Another day, Director Lu had just arrived at the office and before his buttocks got hot from sitting, the secretary came to report.
"Director, Qin Hao from the Educated Youth Factory is here again. Do you want to send him away?"
Director Lu was so angry that he stopped the secretary: "No, you go and bring someone...please come."
The secretary was a little confused. Didn't Director Lu look down on the educated youth factory in the past? Why did he use the word "please" this time?
Of course, as a secretary, he shouldn't leave questions unasked, but he still knew this.
Not long after, Qin Hao was taken to the factory director's office by his secretary.
The moment Director Lu saw Qin Hao, he almost couldn't hold back his swear words, but he still suppressed his anger and waved his hand at the secretary: "Okay, Director Qin and I have work to discuss, you go down first, and don't come if you have nothing to do.
Excuse me."
The secretary withdrew with a puzzled look on his face.
Qin Hao sat across from Director Lu and said jokingly: "Director Lu, do you like the gift I gave you?"
Director Lu gritted his teeth and waited for Qin Hao: "What exactly do you want!"
"Director Lu, don't get excited. As the saying goes, you can't get to know each other without fighting. We will have plenty of opportunities for cooperation in the future, so why pretend to be confused because we understand?"
Qin Hao smiled like a spring breeze, but Director Lu felt deeply depressed. No one could calm down if someone took advantage of him.
"Our factory's construction schedule is already full, and we don't have time to produce glass bottles for you." Director Lu gritted his teeth.
Qin Hao was not in a hurry when he heard this, and tapped his desk with his fingers: "Director Lu, from the first time we met, I have always been polite to each other, but this does not mean that I have no temper."
"Are you threatening me?" Director Lu stood up and glared at Qin Hao. Qin Hao looked at each other with a sneer: "Otherwise, what do you think?"
"you........"
Qin Hao stood up and gestured to leave, but suddenly stopped: "I heard that Director Lu was also from Baigou Village. A rural boy became the head of the county glass factory in just ten years. It seems that he is in the family of the noble lady.
A lot of effort, right?”
Director Lu's expression suddenly changed, and his aura instantly weakened.
Qin Hao stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered: "Multiple friends, multiple paths, whether they are enemies or friends, it all depends on how Director Lu chooses."
Factory Director Lu slumped down in his chair, and after a long while he said: "I can arrange for workers to work overtime, but the money must not be less."
Qin Hao readily agreed: "No problem."
Watching Qin Hao leave, Director Lu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and waited for a while before calling the workshop director.
"Hey, Lao Li, there is a batch of goods that need to be shipped out. Starting from tomorrow, you will arrange two shifts. Well, it will be unplanned production. Don't worry, the bonus will not be less for you."
A week later, the first batch of glass bottles was delivered. Qin Hao was also very trustworthy, paying the price and delivering the goods.
The next step is filling. An automated filling line is naturally impossible. This thing has to be imported from abroad, and it is expensive. Qin Hao cannot afford it.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Qin Ling asked curiously.
On this day, Qin Hao was playing with a strange-looking thing early in the morning, and many people in the workshop were attracted to it.
Qin Hao did not explain, but asked someone to get a barrel of oil and poured it into the funnel of the new machine.
Then he took out a glass bottle, placed it on a slender tube below, and finally pressed down a rocker on the right side of the new machine.
Everyone saw the light yellow liquid begin to flow into the glass bottle, but it was only half filled the first time. Then Qin Hao pressed the rocker arm again and just filled the glass bottle.
"Hey, this turns out to be a filling machine?"
"Director Qin knows a lot, and this has saved our factory a lot of money."
The educated youth were completely convinced by Qin Hao. From the inside out, there seemed to be nothing Qin Hao couldn't do in this factory.
Qin Hao smiled and scolded: "Okay, stop flattering and bottle it quickly. Whether we can expand production depends on whether this batch of goods sells well."
After hearing this, the educated youths dispersed and began to work.
After filling, sealing, labeling and other processes, 250ML of soybean oil and peanut oil has officially left the factory.
The next step is to sell. Although it is an unplanned production, since the raw materials are purchased from the grain station, you need to register with the industry and commerce when selling, and go through formal channels, otherwise it will be troublesome if you are caught.
Next, Qin Hao started to go through the procedures and channels. Fortunately, commodities such as grain and oil are in short supply this year. As long as they are available, they don't have to worry about selling them. The first batch of 5,000 bottles was directly contracted by the county supply and marketing cooperative.
Of course, it takes three months to settle the payment, which is considered a normal range.
In the blink of an eye, half a year later, the Educated Youth Factory also underwent its first expansion. The number of employees increased from the original 150 to 600. According to the scale of the county's enterprises, it was already considered a large factory.
In the past six months, the sales of Zhiqing brand soybean oil and peanut oil have covered most of the northern Shaanxi Plateau. Even the county's grain station is not enough to supply them with sufficient raw materials, so they can only maintain production by purchasing raw materials from Shaanxi.
