Chapter 657 Prepare for New Year's Eve

The leaders are gone.

On the way back.

Leader Yuan and Leader Zhao were sitting in the same jeep, discussing matters in low voices.

Leader Zhao Da asked, "Brother, do you think that between Xu Daliang of Guanzhuang Production Team and Luo Xuan of Shilipu Production Team, which one of them has more advanced water conservancy projects?"

Leader Yuan smiled slightly, "If we conduct an on-site inspection and analyze it carefully.

Of course, Luoxuan’s construction plan is more reliable, and the final results will be greater and more lasting.”

"but!"

Leader Yuan sighed, "I still prefer to establish Xu Daliang as a typical figure in water conservancy project construction."

Leader Zhao Da's cheek twitched: "You mean Xu Daliang's construction method is more inspiring?"

Leader Yuan nodded, "Brother! After our on-site inspection, of course we are more inclined to agree with Luo Xuan's construction method, but what about others?

They did not go to the Shilipu production team to truly understand the brilliance of this construction plan."

"And now we urgently need to inspire the fighting spirit of our members!"

Leader Yuan lamented: “Looking at our brother provinces and cities, we have achieved numerous results and achieved remarkable results.

On the other hand, in our Tuocheng area, we have never achieved any significant results in terms of agricultural construction."

Leader Zhao nodded, "Yes, now we urgently need someone who can lead all districts and counties and the majority of members.

They are all typical figures who actively devote themselves to water conservancy construction and farmland infrastructure construction."

“Morale can be boosted but not discouraged.”

finally,

Leader Zhao Da decided: "Let's push Xu Daliang out first."

Leader Yuan nodded in agreement: "I agree. The water conservancy project construction of the Guanzhuang production team is not only good-looking, but also can achieve immediate results."

Leader Zhao Da seconded the proposal, "Okay, this time we will push Xu Daliang to the front desk first.

