Chapter 134: Most Small Fertilizers Suffer Losses
Xie Yun smiled and thanked him: "Director Qian, thank you for coming to our Qushui County. You have helped us a lot."
Qian Daguang smiled and said, "It's a lucky coincidence that this has grown into a beautiful forest. This isn't my fault; the key is that you guys seized the opportunity. We've been on business trips a lot before, and no one else has ever mentioned this idea."
They may just be thinking about it in their hearts and not daring to say it out loud, not as bold as you are.
Zhou Quan laughed too. He was a driver, traveling extensively, and he'd never seen a leadership team like Qushui County's. Everyone was so focused on hard work, afraid of causing trouble for the country, but they were actually making demands. "Agriculture should learn from Dazhai, but they're doing it in the opposite direction, aren't they?"
The Dazhai spirit is said to be "the principle of putting politics in command and thinking first, the spirit of self-reliance and hard work, and the communist style of loving the country and the collective", but in essence, it is "to be self-reliant, to be like Dazhai, which does not borrow money from the country and does not ask for things from the country."
These guys have learned the high-sounding tricks and ignored the essence.
But you can't say they were wrong. There really wasn't anything wrong. If they didn't ask the state for the fertilizer plant, were they going to let the working people create it out of thin air? Impossible!
Zhou Quan had a lot on his mind, but on the surface he just smiled and said nothing. As a driver, the most important thing is to talk less, so he can only mutter in his heart.
Xie Yun smiled and said, "We have no choice. We want to plant more land, plant better land, and produce more grain. This is all for the country and the collective, for the overall situation."
comprehensive:"……"
Qian Daguang: “…”
After discussing the application, Xie Yun said to Qian Daguang, "Once our factory is built and operational, we should train a few technicians to repair the equipment, right? Otherwise, what if there's a problem with the equipment? We'll have to contact the manufacturer."
Qian Daguang said: "Technicians should be trained to solve problems that they can solve themselves. If they really can't solve the problem, they should contact the manufacturer and ask them to send someone over."
"How many technicians do you have in your factory?"
Qian Daguang thought for a moment and said, "That's a lot. Not only do workshop operations require skills, but the auxiliary workshops for instrument maintenance also need technicians responsible for mechanical repairs, electrical repairs, and instrument repairs. Once your project is officially approved, you must send people to us as soon as possible to learn. There are various problems that may be encountered during the actual production process, and skilled workers can avoid some of them."
He Zeshan expressed his sincere gratitude and added, "Actually, many factories are losing money right now, and it's hard for fertilizer plants to make a profit. But we have to do this. If we don't, agriculture won't develop."
Qian Daguang felt sympathetic and said, "That's true."
Many factories need financial subsidies, otherwise they will lose money.
Xie Yun smiled and said, "When our factory is just starting out, can we borrow two high-level technicians from you? This will ensure smooth production. Also, I'd like to learn some mechanical maintenance techniques. Do you have any materials you can lend me?"
Qian Daguang was surprised and asked, "You still want to learn this?"
"Yes, I do. I'm still young, so it's always good to learn more. I can be there wherever I'm needed in the future! For the sake of my country and its people, I'm willing to be a screwdriver, no, a screw. I didn't sleep all night, so I'm talking nonsense."
Qian Daguang smiled and said, "I have some information. I'll send it to you when I get back. Let me tell you, the information we have there is quite advanced. Our factory's equipment is imported. We have been doing reverse research for the past two years, but the progress hasn't been great. It's a good opportunity for you to learn from it. Maybe you can come up with some ideas. If you have any questions, just write to me."
They introduced the equipment in order to imitate it, gradually master the technology and achieve independent production. Now it seems that there is still a long way to go.

After talking with Xie Yun and the others, Qian Daguang and Zhou Quan drove back to the provincial capital.
Xie Yun and He Zeshan returned to the county party committee.
She asked He Zeshan, "Do you really think the fertilizer plant will lose money?"
He Zeshan laughed and said, "It's not that I think it will, but it will definitely lose money."
"Then you still agree to do it?"
"Like I said earlier, farmers need fertilizer. With fertilizer, they can grow more food, and they can keep more for themselves. Some things have to be done even if it means losing money."
