Return to 1981 and start from breaking off the engagement

Chapter 113 Party Secretary’s Concerns

"Brother You, when you come back next time to deliver the goods, I plan to go out for a tour. It may take five or six days. When you come back in the meantime, just give the payment directly to Xiu Nan."

In the hall, Yao Weijun handed You Damin a cigarette and explained.

"Well, anyway, our payment will be the same for both of you." You Damin didn't take it seriously at all, but was a little curious about Yao Weijun's outing.

"Brother Yao, where are you planning to go?"

"Capital." Yao Weijun saw that he was a little surprised, so he explained with a smile: "There is nothing particularly important. I just went to look around and see if there are other ways of doing business. My fourth brother happens to be working in the city, so it's not a big deal. Born in the land."

The canned business is now cooperating with You Damin in the county. Yao Weijun feels there is no need to tell him about going to the capital to find a distributor, so as not to cause him to become suspicious of the cooperation.

Of course, it is impossible for Yao Weijun to really go to the fourth brother Yao Weitao when he arrives in the capital. There is no need for such a hot face but a cold butt.

"Okay, our canned food business has just stabilized. It seems that you can't stay idle again. Good guy, are you thinking about the business in the capital?"

You Damin shook his head with emotion and kindly reminded:
"It's better to play it safe. It doesn't matter if you go for a few days. You have to see clearly the way to make money. People in the capital are very discerning. They can stick to hair better than monkeys. You'd better be cautious!"

"Well, don't worry, Brother You, I know it." Yao Weijun nodded and did not continue this topic.

The two chatted for a while in the main room. The goods were already loaded outside. You Damin finished the settlement, put out his cigarette butts, stood up and left.

In the morning, Yao Weijun went to the greenhouse and called aside the two people who had followed him in building the greenhouse and were willing to grow mushrooms.

These two people are the heads of the family. One is Ma Guangli, who is Ma Guangsheng's cousin, and the other is Chen Youren, who is an uncle to Chen Shoushan.

"Uncle Guangli, Brother Youren, you are usually the most concerned about our greenhouse, and I see it. I will be going out in a few days, so please pay more attention to the greenhouse.

In fact, I will be back in just a few days. If you have any problems in the meantime, you can also go to the village headquarters and call Professor Ling from Chaoyang Commune, and he will help solve it. "

Yao Weijun said to the two of them seriously.

"Okay, Junzi, just go and do your business. We are in the greenhouse!"

"Brother Weijun, don't worry. Apart from eating three meals a day, I will spend the rest of my time here!"

Ma Guangli and Chen Youren each smiled and nodded.

Yao Weijun took them around the greenhouse again, gave them some instructions, and then left.

At noon, he invited the village party secretary Li Qiming and Chen Shoushan to his home for dinner.

Nowadays, when going out, you need to get a letter of introduction from the village, otherwise it will be a big trouble to stay in a hotel in the capital.

"Uncle Ming, Uncle Shoushan, I plan to go to the capital."

At the wine table, Yao Weijun said straight to the point.

"Oh?" Li Qiming was startled, and after pondering for a moment he asked curiously: "Tell me more specifically, what do you want to do in the capital?"

Next to him, Chen Shoushan also put down his wine cup and looked over in surprise.

"There are two things that need to be done at the moment, so I need to go to the capital to try my luck."

Yao Weijun said calmly: "First of all, I plan to take advantage of the less busy time to go around the capital and find a way to contact the vegetable sellers there and find out about the mushroom market. We have a cellar now. In the future, we will have fresh and dried mushrooms." We have them all, so contacting them in advance will also facilitate bulk sales at that time.”

"Yes! It's a good idea to prepare for a rainy day. I think it's feasible."

Li Qiming nodded in approval, then looked at Yao Weijun, waiting for him to continue speaking.

"Also, haven't I made cans of all the dates in the village? Even though people from the county come to buy goods every few days, the sales are still too slow. If this continues, the payment from the glass bottle factory alone will I don’t even have the ability to settle the matter, so I plan to take this opportunity to contact the capital to see if I can find someone willing to distribute it.”

Yao Weijun explained calmly.

"Hiss... Weijun, you helped the village buy red dates. This was a good thing, but it was a bit rash to spread the stall so big."

Chen Shoushan frowned. Yao Weijun's words seemed to him to be true, and he was a little worried for Yao Weijun at this time.

