In a flash, it’s the last two days of the month, and it’s time to go to school for the monthly exams.
Lin Mai was unable to attend the monthly exam in October because she was abroad. Teacher Wang was very dissatisfied and her face looked very gloomy.
Lin Mai had no choice but to work hard to reduce his sense of existence.
Fortunately, the two days of exams passed by in the blink of an eye.
In the afternoon after finishing the last class exam, Lin Mai picked up his schoolbag and ran away, fearing that he would see Teacher Wang's dissatisfied eyes again, and even more afraid that she would catch him and give him a slap in the face.
She rode her bicycle to Jinxiu Garment Factory.
It's been several days since she came back, but she hasn't held a plenary meeting yet.
She arranged to hold a plenary meeting after the exam this afternoon.
When she arrived at the small conference room, everyone was already there.
Everyone tacitly allowed Chen Feng to speak.
Chen Feng also did his part and explained the progress of several construction sites.
Because the current focus is on the construction of government project overpasses and residential areas on Qingnian Road, and there are many manpower arrangements, the progress is fast.
The government stipulates that the overpass will be officially opened to traffic on May Day next year, but according to the current progress, it can be completed one month ahead of schedule.
Qingnian Road Residential Community has also arranged enough manpower to start all the buildings at the same time, so the progress is very fast. It will be completed in about ten days, and you can move in if you pass the acceptance inspection.
As for the factory buildings and the company headquarters building, progress was slow due to lack of manpower.
Chen Feng planned to wait for the completion of the Qingnian Road residential complex and transfer all migrant workers to the factory project to speed up the project.
After the overpass is put into use, all the migrant workers who built the overpass will go to arrange the construction of the company headquarters building, so these migrant workers will not lose their jobs.
Lin Mai had no objection to Chen Feng's arrangements, but repeatedly emphasized that production safety and quality issues must be taken seriously.
Chen Feng nodded coldly and left.
There are no problems in other departments such as the delicious food, but the roasted whole lamb of "Human Fireworks" gradually gets cold in winter.
Lin Mai listened to Wang Li's report and asked: "Why is the roasted whole lamb so cold? Have you found the reason?"
Wang Xiaoli nodded: "I have asked many customers, and they all say that roasted whole lamb is delicious once you eat it, but it is greasy the second time."
Zheng Xudong interjected at this time: "Baohaochi's new spicy soup for the National Day was also disliked by customers as greasy, so I have stopped this snack."
Lin Mai said: "It feels greasy because it is made from sheep.
People in Jiangcheng are not used to eating sheep and dislike sheep because they are too fat, so switching to other breeds of sheep solves the problem."
Wang Xiaoli said: "Uncle Ku'erban said the same thing, but he couldn't get the kinds of sheep he mentioned."
"Then use goats."
Wang Xiaoli said: "I have tried using goats, and customers responded well, but goats are also difficult to get, and it is almost impossible to find goat farmers in Henan Province.
Although goats are raised in our province, farmers only raise a few sporadically and cannot guarantee supply."
Zheng Xudong suggested: “We can encourage farmers to raise goats and we can purchase them.
Goats eat grass and are low-cost to raise, so farmers will definitely be willing to raise them.”
Lin Mai flatly rejected it.
She didn't know anything about animal husbandry, but she knew that goats and sheep, despite their small size and docile nature, tasted amazing and needed to eat several kilograms of fodder a day.
If each farmer's household raises more than ten goats, then a small village with more than ten households will have more than a hundred goats, which will consume hundreds of kilograms of grass a day.
Grass doesn't grow as fast as sheep can eat it.
After eating the grass, the sheep will use their horns to dig out the roots of the grass to eat when they are hungry.
This destroys local vegetation and causes soil erosion.
Lin Mai read an article on the Internet in his previous life. The formation of the Loess Plateau was related to local sheep farming, which destroyed vegetation and caused soil erosion.
She will never do anything that affects the ecological environment.
Wang Xiaoli worried: "If farmers are not encouraged to raise goats, then our specialty roasted whole lamb will have to be taken off the menu sooner or later."
"It's not that bad. We can add lettuce to relieve the greasiness."
In this era, lettuce had not yet spread to the inland areas, and almost no people in the inland areas had ever eaten lettuce.
Wang Xiaoli's eyes widened and she asked: "What kind of vegetable is lettuce? How to relieve fatigue?"
Lin Mai gave her and everyone present a popular science: "Lettuce, as the name suggests, is a vegetable that can be eaten raw. It is available in Guangdong and Guangxi, but not in our province.
When eating meat, wrap it in lettuce and eat it to relieve your tiredness."
