Chapter 220: Regarding the localized Rex Rabbit project, let’s vote!
early morning.
The light mist had not yet dissipated, but smoke from the adobe roofs of the Pingcun Brigade was already rising.
In the Su family compound.
Su Wenchen yawned and pushed his bicycle out of the house.
"You're not going home to eat this morning!" Father Su said with some disappointment as he watched Su Wenchen push the cart out.
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Now I don't light the stove, and I don't like to move in the morning."
Then he looked at Su's father, who had already been sitting in the yard, stretching his body and lighting a cigarette, and joked directly.
"Dad, you just finished your activities this morning and haven't even eaten yet, so you light this up right away. Aren't you afraid of getting lung disease?"
Father Su glanced at Su Wenchen unhappily.
"You know shit, I just smoked one before dinner, the smoke is so strong."
Before Su Wenchen could say anything, his mother's roar was heard in the room.
"You old man, you have so many crooked ideas. You're sitting in the yard smoking a cigarette so early in the morning and you think you're right."
"There's no water in the vat. Quickly pump a bucket of water in, or we won't be able to make porridge."
Hearing that it was Su's mother's roar, Su's father had no choice but to stand up and slowly walk towards the pressurized water well in the yard that was not allowed to be installed in the first place.
But he was still muttering to himself.
"You old woman, you always boss me around, and you're drinking porridge so early in the morning. How can you have the energy to work if you don't eat something?"
Su's mother walked out of the yard and said to Su Wenchen who was pushing the cart.
"Youngest, do you want to eat at home?"
Su Wenchen immediately waved his hand.
"Goodbye, Mom. I'm going to the cafeteria to eat. But our family is not in bad condition now, so there is no need to drink corn porridge every day. At least add some steamed bread. Look, my father is so hungry that he comes to me for a meal."
Su's mother glanced unhappily at Su's father who was pressing water.
"What do you know? Your father is hungry. He's just greedy. He just wants to eat white noodles and rice porridge."
He turned around and said to Su's father in the distance.
"Every day you're like a little kid, going to whichever place has delicious food. It seems you can't move anymore."
But Su's father disagreed.
"It's only natural for me to eat at my son's house. I won't go to anyone else's house. Besides, if I don't eat a few bites now, what will I eat when I can't move?"
Seeing this, Su Wenchen said directly.
"Then Mom will wait for me to come back in the evening and bring you dozens of kilograms of white flour."
Su's mother immediately waved her hand.
"You stupid kid, you just spend money recklessly. You even bought dozens of kilograms of flour. What are we going to eat? Keep it for yourself!"
Father Su also followed suit.
"There's no need to give me food. Your mother and I are able to work hard now, so we still have plenty of work points. Besides, your eldest brother isn't that well off right now."
"Keep it for yourself! I'll just take a couple of bites if I'm hungry."
Su Wenchen also knew what his father was worried about.
After all, he is not married and has no children. In addition, he has a salary, various bill subsidies from the farm, and canteen meal ticket subsidies.
Actually, it doesn’t cost much now.
Even after the farm became wealthy the following year, Su Wenchen asked Miao Yuan to recruit a skilled chef from the city.
They didn't have a separate small canteen, and cooked directly in the big canteen. Although the taste was not as good as the stir-fried dishes in small pots, they had the money to spend on the ingredients, so there was actually not much difference.
So since Jiang Li left, he rarely fired a shot alone.
But his eldest brother and second brother's families now have one more mouth to feed, and even the eldest sister-in-law is still thinking about having another one.
If Su Wenchen provides food, the other two families will naturally have to follow suit, and the expenses will naturally increase. Although the two families are better off than the villagers, they are still no match for Su Wenchen.
So when he saw Su's father refuse, he didn't say anything else.
"Okay, wait until I make something delicious and then I'll call you."
Father Su immediately nodded with a relaxed look on his face.
"Okay, since you're going to the cafeteria to eat, just go!"
"Don't wait any longer, there will be no food."
Su Wenchen nodded when he heard this.
I opened the gate outside the yard and just moved the bicycle over the threshold.
A timid voice came from the corner of the side wall.
"Hello, Director Su!"
Su Wenchen was startled and turned around immediately.
A young girl, who looked quite young, was standing by the wall of their house, trembling slightly.
Judging from the white frost between the other person's eyebrows, he had obviously been there for quite a while.
Su Wenchen frowned slightly. Judging from the voice, the other party should be the person from last night.
However, because it was dark yesterday, Su Wenchen didn't see clearly, but now it seems that the other person should not be very old.
