Chapter 413: Equipment in Place!
Li Yi had just left the village hall when he ran into Wei Sanpao, who had just finished making a bunch of phone calls. Read
"Brother Yi, I found the equipment!"
Li Yi was immediately delighted and asked hurriedly: "What about the price? Is it expensive?"
"Not expensive, this equipment is very cheap, more than a thousand yuan per unit, and a hundred units should not be a big number for us!"
More than a thousand yuan per unit, and it is a large screw extruder, which is a great value no matter how you look at it!
The industrial level of this era is not very developed. For light industrial machines like this, basically all the technology is in the hands of the islanders, and generally there is no opportunity to learn it!
But the Dragon people are still Dragon people after all. After repeated disassembly and assembly, they finally figured out the principle!
Although it is just the beginning stage, there is a big gap in price. The truly high-level screw extruders are priced between five hundred and three hundred, and the technology is more sophisticated and the volume is smaller.
This news reminded Li Yi of a sentence in his previous life. Longguo is a crusher of developed countries. If any industry is intervened by Longguo people, it will inevitably be made into a bargain price.
For a long time, everyone has a misunderstanding that Western developed countries have good welfare and high wages. In fact, they have mastered the source technology of various industries and held it tightly, making the world their factory, and they make huge profits from it.
This is the root cause of their good life, and now Longguo is a crusher of developed countries. The constantly innovative technology has crushed the barriers of Western countries.
Take the switch in the communication field as an example. Around the millennium, a board cost at least 200,000, and in the first decade of the 21st century, it dropped directly to 100,000 because of the intervention of Longguo people.
This is normal technological progress, but please note that it is not that the technology used is so NB, but that it has been mature for more than ten years.
But they have a monopoly on technology, so they can reduce the price by half in 5 years.
However, the most pitfall is the guide plate, which is an iron plate used to fill empty slots, guide airflow, and control the temperature of equipment. 35 US dollars a piece, weighing 1 jin, and not stainless steel, and the price has not dropped for many years.
Can you say this is good technology?
But they monopolize the switch technology, they don't recognize other brands, if you dare to install it yourself, they will not provide warranty for the whole machine.
Later, when domestic switches began to have mid-to-high-end products. It's just that there are too many bugs, but the price is low, so it started to be used in some small cities.
After 3 years of use, it is more stable, and the failure rate is half of that of European and American products.
As soon as this result came out, the price of imported switches began to dive. A board worth 100,000 yuan will cost 10,000 yuan after 5 years, and after another 5 years, many European and American factories have closed down and disappeared.
As for the 35 US dollar iron plate, it was directly given away for free!
Later it was made clear that it was okay without the iron plate, so don't equip it.
The same is true for the screw extruder. The technology of the Japanese has been broken through by the Chinese, and soon this thing will also be greatly reduced in price. This is the trend.
And Li Yi is just making a spicy strip at the moment. The most important thing is the taste, not how powerful the machine is!
But...
Li Yi frowned and thought for a while. The area of Jinyuan Meat Processing Plant is still considerable. Although it was later demolished and a bedding factory was built, since it is in his hands, it must play a greater role than the bedding factory.
Is it a waste of space to just build a hundred screw extruders for making spicy strips?
Then Li Yi turned around and asked: "Does the manufacturer you mentioned have extruders, conveyor belts, stainless steel filters and other equipment? Those for making instant noodles?"
Hearing Li Yi's words, Wei Sanpao was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't keep up with Li Yi's thinking speed.
We were just talking about spicy strips, why did we turn around and start talking about instant noodles?
The current sales of instant noodles are not small, why does Li Yi want to make instant noodles?
It's hard to keep up with some instant noodle manufacturers now, because they started too late!
Instant noodles were created as early as 1958, right?
But Wei Sanpao didn't know what Li Yi was thinking!
Bag instant noodles are indeed very popular, but it is not yet the time for barrel instant noodles to prevail!
Sometimes the most eye-catching thing is some details!
