Zhang Guangzong said, "It just occurred to me that we could move beyond agriculture and do something else. Right now, during the slack season, we do side jobs like weaving baskets or making brooms, but those don't last long and are just small-time endeavors. What if we could develop a long-term sideline, not just during the slack season, but year-round?"
Accountant Zhang Renjie asked him, "So what is this long-term side hustle?"
Yan Guixiang thought for a moment and said, "Open a flour mill? A towel factory? The two raw materials are wheat and cotton, which are more relevant to us."
Li Changshun said: "To set up a factory, you need a factory building, machines, electricity, technicians, and a supply of raw materials. There are so many links to connect with."
After he finished speaking, everyone looked at Zhang Guangzong.
Zhang Guangzong frowned in thought, then slammed the table and said, "Try it!"
Zhao Fuguo asked: "How do we try?"
Zhang Guangzong looked at Yang Jingxiu and said, "Brother Yang, elder brother, dear brother, I will go to the commune first to talk to him. If necessary, you can come forward. You have great reputation."
Yang Jingxiu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go. If the commune doesn't work out, I'll go to the county."

"Let's discuss how to run the factory."
Yan Guixiang said, "What are you discussing? We haven't even started yet. You have to get this matter cleared up at the commune first. Once they agree, and most likely the county too, then we can discuss the details. As long as they agree, all other issues will be easy to resolve. Reporting to the higher-ups is the first step. Once that's done, we can discuss other things. Do I need to discuss this step with you?"
Zhao Fuguo shook his head, "No need."
"That's it, isn't it?"
Zhao Fuguo: “…”
Li Changshun said, "Old Zhao, just stop talking and listen to what Old Yan has to say."
Yang Jingxiu said, "Just make sure the brigade maintains good public order."
Zhao Fuguo: “…”
