"Village Chief Chen, you really know how to seize opportunities."
Secretary Jin at the side laughed and teased.
At the same time, I admire him very much.
Is this Chen Jianan really only eighteen years old?
I think he has more experience than those old foxes who have been in the officialdom for their whole lives!
"Secretary Jin, time is running out."
"Everyone in the village wants to live a good life. How can I not seize the opportunity?"
Chen Jianan and Zheng Yu said.
"Well said."
"As officials, we must have the awareness of serving the people and strengthen our sense of responsibility."
"As long as you are dedicated to the public, you can ask for anything you want."
Yu Jinsong waved back.
"Then I'll tell you."
Chen Jianan pondered for a moment and organized his words.
"In fact, it is the geographical environment that has always restricted our development."
Chen Jianan spoke slowly.
"Geographical environment?"
Secretary Jin was puzzled.
"Yes, it's a long way to transport goods from here to the Soviet Union. Transportation alone is a problem."
Currently, Chen Jianan has been using Tang Huai's relationship to borrow trucks from a county transportation company to transport goods.
Although it is convenient at the moment.
But what if there are changes in the future?
What should we do if Tang Huai is transferred?
This can strangle the entire village, so we must be on guard against it.
"You mean, you want to build a road?"
Yu Jinsong frowned.
Chen Jianan's request is quite reasonable.
If a road is built from Xiaoheyan Village directly to the provincial capital, transportation will indeed become smooth.
It not only increases speed but also saves shipping costs.
The problem is... the province doesn't have that money.
In this era, it would cost a lot of manpower and resources to build a standard asphalt road.
The province was already financially tight.
If I force the decision, it will eventually lead to huge resistance.
Although he also wanted to help Chen Jianan, he didn't know how to take such a big risk.
As Yu Jinsong's close associate, Secretary Jin naturally understands his difficulties.
I was just about to persuade Chen Jianan not to create problems for his leader.
Chen Jianan spoke first.
"Governor Yu, you misunderstood. I don't want to build a road."
Chen Jianan shook his head.
"Oh? What do you want?"
Yu Jinsong was a little surprised.
He saw that gravel roads were built in Xiaoheyan Village, so he thought that Chen Jianan must be particularly concerned about road construction.
I didn't expect that I guessed wrong.
"Road construction consumes too much energy. We need to wait until the economy develops to a certain level before we can implement it."
Chen Jianan has a clear understanding of this issue.
"Yes, after all, we are still poor."
Yu Jinsong sighed.
"Village Chief Chen, what exactly do you want? Tell me now."
Secretary Jin was anxious.
At the same time, I am also full of curiosity.
"Actually, I want to ask Governor Yu for help and establish a relationship."
Chen Jianan said calmly.
"Oh, what's the relationship?"
Yu Jinsong raised his eyebrows.
It is not enough for Chen Jianan to appreciate himself.
Do we need to establish a relationship with the capital?
But what can a insignificant village chief like you do even if you know a high-ranking official in Beijing?
The gap is too big, and others won’t bother to pay attention to you.
"Village Chief Chen, Governor Yu is an upright person. He hates those who form cliques and use connections to gain favors. You should think carefully."
Secretary Jin winked at Chen Jianan frantically.
He also admired Chen Jianan.
I don't want him to embarrass himself in front of the governor.
"You misunderstood."
"I'm not trying to use my connections in the government."
"I want to build connections in Hong Kong Island."
"I want to open a canning factory, but the only place where I can buy equipment is Hong Kong Island."
Chen Jianan finally told everyone his entire plan.
But it shocked everyone.
Isn't this step too big?
Canned food, in this era, is an absolute luxury.
A glass bottle of canned fruit is equivalent to the price of a pound of pork.
In ordinary towns, the old people with the surname of "Xu" would only open a bottle of wine when they have important guests or during festivals.
As for the countryside...
I'm afraid most people can't afford it.
Secretary Jin stared at Chen Jianan blankly.
It's in his seal.
Xiaoheyan Village engages in breeding and winemaking, both of which are adapted to local conditions.
After all, it is also a part of agriculture.
But running a canning factory is completely an industry.
Who will you sell your product to?