At the same time, Qin Hao also developed two new categories, rapeseed oil and sesame oil. Among them, rapeseed oil, which is cheaper than soybean oil, is very popular among the public.
What is more interesting is that since oil extraction produces a large amount of fertilizer, in order to maximize the use of these fertilizers, Qin Hao also built a breeding farm on wasteland ten miles away from the factory.
At the beginning, the scale of the breeding farm was not large, with only about ten pigs raised. As sales got better and better, more and more waste was produced, and the scale of the breeding farm continued to expand.
So far, there are more than 30 pigs and more than 100 chickens and ducks in the farm, which is equivalent to a small pig farm.
The New Year is approaching, and while other factories are still debating whether their workers can have a bite of meat for the New Year's Eve dinner, the Educated Youth Factory has already started discussing how to kill a few big fat pigs.
It takes at least a year for ordinary pigs to be raised until they are ready for slaughter, but the pigs in the Zhiqing Factory eat soybeans and peanut waste mixed with feed, and they gain weight very quickly, weighing more than 200 kilograms in half a year.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Director Qin is back."
"Director Qin."
The crowd who were watching the pig slaughter consciously made way for them. Qin Hao, wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket, smiled at the crowd.
"You guys are really cool in this freezing cold weather. You even came out to watch the pig being slaughtered. Are you still worried that the pork will grow wings and fly?"
"Isn't this a sign of peace of mind?"
The crowd burst into laughter.
Qin Hao sighed secretly in his heart. It's no wonder. In this era where eating a bite of meat can make you happy for a long time, who can resist the temptation of pork.
Soon, the white pig was slaughtered by a skilled butcher. Hot boiling water was poured on the pig, and the butcher used a scraper to scrape off the hair on the pig. His smooth movements attracted praises from many educated youths.
Qin Hao also watched it for a while and found it uninteresting, so he left and went to the kitchen.
The chickens and ducks are being slaughtered in the kitchen. It's New Year's Eve tonight. There are no entertainment projects during the New Year these days, and the educated youth can't go home. Qin Hao didn't take a holiday in advance, so he gathered everyone together and had a good meal.
New Year's Eve dinner.
"Director Qin."
Many educated youths greeted Qin Hao, and they all took the initiative to help in the kitchen. Women these days are so diligent that it makes people cry.
"How about it, are these enough to eat? If not, I will send someone to the breeding farm to catch some and bring them back." Qin Hao patted a young educated youth on the shoulder and said.
Since the Educated Youth Factory can only recruit educated youths, the chefs in the back kitchen are all educated youths. This young chef's ancestor was an imperial chef. Due to his family background, he was sent to northern Shaanxi to become an educated youth.
He originally worked in the workshop, but later he felt that the food was too unpalatable, so he took the initiative to find Qin Hao and took up the responsibility of being a cook.
"Director Qin, just wait and see, I will make sure everyone eats well and is full today!"
Qin Hao smiled appreciatively: "Okay, then I'll see how you perform."
All the way from the kitchen to the auditorium, he heard Xintianyou singing from the background. As soon as Qin Hao heard the voice, he knew it must be Qinling.
It was rare to get together today, and just eating was a bit monotonous, so Qin Hao also arranged a cultural performance. As the women's director, Qin Ling has always been an activist in literature and art, so it was natural to perform on stage.
"Director Qin is here."
Most of the people at the art show were women. When Qin Hao came in, the whole backstage immediately became noisy. It really echoed the saying that one woman can stand up to three ducks.
"Director Qin, does our sister Qin Ling sing well?"
A female educated youth who was relatively close to Qin Ling joked.
The rest of the female educated youths started making noises again when they heard this. The relationship between Qin Hao and Qin Ling was basically a known thing in the factory. After all, with so many pairs of eyes staring at her, it was not as easy to hide as it was in Yangshu Village. Someone would always find out.
Clues.
Qin Ling blushed with embarrassment, but Qin Hao was not afraid of boiling water. For him, this level of teasing would not break his guard at all.
"Okay, you'd better line up for the show, otherwise you'll make a fool of yourself tonight, so don't cry." Qin Hao laughed and scolded.
"Tch, look down on people, we have practiced so well, we will surprise you when the time comes."
"That's right, that's right."
Soon, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, and the educated youths could not wait to come to the cafeteria. The strong smell of meat took away everyone's soul.
Finally, at five o'clock, the meal officially started, and the kitchen was really good. There were three dishes on the table, all in large vegetable pots, a braised pork with potatoes, the potatoes were stewed until they were soft, and the braised pork was obviously fried to a sugar-colored color.
Bright and red, one dish is roasted chicken with chestnuts, and the other dish is winter melon and duck soup.
It was all hard food. Every one of the educated youth’s eyes were green. This was so awesome. Even in the city, they had never eaten such a lavish New Year’s Eve dinner, such a large piece of braised pork, two fingers thick and thin.
Between the two, it's almost blocked.
