Chapter 720 6000 Million in a Single Day! Minimum Tax of 15%? The Gold Rush in Abyssinia!

"Brother Sen, I'll treat you to some milk!"

Pinduoduo's "Millions of Boxes of Milk for One Cent" campaign has been very popular with users since its launch.

Although the event requires you to be quick and at the right time, it's actually not that difficult.

Because each Prime member only has one chance to participate in the promotion, the later you participate, the higher your chances of success.

Although many users find the idea of ​​"milk from Africa" ​​somewhat dubious, most still choose to buy a case of Sebena milk to try it out of trust in Chen Yansen, even if they don't manage to snag any discounted items.

After all, during the operation of Kuai Pao Canteen, Mixue Ice Cream and Lucky Coffee under Senlian Capital, there have never been any food safety issues, and people have great trust in Chen Yansen's character.

从10月19日到10月21日，短短三天时间里，塞贝纳不仅免费送出30万箱牛奶，全国营收更突破了1.2亿。

Sales mainly came from four major channels: Pinduoduo, Kuaipao Flash Sale, JD.com, and Orange Supermarket, with a single-day transaction volume of up to 4000 million yuan.

It's important to know that at this time, Sebena's advertising campaign had not yet been fully rolled out; it was only being promoted online, and offline print ads and television commercials had not yet been launched.

It is easy to see that Senlian Capital has an extremely strong ability to "create products". Users love Senlian Capital and accept almost all of its products.

What puzzles some people is that they have lactose intolerance and used to drink other pure milk, which would turn into "intestinal cleansing milk".

However, drinking Sebena milk caused no reaction in my stomach; it was no different from drinking any other beverage.

what is this?
Many people raised questions in the comments.

At this point, someone replied meaningfully: "Just check the domestic standards for total bacterial count in pure milk and you'll understand. I dare not say more, for fear of getting beaten up."

This comment immediately caused an uproar among netizens.

Users who were originally discussing "drinking Sebena without getting an upset stomach" all turned their attention to the unfamiliar term "total bacterial count".

Some people took out their phones and opened search engines, some tagged their friends who do food testing, and some even asked university professors.

Even more extreme, some people directly check the relevant implementation standards.

The first person to share the search results was a mother. She posted a screenshot of the clause "the total number of bacterial colonies in raw milk is less than or equal to 200 million per milliliter" and highlighted the key point with a red circle: "When I bought imported milk for my child before, I remember that some brands were labeled as not exceeding 10 per milliliter."

As soon as these words were spoken, someone immediately added, "No wonder I always get diarrhea when I drink other milk! It turns out it's not that I'm lactose intolerant, but that there are too many bacteria in those milks?"

Immediately, someone chimed in, saying that they used to experience bloating and diarrhea even after heating pure milk, and always thought it was because their stomach was too sensitive. It wasn't until they tried Sebena that they finally discovered the truth.

"The above is pure nonsense. The domestic requirement for pasteurized milk is no more than 10 per milliliter, which is the same level as Europe and the United States! The requirement for UHT milk, that is, ultra-high temperature sterilized milk, is commercial sterility. The problem lies in the process and transportation!"

Immediately afterwards, someone countered.

The implication is that there is definitely no problem with production; the problem lies either in a break in the supply chain during transportation, warehousing, or sales, allowing residual or later-stage contamination bacteria to multiply rapidly, resulting in excessive bacterial counts.

Either the pipes, storage tanks, filling machines and other equipment were not thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, and the residual milk residue became a breeding ground for bacteria, contaminating the milk that flowed through them later.

In addition, poor sealing during the filling process, such as if the packaging materials themselves carry bacteria, can also lead to contamination of the milk after packaging.

But this reply disappeared very quickly.

The next day, Sebena's sales surged, with daily sales exceeding 6000 million.

Upon hearing the news, the heads of two dairy companies located far away in the northern border region immediately turned pale.

They never imagined that they would encounter a competitor who originally made chips and mobile phones.

the other side.

