Chapter 257: Not Here to Take Advantage
Zheng Guoqiang immediately asked someone to notify other cadres not to leave work yet and to hold a small meeting first.
We need to count how much vegetables the county can produce.
Then figure out what supplies to bring back.
Tang Tian called the institute, but it was not that busy as the leaders had all gone off work.
But it doesn’t matter, there’s no rush.
After all, we still have to wait for news from the county.
The next day she went to the post office and called the library to ask the director's opinion. If the director was willing to seek benefits for the employees, he would purchase a carload of vegetables in the name of the library and send it to Beijing.
A truckload of vegetables weighs 120,000 jin, and the price for buying vegetables in the countryside is only one or two cents per jin.
At two cents per pound, a truckload of vegetables costs two thousand four hundred yuan.
When the materials are exchanged back, some will be distributed to the employees, and the rest can be distributed to other units...
The library has gone to great lengths to get these things, so it should be okay to give them a little extra money!
There is no speculation when units are connected to each other!
At that time, not only will the library not have to pay for this batch of welfare materials, it may even make some money.
Fang Tianming immediately decided to support Tang Tian in doing so.
Tang Tian asked him to purchase vegetables from the Red Star Brigade first. After the Red Star Brigade had sold out, he could buy from other brigades in the commune.
"It's up to you what you want to exchange. These days it's nothing more than cloth, daily necessities, and canned meat... these are in short supply." Fang Tianming said with a bright smile.
Naturally, he wanted to make it look good on his first National Day as a new official.
So that the employees below can see the difference between him and Qin Ping when he came to power.
Tang Tian asked: "Can the ones with defects be used? We can exchange more for the ones with defects, and we can give more to the employees when the time comes!"
Fang Tianming said without hesitation: "Okay! Of course! Why not!"
Done!
Next is the county.
After a meeting and discussion, the county unanimously decided to change fertilizers!
You know, every year before the spring plowing, the communes below would fight over fertilizer quotas and even break their heads!
As for how much vegetables can be organized, they need to go down and do a count.
Tang Tian had an idea in mind.
She and Dahu went to the Shengli Fertilizer Factory in the suburbs, handed a cigarette to the security guard, and said she wanted to exchange vegetables for fertilizer and wanted to meet their logistics director.
When the old man heard that they had vegetables, his eyes lit up.
Immediately find someone to help guard the door and take them to the logistics department.
When the people from the logistics department saw Tang Tian and Da Hu, they sneered and said, "Uncle Qiu, don't bring any cats or dogs with you. They are so young, what can they do?"
"The swindlers have even tricked people into coming to the fertilizer factory!"
"Hurry up and leave, or I'll call the security department!"
Upon hearing this, Da Hu was about to argue with him, but Tang Tian stopped him.
"Let's go, there's more than one fertilizer plant in Jing City!"
The man seemed to have heard a joke, and then complained to the gatekeeper: "Uncle Qiu, you should wipe your eyes more carefully next time!"
"If you bring anyone in here again, I'll report you!"
cut!
Their director has been trying to find a way to cook food all day but has failed, so how can two students make it?
What a joke!
Tang Tian and Da Hu look younger than the other.
He thought he was a student.
"Tiantian, what should we do next?" Dahu frowned.
Tang Tian said: "Go to Beijing News!"
The editor-in-chief of Beijing News has extensive connections, and now they are short of vegetables. Her delivering them to their doorstep is like timely help!
At this moment, in the Beijing News, Yao Aiguo was complaining to his logistics director.
“Editor-in-chief, you asked me to do other things, but I really can’t do fresh vegetables!
There is a shortage of vegetables all over the city now, and they are almost impossible to get.
Even if you deduct all my bonus, I still can't get it! ”
The editor-in-chief was also worried because there were very few vegetables in the cafeteria and the employees were very dissatisfied.
Now they go to the vegetable company early every day to queue up, not only can they not buy anything, but they also have no energy at work.
What should I do if this continues?
"Editor-in-Chief, a female comrade named Tang Tian is here to see you."
Yao Aiguo was stunned. He had told Tang Tian to come to him if she had any difficulties, but it was just a polite remark.
Seeing Yao Aiguo's expression, the logistics director hesitated and said, "Editor-in-chief, are you here to find a way to get some vegetables?"
When the editor-in-chief heard this, he thought it was really possible!
"Editor-in-chief, it's too late for you to leave now." The logistics director reminded him.
There is no back door, so there is really no way to escape.
"You stay. If she ever mentions vegetables to me again, and I ask you for them, just say you don't have any!"
The logistics director nodded. He understood that leaders are always good people.
He came to be the evil guy.
"Please let her in!" The editor-in-chief sat down. After Tang Tian came in, he stood up and shook hands with her enthusiastically.
She also asked her secretary to pour tea for her and Dahu.
"Xiao Tang, what brings you here today? Are you encountering any difficulties?
Just say it!
I will definitely help if I can! ”
Tang Tian smiled and said, "There is something wrong. Isn't it that Beijing City is short of vegetables recently..."
Yao Aiguo interrupted her and said to the logistics director, "Old Liu, go and arrange for Comrade Xiao Tang to get two kilograms of vegetables!"
"Comrade Xiao Tang, don't complain about the small amount. Every unit is short of vegetables recently."
The logistics director said with a bitter face: "Editor-in-chief, I am also a good cook who can't cook without rice. Right now, the food for the cafeteria has not been settled. Let alone two catties, I can't even take out two taels!"
The editor-in-chief said with a sullen face: "That's your problem. I don't care. You have to squeeze out two kilograms of vegetables even if you have to!"
The logistics director was about to cry: "Editor-in-chief, even if you dismiss me, I can't make an extra two taels of vegetables!"
Tang Tian: “I have!”
"I can get a few trainloads of food."
Her words directly stopped the editor-in-chief from continuing to act.
Both he and the logistics director were a little overwhelmed.
"Comrade Xiao Tang, this is no joke."
Tang Tian: "I'm not kidding, after I knew that Beijing was short of vegetables, I immediately called our county's top leader and asked him to help mobilize our county's vegetable resources.
We can send a few train cars by rail.
But our county is far away, and we have to wait a few days for the distributed vegetables to arrive, by which time the vegetables should be wilted. ”
"But they will try to stock up on vegetables that last longer."
Don’t be afraid of being wilted!
Just have vegetables!
In fact, for such a big country, it is not impossible to produce the cuisine of Beijing alone.
It’s just that some places are far away, so the cost is higher. If the vegetables are sold at the original price, the company will lose money. If they are sold at a high price, the people will complain.
Therefore, vegetable companies will only allocate vegetables from nearby areas.
However, the amount allocated locally cannot be increased.
But these units are different!
They are not short of money, they can buy vegetables at a premium, but they don’t have the means to allocate them from farther places!
Comrade Xiao Tang is really a timely relief!
Yao Aiguo felt extremely guilty. Not only did he think that the other person was trying to extort money from him, but he also... was acting with her!
Compared to Comrade Tang Tian's awareness, he is really...
The old comrade's face turned red with embarrassment.
"Comrade Tang Tian, I don't know how to thank you!"
Tang Tian smiled and said, "Why are you saying thank you or not? You didn't ask for it for nothing. I was just running errands."
"Why don't you invite the editors-in-chief who came to my house last time to come to your place, and also invite comrades from Mass Literature and several publishing houses and printing factories to have a meeting.
Let’s discuss how to distribute it.
Your family can’t even finish a few train cars of vegetables, and they will go bad if left for too long…”
Since it’s a favor, she should sell it to a few more stores!
If she wants to open a bookstore in the future, she will have to establish good relationships with these units.
