They had just arrived and encountered this kind of thing, which made them feel sick. Originally, they planned to build a small factory to do some food processing.
It is convenient to open a factory openly and do anything privately. After all, this place is close to the border, so it is easy to recognize outsiders.
Now it has been temporarily changed into a processing workshop. I contacted Aunt Qin and others and asked them to buy two dryers.
In addition to the dilapidated house on the west side of the yard, several other rooms will be built to serve as operation rooms, warehouses, and raw material rooms.
The place they had found was large enough to be divided into a front and back yard. The workers worked in the front, and they lived in the back, so there would be room for other comrades to come.
In addition to the house, a particularly large shed was built, covered with tiles and made of bricks.
Inside are three ovens placed side by side. The weather here is hot and rainy, so the shed is a little cooler than the workshop.
They have studied it in the capital and decided what to do better. Now they are open to encourage individual business.
There is everything from restaurants to clothing stores to breakfast, but it is not easy to operate because breakfast does not require so many people.
Restaurants and clothing stores cannot do without people, so we finally decided to set up a small factory here. With so many fruits, it would be great if they could be canned or dried!
It is said that everything is difficult at the beginning. They were almost cheated by others, so they gave up the idea of doing anything big and decided that a small workshop would be enough.
I have excuses to go out normally, whether it's to explore sales channels or find sources of supply, I can say anything.
After discussing the subsequent arrangements, Guangjin went out to find the village chief. There are many ethnic minorities here, so we have to find local people to build houses in the village.
The villagers had known for a long time that a house was going to be built in the big yard. They had clearly stated that they would be paid for the construction and that they would also have to hire two old ladies to help cook.
I don't know what taboos they have, and I may not be used to the food she cooks, so I ask the village aunties to buy vegetables and meat for me every day and let them take care of it.
"A laborer gets 50 cents a day, a bricklayer gets 8 cents a day with two meals, and I don't know how the carpenter calculates his wages. Please ask them."
As he spoke, Guangjin handed the things in his hand to the village chief, which contained a pack of cigarettes, two bottles of wine and a pound of brown sugar.
Since the distribution of property to households, each family has had some extra money, and is no longer as tight as before. They have fewer problems asking others for help and are unable to pay.
The village chief was quite satisfied with their attitude. It wasn't about the size of the gifts they gave. He just respected them and didn't have the contemptuous attitude of people from big cities.
Unlike the educated youth of previous years, whose eyes were all on top of their heads, their village was relatively good, and the conditions were slightly better because it was closer to the town.
If they were to go to those villages that are actually in the forest or on the mountain, they probably wouldn't be able to stay there for even a day.
The two kids seem to be doing well. It's not the busy farming season now, so I can support them in more than half a month. It's good that I can earn some pocket money without delaying anything.
"I need to ask the carpenter if they charge per day, or if they charge per unit for the beams, door frames, etc. Wait for me on these. And, young man, does your factory need any help?"
The village chief thought that a small processing factory would not need many people, so he took advantage of the fact that other villages were not aware of the quotas and took up a few places first. There were many idle women in the village.
Where can you find such a good thing where you can just earn a little salary to supplement your family income and it’s so close to home?
Guangjin came here with the intention of doing good business. He is close to the village and can help with anything.
The village couldn't afford to offend that family last time, but the old village chief still gave them hints and warnings. Now that that family is finished, the village chief will definitely take care of them.
"Our place is quite small. Once it's finished, we'll probably need 7 or 8 people, right? We'll talk about the details later. We'll definitely focus on finding people in our village. We're considered part of the village!"
The village chief assured that the house would be built solidly and the craftsmen hired to do the work would be skilled and capable.
Those who are cunning and dishonest will never show up, and the lady who cooks will be the one who is clean and has good cooking skills. Just leave the work to him and rest assured!
After returning, Guangjin explained everything and went to the town to buy 200 kilograms of grain. He would start working the next day and buy vegetables and meat from the village.
At night, Jiang Cha and his friend studied the map in bed to see which way would be easier to enter.
Especially the large primeval forest in the middle. These northern kids just went in without any preparation and were just asking for death.
After all, they don't understand the situation here. It is said that it was the Japanese who fired the first shot at Lugou Bridge.
He suffered a major setback here, and many years later, people still suspected him of being a traitor lurking within Xiao Rizi.
He planned to lead 100,000 men across the forest from the border, but he only brought two weeks' worth of supplies and encouraged the Japanese to eat grass when they were hungry.
Out of a hundred thousand men, over fifty thousand perished in just a few days, and all the equipment they had brought with them was also lost. In the end, only over ten thousand men emerged from the forest alive. I heard that this man attempted seppuku but failed because he found it too painful!
If there had been more people like this, we wouldn't have had to work so hard; they would have been wiped out. What a pity! There aren't many such "good generals," and these three are all renowned talents.
"We need to prepare some snake medicine, insect repellent powder, anti-inflammatory medicine, and if we don't have alcohol, we can bring some strong liquor. We also need salt, matches, and rainproof cloth. Oh, and I also brought some good stuff."
Jiang Cha climbed down from the bed and rummaged through the luggage, finding two oilcloth packages hidden in the innermost part.
He took it out and handed it to Guangjin, motioning him to open it and take a look.
The oilcloth was opened to reveal a knife, the outer scabbard was made of leather. The handle was wrapped with fine cowhide, and the slightly long handle did not look like it was made in China.
"This is a US Army knife, supposedly issued to the Marine Corps. The blade is sharp and of good quality, making it perfect for use as a hatchet here."
She collected the items from a big boss's warehouse in the United States, and they were not allowed to carry any obvious markings on them.
Being worried that the civilian knives were not hard enough, Jiang Cha just gave him one. When it comes to life and death, any lie can be made up.
"Fuck, you're the one! I've only seen this thing in a military magazine. They say it's made of top-notch material. Not everyone over there has one, so it's amazing you managed to get one!"
He jumped out of bed without even bothering to put on his shoes, walked around and pulled out a strand of Jiang Cha's hair, then rushed to the living room without waiting for her to shout.
"Holy crap, that's awesome, really awesome!"
He came in, holding a knife and searching around, intending to try something else. If I wasn't afraid of seeing blood, I would have said a few words to him.
"You don't want to look at the remaining bag? I went to great lengths to find it."
The other oilcloth bag was smaller. Guangjin carefully put away the knife, opened the small package and displayed the contents in front of him.
"I call you sister, you are my real sister! Oh my god! Where did you find this thing? It's absolutely amazing!"