Chen Yansen only stayed in Luzhou for a week before flying to Hong Kong Island to attend the listing ceremony of Orange Technology.

Orange Technology's listing date is set for October 28, with an issue price of HK$148.8. Just one lot requires HK$10, which is considered a high price even in the massive Hong Kong stock market.

……

Inside a beef soup restaurant in the state.

Zhu Ruizhe stared at his childhood friend across from him, and couldn't help but sneer. He clenched his fists, wishing he could punch the other guy in the face: "You dare to come back?"

The two have known each other since the first grade of elementary school, and were classmates throughout junior high and high school.

After the college entrance examination, Zhu Ruizhe was admitted to Luzhou University, while the other person failed the exam and then served as a conscript for two years, followed by a three-year term as a non-commissioned officer.

After he returned from military service, the other party opened a "Veteran Hot Pot Restaurant".

Unsurprisingly, within just one year, he lost all of his more than 200,000 yuan in demobilization pay.

A year ago, the other party borrowed 140,000 yuan from him and then disappeared completely.

I can't get through on the phone, and no one replies to my text messages.

You see, this money was originally intended for a down payment on a house, but he didn't end up buying the house, and his girlfriend broke up with him. Her reason was straightforward: "You lent all your savings to your friend, did you even think about our future?"

"Hehe, I'm back now! Don't worry, let's eat first, and then I'll go to the bank with you to transfer all the money to you."

Knowing he was in the wrong, Liu Hanbin could only offer an awkward smile and explanation.

Seeing that Liu Hanbin was willing to repay the money, Zhu Ruizhe's expression softened slightly. He picked up a glass of beer from the table and sighed deeply: "Alright, tell me, where have you been all year?"

"I went to Abyssinia with two comrades-in-arms. We first opened a barbecue restaurant, and recently we opened a packaging factory. You've heard of Sebena milk, right? They use our factory's packaging."

Liu Hanbin patted his chest and said, his tone filled with confidence.

Don't let his easy tone fool you; he suffered a lot when he first went to Abyssinia.

Along a 100-kilometer stretch of road, you'll encounter four or five checkpoints, and each inspector has to collect a toll.

With all taxes and fees combined, it exceeds 50%, making it an unsuitable place to do business.

Fortunately, they started by opening a Chinese restaurant, where beef and mutton were cheap, and "Veteran's Barbecue" was very popular.

Unexpectedly, the first half of the year saw a three-way conflict between the Omoro, Tireg, and Hamra people, causing more than half of the local Chinese businessmen to flee.

With bullets flying and artillery fire raging every day, everyone wanted to go home and wait until the fighting subsided. As a result, the business of "Veteran's Barbecue" plummeted.

Just when Liu Hanbin and others were at their wits' end, the three parties finally reached a settlement.

Even more coincidentally, Senlian Capital built a large industrial park in the suburbs of Dumka. In order to attract investment, it also opened a milk factory in Abyssinia’s developed livestock industry and outsourced the orders for packaging, pallets and other supporting products to local Chinese businessmen.

Liu Hanbin was lucky and was assigned a portion of the cardboard box business.

Now that Sebena milk is selling like hotcakes in China, he has made a lot of money, which is why he was able to take time off to return to China specifically to repay Zhu Ruizhe's debt.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ruizhe frowned and said, "What do you mean by not answering the phone?"

"Ugh, don't even mention it! My phone was stolen as soon as I landed. I was thinking of leaving you a message on QQ, but honestly, I haven't made any money yet, so I don't have the courage to contact you."

Liu Hanbin spoke candidly about it.

"Forget it, let's not dwell on the past. Cheers!"

Zhu Ruizhe shook his head and said nothing more.

These days, anyone who's willing to pay back money is considered a reliable friend.

It wasn't until two or three years into his job that he truly understood the principle of "not lending money easily." Most of the time, not only would he not get his money back, but he might also end up making an enemy out of nowhere.

