Chapter 294 Mission Complete
"Alas! Xiaowen, you are so far-reaching and comprehensive. If you hadn't told me in advance, I wouldn't have thought what would happen next year." Sun Lianying sighed.
"Uncle Sun, that's how business is done. You come and I compete with each other, it's just survival of the fittest.
We started relatively early, and as long as we control high quality and build a brand, we will definitely be able to get a share of the cake." Li Wen said with confidence.
"Brand, did you name it?" Sun Lianying asked doubtfully.
"Yes or no, the brand and the name sound the same thing, but they are completely different.
Just like when we go to a department store to buy bicycles, they are all bicycles. Why do we all like to buy Forever, Phoenix, and Flying Pigeon.
These brands have the highest prices and are actually the best sellers. Is it because the quality of these brands is better than others? This is the brand effect.
Therefore, our handicrafts must also strive for excellence, not in quantity, but in good quality. Only in this way can we be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and make money in the long run." Li Wen, who is a lecturer, pretended to be awesome.
"Well said, you will write a document and hand it in later. In order to earn foreign exchange for a long time in the future, our Qin Province must not fall behind others." Sun Lianying pounded the table and shouted excitedly.
"No problem, but uncle, remember to give tractors to our village." Li Wen stood up and said goodbye with a smile.
Li Wen did not stay long in the provincial capital and returned to Weihe County with his fellow villagers.
In the next few days, Weihe County and Xinzhen became lively, especially Xinzhen.
Coinciding with the end of the Autumn Harvest Festival, Xinzhen was noisy with gongs and drums, fired firecrackers, performed yangko and sang operas, and it was just as lively as the Chinese New Year.
I can’t help it, I’m so excited after earning so much! This time the money has been distributed, the town has received 600,000, and the Sanxing Village brigade has received 300,000.
Although the final payment for this batch of goods has not been settled, considering the purchase of raw materials below, the town commune and brigade received more than half of the money.
To say that the one who gained the most from this Canton Fair is of course the Sanxing Village Team.
There is no way, the people are so direct. They don't care about foreign exchange, they only care about immediate interests, and the most important thing is to have enough food.
After Sanxing Village received the money from its superiors, considering the huge amount, most of it was kept in the account of the brigade. However, each participating household was also given 100 yuan, five kilograms of pork, and fifty kilograms of white flour.
As soon as the town received the allocation, it provided electricity to the Sanxing Village Brigade at the request of the Sanxing Village Brigade cadres, which was the only one in the county.
The town did not delay this matter for a moment. Not only did the power station provide electricity to the Sanxing Village Brigade, but it also distributed free light bulbs to every household.
The meaning is very obvious, it is to let everyone keep up their efforts and tie more brooms at night.
"This electric lamp is just as bright as a small sun, much better than a kerosene lamp." Wang Chunmei said excitedly.
In the evening, Li Wen's family sat happily in the foyer eating. The children and adults stared at the electric lights and giggled excitedly.
"I don't dare to look at it. If I look at it for too long, my eyes will go blind." Li Wen quickly stopped everyone's stupid behavior.
After eating, Li Wen helped his father smash the straw with a wooden hammer and suffocate the straw with water to make it tougher.
In the room, my father was lying on the mat tying a broom, while my mother was tying the broom whiskers with string and trimming them with scissors.
"Dad, according to the contract, the order will be delivered in more than a month.
There are more than 200,000 orders left, including hundreds of thousands of large and small brooms alone, which our village can’t finish." Li Wen walked into the room after finishing the straw and said.
"Can't the order be delivered slower? It's cold and people are idle, so let's do more." Li Deyou didn't stop, biting the string in his mouth and asked in a low voice.
"No, you will have to pay for late delivery of orders, and there will be a lot of money." Li Wen smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Awen, this won't work, that won't work either. You have many ways, what do you think we should do?" Wang Chunmei said nervously when she heard that she was going to lose money.
"It's okay, I already have a solution. Mom, you should go to bed early! My waist can't stand it after sitting for too long." Li Wen looked at the watch and it was already 12 o'clock in the morning, and urged him quickly.
"Okay, okay, go to bed after you finish this. You go to sleep first!" Wang Chunmei smiled and nodded.
After breakfast the next day, Li Deyou and Li Wen went to the brigade headquarters to explain the matter to Li Juncai and other cadres.
"It's true that we can't finish it. Although the autumn harvest is now done and the fields are planted, there isn't much work left.
But we can only ship out hundreds of thousands of goods in a month and a half at most, and we still have hundreds of thousands of orders left!" Li Juncai nodded and admitted.
"Master, uncles and aunts, here's what I think. It's already November, and it's already getting cold.
Many people in our town's brigade are good at these manual jobs, such as tying brooms. We can just invite them to work in our brigade.
When the time comes, they will be willing to give part of the labor costs to the brigade where these members belong to, and then give part of the expenses to the members." Li Wen blew a circle of cigarettes and expressed his thoughts.
"Okay, let's do it this way. The surrounding brigades are all relatives. If we ask them to do it, it won't go to outsiders." There was a loud cheer in the conference room.
Next, the village brigade cadres rode four bicycles to the commune and several nearby brigade.
When the commune and other brigades heard the suggestion of Sanxing Village, they all laughed. It is really good if everyone agrees. If you don't agree, why wait.
In this way, over the next month or so, the Sanxing Village brigade became crowded with people, and relatives from ten miles and eight villages regarded Sanxing Village as a place to work.
Sun Lianying also accepted Li Wen's suggestion and decided to brand the next batch of goods, and let the cadres personally serve as quality inspectors, rejecting the unqualified ones.
This intense work lasted until the first half of the month before it was completely completed, and the Sanxing Village Brigade also received the 300,000 yuan it deserved.
However, due to manpower constraints, Sanxing Village only received a little over 200,000 yuan, and the other 80,000 yuan was earned by other brigades.
Although the profit has been reduced by nearly one-third, the Sanxing Village team is already very satisfied.
According to the labor income of the New Year brigade, each household basically received 300 yuan. Counting the previous 100 yuan, these dividends were worth the income of more than ten years in previous years.
Sun Lianying promised Li Wen ten tons of fertilizer, and two tractors were also in place. It can be said that the Sanxing Village Brigade was very prosperous this year.
During the past ten days at the end of the year, Li Wen basically had wedding banquets every day. There was no way, the Sanxing Village Brigade was too rich, and people from all over the country wanted to marry girls to the Sanxing Village Brigade.
During the Chinese New Year this year, every household in the Sanxing Village brigade eats meat dumplings, and the treat is two meat, two vegetarian, and four hard dishes.
This makes relatives and friends from all over the country envious. After the new year, more young men in Sanxing Village get engaged.
Li Wen didn't have a good time during the Chinese New Year, and his relatives had to introduce him to people. However, most of them were illiterate girls, which made Li Wen retreat repeatedly.
After the new year started, the Sanxing Village Brigade used the remaining 50,000 to 60,000 yuan to buy a water pump and build a cement canal.
Through Li Wen's relationship, he spent more than 30,000 yuan to purchase machinery and set up two small factories, a flour mill and a vermicelli factory.
Sanxing Village has suddenly become more prosperous and more impressive than some remote small towns. Li Wen believes that as long as they don't mess around, Sanxing Village will not be bad in the next ten years.
