Chapter 340 Tea Industry Association
"Comrades, the meeting was held. I know that it is the tea picking season now, and everyone is very busy. But today's meeting is also very important and has to be held. In the beginning of spring, the city's tea factory has ruthlessly tore up the purchase agreements signed with various tea farms in our county. This caused the tea farmers in our county to be very worried at the time. I remember someone told me at that time: Deputy County Mayor Luo, now the city's tea factory is not coming to our county to purchase tea. Where can our tea be sold this year? I told him at the time: Don't worry, the county will not ignore it."
"County Magistrate Luo, that person is me!" A middle-aged man in his forties stood up from the seat in the conference room. Everyone smiled.
"Yes, it's you. How is the production of Mingqian tea this time?" Luo Changjun asked.
"The tea grows well this year. Although the temperature is relatively low after the Chinese New Year, our tea seems to have not been affected by the low temperature and grows better than any year. The tea grows well. I estimated that this crop of output is equivalent to the summer tea last year. In addition, the purchase price this year has not only not decreased, but has increased slightly. Mainly, Director Zhang of Meiziao Tea Factory thinks that our tea is of good quality and actively increases the price. However, we are required to ensure quality when picking tea. We will definitely do this. Regardless of whether or not the price is added, the things we sell to others must be of quality and quantity. Everyone said, right?"
Luo Changjun nodded, "Okay, then I'll talk about why I'm so anxious to gather everyone together. Yesterday, a man who claimed to be the assistant director of the Zijiang Tea Factory came to me and told me that he wanted tea from our county. I asked him, they would throw it away as long as they want, and if they want it, there is no such reason in the world! It's hard to collect water! Even if all the teas in our Xintian County rotted, the tea factory would not expect to get a piece. The tea factory didn't want our tea, did our tea rot? Everyone, have your tea rotten?"
"County Magistrate Luo, our tea has not rotted. Before we can pick it up, the county has contacted the manufacturer for us. The price is higher than last year's purchase price!"
"As soon as my tea was picked, it was towed away by the car sent by the tea factory to our tea farm. Now I'm afraid it has turned into tea and packed."
"I heard that the bamboo tube black tea from Meiziao Tea Factory also won the National Gold Award. In the future, when I have money, I will buy a box of black tea to try it. Let's see what the tea made from the tea we grow ourselves tastes?"
...
"Now I understand why Uncle Robert had to hold this meeting." Zhang Yaohua whispered.
"Why?" Zhang Youping asked.
"There is a problem with the tea in the city tea factory. I think we come to our county to buy tea. Now Uncle Robert must be worried that the tea farmers in the county will sell the tea to the city tea factory privately." Zhang Jiaohua said.
"Why do you have to sell tea to the city tea factory privately?" Zhang Youping asked in confusion.
"There is a problem with the tea in the city's tea factory. We must buy the tea from our county. Since we can't buy it through formal means, we will definitely go to the tea farm to secretly buy it." Zhang Jiaohua said.
"That's true." Zhang Youping nodded.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the venue was so lively, Luo Changjun quickly pressed his hands to calm everyone down. "It seems that everyone hates the behavior of the Municipal Tea Factory. However, I am still worried that if the Municipal Tea Factory finds you privately and wants to buy your tea at a high price, what should you do?"
There was a buzzing sound in the conference room immediately, and everyone immediately started to talk enthusiastically.
"County Magistrate Luo, we have signed a contract with the tea factory. After the county tea factory tore up the acquisition contract at the city tea factory, it not only did not lower the price, but also actively increased the acquisition price and signed a purchase contract with us. They are so kind and righteous, we cannot be ungrateful. Even if the city tea factory gives us a high price, we will not sell a piece of tea to them!"
"Yes, I will definitely not sell tea to them!"
"Yes, just do it!"
...
Luo Changjun slapped the table, "Yes, I just said that although our fiery fields are poor, the fiery fields still have backbone! At the same time, I also warn those who intend to secretly sell tea to the city tea factory. Since you have signed a contract, you will be bound by the contract. Once someone is found to have violated the contract, the county will impose severe punishment."
Everyone in the venue expressed their determination not to sell tea to the city tea factory, but once the city tea factory raises the acquisition price to a certain extent, can these people still fulfill their promises?
Luo Changjun continued to show his killer move, "Have you ever thought about why the tea in Xintian County is so much better than other people's tea?"
Everyone was confused, and they didn't understand this problem.
"It's because our Xintian County has good feng shui!" someone said loudly.
Everyone burst into laughter, and some people followed suit. But everyone just used this as a joke.
"Feng Shui is only one aspect. Our Xintian County is beautiful and the mountains and waters are good, and the tea is natural. But why are the tea in our Xintian County not famous in the past? The mountains are still this mountain, and the waters are still this water, but the tea suddenly got better. I remember that before last year, 70% of the tea farms in our Xintian County were already facing the brink of destruction, but suddenly, the tea in our Xintian County suddenly rejuvenated and the quality improved..." Luo Changjun said this.
Someone had already reacted, and the middle-aged man stood up again before, "It was that child who transformed us. I didn't believe it. Unexpectedly, after the transformation, all the tea trees survived and grew better than before. It was like a different variety. I haven't applied much fertilization so far, but the tea has grown very well."
"Yes. Last year, beggars came to our gardening farm several times. I picked a crop of tea and went back and forth. After the ordering agreement of the city's tea factory was unilaterally torn apart by the city, beggars and us also stopped their cooperation. Before picking this crop of tea, beggars did not come to our tea farm. I wonder if there is anything wrong?"
