Back to 80, start from gold digging

Zhao Wenlan also thought that they would be anxious, so she said: "I thought about it, the three of us alone will definitely not be able to finish it, so we might as well outsource it. Many of the little sisters in the factory are idle at home, so let They will help with the embroidery, and then they will be paid according to the piece. Isn't that great?"

"Oh, this is a good idea. We can deliver the goods on time, and they can also make money to support their families. It kills two birds with one stone."

"Okay, it's settled. We'll find someone tomorrow." Zhao Wenlan finally made the decision.

"We will discuss the candidates later. Those with poor skills are not acceptable. Don't ruin our business again."

"Of course, this embroidery is very demanding, so you have to keep an eye on it."

The three of them sat together and had a lively comparison, and finally settled on six people. They were all coworkers with good relationships and excellent skills.

This change in the store's business can be regarded as broadening one's thinking.In addition to retail, this embroidery can also be wholesaled and pre-ordered.
The three people were overjoyed with this order. At this time, they had no idea that this was just the beginning, and more orders would follow soon.

This month is destined to be a busy month. As each day passes, the new year is approaching.Every family has started to get busy again. At this time of year, they always have to buy New Year’s goods. In addition to buying, buying, and doing other things.Clean up and prepare food for the whole first month.Today I'm going to bake my elbows, tomorrow I'm going to make dough and steam buns, and the day after tomorrow I'm going to make deep-fried meatballs. Anyway, it's the twentieth of the twelfth lunar month, and I'm busy every day, so I don't have any free time.

Everything is ready, and the year is here.

After eating paper dumplings on New Year's Eve, the new year has officially begun.

At this time, the flavor of the New Year is still relatively strong, and the pace of life in the small town is not so hasty.It was not until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month that the shops on the town streets opened for business.

Several stores in the Zhao family have also unified their hours. They are closed for 20 days during the holidays and officially open on the [-]th of the first lunar month.

It is worth mentioning that for the order from the embroidery shop, Zhao Wenduo found an outsourcer and several girls worked together. Finally, it was completed on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, several days ahead of schedule.

The customer surnamed Xin was very happy to receive the goods. In addition to the final payment, he also brought several New Year gifts. He said he would come back often in the future and take good care of him.

The store has been open for such a long time, and there are many customers who are picky about things. This is the first time that they are so polite.

Zhao Wenlan had a vague feeling that the boss named Xin would probably be a noble person in her store, and she might be able to get a lot of profits from him in the future.

Of course, this was all a later story. At that time, it was just a feeling that suddenly came to her.

After the first day of the first lunar month is over, on the second day of the second lunar month, people eat pig head meat and get their hair cut according to the custom. This is when the year is truly over.

In early spring of March, everything revives.

This is a sowing season. One grain of millet is planted in spring and ten thousand grains are harvested in autumn.

Based on the spirit of learning from the ancients, in order to develop the economy, Xiangyang Town next door sold large areas of wasteland in batches to support industrial farming.As long as a certain number of acres is subscribed, the town government will provide maximum support and help and try its best to attract capital injection.

When she learned the news, Zhao Wenduo was taking inventory in the store. She had to know how much inventory she had, and she had to do it every month.School has just ended, and this time will be enough. It won’t be too late to go home after finishing things.

Two middle-aged women who came into the store to look at jewelry talked about this incident.

"The leaders of our town don't know what they think. The wasteland in front of the mountain farm in the west has been abandoned there for many years. No one goes there. Why are they thinking of opening up wasteland now?"

"Yes, that place is desolate. Every once in a while, when I pass by it, I get chills all over my body and get goosebumps. I don't know why the wind is so strong."

"You may not know this because you are a later householder. I heard that this place was a vegetable market in the old dynasty. It was a place where prisoners were killed that writers often talked about. People of the older generation all know it and it has been passed down orally. The thing is, when we were children, we were told by our families not to go there, but it’s so evil, they say that people from the past would just go home and lie down for one night and then they would disappear.”