Everyone nodded in understanding.
Lin Mai turned his head to Zhao Liang: "When I get the lettuce seeds, you notify the village chiefs we hired and ask them to arrange the planting of lettuce."
Zhao Liang nodded and said: "I think we should not only arrange for the village chiefs to grow lettuce, but also expand the greenhouse vegetable planting area.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to ensure a continuous supply of off-season vegetables for our market just by relying on the supply of those ten or so villages."
Lin Mai nodded: "You can handle this matter yourself."
After talking about work matters, everyone thought the meeting was about to break up, but Lin Mai's face sank and he mentioned Wu Sufen's stealing of supplies from the factory.
This matter has long been known to everyone in the factory.
Lin Mai asked everyone seriously: "The guard has discovered Wu Sufen's theft a long time ago, but he never reported it to anyone. He waited until I came back before reporting it to me. Do you know the reason?"
Everyone looked at each other, then shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know the reason.
Lin Mai said: "Because the guard uncle thinks that you and Wu Sufen have a good relationship, and he is afraid of reporting it to you. You will not only protect Wu Sufen, but also give him little shoes."
Many cadres said: "Don't say that we are just casual acquaintances with Wu Suanfen. Even if we really have a good relationship, we will not harm the interests of the factory for her."
Lin Mai pointedly pointed out: "But the guard uncle doesn't know.
So in the future, you should be careful to keep a distance from workers and don’t let others take advantage of you.”
Everyone nodded.
Lin Mai ordered the Human Resources Department to reward the guard uncle with 100 yuan, and he must pay out the reward today.
The HR section chief carefully wrote it down in his notebook.
Lin Mai thought of the kindergarten security guards and Teacher Qiqi who bravely arrested Ma Tao yesterday.
Ask the Human Resources Department to reward the security guard and Teacher Qiqi with three hundred and one hundred respectively. This must be implemented today.
After all the matters were settled, she announced the adjournment of the meeting.
I was going to go to the office to call Ke Ziqing and ask her to help get some lettuce seeds.
She is Cantonese herself and lives in Guangzhou, so it should be no problem to get some lettuce seeds.
As soon as she walked out of the small conference room, Shen Xiaoping reported to her that a comrade from the court wanted to see her.
As Lin Mai walked toward his office, he asked, "Do you know what the comrade from the court wants to do with me?"
"He said he came here because of Tang Shunying's affairs."
Lin Mai was wondering, hadn't Tang Shunying's case been decided? Why were there still comrades from the court looking for her?
She entered the office.
A middle-aged man wearing a court uniform immediately stood up from the sofa and stretched out a hand to her.
He introduced himself: "Hello, Comrade Lin Mai, I am Cheng Bing, Tang Shunying's agent."
Lin Mai shook hands with him and asked him to sit down.
Shen Xiaoping served tea and then left.
Lin Mai smiled and asked: "I heard that Comrade Cheng came to see me about Tang Shunying?"
Cheng Bing nodded: "Yes, Tang Shunying has to compensate you 160,000 yuan for the arson case.
But you also know that her family cannot afford so much money.
She hopes you can give up the claim, do you think that’s okay?”
Lin Mai knew that Tang Shunying could not afford the money to compensate her, so he had no intention of asking her to compensate her.
Anyway, Guan Yonghua’s compensation has already made her a lot of money.
But she didn't intend to let Tang Shunying compensate, and Tang Shunying wanted her to give up the compensation. There were two different things.
The former is voluntary and the latter is forced.
Lin Mai's eyes suddenly turned cold and he asked Cheng Bing: "When you plead for Tang Shunying, do you know what she and her family did to me?"
Cheng Bing smiled and said: "I don't need to know what Tang Shunying's family did to you.
If I only see Tang Shunying setting fire to your clothing factory and wanting to burn you to death, I won't intercede on her behalf.
But I'm here, that's my responsibility, who asked me to be her agent.
You can choose not to agree, so why should you be angry?"
This makes sense, Lin Mai said: "I won't agree."
Cheng Bing nodded: "I will tell my client Tang Shunying."
After seeing off Cheng Bing, Lin Mai called Ke Ziqing and asked her to help get one or two pounds of lettuce seeds to send over.
Ke Ziqing said that it would take a week to mail it, so she might as well go there in person.
Although Lin Mai said he was not in a hurry, Ke Ziqing insisted on her opinion, so Lin Mai had no choice but to obey her.
After ending the call with Ke Ziqing, Lin Mai originally wanted to call Niu Lili to lead a red line between her and Fang Zhuoyue.
But after thinking about it for a while, I gave up.
It's better to go back and take care of such private matters.
