, this batch of tea leaves was packaged into small bubble gift boxes.
This batch of Taoyuan Da Hong Pao was put on sale in the Taoyuan Company's Tmall flagship store and the Jingbei store.
Other than using a large banner to publicize it on the front page of the online store on the e-commerce platform, the Taoyuan Company did not hold a special press conference for Taoyuan Da Hong Pao.
On the one hand, the quantity of this batch of goods was not large. On the other hand, the Taoyuan Company was no longer the ignorant company it had been in the past. Its popularity had increased after the auction of the top-grade abalone, the Yuji ointment press conference, and the first sale. It was now considered a well-known company in China.
In the past, its reputation was only limited to Sanshan City, or at most, the Southeast Province. Now, the Taoyuan Company had a good reputation throughout the country, and even many people paid attention to it overseas.
This was naturally due to the Yuji ointment.
It had been more than a month since the Yuji ointment press conference, and the first batch of Yuji ointment had been on sale for more than half a month. More and more consumers knew about Yuji ointment, and this naturally spread abroad.
Although the Yuji ointment's overseas release date had not been confirmed, countless people went abroad every day to study, travel, and visit relatives. Among them, there were users of Yuji ointment.
The effect of Yuji ointment was so amazing. Such a phenomenal product was like an awl in a cloth bag, and it was impossible to hide its edge.
Just a few days ago, the company began to receive calls from overseas, all seeking agency cooperation. There were calls from Europe, the United States, Southeast Asia, and even Africa.
Of course, Xia Ruofei did not deal with these intentions for cooperation for the time being.
His idea was still to invest deeply in the domestic market. After the company's scale and production capacity increased, he would then attack the overseas market.
Anyway, the good products were there, and now that they were famous, there was no need to worry about sales.
The same was true for Taoyuan Da Hong Pao.
With the reputation of the Taoyuan Company as a foundation, there was a preconceived impression of "Taoyuan products must be the best." Even if the Taoyuan Company only put up promotional banners in their own online stores and made a routine announcement on the company's official website, there were still a lot of people willing to try the new products of the Taoyuan Company.
Now, there were people going to the Taoyuan Company's official website, Tmall's flagship store, Jingbei's own store, and so on every day. Their purpose was to not miss the new round of Yuji ointment sales.
Therefore, as soon as the Taoyuan Company's new tea was put up in their online stores, people immediately discovered it.
There were even online media reporters who saw it and reported it online. It was equivalent to advertising for the Taoyuan Company for free.
The Taoyuan Company's tea was not cheap.
The standard price of 500 grams of tea was 18888 yuan. Although it was worlds apart from the price of the mother tree Da Hong Pao, it was still mass-produced. Moreover, the mother tree Da Hong Pao's price was more due to its rarity. The rarer something was, the more expensive it was!
In other words, if all 500 kilograms of tea were sold, it would bring in almost 10 million yuan in revenue.
Of course, the marketing department had designed a detailed sales strategy. There were all kinds of tea to choose from on the online store, including 50 grams of experimental tea to 500 grams of standard gift boxes. There were five or six grades for consumers to choose from. Those who were not financially able could buy small packages to taste the tea.
However, no matter the grade, the unit price was the same. They were all about 18000 yuan. As for the 500 grams of tea that was sold for 18888 yuan, the extra 800 yuan was actually the cost of packaging.
Although the price was very high, users who were willing to wait to buy the Yuji ointment were basically financially able.
Therefore, after the Taoyuan Da Hong Pao was put up in the online store, orders began to come in one after another.
There were people buying from 50 grams to 500 grams of tea. Although there was no blowout order flow like the Yuji ointment, they sold 20 to 30 kilograms in a very short period of time.
After Xia Ruofei received the first-hand data, he was not worried at all.
The Taoyuan Company's reputation was there, and the quality of the Taoyuan Da Hong Pao was also there. He was not afraid that these tea leaves would not be able to sell.
On the contrary, he was worried that the production would not be able to keep up in the future.
This was because he believed that there would soon be repeat customers who recognized the goods. Moreover, the Internet was so advanced now. Perhaps the Taoyuan Da Hong Pao would become another popular product on the Internet. When that happened, the number of orders would surge.
These days, Feng Jing often went to the city. The matter of the Taoyuan Da Hong Pao was basically handled by Xia Ruofei himself.
What made Xia Ruofei feel a little strange was that Feng Jing had not reported to him about the progress of the purchase of the Hengli Building project.
