Fortunately, the county requires that each department must have on-duty personnel every day during the first month of the lunar year, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

Putting aside other things, just look at her small arms and legs, and the fact that she's not good at scolding people. If she went there today, she would probably come back crying.

Li Xu grinned and said, "Of all the companies in the county, your fertilizer factory is ranked at the top. This should give you a lot of prestige in the factory, right?"

"Yes, but I don't care about it anymore."

Li Xu was stunned. "If you don't value prestige, then what do you value?"

"I'm the first director of the fertilizer plant. Even if I didn't formulate the factory's directives and policies, they were issued through me. My prestige in the factory is already high enough, so a little more or less won't make a difference to me. Right now, what I care more about is whether I can benefit the employees."

After listening to her, everyone in the Li family gave her a thumbs up. Li Ping even said with emotion, "Xiaomei, your realm is really high."

Li Mei shook her head. "It's useless to have a high level of spiritual attainment. The key is to be able to get things done. The fertilizer factory has been established for almost two years. Although the goods are in short supply, we haven't made much money. Take the house construction this time for example. This afternoon, some employees with ordinary family conditions and insufficient housing asked me if the factory could give them some subsidies. To be honest, I want to give them, but I can't.

You don't know how embarrassed I felt when I said "no." On the way back, I was thinking, "The nature of a fertilizer factory is such that it's not going to make a lot of money. Since I can't give employees subsidies, it would be nice to give them some benefits and comfort. But I still haven't come up with a reliable idea."

The fertilizer plant was established to supply local farmers, so the price naturally cannot be set high.

Not to mention that it has been established for almost two years, even if it has been established for almost five years, the fertilizer factory would not be able to save much money.

Li Ju burst out laughing. "Sister, ask my second brother about this. When it comes to making money, who in the family can compare to him?"

Li Xu stretched out his arm and stroked her head, saying unhappily, "Your eldest sister means you don't want to spend money but still want to benefit the employees. How can such a good thing be possible? Your second brother isn't omnipotent. If I could do it... huh? Hey, you know what, I actually came up with an idea, but it won't be effective in the short term."
