Chen Jianhui had no face to say anything since his own commune was not doing well.
So he readily agreed to Guan Wenru's request that he not interfere with the factory's sales.
As long as there's a market, that's fine.
...
The next morning, a military jeep was parked in front of the feed processing plant.
Guan Wenru, dressed in neat overalls, is inspecting the vehicle's condition.
Deputy factory director Zhou Tianlei and warehouse manager Che Zhenxing left the factory on time.
Che Zhenxing was still holding a notebook and a draft of the cooperation agreement.
Guan Wenru informed them yesterday that she would be going out today to discuss cooperation, and asked them to meet at the factory gate at eight o'clock.
They still don't know how to get there.
As soon as he came out, Zhou Tianlei saw the Jeep at the door and raised his eyebrows. "Director Guan, can we use this car today?"
This is a military vehicle.
Guan Wenru smiled and said, "We're going to visit several places today, so I borrowed a car from the military."
"That's great!" Zhou Tianlei's eyes crinkled into a smile.
Che Zhenxing looked around but didn't see the driver. He asked, "Director Guan, where's the driver? Shall we wait for him to set off together?"
Guan Wenru opened the car door. "Why are you waiting for a driver? I'm your driver today. Get in."
After saying that, she decisively got into the driver's seat and patted the steering wheel.
"Huh?" Zhou Tianlei and Che Zhenxing froze on the spot, their eyes wide and mouths slightly open, staring incredulously at Guan Wenru, who was already sitting in the driver's seat.
After getting into the car, Che Zhenxing stammered, "Director Guan...you can drive this? This is a Jeep!"
Zhou Tianlei was equally shocked. "Director Guan, you can even tame this iron thing? That's a rare skill!"
“I learned this from my grandma before, so sit properly.” Guan Wenru calmly waited for them to close the car door.
She skillfully started the engine, shifted gears, released the clutch, and accelerated, and the jeep smoothly drove out of the factory gate.
Sitting in the back seat, Che Zhenxing watched Guan Wenru skillfully manipulating the steering wheel and gear lever, and couldn't help but sigh again:
"Director Guan, you really know everything! Operating machines, running factories, being a leader, and now you even drive this big car so well! I've never seen a woman drive a car before! You're amazing!"
For a moment, he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
When he first met Guan Wenru, he was amazed by her beauty. Relying on the fact that he was the son of the brigade leader, he was perhaps a little confident and even dared to have some thoughts about her.
Later, when he learned that she was the wife of a regimental commander, he marveled that with her looks, she could indeed marry such an outstanding officer.
But later, when he learned that she was going to set up a factory, get rid of Li Daming, and even reshuffle the commune leadership, he realized that she was really capable.
Now I can still go out and discuss collaborations with people, and I'm also a skilled driver.
She seems to know everything.
She can do everything better than a man!
So at this moment, he felt ashamed of the thoughts that had crossed his mind.
How could he possibly have any ulterior motives towards such an outstanding and perfect woman?
That's simply overestimating themselves!
After being praised, Guan Wenru smiled and said, "Actually, driving isn't that difficult. When there's an opportunity later, I'll send you to learn in the name of the factory. You'll need it in the future."
Che Zhenxing's eyes lit up. "Sure, if I have the chance, I'll definitely study hard."
Zhou Tianlei, sitting in the passenger seat, nodded repeatedly as the car swayed slightly, his tone full of admiration:
"Yes! This is truly an eye-opener! Director Guan, with your skills, you'd be unmatched anywhere!"
He gave a thumbs up, "With you personally driving the military vehicle to negotiate with Hongqi and Qianshan, we already have half the momentum!"
Guan Wenru stared intently at the dirt road ahead, a slight smile playing on her lips. This was the reason she had borrowed a vehicle from the military unit today.
She wanted the leaders of those two communes to know that the feed processing plant was fully supported by the military.
Whether now or decades from now, people have confidence in the person wearing that green outfit.
Guan Wenru didn't want to hear Zhou Tianlei and Che Zhenxing continue praising her, so she quickly said, "Deputy Factory Director Zhou, go over our cooperation draft again, especially the clauses regarding feed ingredients, expected effects, and initial preferential prices."
Zhenxing, you should pay close attention to the route and transportation issues. Hongqi Commune is closer to the national highway, so the road conditions are better, but it is a bit far away.
The road to Qianshan Commune is a bit difficult to travel, but it's close to us. Keep that in mind; you'll have to coordinate with the transport team for the specific transportation arrangements later on.
Che Zhenxing immediately took out his notebook and map, his expression becoming serious. "Understood, Director Guan! I remember it. It takes about an hour and a half to get to Hongqi Commune and about forty minutes to get to Qianshan Commune, but there are a lot of potholes on that mountain road. I know the transport team's Lao Niu well. I'll meet with him later to discuss the route and number of trips."
Guan Wenru nodded, "Okay, I trust you with this matter."
Zhou Tianlei also opened his notebook. "The draft is fine. The key points are all marked. Factory director, when we get there, should we go directly to their commune director?"
"Yes, go directly to the person who can make the decision!"
Guan Wenru stepped on the gas and drove towards the direction of Hongqi Commune.
...
Red Flag Commune Director's Office
Director Liu of Hongqi Commune carefully reviewed the feed samples and instructions brought by Guan Wenru, and then listened to Zhou Tianlei's introduction.
He was initially skeptical, saying, "Straw crushing and processing, scientific formulation... this idea is indeed good! But is the military logistics department really using it? Are the results really that significant?"
Guan Wenru nodded. "Director Liu, the results are all in this report. The cattle and sheep in the army's logistics department have been used for nearly seven months, and their average weight gain is much higher than that of the same period. We came here this time hoping to find a production team in our Hongqi Commune to try it out first, so that we can see for ourselves."
