This processing plant was jointly owned by the state and a large collective, but it operated independently and was primarily responsible for its own profits and losses.

"Xiping, I've discussed it with Lao Zhao and the others, and everyone agrees to transfer you to the timber processing plant as the factory manager. What do you think?"

That day, Zheng Xianyong spoke with Sheng Xiping and informed him of the decision made by the venue.

Sheng Xiping was stunned. "Huh? The factory manager? Uncle, I'm only twenty-six. Can I handle this? Will people listen to me?"

This production scheduler only worked there for a little over a year, and now he's changed jobs again? Plant manager at a timber processing plant?

Managing overseeing the entire population and large collectives, totaling about a hundred people? Isn't this taking a bit too big a step?

"Why not? Our forest farm doesn't follow seniority; whoever has the ability gets the job."

Tell me, among all the young people in the forest farm now, who has your abilities?

Don't be modest. Just lead your factory staff well, do the work properly and understand it thoroughly, and earn more money. That's more important than anything else.

Zheng Xianyong laughed when he heard this. In his opinion, there was no one more suitable than Sheng Xiping in the entire forest farm.

After all, those customers were all found by Sheng Xiping. If someone else were the factory manager, they wouldn't have these sales channels.

"Go to work with confidence. If anyone disobeys or dares to cause trouble, I'll deal with them."

"Alright, since the boss trusts me so much, what else can I say? Don't worry, boss, I'll definitely work hard."

Sheng Xiping thought about it and decided that he might as well become the factory director. What difference did it make what he did? The leader had already spoken, and it would seem pretentious to refuse.

And so, at the age of twenty-six, Sheng Xiping became the director of the timber processing plant in Qianchuan Forest Farm.

Sheng Xiping started working as an educated youth in the mountains at the age of seventeen. In nine years, he rose from the team leader to a tractor assistant, production scheduler, and now the factory manager of a processing plant.

This is a leap that many workers will never reach in their entire lives.

He went from being a worker to a cadre in just nine years; it's impossible not to envy him.

When the news spread, those who were on good terms with the Sheng family were all happy for Sheng Xiping.

Of course, there were also some people who didn't get along with Sheng Xiping, and they would gossip behind his back, saying that Sheng Xiping had found a good backer.

If he weren't the son-in-law of the bureau chief, how could he become the factory director at the age of twenty-six?

Sheng Xiping didn't care what others said; he just focused on doing his job well.

With the new processing plant established, there were many things to do with the original sawing workshop, chipping team, and collective operations. Sheng Xiping had to coordinate and arrange everything. He didn't have time to care what others were saying.

The logging season had ended, so the young men at the processing plant went to the mountains to collect fallen trees and loose timber for processing.

There were few young women in the processing plant, mostly women from the previous sawmill.

The women used to work as saw cutters, but now they've been replaced and are doing lighter jobs related to wood processing, such as handling planks and bark.

Hou Yashuang would call every now and then to place an order.

In addition to the previous car pillars, seaweed stakes, and furniture timber, sometimes they also need a batch of linden wood chopping blocks, or red pine and sand pine coffins, or plywood, fiberboard, and so on.

No matter what kind of order is placed on the other side, Sheng Xiping will find a way to process it.

If there is no timber in Qianchuan, we will get some from Shuguang Forest Farm or Shengli Forest Farm. If the forest farms don't have any, we will look for it from the bureau.

In short, Sheng Xiping's main selling point is that as long as the money is right, he can prepare any product.

As a result, the Qianchuan Forestry Farm timber processing plant became famous, and everyone in the entire Forestry Bureau knew about it.

Other forest farms were envious and took the initiative to call Zheng Xianyong, saying they wanted to send people over to learn from his experience.