"Weijun, if you like this, go to the capital to try first. If you really can't sell it and throw it away, I'll help you go to the commune and ask if you can transfer the remaining red dates and bottles to the relevant units for disposal."

Li Qiming hesitated for a while and said firmly.

"There's no need for this right now. Things are actually not as bad as you think. Let me deal with it myself first. If I really encounter difficulties that cannot be solved, I will talk to the village."

Yao Weijun didn't expect that Li Qiming and Chen Shoushan were so supportive of him. The latter was even willing to go to the commune to ask for help for this matter, which moved him a little.

"Uncle Ming, Uncle Shoushan, you have given me a lot of support. I know it in my heart. Unless I have to, I will try my best to solve it myself!"

"Okay, then...how long do you plan to go out?"

Li Qiming asked again.

"It won't take long, at most a week."

"Guardian, what will happen to the big shed at the threshing floor when you leave?"

Chen Shoushan was planning to go to the greenhouse to study recently, so he was the first to ask eagerly.

"Don't worry, I've already talked to Uncle Guangli and Brother Youren separately. They were there from the very beginning when the greenhouse was built, and later studied with Professor Ling for a while. With them watching, it won't be a big problem. "

Yao Weijun continued to explain: "Besides, the strains currently cultivated have not yet been completely exposed. I estimate that I will be in time when I come back, so there will be no delay."

"Well, that's good. The greenhouse is the hope of our village, and the commune leaders are also looking forward to it. We must not take it lightly!"

Li Qiming gave serious instructions and finally agreed to Yao Weijun's decision to go out.

"When are you going to leave?"

Chen Shoushan asked again.

"Well, it'll be just for the next few days. The details haven't been decided yet. I have a lot of things I haven't finished yet, so I don't dare to leave, haha."

Yao Weijun responded with a smile.

"Can Party Secretary Qiming and I help? Guards, you don't have to be polite to us. If you need help from the village, just ask, and we will help you if you can!"

Chen Shoushan handed over a cigarette and expressed his position loudly.Yao Weijun pondered for a moment and said solemnly:

"Then I'm not welcome. There are more and more people in the village who are willing to build a greenhouse together. This is a good thing. But when there are more people, they all stay in the greenhouse, which can't help much. At the same time, there is no way to give everyone Everyone has the opportunity to get started.

Since everyone is so enthusiastic about greenhouse cultivation, we can’t let them down, so I plan to start building a second set of greenhouses after I come back this time! "

Yao Weijun paused for a moment when he said this. Seeing that Li Qiming and Chen Shoushan both nodded subconsciously in approval, he continued:
“For the second group of greenhouses, I suggest that the villagers unite and let everyone contribute money and effort to participate. This will not only increase their enthusiasm, but also allow everyone to follow the operation and quickly master the planting technology.

In addition, if the second group of greenhouses is to be built, it should be larger. I plan to build it over dozens of acres. Even if there are many people involved, it will be no problem to build it over a hundred acres! "

"..."

After he finished speaking, Li Qiming and Chen Shoushan did not respond for the time being, but fell into deep thought.

a while.

Li Qiming was the first to speak:

"Weijun, your idea is very good, but there are two issues here. I will tell you what I have to say. Let's discuss it together."

Having said this, he moved the wine cup in front of him and gestured on the table:

"First of all, to build a greenhouse on such a large area, the cultivated land in our village will definitely be used in terms of land. This is not a trivial matter. I have to file an application with the commune leaders first, but I guess it won't be a big problem. After all, it has already been done above. We have been designated as a pilot village.

But the question is, will the villagers have any objections? They are used to digging for food in the fields all year round. Now all the cultivated land has been suddenly converted into greenhouses, and since the first set of greenhouses has not seen any results, I am afraid that You need to think carefully about the choice of greenhouse area. "

After he finished speaking, he did not continue, but looked at Yao Weijun and Chen Shoushan, wanting to hear their opinions.

"Uncle Ming, your concerns are not unreasonable. We do need to communicate with the villagers in this regard, which may take some time and effort. But as for the actual effect of the first group of greenhouses, you don't have to worry about this at all."

Yao Weijun continued loudly: "As a pilot village for mushroom cultivation, with the policy and technical support of the commune and the county agricultural technology station, the first group of greenhouses is currently stable and good, and mushrooms are only a matter of time. I can guarantee this, and it will definitely happen." It’s more profitable than growing crops!”

