Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading

Chapter 76 Looking forward to upgrading to level 4!

By March 1st, Mu Yang asked his employees to count the order status and payment status of the previous month.

In February, I worked for a total of 25 days and completed an order amounting to 4.05 million yuan. There are 13 cooperative companies and have received more than 2 million yuan in payment.

In March, the order value of 3.5 million yuan has been won.

The company already has 21 plasma spray welding equipment and a total of 33 employees.

According to Mu Yang’s estimate, Xinghai Company will use 500 tons of welding consumable cobalt-based alloy powder each year, and it feels that it is not cost-effective to purchase welding consumables from manufacturers. It is 240 yuan/KG before tax and 271 yuan/KG after tax. That is 271,000 yuan/ton.

Do you want to make STL6 welding consumables yourself?

In the past, the order quantity was small, and the manufacturing cost of welding consumables was not carefully calculated.

Mu Yang has some knowledge about the manufacturing method of STL6 welding consumables. He had seen it in a welding consumable factory in his previous life, but he did not carefully calculate the manufacturing cost of other welding consumables. Recently, he checked the information and calculated it.

The most commonly used cobalt-based alloy powder is mechanical ball milling by physical method.

The manufacturing method is not difficult, the equipment is not difficult to buy, and most of the raw materials are not difficult to buy. The difficulty is that some rare metals are not easy to buy.

The cost of STL6 welding consumables is mainly related to the raw materials, among which the cobalt content is the highest, accounting for about 54~55.3% of the weight, and the unit price is also the highest.

The current price of cobalt has dropped to 320,000 yuan/ton. If the proportion is 54.5% by weight, the raw material cost of light cobalt welding material per ton will reach 174,400 yuan.

If the ratio of cobalt content is lower, the raw material cost of welding consumables will be lower.

The second is chromium Cr, with a content of 29%. The current price of chromium is about 58,000 yuan/ton.

The content of other elements accounts for about 16.5%, and the cost is not high.

Mu Yang estimates that the raw material cost of STL6 is about 195,000 yuan/ton, and the processing cost and other costs are very low compared to the expensive raw materials. The estimated production cost is 197,000 yuan/ton, and the pre-tax sales are 240,000 yuan/ton.

The gross profit is 43,000 yuan/ton, huge profits!

The after-tax estimate is about 32,000 yuan/ton. If you make it yourself, you can save 16 million yuan a year.

Excluding several million equipment costs and sites, it is estimated that tens of millions of dollars can be saved every year.

If Xinghai Company can manufacture 500 tons of STL6 welding consumables per year, not less than 400 million yuan, the gross profit will be 260 million yuan, and there is no need to worry about the 10 million yuan of welding consumables manufacturing profits.

After careful calculation, Mu Yang felt that there was really no need to make STL6 welding consumables, as he could not occupy the profits of the entire industrial chain.

This calculation is not meaningless, and the cost price of STL6 is roughly estimated.

Based on the current cobalt price, the purchase price is still a bit high, and it is estimated that it can be cut to 220,000-225,000 yuan/ton. According to the future plan, the annual consumption of 500 tons of welding consumables can save several million yuan a year.

At present, the monthly consumption is very low. After a month or two, when the purchase volume is large, I will go to the welding consumables manufacturer to negotiate with the boss.

Moreover, Mu Yang calculates the manufacturing cost of welding consumables based on the market price of raw materials. The welding consumable factory purchases a large amount, and the price must be slightly lower than the market price. The estimated cost of welding consumables is only 190,000 yuan/ton.

Although the gross profit rate is very low, the gross profit rate is high, tens of thousands of yuan per ton.

Now the price of 304 stainless steel plate is only about 14,000 per ton, and the gross profit per ton of the steel factory is only 2,000 to 3,000. Mu Yang did not carefully calculate the cost of 304, but I believe that the difference in gross profit will not be too large.

In terms of gross profit, the profit earned by a welding consumable factory from selling 500 tons of STL6 welding consumables is equivalent to selling 10,000 tons of stainless steel.

Mu Yang calculated the money on hand.

The house loan has been settled, and the loan is 2.7 million yuan.

He also took other loans and got a loan of 1 million yuan.

Including the stock value, he currently has about 10 million yuan of funds available, of which 3.2 million yuan is still a loan.

At present, there are 34 people, including five insurances and food expenses, etc., and the monthly labor cost is about 180,000 yuan.

The tea shop is in the process of setting up a Naixue Catering Management Company in H City, Jiangnan Province, which can transfer up to six million yuan. Mu Yang holds 95% of the shares, and Song Xuelu holds 5% of the shares. When Mu Yang is busy, Song Xuelu will assist in the management.

Xinghai Machinery Co., Ltd. is currently developing smoothly and is making a lot of money every day. It will be profitable by the end of March.

Although new plasma surfacing equipment is being manufactured continuously, and nickel-based alloy surfacing equipment is ready to be invested, the manufacturing cost of each equipment is less than 100,000 yuan, which has little impact on the company's operation.

The development speed of Xinghai Machinery Company is somewhat beyond Mu Yang's imagination.

In fact, not only him, Song Xuelu was also surprised.

At the beginning, Song Xuelu was not too optimistic about Muyang's Xinghai Machinery Company.

But with a deeper understanding, Mu Yang made the first plasma surfacing equipment for cobalt-based alloys in China, and helped him sort out the data, and found that it was not easy for him.

Years ago, Mu Yang received an order of 100,000 yuan. She began to believe that Xinghai Company had improved. She felt that if she could get hundreds of thousands of orders a month and several million orders a year, she would be profitable. Don't worry about him losing money.

But what she didn't expect was that Xinghai Company's completed orders in February had already reached 4 million yuan, and its development was booming, and its profit margin was extremely high.

There are also more and more employees in the company, and it has reached 34 people at present.

Therefore, in her eyes, Mu Yang is a very shrewd and capable entrepreneur who turned decay into magic.

The business that others can't see, the seemingly ordinary foundry, but he can stand out and play well.

But for Mu Yang, he is more concerned about the upgrade of the reading system.

I am very much looking forward to the new functions after the upgrade. As always, only money rewards will be added. When the reading system is at level 3, reading 10 words is equal to 1 yuan. After upgrading to level 4, the rewards will increase by ten times?

Or nothing changes?

This damn system doesn't give any hints, so I can only figure it out by myself.

Sometimes, Mu Yang feels that the system that beeps all day long is quite cute.

Of course, Mu Yang was just complaining.

It is a great fortune to have a golden finger, so that he can go back to 2008 and make up for his regrets, and he should be grateful for it.

To upgrade to level 4, there is still a shortfall of 300,000 experience, which is about ten days.

The closer the upgrade was, the more Mu Yang looked forward to it.

For school matters, Mu Yang still went to class and went to the library as usual.

In my spare time, I play basketball with my roommates to exercise and relax.

He likes to play football and also plays football, but his skills are not very good, so he has an advantage due to his physical fitness.

This reading system also doesn't have the skills in this area, otherwise, he would like to improve his physical fitness.

Sure enough, the body still has to exercise on its own.

When Song Xuelu came over and ran into him playing, she sat quietly near the court and watched him play. The group of hormone-emitting boys saw a little beauty watching the game nearby, and they behaved really well.

In terms of learning, since the last class meeting, the comprehensive ranking results of the Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering have come out, and Mu Yang ranked first in the freshman mechanical engineering and automation major with an advantage of 1 point over the second place.

I received a scholarship of 1,500 yuan. Although the money was not much, I felt a sense of accomplishment. I invited five people in the dormitory to dinner.
