Chapter 104: Chapter 103: Opening the Workshop (One more update)
"Just like your family, let’s start with a small workshop." Although she has money now, it’s still far from enough to start a factory. Besides, she hasn’t been able to get a business license yet. Even if she could, she doesn’t want to be the standout target. They should start with a workshop to make some small money first.
"Alright, I’m familiar with these things. We’re on the same page, so I’ll start looking for a place right now. Let’s get to it." Li Congnan is someone who acts on impulse, full of energy.
"Great, we’re counting on Brother Li for this. Since we’re brewing wine, we’ll definitely need a wine-making machine. We can just buy one. Brother Li could first inquire if there are any machines for sale, a used one would work too." Everything is about saving costs. She needs to know how much a machine costs, how much a house costs, and how much they can invest.
After discussing with Li Congnan, Lin Wan went straight home. She needed to design labels and branding for the wine.
Now the plums, litchis, and mulberries are ripe. She can start with these fruit wines. novelbuddy-cσ๓
Lin Wan drafted a contract. When doing business together, the biggest taboo is unclear finances. It’s vital to clarify everything before partnering. Li Congnan also did his inquiries.
"A friend from my beer factory said their factory changed to a batch of new machines before the New Year. There are several old ones. He specifically asked their technician, who said they are all good. The factory leaders just wanted to earn some perks, so they replaced them. There’s not a single issue, and they’re three thousand each. What do you think?"
"I don’t know about such things either. If Brother Li thinks it’s suitable, we can buy one. Let your friend choose the best one for us and give the technicians a tip. It’d be best if they could guide us a bit."
"As long as you have no objections."
"How’s the house? Any prospects?"
"There is. There’s one, though a bit far, relatively desolate in the suburbs, but cheap. A row of eight rooms with a large yard, only forty a month. It used to be where the production team stayed, and it’s been abandoned since they left. Let’s find some time to check it out."
Hearing such a cheap rent, Lin Wan raised her eyebrows. So cheap?
That afternoon, they rode a tricycle to the suburbs. It turned out cheap places have their reasons. The house looked okay, but inside it was a mess, and half of the outer yard wall had collapsed. With some fixing up, it would be nice. Most importantly, there was a water well in the yard, and taps inside the house, which means they don’t need to pay for water usage. The house was only a bus stop distance from the main road. The surrounding area was somewhat desolate but still convenient.
The two decided to rent this place, paid a year’s rent to the landlord upfront.
Back at the store, Lin Wan handed her prepared contract to Li Congnan. Close brothers make clear accounts. They’re doing business together, so they must make everything clear.
All workshop expenses are split evenly between them, each holding 50% of the shares. The name was registered under her brother.
On that day, they discussed that their workshop’s name would be S City’s Wannan Fruit Wine Workshop. Each person would first put in three thousand yuan, and when it wasn’t enough, they’d talk again.
A few days later, Lin Wan told her brother and mom about the wine workshop she and Li Congnan set up.
This time, Liang Hongmei didn’t object, just advised them to be careful. Partnership businesses are not easy.
Lin Yinghui knew Li Congnan well and felt quite reassured.
Within days, her brother and Brother Li also went on holiday. From then on, Lin Yinghui and Li Congnan were handling all matters, while Lin Wan spent every day either at the store or at home brewing wine with her mom.
This time, Mom was not opposing like before, but rather enthusiastically helping them brew wine.
Li Congnan went to several nearby orchards to ask about prices, while Lin Yinghui was busy overseeing the workshop renovations.
