Chapter 113 Big Liar Xie Yun
He looked at Xie Yun's jar of honey, and then at the little bit handed to him. He felt his dignity and personality trembling, and shouted loudly, "Reject her, let her get out with her honey." However, his intuition told him that he couldn't do this, and he would regret it if he did.
So, he took the honey, put it into his mouth neatly, and smacked it twice. He immediately had a deeper understanding of the description "sweet as honey".
Xie Yun asked him, "Is it delicious?"
"tasty."
It would be better if you could give me a little more, even a piece the size of a red date, it would be better than a fingernail.
Xie Yun ignored his eager eyes and smiled, "I've inquired before, and the price the supply and marketing cooperative pays for honey is quite high."
Zhang Guangzong sighed, "But you only come across this kind of thing once in a while."
Xie Yun said, "I heard that bees can be raised."
Zhang Guangzong: "None of our ancestors have ever done this."
"Our ancestors never opened a flour mill, a night school, a veterinary clinic, or a clinic, but you've done all that, haven't you? This is a new society! The Chairman said we must be determined, fear no sacrifice, and overcome all difficulties to strive for victory. Raising bees is just that—is it harder than fighting the Japanese?"
Zhang Guangzong: “…”
Xie Yun added, "Doesn't our county have an Agriculture Bureau and an Agricultural Science Station? The night school is looking for teachers, so why don't you go to the Agricultural Science Station and ask for someone to teach everyone how to keep bees? Perhaps our members would be interested. Once the enthusiasm of the masses is aroused, what can't be accomplished? Millet and rifles can defeat enemy planes and artillery, let alone keeping bees!"
Zhang Guangzong looked at her and suddenly said, "Binbin, our team is still short of a deputy team leader. You can do it."
Xie Yun stood up, covered his enamel pot, and waved to him, "Goodbye."
She was responsible for daring to think, and Captain Zhang was responsible for daring to act, which was good. She didn't get deeply involved in other things.
Although the brigade has additional barefoot doctors, barefoot veterinarians, flour mills, and middle schools, the number of people who can find employment through these channels is limited. Moreover, even for those who have partially or completely left agricultural production, their wages are paid through the brigade's work points, and the financial subsidies are pitifully small and can be ignored.
For example, her salary as a middle school teacher consists of two parts. The brigade gives her full work points throughout the year, which is 3,600 points a year, 300 points a month, and the commune finances a subsidy of 6 yuan a month.
Because Qushui County has made a regulation on the salary of private teachers, the total amount per month cannot be less than 18 yuan. In some brigades, work points are more expensive, and the work points alone converted into money are enough to be 18 yuan, then the commune will no longer provide subsidies. Some work points are worthless, and the difference after conversion into money will be made up by the commune.
In Liushutun, one work point was 4 cents, which was only 12 yuan a month, so the commune had to give a subsidy of 6 yuan.
She was considered lucky. The county even set a "minimum wage," while barefoot doctors, barefoot veterinarians, and flour mill workers only earned work points. Barefoot doctors and veterinarians received some sort of consultation fee, but flour mill workers received none. While the work was slightly easier than working in the fields, many people were eager to take it.
The warehouse manager and accountant at the flour mill earn a little more. They were selected through open recruitment across the entire team. The accountant graduated from junior high school, and the warehouse manager also finished elementary school.
Therefore, the most important point is to increase the collective income of the brigade, make every work point more valuable, and achieve collective prosperity.
Xie Yun feels that the current brigade is like a business group. The group's resources include a lot of real estate - land, forests, and a lot of cheap labor. This group not only has to be responsible for its own profits and losses, but also has to pay high taxes. The brigade leader serves as both chairman and general manager, and has absolute dominance and control over the group's resources. He is responsible for all aspects of project establishment, production, and sales. In this case, the chairman's vision, knowledge, and leadership are very important.
In addition to these proprietary resources, the group actually also possesses an intangible asset, which is foreign aid.
All people in the world are brothers. If you can't handle something by yourself, you should ask for help from others. As long as you hold high the banner, others will have no choice but to help!
Zhang Guangzong looked at Xie Yun's back as he walked away leisurely, and started thinking.
Zhao Fuguo came over and asked him, "Did she give you honey?"
Zhang Guangzong: "...Isn't that obvious?"
Zhao Fuguo pouted, "Why didn't she let me try it? I'll go look for her in the mountains later."
"no!"
"ah?"
"Didn't you hear us say that we need to consider raising bees? If so, then don't touch these bees and hives until you consult an expert first."
Zhao Fuguo: “…”
☆
Zhang Guangzong set out for the commune the next day. He first found the commune's agricultural technology station and told it about his demands. The commune's agricultural technology station did not have talents in this area, so they gave him a letter of introduction and sent him to the county agricultural bureau.
He was received by the relevant person in charge of the County Agriculture Bureau.
"Sit down and have some water, Comrade Zhang. Why did you suddenly think of beekeeping?"
The person in charge pushed the cup of water to Zhang Guangzong and asked with a warm smile.
Zhang Guangzong smiled innocently, "Isn't this about producing as much as possible for the country? Our brigade has a few hillsides with some wild bees on them. We didn't notice them before. Two days ago, a child in the team went up the mountain to collect firewood and saw a beehive on a tree. It was quite big and the honey was about to drip out.
He immediately reported this to the team. We then thought, since wild bees can produce so much honey, if we raise more bees, can we produce a batch of honey every year to contribute to the country? If we produce more, can we even export it and earn some foreign exchange for our country?
We farmers aren't afraid of hardship, fatigue, or hard work. As long as we can contribute to our country, we're willing to endure any hardship or fatigue. But we've never done this before, and we have no experience or skills. Before we begin, we wanted to ask for advice. Take a look at this..."
The person in charge smiled and said, "It's great that you have this idea. If everyone in our country were as proactive as you, there would be no worries about development!"
Zhang Guangzong smiled and said, "It's all as it should be. We can live such a good life now, thanks to the Party and the government. We sincerely want to make our country develop better!"
The person in charge nodded repeatedly and said, "We didn't do much research on beekeeping in Qushui County before, but by chance, we exchanged work with the neighboring Yangqing County a few years ago and visited them. It happened that they had a bee breeding farm and were vigorously promoting beekeeping. One of our technicians went there to learn and gained some experience.
After returning, we've been considering promoting beekeeping in Qushui County, but haven't officially started yet. So, we'll assign this technician to you so you can explore together. If beekeeping has a future and local residents are interested, we'll encourage other brigades to join in this endeavor.
A smile suddenly spread across Zhang Guangzong's face: "Then I'm really lucky to come here. Thank you for your support!"
The leader was also very happy, he could feel Zhang Guangzong's heartfelt joy.
Zhang Guangzong walked out of the Agricultural Bureau with high spirits and great ambition. He was really happy. This was simply a dream come true! At this moment, he sincerely believed that there was nothing he couldn't do!
