Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 514 Disposable Chopsticks

There were a lot of things going on in Shencheng, and Wu Yucheng and Sheng Yunfei didn't have the chance to stay in the capital for a long time. On May 6th, the two took a flight back to Shencheng.

Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen discussed with their son that they wanted to go back to their hometown to visit.

February of this year was supposed to be the third anniversary of the Sheng family's illness, but Zhang Shuzhen's health was not very good after the new year. She was ill for a while and was unable to go back.

We were already in the capital, not far from his hometown. Sheng Liancheng wanted to go back and have a look.

So Sheng Xiping accompanied his parents and returned to his hometown again.

My hometown is much better now than it was a few years ago.

With Sheng Xiping's support, Shilou Township teamed up with Zhongxing Township next door to establish a company specializing in the production and sales of pet products. The brothers Sheng Xiwen and Sheng Xiwu served as managers.

At present, the company's products include cat climbing frames, cat scratching posts, pet beds, cat amusing sticks, pet clothes, pet toys, etc., which are sold overseas and are deeply loved by foreign users.

The transportation team established by Sheng Xiyong, Sheng Xizheng, Sheng Xihong and others initially only had six vehicles, but now it has grown to more than ten vehicles and is making a lot of money.

"Dad." Sheng Xinhua and Sheng Xinyu were playing with the dogs in the yard. When they saw Sheng Xiping coming back, they immediately pounced on them.

As the old saying goes, from the beginning of summer to Xiaoman, it’s never too late to plant anything. The solar term in Qianchuan Forest Farm is a few days later than elsewhere. Farming is still okay at this time, and autumn can come.

Sheng Liancheng has worked hard all his life and is used to being diligent. There is nothing to do when he retires. How can he have any leisure time?

The little girl, who is only six years old, looks fair and clean, has big eyes, a rosy face, and chubby little hands. She looks extremely cute no matter how you look at her.

"That's right, that's right, your dad and I don't have anything else to do, so we're just tending some land and planting a little bit of everything for you to come back and eat.

When Sheng Xiping drove home, he said something to Aunt Li. The children came home from school and heard that their father was back, so they were all waiting.

Sheng Xiping sent his parents home, visited his master and his wife at the Great Alkali Field, and then drove back to Songjianghe. By the time he got home, it was almost six o'clock.

"Dad, I miss you so much. Why did you come back? Dad, give me a hug."

"Let's go into the house." Sheng Xiping led his two sons into the house.

"Yueyue, Qiqi, what are you doing? Didn't you hear dad come back?" Sheng Xiping deliberately spoke loudly towards the east room.

Mom and I are not very old. How can we still eat, sleep and eat every day without doing anything else?
We don't do much, just the little land and vegetable garden at home.

"Xiping, please drive us home directly. We won't stay in Songjianghe." Sheng Liancheng said after leaving the train station.

Sheng Xiping's heart suddenly melted, and he quickly bent down, put his arms around his daughter's waist, and hugged them both.

There is no need for adults to care or anyone to watch. The two children do this every day and finish their homework automatically and spontaneously.

I plant some sticky corn and save it for eating in the autumn. The children like it.

Sheng Xiping couldn't convince his parents, so they had no choice but to agree, so the three of them took a donkey cart to Sheng Xiping's house, and then Sheng Xiping drove his parents back to the forest farm.

On the kang in the east room, two little girls were playing house. When they heard their father's movements, they immediately put on their shoes and ran to the outer room.

Let's get some millet, adzuki beans, etc., and save some sticky fire spoons for winter, and sticky mice for summer, so we can eat them fresh, wouldn't it be nice? "

"Have you eaten? Have you finished your homework?" Sheng Xiping held his two sons tightly in his arms, patted the children on the back, and asked.

No matter how much homework there is, the two children always do their homework as soon as they come in and play after they finish.

"Dad, you're back. I thought you were going to live in the forest farm today."

Elementary school ends at four o'clock in the afternoon. Sheng Xinhua is in fourth grade and has more homework, while Sheng Xinyu is only in second grade and has less homework.

"Dad, do you think our family is still short of the grain you grew? Just take a rest and don't get tired."

In addition, Sheng Xiping still had a lot of things to be busy with, so the three of them stayed in their hometown for only a few days before setting off back to the Northeast.

"I've finished my homework a long time ago. I haven't eaten yet. I'll wait for you to come back to eat."

These two babies have grown strong from eating well, and the portions are quite heavy. Sheng Xiping had some difficulty in holding them both at once.

"Dad." The two girls, one on the left and one on the right, hugged Sheng Xiping's arms.

Sheng Liancheng took the opportunity to pay homage to his parents' graves, and then accompanied Zhang Shuzhen to stay with the Zhang family for two days, and also paid homage to the two elders of the Zhang family.

