Reborn 1980, Mountains Have Spirits, I Have Fields

Chapter 174
That afternoon, baskets of strawberries were shipped to the candy factory one after another.

Under the order of the old factory manager, all the employees in the factory came together to start work.

Factory Manager Yuan held a mobilization meeting in the cafeteria, stood in front of everyone and said, "This time is the task assigned to us by Deputy Mayor Zhang! The task is simple and the reward is generous. As long as it is done well, everyone's lack of salary in half a year will be covered by it." It can be made up. The most important thing is that if our factory can follow others in the fruit jam business, there is a great hope for it to come back to life! Whether it is good or bad, it depends on this one! I am old and will retire next year. You are still young, the factory depends on you!"

Everyone was motivated by the passionate speech of the factory director, and the voices said one after another: "The factory director is at ease. Even if we don't sleep these days, we will drive things out!"

Director Yuan smiled and said, "Okay!"

Everyone rushed to the workshop excitedly.

The good thing about a ready-made factory is that it has everything.

Cleaning room, cooking room, assembly room, cold room, clear division of labor, orderly.

The female worker in the cleaning room shouted: "Ah, such a good strawberry is made into jam, isn't it too wasteful?"

"What can you do? Just work!"

It is inevitable that some people can't bear the sweetness of strawberries, secretly taste a few, don't say anything, like a mirror in their hearts: it's hard not to sell the jam made of such strawberries!
Strawberries are washed and cut into small pieces and sent to the cooking room in barrels. The boiler that has not caught fire for half a year is burning vigorously.

Lingmei pointed out: "Our strawberries are very sweet. Usually, one kilogram of strawberries requires [-] grams of rock sugar. Let's put less, [-] grams is enough. As for gelatin preservatives and other additives, we don't use them at all."

As the workers kept stirring, the strawberries in the deep pot gradually released a mouth-watering sweet fragrance.

Ling Mei also guided the transformation of the fire and the control of time. After 45 minutes, the first batch of strawberry jam was out of the pan.

Zhuo Lin's custom-made glass jar has not yet arrived, and the dark pink strawberry jam is placed in a snow-white enamel bowl, which is as crystal clear as a gemstone in the landscape, with fluorescent flashes.

In the anticipation of everyone, Ling Mei lightly scooped up a spoonful of trembling jam and put it into her mouth, slowly closed her eyes, feeling that she had stepped into a sweet forest, sweet but not greasy, just like the first release in the morning breeze. the flowers, the bees will vie for its freshness and sweetness.

Lingmei put down her spoon.

She bowed deeply to all the workers: "Thank you everyone."

There was thunderous applause.

The workers in the candy factory really need a success to give them the confidence to rebuild the factory.The appearance of strawberry jam is like nectar after a long drought, completely activating the stagnant Yutu Factory.

For the next half month, the boiler was kept on day and night.

The glass jars finally arrived in time, and the workers in the assembly room put their wishes into the jars with smiles on their faces and put labels on them.Sent into the freezer.

At this time, in a dark and old small building in Nanping.

"Mr. Duan. It seems that our plan will not work." The person pretending to be Boss Hu bowed his back in front of Duan Yiyang.

Duan Yiyang's face turned gloomy in an instant: "It won't work? Old Kou, everything has been done so far, and you can still let her escape to heaven?"

Lao Kou swallowed: "It's—it's my fault, I underestimated her too much. This girl is young, so it's one after another, and I can't stop—"

Duan Yiyang yelled: "Get to the point!"

Lao Kou unconsciously took a small step back: "She found a candy factory."

Duan Yiyang didn't react: "Candy factory? Strawberry candy?"

"—it's strawberry jam."

Lao Kou didn't dare to look up at the other party's face after speaking.You don't need to look to know that it must be covered with dark clouds, gloomy and cold.

Duan Yiyang was stunned for a long time before there was a crackling sound from his throat.

"Strawberry jam—" he let out a soft breath.He said coldly, "Strawberry jam can only solve her urgent needs. For the next batch of strawberries, the fruit merchants in Guangzhou still insist on reducing the price, forcing her to make a profit."

Lao Kou swallowed: "Mr. Duan. Now it seems that the blockage cannot be blocked. What if she sets up an import and export company by herself and resells strawberries... It is also completely possible."

"As long as it is in Guangzhou, her fruit company will definitely not be able to open." Duan Yiyang's voice was harsh.

"Mr. Duan." Lao Kou couldn't help reminding him, "She still has the support of Master Liu."

Duan Yiyang said coldly: "He Guhong has been rampant in Guangzhou for so many years. He has made enough money. Which of you doesn't want to replace him?"

Lao Kou was shocked: "This...Mr. Duan, it's not necessary to pry Liu Ye's iron wall for the sake of Xiao Lingmei?"

Duan Yiyang scoffed coldly: "A group of people with evil intentions but no guts!"

Lao Kou smiled: "He Liuye is really not easy to move. You should know his power better than us."

Duan Yiyang said quietly: "He can't move. Where's his son?"

Lao Kou's heart sank.

Is Duan Yiyang determined to make things difficult for Liu Ye?
"He Xiangxian's whole body is full of braids." Duan Yiyang sneered, "If you make a gap from his side, I don't believe that Sixth Master He can still do nothing."

The old button was obedient, and the cold sweat seeping from the back drenched the T-shirt.

"Keep watching the strawberry jam. See where she wants to sell it." Duan Yiyang chased after him, "Don't think about it. Most of them are in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The market in Haicheng is not easy to enter, and people in the capital have high vision. I'll watch, even a bottle of jam won't flow into the city. If you boil her for three months, the jam will go bad. She'll lose everything!"

Old Kou sighed.There are many ways to prevent non-staple food from entering the city.The Bureau of Industry and Commerce can get stuck once, and the Bureau of Health can get stuck again.It's really not difficult to get stuck for three months.

However, they waited and waited, eager to see through, but they did not wait for the strawberry jam transport truck from Nanping to Guangzhou.

Not only Guangzhou, but even Haicheng and the capital remained silent.

Strange, what exactly does Xiao Lingmei want to do?
******
On April 1984, 4, Lingmei received the invitation to the Canton Fair that she had been thinking about.

"Mr. Zhong is really awesome!" Ling Mei was happy holding the invitation.

Tickets to the Canton Fair are not so easy to get.Coincidentally, Mr. Zhong is one of the persons in charge of the food branch of the Canton Fair.Hearing what happened in Lingmei's letter, his temper immediately came up.

How can he tolerate capitalists' vile acts of undermining the country's poverty alleviation policy, wasting farmers' hard work, and causing huge losses of millions of dollars for their own selfish desires?
Fortunately, Lingmei was resourceful and found her, otherwise the loss would be more than just money?It is also the life hope for the majority of farmers to make a fortune.

The Canton Fair has multiple venues.Industrial products, textiles, food, and handicrafts are all available.In recent years, the turnover has been rising steadily.Mr. Zhong deliberately found out that among the food exhibited this year, there are many canned fruits.But Lingmei's strawberry jam is the only one.Moreover, European and American countries consume a huge amount of jam. Mr. Zhong has tasted the samples sent by Ling Mei, and the taste can only be described as endless aftertaste.

Therefore, at the Canton Fair, where every inch of land is expensive, a table was vacated and a refrigerator was prepared, but a booth of three square meters was reserved for Yunlai Village in NP City.
