Chapter 1820: Build a third factory
After Mr. Chen finished speaking, there was another silence for a while.
After saying this, Mr. Chen regretted it again.
Thinking of the pressure on the old man across from me, and the internal and external situations he faced, it was only a lot more pressure than myself.
No, it should be much more.
Thinking of this, Mr. Chen felt a sense of self-blame in his heart.
I shouldn’t have said that.
Just when Mr. Chen was about to speak, the old man's happy laughter came from the phone, "It's better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Okay, okay."
"Old Chen, I used to think that you could only do economics, but now I know that you are the only one who can do economics."
"And it's a two-pronged approach, but it's still a big deal but not work."
The old man's praise made Mr. Chen unable to react for a while, but in the end he said modestly, "Chief, it's all the comrades below who have done a great job."
"Especially the machinery factory, they are not only engaged in industrial construction He is a good player, and he is also very good at agriculture. ”
"Especially Comrade Yang Xiaotao, these inventions and innovations are all from his handiwork, and our good harvest and increase in grain production are also related to his Yangcun No. 1."
"This threshing machine"
Mr. Chen claimed credit for his subordinates and emphasized Yang Xiaotao's role.
The old man agreed very much after hearing this, "Yes, this Hongxing Machinery Factory is really good, and Comrade Yang Xiaotao is also very good."
"Of course, young people, there are some things that you still need to pay more attention to and guide well."
“I will bring this up at the meeting.”
“However, for now, the food support must be collected as soon as possible!”
“Don’t worry, we will definitely Complete the mission.”
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, comrades."
Hang up the phone, Mr. Chen thought about the meaning of the chief's words. He was able to react to the rest, but he said that Yang Xiaotao should guide him well. What did he mean by this? ?
In his impression, Yang Xiaotao is a good and steady comrade who is also talented and capable.
Based on his understanding, Yang Xiaotao definitely deserves the most credit for the machinery factory being able to reach its current scale.
Sometimes he even wonders, if Yang Xiaotao is given another place, can he bring out a second Red Star Machinery Factory?
Of course, this is just a thought.
Now that the chief is reminding him to guide him well, is there something he doesn’t know?
Or is this a reminder from the chief to protect him?
Mr. Chen is a little confused, but he still wants to get this threshing machine out as soon as possible.
Picked up the plan left by Liu Huaimin on the table and looked at it carefully. The fatigue on his face disappeared and was replaced by a look of perseverance.
other side.
The old man hung up the phone, and the old woman beside him walked in with a bowl of millet porridge.
"The phone call came early in the morning. Today is a day off."
The old man smiled and said, "Lao Chen called and told me good news."
"What good news?"
"The machinery factory has built a machine that can thresh wheat."
The old man took the porridge and told what happened on the phone.
After hearing this, the old woman immediately laughed happily, "So, from now on, there will be no need for people to beat the yellow rice?"
The old woman immediately nodded, "According to Lao Chen Except that corn and peanuts cannot be beaten, wheat, millet, rice, etc. are all fine.”
“That’s great. We need to make this quickly and send it to the farmers before the wheat is finished. .”
"It has already started. By the way, yesterday I heard that they went to the village to thresh wheat. In one day, they threshed 150 tons of wheat, which is more than half of the harvest of a village."
The old man said this, too. Feeling happy, I started to drink in small sips.
“This porridge still tastes like the old district.”
The old man sighed. The wife on the other side was still in shock. When she heard her husband’s words, she immediately smiled and said, “Of course, this is it. The millet sent over there.”
“Oh?”
"When was it delivered? Why didn't I know?"
"You forgot, after the steel plant was built last year, people from the old district came to express their gratitude and sent it by the way."
"Oh. "It's been so long."
The old man drank the yellow rice porridge and swallowed it bit by bit.
It’s just that the millet porridge tastes bitter in your mouth.
"Yes, Mingyue accepted it originally. I was afraid you wouldn't agree, so I didn't tell you."
"By the way, I don't know what the situation is like in Yanzhou."
The old man sighed in his heart after hearing his wife's words and didn't know how to answer.
To say you don’t know is to cheat on your wife.
But to tell the truth is so heartbreaking.
Last year, people who came not only thanked them for sending millet, but also asked for help.
In order to create employment, he built a steel plant in Yanzhou out of selfish motives, thinking that it would drive surrounding development.
But it turns out that some things are not to be taken for granted.
The steel plant was built, workers were recruited, raw materials were available, and products were made, using the latest steel-making methods.
It stands to reason that now that things are here, with production and products, there should be no problem.
But less than two years have passed, and the steel mill is deteriorating.
First of all, there is no industrial area around the factory. Just a few small factories cannot use so much steel.
There are only a few large factories within a hundred miles that can be used, and the steel produced cannot be used at all.
So after the products of the steel mill are produced, they are in a state of surplus, and many of them are kept in warehouses.
Then there is the transportation problem. If the products of the steel mill are to be transported out, trains are indispensable.
This was originally considered when building the factory, but now it seems that the traffic problem was still underestimated.
After this product is released, there are not many tasks. In the past two years, there are so many people in the steel plant, and most of them have nothing to do.
Because they are workers, they are supplied with food every month, and it is still a large amount. The local food production is not much, and a lot of food has to be allocated from other places.
After this, the locals can no longer afford it.
According to reports from the people he sent, if this situation continues for one or two years, the steel plant will become a burden on local development.
And he did something bad with good intentions.
Seeing the old man gently drinking rice porridge, the old woman felt the other man's depression, stepped forward to take the empty bowl, and then asked, "Did something happen over there?"
The old man sighed, and then told the story about the Yanzhou Iron and Steel Plant. The old woman sighed after listening to it.
