Chapter 130 This is the only chance a year to make a killing, we must seize it!
After Su Wenchen finished speaking, Miao Yuan immediately agreed.
But then a smile appeared on his face, he rubbed his hands, and looked at Su Wenchen expectantly.
"Hey, Director, I'm on an outbound assignment, right? What's the standard for the travel allowance for our chicken farm?"
"You can't let me pay for my own transportation, food and lodging!"
"The round trip fare is two dollars! If you add in food and lodging, it will be at least three to five dollars a day. My salary is not enough to cover this!"
Su Wenchen gave Miao Yuan an unpleasant look.
"Am I such a stingy person? What is the standard of travel allowance in Shiquan?"
Hearing Su Wenchen's words, Miao Yuan sighed.
"The standards there were set well before, but later on, the chicken farm's income was not good, so they set it very low. So when they went to other provinces to transfer chicks, no one was willing to go, and in the end, I was the one who was specifically chosen."
"Now, if you go to the city to do business and come back on the same day, you will be reimbursed for the car fare and one kilogram of food coupons, but you won't get a dime for anything else, so we have to pay for food to do business."
"If you want to stay at a hotel, you will be subsidized three yuan a day. If you are staying within the province, you will be subsidized five yuan a day. If you are staying outside the province, you will be subsidized eight yuan a day."
Su Wenchen then turned and looked at Feng Guoliang.
"Old Feng, what about the standards of your previous forest farm?"
Feng Guoliang thought about it.
"Our forest farm may be relatively far from the city, so the fare is a bit higher. Generally, the lowest fare to the city is five yuan a day, and to other cities it is usually eight to twelve yuan.
"But they don't send people to other cities very often. Usually, they send people to the Northeast region. There are many forest farms there, and the machines are advanced, so they often send people to the forest farms there to learn. When I saw other people's accounts payable, they gave them 20 yuan a day for food and lodging, plus mountain area subsidies!"
Su Wenchen nodded.
There is a reason why the subsidies given by the forest farm are high. After all, who has a forest farm in the city? They must be in mountainous areas and forest areas.
That’s why the subsidy will be higher.
However, Su Wenchen thought about it and decided to set the standard a little higher.
What if I have to go out to do things in the future?
"Okay, we can't be so stingy with Shiquan. We have to pay for our meals when we go out to do business."
"So if you want to stay in the city, it will be five yuan a day, and in the province it will be eight yuan a day."
"If you want to go out of the province, the standard varies from 10 to 20 yuan, depending on how difficult the place you are going to is."
"But we are a chicken farm after all, and we generally don't send people to remote mountainous areas or border areas."
When Miao Yuan heard the standards set by Su Wenchen, he found that they were actually similar to those at the forest farm.
His expression suddenly brightened.
"Director, you are really generous. Unlike Director Song, you are so stingy when asking people to do things for you."
After all, for him, the subsidy is five yuan a day, and the round-trip fare is two yuan. If he doesn't go to a state-owned restaurant and order some hearty dishes, he won't be able to finish the meal with even one yuan.
For accommodation, you can just stay at your relatives' house for two days, which can save you at least three dollars a day.
If he is assigned abroad for a month, it can be regarded as an extra month's salary for him.
Su Wenchen glanced at Miao Yuan unhappily.
"Lao Miao, the farm gave you a subsidy to do some work. Don't just hang around out there."
Miao Yuan patted his chest.
"Director, don't worry. I will definitely urge the Municipal Engineering Institute to provide them with the necessary materials. I will also pay attention to the thermal insulation materials."
"We ensure that the chickens can be moved from the temporary chicken coop to the formal chicken coop before winter."
"The first batch of eggs will definitely be laid before the New Year."
As he spoke, a look of longing appeared on his face.
"In previous years, when winter came, the egg production of the hens in Shiquan would basically drop significantly. However, during the Chinese New Year, eggs are the most scarce. Otherwise, I would not have gone around looking for insulation materials."
"If our insulated chicken house is built and eggs can be harvested before the New Year, I estimate that there will be buyers waiting at the door of our chicken farm every night."
