Chapter 151 Debt Collector 2 The manuscript was retained, and Zhou Juan looked delighted...
The workshop director of the non-staple food factory was named Gao. He was in his forties, tall and thin, wore glasses, had a sweet smile on his face, and looked very kind.
He warmly invited the father and daughter to join him for a tour of the production line. As they toured, he proudly introduced it, "This is the only aluminum bag vacuum packaging workshop in the province. It's an assembly line independently developed by the young people in our factory, but the cost is a bit high, so we're currently only using it to produce high-end foods. These are all limited editions, but thankfully, they have a long shelf life, so they can be stored well into the summer. It would be great if we could get the cost down. Then we could try salted goose, braised duck, and roast chicken. But it depends on the scale of the farm. If we can't supply them, we'll have to continue selling them in limited quantities."
Yao Zhizhi was quite curious: "Is the supply of poultry from the farm unstable?"
"Yes, if they're healthy, that's easy. But if they suddenly get sick and die en masse, then it's no good. We have to bury them all together. We'd rather not eat them than make them sick." Director Gao, still quite responsible, sighed, "Just like before the Lunar New Year, we were planning to produce 30,000 ducks, but sadly, duck plague hit, and the losses were heavy. In the end, we collected some ducks from the commune below and only produced a few thousand."
So that's how it was. Yao Zhizhi didn't quite understand: "Isn't there a dedicated veterinarian at the farm?"
"Yes, he was originally an experienced veterinarian, but he suffered a stroke, so a student was temporarily asked to take care of him for two months, and the result was... Speaking of which, practice makes perfect. It's useless to talk about it on paper. The student ranked first in all the academic subjects, but he was at a loss when it came to the real-life drill." Director Gao sighed. Alas, it takes time to train young people. There has been a lack of young talents in the past few years. It would be great if the college entrance examination could be resumed. Agricultural colleges could recruit more students. There is an urgent need for fresh blood everywhere.
Yao Zhizhi suddenly realized that it was not surprising that the accident was caused by a greenhorn.
Xiao Jin has been here for more than a year, and he is still struggling to resolve family disputes. He is however enthusiastic about catching thieves.
Maybe it was installed in the wrong place.
Just like this person who caused the duck plague, it would be a good idea to let him become an examination expert.
After visiting the aluminum bag vacuum packaging workshop, Director Gao took Yao Zhizhi and her daughter to other workshops. The dust from making pastries was very high, and everyone's head and face were covered in dust. Fortunately, everyone was wearing hats and employee uniforms, so they took them off and dusted off the dust after work and the room was clean.
There was a meat sauce workshop among them, and Yao Zhizhi was almost dizzy from the fragrance.
She was a little curious: "Can the employees here resist eating it? It smells so good."
"Oh, how could you not help it? Our workshop has a strict supervision and reporting mechanism. Anyone who steals food will lose his job once reported. No tricks. But I also know how greedy they are, so every month there is a can of meat sauce in the welfare. Isn't this the best of both worlds?" Director Gao was quite optimistic and proud of his approach of combining leniency and strictness.
Yao Zhizhi thought this was a good idea, so she asked, "Can we give the production model an extra can?"
"Oh, I haven't thought of this. We can consider it and do it this year." Director Gao was very happy. It's great that young people still have ideas.
Yao Zhizhi didn't expect that the director was so willing to listen to opinions. That was great.
Quickly take out the recipe in your hand and let him think about it.
Director Gao reviewed them and eliminated three. "Our workshop technology currently doesn't allow us to produce these three. The other three are OK. I can give them a try."
"Okay, then let's try these seven first." Yao Zhizhi put away the other three recipes. Before coming here, she didn't know the current level of technology. After observing around, she had a rough idea in her mind and knew that Director Gao was not talking nonsense.
Director Gao happily accepted the formula and reminded him, "I've asked the factory manager about the dividend model you mentioned on the phone, and it's not allowed under policy. I don't want you to make a wasted trip, so in addition to buying out your formula outright, I've also negotiated an alternative profit model for you. Please consider it."
That's fine. Yao Zhizhi knew that if she approached the food factory for cooperation now, it would most likely be a one-time deal - selling the recipe.
After all, policy issues are something that individuals cannot change.
However, she didn't expect Director Gao to have another surprise, so she asked curiously, "Are you willing to train employees for me?"
Director Gao smiled and said, "That's right. You're really smart. This is the only solution we can think of. For now, these are just a few recipes, and it's hard to say whether they can actually be produced, but our factory director has agreed. As long as you don't mind the low wages of apprentices, once the research and development is successful, our factory can provide you with eight to twelve apprentice positions. Considering our factory is relatively profitable and has vacant dormitories, you don't have to worry about the accommodation of these apprentices. As for food, there is a cafeteria in the factory, and you only need to pay some food coupons and money every month. What do you think?"
That's perfect. It's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
Anyway, Yao Zhizhi is not optimistic about the non-staple food factory in Yicheng, so naturally she needs to train her own employees so that when the factory over there really goes bankrupt, she can act quickly, accurately and ruthlessly.
As for dividends, that is secondary. There are still many formulas in her system, and learning a skill is quite cost-effective.
However, she still made another request: "Director Gao, if your factory really needs to eliminate a production line, remember to give me priority."
Director Gao smiled and said, "That's fine. Don't worry, we're willing to work with you long-term. As long as you can come up with something new every now and then, we'll give you priority."
