The cost of making baijiu is incredibly low! Han Songlin knows the selling price of baijiu from the largest domestic raw spirit manufacturer.
It's usually 35,000 yuan per ton!
The raw spirit from this factory is better, so the price is a bit higher, while the raw spirit from some smaller factories is only about 20,000 yuan per ton.
All raw spirits are high-proof spirits, basically above 50-60 degrees.
If you buy raw spirits from a raw spirit factory, take them back, mix them up a bit, and then fill them, you can sell them.
By mixing here, I don't mean mixing with edible alcohol, but mixing with the spirits you produce yourself.
Generally, spirits that cost a hundred yuan or more are grain spirits, made using the solid-state brewing process.
Han Songlin silently pondered the future development of the liquor industry.
From 1980 to 1996, it was a period of rapid expansion of the Chinese liquor industry.
By 1996, China's liquor production had reached 8 million tons!
There were small breweries everywhere.
There were also various large breweries!
Wait, there aren't that many well-known national liquor brands, are there?
The development of the liquor industry is basically in sync with the economic development trend of China. From 1997 to 2004, the liquor industry had a hard time.
From 2005 to 2012, there was another period of rapid development.
From 2013 to 2019, the liquor industry was not doing so well.
But in 2020, the liquor industry began to recover strongly, and liquor sales increased significantly.
Han Songlin silently recalled the information he had read, and his heart continued to ponder.
Liquor really seemed like a promising and profitable business.
In particular, if you control both the production and sales ends!
A bottle of liquor that costs 1,000 yuan may have a factory price of only 500 yuan, and the remaining 500 yuan is all profit for the distributor.
So, it is very profitable.
'Mr. Han, Mr. Han?'
Han Songlin smiled: 'Sorry, I was thinking about something and got carried away!'
'That's okay, so shall I continue?' Cheng Jiajia couldn't show her anger, even though she was angry inside.
Perhaps Han Songlin was thinking about the winery!
Han Songlin: 'Brother Jia, to be honest, it's useless to talk about it any more now! How about this: I'll take the information back and take a look at it slowly; then I'll give you an answer in a couple of days, what do you think?'
Jia Yuanshan's fat face broke into a smile: 'Sure, I'm here whenever you need me! Wait, let's exchange phone numbers so we can get in touch in the future!'
It was obvious that Han Songlin seemed interested in the winery!
After a meal, they saw Jia Yuanshan and Cheng Jiajia off; Han Songlin and Deng Yingxiu stood at the door without leaving.
Deng Yingxiu said with some concern, 'You really are interested in the winery, aren't you?'
Han Songlin flicked the toothpick from his hand, 'I don't know, I haven't even seen the factory yet, so let's wait and see!'
Deng Yingxiu looked at Han Songlin deeply. To be honest, if Jia Yuanshan hadn't mentioned it, he really wouldn't have imagined that Han Songlin had started such a great business in just a few months.
Deng Yingxiu wanted to persuade him, but in the end, he didn't say anything; someone who could build such a great business would definitely not do something rash.
Deng Yingxiu still had to go back to work at the water plant in the afternoon, so he left first.
Han Songlin put the information on the Leshui Distillery on the passenger seat and drove home.
Drinking and driving?
This is the last thing Han Songlin wants, but now he is living the life he hates.
Luckily, there are very few cars in the county town.
Han Songlin is still very clear-headed and drives slowly.
When he gets home, Liu Yuyan wrinkles her nose at the smell of alcohol and tobacco on Han Songlin.
'Don't frown, wife, it doesn't look good!'
Liu Yuyan: 'I told you not to drink!'
'It's not like I had a choice, it was a business dinner, and where there's drinking, there's bound to be a lot of it!'
Liu Yuyan nudged Han Songlin, who was sitting on the sofa, and said, 'Go boil some water and take a shower, you stink!'
Han Songlin not only smelled of alcohol, but also of smoke!
Liu Yuyan knew that Han Songlin didn't smoke, so it was needless to say where the smell of smoke came from.
Han Songlin went to wash up, changed his clothes, and then sat down next to Liu Yuyan.
Liu Yuyan leaned over naturally, but her eyes were fixed on the TV; a TV drama was playing!
'What did Dengge want with you?'
'Just to introduce me to a bank manager from CCB.'
Liu Yuyan: 'You want a loan?'
'Why a loan? We don't need money right now.' Han Songlin really hadn't had any intention of taking out a loan.
Even if he had known, it would have been quite easy to get a loan at the current time.
Han's braised food business was expanding, and it was possible to do so with just its own capital.
After all, it is really not too easy to open a braised food shop.
It does not require much skill and can be quickly replicated across the country.
The only limitations now are a bit of worry about management on Han Songlin's part, and a bit of concern about hygiene.
In the food industry, hygiene and safety are definitely the top priorities.
'Well, there has to be something, right?'
Han Songlin picked up the information on the coffee table and showed it to Liu Yuyan.
'This is the information on Leshui Winery, you can take a look!'
Liu Yuyan took it with confusion and said, 'Isn't Leshui Distillery already closed down?'
'Even if it's closed down, the factory building is still there!'
In other words, in the last life, when Leshui Distillery closed down, what was the factory building used for?
Han Songlin really didn't know about this.
Another thing to mention is that, in the entire liquor industry, it is very common for many award-winning distilleries of national and ministerial excellence to be overturned due to various inabilities to adapt to competition in the wave of the market economy.
Therefore, Leshui Distillery can only be considered an ordinary boat that has capsized in the waves of the times.
What is the problem with Leshui Distillery now?
Han Songlin can see clearly that, to put it bluntly, there is no more capital.
The break in the capital chain is the main reason why many companies have gone from glory to ruin.
Therefore, in the future, many companies will be stockpiling cash; the fruit company is a representative example.
'You don't want to take over Leshui Winery, do you?' asked Liu Yuyan, slightly alarmed. Leshui Winery owed tens of millions of yuan.
The thought of shouldering such a large amount of external debt made Liu Yuyan feel a little breathless.
Han Songlin noticed Liu Yuyan's nervousness and gently reassured her, 'Don't worry, just listen to me!'
'We now have more than 100 Han's Delicacies stores! Each store can earn 500 yuan a day, excluding wages and other costs. 100 stores means 50,000 yuan a day. How much is that a month?'
'1.5 million yuan! A month, we can earn 1.5 million yuan. How about a year? 18 million yuan.'
'And, we are still constantly expanding the number of stores. If we have two hundred stores, we can earn 36 million a year. How about a thousand stores? That's 180 million a year.'
'So, 20 to 30 million is nothing for us.'
Liu Yuyan blinked furiously. After Han Songlin did the math, it seemed to make sense.
Our family is already so rich?
