Chapter 41 Going to the Countryside to Receive Goods



These are very serious words. If you can do it, do it. If you can’t, leave.

In order to let capable people take up their posts, the workers’ food problem must be solved.

Workers must never be allowed to work on an empty stomach.

After getting the two people's guarantee, Director Zhang let them go back.

Zhang Weiguo was left alone.

"Weiguo, you will need to work harder this year," said Zhang Weimin.

"Director, I will definitely find a way to solve it, but the current situation is not optimistic."

It will definitely be harder to collect supplies this year than last year, and power will now be more relaxed.

As long as supplies can be obtained, conditions in all aspects should be relaxed.

"As long as you can get food, I will give you the maximum power and provide you with whatever you want," said Zhang Weimin.

"I'll go to the countryside to see what the situation is and ask them to give me a certificate first," said Zhang Weiguo.

Zhang Weiguo returned to the third purchasing department and arranged for the buyers to go to the countryside to purchase as soon as possible, and the prices could be increased appropriately.

Now that the Chinese New Year has just passed, supplies can still be purchased as long as the price is right.

We should collect whatever supplies we can in this first month. If we don’t take advantage of this period to complete the tasks of the previous months, it will be difficult to complete this year’s tasks.

Let’s all go collect the supplies. If there are any problems, Zhang Weiguo will work with the factory to resolve them.

The buyers all set out with their tasks.

Zhang Weiguo took the certificate approved by Director Zhang and got some grain coupons and meat coupons.

Zhang Weiguo rode his bicycle to the countryside.

Zhang Weiguo did not go to the commune, but went directly to the production team under the commune.

Although the road is not easy to walk on, it is not a problem for Caizi.

Zhang Weiguo came to a brigade.

I found out the address of the village chief, went there and produced the certificate.

"I am the chief of the third purchasing department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. This time I came to collect some food from the villagers," said Zhang Weiguo.

When the village chief saw Zhang Weiguo's son, he knew that he was a leader. Ordinary people couldn't even buy a bicycle, so who would ride a motorcycle?

They immediately gave him a warm welcome, allowed Zhang Weiguo to enter the house first, and then arranged for someone to notify the villagers.

Soon the villagers came to the village chief's house with some eggs, bacon and mushrooms.

Some villagers exchanged their coupons for food, some for meat, and some sold them directly for money.

The price Zhang Weiguo gave them was 10% higher than the market price, and they were very willing to sell their things to Zhang Weiguo.

Without proof, they didn't dare to sell things at will. What's more, Zhang Weiguo was obviously a leader and offered a high price, so of course they were willing to sell.

Seeing that the price offered by Zhang Weiguo was high, some villagers who had not planned to sell also went home to get their things to sell.

These villagers didn't have much, just two chickens and a few hundred eggs.

Zhang Weiguo also said that he also collects ginseng, and if there is ginseng, it can be sold for money. Ten-year-old ginseng is ten yuan, and a hundred-year-old ginseng is a hundred yuan.

Ginseng is paid according to age.

When the villagers heard about this, they also started collecting ginseng. One family happened to have a 52-year-old ginseng, and they were planning to make wine with it, but they hadn't made the wine yet.

All the grain was kept, and there was no extra grain to make wine, so this project was stopped. Now that I heard that I could sell it for money, I went home and got it directly.

Coming back a while later, Zhang Weiguo saw that it was a 52-year-old ginseng, well preserved and intact, with no damaged roots.

Zhang Weiguo directly gave the villager 52 yuan, which made the villager very happy. These 52 yuan were their income for several years.

This also made other villagers very envious, and they decided to keep the ginseng instead of using it to make wine, as selling it could make much more money than making wine.

Zhang Weiguo discovered that these villagers really had good things in their homes, but they just didn’t know about it.

Zhang Weiguo came out of this village and went directly to the next village.

This time, Zhang Weiguo did not look for the village chief, but planned to collect the money directly from the villagers' homes.

This way, even if you sell some good stuff, others won’t know about it and won’t be envied.

Zhang Weiguo knocked on doors one by one, telling them that he was the section chief of a steel mill and that he was there to purchase food.

When the villagers saw the gift, they knew that Zhang Weiguo was a big leader, so they sold their things to him directly without even asking for any proof.

In this way, Zhang Weiguo spent half a day, and in addition to purchasing food, he also received four Qing Dynasty Qianlong enameled bowls with flowers, birds, fish and insects. Each bowl cost five yuan, and the four bowls cost twenty yuan.

This is Zhang Weiguo’s biggest gain this time.

Zhang Weiguo knew that the villagers had no idea that this thing was valuable, so they just treated it as an ordinary bowl, just with a prettier painting on it.

If it weren’t for Zhang Weiguo’s sharp eyes, he wouldn’t have discovered this treasure.

Zhang Weiguo plans to visit the countryside more often in the future, where he can really find good things.

These four bowls are a set from an official kiln. It is not known whether Emperor Qianlong used them, but they were definitely from the palace.

I don’t know how it came out. Maybe it was stolen and sold by a eunuch.

Now it belongs to Zhang Weiguo, so Zhang Weiguo has to make up a good story about it to increase the value of this thing.

This set of bowls was used by Emperor Qianlong. After all, no one can confirm this fact, as it was secretly brought out and sold privately by eunuchs.

After this story, the value of this bowl increased tenfold.

The bowl that was originally worth ten thousand suddenly became worth one hundred thousand.

This is the first set of valuable antiques that Zhang Weiguo has received, it’s really great.

Zhang Weiguo quickly put the thing into the rosewood box and then put it into the space.

In the future, these four bowls will be sold for several million. This is a set, which is more valuable than a single one. There is also a wonderful story behind it, and finally a Huanghuali box.

After all this, you won’t believe that this is worthless.

Would worthless things be put in a Huanghuali box?

Zhang Weiguo spent most of the day visiting three villages. Except for the first village where he spent less time, he visited every household in the other two villages.

Zhang Weiguo spent more than 50 yuan on chicken, eggs, fish, bacon and other things.

Zhang Weiguo bought the bowl and ginseng with his own money.

Zhang Weiguo packed up his things and went straight back to the steel rolling mill.

Give these Dingxi to Liu Wen for statistics.

Zhang Weiguo asked her to count the supplies of each buyer today. He wanted to see how much they could buy in a day.

Zhang Weiguo could receive things worth fifty yuan a day, and he didn't believe that they would not receive anything in a day.

Of course, bacon still accounts for the majority of it.

Even without things like bacon, it's still possible to collect eight or nine yuan worth of supplies a day.

They have been on the run for so long and have their own channels. Zhang Weiguo doesn't want to believe that they will behave themselves.

Liu Wen knew what Zhang Weiguo meant. Zhang Weiguo received so many things on his first trip to the countryside.

If others did not receive something, it means they did not complete it at all. Liu Wen would definitely say something about such people.