Let’s talk about it later, after the Shilipu production team has achieved fruitful results in grain production.”

~~~~~

"Why! He is a model worker?"

"Why can Xu Daliang become a model for water conservancy construction in the Tuocheng area?"

The hotel office is now basically equivalent to the fixed office location of the Shilipu production team.

Usually when the cadres of the production team want to discuss anything, they basically do it here.

When Accountant Li learned that Xu Daliang had been identified as a model for water conservancy construction in the Tuocheng area.

and Yuyang City Model Worker.

Accountant Li was completely angry: “The water conservancy facilities built by their Guanzhuang production team are just fake!

Wait until next spring. If the earthen dam is not destroyed by the surging flood, then you can twist off my head and use it as a chamber pot!"

Luo Xuan patted the aggrieved Accountant Li and comforted him, "Don't talk about other people's rights and wrongs behind their backs.

Aunt Xu's construction plan ended up being a success or failure, which needs to be tested in practice before it can be finally determined.

It’s too early to talk about this at the moment.”

Luo Xuan explained, “Furthermore, I believe that the superior leaders must have considered this arrangement.

It’s just that our performance at the top level is not enough and we cannot understand the deep-seated intentions of our leaders.”

"Luo Xuan, reporting to the boss, why do you want to run away from something like this?"

Wang Chunhua was puzzled, "Why do you push Comrade Dou Jiande and Accountant Li to the front desk?"

Luo Xuan yawned,

"I am an educated youth who came to jump in the queue. It is very likely that I will return to my place of origin sooner or later. What do I need all this credit for?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel warm in their hearts.

Everyone was moved and just wanted to say something.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"

There was a knock on the door.

Subsequently,

Bai Fugui's mother-in-law pushed open the door and walked in: "Comrade Luo Xuan, there is a table of drivers in the hall.

They asked me to ask if I could use the coal in their car to replace the money for food and accommodation?"

"Can't!"

Without even thinking about it, Luo Xuan rejected the drivers' plan: "This is a red line and is absolutely non-negotiable."

Everyone did not understand Luo Xuan's unwillingness to adapt.

Wang Chunhua said, "As far as I know, all the restaurants along the national highway are here to save money on buying coal.

I would often ask the driver of the coal truck to unload hundreds of kilograms of coal to pay for food, cigarettes and alcohol.”

Those coal truck drivers themselves drive heavy trucks.

If you add the trailer hanging behind the carriage, each of these coal trucks can pull 2,30 tons of coal.

No matter at any time, there are people who are greedy for petty gains.

Naturally, there are also scum among these coal truck drivers traveling from north to south.

They often want to save money on a night's accommodation, save money on two meals, or they may covet a few packs of cigarettes or bottles of wine from a roadside shop.

Among them were some coal truck drivers,

Then they would offer to let people in the hotel unload several hundred kilograms of coal from their cars to pay the bill.

A carload of coal weighs dozens of tons.

If you dig out a few hundred kilograms of coal from above, no one will be able to find it.

To put it from another perspective, use coal to cover food, tobacco and alcohol expenses.

This can be regarded as a win-win situation for the coal truck driver and the roadside restaurant.

Especially those roadside restaurants, they are the most cost-effective: you can spend less than 10 yuan on meals, accommodation, tobacco and alcohol.

You can buy hundreds of kilograms of coal. Therefore, the activity of exchanging coal for food is the most popular in roadside restaurants, and those in charge welcome it as a good thing.

Just as everyone in the office was opening their mouths to persuade Luo Xuan, asking him to agree to the request of the drivers.

Unexpectedly,

Luo Xuan, who has always been very tactful in doing things, was particularly firm this time, "They are them, we are us. We absolutely cannot agree on this matter!"

Accountant Li asked what was the reason?

Luo Xuan explained, "There are abundant coal resources here. When we go to the coal mines to buy coal directly, the price is not expensive."

"The reason why I don't agree with those drivers using coal to pay for their meals is because of their long-term plan for our hotel's business."

Seeing everyone confused.

Luo Xuan asked them, "So far, have you ever encountered that kind of thing, even if you suffer from hunger?

You have to drive dozens of miles more, and you have to come to our hotel for food and accommodation as a driver?"

Accountant Li nodded, "Of course. And I believe that every roadside store will have regular customers like this if it has been open for a long time.

It’s not because of anything else, but because he has a good impression of that restaurant and feels that he must go to that restaurant to spend money.”

Luo Xuan shook his head, "What you said makes some sense, but it's not everything."

"Just imagine, other hotels can steal coal from trucks without permission. However, our Shilipu Hotel will never do that."

Luo Xuan asked them, "It's been a long time. What do you think the people in charge of the units that buy coal or the coal mines that sell coal will have towards our hotels?"

I asked this question myself,

Dou Jiande who was present scratched his head and couldn't come up with an answer.

Wang Chunhua thought for a long time,

He cautiously asked: "I seem to understand a little bit, you are talking about the people in charge of these coal mines, or the responsible comrades of the coal-using units.

How do they treat drivers privately exchanging coal for food? Their mentality is completely different from that of the drivers?"

"right!"

Luo Xuan nodded, "The drivers are eager to use coal to exchange for food, tobacco and alcohol. But those responsible comrades of the coal units and the coal mine managers who sell coal.

They don't get any benefit from it.

Not only that, the heads of those units that use coal always watch helplessly as the property of their units is lost in vain. Do you think they feel better?"

"It's just that it's been a long time, and every driver is doing it. These responsible comrades feel helpless about this abnormal phenomenon."

Luo Xuan said this,

