Huo Junshan nodded: "Okay, I'll discuss it with Yang Dasheng again another day."
"Are these the best-selling items over there?"
Yun Ningyan smiled and raised her eyebrows triumphantly: "Of course, that's where I'm from!"
Huo Junshan gently touched the tip of her nose: "You are mine."
The cannery was built up day by day.
Huo Junshan prepared the large pot, large basin, tools, and water tank!
The brick flooring in each room is almost finished.
Everything else is ready, except for the fruit.
Once the fruit arrives, production can begin here.
We need to find a way to get the fruit from the space.
He went to the commune, found Yang Dasheng, and asked Yang Dasheng to find a small truck.
I also bought two larger scales, for when I need to get reimbursed.
He drove the car to a deserted place.
I weighed all the fruits.
After noting the weight, he swung his hand and loaded the fruit onto the car.
He grabbed a piece of cloth from somewhere and covered it up, then dragged the fruit toward the group.
The commune members saw a truck driving towards their brigade from afar.
Those who were unemployed huddled together chatting.
Seeing Huo Junshan drive back in such a big car, with lots of fruit inside.
Someone shouted, "The third son of the Huo family is back! What's in the car?"
"I see it! It's fruit, peaches! And other fruits I don't recognize."
"From now on, don't call me 'Third Brother' anymore, call me 'Factory Director'."
Everyone laughed and joked as Huo Junshan drove his truck past.
They all felt very reassured, because their brigade now had a factory.
If things go well in the future, we'll hire more people.
Many of them might also be employees of that factory.
Huo Junshan had the fruit unloaded and placed in the fruit storage warehouse.
When the accountant made the entries, why did Huo Jun give him the pre-written receipts?
"Uncle Yang, remember this, I will personally handle the arrangements for this fruit from now on."
Yang Daqing nodded: "Okay!"
We have the fruit, and we have the tools.
There was also the issue of firewood. Huo Junshan asked the brigade leader about the firewood problem, and the brigade leader agreed to go up the mountain to collect it.
A few people were left in the factory to finish up the remaining work.
Everyone else went down to the foot of the mountain to gather firewood.
Huo Junshan found several dead and withered trees and chopped them down with an axe.
Cut it into sections.
The workers then hauled it back.
We'll use firewood for now, but once we have coal, we'll use coal.
Gathering firewood on the mountain every day is no good.
That evening, the brigade leader came over.
"Third brother, when do you plan to open your business?"
"Should we invite the county leaders and commune leaders over when we open for business?"
Huo Junshan nodded.
"I'll go to the county tomorrow to find those people, invite them over, have a lively gathering, and have a meal."
"I just don't know if they'll come?"
The captain chuckled and said, "Even if they don't come, they'll send someone to check on things, since it concerns their interests."
"When you officially open for business, what day do you plan to do it? Should we set off some firecrackers to celebrate?"
Huo Junshan nodded: "Okay, I'll buy them all tomorrow."
"The official start is set for the day after tomorrow, March 19th! What do you think?"
The captain laughed and said, "Great! This sounds like a wonderful life!"
Huo Changgen listened with great excitement; his son's factory had started operating.
From now on, he will be the factory director's father in name and in fact.
"Third brother, doesn't the factory need a security guard? Have you thought about who to hire?"
"Why don't we let Dad go? I've thought about it and he'll go help out."
Huo Junshan refused.
“Dad, you should take good care of the two children at home. Ningning may not be home every day.”
"Just forget about it. I've already decided who to give this job to."
Yun Ningyan smiled.
"You wouldn't be thinking of bringing Wei Xiangdong over, would you?"
"It would be more appropriate to send him to the city. This is our own territory, and there shouldn't be any problems here."
"It's different in the city."
Huo Junshan nodded: "That's true, it's not appropriate for him to be here. Let me think about it some more!"
"Since no one has chosen yet, let Dad go and look around for a few days first."
After the group discussed and agreed on their plan, the team leader left.
Huo Junshan went to the county early the next morning.
The commune people promised to come over then.
The person from the county said they would send someone over at that time.
This support extends beyond Huo Junshan's family.
Others are also starting one after another.
Their staff is too busy.
Huo Junshan then approached Yang Dasheng, and the two discussed the matter of the garment factory in the city.
When it comes to the issue of guarding the factory, he really doesn't have a suitable candidate right now.
His father was originally the most suitable, but now there are two children in the family.
The fifth brother is a bit young; he can't manage such a big factory by himself!
There was no resolution to this matter.
He took the things and went back.
He brought back a lot more rock sugar when he went back.
I went to the glass factory again and asked them to send the bottles over as soon as possible.
It doesn't look like much, but there's actually a lot to prepare for.
On March 18th, Huo Junshan held a meeting at the factory to arrange the work for the next day in advance.
Everyone is responsible for their assigned area and what they are responsible for, all of which is planned in advance and overseen by specific team leaders.
This day was March 19th, the opening day of their cannery.