"Oh, there is such a thing. Let me tell you, there is news, but no one is buying it."

"The locals all know that the land at home is enough for farming. Who wants to take risks and go there to open up wasteland? Besides, the land is not given for free, and they also charge money. People in the village don't have enough money, and the workers I don’t like to put in my efforts, so I’m not very popular.”

"In that case, we can only recruit people from outside. The original people will not move."

"It would be great if we could recruit outsiders to invest in building factories. The large number of people would probably overwhelm us. I guess that's what the leaders have in mind. Only in this way is it most beneficial to the development of the town and to open up wasteland." Farming is the choice of the lower class."

"Hey, let's just worry about this. It's not necessarily what the leader has planned."

"In other words, we are just chatting when we have nothing to do. Who of us can still work properly and have to go to open up wasteland and cultivate land? Wouldn't that be a fool?" The two of them burst out laughing.

It sounds like they are workers from the next town. Judging from their clothes, they are in good condition and are public sector workers.He is better informed than ordinary people, but he doesn't know much more.

But these are enough for a thoughtful person. Zhao Wenduo stood at the counter, holding a accounting book in his hand, seeming to be taking inventory with his head down, but his heart moved, maybe she could take this fool for granted.

The next day was a day off. Zhao Mingyu had been scheduled for today's itinerary the night before. Zhao Wenduo didn't explain much. He only told him to go to Xiangyang Town today and asked him to accompany him.

Every time at this time, Zhao Wenduo hopes that this time will pass faster, otherwise he will have to find an adult to accompany him whenever something happens, and it will be inconvenient to go out alone to do anything. Like this time, it must be with the family. The person she was dealing with was a 14-year-old girl. No matter how sincere she acted, a few people would really take her seriously.It would be nice if she didn't treat her like a mischievous child.

Calling Zhao Mingyu was also a helpless choice. With an adult by his side, even if he didn't say anything and used quack words, he could shake up the place.

The two set out from home in the morning and rode bicycles to Xiangyang Town in an hour or so.

Most people in the town knew about the notice issued by the government, and after a little inquiry they found out where the wasteland was.

The person who was asked for directions was an old woman who kindly advised her: "You foreigners don't know, but that place is not that nice. If there is nothing serious, don't go there. Even if you go there, don't get too close. It’s okay to just walk around, but it’s not easy to go inside.”

"Okay, thank you, ma'am, we understand." Zhao Mingyu nodded and thanked her.

Waiting to turn around, after walking a certain distance, he started to ask Zhao Wenduo: "Lao San, what do you think about this? Allocating land to open up wasteland will take a lot of work and may not make money. The village is already occupied. After all these years, you still don’t know that farming depends on the weather. In good years, it’s okay and you can have a good harvest. But the price of food is there. Even if you can sell it for a good harvest, you can still make some money. It's nothing compared to all this effort. If something goes wrong with God, whether it's drought, floods, wind, rain or hail, it's all good to reduce production, but it's not like there's no harvest. You haven't cultivated enough land. I’m still thinking about opening up wasteland for farming.”

Zhao Wenduo started talking about outsourcing the wasteland, but he didn't realize that he wanted to farm it. When he got to the town and listened to these people, he realized that the wasteland was outsourced to increase the area of ​​cultivated land.I have been a villager for half my life, and when my broken body was eating from a big pot, it was enough to just farm the land.Now that the conditions are good, why are you still thinking about finding land for farming?He really doesn’t understand!

The matter hadn't been settled at this time, and Zhao Wenduo couldn't explain too much to him, so he just said something with a vague concept: "Those people didn't explain it clearly. The wasteland does not necessarily mean farming. Then Isn't it possible to build a house and a factory or something? The agricultural industry is not limited to anything, as long as it can bring economic benefits to the town." Zhao Mingyu, who was quite depressed at first, suddenly lit up when he heard this: "Hey Ah, Third Brother, do you have any plans to put aside the construction of the factory? That's feasible. If nothing else, I can take care of the construction work. How big is the factory? Do you have any drawings? "

Now that he has reached his profession, no matter what he is going to do, he is in high spirits.

