The Book of Mountains and Seas Takes Me to Get Rich

For this vertical farm, the pharmaceutical factory has already spent one billion yuan.Among them, the photovoltaic panels cost nearly [-] million yuan, the building construction cost [-] million yuan, and various instruments cost [-] million yuan.

After so much effort, it can finally be put into use.

Without even thinking about a ribbon-cutting ceremony, Fangyuan's first instruction after inspecting and accepting the farm was to quickly recall the [-] trained workers and [-] senior workers, start construction immediately, and plant Zhuyu grass and Xunyu grass. Yaocao.

It was already mid-November at this time, and the last batch of raw materials on the barren mountain was received as early as the beginning of last month.

Because the weather is getting colder, the sales volume of meal replacement capsules has dropped by nearly half compared to summer, but nearly 65 bottles were sold throughout October. One can imagine how intense the inventory depletion of the pharmaceutical factory is now?

The beauty pills have been limited in purchases for the past few months, but they still can’t stop the madness of beauty lovers. Last month, nearly a quarter of the new accounts of Treasure Hunting also joined the rush to buy, and sold nearly 50 bottles in a month...

Therefore, if the farm does not produce any more, the pharmaceutical factory may have to stop production next month, and the inventory will be sold out in January next year.

Fangyuan brought the person back, while Aimang had already prepared the concentrated growth liquid and shipped it to the farm warehouse.After the technicians arrived at the post, everyone was busy working together, mixing the growth liquid with the filtered groundwater in proportion, and filling the culture tanks on the six floors respectively.

Ai Mang prepared a sufficient amount of seeds early on, and kept them in the underground constant temperature warehouse of the pharmaceutical factory.Fangyuan took Professor Liu to check the quality of the seeds, and after confirming that there were no problems, they distributed them. Forty senior engineers led the rest of the workers to start breeding.

At this critical moment, Aimang also spends time on the farm with Fangyuan every day.With him around, the seeds germinated smoothly the next day.

Zhu Yucao and Xunyao Grass have strong vitality, and the growth liquid specially prepared by Ai Mang according to the needs is also very powerful.By the third day, most of the plants that had successfully germinated had grown four to five centimeters and were very healthy and growing well.

The workers replaced the few plants that failed to germinate with new seeds, and quickly filled all the vacancies.

It took only a week before and after, and then entered the vertical farm, the scene that greeted the eyes was no longer the cold factory wall, but the fresh green.

Now only the first to sixth floors are used in this farm, and the seventh floor and above are still vacant and unused.From the first floor to the third floor, Zhuyu grass is planted, and from the fourth floor to the sixth floor, Xunyao grass is planted.

The frame on each floor of the farm is very high, reaching a height of five meters.The thickness of the tray for cultivating plants is 65 centimeters, and the distance between the trays is about [-] centimeters. From the ground to the ceiling, a total of five layers can be put down.

The shelf for placing the trays is custom-made by Fangyuan from the manufacturer. The materials are particularly solid, and the distance between the trays can be adjusted to meet the needs of grown plants of different heights.

For the same five-story shelf, Fangyuan only made the quantity used for the six-story building.Because the next product project of the pharmaceutical factory is not yet determined, it is not yet certain what the floors above the seventh floor will be, and there will be time to order it if necessary.

When the farm was designed, the windows on each floor were kept relatively small, mainly for ventilation and adjustment of internal humidity, and the light source for photosynthesis was provided entirely by growth lamps.So except for the bottom layer of trays, LED grow lights are installed under each layer of trays and on the ceiling.Therefore, even if the outside of the farm is completely covered with photovoltaic panels, it will not affect the internal lighting problem.Judging from the growth of these two kinds of grasses, people are quite satisfied with this light source, and they grow fast and well. However, after more than a week, Xunyao grass has a faint tendency to set seeds.

