Chapter 261 Director, this headquarters is so grand!
At the first farm, the first batch of grain was distributed to the members.
The entire Huanglou Commune seemed to be activated again and became lively again.
But it is no longer called Huanglou Commune.
It is the headquarters of a branch of Lanshui Farm.
In fact, the layout of the commune’s buildings and other aspects have not changed, and many of the commune’s service departments have not changed either.
It was just that the original commune supply and marketing cooperative was merged into the service department and became a farm service cooperative, but it was previously under the dual leadership of the superior supply and marketing department and the commune.
Now it is under the dual leadership of the farm and the higher-level supply and marketing department.
Early in the morning.
The service center was already packed with people as soon as it opened.
The salesperson was also trying hard to explain one by one.
"Now, when purchasing agricultural tools, we can go through the farm's centralized purchase order. Your production team doesn't have to come here individually to exchange for new tools."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was immediately drowned out by a barrage of questions.
far away.
After Su Wenchen, Hou Guozhong, Yang Zhenye and others saw this lively scene.
Su Wenchen immediately smiled and said to Yang Zhenye.
“It seems like everyone’s enthusiasm is still very high!”
"They've all come here early in the morning to exchange for farm tools!"
Hearing Su Wenchen's words, Yang Zhenye immediately responded with a smile.
"Director, these members are willing to pay for new farm tools themselves, which shows everyone's expectations for our new policy."
"After all, everyone knows that a good farm tool can save a lot of effort and allow you to do more work."
"In the past, everyone was basically assigned the same work points. For these members, the old farm tools in the production team were just enough to make do, so naturally, their enthusiasm was low."
"But things are different now. The more you work, the more work points you earn. As a result, everyone wants a good farm tool. Naturally, many people don't like the junky tools from the production team."
Su Wenchen nodded.
"It's a good thing these members are so motivated, but the farm doesn't need them to bring their own farm tools. Isn't there a small farm tool factory in the county?"
"Just calculate the shortage of farm tools in the farm and purchase them from the farm tool factory. We can't transfer resources from the main farm in large quantities, but transferring hundreds of thousands of dollars shouldn't be a problem!"
After all, the whole country is short of things now, and it is actually very troublesome to transfer large quantities of supplies to other provinces. The above documents must be obtained before the railway department will cooperate.
Therefore, things from Lan City cannot be transferred here on a large scale, because if they are not transported by train, they can only be transported little by little by transport trucks.
That would be too slow and the fuel consumption would be very high.
Therefore, there is no point in transporting the things from the main farm to sell here, and neither Lan City nor the province will be happy about it.
For them, these are all materials produced using their local resources. How can you transport them to other provinces to sell?
However, when Yang Zhenye heard Su Wenchen's words, he was ecstatic.
"Director, don't worry. I will definitely arrange the farm tools. When spring plowing begins after the New Year, if you have any problems with farm tools, please contact our comprehensive service department directly."
For Yang Zhenye, the hundreds of thousands of yuan in funds seemed to be the amount of money their commune had never had in its account since its establishment.
Not to mention hundreds of thousands, there aren't even tens of thousands in the account.
This is why the production teams only have some broken farm tools, and the commune can only let the production teams find a solution on their own.
Because their commune was also extremely poor.
First, there is no industry; second, the grain yield in the land is low; and third, there is no ability to develop a side business.
It can be said that there is no income at all, and every year the entire money earned from selling grain to the higher authorities is dependent on the little money.
Su Wenchen nodded slightly at Yang Zhenye's assurance, but still spoke to Yang Wanlou, the new head of the branch's finance department, who was holding a briefcase behind him.
"Section Chief Yang, this time you need to go to the headquarters and contact the finance department to get the money back. I will also send someone over to serve as a deputy."
"But I still have to remind you that every account of the branch farm must be kept clear. Whether it's the main farm or the branch farm, the accounting team from the department comes to inspect our work every year."
"Especially financial work, it's the top priority of the inspection. If anything goes wrong, it won't be me who will deal with you."
After all, the definition of corruption at this time is the misappropriation of state assets.
If you get caught, you can't just drink three cups as punishment and get away with it.
Since this place has always been very poor, Su Wenchen was actually really afraid that the other party would see such a large sum of money and go crazy and put it in his own pocket.
This is also the reason why he wants to transfer a deputy from the finance department from the headquarters, because if there is really something wrong with someone, there will always be consequences if he does not supervise them strictly enough.
Although this incident had limited impact on him, it was something that should be avoided as much as possible.
Yang Zhenye obviously understood the meaning of Su Wenchen's words and made a direct promise.
"Director, don't worry. When I come back, I will make arrangements with the comrades at the headquarters and will also take care of the finance department."
The head of the finance department who was following behind also gave a direct guarantee.
"Director, don't worry. I will definitely work with the comrades at the main farm to sort out the accounts of our branch farm."
