Jiang Yan was a little nervous, worried that showing too much would expose herself, especially since this was an age where spies were everywhere.
Sensing Jiang Yan's emotions, Lu Yunsheng reached out under the table, held Jiang Yan's hand and gently stroked it, telling her that he was always there.
Jiang Yan would also hold his hand and feel a little more at ease.
Sheng Pinghua also understood. He knew that Jiang Yan was content with the status quo and did not want to be in the spotlight.
So he quickly expressed his position.
"Don't worry, this matter will not be publicized. As long as you don't want to, our group will always support you, and no one can plot against you." He hoped that Jiang Yan would stay in the second group forever.
"Thank you, Political Commissar."
Jiang Yan was very happy. Judging from their performance so far, Sheng Pinghua and Lu Haishou were still trustworthy.
Seeing Jiang Yan's expression change, Sheng Pinghua smiled helplessly. It was the first time he met someone so capable yet not pursuing fame and fortune.
With a sigh in his heart, Sheng Pinghua stood up and said goodbye, "Okay, it's a rare vacation, I won't disturb you two."
After sending the person to the door, Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Yunsheng took her into his arms and comforted her: "Wife, there is no need to deliberately hide your talent. Your husband can protect you, and the Lu family can protect you."
Lu Yunsheng's words stunned Jiang Yan. She reached out and hugged Lu Yunsheng, and Lu Yunsheng also hugged her in his arms.
Jiang Yan murmured, "I don't want to leave you, it's fine like this."
Lu Yunsheng tightened his arms and said, "It's up to you."
the next day.
Jiang Yan got up early and went to the feed farm to find out the situation.
Before I got close, I saw villagers in dark clothes from afar, carrying shoulder poles, pushing wheelbarrows, and driving ox carts and horse carts.
Without exception.
The trucks were piled high with all kinds of straw and fodder, which were the raw materials needed by feed factories nowadays.
Jiang Yan walked over quickly and heard the villagers talking.
"The army is really good. They actually collect these useless waste straws. Isn't this just giving us money?"
"It's a pity that we harvested it too late. Last year's rice straw was basically burned in the fields. That's all money!"
"What are you afraid of? I asked the little soldier last time, and he said that the feed factory has been collecting straw for a long time. This year, we should make a good plan and collect all the straw in the fields and bring it here to sell."
"Hey, have you heard? This is a feed mill. The grass we sell will be made into feed. Feeding pigs with this feed will make them grow fast."
"Is it true or false?"
"Can we buy this kind of feed? If we don't eat grain, the village can feed more pigs and make more money from selling them during the New Year."
"I don't think so. I saw a car from the meat processing plant last time. It seems that all the feed from this factory is for the meat processing plant. We definitely can't use it."
After listening to everyone's discussion, Jiang Yan walked over and asked curiously, "Uncle, how much is this straw per pound?"
Seeing that the person asking the question was a little girl, a kind-looking old man said, "It's one cent per pound. We have sold tens of thousands of pounds in our village."
"Little girl, if you have any wheat straw or rice straw in your village, hurry up and bring it here to sell."
"We have the last batch today. Once we sell out, you can check out. We have several hundred dollars."
"I see. I'll go to the front to ask about the situation. Uncle, you can talk slowly."
Jiang Yan walked to the front of the team. At the entrance of the feed factory, soldiers were weighing the fodder, which had been bundled in advance by the village.
Each bundle weighs fifty kilograms.
However, before selling, the feed factory will still weigh it briefly.
"A total of 600 kilograms. Please sign here to confirm. Which village are you from? Do you want to pay by account or in cash?"
There are two types of people who come to sell straw.
One is that villagers bring rice straw and stalks stored in their homes, which are usually weighed on the spot and then settled.
Another type is the collective straw from the village to sell. The quantity is relatively large, so people usually choose to keep a record of the amount and then settle the bill after all the straw is sold.
Hearing the question, a middle-aged man in black clothes came up and signed his name on the paper.
"Hello, young comrade. We are from Nanqiao Village, the third squad of the fifth brigade of Shanglin Commune. I am Zhang Ruidong, the village party secretary. This is the last batch of straw for the first half of the year. Please settle the bill first. We will come back to sell fresh straw after the rice is harvested."
"Okay, Secretary. Please come with me to settle the bill. Do you have the official seal with you?"
"I have it."
Zhang Ruidong nodded repeatedly. The feed factory told them this when they first started selling fodder.
If you choose to keep accounts, the village party secretary must personally bring the official seal and leave a stamp at the feed factory. When settling the bill, bring the official seal again. The two must be compared to confirm that the official seal is correct before the bill can be settled.
Otherwise, settle it on the spot.
It's not just this one time. Almost all collective villages that sell straw keep their seals, so you don't need to bring the seal when you sell it next time. You only need to come once for settlement.
The soldier handed the list to the accountant and walked back.
The soldier sitting behind the small table looked at Zhang Ruidong, asked which village it was, and then took out the account book.
"Including today's 600 kilograms, Nanqiao Village has sold a total of 23,000 kilograms of straw, with a total price of 230 yuan. If you confirm that everything is correct, please sign here and stamp the official seal, and I will settle the bill for you."
"Yes, that's right."
Zhang Ruidong nodded repeatedly, quickly signed the account book, and then stamped it with the official seal, feeling very happy.
Unexpectedly, the village could earn an extra 230 yuan.
We must harvest the rice straw, wheat straw and corn straw well this year and sell them for a few thousand yuan.
The village became prosperous.
After confirming that the seal was correct, the soldier counted out 23 Great Unity notes from an iron box guarded by two fully armed soldiers behind him and handed them to Zhang Ruidong.
"Thanks."
Zhang Ruidong was very happy to get the money, and the villagers who came with him were also very happy, as they also had a share of the 230 yuan, and they would share the money at the end of the year.
As soon as he turned around, Zhang Ruidong saw Jiang Yan coming and hurried over to say hello. Jiang Yan didn't expect to see Zhang Ruidong here.
"Secretary Zhang is here to sell straw, too."
"Yes." Zhang Ruidong replied with a smile, and then asked curiously: "Comrade Jiang Yan came to work in the feed factory?"
"Come and see."
Jiang Yan didn't know how to answer, so she just said something perfunctorily.
Zhang Ruidong inquired, "Comrade Jiang Yan, you work here. Have you heard from your superiors whether we can sell some of this feed to our village? I heard that pigs grow faster if they eat this."
"If we can really feed the pigs, each household in the village will be able to get more food and won't have to go hungry anymore."
This is not a secret, Jiang Yan already had such a plan.
So he answered:
"Of course we can sell it to the village, but the feed the factory produces now is not enough. Apart from what is consumed by our own pig farm, most of it is given to the meat processing plant."
"But after the autumn harvest, when there is fresh fodder, the factory should consider supplying it to nearby villages. You can just buy it from the factory then."