Because the floors above the seventh floor have not been used yet, the current power generation of photovoltaic panels is enough for the farm to use, and it can also supply part of the No. [-] factory building for the production of meal replacement capsules and the No. [-] factory building for the production of Mingmu capsules. electricity.From this point of view, even if their farm is fully planted with raw materials in the future, the electricity generated by the existing photovoltaic panels of the pharmaceutical factory will almost be enough for the farm to consume.

In addition to the workers in white coats constantly shuttling between the tall steel shelves, there are actually small forklifts that can help them with their work.

These forklifts are actually battery cars, which are relatively small and can shuttle through the narrow aisles between the racks.Generally, one person controls the forklift, and the forklift is equipped with a fenced platform, which is convenient for the staff to go to the top to take care of the plants.

When it is time to harvest, the small harvester can be installed on the track reserved on the steel frame with a forklift, and the automatic harvesting will be carried out along the track, and the cut stems and leaves will be transported to the raw material box below by the conveying pipeline. .However, the roots of Zhuyu grass and Xunyao grass do not need to be replaced, but can grow again, and can be harvested again after a cycle.

Aimang has done experiments before, and in terms of the characteristics of Zhuyu Grass and Xunyao Grass, they can actually be harvested continuously for eight months, and then new seeds will be rotated for cultivation.However, if you want to maintain a relatively short harvest interval, you can replant a new one in about six months.

Therefore, with so many modern equipments, as long as the interval between harvesting and replacing new plants is mastered, the daily care work is actually not onerous.As far as the current 120 employees are concerned, as long as they are familiar with the operation mode of this farm, it will be no problem to take care of all the plants in the entire [-]-story farm in the future.

Fangyuan's favorite thing to do now is to wear a white dustproof suit every day, soak in this building with the farm staff, look at the vigorously growing raw materials, and feel the beauty in his heart, so don't mention it!

He waited and waited, until December [-]th, Xun Yaocao first wished Yucao a step forward, and could start harvesting for the first time!

Fang Yuan and Ai Mang, together with Professor Liu, helped with the work, and collected the Xun Yaocao on the two floors in a whole day.After working overtime for three hours at night, they collected all the mature Xunyao grass, and Ding Yi's quality inspection report came out.

"Senior," Ding Yi ran over to meet the vehicle delivering the raw materials, and handed Fang Yuan Qing Piao a few test results, "The results are out."

Fang Yuan quickly took it over: "Thank you! Professor, please take a look." He walked over to Professor Liu, and the two of them looked through it together. "The quality seems to be better than what we grow on the land?"

Professor Liu looked at the data carefully and nodded with satisfaction: "Indeed. Soilless cultivation has no pests, high nutrient utilization rate, and will not absorb pesticides and harmful substances left in the soil..." The old professor looked at it cheerfully. Glancing at Fangyuan, "Xiao Fang, it seems that you have to recalculate the dosage of the product. This batch of raw materials must be much better than the one you planted before!"

Ding Yi hurriedly reported: "Professor Liu, I have already put the sample into the instrument to start testing before I get off work, and the results have come out!" He happily said to Fangyuan, "Senior, if you follow the Meiyan Pill Based on efficacy calculations, the dosage of products produced with this batch of raw materials can be only five-sixth of the original dosage!"

Ai Mang heard: "That means saving one-sixth of the dosage?"

Fang Yuan was very happy when he heard the words, and patted Ding Yi on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work! This is good news." Several people walked out talking and laughing, Fang Yuan did some calculations, "I did the calculations before, this batch of raw materials is about It is enough to produce 110 million bottles of beauty pills. But if the raw materials can be saved by one-sixth... this batch of raw materials can produce nearly 130 million bottles of products!"

Professor Liu laughed and said, "Congratulations! Hey, Xiao Fang, then the purchase limit of Beauty Pills won't be so severe, right? My boss is getting old, and I have to do shopping for my daughter and colleagues. I'm really busy! "

Fang Yuan laughed loudly: "Tomorrow I will tell Wang Tao that the purchase limit will be lifted to three bottles a month first! I am afraid that if all of them are suddenly released, whether these ingredients can really withstand it is uncertain!"

