It was still early, so Ji Xia called Qiao San aside and said, "I heard you're originally from Shanghai. How did you end up in Bing County?"
When Qiao San heard this, he knew that his opportunity had come. He found it difficult to suppress his excitement. "To be honest with Sister Xia, Cheng F is not good. If I hadn't escaped from Shanghai, I wouldn't have been able to save my life.
Some of my family members went overseas. My father's family was born to a concubine, and when the time came, they were abandoned by the first wife, so they had no choice but to fend for themselves."
"What did your ancestors do in Shanghai?" Ji Xia asked.
Only then did Ji Xia know that Qiao San's ancestor was actually Zeng Guofan's son-in-law and Li Hongzhang's right-hand man. He once ran an arsenal for the late Qing Dynasty, but the family business was textile.
Ji Xia had seen Qiao San's abilities and had tried him out for a long time, so she also needed her own team. Therefore, she said, "After this mission is completed, you will wait for me in Bing County. You will temporarily advance the wages of these people, and I will return them to you after we meet up in Bing County."
"If I say I have to pay it back, Sister Xia will be too formal!" Qiao San could no longer suppress his inner excitement. What did Sister Xia mean by letting him advance the money? It meant that she treated him as her own.
He became Sister Xia's own man!
What are the basic qualities required to become a successful businessman?
vision!
The reason why Qiao San was able to control the entire black market in Bing County in such an era was that he had no one above him, and he could avoid any trouble. This was all thanks to his good judgment of people.
He had long seen that Ji Xia was extraordinary, and had been being humble all along in order to catch Ji Xia's eye.
Now, he is halfway to success, how can he not be happy?
Ji Xia also meant this!
Although she had long expected that Qiao San would not refuse, she was still very satisfied with Qiao San's reaction. She was impatient to find a new subordinate, which would not only take time but also be very energy-consuming.
At around ten o'clock in the evening, He Wanqing went to find Xu Sandang.
These days, Xu Sandang has fully demonstrated the Bing County spirit and has been working overtime at the county party committee. In addition to him, there is also He Wenbin. The time is tight and the tasks are heavy. Especially after hearing He Wanqing say that the production line is about to arrive, they dare not relax.
Every minute wasted is a loss to the country.
The vast majority of people of this era are very pure and attach great importance to national interests. They can suffer losses for themselves, but they will never let the country suffer losses.
Not only were the lights in Xu Sandang's office on, but almost half of the lights in the county party committee compound were on. When He Wanqing passed by the door, she heard them discussing the project.
When Xu Sandang first heard that it was a sanitary napkin project, his facial expression exploded. He and He Wenbin actually found a way to get his wife to go to the Friendship Store and spend a lot of money to buy a pack of sanitary napkins.
Without trying it out, just opening it and taking a look, the wives of the two men would not give in and insisted that their husbands must build the sanitary napkin line no matter what.
Under the leadership of their wives, all the female family members in the compound joined in supporting the sanitary napkin production line.
After using sanitary napkins, who would still want to use a menstrual belt + wood ash, or a menstrual belt + toilet paper?
The toilet paper was as rough as tiles.
But the sanitary napkins sold at the Friendship Store were out of reach. A pack of 16 pieces cost 70 cents, more expensive than pork. In an era when people could not even fill their stomachs, pork was such a luxury.
Not to mention spending money on sanitary napkins.
If we could build our own production line, sanitary napkins would definitely not be so expensive.
But Xu Santang and He Wenbin are not stupid. No matter how cheap it is, this thing is still a consumable. Even if a pack costs only 30 cents, not many people are willing to buy it.
However, Ji Xia still gave them a way out, which was to find the exit.
The production line that Ji Xia brought out was very complete, from the production of raw materials such as fluff pulp to the subsequent hot pressing process, all were fully automatic production lines.
The testing equipment is also complete.
The production line is divided into two types: day use and night use, and the sanitary napkins with wings are currently the world's leading design.
Sanitary napkins are already very popular in foreign countries, especially in developed countries. Historically, the first sanitary napkin production line imported into China was introduced in 1982, and it was a straight strip type.
It was not until 1993 that Anle launched sanitary napkins with wings and a side leakage prevention design.
The sanitary napkin production line that Ji Xia brought out can be said to be the most advanced production line in later generations.
If the products are not easy to sell domestically, then there will be no worries about exporting them. This place is very close to Bing County Port, where there have been foreign businessmen for many years. Many manufacturers across the country who want to export their products have also set up offices there. Tengzhou also has a geographical advantage in this regard.
It can be said that as soon as Tengzhou's sanitary napkin production project came out, the entire Shan Province attached great importance to it. Qing City wanted to take the project over, but because it involved foreign exchange, Xu Sandang almost put a knife to his own neck to keep the project.
In fact, if he had lost in the end and made concessions, the project might have died.
Because, just as Yang Xiaoxi guessed, one of the reasons why Ji Xia came up with this project was to pave the way for He Wanqing.
He Wanqing walked all the way to the door of Xu Sandang's office. He Wenbin was inside with the door open. The two were discussing employment issues.
Seeing He Wanqing coming, Xu Sandang hurriedly said, "He Zhiqing is here, come in quickly, it's so late, what's going on?"
"County Magistrate Xu, I just received a notice from Comrade Ji that the production line has arrived and is parked at the Xiujiang River Mouth Wharf. We are asked to go and receive the goods."
If they were not still conscious at the moment, Xu Sandang and He Wenbin would have thought they were hallucinating.
"Going to the Xiujiang River Mouth Wharf to pick up the goods at this time? This... why at this time?" Xu Sandang was confused.
He Wenbin asked, "He Zhiqing, your information is correct, right?"
He Wanqing smiled, "Deputy County Chief He, these production lines are arguably the most advanced in the world, bar none. Do you think it would be easy to get such a production line back?"
Comrade Ji came here personally for this production line and has been busy here for a long time..."
Before He Wanqing could finish her words, Xu Sandang, who had already finished his imagination, stood up and said, "Let's go, stop talking, stop talking. Hurry up, I'll go call someone. Wenbin, you also get a car. We'll split up and meet here in half an hour."
"Okay, I'll go to the Transportation Bureau. Xiao He, excuse me, please wait for us."
The most advanced production line in the world. Although they don’t know Comrade Ji Xia’s identity, it doesn’t prevent Xu Sandang and others from thinking that these production lines must have been smuggled in from abroad.
I really regret that I shouldn't have questioned He Zhiqing just now. What's the difference between this and questioning Comrade Ji?
Comrade Ji has worked tirelessly for the industrial production of the entire country. When it comes to industrial and economic construction, no one should question Comrade Ji!
China's construction speed has always been able to surprise the world, and the foundation for this was laid a long time ago.
Just when He Wanqing was wondering whether half an hour would be enough to organize the troops, half an hour had already passed. At the door, there were a total of eight large trucks with drivers in place, and more than fifty people, some holding ropes, some carrying sticks, forming a huge group.