"Okay, then let me ask, are there any requirements for apprentices? For example, is it necessary to have a city household registration?" Yao Zhizhi still wanted to ask for clarification.
Director Gao smiled and said, "That's not necessary. They're just apprentices, not counted towards our factory's staffing. You can recruit people from the countryside, too. After they finish their apprenticeship, it's up to you what to do with them."
"Okay, thank you Director Gao, let's sign the contract." Yao Zhizhi was satisfied.
After signing the contract and receiving the money, she handed the formula to Director Gao and went back happily.
Unexpectedly, my father was even more excited than her. He kept talking about the little stars and the little moon all the way. He missed them so much after just one day of not seeing them. No wonder they say that generations apart are closer.
As soon as he got home, Yao Jingzong took the two little kids to his side, leaving neither one for Yao Zhizhi.
In order to breastfeed, Yao Zhizhi had to run to Qi Tiao Hutong to "snatch" the baby, which was really funny.
*
As for apprentices, she planned to recruit a group of female comrades from the countryside.
This has two advantages. First, after graduation, if you cannot settle in the city temporarily, you can continue to farm in the countryside for a while and wait for her to make other arrangements.
Secondly, there is no shortage of opportunities for lesbians in cities, but those in rural areas may cherish the opportunity to go out and see the world more.
So she handed this matter over to Zhao Maimiao and Ding Can, and asked them to use their business trips to help her find twelve female t comrades in the countryside.
Zhao Maimiao was curious: "Should we let your third sister go?"
Yao Ningning? Yao Zhizhi hadn't heard such a name for a long time. She shook her head and said, "She's not my third sister."
Zhao Maimiao quickly covered her mouth, she said the wrong thing.
I had to change the subject: "Then...then are you not considering any of the relatives from the Yao family?"
"Don't consider it. Find some people who are as down-to-earth and capable as you. Don't find those who fish for three days and dry the net for two days." Yao Zhizhi has high requirements and plans to screen the people after recruiting them.
Zhao Maimiao understood and quickly went with Ding Can to make arrangements.
The two of them are planning to go to Inner Mongolia, as the market there is still blank.
Before leaving, I went to the countryside to recruit a few female comrades to work as apprentices.
At work in the afternoon, Yao Zhizhi typed back all the manuscripts from Ye Zheng and Zhang Sanxiang.
What the hell is this? It's bullshit.
Both of them lowered their heads and said nothing.
Yao Zhizhi was very angry: "Ye Zheng, I've read the school magazine you edited, and I've also read the news releases in the newspapers. You're not at this level. What, are you trying to play the Hidden Edge game with me? I'm telling you, it's useless. If you can't submit a satisfactory manuscript to me before the end of the day, then you can leave."
"I was recruited by the president, you can't fire me." Ye Zheng hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and wanted to hold on.
Yao Zhizhi sneered, "Just because I don't argue with the president doesn't mean I can't. Believe it or not, if I write a letter of denunciation to Director Yuan, you'll be kicked out immediately!"
Ye Zheng sighed silently: "Okay, I'll try."
Zhang Sanxiang simply threw in the towel: "Editor-in-Chief Yao, I really can't write this. Can you give me a few more months to learn?"
"Someone told me that you wouldn't be a drag. How come you can't pass the first test after joining the company?" Yao Zhizhi didn't insist on them writing articles, she just wanted to see how capable they were.
Don't push anything in her direction.
One Zhou Juan is disgusting enough, and here come two more trash?
Don’t you see how much sales Ren Dingcan and Zhao Maimiao boosted for the magazine as soon as they arrived? They are both down-to-earth people who get things done. Otherwise, would she dare to recruit them?
It's really unreasonable.
Zhang Sanxiang had no choice but to go out like a loser.
Seeing the two being scolded, Zhou Juan was very happy. She quickly stopped the proofreading work, took out paper and pen, and tried to write one herself.
What if it works? Maybe I can leave the proofreading team and help Xiao Jiang.
Being an editor's assistant sounds like it has more prospects than being a proofreader, right?
She racked her brains very hard and came up with one.
I handed it to Yao Zhizhi before the other two did. After reading it, Yao Zhizhi felt it was unsatisfactory. She circled a few points and asked her to revise it: "Say less flattering words, write more from the perspective of ordinary people, and write something they want to read."
Zhou Juan curled her lips and went out unhappily.
As for Ye Zheng and Zhang Sanxiang, they each submitted a manuscript before leaving get off work. Ye Zheng's level was indeed good. Yao Zhizhi circled a few points that needed to be revised, and then kept it after some further polishing.
Zhang Sanxiang's answer still didn't work, so she gave him one last chance. If it still didn't work tomorrow, he shouldn't come.
After get off work, Zhang Sanxiang complained to Zhang Datong, "Brother, didn't you say that Editor-in-Chief Yao was easy to talk to?"
"Yes, she is very easy to talk to people who are serious about their work. Okay, stop being lazy and think about it carefully when you get back." Ever since Zhang Datong knew that the red envelope gave him the highest basic amount, he felt so grateful in his heart that he didn't want to say a bad word about Yao Zhizhi.
As for Ye Zheng, she was delighted to receive a warning look from Zhou Juan because her manuscript was retained.
Sure enough, the president was right. Zhou Juan is the most jealous of others. You have to be careful.