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Ai Mang raised his mouth: "Professor, I think according to the growth of Xunyao grass, the next harvest interval may be less than 20 days."

Professor Liu glanced at the proud student with relief, and nodded: "You are right. Because you don't need to grow from seeds, you just need to cut off a crop and grow it. It is estimated that it will grow to maturity again in fifteen to seventeen days." The old man The professor glanced at Fangyuan with a smile, "Factory Director Fang, with this experience, the employees have become proficient. I think the density of the steel frame can be even higher."

Fang Yuan's eyes lit up: "You mean, can the side-by-side steel frames be brought closer together?"

Professor Liu nodded: "You have seen the harvesting situation today. This steel frame is well designed. Even if two steel frames are side by side, it will not affect the running track of the harvester."

Ai Mang smiled: "In this way, we can add nearly a dozen or twenty steel frames to each floor."

"Then," Ding Yi asked half-understanding, "How much more raw materials can you charge?"

Fang Yuan and Professor Liu looked at each other, and said with a smile: "Now there are [-] steel frames on each floor, and if we add [-] more, the production capacity will be increased to [-] times of the original!"

Professor Liu was very happy today, but he still added a sentence rigorously: "But we can't just add it when we think about it. I don't understand architecture, and I don't know how much the building can bear? Our big steel frame, plus the culture medium What, this is very heavy. Xiao Fang, you'd better ask the engineers at the design institute."

In fact, when this vertical farm was built, the extreme load-bearing problem was considered, but Fang Yuan was a little uncertain, so he nodded: "Okay, I will contact the design institute tomorrow and ask them to help me with the calculation."

Several people talked and laughed and walked out of the farm building.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and the temperature in City A was already very low.Coming out of the warm farm building, the feeling of inhaling the cold air into the lungs was very exciting, but Fang Yuan could only feel excitement.

For the whole month of October, the profit of the pharmaceutical factory reached an unprecedented [-] million.Now that the output of Xunyao grass is so large, and the next harvest is expected to be so short, Fangyuan is really relieved!

Everyone was happy. Seeing the old professor working with them all day, Fang Yuan wanted to invite the professor to have a meal together.In the end, the old professor just wanted to go home and rest, so Fang Yuan simply drove the professor home with Emmentine.

The three of them, plus Zang Ming and Mao Baolin, simply ate something in a hurry at the small restaurant downstairs of the professor's house, and then took Ding Yi back by the way, and Fangyuan Aimang arrived home directly.

It was almost eleven o'clock when we entered the door.According to the general situation, it is usually time for them to rest at this time.

After washing up lightly, Fang Yuan pushed open the door of his younger brother, and the boy was sound asleep, very sweet.

Closing the door as silently as possible, Fang Yuan turned around and followed Ai Mang back to the bedroom: "When I get busy, I can't care about last week. I'm bothering Da Zhuang to pick up the kids from school today, isn't it a little too much for us?"

Ai Mang lifted the quilt on the bed and asked him to lie in and cover it up, and then lay down next to Fangyuan: "The busiest time is over, and we can go to and from get off work on time, and we will have time to pick him up from school. "

"Hey..." Fang Yuan moved back and forth for a long time before finding the most comfortable position, and his eyelids immediately became heavy, "Well, I'll pick him up from school tomorrow... By the way, how is your work going?"

Ai Mang gently tucked in the quilt for him: "The results will be produced in about two days. I will plant it tomorrow and try it out, and then I can determine the batch ratio of the genes..." Ai Mang turned his head to look Looking at Fangyuan, whose breathing has slowed down significantly.

Hehe, fell asleep...

Climbing up and down, constantly installing and unloading the harvester, and helping to transport the raw material boxes to freeze-drying, this day is also tiring.After a quiet night, both of them slept well, and when they woke up in the morning, they felt energetic again.

