Extra 2: Cooperation in Frontiers to Run Cold Storage (Part 1)(1/2)
August 23, 1983.
The cool breeze is trustworthy and the autumn moon is boundless.
As the sun and moon rotate, and the stars and rivers turn, the scorching heat of 1983 is about to dissipate, ushering in the end of the summer season.
The beginning of autumn comes before the end of the summer heat, and there is the white dew after the end of the heat. The arrival of this solar term makes the fishermen on the outer islands realize that the irritating heat is getting less and less, the sea breeze begins to cool, and the refreshing autumn is coming.
Accompanied by the early autumn wind, Wang Dongmei returned to the island.
Ever since he started working at a public restaurant, he had less time to go back to the island because the restaurant business was so booming that he, the manager, really couldn't leave.
manager!
Whenever he thinks about his position and status, this educated fisherman always looks low-key and humble, but he is quite proud in his heart.
Who would have thought that a man with only an elementary school education could transform into a suit, leather shoes, and tie and become the manager of a company?
The development of Dazhong Restaurant and Tianya Island gradually prospered, which allowed him as a manager to rise and gain a unique position in the county.
Now even leading cadres in the county will greet him when they see him on the street, hand him a cigarette and call him manager.
Not for anything else, just because sometimes when they entertain friends, classmates, and relatives from far away, they can talk to him and ask him to leave a good private room.
But when he returns to the island, he is no longer Manager Wang.
As he walked down from the passenger ship to the pier, the old men who were repairing the ship squinted at him: "Damei, why are you back? I haven't seen you for a few days."
This time it was Wang Dongmei's turn to take out a cigarette and fill it for her uncles and gentlemen.
When he was about to explain, the old man who had taken the cigarette said with a smile: "I miss my child. No, it's summer vacation now. Da Guo has gone to college. Dazhao has nothing to do. Didn't he go to the county to help you?"
Now the production team has a lot of business in the county. In order to take care of their relationship as husband and wife, Wang Yi has specially approved the establishment and prioritizes the couple to go to work.
In this way, their children will become left-behind children if they stay on the island.
Fortunately, this term is not used yet, and the neighbors of the production team are like a family. Grandparents and grandparents take care of them, as well as school teachers. The mentality of the students is different from that of the left-behind children in the future.
After all, they can go to the city to reunite with their parents on Sunday. Then they can go to the playground, the park, and the Children's Palace, which they can only see on TV.
For the children of fishermen, they also look forward to their parents working in the county.
Wang Dongmei scattered the cigarette in a circle, and he pinched the remaining cigarette case and threw it on the ground.
A woman shouted: "Dame, please be careful. Teacher Wang said you are not allowed to litter anywhere. Now every now and then there are comrades who come to visit and study, as well as tourists from the city. We have to pay attention to our quality."
Wang Dongmei laughed dumbly.
He is used to throwing them in restaurants. After all, the restaurant has cleaners who keep it clean and hygienic during business hours.
So he leaned over to pick up the cigarette case, but a child rushed over and snatched it away: "Haha, it's Jinjian cigarettes. These are cigarettes only found in the capital. I finally found the cigarette case!"
There were also children who were catching crabs in the sea and ran over on the waves: "Show me, show me..."
Wang Dongmei laughed directly when she saw this...
The old man next to me was smoking a cigarette and asked: "You are so old, why did you suddenly come back today? I didn't even hear from you."
Wang Dongmei said: "I came back to see Teacher Wang. I heard some news in the city and I wanted to tell him about it."
"Teacher Wang is in the small building on the east side," someone said.
Someone else laughed and said: "What small building? It's called a hotel or a guest house. It's the hotel for our production team!"
Wang Dongmei is busy working in the popular restaurant and doesn't know much about the new things happening in the production team recently.
However, he knew that there was a lot of construction going on on the island, and he was deeply touched by this every time he returned to the island:
There are fewer and fewer thatched cottages on the island, while there are more and more new buildings.
Compared with the changes in the production team, he feels that his island is more like a city.
The development of production teams is one of the most common idioms on television and radio today.
Changing with each passing day!
Knowing Wang Yi's location, Wang Dongmei walked towards Dongshan.
The stone beach in Dongshan has been cleaned up, and now a building has been built.
Da Dao is busy with the construction team. They are doing renovations.
There are doorposts on both sides of the gate of the small building, with a poem about dragons and phoenixes engraved on them:
White tea, pure joy, nothing else, I’m waiting for the wind and you
Wang Dongmei now has a strong desire to improve her culture. After all, her son has become a college student. Although he is a student at TV University, he is the first college student in his family.
