Chapter 157: Good Steel Is Used on the Blade



After visiting the granary, the group headed to the Yunling Garment Factory.

Chen Jianan lagged behind a few steps.

Looking at Yu Jinsong striding forward with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, the many staff members behind him followed closely, like stars surrounding the moon.

He couldn't help but feel emotional.

A real man should be like this. He must establish some achievements to make his life worthwhile.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and caught up with him.

“Squeak, squeak…”

As soon as I entered the yard, I heard a noisy sound.

Next to the courtyard wall, there are three long rows of iron cages.

There are foxes, otters and rabbits in it.

On the other side there are slaughterhouses and leather-making workshops.

The most important thing is the garment workshop.

The entire factory area has expanded three times compared to the original educated youth compound.

The original courtyard wall had long been removed, and now a high wall has been rebuilt according to the new scale.

The male and female educated youth no longer lived here, but rebuilt dormitories.

"Jian'an, this place is quite large."

"The Soviet Union is located in a very cold region, and they like fur goods the most."

"You're scratching their itch."

Yu Jinsong put his hands behind his back, looked around and commented.

Heilongjiang Province is located in the northern border area, bordering the Soviet Union and has frequent contacts with it.

As relations between the two countries show signs of warming, contacts have been significantly strengthened in politics, industry and commerce.

Yu Jinsong also wanted to earn more foreign exchange from the Soviet Union.

Now it seems that Chen Jianan has actually walked ahead.

"Governor Yu, this side of the garment workshop."

Chen Jianan took two steps forward to lead the way.

He took Yu Jinsong directly into a big door.

"Smokers, please take note, this is a smoke-free workshop, no open flames are allowed."

This generation of cigarettes was also a luxury item. Ordinary farmers generally could not afford it and all of them smoked the dry tobacco they grew in their own homes.

But the provincial officials who followed Yu Jinsong could naturally afford it.

One cadre was holding a half-smoked cigarette in his hand.

There is no concept of smoking ban at present.

The cadre was visibly stunned after hearing this.

"Since there is such a rule, we must abide by it. I believe that Village Chief Chen has his own reasons."

Yu Jinsong looked back.

The cadre quickly threw the cigarette butt against the wall to extinguish it, then put the butt into his pocket.

Only then did he give Yu Jinsong an awkward smile.

"Jian'an, can you tell me why this rule is in place?"

Yu Jinsong looked at Chen Jianan with interest.

"The air in the garment workshop is dry and filled with flammable materials."

"Even in the air, which is invisible and intangible, there are many flammable particles floating around."

"If you're not careful, it could cause a fire."

"We have limited firefighting equipment, so we can only start at the source and ban smoking completely."

This generation does not take fire seriously enough.

Or maybe, there is no such concept yet.

However, Chen Jianan knew how serious the fire hazard was.

Having said this, his eyes turned.

"Governor Yu, you are here by chance. I would like to ask you to help me apply for a batch of fire extinguishers from the fire department."

Due to the weak industry, the current fire brigade is not equipped with many fire extinguishers.

Chen Jianan's own face was obviously not big enough, so he couldn't get it at all.

"Good boy, you are just plucking the feathers of a passing goose."

Yu Jinsong smiled.

There was appreciation in his eyes.

He liked Chen Jianan's enthusiasm for work.

"Okay, tell me how much you want later."

Yu Jinsong turned his head slightly.

Secretary Jin immediately wrote it down in her notebook.

Chen Jianan knew clearly that no matter what the matter was, as long as it was in Secretary Jin's notebook, it would basically be settled.

At the entrance of the factory, there are some middle-aged women who are doing preliminary processing of the leather.

These women in the village are used to doing needlework, and their movements are quick and steady.

Yu Jinsong nodded, very satisfied.

"The Soviets are rich. As long as our products are good, they will definitely be willing to buy them."

"Just make sure the quality of the goods is up to par, and don't just do one-time deals."

Yu Jinsong instructed.

"Governor Yu, rest assured that we uphold the concept that integrity is the basis of everything we do."

"The products produced in this workshop will undergo strict inspection."

"One is that they check themselves."

"The other is the quality inspection team in my separate car."

"Those products are secretly engraved with numbers, so whoever has a problem will be contacted."

Chen Jianan is well aware of the importance of quality.

Both garment factories and breweries have set up separate quality inspection teams.

Avoid falsification of internal self-inspection in the factory.

Plus the product has a label on it.

It is clear who is responsible, so no one dares to be perfunctory.

Yu Jinsong listened and nodded continuously.

"Your method is good. No one can take advantage of the situation."

"The factories in the province don't have this system, and they are in a mess."

"I think those factory managers should really come and learn from you."

When talking about the state-owned enterprises in the province, Yu Jinsong's tone was filled with dissatisfaction.

It obviously has the best policies, occupies the best geographical location, and attracts the most talents.

However, the products produced are difficult to satisfy people.

If it weren't a planned economy, sales would be forced.

I'm afraid no one will buy it.

Once the top-level reforms are implemented, full market competition will be carried out.

Are these factories in the province feasible?

Yu Jinsong's eyes were deep and he had already seen the crisis in advance.

Unfortunately, the vested officials below cannot see this.

Wanting to change them, getting them to change, is harder than climbing to the sky.

This is also the reason why Yu Jinsong was so happy after seeing Chen Jianan.

What he did was really to his own liking.

However, the current policy direction is still unclear.

Chen Jianan is too young.

If you are promoted to a high position rashly, you may become the first to stick out and be attacked.

The best way is to let him mess around here.

If you really have achieved enough results, when the time comes to promote you, no one will be able to say anything.

Thinking of this, Yu Jinsong looked at Chen Jianan deeply and made up his mind that he must pay more attention to this young man in the future.

Yu Jinsong continued to walk deeper into the factory, and suddenly heard a series of "clicking sounds."

"What's that?"

A door appeared in front.

Chen Jianan looked slightly proud and walked forward and opened the door.

A spacious and bright room suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

More than a dozen sewing machines are neatly arranged and operating at full speed.

The young women are finishing the materials.

The clicking sound officially came from the sewing machine.

"Jian'an, your factory is really generous. You bought so many sewing machines at once?"

Yu Jinsong was very surprised.

In this generation, one of the hardware items for marriage is the sewing machine.

Ordinary families can only afford to buy one when they are newly married.

But in this room, there are more than a dozen of them, all brand new.

"The best steel should be used on the blade."

“The sewing machine cost a fortune though.”

"But after the efficiency is improved, the factory can make more money."

“This investment is well worth it.”

Chen Jianan explained.

The first batch of more than a dozen sewing machines were given to female educated youth to practice.

They are young and learn things quickly.

Once they become proficient, we will buy the first batch of sewing machines and let the female educated youth train the young women in the village.

This iteration speed should be able to keep up with the growth rate of goods purchases on the Soviet side.

Otherwise, if everything is done manually, it will be far from enough.

After listening to Chen Jianan's argument, Yu Jinsong nodded in approval.
