"Oh, my brother, there is no need for such a big battle. I think this time is a bit semi-private. Do you think this is my plan? After the president comes to our factory, please go to the countryside to hire a leader. Come, you two will accompany me for a while, inspect the factory, and I will report on the work. Then we will have a meal in our factory in the evening."
"It's too simple for us to eat here, so we should go to the countryside. I guess the township leaders will also invite the president back to the village."
"This is what I was about to tell you. I want to expand our factory canteen and make it a standard canteen that can accommodate 30 people, and then create a VIP room."
"Well, yes, but do you have enough time?"
"It's in time. My brother is still in Wenzhou waiting for the remittance and contract delivery. It will take at least ten days for him to come back. Ten days are enough for us to renovate."
"That's good, that's good."
"The bathrooms also need to be renovated. You see, when we had our year-end dinner, those women didn't even have a place to go to the bathroom. And in the future, not only will our male leaders come to inspect, but women will too. In addition, our workers will There will be more and more, and now you have to queue up to take a bath or use the toilet. In the future, the newly opened office furniture production line will assemble office furniture, which is all screws and fasteners. Women can do it, so we have to build a women's toilet."
"Oh, after the canteen and toilets are expanded, and the office furniture production line needs to be built, there won't be enough space in the factory, right?"
"Yes, I invited you here just to see if you can get some land."
"Land grant? It can't be done now, it can't be done anymore." Village Chief Shitou shook his head like a rattle as he spoke.
"why?"
"Alas! You don't know, the last meeting in the township was about the reconstruction and expansion of Hanwangchuan Airport, and an airport expressway was going to be built to pass through us. The township informed the city that all projects in the villages requiring the expressway to pass by were not approved. The leather factories in Wangshan’s village were also shut down.”
"Oh, Wang Shan and their village have a leather factory?"
"Yes, my father-in-law raised the issue at the meeting, saying that the village has no source of income, and the villagers are making trouble if they can't make money. Wang Shan's father-in-law also raised the issue, but did not approve it. Is it your investment?"
"Well, yes. Alas! Brother Shitou, this is troublesome. The place needs to develop. If it doesn't work, I'll ask Uncle Han in Yantan." Yang Liufang unconsciously started to play hard to get. Village Chief Shitou was startled after hearing this and put down the chopsticks he was picking up.
"Xiao Yang, are you kidding me? The factory can't be moved away! The people in the village have just been able to make some money, and their lives are just getting better."
"But Brother Shitou, our factory can't just stay here and not develop."
"That's it, brother, don't worry. Aren't we going to invite the township leaders to accompany the president of the supply and marketing cooperative? I'll give it a try then. If it doesn't work, we'll find a way."
"Okay, Brother Shitou, I'm waiting for your good news. This is three hundred yuan. It will definitely cost some money to go to the countryside to invite the township leaders."
"Oh, that's our job, how can we let you spend money? Put it away."
"Brother Shitou, put it away. Aren't you working for our factory? I feel sorry for wasting your time. I can't let you spend any more money."
"Brother Shitou, put it away. Spend as much as you want. When you run out of it, just return it to Xiao Yang."
"Is this okay, Brother Shitou?"
"Okay, then I'll keep it, and I'll return the rest to you later."
"Come on, eat quickly, the food is getting cold."
After dinner, Yang Liufang returned to the bedroom and called Jiesheng's factory in Yiwu. It was Jiesheng's father who answered the phone. It turned out that Jiesheng hadn't come back yet, so Yang Liufang reported his home address.
"Uncle, I am a customer from Xizhou. Is my brother Ah Fu in our factory?"
"Yes, yes."
"Uncle, I have already remitted the payment, and the contract has been stamped and sent. I would like to have a phone call with my brother. What do you think would be more convenient?"
"Oh, I'll ask the worker to call him. You can call back in five minutes."
"Thank you, uncle."
Five minutes later, Yang Liufang called again, and it was indeed Li Tongfu who picked up the call. Yang Liufang told Li Tongfu that the payment for the goods had been remitted and the contract had been sent by registered mail. There were three copies in total, and he asked him to check them carefully. Then he talked about the city's plan to build the airport expressway, which should be related to Shige Village, because the land has not been approved. Yang Liufang told the story about the supply and marketing cooperative's venue again. The president was very helpful and wanted to invite his brother to the factory for dinner when he came back to express his gratitude. And asked him to bring some Yiwu specialties when he comes back, preferably those that can be served on the table.
"Haha, Yiwu is most famous for its ham, so I will bring two hams."
"Ham? Isn't it from Jinhua?"
"Fool, Yiwu is not under the jurisdiction of Jinhua!"
"Oh. I forgot. Oh, Yiwu is pretty good too. I think everyone, not just me, only knows Yiwu but not Jinhua." Yang Liufang shyly made excuses for himself on the other end of the phone. At this time, he always felt that his knowledge was not enough.
"Brother, I want to expand the canteen and bathroom in the factory. I've been to Jiesheng's factory and realized that we can't afford it."
