Return to 1981 and start from breaking off the engagement

Chapter 108 I don’t want her to suffer like this

In the early winter season, the temperature in the north drops sharply.

There are only a few days until the end of November, and Yao Weijun has streamlined two more businesses in addition to the speculation business.

Sugar canning and clothing processing.

On the afternoon of the second day after You Damin returned, he called the village department and informed Yao Weijun to come to the county tomorrow to meet with Director Hao, who is in charge of production tasks at the County No. [-] Garment Factory, to discuss outsourcing work.

Yao Weijun went happily and met Director Hao in the reception room of the clothing factory.

"Comrade Yao, this batch of cotton coats is the style we have been producing. It can be said that as long as you can complete the processing tasks on schedule with guaranteed quality and quantity, we will be able to continue our long-term cooperation in the future!"

Director Hao is a chubby old man, wearing thick eyeglasses and work clothes, and said with a smile.

"There is absolutely no problem with the quality. We will arrange special personnel to inspect it to ensure that it meets the factory's requirements."

Yao Weijun nodded solemnly in response.

In the first time of cooperation, Director Hao gave me the simplest tasks, sewing buttons on cotton coats and cutting threads.

Each cotton coat requires sewing a total of six large buttons, a purse and four small buttons on the shoulders. Counting the cutting threads, the manual cost of a cotton coat is [-] cents. If the cotton coat is damaged during the processing, follow the instructions Deduction from retail price.

At the same time, the factory will send a skilled worker to provide on-site guidance for a few days and arrange vehicles for pick-up and delivery.

Yao Weijun knew in his heart that Director Hao mainly looked at You Damin's face, so he would provide such support and assistance.

The first batch of [-] cotton coats will be shipped to Gejia Village this afternoon. The cost will be settled on site when the goods are delivered ten days later. The next batch of external tasks will be re-scheduled depending on the quality of the completion.

Yao Weijun has no objection to this. Everything has to go through a process. It is simply unrealistic to receive the job of making garments at once.

Because sewing buttons is purely manual work, he had enough time to buy a sewing machine, which would not affect the manual work at all.

After bidding farewell to Director Hao, Yao Weijun rode his motorcycle to the Chengnan Timber Factory.

After finding Ge Huaiqing, a buyer from the factory whom I met before, I ordered a batch of wooden boards and planned to transport them back to make some shelves to store canned products.

In addition, using Ge Huaiqing's car, he went to the market to sell some items such as baskets, and transported them back to Jiachang Village together.

After receiving the task of processing cotton coats, Dou Lili was responsible for the next step, and he began to formally plan the production of canned sugar water.

I had dinner with Ge Huaiqing at a restaurant at noon, and followed the car back to Jianchang Village in the afternoon.

Everything was unloaded in the south courtyard. Fortunately, the courtyard was big enough. According to Yao Weijun's plan, three of the eight rooms on the south side were originally used for roasting, three were used for canning processing, and the remaining two were used as warehouses.

That night, he hosted a banquet for the village party secretary Li Qiming and the production team leader Chen Shoushan. There were more than 7000 kilograms of red dates in the village. Li Qiming waved his hand and settled the account at 450 kilograms, at a price of [-] cents per kilogram. The total is two thousand, [-] yuan.

Yao Weijun readily counted the money on the spot and bought all the red dates in the village.

"Weijun, you asked me to find people. I have found three for you so far. Do you want them to go to your house to find you tomorrow morning?"

Li Qiming pretended to have money and asked with a smile.

"Okay, I'll be at home tomorrow, just come over anytime."

Yao Weijun nodded and agreed, having already planned in his heart.

The next morning, after he waited for the three people to arrive, he talked about the work content and remuneration in public.

Making canned sugar water, the salary is the same as that of the three people who roasted seeds and nuts, 20 yuan per month, and taking care of two meals a day, but you have to be careful at work. There should be no more or less red dates and sugar water in each can. Try to keep it as low as possible. consistent.

After these three people all nodded seriously, Yao Weijun took them to work.

Although the cans and bottles haven't arrived yet, some preparation work can be started first, such as re-panning the stove, making wooden shelves, cleaning the workplace, etc.

Of course, during this process, he will not let outsiders see the box of citric acid. In the future, he will also add citric acid to the sugar water himself, and will never pretend to be an outsider.

In the next few days, Yao Weijun's south courtyard became even more lively, as if it was a busy scene of a small factory.

"The yard is still not big enough..."