When Su Wenchen heard this, he smiled and shook his head.
"Is it that serious? You even came here overnight to wait."
When Miao Yuan heard this, he started to explain directly.
"Director, you don't know that for most factories in the city, the logistics department loses a pound of hair every year when distributing New Year's goods."
"We even have to start contacting a lot of them now. If it's a city textile factory, it's not bad. At most, we can send out a few feet of cloth during the New Year. It's not too embarrassing."
"But factories like fertilizer plants, agricultural machinery plants, and forestry farms can't just give each person two bags of fertilizer, a tractor, or two pieces of wood!"
Just at this moment, Feng Guoliang next to him interjected at the right time.
"You know what, the logistics department didn't get any supplies from our forest farm two years ago, but they actually gave each worker in our forest farm a bench."
"My goodness, back then, the workers in our forest farm were too embarrassed to mention that they were from the forest farm when they went out to visit other people."
When Su Wenchen heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
The logistics department of the forest farm is indeed full of talents, and each person is given a bench.
It is no wonder that the workers in the forest farm are too embarrassed to go out and speak, because according to Su Wenchen's understanding, during this period, New Year's goods are basically mainly food, supplemented by daily necessities.
Moreover, what kind of New Year goods the factory usually distributes during the Chinese New Year not only represents the face of the workers, but also represents the face of the factory.
Because the purchase of New Year goods during this period is unplanned, what is generally competed is the connections and resource exchange capabilities of each factory.
If the products in the factory are good and in short supply, then naturally the factory's connections will not be too bad, and it is impossible for the factory to be unable to exchange products and give New Year's goods to the workers.
Only those factories whose products are not wanted by anyone or whose products are not high in priority may not be able to exchange products.
However, for a factory to only produce a bench is indeed a bit shabby.
Miao Yuan was also a little surprised when he heard this.
"Then the conditions at your forest farm are really bad. At least go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy a few kilograms of sugar to make do!"
Then he explained to Su Wenchen.
"Director, to be honest, there are so many factories in our city. The workers in many factories are relatives. They visit each other during the Chinese New Year. Through these visits, we know exactly what each factory distributes during the Chinese New Year and whether the distributed items are good or bad."
"Not only do relatives compete with each other to gain face, but even factories compete with each other."
"If you just mess around, not only will you be scolded by the factory workers, but many people will also think that this factory is not well run."
"So many factories in the city will give out enough goods even if they have to borrow money. Otherwise, if the leaders hear about it, they will think that they are incompetent and can't even afford to give out some New Year's goods."
"That's why I said it's good enough to have buyers waiting overnight. Just like the leaders of the meat processing factory, they basically don't dare to leave the factory before the New Year every year."
"If you go out, you will be blocked."
Su Wenchen touched his chin.
"So the more eggs we can get before the New Year, the better. We must seize the opportunity."
"This is the only chance to make money once a year, so we have to seize it. If the New Year is over, even if eggs are not hard to sell, there will be no such good opportunity to exchange resources as now."
Su Wenchen feels that although money is important in this era, many things cannot be bought directly with money.
After all, there is a shortage of everything all over the country, so why should others give it to you first?
This sets up a lot of invisible barriers.
But at this time, if you have resources that others urgently need, then this threshold will disappear.
It's the same for him. If a small factory comes to purchase during the Chinese New Year, the other party may not have the resources he needs.
Naturally, he wouldn't give in easily.
Don’t say that we all belong to the country and need to be taken care of. For Su Wenchen, he is the director of the Blue Water Chicken Farm.
Then you must give priority to the interests of your own chicken farm.
They all come to buy eggs. If he can exchange eggs for canned goods, he will not consider exchanging benches. Even if he exchanges more benches, it will be meaningless to their chicken farm.
Miao Yuan naturally understood what Su Wenchen meant.
"Don't worry, Director. I will definitely find a way to get the Municipal Engineering Institute to plan for us first."