After experiencing a harvest, I completely let go of the big stone in my heart, and I feel refreshed.

Happily eating breakfast, he sent his younger brother to school. Fangyuan and Aimang separated. One went to the research institute to continue cultivating new plants, and the other rushed back to the pharmaceutical factory to call the managers for a meeting.

Now that the Xun Yao grass has already started to be harvested, starting from today, it will be on the agenda to fully produce the beauty pills.Ding Yi will soon be able to determine the dosage of new raw materials, so starting today, the Meiyan Pill workshop will go all out in production, consuming the original raw materials of Xunyao Grass.When all the old raw materials are produced, it is necessary to adjust the new dosage and start production.

The production plan was explained here, and Wang Tao's side will also release the purchase limit from the next day.

The 10-minute small meeting was very efficient. Fangyuan distributed the work tasks for the next period of time to various departments, and soon the whole factory became busy.

First, on the sales side, Wang Tao sent three notifications in the morning, afternoon and evening. From [-]:[-] am the next day, the monthly limit of Xunyao Beauty Pills has been released to three bottles per ID.At the same time, Wang Tao also specially hired a photographer to enter the vertical farm to take photos and add them to the product introduction on the treasure hunt page to enrich the detailed introduction page of their online store.

The movement here is fast, and the movement of the factory is not slow.

Since the construction of the new factory, due to the long-term shortage of raw materials, Fangyuan has never dared to let go of the factory to produce at full capacity. These digital workshops have never been fully operational.They should still be able to produce 50 bottles of the remaining raw materials, and according to the production capacity, they can produce [-] bottles a day without any problem.

However, after calculation and discussion, Fangyuan still did not calculate according to the limit production capacity, but made a decision to start the machine for [-] hours a day and produce [-] bottles.

Originally, they had reserved personnel, but now they have prepared two more people for each position in each factory building.Even if some people were transferred from the vertical farm before, it can still guarantee one or two more employees for each position.

Since Han Lixin came to the pharmaceutical factory, he found that due to the limitation of raw materials, the production capacity cannot be increased too much, and there are still too many people on the post, so the current work efficiency of the pharmaceutical factory is actually a bit low.When you think about going to work, workers have time to chat, which is not a good thing.

Fangyuan has also realized this problem recently, but he hasn't come up with a solution with Han Lixin yet. The raw materials from the farm have solved the problem logically.

Han Lixin made adjustments almost immediately, and all employees worked in two shifts. Except for the Mingmu Capsule workshop, which could not increase production due to raw material problems, the other two workshops had morning shifts, early arrivals, evening shifts and late departures. The machines worked twelve hours a day. Production is in full swing!As for the extra manpower in the Mingmu Capsule workshop, the other two workshops were involved in the scheduling during this period.

With such a change, there is almost one more manpower for every three posts.Change the rest time again, and there will be no idlers anymore.It is only at this time that the work efficiency of the pharmaceutical factory is fully developed.

Fang Yuan didn't have to worry about the work in the workshop with Han Lixin, a man of great skill, watching over him; and the sales side was controlled by Wang Tao, so it wasn't a problem at all.Fang Yuan started to help the staff of the vertical farm to harvest the remaining grasses again.

This batch of Zhuyu grass was fully mature three days later than Xunyao grass.It took Fangyuan two days to harvest Zhuyu grass, and Ding Yi recalculated the dosage of the meal replacement capsules, and the new raw materials were quickly put into production.

With the continuous production of products, the purchase restriction policy of meal replacement capsules and beauty pills was gradually released within two weeks.

By the end of December, these two products will no longer require purchase restrictions.

Taking inventory on New Year's Day, the sales of meal replacement capsules and beauty pills reached a new peak throughout December due to the cancellation of purchase restrictions!The monthly sales of meal replacement capsules reached 73 bottles, and the sales of beauty pills reached a terrifying [-] million bottles...