Zhao Wenduo was also speechless. If it was just perfunctory, where could he find any drawings for him?

"Those are all things that will happen later. We haven't even finished the horoscope yet. We have to wrap up the land first before we can make any plans."

"Yes, yes, it's important to do business first."

With the correct words, Zhao Mingyu was no longer in a hurry and walked west together.

The wasteland is about four or five miles away from Ximo in Xiangyang Town. There are a few villagers living here and there. Beyond that is a large wasteland. At the end is a small earth mountain, several hundred meters wide on both sides.

"This place is really big. If we build a factory, we can build several rows of it." Zhao Mingyu is only thinking about construction. He has already laid out the general layout in his mind, and has begun to calculate the approximate number of people and materials needed.Halfway through the calculation, I suddenly realized a problem, where did the money come from?
"Third brother, building a factory is not a small matter. It requires a lot of money. I don't know anything else. Just building a factory is a big deal. Our family doesn't have that much money?" What are you going to do? manage?The latter sentence was not asked, but the meaning was obvious.

Yes, the gold store deposited so much goods, and really didn’t have much cash on hand. With such a big problem put there, it’s hard to say what she was trying to do.

Zhao Wenduo slumped his shoulders and instantly lost his spirit, as if he had just realized this.

"What are you doing? You're like a deflated rubber ball. I didn't say anything." Looking at the three girls who were deeply shocked, Zhao Mingyu still felt a little bit unbearable, but all he said was To be honest, no matter how well-planned you are, you can’t make it happen if you don’t have the money.

"...No, you must have just thought that you have no money, oh my god -" Zhao Mingyu's eyes widened, and then he realized where the key point was, and shouted angrily: "You girl, you are really not good at all." I know what to say to you." I said hello last night, and I came running over in the morning, annoyed that I was doing useless work for a long time.

He was fussing over here, while Zhao Wenduo was thinking of recruiting people over there. He had chosen this wasteland, but this was the right place. He had to make up his mind when he went back and couldn't delay, in case anything happened again. misfortune.What you get in your hands is yours, not even one step away.

It's just that the most important step is money. Don't even think about the existing working capital. It is definitely not enough. Apart from the gold shop, which is considered a fixed asset, there is actually no one else that can be used as collateral.

Yes, Zhao Wenduo just thought of a loan.No matter how cheap this wasteland is per acre, the sum of such a large area is not small, otherwise there would be no people buying it.As for the evil legend here, it was more than 40 years ago since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it has long been forbidden to become a spirit. No matter what, there will be a reasonable scientific explanation, but she is not worried about this.

"Third brother, you're talking. It seems like there's no use in doing this." Zhao Mingyu couldn't stand beside him and stomped his feet. It was still quite cold in early spring, and the ground was not yet civilized. The longer he stood, the colder would start to creep in. Jump up under your feet.It's flat here with no shelter, and the wind blows cooler than other places.

"It's not completely useless. Maybe you can see that the money is coming." Looking at the empty grassland in front of him, Zhao Wenduo said softly.

"What, you can still see the money?" Zhao Mingyu stretched his neck and looked forward intuitively, and reacted in the next second. Just when he was about to give him a lesson, he saw that Zhao Wenduo had already raised his feet and walked back.

"Hey - is this the end?" Knowing that this was almost the result, Zhao Mingyu could not help but feel a little disappointed. He had already planned how many people would be equipped and how much materials would be used as he had agreed to build a large factory.Why did we withdraw right away? Hey, it was a waste of time this morning.

But no matter how unhappy he is, it is true that he has no money, and there is no other option but to go back.

