Ideals and Ambitions

After adjusting some of the sales department's business.

Jiang Miao didn't pay too much attention to the sales department's thoughts.

After all, Hai Lu Feng Company is different from other companies. As a technology company, its core competitiveness is its products, not sales.

He divided the sales department internally and simultaneously supported the Online Store Department. His purpose was to prevent one department from becoming too dominant, and also for Li Zhou's sake, so that he wouldn't think the company couldn't function without him.

Although doing this would inevitably lead to conflicts within the sales department and between the sales department and the Online Store Department in the future, balancing the power of the various departments within the company was a necessary skill for him as the boss.

Soon after, Ye Meijing also came to report.

"Boss, this is the company's financial statement for this month. Please take a look."

Jiang Miao flipped through it, felt there wasn't much discrepancy, and nodded: "Okay, the company doesn't need to evade taxes. There's no need to leave a hidden danger for the company for a little bit of money. Reasonable tax avoidance methods can be used, but those with hidden dangers should not be used."

"OK." After several months of practice, Ye Meijing actually didn't have the means to evade taxes. She was worried that the boss would force her into it, and now she finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least she didn't have to worry and be afraid.

After all, finance and accounting are sometimes caught between the boss and the tax authorities, which is truly a dilemma.

If you do it, the boss drives a Mercedes, and the accountant takes the blame.

If you don't do it, the boss fires you.

In fact, since Hai Lu Feng Company is a sole proprietorship, it does not pay corporate income tax, but rather individual income tax.

And Hai Lu Feng Company's annual net profit definitely exceeds 100,000, so the standard for individual income tax is 35% of the net profit.

Jiang Miao didn't feel any pain about this.

After all, if a company doesn't pay taxes or pays less tax, it certainly seems beneficial to the company, but the consequence of doing so is that the national treasury cannot form a cycle, which in turn affects the overall economy and local economy.

When the nest is overturned, no egg is left intact.

If the country experiences an economic crisis, the first to die will definitely be private enterprises.

As for the idea of running away, just think about it. Do you really think Europe and America are running charities? Chinese people cannot integrate into the top circles of Europe and America; instead, they will become fat pigs.

For Jiang Miao, the money he has in this life is actually enough. If he sells the company now, he can get at least several hundred million, which is enough for him and his family to live comfortably for a lifetime.

Therefore, what he wants to do more now is to achieve his ideals and ambitions while making money, and to be a person who is free from low-level interests.

After Ye Meijing left.

The heads of other departments also came to report one after another.

Until five o'clock in the evening.

"Boss, do you have time?"

"Yes, what is it? I'm in the headquarters office."

"I want to talk about adjusting the business of the Eel Cannery."

"Then come over! I'll wait for you."

Ten minutes later, Li Xinhua rushed from the cannery to his office.

"Sit down, we'll have dinner together after we finish talking."

"Okay." After sitting down, Li Xinhua took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and went straight to the point: "Boss, I've been looking at the sales situation of the Online Store Department these past few days and found that many Japanese restaurants have ordered our Braised Eel Canned Food. I think this is an opportunity."

Jiang Miao filled his teacup: "Tell me about it."

"This is what I'm thinking. Currently, 90% of the Japanese restaurants on the market actually use pre-cooked eel instead of live eel. These pre-cooked eels are like this..." Li Xinhua said while taking out his phone to show Jiang Miao.

On the phone screen were pre-cooked eels sold on Taobao, packaged in plastic bags.

There were two types: one was Kabayaki eel that had been frozen, and the other was raw eel that had not been processed and was directly frozen.

Looking at the sales volume, the wholesale price was decent.

"Go ahead and try it! If it fails, at most we'll lose a few hundred thousand, the company can still afford the loss."

"Thank you for your support, Boss. I will definitely lead the cannery to keep up the good work." Li Xinhua naturally knew that the company's main business was eel fry, and eel canned food was just a byproduct, but he was unwilling to let it continue like this.

Moreover, since the company's main business was not eel canned food, the company could withstand the failure of the cannery and would not be severely impacted by it. There was a high probability that they would not oppose him trying new ventures.

Clearly, Li Xinhua had guessed correctly.

After the two finished discussing this matter, the sun was also about to set.

They went to the canteen on the first floor together.

Considering that the company had more and more people, the canteen also added two more people. Aunt Li was in charge of cooking, one person washed dishes, and one person cut vegetables.

His mother and sister did cleaning and also helped with other tasks in the kitchen.

Employees from the farm and the cannery would also come to the company headquarters to eat, as it was only about a ten-minute journey.

However, the cannery did not operate at night, with only one security guard on night duty.

The farm still needed quite a few people at night, so after his father came to the company headquarters to eat, he would pack the food in stainless steel lunch boxes and then drive a tricycle to the farm for the other employees to eat. At the same time, he would drop off a box of food for the security guard at the cannery along the way.

Since the company did not charge for meals, many local employees chose to come and eat.

However, Jiang Miao was very strict about the standard of the meals. Not only were the ingredients required to be relatively good, but he also formulated a special menu.

Using the convenience of the appraisal panel, he calculated the nutrients of each lunch box, ensuring a balanced diet of carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, and trace elements.

Of course, different types of work were taken into consideration.

Among the daily meal options, there were three types: "Heavy Labor Meal," "Clerk Meal," and "Senior Employee Meal."

The Senior Employee Meal was actually specially prepared for Jiang Miao's parents and the few disabled security guards. It was only changed to Senior Employee Meal because "Elderly Meal" didn't sound good.

Even the Heavy Labor Meal was actually arranged very healthily, reasonably avoiding too much single carbohydrate, protein, or fat, but adding a little of everything, along with a large amount of vegetables.

A reasonable diet is more important than taking medicine.

If you overeat all day, have seafood, fatty meat, and beer every now and then, smoke cigarettes and chew betel nuts, and drink beverages like water, then even immortals would be useless.

He couldn't control others, but for the company's employees, Jiang Miao was dedicated.

For example, for the monthly group activity, he arranged a package deal of foot baths, massages, and movies for the employees doing physical labor; for the clerks, he arranged beach volleyball, table tennis, badminton, and beach track and field.

Anyway, the company was right behind the beach.

After having dinner with Li Xinhua and others, he went back to the office to change into a set of sportswear and came to the open space behind the headquarters building, which had been converted into a sports field.

He set up some sunshades and also purchased some sports equipment like treadmills, horizontal bars, parallel bars, dumbbells, barbells, badminton rackets, and ping pong tables.

After Jiang Miao could see the condition of his body, he consciously strengthened his exercise and adjusted his diet.

Through more than half a year of adjustments, his body mass index, fatty liver, and high blood lipids had all improved and become very normal.

After all, no matter how much money he made, if his body broke down, it would be meaningless.

"Boss, are you going for a run?" Ye Meijing was adjusting the speed next to the treadmill.

Li Wenna was already running.

"Yeah, you go ahead and run, I'll adjust the speed." Jiang Miao walked to the fourth treadmill.

The evening breeze blew gently.

Jiang Miao glanced at his condition for the day, found no abnormalities, and began his warm-up exercises.