For example, some large bowls of mixed noodles, gluten, and large bowls of barrel instant noodles can all be made! And some of them are not seen at all in this era!
Especially the novel and convenient way of eating mixed noodles, which is even faster and faster than instant noodles!
The noodles are cooked, just pour them into hot water and soak them for one or two minutes, and they can be eaten immediately! And the seasoning package inside is very fragrant no matter how you mix it, this is the problem!
I believe that this product will still have a good market once it is promoted!
However, before that, some detailed market research is still needed. If this project is done well, it will not be a problem for the villagers of Kaoshan Village to get rich!
After all, rebuilding Kaoshan Village cannot rely solely on Li Yi's money, which just caters to Li Yi's previous saying that it is better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish!
"Sanpao, that's it. Go talk to that machinery manufacturer. We want all the equipment needed to make instant noodles! We want a full set! And packaging machines! We want a large quantity! At least 300 units!"
Starting with 300 packaging machines? This number is really a bit large, but the Jinyuan Meat Processing Plant can accommodate more than 1,500 employees to work at the same time. In this way, the villagers in the mountain village are not enough, and more people need to be recruited. As long as people can be recruited, there will be no big problem and the factory can be operated.
In this way, it can't be called a spicy strip factory, it should be a noodle food processing factory!
Thinking of this, Li Yi smacked his lips. In this way, the initial investment will cost a lot of money, but after it is built, the income will definitely increase slowly!
"Brother Yi, are you sure? If you are sure, I will call now!"
Li Yi smiled and nodded, and said: "Remember to ask him to give us a cheaper price! We have bought so many equipments, how can we not get a cheaper price? We must get the discounts we should get, remember to ask him to send it directly to the Jinyuan Meat Processing Plant!"
Wei Sanpao said he understood, turned around and went to the phone booth to make a call again.
Seeing Wei Sanpao's figure, Li Yi sighed slowly, wondering when the era of developed personal mobile devices would come.
By that time, everyone had a mobile phone like Xiaolingtong, which was much more convenient and fast. People nowadays had no way of imagining what life would be like in the future, and they would not even think that they would only need a mobile phone in the future, and an ID card. They no longer needed to buy train tickets or pay with cash. Everything became mobile payment. It seemed like something far away, but it was actually right in front of them.
Turning around and coming to the mayor's house, Li Yi lived next to the mayor's house during this period, in a family with only a mother and son.
Compared with the mayor's house, this house was much worse. There was no large courtyard with three entrances, and there were no lotus flowers in the courtyard for viewing. However, Li Yi just liked this style. The mayor's house was occupied by the old village chief and several elderly people, and Li Yi was not good at going in to disturb them. Such a simple residence was enough.
Although the town had electricity and most families had electric lights, this family was very strange. They had been reluctant to use them. That is, when Li Yi came back, they would turn on the lights.
As for why Li Yi could tell, it was because in the small room where he lived, there was a simple wooden bed and a set of tables. The table was placed by the window. During the day, he could read books with the help of the sunlight outside the window, and at night, he basically relied on a small kerosene lamp.
This kerosene lamp looked like it had been used recently, but the tungsten filament inside the bulb did not have many signs of use, which made it easy to distinguish.
In this family, the mother's surname was Zhao, Zhao Lanzhi, and the child had the same surname as his father, Du, and was called Du Rong.
Du Rong was a very smart child. His mother said that the child's academic performance was okay. Du Rong's father went to sea to work as a crew member on a ship. This profession basically meant that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. Du Rong didn't even know whether his father was still alive.
Du Rong was now twelve years old and very sensible. He could even help his mother twist the wick. Compared with ordinary children who were still distressed at the age of twelve, little Du Rong was a little mature and distressing.
Although the town was not big, there was a clear distinction between the rich and the poor. Du Rong's family should be the worst.
But what's strange is that Li Yi had no intention of supporting Du Rong's family, but only gave them the 120 yuan per month that they should have paid.
