Chapter 220 Just resell the machine and forget it
Zhang Hongliang glanced at Liu Xinyu. Although he didn't know why Liu Xinyu was in such a hurry, he still replied without hesitation: "Work more every day. Assembling and adjusting will be completed in two days."
When Party Secretary Zhang heard this, he became a little anxious.
Looking at Liu Xinyu's appearance, it seems that he has other arrangements for two days later. He also wants Liu Xinyu to help run a supply source!
Sure enough, I heard Liu Xinyu say immediately: "I have to rush back to the capital on the 19th. I have something to do."
"It's summer vacation, what can happen at school at this time?" Lin Haocheng asked curiously before Zhang Party Secretary opened his mouth.
Liu Xinyu explained with a smile: "It's not about the school. Didn't I receive two calls in the morning? One was from Director Fang, and the other was from Secretary Wang, Director of the Equipment Introduction Department of the Ministry of Chemical Industry. He said there was a call on the 20th.
Interpretation is urgently needed for foreign affairs activities.”
"Interpretation?" Zhang Zhishu asked puzzledly.
This time it was Lin Haocheng who popularized interpretation knowledge to Zhang Zhishu: "Interpretation is oral translation. I heard that it is very demanding because you have to switch between two languages freely, so you must have solid bilingual knowledge. I didn't expect that you are so young.
You can actually interpret."
Then he gave Liu Xinyu a thumbs up.
In fact, interpreting not only requires solid bilingual knowledge, but also extensive non-linguistic knowledge and skilled interpreting skills.
Zhang Hongliang also had plans to return to school early, but his original plan was to leave on July 27th or 8th.
Since Liu Xinyu had to rush to the capital on the 19th, he might as well advance a little earlier so that the two of them could take care of each other.
Zhang Hongliang returned to school early because he had to participate in a scientific research project. The machine tool that Liu Xinyu was responsible for translating before had several parts that needed to be adjusted.
He is the only one among all the students participating in scientific research who has a Level 4 fitter certificate. The professor in charge of the scientific research values him very much and hopes that he will return to school at the end of July to debug the machine tools in place without affecting the progress of scientific research.
However, he did not tell his plan. Instead, he drank the herbal tea in the cup and immersed himself in assembling and debugging the machine again.
Liu Xinyu's home definitely couldn't accommodate so many machines, so in the morning the team arranged for a few people who had decided to work in the factory to carry the debugged machines to the newly cleared factory.
It is said to be a factory building, but it is actually a large conference room and an activity room in the brigade headquarters, each of which is more than fifty or sixty square meters.
Assuming that a sewing machine occupies two square meters, these two rooms are obviously not enough to accommodate so many machines.
Of course, this is not something Liu Xinyu needs to consider. What she needs to consider is to assemble and debug the machine as soon as possible.
"Be careful when moving, don't bump into each other." Zhang Zhishu shouted loudly to several girls and wives who came over to carry the sewing machine. After thinking about it, Lin Haocheng seemed to have no use here, so it was better to let him go to the brigade headquarters.
Instructing everyone how to discharge: "Old Lin, please go and see how these sewing machines are discharged, and try the machine by the way."
The first thing Lin Haocheng had to do when he came to the Minqin Brigade was to inspect and debug the sewing machine. He didn't say anything. Following the instructions of Party Secretary Zhang, he followed a group of girls and wives carrying sewing machines to the brigade headquarters.
When the yard of Liu Xinyu's house finally became quiet, Party Secretary Zhang came up to Liu Xinyu and asked in a low voice: "Xinyu, if the brigade doesn't make schoolbags, what do you think can be done easily and make money?"
Liu Xinyu sighed in her heart, knowing that she could not escape Party Secretary Zhang's question!
"Grandpa Party Secretary, let me ask you something first." Liu Xinyu stopped what she was doing and looked at Party Secretary Zhang very seriously with her big eyes.
Zhang Zhishu said quickly: "You ask."
Liu Xinyu's question is actually very simple. She just wants to ask Party Secretary Zhang if he has hired a good tailoring master.
If there is no good cutting master, her suggestion is not to set up a factory, just sell the machine.
Today, some people came to her door to ask her if she had any spare sewing machines to sell. They included people from the Minqin Brigade, the Struggle Brigade next door, the Red Star Brigade, and even the Hongqi Brigade further away.
This should be just the beginning. If she is willing to sell, more people will definitely come to her door.
These seventy or eighty sewing machines will definitely fetch a good price, but the overlocking machine is more troublesome. Unless someone like Tailor Lin specializes in sewing business, it is impossible for ordinary people to buy an overlocking machine at home.
Zhang Zhishu was addicted to cigarettes. He took out the cigarette pouch and just put it in his mouth. Thinking that Liu Xinyu seemed disgusted with people smoking in her house, he put the cigarette pouch in front of his nose, sniffed hard and put it away again.
After a moment of silence, Party Secretary Zhang sighed and said: "Our county has never had a clothing factory before, but there are a few small tailors like Tailor Lin. It is not that easy to find a good little tailor to work as a master in the factory.
.
The county is helping to find a suitable tailor, and the captain has also contacted Tailor Lin.
If Tailor Lin wants him to join the factory, he will only do tailoring without any apprentices."
Only doing tailoring without any apprentices?
Presumably neither the Party Secretary nor the team leader liked it, otherwise Party Secretary Zhang would not have the expression he has now.
Liu Xinyu smiled, pondered for a moment and asked: "How much salary will the team prepare to pay per month if we only do tailoring without any apprentices? How much salary will we pay if we have apprentices?"
If the salary is suitable, you can let Fang Jing give it a try.
Fang Jing is still very clever in tailoring.
She only taught Fang Jing two styles of backpacks, but now she has four or five styles.
Being able to develop two styles of schoolbags into four or five styles, Fang Jing has actually touched the threshold of design.
As long as you give her a design, she will definitely be able to cut clothes that fit the design.
Liu Xinyu will return to the capital soon. It is impossible to ask her to help contact the source of goods, so I will try my best to dig out some useful information from her for the brigade to set up the factory.
Liu Xinyu must have had her intentions in asking this, so she told Liu Xinyu very simply the monthly salary proposed by Tailor Lin.
Just cutting without an apprentice costs 40 yuan a month.
This is indeed not high in the city, but for farmers who are still struggling to make ends meet, it is really not low.
Of course, this salary is not high for Fang Jing, so Liu Xinyu does not intend to recommend Fang Jing to join the factory.
The factory run by the brigade can actually make money whether it produces schoolbags or clothing. It's just a question of how much or how little.
Fang Ming went to the county town today with two sets of children's clothes. He has not returned yet and does not know the situation. Therefore, Liu Xinyu cannot say for a while what business Liu Fang and his family will do in the future.
Faced with Zhang Zhishu's burning eyes, Liu Xinyu decided to tell the truth: "If we make schoolbags, there are so many children studying in the country, so we don't have to worry about sales. Not only do we need a good tailor, but we also have high requirements for sewing workers."
Our team has neither cutting masters nor skilled sewing workers, so it will be difficult to make money right away.
Otherwise, we should just sell the machine and ensure that the team can make money!"