He even thought that the other person was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, and looked quite handsome.
He asked directly and tentatively.
"Are you an educated youth from the brigade? What do you want to talk to me about?"
Hearing Su Wenchen's words, the other party carefully took the two boiled eggs in his palm and handed them to Su Wenchen.
"Director Su, I just want to ask if you guys are still hiring?"
Su Wenchen looked at the other person seriously and refused the egg handed to him.
"Are you a sent-down youth? Why did you come down here at such a young age?"
After hearing Su Wenchen's words, the other party immediately explained.
"I'm fourteen, not fifteen. I came here of my own accord."
As if he heard some talking outside, Su's father also walked out of the yard.
After seeing Su Wenchen and the little girl, Su's father sighed.
"Girl, it's no use for you to come to the youngest brother. It's not that easy to find a job!"
"Just stay in the brigade peacefully!"
After hearing what Su's father said, the other party shook his head.
"Thank you, Captain, but if I can't make any money, she will really sell my sister out."
"Director Su, are you really not hiring anymore? I can endure hardship, as long as I can earn a salary."
After hearing this, Father Su didn't say anything else, because enduring hardship is really not a special ability in the countryside.
If you can make money by working hard, then rural areas would have been the richest areas long ago.
After hearing this, Su Wenchen roughly understood that the other party was short of money and wanted to find a job to earn money.
However, this kind of thing is still a bit tricky for Su Wenchen. With his current position, it is indeed possible to hire an ordinary worker, especially since the rabbit house is now going to expand.
But what he was afraid of was that if it got on his hands, he wouldn't be able to get it off.
After all, many times, it starts with thanks, but as thanks go on, the feeling can easily deteriorate.
Besides, it was hard for him to tell whether what the other party said was true or false.
So after a moment of silence, Su Wenchen spoke directly to the other party.
"We're not hiring at the farm right now, but the commune might be hiring. You can go and ask the deputy director in charge of your group of educated youth."
"She's usually responsible for this kind of thing."
Su Wenchen finally gave this kind-hearted opportunity to Jiang Li. After all, the tanning workshop behind the commune and the sewing workshop they planned to set up later were both recruiting workers, so there shouldn't be any big problems.
Moreover, even if there are difficulties with the local educated youth, it should be the commune that comes forward to help resolve them.
Hearing Su Wenchen say this.
The little girl's eyes darkened, but then she showed a happy expression.
"Director Su, are you talking about Director Jiang from the commune?"
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Well, but even if they are recruiting, it's an open selection, so don't get your hopes too high."
The other party shook his head.
"I understand. I will work hard. Thank you, Director Su, for telling me this news."
"Captain, can I take a day off today?"
Father Su waved his hand.
"Please ask for leave and follow your captain. I don't care about these things!"
"But you should find out everything clearly and don't spread rumors outside, especially at the educated youth center. If you prepare more, your chances of being selected will be higher."
The other party nodded seriously.
"Yes, Captain, thank you for your reminder, and Director Su, I'll be leaving first."
As he said this, he was about to turn around and leave, but after taking a few steps, he immediately ran back and put one egg in each of Su Wenchen and Su's father's pockets.
"Director Su, I'm not asking for information in vain. Thank you."
After saying that, he ran away immediately.
Su Wenchen took out the egg from his pocket, but there was no chance of returning it to the other party.
Thinking of Su's father's last instructions to the other party, Su Wenchen asked Su's father curiously.
"Dad, it seems like you have a good impression of this girl. You even specifically told her not to say anything nonsense."
"This is not the style of a captain like you who treats everyone equally."
Father Su said unhappily.
"I'm not trying to be fair. I didn't know the commune was hiring. What does the news you told me have to do with me?"
He said with a sigh.
"This little girl is the youngest among this group of educated youth. To be precise, she is only fourteen years old, still a half-grown child. She was not originally assigned to our team."
"It was the County Educated Youth Office. Seeing that he was too young, they finally decided to move him to our village."
"After all, we have collective industry. Even if this girl is no longer capable, our team can still support one more person."
"But I didn't expect that this girl is quite capable and smart. If it weren't for her family reasons, she would probably marry into a good family."
"Now!" Father Su shook his head and didn't continue.
Su Wenchen was also a little confused.
"I heard her say earlier that her mother was going to sell her sister? Didn't she think of reporting it to the police?"
Seeing Su Wenchen's doubts, Su's father sneered.
"This kind of thing is not that easy."
"Even if you report it to the police, unless they catch the traffickers and identify her, her mother will just say she's lost. What can you do?"