"If there's any problem, just ask me directly."
Su Wenchen nodded. After all, he had been given a heads-up in advance. If he really knew there was any problem, he would definitely not tolerate it.
Then he turned around and gave instructions to Cao Jiwen.
"Section Chief Cao, before the New Year, your Agriculture Department must quickly formulate a planting plan for next year."
"You must plan ahead during this period how much saline-alkali land to reclaim and what crops to plant on it. You must also coordinate with the water conservancy department on the farm to ensure that one drainage channel can serve as much land as possible."
"We need to integrate all the people. Don't let it be like before, where each production team looks after its own business, with ditches here and there."
"When I went down to investigate, I found that many production teams had already dug drainage ditches. Clearly, if two teams combined, one ditch would suffice, but they had to dig two or three."
“Isn’t this a waste of manpower?”
Hearing this, Cao Jiwen responded immediately.
"Okay, Director. I'll get back to the Water Conservancy Department and discuss building a main channel based on the drainage ditch we've already dug. The land will be reclaimed along the main channel first."
"Then it will expand along the main channel to both sides to form small branch channels."
After hearing Cao Jiwen's words, Su Wenchen nodded and then looked at Yang Zhenye.
"To be honest, I don't quite understand. You guys in the commune didn't even have enough food before, so why do you insist on doing things that require so much effort?"
Hearing Su Wenchen's words, Yang Zhenye wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Director, our commune is helpless. Our brigade has no secondary industries at all. The brigade has no money or food, and is basically useless."
“The brigade would sometimes come forward to coordinate, but the two production teams would simply say they would agree only if the brigade provided grain, and then things would not move forward.”
"Each production team can only work for one production team."
"But don't worry, Director. I promise that this kind of thing will never happen again."
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Okay, I'll see how you perform later!"
Finally, Su Wenchen said to Hou Guozhong.
"Old Hou, you should also take advantage of this period before the New Year to collect more information. Find out how many state-owned rabbit farms there are in our country and what types of rabbits they raise."
"After the New Year, you will arrange for someone to go on a business trip and bring me all the rabbit breeds you can find. When I return from the meeting in Beijing, I will work with you to be responsible for breeding them."
"We are trying to develop a breed of rabbit that grows a lot of meat, is ready for market quickly, and has a high fat content."
"By the way, when the time comes, your animal husbandry department should organize the elderly people and women in the production teams to form corresponding animal husbandry teams, which will then be responsible for breeding."
"But this year, I have to trouble you. I'm afraid you won't be able to go back for the New Year."
Hou Guozhong waved his hand.
"Director, what's the big deal? You also have to go to Beijing for a meeting! If you're delayed like this, you'll probably have to spend the New Year in Beijing."
"For the development of our farm, a mere year is nothing."
Su Wenchen glanced at Cao Jiwen again.
Cao Jiwen simply shook his head.
"Director, my wife and children have already put me in the newspaper. I'm alone. Even if I go back, I'll be all alone. It's better for me to work here with my comrades!"
Hearing this, Su Wenchen also sighed.
"Okay!"
"Then I'll leave this to you."
"Chief Yang, let's get in the car! I'll take you to the main yard and make arrangements first."
As they spoke, the two of them opened the car door and got in.
Zhao Weiguo looked at Su Wenchen with resentment.
"Director, why don't you ask me if I want to go back home for the New Year?"
Su Wenchen gave the other person an unpleasant look.
"Drive! Take us to Xuzhou Station first. And I can tell you clearly that you can't go back even if you want to. Why do you only care about promotions and not doing anything?"
"If you leave, all the cars in the branch will have to stop!"
"During the Lunar New Year period, you have to train all the tractor drivers here."
"Otherwise, if there's no farm machinery available for spring plowing, I'll hold you responsible."
"By the way, this walking tractor is different from the Dongfanghong medium-sized tractors we have in our farm. You can drive it, right?"
Zhao Weiguo made the promise directly.
"Director, don't worry. This walking tractor is much easier to operate than the Dongfanghong medium-sized tractor."
"It's just not very user-friendly when it's activated. If you don't know the trick, it can easily hit someone and cause injury!"
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Then when you're training, try to make people be more careful and take some protective measures!"
"Especially the head. Other parts of the body are fine, but hitting the head can easily cause problems."
Zhao Weiguo responded directly.
"It's okay, Director. I was hit on the chin by a rocker when I was learning!"
"It hurt so much that I couldn't chew for several days. Look, I'm fine now, aren't I?"
Su Wenchen turned his head and glanced at Zhao Weiguo who was driving.
"Why didn't I notice before? Why are you so stubborn?"
"Your mouth was hit and shaken, but it's still so hard. Why didn't I knock your front teeth out?"
Hearing Su Wenchen's words, Zhao Weiguo smiled awkwardly.