Accountant Li seemed to have come to his senses: "The drivers live and eat in other hotels, and they will cause trouble.

But when they live here, the coal they pull will not suffer any loss.

In other words, if the driver takes back the voucher for reimbursement of food and accommodation, it will be stamped with our Shilipu Hotel seal."

Wang Chunhua took up the conversation: "Then, the people in charge of these coal-using units will feel more at ease.

Do you know that this time, the amount of coal brought to their unit has not decreased?"

During this period, many units did not have the ability to build their own floor scales.

And because all coal mines are at least collective in nature.

At the same time, those coal-consuming units are also public units.

Everyone is business-to-business.

Therefore, the coal pulled out of the coal mine usually only needs to be weighed once in the coal mine.

As for those coal-using units, they only make visual inspections to see if the coal in the carriages is full or not.

Even the inspector of the receiving unit saw that the coal in the carriage seemed to have been touched by someone.

Often at this time, smart drivers will secretly stuff a pack of cigarettes into the car.

If one pack of cigarettes doesn't solve the problem, just pack two packs.

According to Luo Xuan's idea: the drivers live in other hotels and are prone to mischief.

But as time went on, the coal truck drivers on the entire road, including the coal mine directors, and those from the coal-using units or comrades, were

Everyone knows that Shilipo Hotel will not accept "using coal to pay for meals", which is a behavior that harms the public and enriches private interests.

And among the driver comrades, there are actually many people who don't disdain to do such sneaky things.

Over time,

An upright driver would choose to eat and stay at Shilipu Hotel without hesitation.

In order to prevent himself from being suspected of harming the public and enriching himself.

at the same time,

I am afraid that some coal-using units, or even the person in charge of the coal mine, will give a fatal order to the drivers who come to pull coal: Shilipu Hotel must be used as a designated place for food and accommodation for coal truck drivers.

If one day, I can do the last one.

I’m afraid you don’t have to worry about the business of the Shilipu Restaurant. It’s definitely packed every day!

If there is no other, I have it. If there is no other, I have my essence.

I've waited until other hotels have imitated it, but they can't imitate the cleanliness of Shilipu Hotel!

any hotel,

If you want to improve their hardware facilities and improve the taste of their food, these things are very easy to do.

But if you want to earn a clean and good reputation.

This is not something that happens overnight.

Moreover, the reputation has been ruined again and again, and it will be very, very difficult to turn it around again.

When the reputation of Shilipu Hotel spreads throughout Saibei. At that time, others will not be able to catch up even if they are riding donkeys.

On the matter of resolutely refusing to allow the driver to use coal in exchange for food, those present reached a unanimous consensus.

Next,

It’s time to discuss how to make arrangements for the members during this year’s Chinese New Year.

Luo Xuan asked Dou Jiande, "In previous years during the production and New Year celebrations in Shilipu, how did you distribute benefits to the members? What entertainment activities were arranged?"

Dou Jiande replied: "According to the rules of previous years, it's the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Except killing pigs and sheep.

The production team will also distribute half a catty of white flour and half a catty of red dates to each member.

Then, 2 kilograms of yellow rice will be given to each household; each person will be given 2 taels of flax oil and 3 taels of sunflower seeds."

The New Year customs in Saibei are very different from those in Bashu.

The Shilipu production team distributed white flour to everyone so that they could take it home and steam steamed steamed buns to honor their ancestors and gods.

The remaining white flour is used by the members to make dumplings.

The yellow rice is given to the members to make yellow rice wine. This yellow rice wine is sticky and has a sweet and sour taste.

It is a fine wine used by Saibei people to entertain relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year.

As for red dates, that’s because the members are seriously short of candy tickets.

The jujubes from Saibei are of good quality and have high sugar content. They are often used to make jujube dumplings and can be used as a substitute for white sugar and brown sugar.

Life is hard for the folks!

During the Chinese New Year, you can only eat so much.

As for Dou Jiande, what he said was killing pigs and slaughtering sheep.

When it comes to the Chinese New Year, each production team only has a quota of slaughtering two "New Year pigs".

The villages here have a large population,

Just two New Year pigs were slaughtered, including the skin and bones, which amounted to less than 200 kilograms of meat.

The actual amount distributed to each member is about half a catty, and that's pork with bones.

As for slaughtering sheep to celebrate the New Year?

The meat from the two fattest sheep in the production team would not exceed 60 kilograms in total. This was also with bones.

I just want to distribute this little meat to the more than 400 members. At most, everyone can only smell a little fishy smell.

Such a pitiful bit of mutton.

The members of the commune are usually reluctant to eat it, so they boil it into mutton dumplings.

Only when the most distinguished guest comes to the house, will he be willing to scoop out a small spoonful of sesame seeds and cover it on top of the noodles.

Take it out to entertain others.

Luo Xuan probably also knows that life in Saibei is indeed difficult.

This place is not like the production team members in Bashu Province: after all, Bashu Province is evergreen all year round.

When commune members go to their own plots, they can also bring back some vegetables to make up for the meal.

finally,

Luo Xuan decided: "This Chinese New Year, let the folks in Shilipu have a unique New Year. It must be lively and joyful!"

When Zhang Xiaoli next to her heard this, she

I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart: It seems that Luo Xuan is planning to pay out of his own pocket and give it to the members to celebrate the New Year.

I will add the thank you chapter tomorrow. My hands are a little sore from typing these two days.