Su Wenchen frowned.
"The other party's grandparents don't care at all!"
Father Su looked at the smoke rising from every household in the village in the distance.
"You can tell from her name, Xiao Pan'er, that she's probably no different from us down there. She only wants a son, so how could she care about her granddaughter?"
"If there are no relatives willing to take over, what can the police do? They can only take the child back home and raise him themselves! Even if they know that the mother is unreliable, they can only let her mother take care of her."
"So for this little girl, going to the countryside might not be a bad thing."
"And this little girl is quite clever. She first made a big fuss about it, and then asked the Women's Federation at the factory where her stepfather works to keep an eye on her sister."
"She also agreed with her mother that once she saves enough money, she will ask her mother to send her sister over."
"And what do you think it means that she stood at the door so early but didn't knock? And she even told you this. What do you think she's planning?"
Su Wenchen raised his eyebrows.
"So this is to gain my sympathy?"
"Dad, did you know this a long time ago? Then why did you help her earlier?"
Father Su said unhappily.
"Although she used some tricks, she didn't lie. I've read her file."
"There's also a letter in there from the Jinling Youth League Office to our Youth League Office, asking us to do our best to take care of them."
"Plus, she didn't jump on you last night, so I have a better impression of her."
"Smart, thoughtful, but not always relying on others."
"She's quite a rare little girl. After all, who in this world can be more reliable than me?"
"Okay, go to work! But you were right not to recruit her into your field."
"After all, who can tell what people's hearts are like?"
As he said this, he took out the still warm egg from his pocket.
"Do you want to eat that egg? If not, give it to me. Your mom is getting more stingy the better off she is now."
"You couldn't even bear to give me an egg to eat."
Su Wenchen rolled his eyes.
"Captain, you are openly soliciting bribes!"
But he still handed over the egg in his pocket.
After taking it, Father Su waved his hand.
"I'm not asking for a bribe. Those eggs were given to you to get information. What does it have to do with me?"
"It's you who asked for it!"
"Anyway, the eggs are a gift from you to me, they have nothing to do with me."
"Besides, the commune is recruiting people, and I have no control over it."
After saying that, he went straight into the house with his hands behind his back.
Su Wenchen looked at the path in the distance leading to the educated youth point, was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said.
"Forget it, let Ali decide for herself!"
"After all, how to employ people is a problem she will have to face sooner or later."
When we arrived at the living area of the farm, we saw employees hurriedly walking into the canteen with lunch boxes in their hands.
It seems like he is afraid of not being able to eat if he is late.
Su Wenchen parked his bicycle and took a few steps towards the cafeteria entrance when Miao Yuan and a young man happened to walk over from the staff quarters behind.
After seeing Su Wenchen, he immediately greeted him.
"director!"
"Hello, Director!"
Su Wenchen looked at Miao Yuan and his son coming over and said in surprise.
"Why are you and your son eating in the cafeteria? I remember you always eat at home, right?"
Miao Yuan said with a smile after opening the door for Su Wenchen.
"I've arranged for his mother to stay at her parents' house for a few days, so she can come and eat in the cafeteria!"
"Director, this chef I transferred here is quite good, isn't he? I tell you, his cold dishes are truly amazing."
"Before Jianguo, he was an apprentice at a large restaurant in the city, specializing in cold dishes. After the joint venture, he worked at the state-owned restaurant in the East District for many years. If his granddaughter hadn't happened to be an employee of our farm, even if the East District State-owned Restaurant let her go, I might not have been able to transfer her here."
Su Wenchen walked in and nodded.
“The craftsmanship is really good.”
Then he pointed to a long line of employees queuing for meals.
"To tell whether the cooking is good or not, you can tell by looking at the people who come to eat there."
At this time, in the direction of Su Wenchen's finger, canteen staff wearing sleeves were busy filling lunch boxes handed to them through the window.
The hot steam from the cornmeal porridge hit the glass window, condensed into boiled water droplets and spread down the glass. From time to time, the surrounding area could be heard, and some employees shouted words like "Give me more!"
Hearing Su Wenchen say this, Miao Yuan's face also showed joy. After all, the canteen is also one of the main indicators of logistics.
But he still said it to Su Wenchen with some distress.
"Director, this chef's cooking skills are good, but they also have some flaws. This canteen's expenses have increased significantly."
"Our meal ticket subsidies used to be sufficient, but now they are not enough. Many people have complained that they don't have enough meal tickets and hope that we can increase the number of meal tickets."
Su Wenchen shook his head.