"Director, look at what you said. It really knocked out my front teeth. I'm going to have a lisp when I talk!"
"Besides, it's so ugly to have missing front teeth!"
"Don't worry, Director. I'll try my best to arrange protective gear for them when I get back. I'm sure they won't get hit on the chin like I did."
"But what you said does make sense, Director. If you really shake that thing and hit your front teeth, it's easy to knock them out."
After hearing what Zhao Weiguo said, Su Wenchen's expression gradually relaxed.
It's not that he doesn't allow his subordinates to have their own opinions, but Su Wenchen definitely cannot allow someone to act stubbornly even though he has been forced to do something that makes him almost unable to eat.
After all, they are all employees of the field, so we must try our best to avoid accidents if possible.
If the person is the type who just wants to laugh at others because he has been injured, then Su Wenchen will definitely need to be replaced.
If an ordinary employee thinks so, there is no problem.
However, as a department leader, if you still ignore the risks and just want to laugh at others, then you are seriously unqualified.
If that were the case, Su Wenchen felt that someone had to be replaced immediately.
After all, this thing is not an electric-start tractor, so the learning risk is very low. On such a vast plain, the most you can do is dig a ditch.
In the back seat, Yang Wanlou looked at Zhao Weiguo who was driving with some envy.
Obviously, if the other party can speak to the leader like this, he must be the leader's confidant. Yang Wanlou, who was integrated into the commune, knows this clearly.
Although he seemed to have successfully obtained an important position in the Finance Department, this was only temporary.
After more people followed up at the branch farm, this group of people from the commune were transferred in.
I guess it would be good if half of them can keep their current jobs.
The reason why the farm still uses them is because they are familiar with the local area. In addition, they are all familiar leaders, so the members will have a stronger sense of belonging.
The other party may even be afraid that if they are not assigned positions, someone will privately and deliberately lead the members to create difficulties.
But after a year or two, the members have completely integrated into the farm.
If they had not proven their abilities by then, he could imagine that most of them would have been marginalized bit by bit.
Moreover, at that time, if I wanted to guide the members with a few rumors, I guess no one would pay attention to me at all.
After all, the most important production department is entirely in the hands of the other party.
Now, all the original production teams of the communes below are registered under the names of agricultural teams and animal husbandry teams under the agricultural department and animal husbandry department.
The people from their commune seem to be in control of most departments.
But the people who were basically in control were the cadres and staff of the original commune.
To put it bluntly, the right to speak is just one person and one money.
The person is controlled by the other party, and it seems that the financial power has been given away.
But he knew very well that after he went to the headquarters and waited for the deputy to be transferred here and get familiar with the place, he would not be so safe anymore.
Therefore, you must prove your value during this period when the other party feels that it is not time to make a big move, so as to maintain your position.
As for confrontation!
He never thought about it because he could not see any possibility of winning.
The jeep arrived at the station shaking all the way.
Su Wenchen and Yang Wanlou also boarded the train back to Lan City.
He was only sending the people from the branch farm to the main farm, and he also went back to ask Ali if she wanted to take this opportunity to return to Beijing for the New Year. After all, if they missed this opportunity, both of them would probably be busier and busier in the future.
Then there will be even fewer opportunities to go to Beijing together.
Moreover, when they got married, neither of them went back home. According to the rules, they had to visit the other party at least once. If the other party did not welcome them, they would just stop contacting each other in the future.
The current Su Wenchen is no longer the little Karami who hid in the commune and could be easily manipulated by the other party.
As the breeder of Yuehua rabbits and the head of a national farm, his personnel appointment now has to be approved by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry before he can be transferred.
It's not something that can be dispatched at will just by saying hello to someone.
Lan City.
The delivery truck that Su Wenchen and Yang Wanlou were riding in drove slowly along the dirt road outside Lan City, its wheels kicking up a cloud of fine dust.
As they got closer to the Blue Water Farm, just after crossing the bridge, the road gradually changed from a bumpy dirt road to a smooth concrete road. Yang Wanlou was a little surprised when he saw this scene, because this is rare in rural areas.
He immediately asked Su Wenchen curiously.
"Director, this side of the main field is actually all cement roads!"
Su Wenchen smiled and shook his head.
"What are you thinking about? This was just repaired! They hadn't even started repairing it when I came out."
"At the time, Lao Zhang said he wanted to fix up the storefront, but I didn't expect him to act so quickly."
Hearing Su Wenchen's words, the driver of the transport team immediately nodded and said.
"Director, we are now a state-level farm, how can there still be a cinder road at the entrance?"
"Deputy Director Zhang said that since it's the off-season now and the members around here have some free time, they should repair the road from the bridge to our farm."
"But time is a bit tight. Deputy Director Zhang said this side of the bridge is our facade, so currently only the two sections near the bridge and at the entrance to the field have been repaired. The rest are still being connected from both sides to the middle bit by bit!"