Adding 31 bottles of Mingmu Capsules, the sales of the pharmaceutical factory in December reached [-] million!

But this is not the case again.This time, everyone was so tossed by the purchase restriction. As soon as the purchase restriction was lifted, they frantically hoarded goods and the sales soared. However, in the next January, it is estimated that there will be a cliff-like decline.

Under normal circumstances, among the several products of the pharmaceutical factory, the market for Mingmu capsules has been shrinking.After all, Mingmu Capsules are not a long-term use product, and one person can eat two or three bottles at most, so there is no need to buy any more.Therefore, if Mingmu Capsules cannot open up other markets, the monthly sales will gradually decline.

Since the meal replacement capsules were launched three years ago, the purchase limit has basically been restricted all the year round, and the limit has been released only after the vertical farm has produced output.The users of meal replacement capsules are relatively fixed and have a good reputation. After three years of development, the number of users is steadily increasing.It is expected that if the market does not undergo major changes in the future, the sales volume of meal replacement capsules will gradually increase by 55% to [-]% per year.Basically, in the first quarter of the new year, monthly sales can reach around [-] to [-] bottles.

As for the beauty pills, after seven months of word-of-mouth, and the previous policy of limiting purchases to one bottle per month, the actual usage quantity is actually more difficult to calculate.When there was no purchase limit, more than 40 bottles of Meiyan Wan could be sold every month.After a month of crazy sales in December, it is expected that when everyone calms down and the data returns to normal, it will not be shown until the second quarter of the new year.

However, according to previous data, it is relatively normal for Meiyan Pills to sell 55 bottles per month.

After Wang Tao's report was over, a new pressure fell on Fang Yuan.

As I said before, because the raw materials are very sufficient at this stage, in fact, the production capacity of the workshops that produce meal replacement capsules and beauty pills is actually a bit excess.

Their factory now produces these two products, each of which can produce more than 5 bottles a day, which is 150 million bottles in a month!And how much can they sell?Less than 60 bottles!Didn't this cause an inventory backlog of 90 bottles?

Fangyuan was so frightened that he quickly asked Han Lixin to slow down the production, and now the production has resumed to [-] bottles per day.It won't be too late to expand production after he has contacted overseas sales channels!

After the meeting, Fang Yuan sat worrying—this is the time when there is no raw material, and he is thinking about tossing the vertical farm just to supply the raw material.As a result, the farm is doing well now, but he is worried about sales. What is this?It's just sweet troubles, sugar mixed with glass shards...

I was still talking about this with Ai Mang when I got home, but Ai Mang came back with one sentence: "Didn't you agree to Wang Xiaomin's father to develop business in the eleventh district? Now that the production capacity is over, isn't it just right?" Is it time to promote it outside?"

Fang Yuanxin said, I haven't said that yet, should I whisper this to you first?

As soon as Ai Mang saw his ecstatic little white eyes, he was happy: "Okay, I'm talking too much, you go on."

Fang Yuan laughed angrily at him, his shoulders slumped and he said helplessly: "I've finished what I should have said, and you have added what I didn't say, so what else should I say?" He snorted, "You are the one, right? Is there something good? Suddenly became impatient today?"

"It's a good thing!" Aimang had actually been waiting to tell him the good news, and seeing him ask, he quickly said: "New plants for pollution control have been bred!"

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Fangyuan: I...

Aimang: You worry when the production capacity is insufficient, but you also worry when the production capacity increases, right?

Fangyuan: Then...

Aimang: Then simply promote it to overseas markets and open up new profit points, right?

Fangyuan: You...

Aimang: You decided that I will definitely support you!

Fangyuan: Fall!I let you say it all!Are you the roundworm in my stomach?

Ai Mang: Anyway, it's all work in the intestines, and I didn't miss it, no, who can be with whom?

Fangyuan: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! !I want to get off! ! !