"It's fine to increase it, but if there aren't enough meal tickets, you can let the employees buy them themselves."
"Your logistics department just needs to recover the costs appropriately."
As they were talking, the two of them went to the lunch box washing sink in the cafeteria to wash their hands, and then they both took their lunch boxes and prepared to line up for food.
Hearing Su Wenchen say this, Miao Yuan nodded.
"This is the only way to do it, otherwise the cafeteria will always be overspent."
Soon it was Su Wenchen's turn in line, and this window happened to be where his sister-in-law Li Xiaohe was getting her meal.
The other party took a large iron spoon and knocked on the edge of the large aluminum basin.
"Next!"
After Su Wenchen handed the lunch box over, the other party scooped a spoonful directly. The next moment, after seeing that it was Su Wenchen, he immediately scooped another half spoonful.
Seeing this, Su Wenchen said directly.
"Okay, okay, sister-in-law, don't fill yourself up too much. You can't drink it if it's too much!"
Li Xiaohe handed it over without caring.
"Is there anything I can't drink?"
Su Wenchen carried a full lunch box of cornmeal porridge to the serving window nearby.
Hand over your lunch box lid.
After the other party saw Su Wenchen.
I just scooped a full spoonful of the cold dish to go with the porridge. If the lunch box lid wasn't so big, I guess the other party would have added another spoonful.
Finally, a golden yellow cornmeal steamed bread is placed on top.
Su Wenchen looked at the full lunch box and could only carry it to the other side to pay for the meal ticket, feeling both amused and helpless.
And you have to walk very carefully, because if you move a little too much, it will spill.
I found a bench and sat down.
After a while, Miao Yuan also came over with a lunch box. Su Wenchen looked at the other person and found that there was obviously less of him than himself.
Finally, Comrade Xiao Miao came over with a lunch box, and there were even fewer people than Miao Yuan.
Obviously, even though Su Wenchen said there was no need to fight too much.
However, the employees who serve meals will still involuntarily give more to the leading cadres.
Su Wenchen shook his head.
Class is indeed everywhere, and no matter how much we emphasize it, we cannot eliminate it.
But he is not a saint, so naturally he will not always emphasize fairness.
After seeing his son sit down, Miao Yuan also said to Su Wenchen.
"Director, how do you plan to arrange Xiao Miao's work today?"
"Should we let him go to the mowing team first?"
Obviously, he came to the cafeteria today not because his wife went back to her parents' home or because he was greedy.
Otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence that Su Wenchen had just parked his bicycle and the other party happened to turn around and bump into him.
Su Wenchen knew what Miao Yuan meant. Although he liked to promise people something, he had never meant to go back on his word.
"Let him follow me during this time!"
"I'm currently conducting experiments on various feed cultivation methods for Rex rabbits, so I'll have him help me out!"
"Making some experimental records or something."
"By the way, your logistics department is purchasing a separate batch of wire cages. I'll number them so I can observe and compare the effects of various experiments."
When Miao Yuan heard this, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.
"Director, there's no need to purchase more. I anticipated that we would expand the rabbit hutch in the future and would need transportation, so I purchased over a hundred extra wire cages."
Su Wenchen nodded.
"That's fine. Just have someone send a dozen of them to the rabbit hutch."
After breakfast, Su Wenchen came to the field.
After Zheng Xianghong arrived, a morning meeting is now required almost every morning.
Su Wenchen walked into the meeting room with the documents.
Suddenly, everyone who was sitting stood up.
"director!"
Su Wenchen pressed his hand.
"Sit, sit, sit!"
After sitting down in the most central position, Su Wenchen coughed lightly.
"Well, at this morning meeting, I'm mainly going to talk about the arrangements for the rabbit hutch back there."
"I decided to set up a new localized Rex Rabbit project, with the goal of breeding our own localized Rex Rabbit breed."
“What do you all think?”
Hearing Su Wenchen's words, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
Even Miao Yuan was a little surprised, because although Su Wenchen said he wanted to conduct an experiment, he thought it was an ordinary experiment.
But I didn't expect that we would have to breed our own native Rex rabbits. This thing is just like white pigs, it's not that simple.
Moreover, this thing cannot influence too many people like a pig. What’s the point of breeding it?
Isn't it the same as the Rex rabbits we raise now?
Why spend so much energy on it?
Just for a name?
Since Su Wenchen never mentioned foreign exchange in person, this rabbit house was developed as a side business from the very beginning.
So most people don’t know what Su Wenchen is thinking.
They looked at each other and said nothing!