May is a critical period for afforestation and forest protection and fire prevention. There are few people in the forest farm during the day.

"You have retired, just take a good rest with my mother. You suffered hardships when you were young, and you can take good care of yourself when you are old. Why bother to come here to suffer such hardships?
Furthermore, you said that I am also a company boss after all, making so much money a year, but in the end I let my father farm.

The Sheng Lianyi brothers, no matter how far away they were, all came back to reunite.

Although the people in my hometown are very warm, and the brothers and sisters are very affectionate when they meet, but my parents are gone, and I always feel that there is a difference.

It was May and the temperature was rising. The two children were wearing pink sweaters and pigtails with pink silk tied to them. Like two butterflies, they flew to their father's side.

"Oh, if you two get older, I won't be able to hold you."

"Our five or six acres of land haven't been planted yet. Before we get to Xiaoman, I have to go back to farm as soon as possible. I won't have to wait for a few more days."

Sheng Liancheng's family of three returned and were welcomed by the whole village, young and old.

By the time the three of them returned to Songjianghe, it was already May 18th.

No matter what you buy from outside, it can’t match the fragrance we grow at home. "Zhang Shuzhen also echoed.

If this spreads out, people will not laugh at me to death, right? "Sheng Xiping shook his head and smiled bitterly. He really couldn't understand what the old man was thinking.

When Sheng Xiping heard this, he really didn't know what to say.

"Can that be the same? What you earn is yours.

"Hey, Xiping is back? Yueyue, Qiqi, you two come down quickly, don't tire your dad."

Just at this moment, Aunt Li came out of the kitchen carrying dishes. When she saw the situation, she hurriedly said.

As soon as the two girls heard this, they hurried down and then took Sheng Xiping's hand and entered the house.

"Dad, sit down." Sheng Xinyue patted the edge of the kang and asked Sheng Xiping to sit down.

At the other end, Sheng Xinhua moved the table in, and Sheng Xinyu went to the kitchen to serve the dishes. After a while, the food was put away.

"Let's eat first, Qing Lan has classes tonight and won't be back until after nine o'clock.

I left the rice for Qing Lan to heat up when she comes back. "Aunt Li looked at the clock on the wall and said.

Normally at this time, the children would have already finished eating and watching TV. Today, they came to this point just to wait for Sheng Xiping.

The children were all hungry, and they were anxious to watch cartoons, so they all ate quickly, devoured their meals, and then hurried to turn on the TV.

Sheng Xiping was not in a hurry. He finished his meal slowly and helped to clean it up. Then he sat on the sofa, hugging his daughter on one side and watching cartoons with the child on the other.

Until seven o'clock, the news started to play on the TV. The children were not interested in this and went to play separately. Over there, Aunt Li boiled water and asked Sheng Xinyue and Sheng Xinqi to wash their feet and tidy up before going to bed.

The two girls relied on their father and insisted that they would not sleep with Grandma Li today. They would sleep in the same room as their father.

"Aunt Li, it's okay, let them sleep in the east room."

Sheng Xiping took a look, went up to the kang, spread out the bedding, coaxed the two girls to take off their clothes and get into bed, and brought them dolls.

The two girls each held a baby, lying on the kang, and soon fell asleep.

Sheng Xinhua and Sheng Xinyu were both grown up, so they didn't have to stay with their father. They had their own room, and they went to sleep in the west room suite.

After the children all went to bed, Sheng Xiping called the driver and told him that there was no need to pick up Zhou Qinglan.

At nine o'clock, Sheng Xiping drove to Songlin High School to pick up Zhou Qinglan from get off work.

Zhou Qinglan was naturally surprised and happy when she saw Sheng Xiping, and the couple returned home talking and laughing.

After dinner, I took the two children, Sheng Xinyue and Sheng Xinqi, to the west room to sleep with Aunt Li. The couple lay on the bed and whispered until midnight, and then fell asleep.

Sheng Xiping has entrusted the trade on the Heihe side to Sun Jinggang, Zhang Zhiqiang and others. They are familiar with Andrei and Sergey. Regular trade does not require Sheng Xiping's intervention.

Therefore, this time Sheng Xiping returned to Songjianghe and could stay longer.

The next morning after returning home, Sheng Xiping went to the processing factory.

"Mr. Sheng, our new products, plastic veneer panels and melamine resin impregnated paper veneer panels, have passed the technical appraisal of eight units including the Provincial Scientific Research Institute and the Forestry Department.

It was rated as a provincial outstanding new product and included in the production plan of the Provincial Economic Commission.

Some time ago, businessmen from Eastern Japan, Beautiful Country, and Canada visited our factory and placed orders for many new products. "

As soon as Sheng Xiping arrived at the factory, Zheng Hua quickly reported all the recent events to Sheng Xiping.

"Businessmen from Dongwa have placed orders for a lot of disposable wooden chopsticks, and the factory is now working overtime to catch up.