“Tell me, did I do something stupid?”
The old man looked ashamed, “If these resources are used in other places, will there be better results? ”
"Now, not only has it not played a good role, it has also damaged the local economic construction."
"I did something wrong!"
The old man fell into self-blame.
He rarely asks people to do things for personal reasons, but this time he did the wrong thing out of selfishness.
“What’s wrong is good. In my opinion, you are right.”
The old woman took her husband's hand and put it in front of her knees to smooth the rough marks. "There is nothing wrong with us doing something for the people."
"The only thing wrong is not finding a suitable path." If there is a project, wouldn’t that be it?”
“Just like Hongxing Machinery Factory, I heard from Qiuye that their machine tool tasks have been scheduled for three years.”
“That’s not all, what kind of engine project? , and demand exceeds supply.”
"With such a project, are you still worried about not having any tasks?"
"Are you still worried about the workers not having jobs?"
The old man knew about the Hongxing Machinery Factory, but after hearing what his wife said, the old man was confused Shaking his head,
“It’s different.”
“They are a machinery factory, which is different from a steel factory.”
"The steel factory provides raw materials to the machinery factory, and those machines cannot produce."
The old woman said seriously, "Then just build a machinery factory."
" How can it be so easy to build one? This machinery factory not only needs people, but also machines, and also ""
As the old man spoke, he suddenly stopped and looked at his wife opposite.
“Build one?”
The old woman smiled and nodded, "You, you still haven't persisted on this road."
"Since the steel factory has been built, why not build a machinery factory? This one is not bad?"
>
"Just do it with the Red Star Machinery Factory Like the Second Branch, Wang Huzi can do it in the northwest, and he can do it well, so why can’t he do it in Yanzhou? "
"At the very least, I think Yanzhou is much better than the northwest."
Pa
The old man slapped his thighs, a look of joy on his face.
“That’s right, that’s good.”
“It doesn’t have to be too large, it just needs to have output.”
“A steady flow of water, a steady stream. , right?”
The old man felt as if the cork had been pulled out of the bottle and everything was flowing smoothly.
"Have you figured it out now?"
"Yeah!"
The old man regained his wise appearance and began to think about how to build a machinery factory.
"I will have someone go to the local area to investigate and see if we can."
But before he could finish speaking, the old woman patted her thigh and interrupted, "I said You, you have to leave this kind of thing to professionals.”
"Don't worry about it."
The old man's expression froze after hearing this, and then he laughed at himself, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have made a personal mistake again."
"You said, this Who is the best person to leave this matter to? "
The old woman shook her head. She said so much today because she was giving advice to her husband. She usually didn't get involved in work matters.
“You can just discuss this with Lao Chen.”
After saying that, he picked up the bowl and walked out, "By the way, I asked Mingyue yesterday, and she said that if she comes back during the Mid-Autumn Festival, she won't be with the team, so as not to attract attention."
"I'm like this I am thinking about buying some clothes and gifts for my children, and also need to buy some furniture and supplies. I will live here from now on. , you have to be well prepared.”
“Remember to pay me back your allowance.”
“You have to save money in the future.”
The old man listened. His face turned red immediately. He invited guests to dinner quite frequently during this period, and money was a bit tight.
Seeing his wife leaving, the old man sighed.
Although he is a big housekeeper, in this family, he is also in charge.
Do you want to set up a small treasury?
As soon as the idea came up, he killed it.
It’s not that I don’t want to do it, it’s just that all the money I have is being taken away by others.
No need to do it.
Alas!
A penny stumps a heroic man.
Money will only be spent when it is spent.
Thinking of this, the old man thought of Tang Mingyue. This child's parents left during the war and had been by his side for many years. He and his wife regarded him as their own child.
She also thought about giving her husband's family a home of her own like Xiaolong in the future.
It's good now, my own cabbage has been...
But I still can't explain it clearly.
Even the child can only be said to have been adopted from the disaster area.
What made him even more upset was that after this incident, he no longer wanted to get married.
It is enough to say that having children is enough.
Who wouldn’t be upset after hearing this?
Just thinking about this child made the old man feel softer in his heart.
"This brat, just think of it as helping your children."
The old man muttered, then picked up the phone and dialed.
Mr. Chen had just read the plan sent by Liu Huaimin, which clearly pointed out the production requirements for the threshing machine.
Obviously, it cannot be made by just any small workshop.
This is probably why they looked for help from the First Machinery Department.
After all, there are several other machine departments, but none of them has a stall as big as the machine department that can be spread out quickly.
Mr. Chen was thinking about it, and when he was about to get up, the phone on the table suddenly rang.
Mr. Chen looked stern when he saw the red landline phone.
I then walked forward, picked up the phone, and heard a familiar voice again.
"Old Chen, I have something here that I want you to help me think about."
The old man explained the situation directly, and Mr. Chen was dumbfounded after hearing this.
He knows about Yanzhou’s affairs. To be honest, he shouldn’t have made it so big in the first place.
Because in his opinion, there is no need at all, and there is no "soil" around him. It is just to take care of the "nostalgic complex" of the old brothers, and he can't say it.
Now that he is talking about it again, it makes him very embarrassed.
If you want to solve the problem, you have to start from many aspects.
"Old Chen, think of a way. If it doesn't work, let the machinery factory help. Don't they have two branches?"
"Just build another one."
< br>
When Mr. Chen hung up the phone, he understood the other party's intention.
Build a branch factory.
"The third branch? It's not impossible."
Thinking of this, Mr. Chen immediately asked someone to find a famous machinery factory in the Yanzhou area.
It’s too late to start over, so we can only rebuild.