"By the way, what about your girlfriend? When are you planning to get married?" Liu Hanbin asked casually.

"It was blown up a long time ago."

Zhu Ruizhe put down his wine glass and looked up at Liu Hanbin.

"I remember you two always had a good relationship, so why did you suddenly break up?"

Liu Hanbin looked surprised.

"It's because I lent you the down payment for the house, and then I couldn't find you. She said I was crazy and dumped me."

As Zhu Ruizhe spoke, he chuckled self-deprecatingly, a hint of helplessness hidden in his eyes.

"Brother, I really am sorry about this! But to be honest, it's good that this girl left. Consider it a good thing she saw through him beforehand. If you had married her, who knows how many troubles you would have had in the future."

Liu Hanbin forced himself to comfort him, his tone tinged with apology.

"You make it sound so easy, kid!"

Zhu Ruizhe rolled his eyes at the other person and said irritably.

“Ah Zhe, I’ll make it all up to you later! You can quit your job and come with me to East Africa. I’ll pay you 20,000 yuan a month and you can help me manage the factory.”

Liu Hanbin said earnestly.

"You didn't go to northern Myanmar to do some kind of mess, did you?"

Zhu Ruizhe raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of doubt, and looked at Liu Hanbin with a strange gaze.

"Would I cheat you?" Liu Hanbin retorted.

"Didn't you scam me?" Zhu Ruizhe said quietly.

Liu Hanbin chuckled twice, losing his appetite for drinking. He immediately pulled Zhu Ruizhe to the bank next door and handed over the entire 16 yuan, including principal and interest, to Zhu Ruizhe.

"You've really made it big, kid?" Zhu Ruizhe said sourly, then pulled out two stacks of money and stuffed them back into Liu Hanbin's hand.

His meaning was very clear: he only wanted to collect the principal, and not a single penny of interest.

Liu Hanbin held two stacks of crisp banknotes, then pushed the money back: "Are you looking down on me? If it weren't for your 140,000, I wouldn't have been able to afford charcoal for a barbecue restaurant in Abyssinia. Now that I've made money, what's a little interest?"

After much back and forth, Zhu Ruizhe finally accepted all the money.

"How about it, want to work with me? I'll help you open a barbecue restaurant, and I guarantee you'll earn 500,000 a year!"

Liu Hanbin spoke with certainty and took full responsibility.

at the same time.

In Hangzhou, Fujian, Northeast China, Shandong and other places, many daring and enterprising Chinese businessmen have returned to their hometowns to raise funds and recruit people, planning to make a big splash in Abyssinia.

It should be noted that in the five states controlled by the Omoro tribe, the tax rate fluctuated between 15% and 25%, which was only one-half or even one-third of the 50% tax rate in the region where the Central Command was located.

With Senlian Capital backing it up and Fengjun Security Company responsible for ensuring the safety of Chinese businessmen, it naturally attracted a large number of people who wanted to "strike it rich".

Quietly, a wave of enthusiasm for making money in East Africa has swept across East China, Northeast China, and Southeast China.

……

……

Dumka, Senlian Industrial Park.

Wang Jingtao worked here for two months, and as the rainy season ended, the construction progress in the park continued to accelerate.

He stood in the construction area, his eyes unconsciously glancing towards the Seberna dairy plant not far away.

During this period, he worked exceptionally hard, always keeping a tight rein on himself, fearing that he might not meet Chen Yansen's requirements.

Every night before falling asleep, Cheng Jiale's arrogant appearance would involuntarily float into his mind.

"Engineer Wang, the inspection report for this batch of steel bars is out. The pass rate is 99.8%. Would you like to take a look?"

Just then, a technician from the construction team jogged over, carrying a stack of documents, interrupting his thoughts.

Wang Jingtao snapped out of his daze, took the document, flipped through a couple of pages, and without saying a word, followed the other party to the materials warehouse.

He didn't want any mistakes to happen!