The current orders have reached the limit of our production capacity. No matter how many orders there are, the wooden chopsticks workshop will not be able to complete them even if it is running continuously.

But the Dongwa merchants are still pressing and want to continue to place additional orders. How do you think this matter will be arranged?

It is estimated that it will take a long time to expand the workshop and recruit workers. At present, the orders are urgent and it is difficult to handle. "Zheng Hua held a thick stack of documents and reported one by one.

Although these small disposable wooden chopsticks are inconspicuous, as long as you find the right market, you can still make a lot of money.

The wooden chopsticks workshop produced more than 100,000 boxes of disposable wooden chopsticks last year and earned nearly US$2 million in foreign exchange from exports.

It can be said that, looking at the whole county, apart from one of the participating factories, Sheng Xiping's wood processing plant is a major exporter and foreign exchange earner.

"It's simple. You give me, Uncle Zheng, a call and ask what the forest processing plant is doing now. If the forest farm is interested, we can cooperate.

We provide the machines and technology, and they provide the factories and workers. As long as the chopsticks produced pass the inspection, we will purchase them all. "

Sheng Xiping laughed when he heard it. Isn't this thing simple? So many forest farms under the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau have attached processing plants.

The disposable wooden chopsticks are actually not technically difficult. As long as there are machines and raw materials, workers can produce them with a little training in a few days.

"Hey, look at my mind, why didn't I think of it?

Yes, we directly contract them out, they produce them, and we just buy them at a price. Okay, I'll talk to my dad about this later.

When I went back to the forestry farm some time ago, I heard him talking about how the processing factory was not making money, and if it continued like this, the processing factory might become obsolete. "Zheng Hua said happily after hearing this.

"Okay, then you can discuss it with Uncle Zheng and see what he means.

It doesn't matter. If Maekuan Forestry Farm is not willing to cooperate, we can still find another forestry farm or other bureau. ",

In a previous life, many forestry bureaus in the Northeast produced disposable wooden chopsticks and exported them to South Korea and Eastern Japan.

At that time, there were reports that all the trees in Changbai Mountain had been cut down to produce disposable chopsticks.

This thing doesn't have much technical content, and Sheng Xiping just took advantage of it and won over a large number of Eastern and Japanese customers.

Waiting for more people to follow the trend in two years, this thing may not be so profitable.

Therefore, there is no need to expand the workshop, just maintain the current scale.

"After a while, I will go to the south to find a place where bamboo is produced.

Let’s develop some bamboo products, especially disposable chopsticks. It’s more cost-effective to use bamboo. "

Bamboo, despite its hardness, is actually a fast-growing herbaceous plant. It is more cost-effective to make disposable chopsticks than wood.

Zheng Hua finished reporting everything that should be reported, and then put a pile of documents on Sheng Xiping's desk. He hurried back to his office and called his father.

When Zheng Xianyong heard that Huayang Processing Factory wanted to cooperate with them to produce disposable chopsticks, and the price was not low, he became happy at that time.

The forestry processing plant, when Sheng Xiping was there, was able to get orders, so it was very profitable.

Later, Sheng Xiping resigned and went into business. The processing factory had no new orders and was getting worse and worse. Now, it was almost unsustainable.

At this time, Huayang Factory wanted to cooperate. Of course Zheng Xianyong would not refuse and directly agreed.

"Just wait, I'll take people down right now, and let's discuss cooperation."

Seeing that the processing plant was saved, Zheng Xianyong was so happy that he put down the phone and quickly found a car to go to Songjianghe.

On the other side, after Sheng Xiping looked through the documents, he grabbed the phone and called Chen Ruiqing.

"Brother, please do me a favor. Isn't there a product exhibition held by the Ministry of Forestry in Yangcheng next month?

Should our province arrange for various companies to participate in the exhibition? Could you please help me get a spot? "

"Okay, I'll take care of this little thing for you in a moment." Chen Ruiqing agreed without saying a word.

"Hey, thank you, brother. I'll go to the provincial capital later and treat brother to dinner." Sheng Xiping smiled and thanked Chen Ruiqing.

"Thank you for what? Do we, brothers, need to say this?

I'd say you're just too stubborn. I wanted to reserve a spot for you at the Spring Fair a while ago. How great would it be for you to go to the Spring Fair? It can also earn foreign exchange through export. "

Chen Ruiqing was on the other end of the phone, and she couldn't help but complain.

"Brother, I have no plans to go to the Spring Fair for the time being, mainly because the technology in the factory is not yet mature.

In two years, we will perfect the new product. If you reserve a spot for me then, I will definitely go. "Sheng Xiping was happy when he heard it.

Chen Ruiqing complained to him many times about this matter, but Sheng Xiping felt that it was not appropriate to rush to the Spring Festival before the time was ripe.