Besides, is it necessary to go to Hong Kong Island to buy equipment?
Secretary Jin was unable to wrap his mind around this for a moment.
Yu Jinsong's eyes lit up.
"Jian'an, you run a canning factory. Can you sell the products you produce?"
He stared at Chen Jianan with burning eyes, hoping to hear the answer he wanted.
"Yes."
"I discussed this with Miss Elena."
"The Soviet Union and Russia have a huge demand for canned products, and they can be re-exported to the entire Nordic region through the Soviet Union."
"Every household is used to eating canned products, which are a delicacy that cannot be left on the table."
Chen Jianan conducted extensive field research.
I have also discussed this with Elena several times.
Canned food has a broad market and can guarantee sufficiently high profits, so it is worth doing.
"This is great!"
Yu Jinsong slammed the table.
Everyone was shocked and didn't know why he was so happy.
"Jian'an, I can help you contact Hong Kong Island."
"But I have a request."
Yu Jinsong suddenly looked at Chen Jianan.
"What do you want?"
"I want you to can apples and pears, and tomatoes..."
Yu Jinsong thought about it and named three styles.
Chen Jianan was stunned. He didn't expect that he would have such a request.
Secretary Jin's eyes suddenly lit up.
He understood.
Governor Yu excitedly clicked this!
Heilongjiang Province is not only a major grain-producing province.
It’s also a major fruit producing province!
Especially apples and pears.
Although grain production decreased this year, there was a good harvest of apples and pears.
Unfortunately, due to the nationwide campaign, the railway was almost paralyzed.
So these apples and pears cannot be transported out at all.
The agricultural station collected a large amount of it and had to keep it in its own hands.
When the government stops purchasing, the remaining crops will be left in the hands of the farmers themselves.
It's freezing cold now, but it's still manageable.
But when spring comes and the temperature rises.
What to do with the fruits?
Are we just going to watch them block the warehouse?
That's all money!
It is not only the farmers who will suffer losses.
Agricultural stations at all levels of government will also lose large sums of money.
This is a major issue that affects the entire body.
Now Chen Jianan wants to open a canning factory.
Regardless of sales.
As long as we can use up some of the fruit inventory, that would be great.
Secretary Jin whispered the whole story to Chen Jianan.
Chen Jianan nodded.
"Governor Yu, I promise you."
"You can open a canned fruit production line and give priority to purchasing products from our province."
Chen Jianan also admired Governor Yu’s concern for the farmers.
"Well, it's a deal!"
Yu Jinsong laughed out loud.
Secretary Kim was moved.
Yu Jinsong has been under a lot of pressure these days.
Today, he rarely shows such a relaxed expression.
Chen Jianan, you helped a lot.
You can help your leader solve his problems, so how can your leader treat you unfairly?
Secretary Jin thought to himself that Chen Jianan had a bright future.
Yu Jinsong was anxious to sell fruits for the farmers.
After dinner, Chen Jianan led them directly to the village chief's office.
Picked up the newly installed wired telephone.
"I'm Yu Jinsong, take over the Hong Kong and Taiwan Affairs Office for me."
"Hello, Mr. Zheng, I have something I want to talk to you about... Yes, don't worry, they are definitely capable, and I can guarantee it."
"Okay, okay...thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Jinsong looked at Chen Jianan with a smile.
"It works. Zheng's family happens to have business dealings with several European trading companies."
"He will be here soon to talk to you about the details."
Most of the people in Hong Kong Island have patriotic sentiments.
If conditions permit, they are also willing to help the mainland.
"Thank you so much, Governor Yu."
"After the cannery is completed, please come and cut the ribbon."
"must!"
Yu Jinsong nodded.
Secretary Jin quickly wrote it down in her notebook.
See off Yu Jinsong and his group.
Chen Jianan went to the village dormitory.
He patted Yu Jinsong and drank a few glasses of deer blood wine, feeling a little tipsy.
Today he made plans in advance and let Li Chunhua go home to rest.
You don’t have to worry about any impact when you sleep in your own dormitory.
Thinking of this, Chen Jianan took off his coat and lay comfortably on the bed.
But he didn't see it.
A graceful figure appeared at the door.