They say they are asking for everyone's opinions, but if you raise objections at this time, wouldn't that just be asking for trouble and making yourself uncomfortable?
Then everyone looked at Zhang Zhenhua and Zheng Xianghong.
As for Han Yang, no one thought he would dare to stand up and sing a different tune.
Zhang Zhenhua saw that his colleagues were all looking at him and Zheng Xianghong.
Although he was very much against the idea of having his own Rex rabbit, he needed Su Wenchen's support now and could not directly oppose it, so he spoke directly to Zheng Xianghong.
"What does Instructor Zheng think?"
After hearing what Zhang Zhenhua said, Zheng Xianghong nodded directly.
"I think the director's suggestion is very good. We should cultivate our own local varieties."
"Just like our industrial machine tools, although they were all imported from abroad, our aquaculture industry should also be like the machinery industry. After learning other people's technology, we should also develop our own aquaculture varieties."
"Only when we have complete control over the technology in our own hands can we avoid being restricted by others."
Although Zheng Xianghong also felt that Su Wenchen seemed to be bored to death, she really hoped that Su Wenchen would plunge into this bottomless pit.
After all, she had studied in an agricultural technical school for two years. Although she didn't focus on learning this, she still knew a little about the hybridization and breeding of various livestock and poultry breeds.
It is extremely difficult to crossbreed two different breeds of animals to produce a completely new, flawless breed.
As for the pig breeding experimental farms in various places, with so many people working on improving and breeding for so many years, isn't the progress still slow?
Therefore, she strongly supports Su Wenchen's proposal, which has basically no results.
It would be best if the other party would fight this kind of thing to the end for the rest of his life.
Because she didn't take Zhang Zhenhua seriously at all.
On the other side, Zhang Zhenhua felt a little uncomfortable after listening to Zheng Xianghong's words.
This made it impossible for him to oppose or support it.
As for what Zheng Xianghong said, in his opinion it was pure nonsense. How could machine tools be the same as animal husbandry?
That thing can't produce offspring even if you buy it.
However, this type of Rex rabbit can give birth to cubs at will, and no one can restrict it.
That's why he didn't want Su Wenchen to focus his energy on such meaningless things.
Not to mention the waste of financial and material resources, what's the point even if it is developed?
At most, it just brings a little more fame, after all, rabbits are not the main livestock there.
He really feels a bit disappointed with you. You have such great talent, why do you have to stick to such meaningless things?
Su Wenchen looked at Zheng Xianghong and found that she was the first one to agree. He immediately knew what she was thinking.
After all, in the eyes of the other party, this is just an ordinary rabbit, and there is no point in creating your own breed.
In fact, the other party is right to think so. Ordinary breeds are really meaningless. After all, their country is not without rabbits.
It has to be a new breed of Rex rabbit that can produce high-quality leather, and it has to be a breed that can bring in foreign exchange and value to be meaningful.
As long as the leather is of high quality, whether they sell high-quality leather to other countries or others introduce new varieties to their country out of envy, the other party will have to pay the same price.
This is also what Su Wenchen hopes for. After all, the Rex Rabbit he leads can bring more benefits to the country.
He will naturally gain more in other aspects.
Connections, background, support, everything will help him progress faster.
Of course, all this is because he has a golden finger, otherwise he would definitely not do this.
So Zhang Zhenhua couldn't understand that he knew it.
So Su Wenchen just followed the procedure.
"No objections? Fine. I declare the localized Rex Rabbit project at Blue Water Farm officially launched."
"I'll personally preside over it, and the people from the rabbit house will assist."
"About the allocation of 10,000 yuan in project funds from the field!"
"Let's vote!"
After saying that, Su Wenchen immediately raised his right hand, and Han Yang followed suit after seeing it.
Seeing this, Zheng Xianghong immediately raised his right hand.
When the others saw that three of the four main leaders agreed, they naturally raised their hands to show their approval.
In the end, even Zhang Zhenhua could only raise his hand to agree when he saw that everyone else agreed.
After all, he still needs Su Wenchen's support. Since he can't oppose it, there is no point in offending Su Wenchen.
Besides, ten thousand yuan is not a big problem in the current situation.
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Alright then. The vote passed unanimously. The field office will go back and organize the meeting minutes for the records."
After all, Su Wenchen plans to exhibit this kind of otter rabbit at the Canton Fair, so he will probably want to see these things at that time.
Because at this time, no matter what is to be exported, it must be carefully investigated.
Then Su Wenchen stood up.
"Do you have anything else to do? If not, then we can adjourn!"
The others said no, and then walked out of the meeting room with different thoughts.