Yao Weijun feels that in the future, the two trading and processing places will have to be separated, and then another yard or factory will be built to the east of his home.

"Just because we dug the cellar and transported so much soil, we can add a larger piece of open land to the east of my house. Then we can just build a simple factory. At worst, we can put the cans produced in the cellar."

He had an idea in his mind and immediately went to find Chen Shoushan. When the latter heard that he needed an open space, he readily nodded and agreed.

After Yao Weijun finished talking about this matter, he stopped by Aunt Liu Cui's house in the village.

Tell Aunt Liu Cui that she can go to work in Gejia Village at any time.

"Guardian, who am I looking for alone? I don't recognize anyone. It would be so embarrassing if they don't use me."

Aunt Liu Cui was a little frightened and whispered with an unnatural smile.

"Hey, my third sister is in Gejiacun, have you forgotten? Besides, you have protected so many matchmakers, how can it not be the same as a birthplace? Don't worry, Aunt Cui, I have already told my third sister, you go Just ask her and she will arrange it for you!"

Yao Weijun explained patiently.

"Look at my brain, why didn't I remember that Wei Fang was in Gejiacun? Cheng, then I have nothing to worry about. I won't embarrass you if I go!"

Aunt Liu Cui said happily.

Yao Weijun did not leave immediately, but explained to her seriously again. After the latter had written down everything, he went out.

weekend.

In the Tongzi Building in the Dawang Temple Joint Area.

Yao Weijun walked into Director Feng's home carrying two bottles of Moutai.

"Hey, come on, why do you bring such good wine, haha... Brother Yao, you are so polite!"

Director Feng's face was full of joy, and when he was about to invite his wife to cook, Yao Weijun stood up and stopped him.

"Don't bother sister-in-law. When I came here just now, I had already ordered food from the restaurant diagonally across from your community. I think it will be delivered to you shortly!"

Director Feng rubbed his hands happily after hearing this. Yao Weijun was so comprehensive that he became even more cordial and enthusiastic, as if he had been a good friend for many years.

"Director Han...will you come over today?"

Yao Weijun asked casually while smoking a cigarette.

"Come, but we're still holding a meeting in the factory right now, so it'll probably be a little later."

Director Feng's full name was Feng Shiyong. He enthusiastically poured tea for Yao Weijun and explained with a smile.

"The batch of bottles you ordered will be delivered tomorrow. How about it? It won't delay your business, right?" He said proactively without waiting for Yao Weijun to ask. "It's okay. As a buyer, you have to consider our factory. It's not just for me to produce. I can completely understand this."

"Brother Yao, you are so angry. With your great business spirit, you will make money no matter what you do, haha..."

"You can't say that. I mainly rely on the help of my friends. There are three gangs for each hero. It's easy for me to make friends!"

"..."

The two were chatting and laughing, and soon it got dark. Not long after the food was delivered to the restaurant across the street, Deputy Director Han, the glass manager, also knocked on the door and arrived.

That night, Yao Weijun was chatting and laughing, frequently raising glasses and toasting, and he became familiar with Deputy Factory Director Han over time.

But when he returned home late at night, he found that Yu Xiunan was still waiting for him.

"Drink less in the future. I'm really worried about you riding a motorcycle alone at such a late night. Let's not drink so much next time, okay?"

Yu Xiunan felt sorry that her man was working too hard, so she handed the hot tea she had just brewed to Yao Weijun, mixed it with warm water, and personally helped him wash his feet to relieve his fatigue.

"Well, I listen to my wife." Yao Weijun was a little tipsy. He put down his tea cup, leaned forward and pecked Yu Xiunan's white forehead, and continued in a warm voice:

"Don't worry, it won't be long before I try to drive a car, so you don't have to worry about me."

"Oh, you really drank too much. The main thing I don't want to see is that you drink so much! As long as you drink too much, it will be dangerous whether you are riding a motorcycle or driving a car!"

Yu Xiunan reminded with a helpless frown.

Yao Weijun felt warm in his heart. Looking at the beauty in front of him, he subconsciously twirled his fingers.

"You're already so drunk, and you still want to be bad?" Yu Xiunan felt his gaze and couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry.

At this moment, a blush appeared on that pretty face unconsciously...

……

The next morning, the glass factory's car delivered two thousand cans and bottles as scheduled.

Yao Weijun directed the unloading of the goods and began to lead the three workers to process the first batch of canned red dates in sugar water.