…
That afternoon, Xia Ruofei went to the sales department's office to look at the backend data of the online store. When he returned to his office, he happened to see Feng Jing walking over from the opposite side of the corridor.
Xia Ruofei was about to greet Feng Jing when his phone rang.
Therefore, he took out his phone and glanced at the caller ID. It was an international call from Australia, Old West.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei answered the phone and gestured to Feng Jing to follow him back to his office.
Feng Jing looked a little tired. She nodded at Xia Ruofei and followed Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei walked in front and put the phone to his ear. He smiled and said in English, "Uncle Carter, hello! It should be evening in Australia now! What's the matter? "
Old West's excited voice came from the phone. "Boss, I feel that there's something wrong with the seedlings in the vineyard!"
Xia Ruofei froze for a moment and frowned slightly. He opened the office door and said, "Something's wrong? What's wrong? Did the seedlings wither on a large scale? "
Xia Ruofei felt that the possibility was very low! Those seedlings were all cultivated in the Ring-Tu space. Moreover, their mother trees were the vines of the West winery! The possibility of them not being acclimatized was very low.
Even if they were not acclimatized, Xia Ruofei had poured a lot of precious Spirit Heart Flower petal solution into the irrigation towers of the two wineries. How could something have happened to the seedlings?
Old West quickly said, "That's not it! Boss, you don't have to worry. "
Xia Ruofei let out a sigh of relief and asked, "Then what's wrong?"
Old West said, "Boss, I've been going to the vineyard every day. I found that … I found that these seedlings are growing too fast. It's so fast that I'm scared …"
Xia Ruofei let out a long sigh of relief. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Uncle Carter, can you please speak in one breath next time? Speaking halfway … I was almost scared to death by you … "
Old West said nervously, "I'm sorry, boss … But I feel that it's not normal for them to grow too fast! According to my estimation, these seedlings are growing at least three times faster than normal seedlings! There shouldn't be any problems with this batch of seedlings, right? "
Xia Ruofei said calmly, "Uncle Carter, there's nothing wrong with this! These seedlings have been carefully improved by me. They're already growing very fast. Next year, you'll find that not only are they growing fast, but the quality of the grapes will also be top-notch! "
"Next year?" Old West was stunned. He said in disbelief, "Boss, you mean … Our vines will bear fruit in less than half a year? That's … that's unbelievable! "
The growth cycle of grapes varied according to the variety. Under normal circumstances, depending on the growing environment, it was possible for newly planted Semillon grapes to bear fruit in one to three years. However, the grape harvest season in Australia usually started in March, and there were only five months left before the seedlings were planted. The fact that the grapes could be harvested in such a short period of time completely overturned Old West's understanding.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Although I can't guarantee it, there's still hope. Uncle Carter, I hope you can take good care of these precious seedlings. Maybe we'll have a surprise next year! "
"Of course! Don't worry! " Old West said happily. He then asked, "Boss, then … Is there anything I need to pay attention to when taking care of these vines?"
Xia Ruofei shook his head with a smile and said, "No, just take care of them like how you used to take care of those Semillon vines!"
"Understood!"
"Uncle Carter," Xia Ruofei said, "I still have something to do here. Let's call it a day! I'll leave the vineyard to you! "
"Okay! Boss, I'll report to you if there's anything! "Old West hung up happily, as if he had just eaten a tranquilizer.
Xia Ruofei put the phone on the desk and leaned back in the soft chair.
Feng Jing asked, "Was that a call from the vineyard in Australia?"
Feng Jing knew that Xia Ruofei had bought a winery in Australia. She even knew that Xia Ruofei had bought the winery in the name of an offshore company.
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded. "Yes! A very dedicated old man, and the original owner of that winery. "
"Why does it sound like there's something wrong with the vineyard?" Feng Jing asked.
"Sigh! Last time, I brought some improved grape seedlings over to plant. "Xia Ruofei laughed." In the end, they grew too fast and scared Uncle Carter. "
Hearing this, Feng Jing couldn't help but laugh.
As one of the founding members of the Taoyuan Company, Feng Jing naturally knew about Xia Ruofei's capabilities. The various fruits and vegetables in Taoyuan Farm not only grew faster than their counterparts, but their quality was also much higher.
She was already used to it.
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Let's not talk about this. Manager Feng, I called you over today to ask about the acquisition of Hengli Building. It's been a week. Is there any progress?"
Feng Jing's expression became a little helpless. She smiled bitterly and shook her head. "Chairman, I didn't report to you in time because there hasn't been any substantial progress … Sigh! There's some unexpected resistance! "