...
Luo Changjun continued, "This year, our county has added many new tea farms, and the area has almost doubled on the original basis. Don't worry about whether there will be too much tea and whether it will be sold in the future. On the contrary, as long as the tea is of good quality and the larger the output, the more scale it can be formed. In the future, even the tea factory in our county can completely digest the tea in the county. Whether it is the existing tea farm or the newly added tea farm, you can freely choose whether to cooperate with the Meiziao Tea Factory. However, one thing is that those who do not obey the unified deployment of the county and sell tea to the city tea factory without permission will definitely be excluded. Therefore, I think it is necessary to establish a tea industry association to regulate this industry."
At this moment, some people who were thinking about selling their own tea at a price began to hesitate. If, as Luo Changjun said, the quality of tea is so good because it has been transformed by beggars, then once someone knows that the contract is violated, once the tea quality decreases in the future, don’t let beggars transform it again.
The Xintian County Tea Industry Association was established under the initiative of Luo Changjun, but there are still many industry charters to be established slowly. The county arranged houses in the county for the Tea Industry Association as an event venue.
"Beggar, you have really made great contributions to Xintian County. Today, a large area of tea farms was added. If they are willing to cooperate with you, you still have to work hard to transform them. By the way, beggar, you must keep this technology confidential. This is the key to the development of the tea industry in Xintian County." Luo Changjun said.
"Brother Luo, don't always praise him, don't praise the child badly." Zhang Youping said with a smile.
"Youping, I really envy you so much. If my cub is so half sensible, I always laugh every day. Unfortunately, my Zhiyun is a cub. If she is a daughter, she will marry her to a cub in the future. If she begs like this, she will be half a cub. Haha." Luo Changjun made Zhang cub blush with his face.
"Brother Luo, the city tea factory has not received tea from our county. Will there be any reason behind it?" Zhang Youping said with some concern.
"You don't have to worry about this. In our territory, you are not afraid of their cause. With me in Xintian County, they should not try to get a piece of tea from Xintian County. By the way, the tea you received from your tea factory must be tightened and not resold to the city tea factory. Once the tea farmers know about this, it will be troublesome." Luo Changjun reminded.
Luo Changjun guessed that after Xu Wenji went to Xintian County, he sent people to various tea farms first, but he did not expect that the tea farms were very strict in their defenses. Even if they increased the purchase price twice as much as before, no one was willing. Later, when he inquired, it turned out that Xintian County had been on guard against them, and the tea farm was not unwilling, but afraid. So they put their ideas on the tea factory and sent people to the Xintian County Tea Factory and Meiziao Tea Factory respectively.
"Don't even think about it!" Zhang Youping directly rejected the request of the city's tea factory.
But something happened to the county tea factory. Han Changlin, the purchasing agent of the county tea factory, could not withstand the temptation of the city tea factory and sold a batch of tea transported to the county to the city tea factory. This incident was discovered by the inspection station set up in Xintian County on the national highway.
Luo Changjun was furious and ordered the county tea factory to deal with the people involved in the case seriously. The city's tea factory's attempt to obtain tea from Xintian County was completely shattered.
The yield of tea in the Ming Dynasty was not high, but this batch of tea was very important. Because tea in the Ming Dynasty was the best quality of tea in the year. More importantly, this batch of tea was related to the major event of the city's tea factory going abroad to participate in the evaluation.
Fei Zhenglu is now like an ant in a hot nest, restless all day long.
"Manager, in fact, as long as things are not exposed, a national gold award is enough for us. As long as the benefits this year are not affected, who can say something to you?" Sun Fulin said to Fei Zhenglu.
"It's too late. If I had tried to suppress this matter from the beginning, there might not be anything. But now it's a bit late! This matter is so popular that it's too late. These people in the factory want to drive me out of this position. How could they let me calm this matter down? You have to know how my ex was transferred!" Fei Zhenglu shook his head.
The result was really like this. Deputy Factory Director Lu Yingxiang could no longer sit still. He reported Zhao Jinyuan before. But what he didn't expect was that the mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole was behind him. He worked hard to drive Zhao Jinyuan away, but in the end he let others pick peaches. This time, Fei Zhenglu was trying to die by himself, and he sacked his martial arts as soon as he came. How could Lu Yingxiang let such a good opportunity go? He immediately ran to the city to report to the city leaders.
The city tea factory was a star enterprise in the city last year and had a very good development momentum. However, it replaced the helm leader Zhao Jinyuan from the beginning of this year. The city had very disagreements at the beginning. But in the end, it was decided by the city's top leader Pan Yongyu. Unexpectedly, such a big thing happened now.
"Didn't you say that Comrade Zhao Jinyuan was determined to act alone and had serious behind-the-scenes operations in tea procurement in Xintian County, which consumed a lot of funds from the tea factory? At that time, you had conclusive evidence. It was because of the materials you submitted that I transferred Comrade Zhao Jinyuan from the tea factory!" Pan Yongyu did not expect that the final result would be like this, and he was furious immediately.
"Director Zhao has never told us about these situations, and I am not clear about the importance of tea in Xintian County, so I made a wrong judgment. However, Director Zhao is arbitrary and I am not talking nonsense." Lu Yingxiang said.
Pan Yongyu did not listen to what Lu Yingxiang said again, but after Pan Yongyu left, he said to the secretary, "Let Zhao Jinyuan come here." (To be continued.)