"Yeah, that's right. I haven't seen their scene before. Being a frog in the well, I feel that we are good. In the past few days here, I have also felt that the windows of the canteen are bright and clean, and the workers' living areas are also clean. There are also couples' rooms. , the hotel that receives customers is really considerate. Just after the expansion is completed, will your work area not be enough? "
"Well, this is what I just told you. I originally wanted to use this expansion to acquire more land, but the head of Shitou Village said that the township meeting has stopped the approval of various projects. Even the leather factory, Wang Shan My father and father-in-law’s joint nominations were blocked.”
"Then what should we do? It seems that the airport expressway thing is true."
"It's definitely true, but I don't know if we have an exit here. When the president came, I asked the village chief Shitou to go to the countryside to invite the leaders to accompany him, and also told him in a subtle way that if he couldn't get the approval, we could only Relocation, move the factory to Uncle Han's side in Yantan. But brother, you also know this is impossible, Uncle Han's place is close to the city, and the site is many times more expensive than here."
"Guitou. Brother, if it doesn't work, I have another way. Let's bring all this batch of goods to Shige Village, and then fill up our factory. You can arrange to make another batch of furniture, and directly block the door and let the leaders During the inspection, we found that with the development of the enterprise, our space is indeed insufficient. Let us speak with facts."
"Brother, you are more powerful. Let's do it like this. Just like furniture, we will send it to the supply and marketing cooperative in batches."
"We have to get the land no matter what. The funds may be gone, but tomorrow is the 26th. We should supply goods to Hongtu Village, and we can get the check that day. We will use part of the payment, and the other part to buy building materials, and speed up the time for renovation. I estimate that I can go back in about ten days."
"Okay. Tomorrow I will go to the market to find Brother Chen and tell him that we will press down the payment for this batch of goods first to expand the factory. Forget about Lao Zhou." When Boss Zhou was mentioned, both of them were silent. They were so silent last year. At the critical moment, he withdrew the capital due to illness of his family, which made Yang Liufang and the others even worse. In the end, the master was forced to sell his ancestral home to ease the pain. It's just that he helped Li Tongfu in the first place, otherwise there were many people in the market who could supply this kind of product, and he would have been replaced long ago.
Yang Liufang and his elder brother talked for a while about the supply and marketing cooperative giving Yanhua another office before hanging up the phone. I wanted to pick up a book to read, but found that I had forgotten the book after I brought it home during the Spring Festival. I turned on the radio and found a music and literature radio program to listen to. On the radio, it was Li Yemo who was broadcasting "Muslims" by writer Hoda. "Funeral". Listening to the radio, he slowly fell asleep.
The next morning he woke up late because he forgot to set the alarm clock. It was Shi Yong knocking on the door who woke him up. It seemed that "hard work comes from hard work, but playfulness comes from waste." It was just a Spring Festival holiday that only lasted more than ten days, and all the habits he had developed over the past few years had disappeared.
Yang Liufang ignored washing and arranged the project first. He asked Shi Fang to make another set of antique furniture. At the same time, Shi Yong was asked to make a set of sofas, and he also told Shi Yong about the Simmons project. It was only then that he thought about how great it would be if he had a photo, but one cannot act with hindsight, and now he could only wait until he finished washing and proofing with Shi Yong. But this morning Shi Yong was asked to make a door first, including the door cover. According to Yang Liufang's plan, Yanhua's office would be separated out overnight. The business of the supply and marketing cooperative cannot be delayed the next day.
"Everyone has a rest this afternoon." When Yang Liufang announced, everyone looked at each other, thinking that Yang Liufang had fainted.
"Master, why are you taking a break when you have something to do?"
"Go to the supply and marketing cooperative to build partitions at night."
We also arranged for the master chef to have extra meals in the evening. Today, the factory will require four meals. The master chef gave him the list of standard canteens that he had made back. Yang Liufang didn't understand the equipment when he saw it. He just saw that the budget was not much. When funds were tight, he felt relieved. I put away the order and wanted to hand it over to Yanhua for approval when I went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the evening and process it as soon as possible.
After explaining this, when he saw the village chief Shitou coming to deliver water, he asked him to find a mason to build the bathroom wall in the afternoon. After hearing this, the head of Shitou Village responded. After unloading the water, he went to the well five kilometers away to fetch water. Seeing the back of the head of Shitou village walking alone, Yang Liufang couldn't bear it. He should build a well for the village, but he didn't know if the shadow would affect his income. Then he thought again, even if it didn't affect him, he couldn't propose it now. He wanted to use this as a donation from the factory to the village to add weight to the land he wanted.
After breakfast, Yang Liufang called the supply and marketing cooperative and asked who would deliver goods to Hongtu Village today. When he learned that it was Qin Jiajun, he asked the delivery truck to pass through the factory and he had to follow it. The factory would use the truck all day today. Ask Yanhua to arrange the sales work of the supply and marketing cooperative, and at the same time, pick out two expensive and exquisite gifts from suppliers during the Spring Festival and take them with you in the car.
Qin Jiajun drove the truck to the factory at nine o'clock in the morning, picked up Yang Liufang and drove to Hongtu Village. Since the opening of the factory, Yang Liufang has almost never been to Hongtu Village. This time it was because Li Tongfu was not here, and it would have been too rude not to show up just after the New Year, so he asked Yanhua to prepare two gifts, one for the village. Chief, give a portion to Accountant Li.
