Secretary Chen saw that she was still standing and pointed to the stool in front of her. "Sit down."
Shen An Nian didn't dare to disobey the leader's order and could only sit down obediently.
Secretary Chen asked her, "Don't you work at the mooncake factory? How do you have time to research these hot sauces?"
"I enjoy cooking, and it doesn't take much time to just make some modifications to these hot sauces."
"You, little comrade, are quite diligent."
"Secretary, please don't misunderstand me. I have no intention of interfering in this matter. I am just giving Captain Huang a suggestion. I will not be involved in the later construction and management of the factory."
"If you're not participating, then why are you running around all the time? I heard you even managed to secure the order?"
Shen An Nian pondered for a moment before saying, "Last time I escorted goods to Heng City, I brought two bottles of hot sauce with me.
Manager Yang tasted it and said it tasted good, but at that time I was not sure whether I could build a factory, so I did not finalize the cooperation with Manager Yang.
But I've already made an agreement with him that I'll definitely contact him once we finalize the factory plan."
Secretary Chen had no idea what to do with this energetic young person and had no way to say anything to her.
People work for the collective, and if you criticize her for this, it would be like repaying kindness with enmity.
She just threw the problem to herself.
The supply of pork is not large to begin with. Although the government canteen has the priority purchasing right, all the major factories are scrambling for the meat. If the government canteen asks for more, how can others not object?
The commune once encouraged the brigades to raise more pigs, with each family having a target of one pig and three chickens.
But farmers can’t even feed themselves, so how can they have extra food to feed pigs?
Each brigade raised five or six pigs. Apart from what was handed over to the state, each person only got a few pounds of meat.
To open this chili factory, he has to compete with others for meat, but where can he get it?
“Your idea is good, but where will the pork and chicken come from?
The bigger the factory, the more pork it needs. Right now, there's not enough pork for the town to distribute, and the supply and marketing cooperative has no meat for us."
"Secretary, have you ever thought about filling this gap?"
“Why haven’t I thought about it? But you also know that farmers are poor and have no food to feed pigs.
Two years ago, the commune encouraged everyone to raise pigs. Each pig weighed 70 kilograms and was given to the state, and the rest was kept by them. But still, no one could afford to raise pigs.
This is a difficult problem.
She originally thought that Secretary Chen could come up with a solution to this problem, but she didn't expect that even he couldn't think of any good solution.
Shen Annian lowered his eyelids and thought carefully before speaking.
"Secretary, you are right. Raising pigs is indeed very costly, so we must collectively establish a pig farm.
Although the pig farm's consumption is still very high, if it is distributed to each villager, the amount is not that much.
As long as we divide the work in the fields properly, we can coordinate it by arranging people to collect grass for the pigs when the time comes."
Secretary Chen looked at her for a long time without saying a word. This young comrade just kept thinking.
They just said they wanted to open a chili factory, and now they say they want to open a pig farm. Can they handle it?
Besides, having a lot of people is not enough. The key is that they don’t have feed.
Pigs cannot just eat pig grass, they also have to eat rice bran, otherwise how will the piglets grow?
"Run a pig farm?"
"Yes, not only in the town, but even in the county, the supply of pork is insufficient.
If our pig farm is established, we can not only supply pork to the chili factory, but also to the town and the county seat, which will increase the income of the commune."
Oops, I'm a little moved by what you said.
Secretary Chen suppressed his eagerness and said, "The piglets are still young and can only eat pig grass. When they grow up, they need to be fed with rice bran. How can they grow fat if they only eat pig grass?"
"We can feed soybeans to fatten them, catch shrimps, crabs and snails, and collect algae and duckweed from the river. These are all rich in protein and can help increase weight."
Huang Changzheng listened to them for a long time and finally found an opportunity to interrupt.
"Is duckweed useful for this?"
"Of course. Duckweed is rich in protein and can be used to feed fish, chickens and ducks."
"But there aren't that many duckweeds. How can we feed them to the pigs?"
"We can force it to grow. Every village has ditches dug. We can force it to grow in the ditches when it's time. This thing grows very fast, so there's no worry about a shortage of supply."
After listening to her analysis, it seems that running a pig farm is not that difficult.
No, there are still difficulties to be solved.
Where do they get so many piglets?
Regarding this question, Shen Annian could only look at Secretary Chen.
Secretary Chen was troubled. "Let me handle it?"
Shen Annian nodded repeatedly, "Yeah."
Secretary Chen wondered why he had such a headache.
His workload suddenly increased a lot.
"Chengcheng, I'll think of a way."
Shen Annian: "Secretary, there is another problem. We need to build a large pig farm. It is different from a small-scale breeding. Scientific feeding is required.
Should we send someone to the pig farm for internship to learn how to raise pigs?"
Well, this is another task assigned to him.
Secretary Chen was happy to accept the task, but the problem was that he was powerless.
There is only a meat processing plant in the county town, and no large pig farms.
There are several large pig farms in the provincial capital, but why should people allow them to go there to study?
"Shen Zhiqing, your suggestion is very good. We should indeed send people to study, but I really can't do anything about it.
There are a few pig farms in the provincial capital, but I don't know anyone there, so I can't send you there to learn."