"Let's have our official chicken house completed before winter, so that after winter, we can still maintain the same production as your brigade's chicken farm now."
"Then we can negotiate terms with other factories."
After all, Miao Yuan was in charge of logistics, and he was the one who had to purchase the New Year’s goods for the chicken farm every year.
So he knew very well how expensive eggs were before the Chinese New Year.
At this time of winter, eggs, like vegetables, are quite rare.
In previous years, although the number of eggs produced at their Shiquan Chicken Farm was low in winter, they could still exchange them for a lot of good things as New Year's goods.
"By the way, Director, I have to take care of the city, so I'll leave the logistics of our chicken farm to you. Actually, there's not much else to do, the main thing is to solve the food problem for the members!"
When Su Wenchen heard it, he thought it was a simple idea and agreed immediately.
"Okay, don't worry about this for now, I'll take care of it. The most important thing is to officially complete the chicken coop."
After all, it's just a food issue, and his sister-in-law can basically take care of it. Even if she is too busy, she can just ask a few aunts to come and help.
Miao Yuan looked at Su Wenchen and agreed.
He finished off the remaining paste in the bowl with one last sip and wiped his mouth with his hand.
"Okay then, I'll leave this to you, Director. I'll be leaving now, so wait for my good news!"
Su Wenchen showed a hint of surprise.
"So early? The county bus is still early!"
Miao Yuan waved his hand.
"I'm not that anxious, but the bullock cart is!"
"The oxcart from Shuanggou Brigade only comes once a week. I don't want to walk to the county. How about you give me a ride?"
Su Wenchen gave the other person an unpleasant look.
"Forget it, you should just go take a bullock cart!"
"Although this bullock cart is slow, it is leisurely and is actually more comfortable to ride than this big truck. This big truck can kill people every day on this broken road."
Miao Yuan rolled his eyes.
"It's comfortable, but too slow. If we didn't have this big cart, we wouldn't be able to build a chicken coop with insulation before the New Year, let alone a temporary chicken coop. After all, it would take several months just to pull bricks from the brick factory with this ox cart."
After saying that, he stood up and patted his butt.
"Manager, I'm leaving now. By the way, please arrange for my little brat to do anything. You can order him to do any hard work!"
Su Wenchen was a little surprised to hear this.
"You're not taking it with you?"
After all, Su Wenchen thought that there would be subsidies for overseas assignments, so taking him along would be equivalent to an extra subsidy for their family.
Su Wenchen was somewhat surprised that the other party had no intention of taking advantage of the situation.
Miao Yuan shook his head.
"I would even think that a young boy who knows nothing is a burden even if he has to carry my bag for me."
"If I take him out, wouldn't that be a way to get some benefits?"
"He's here to work, not to take advantage, so let him help out here!"
"Just point out the dirty and hard work to him."
"If he feels tired, just wait and see how I'll deal with him when I get back!"
Feng Guoliang on the other side also spoke at the right time.
"Captain, I'm the same here, just tell me what you have to say."
"But don't worry about our reputation first."
Obviously, both of them understood that Su Wenchen had the final say in the chicken farm.
Work beside him.
Even if you feel a little tired temporarily, your boss will easily remember it.
Once there is an opportunity for promotion in the future.
People who are remembered by their leaders will naturally have an easier time getting ahead.
After all, not everyone has the ability to achieve results that will impress their leaders.
When most of the people are ordinary people, it is very important for the leader to remember whose name.
After hearing this, Su Wenchen understood what they meant.
"Don't worry, I won't care about your face. I will arrange it directly if there is anything."
"Well, one of you should follow Lao Feng first!"
"In the next two days, we will work with the members to approve temporary houses. People are fine, but food cannot be left outside forever."
"And Lao Feng, I noticed that you left your account books out in the open air. It would be troublesome if it rained."
"I will lead some members to build a shed on the cement side first. Now that the basic work is done, we can talk about building a chicken coop."
It is a great hope for Su Wenchen that it doesn’t rain today. If the cement he delivered gets wet in the rain, he would be in real trouble.