"Brother Hao, don't you say a few words?" Ning Yu said to Qin Hao.
Qin Hao shook his head: "Let's forget it. We don't want to be bureaucratic. It's most practical for everyone to have good food and drink."
However, Qin Hao thought so, but the educated youth did not let him go. After eating to half full, the educated youth began to drink. Naturally, many people came to toast Qin Hao.
"Director Qin, I toast you with this cup. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have such a good life. From now on, if you just say a word, we will never be ambiguous!"
"That's right, Director Qin, from now on we will fight wherever you point us. If anyone is timid, he will be our grandson!"
Qin Hao drank several drinks in succession. When he saw this posture, he quickly picked up the glass and stood up.
"Brothers and sisters of educated youth, listen to what I have to say."
The originally noisy cafeteria suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Hao.
Qin Hao said loudly: "I took the lead in building the educated youth factory, but the existence of the educated youth factory is the result of the joint efforts of each of us. Our goal is to expand production and help solve the employment problems of more educated youths. At the same time, it is also the result of the joint efforts of each of us.
Do you have the confidence to contribute to the country and help more farmers get out of poverty?"
"have!"
"have!!!"
Looking at these young and energetic faces, Qin Hao also felt infinite pride in his heart. He was doing something that would change the fate of millions of people, and he was not alone. There were countless peers around him who were going forward one after another.
After eating and drinking, the cultural performance officially began in the auditorium.
As soon as the female educated youths rehearsed the model play "Red Lantern Story", there was warm applause.
It's not that the female educated youths performed better than professional actors, it's just that the educated youths haven't seen similar performances for a long time. Even a cookie-cutter model drama is enough to make them burst into tears.
Qinling and the others also put in a lot of effort into this cultural performance. In addition to dramatic performances, there were also poetry recitations, solos, and choruses, and the applause never stopped.
The educated youth present also forgot about the troubles of homesickness and gathered together happily to enjoy the happiest moment of the year.
The last program is Qin Ling’s solo performance Xin Tian You. Qin Ling’s voice is sometimes high-pitched and sometimes gentle, like an albatross sometimes piercing the clouds and sometimes breaking through the sky.
It was not until ten o'clock in the evening that the cultural performance ended, and the educated youth reluctantly returned to their dormitories to rest.
Not long after Qin Hao returned to the dormitory, he heard a knock on the door. Qin Ling opened the door and jumped into his arms.
Qin Hao stretched out his hand, held Qin Ling's ankles, hugged her whole body with force, hooked his back foot, and the door was closed.
........
After a silent night, Qin Ling got up before dawn, lay on Qin Hao's chest and said: "Happy New Year."
Then he left quietly.
During the Chinese New Year, Qin Hao was not idle either. He carried some cigarettes and wine and started giving gifts everywhere.
He was busy until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, when the educated youth factory reopened, and Qin Hao had some free time.
On the first day of work, as soon as Qin Hao arrived at the factory gate, he heard from the guard that a man named Zheng Tong was looking for him.
Qin Hao was stunned for a moment: "Where are the others?"
"It's in the reception room. He came just before dawn." The doorman replied.
With doubts, Qin Hao came to the reception room. When Zheng Tong saw Qin Hao, his face looked a little unnatural.
"Qin, Director Qin."
Qin Hao waved his hand and went straight to the point: "Okay, there is no need for us to do this anymore. What do you want from me?"
Zheng Tong suppressed his blush, then gritted his teeth and said, "I want to join the educated youth factory."
"Oh, give me a reason." Qin Hao did not refuse directly.
Zheng Tong's eyes immediately turned red: "We really can't stand it any longer, so just think of it as me begging you."
Since Zhong Yuemin left, their village has lost a strong labor force. In addition, they had eaten enough rations for five months. Later, the village found an excuse to deduct all the rations. In this way, the food they grew themselves
There was simply not enough to eat, and we had to do heavy work in the fields every day, and our bodies were all exhausted.
"I don't care for idlers here." Seeing Zheng Tong's disheveled face, Qin Hao gasped after saying a few words, knowing that what he said was true.
Zheng Tong immediately patted his chest and said: "Although I am not physically strong, my brain is good. As long as you let me enter the factory, my life will be yours from now on!"
Qin Hao thought for a while and then agreed. Zheng Tong was able to get into college with his own efforts, which showed that his IQ was definitely not low. Seeing that the development of the educated youth factory in the county has encountered a bottleneck, it will definitely reach a bigger place in the future.
When a local branch is opened, it is also time to train a group of managers to share its work.
"Remember what you said today, have you eaten? Let's go to the cafeteria and have some breakfast."
Zheng Tong's eyes widened: "You, you agreed?"
"Are you leaving?"
"Well, Director Qin, can you recruit another person?"
"?"
"Her name is Jiang Biyun..."
Well, this guy is already in this world, and he can still pick up girls, but he is still kind and righteous, much better than that bastard Zhong Yuemin.