Zhao Mingyu thought he would just go back, but when he entered Xiangyang Town, Zhao Wenduo turned around and went straight to the town government.

Father Zhao, who was following behind, really couldn't guess what the three girls were thinking. It was hard to call out to her with so many people coming and going on the avenue, so he could only follow them along.

Zhao Wenduo also acted quickly. When he arrived at the town government courtyard, he went directly outside the window of the guard room and explained his purpose to the people inside.

"Uncle, I'm here to inquire about the wasteland. Do you know who is in charge of this area in the town?"

The uncle in the room raised his eyes and looked at her. He felt that this was not a secret and it was inconvenient to tell her, so he said: "Yu Chunlin from the land office on the second floor is in charge of this matter. You can ask him to find out. But today is the day off." , no one is here. Just wait until you get back to work on Monday, and you can come over and ask."

"Then do you have his contact information here? Can you give me one?" Zhao Wenduo was afraid that he would have doubts again, so he added: "I came here specially during the holiday, and I just wanted to finalize the matter of buying the land. Otherwise, I won’t have time if I go to school on Monday.”

The guard uncle didn't pay much attention at first. A little girl looked like a primary school student. She asked about the wasteland just because she wanted to ask about the general situation so that she could go back and report to the elders at home. Maybe she had relatives who were more interested in this. .He didn't expect that she would just say that she wanted to buy land and she could decide it herself. This surprised him.

"You said you wanted to buy land, is that true?"

No wonder he asked this question, anyone would be suspicious of him.

Zhao Wenduo also wanted to meet the person in charge earlier, so she wanted to tell the truth. It was up to the other person whether she believed it or not. She nodded and was about to say 'yes' when someone next to her answered on her behalf.

"What she said is true. We really want to buy land." Zhao Mingyu hurried over from behind and just finished speaking.

Adults are always more convincing than children. The guard uncle nodded clearly: "Oh, it's true." He didn't ask further, thought for a while and said, "I really know about Yu Chunlin's family. , right in this town, not too far away. Otherwise, you guys just wait here while I ride there. The round trip is only [-]-[-] minutes. If he happens to be at home, let him come over."

"Oh, that would be too troublesome, brother." Zhao Mingyu expressed his gratitude with a feeling of emotion.

"No trouble, no trouble, it only takes a few minutes." The guard uncle waved his hands, put on his coat and came out. He closed the door behind him and warned: "If anyone comes here, tell them that we can't do business today. "

"Okay man, we get it."

After he walked out of the gate and rode away on his own bicycle, Zhao Mingyu said: "This is so warm-hearted. If you want to call me, just tell me the address and let me find it by myself. You won't have to run away by yourself after all this trouble." One trip.”

"He may still have some concerns, or he may have other plans." After all, they are just strangers who have just met, so it is not easy to report the staff's address.Although it's just a small town, once you know the name, you can find out by asking someone casually, so it's not too secret.But you have to show off your attitude.If I didn't say anything, I was worried that it would delay official business again, so I did this.It seems a bit redundant, but it also has its own considerations.

It turns out that Zhao Wenduo guessed it right. The guard uncle was also worried that the two of them would just go there and get complained by Yu Chunlin. It would be better for him to go over and ask what his attitude was before making arrangements to avoid being complained too much.On the other hand, he was also focused on the word 'buying land'. These days, he was worried about the wasteland. This notice had been posted for several days, but there had been no movement. The leaders also had a headache.

After finally waiting for someone to ask, how can I let it go? If the superiors find out, why don't they scold him like a bastard.It was also because I wanted to show off that I took this trip.

It's fitting that he should show his face like this and be credited with a great achievement.Yu Chunlin happened to be at home. As soon as he heard that someone was going to buy wasteland, he immediately got excited, jumped off the ground and followed.

It took exactly 10 minutes before and after the two entered the compound and saw the father and daughter standing at the door.