Xie Yun: “…”
She thought for a moment and consoled him, "I think as long as the workers are skilled, the technology is mature, the power grid can provide enough power, and the management is up to standard, it's still possible to be self-sufficient."
He Zeshan glanced at Xie Yun and said with a smile, "None of what you said is easy to achieve."
Xie Yun: “…”
After a moment of silence, she continued, "How could that be? Didn't Director Qian say so? Send people there to learn. We can start upgrading the power grid right now, and as for corporate management, we can send people to large factories to learn. There are always more solutions than problems. And I believe that even if we make a small loss in the first two years, we'll be able to turn a profit in no time."
He Zeshan said with a smile, "Thank you for your good words. Why does everything seem so simple when it comes out of your mouth?"
"Because it's really simple. When you encounter a problem, just solve it. Don't assume it's difficult. Just go forward step by step. It's not difficult at all. If you encounter a mountain, you can cut a path through it. If you encounter a river, you can build a bridge over it!"
He Zeshan: "...You have a point. It's not difficult at all. Besides, what if it's difficult? We can't just give up on it!"
"Yes, yes, that's right! Even if there are difficulties, we must face them head-on and overcome them!"
He Zeshan: “…Yes.”
The two chatted about the fertilizer factory for a while, and then Xie Yun said goodbye and went home.
Before leaving the county party committee compound, she met Zhang Jie, her colleague from Taoyuan Commune.
"Xiao Xie."
"Zhang Jie, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"
"I'm here to pick someone up. Secretary Li and the others asked me to come find you. I just wanted to ask if you're done with your work. If you're done, we can go back together."
"I'm done and about to leave. You came just in time. Who are you here to pick up?"
"The educated youth from Beijing, named Yue Zheng, went to your Liushu Village to work in the production team. The county educated youth office was worried about letting her go alone, so they called the commune and asked us to pick her up. So I drove my tractor over here."
Xie Yun: “!!!”
Yue Zheng!
The official match of Comrade Yan Dongsheng, the daughter of his teacher. In the original novel, Yue Zheng went to the frontier, where the environment was harsh. She stayed there for just over a year before falling seriously ill and had to return to the capital for treatment.
After her parents were rehabilitated, she resumed her studies and work and joined Yan Dongsheng's research team. She and Yan Dongsheng shared the same ideals and not only worked together, but later got married. She made indelible contributions to his research on distant hybrid wheat varieties.
But her health was never good and she died in her forties.
Now that I’m back in Liushutun, I’m sure I’ll live a long life!
"That's perfect. I can tell her about the commune and Liushutun in the car."
The two men walked out of the yard. Zhang Jie cranked the handle to start the tractor, while Xie Yun climbed into the back bucket and sat with Yue Zheng.
"Hello! My name is Xie Yun, and I'm from the Liushutun Brigade. I heard you were going to join our team?"
"Hello! My name is Yue Zheng, and I'm going to Liushutun."
"Every educated youth here can use their specialties. Some do research, some become teachers. What are you good at? Talk to our team leader and he can arrange a job for you based on the actual situation."
Yue Zheng smiled and said, "I studied plant pathology in school. I don't know what I can do there. But I can teach students and farm."
Xie Yun smiled and said, "Everyone has to farm. Comrade Yan Dongsheng, who does research here, farms and does research during the day, and teaches students at night. It's not enough to just teach students. You have to be mentally prepared. It's hard work, from the moment you open your eyes to the moment you close them."
Yue Zheng smiled and said, "Since I'm here, I must be prepared. I know Comrade Yan Dongsheng. Whatever he can do, I can do too."
"Really? You know Professor Yan? He's doing research on hybrid wheat. So, can you do research like him?"
"I can help him. He's researching hybrid wheat, and he needs my expertise in plant pathology."
"That's great. I hope you can produce results soon. That way, our Taoyuan Commune High-Quality Wheat Seed Research Institute will be more worthy of its name."
"graduate School?"
"Yes. We have established a research institute, and Professor Yan is the main researcher."
Her article was just sent out the day before yesterday and hasn't been published yet. She still needs to introduce these things.