"Well, as long as you say this." Li Qiming nodded, and then talked about the second problem he thought, "Building such a large greenhouse is also a big difficulty in terms of funds.

Our village cultivates saline-alkali land all year round, and the harvest has always been at the bottom of other villages. Each household does not have much money, and the contribution must be unambiguous, but if they are asked to take the money, they probably won’t be able to raise much..."

After Li Qiming finished speaking, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face. As the village party secretary, the people in the village could barely live on the subsistence line, and he felt that he had a great responsibility.

"Hey Weijun, you just said that you should take the path of villagers' union. What are your specific considerations?"

Chen Shoushan interrupted and asked with a smile.

"This is exactly what I want to say, alliance means that everyone who has the money and ability to contribute, jointly manages the production and cultivation of the entire greenhouse, as well as harvesting and shipping."

Yao Weijun looked calm and continued: "If you have more money, pay more, if you have less money, pay less. I will take care of the rest. We will jointly produce, everyone will take shares, and the income will be distributed according to the proportion."

"..." Li Qiming and Chen Shoushan fell silent again.

Naturally, they could understand what Yao Weijun said, but they were a little unsure about this kind of alliance.

After all, the current policy is still there. If we take a slightly bigger step, it might cause trouble.

"I have already discussed this idea with Director Xiao, and she is very supportive, so Uncle Ming and Uncle Shoushan don't have to worry."

Yao Weijun glanced at the two of them with a smile, and while pouring wine for them, he continued:
"I have always wanted to solve this matter as soon as possible, so I have to ask Uncle Ming and Uncle Shoushan for help. While I am in the capital, I can do some work for the villagers. Is that okay?"

"Haha, since the leaders have agreed, Morishan and I absolutely support it. You don't have to worry about this. We will come forward and try to decide on the people who are willing to participate in building the greenhouse and the specific location of the greenhouse before you come back. !”

Li Qiming laughed with relief, and then said: "By the way, Weijun, what are your plans for the specific formulation of the shareholding and proportion distribution?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. Uncle Ming and Uncle Shouyama should think about it when you are free. I think we should discuss it and work together."

Yao Weijun has not disclosed his thoughts on allocating shares for the time being. He wants to listen to their opinions first after returning from the capital.

As for how much money he expected from the villagers...he didn't have much hope from the beginning.

Since joint production has been proposed, this has already been considered. Building greenhouses is his task as a leader in sideline development. How can he quickly promote greenhouses and make the villagers afford the upfront costs? Yao Weijun feels, This is the only method that is most suitable.

The three of them had a long meal at noon. During the meal, they talked about the future construction plan of the greenhouse until almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

Yao Weijun and Li Qiming went to the village headquarters to open a letter of introduction. After the latter stamped the village seal, he opened the drawer and took out some national food stamps, about 20 kilograms each.

"Weijun, these were issued to the village by the commune before. You can use them when you go to the capital this time, so take them with you."

"Thank you, Uncle Ming. I'll keep it first. I'll put the rest back to the village headquarters when the time comes."

Yao Weijun happily accepted it. Although it is possible to eat without food stamps in big cities these days, it is good to be prepared and use it as a backup.

Now that he had almost finished all the matters at hand before setting off, he looked at the sky and then went to find Chen Shoushan who had already rushed to dig the cellar.

"Uncle Morishan, I'll lend you two people. The weather is getting colder and colder, and I don't have a stove in my house yet. Do you think you can find someone to help me with that?"

He planned to take care of the heating problem at home before going to the capital.

When he first built the house, he used the reserved compartment as a space for storing money. Now he needs to re-install the fire stove between the main house and the side house to facilitate heating in the house.

In houses in northern rural areas, chimney pipes are buried in a corner of the house in advance and then connected to the stove for heating in winter.

Yao Weijun had already blocked the pipes in the compartment, so if a fire broke out, it would not have any impact on the cash he stored.

"You're so good. How long has it been since you started and you haven't even set up a stove yet!"

Chen Shoushan complained to him with a smile, and nodded in agreement, "This is simple, why don't you start tomorrow? I will bring two people to help you do it myself tomorrow!"

"Okay! Excuse me, Uncle Shoushan!"

"Hey, why are you so polite? It's okay!"

"..."

After Yao Weijun confirmed with him, he strolled home.
