To Liang Xiaohai, this matter was of course the most important.
Now that it had been perfectly resolved, regardless of whether they were truly appeased, it was a cause for celebration.
Up to this point, the involvement of the Su family had already caused unease among many in the factory. As soon as this good news was spread, it was easy to imagine how happy everyone would be.
Yu Zhou also knew this outcome, so when Wu Dabiao and Qin Feng were about to spread the word, he had no intention of stopping them.
This was a victory, a victory for the dried fruit factory, even if it wasn't considered perfect.
But as long as there were benefits, for them, this was definitely a good thing.
"Imitations will definitely not reappear in a short time. Even those who want to enter this industry will likely be hesitant because of the Su family's involvement."
"We can take this opportunity to firmly establish ourselves in the market. For us, this is a rare good opportunity!"
At this moment, Yu Zhou was also happy for a while.
Just as he had said, if nothing unexpected happened in the coming period, things would be stable.
They could even capture more market share. With this approach, no matter how much was done, it would be considered very secure.
Naturally, Yu Zhou also began to plan for the future.
"No matter what, now is the best time for the factory's development, both for you and me, and for the other factory employees."
"I just wonder if the director has any plans?"
After a moment of silence, Liang Xiaohai still wore a smile. In his opinion, this was a very stable period, and the factory's prestige was high. As long as they seized the opportunity, establishing a brand with just one brand of sunflower seeds wouldn't be too difficult.
Especially at this critical juncture, once such a possibility arose, a small factory could naturally develop into a large company.
Before, he hadn't been too optimistic about the sunflower seed market. However, with the proliferation of supermarkets and small convenience stores, he had to look at sunflower seeds with a new perspective.
In a not-too-long period, large supermarkets and convenience stores had appeared in the market in large numbers. Naturally, for many people, this presented opportunities.
"There are plans, and I've been thinking about them all along. However, now that things have stabilized, they can indeed be implemented."
Yu Zhou naturally had a set of plans. Otherwise, how would he dare to say that he could develop the dried fruit factory into a top-tier enterprise?
However, these plans were not easy to implement in a short period before.
Especially under unstable conditions, it was even more so.
Therefore, Yu Zhou had never even mentioned them before, only thinking about them in his heart. Now, looking at the situation, there were unlikely to be any major issues in a short period, so it was time to bring them up.
"Really?"
Liang Xiaohai was taken aback. He had just said it casually, how could he have known that Yu Zhou actually had plans?
At that moment, he became excited. He didn't care that there were many factory managers present. His expression was as if he was ready to go all out.
"Of course, do you think I would have taken over such a large factory without any plans?"
"If I just went with the flow without a plan, wouldn't I lose a fortune?"
Seeing everyone's expression, Yu Zhou felt a bit amused and helpless. He knew very well that even now, the managers in these factories couldn't unconditionally trust him.
He was indeed their boss, but if he couldn't provide them with stable wages and reasonable profits, abandoning him would only be a matter of minutes.
That was the nature of things. Conversely, if they couldn't satisfy Yu Zhou, how could Yu Zhou, as the true boss, let them off the hook?
Work was essentially a relationship of mutual utilization. If Yu Zhou didn't pay them, who would listen to him?
"What's the method, and what do we need to do?"
Liang Xiaohai was very excited. He knew that working with Yu Zhou to manage the dried fruit factory was a very promising venture. However, he was not entirely sure how successful he could make the dried fruit factory.
Now, with Yu Zhou's involvement, the dried fruit factory was visibly growing stronger, and the boss's authority naturally increased.
"How much money can our factory afford to allocate now? I mean cash flow!"
"After more than a month, a lot of payment for goods must have been received, right?"
Yu Zhou pondered for a moment and then asked directly.
To him, this money was of immense value, especially during this critical period. If used well, it could create a huge brand for the entire sunflower seed industry.
Wasn't this what Yu Zhou had been striving for? Naturally, at this critical moment, he had to let others know that his efforts were worthwhile.
"In total, it's a little over 200,000 yuan. Salaries have been paid, and a few tens of thousands are kept for employee salaries."
"We can use about 150,000 yuan."
After contemplating for a while, Liang Xiaohai replied.
He didn't know what Yu Zhou wanted to do, but if he asked about the financial situation, that was all he could provide.
Compared to the current massive profits, the actual cash received since the sunflower seeds were launched wasn't much.
Most businesses, and even supply and marketing cooperatives, only paid a portion in cash, with the rest settled quarterly.
This debt issue was a common problem for factories at the moment. Fortunately, their partner was the supply and marketing cooperative.
As one of the few profitable enterprises among state-owned units to this day, payment delays were indeed not significant.
It was precisely because the dried fruit factory had no intermediaries. Many old factories couldn't even imagine this.
This was their advantage, and it was also what Yu Zhou felt most proud of at the moment.
"However, if you need it, and it's not enough, the state bank has actually approached us."
"Because our development momentum is good, it's not difficult to get a loan at all!"
At this point, Liang Xiaohai continued.
Obviously, these words were spoken with a strong sense of pride from his heart.