As a manager and the father of a college student, he must have some culture.
Recently, he has been reading ancient books frequently. At first, he read "Twenty-Four Histories" because the leader once said that "Twenty-Four Histories" is worth reading by the Chinese people in their lifetime.
But his educational level is too low, and he cannot chew through this tome.
Then he switched to "Tang Poems and Song Ci", and tasted the beauty of culture from it.
Now that he saw this poem, his eyes lit up. He read it three times in a row and exclaimed: "Beautiful! Beautiful!"
Boldly came out to shovel cement. After hearing what he said, he was surprised: "Why are you talking about your name here?"
Wang Dongmei laughed loudly: "I'm not reading my name, I'm reading this poem!"
Daring laughed and said, "This poem is really good. Teacher Wang's culture is extraordinary."
Wang Dongmei nodded: "Does this need to be said? Where is Teacher Wang now? I have something to do with him."
"Here." Leaning out from behind the railing on the roof, it was Wang Yi.
Wang Yi greeted him: "Manager Wang, why are you back suddenly? What's the emergency with me?"
Wang Dongmei walked up the stairs and felt secure stepping on the cement-paved roof.
He said: "Teacher Wang, please don't dismiss me. What kind of manager am I in front of you?"
Wang Yi smiled and said: "You are the one who is humble in front of me. You are a real manager. What's wrong? Why did you come to me?"
Wang Dongmei said: "Early this morning, I got up and washed and cleaned at the door, and then suddenly two uninvited guests came to our restaurant, one was tall and the other was of medium build."
"The two of them came to have breakfast because they heard that our restaurant's seafood noodles are famous, so they came to try it."
“I heard that they had a northwest accent, so I asked them where they were from, and guess what?”…
"They are from the Fisheries Supply and Marketing Cooperative of the Border Autonomous Region!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yi roughly understood what he meant: "Are they coming to our county to purchase seafood?"
Although current economic policies still tend to be conservative, the free market economy model is greatly impacting people's business concepts.
In this case, supply and marketing units in various places have sent personnel to conduct business exchanges in other places.
Wang Dongmei said: "It's not that simple. Of course, Teacher Wang, you have indeed guessed their purpose. They really want to come to us to purchase seafood."
"What's going on? Listen to me carefully."
Several construction workers who were listening to them cursed and threw away their cigarette butts when they heard this:
"Are you a storyteller now?"
"It's such a simple thing, but you still have to explain it in detail."
"You're a toad on the road, pretending to be a Jeep! With half a knife in your waist, you're pretending to be a cultural person!"
Wang Dongmei took out another pack of cigarettes to spread the smoke for them, and at the same time laughed and cursed: "You big bosses, get out of here, you should go to work, this is leadership exchange work, it has nothing to do with you."
The members laughed loudly, took their cigarettes in their mouths and continued working.
At this time, Wang Dongmei continued: "That's what happened. Last year, some cadres from our county went to Shanghai on a business trip and stayed at the Lushan Hotel."
"It happened that a salesman from the food company in Qiuci Prefecture of the Border Autonomous Region also lived there. They had a conversation before going to bed. Our cadre introduced our Fuhai Bathing Beach and introduced the large and small yellow croakers and hairtail fish that are abundant throughout the year.
Things like cuttlefish and pomfret.”
"When the salesperson heard that our area is rich in aquatic products, very close to Shanghai, and has convenient transportation, he went back and introduced our situation to the leaders of the unit."
"Didn't the central government issue the "Notice on Relaxing Policies and Accelerating the Development of Fisheries Industry" this year?"
Wang Yi nodded.
Wang Xianghong, who was giving instructions below, came after hearing the news. He happened to hear Wang Dongmei mention the "Notice", so he climbed up the stairs and said, "You are talking about the "Ten Instructions", right?"
Wang Dongmei said: "Yes, old captain, I am talking about the "Ten Instructions"."
"The sixth instruction among these ten instructions says to adjust the purchase and sale policy of aquatic products. Aquatic products must be classified into three categories of products, with production and sales meeting each other and market regulation."
Wang Yi also knew this.
Because these ten instructions are a big deal for fishermen, their issuance means that from now on, the purchase tasks will be cancelled, and aquatic products will be directly exempted from production and sales, and will be adjusted by the market.
To put it simply, the emergence of these "Ten Instructions" confirms from a policy perspective that fishermen can freely buy and sell the fish they catch.
Obviously, there is a shortage of seafood in the border areas, so the food factories in Kucha area saw business opportunities and came directly to Fuhai area to purchase catches.
This is a big deal!
Wang Xianghong cheered up.