After the sugar water was boiled, he personally blended it with citric acid, put it into bottles, and put it in a pot for fumigation. The three workers all started to get busy.

Because it is the same as the roasted seeds and nuts, the method of rotating fumigation is used. The pot is steaming over there, and the packaging begins again. This cycle is repeated, and the efficiency is still very high. Before noon, two hundred bottles have been produced. Canned sugar water.

Yao Weijun made a rough estimate. Once the workers become proficient, they can produce [-] bottles a day without any pressure.

"It's still a little slow. It seems that after the business stabilizes, we need to add a few more people to expand the production scale. Otherwise, we will have to work on 25 bottles of cans until this time next year!"

While he was thinking about this, his father Yao Xiangui called him across the flower feather wall.

"What's wrong?" Yao Weijun walked through the circular arch and found that his mother was also here, and asked with a slight frown.

"I heard in the greenhouse that you hired another person here, and you have to pay them wages. It costs a lot of money. Anyway, your mother has nothing to do at home. I'll call her to help you!"

Father Yao Xiangui whispered.

"This work is very tiring. My mother is old and I don't want her to suffer from this..."

Yao Weijun frowned and said.

This is what he really thinks. He really doesn't want to see his parents worry too much about his own affairs.

"Mom, it's okay. I've been doing farm work for most of my life. This little work of yours is nothing. Okay, just give me whatever you want to do. I promise to be no worse than them!"

Mother Zhu Mei also whispered, with a determined look on her face.

When Yao Weijun saw this, he didn't want to stop him too much. The provincial parents thought he was useless and were sad. He thought for a while and asked his mother to go to the canning processing place, where she was responsible for filling sugar water and red dates into the cans.

"From now on, I will go to the greenhouse to study for an hour every morning and afternoon, and I will also do this at other times!"

His father, Yao Xiangui, looked at the canning processing site with his hands behind his back for a while, and suddenly felt that he knew everything. In front of three other villagers, he expressed his stance with a smile.

"Hey, old man, you are really successful, but you can't take away our jobs! Haha..."

One of the three villagers, who was only a few years older than Yao Weijun, was named Ma Zhanguo. After hearing Yao Xiangui's words, he deliberately teased and laughed.

"Whoever steals your job, I will help my son as a matter of course and it will not affect you!" Yao Xiangui responded with the same smile, with a strong look of pride on his face.

With the addition of my mother, the canning process was significantly accelerated. By the end of the afternoon, nearly [-] bottles of finished cans had been produced.

Yao Weijun found that at this pace, nine hundred bottles a day would be enough. If his father also came to help, a thousand bottles would be enough. Even if he worked overtime, he could get more.

"Tomorrow, let Yugola take away [-] bottles to test the effect. I will also take some with me to the four joint venture areas to share some with Lao Dai and the others.

All these two thousand cans and bottles will be used in the morning the day after tomorrow, and then Zhan Guo and the others will be asked to help fill the space so that we can build a factory in the future..."

Had dinner in the evening.

Yu Xiunan was preparing lessons in the back room, and Yao Weijun was resting on the bed, planning the distribution of cans and arranging workers alone...

It's early the next morning again.

You Damin arrived as promised. After getting off the tricycle, he was the first to notice the neatly stacked cans on the ground.

Yao Weijun specially made several large wooden boxes, and placed the cans inside for easy stacking.

"Did you really do it? Hey, come on!"

You Damin was overjoyed. He picked up several cans from the wooden box and looked through them. He shook them with his hands from time to time, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger.

"I said I was going to make canned food, could I still lie to you?"

Yao Weijun handed him a cigarette and deliberately asked with a sideways glance: "Brother You, you don't think I'm joking, and you have no intention of taking these five hundred cans away today, do you?"

"How can that be possible? I have brought all the money! Don't worry, we also have friends who sell fruit in the county. We have already reached an agreement and are willing to help me distribute it."

You Damin patted his bulging work bag, pulled Yao Weijun to the steps of the main house, and said excitedly, "Guess what? When that fruit-making friend heard that I provided him with canned food, he was so excited that he almost died. Call me dad on the spot!”

"Isn't that true? How much interest can you give him to make him betray his ancestors?"

Yao Weijun was also in a happy mood and deliberately chatted with him.

"It's definitely not that small!" You Damin didn't say it too carefully, and continued the topic just now:

"The profit is on the one hand, but the other thing is that it just matches the fruit he sells! Those fruit stall owners in the city sell canned food on their stalls, hey, it's so convenient!"