As soon as the other party finished speaking, Su Wenchen saw the short cement road come to an abrupt end. A group of nearby members were working hard with tools to lay the roadbed.
As soon as the driver turned the steering wheel and entered the small road left on the side, the car began to shake instantly.
As the car was shaking, Yang Wanlou, who was squeezed in the passenger seat with Su Wenchen, looked into the distance.
Outside the car window, the winter sun cast a faint golden hue, and the outline of the farm in the distance gradually became clear.
After driving for a while, the car passed a group of members who were repairing the road in the middle and turned onto the cement road that had just been repaired.
His eyes suddenly became clear.
A straight and wide cement road leads directly to the farm gate. The road surface is so smooth that you can almost skate on it.
On both sides of the road here, there are newly planted poplar saplings arranged neatly. Since there are windproof ropes tied to the trunks, they must have been planted not long ago.
The red brick walls on the inner side of the road were now covered with a layer of cement, and huge slogans such as "Hard work, self-reliance" were printed with lime at regular intervals on the wall.
In particular, there is a red flag planted at intervals, and the swaying red flags flutter in the cold wind.
He felt that it was indeed the headquarters, as even the walls were covered with cement.
As the car moves forward.
Yang Wanlou looked from afar and saw that at the gate of Lanshui Farm, there were two thick square gateposts painted in a striking white. A red five-pointed star was embedded on the top of each pillar, shining brightly in the sun.
On the inside of the doorpost, there is a whole row of unit plaques.
From "Farm Directly Under the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry", to "National Yuehua Rabbit Breeding Base", to "Foreign Trade Export and Foreign Exchange Earning Red Flag Unit".
Others include "Yellow River Flood Area Management Demonstration Point", "Provincial Agricultural Learning from Dazhai Model Unit", "Lan City Large-Scale Layer Chicken Breeding Demonstration Base" and several other brands.
At the top of the gate hangs a cement plaque with the four big characters "Blue Water Farm" written on it. The characters are outlined in red paint, making it look particularly solemn.
The scene in front of him made Yang Wanlou's throat roll subconsciously.
"Director, this headquarters is so magnificent!"
The most magnificent farm he had ever seen in his life was the Huxi Farm next door to them, which was also the goal their commune had always wanted to achieve.
But compared with the one in front of me, it is nothing.
The row of unit plaques placed at the door alone are eight blocks ahead of the farm over there.
Even before they entered, Yang Wanlou already felt that they were really lucky this time.
A farm of this size set up a branch in their area, definitely for the purpose of establishing a demonstration site for the management of the Yellow River flood area. Otherwise, he couldn't figure out why the other party would invest resources in them.
But that didn't matter to him.
The important thing is that he must try his best to hold on to this thigh. He knows very well that this opportunity is rare. If he misses it, he will probably never get another chance in his lifetime.
After hearing Yang Wanlou's words, before Su Wenchen could speak, the driver of the transport team said with some pride.
"Comrade, this is nothing! The renovations have only been going on for a month!"
"I'm telling you, when you come next time, you'll be shocked by the scene we have!"
"And Deputy Director Zhang even brought back a huge piece of stone from the provincial government, saying he wants to make a statue out of it!"
Obviously, as a member of the farm, even as a driver, he is very proud of the current development of the farm.
When Su Wenchen heard the other party's words, he remembered that Zhang Zhenhua had discussed with him about renovating the storefront before he left.
He didn't expect the other party to move so quickly and complete the task so well. Even Su Wenchen had to admit it.
After this renovation, the level has indeed been raised.
It is definitely not comparable to the dusty cinder road before.
Add to that the trees on both sides, the slogans printed on the wall, and the fluttering red flags, and it's quite unique in this era.
It is indeed very intimidating.
Looking at the current state of the farm, Su Wenchen felt a little emotional. Who would have thought that this was once an abandoned steelmaking site where not even a few grasses could grow.
In the blink of an eye, a few years have passed and the state-owned farm that I built with my own hands has unknowingly grown to its current size.
After hearing what Yang Wanlou said, Su Wenchen felt a strong sense of accomplishment.
But he still said it.
"As long as we work hard, the branch field will definitely be built to this scale."
"You should know that there are only a thousand people at the main farm right now, and more than 400 of them are at the Shiquan Chicken Farm."
"There are nearly 9,000 people in the branch field. As long as we work hard to develop, the potential will definitely be greater!"
At this stage, he has completed the development of the Blue Water Farm headquarters, and the headquarters is getting on the right track without his intervention.
Now this place has developed little by little from an abandoned steel-making site to this scale.
The Yellow River flood area has more land, population and resources, and Su Wenchen also wants to see what happens there under his intervention.
What will be the final scale of the Yellow River flood area?
