As October arrives and the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, some people start visiting relatives.
However, the people in two villages have no time to visit relatives because they are busy producing and making money.
One is Zhuwang Village. Under the leadership of Li Delai, the branch secretary, a factory covering more than 20 acres was built on the rotten rocks in the village. Initially, it started with one set of second-hand equipment. Now, after half a year of development, it has four sets of production equipment. Due to the high technical and management level of Master Feng and two others, the PVC artificial leather produced is not only supplied to Yuanda Group, but also sold well in the Fushan wholesale market. Now the whole factory is in production 24 hours a day, and the farmers who put down their hoes now work in the factory in two shifts.
Sun Zongyu learned that this leather factory produces more than 30,000 yuan of artificial leather every day, and each worker earns an average of more than 70 yuan a month. In addition to dividends for the two masters, the village also has a collective income of nearly 100,000 yuan in addition to purchasing new equipment.
There was a leather craftsman named Li Quezi in the village. When he saw that there was artificial leather in his village, he spent money to buy some unqualified products, carefully cut off the damaged parts and the parts with different patterns, and then used a hand-cranked sewing machine used for shoe repair to make more than 30 handbags. Due to the good workmanship and low price, they were sold out in one day after being put on the market.
He lived with his youngest son Li Changsheng. Li Changsheng carefully calculated the cost and discussed it with his father Li Quezi for two or three days. He borrowed 3,000 yuan from various sources and went to the provincial capital to buy a special leather sewing machine and some special equipment. He also built three western rooms in his yard and set up a leather processing workshop.
At first, Li Quezi was responsible for cutting the materials, his daughter-in-law Zhang Chunhua was responsible for sewing on the sewing machine, and Li Changsheng was responsible for supply and marketing. In three days, they produced the first batch of 100 leather bags and took them to the Fushan wholesale market. Unexpectedly, a boss bought them all at once, making a net profit of 1.3 yuan for each bag. The boss also asked for another 500 bags to be delivered within five days for easy shipment.
Li Changzheng went home and discussed with his father Li Quezi and his wife, and decided to recruit his eldest sister-in-law who was idle at home and his sister and brother-in-law from other villages to work.
Li Changsheng's elder brother has skills and works in a compressor factory in the town, earning more than 120 yuan a month.
After Li Changsheng divided the work among his sister-in-law, sister, brother-in-law and father, he made more than 600 handbags in three days, sent them to the wholesale market and earned another 800 yuan.
The three families discussed and decided to build a larger factory. One family sold their pigs to raise 3,000 yuan, and flattened the pig farm of more than one acre of land at the eldest family's home. In less than ten days, a factory shed was built. Li Changsheng went to the provincial capital to buy five sets of production equipment, and found several diligent and easy-going women in the village. Li Changsheng became the factory director and salesperson, his father was responsible for technical guidance, his eldest brother was responsible for equipment maintenance and raw materials, his sister was responsible for financial accounting, and his brother-in-law was responsible for production. They produced 1,000 bags a day, and after deducting the wages of the hired workers, the net profit was 1,200 yuan.
The owner of the Fushan Wholesale Market brought over several new leather bag samples from other places and asked Li Changsheng to imitate them. Li Changsheng was also very smart. When he went to the provincial capital, he went to the largest store and bought back more than a dozen new leather bags. He tried to make several of each style and put them in the wholesale city for trial sales.
Three months later, Changsheng Leather Bag Factory had a five-acre factory building, 35 front-line workers, and could produce more than 1,500 bags a day, with a profit of nearly 2,000 yuan.
The power of role models is infinite.
People around who had some brains, seeing that Li Changsheng had actually run a factory and made money, began to think about what kind of products to produce using the leather from the leather factory. Within a month, he had opened three related factories, with sixty or seventy workers working in the factories to earn money.
For the first time, Zhuwang Village felt that the population of the village was too small. Healthy elderly people in their sixties actually ran to the factory to guard the gate, clean, organize the warehouse, and pack and ship goods.
Now that the village has money, it can do many things that it wanted to do but couldn’t do before.
All the adults in the village went to work, so the children had no one to take care of them. So, Li Delai set up a two-committee system, established a kindergarten in the village, and recruited two high school girls as teachers.
There are several elderly people in the village who have difficulty walking, so the village set up a nursing home and sent all the elderly people in the village who can no longer work there for three meals a day. Of course, their children have to pay for their living expenses, and the village hired two people to take care of them.
This fall, one college student, one technical secondary school student, two high school students, and eleven junior high school students were admitted to Zhuwang Village, and all of them were given rewards of 1,000, 800, 700, and 300 yuan respectively.
The village has also decided to reimburse all tuition fees from kindergarten to university upon presentation of invoices!
After the Double Ninth Festival, all elderly people over 60 years old in the village received a monthly old-age allowance of 60 yuan. This caused a sensation in the entire region, so much so that seven lonely elderly people in the village found their partners in their twilight years in less than three months, and it became a good story for a while!
The villagers in the village have seen earth-shaking changes in just one year, and they are all very grateful to the branch secretary Li Delai. Li Delai's prestige is well-known far and wide!
A professional leather processing village is about to emerge!
A prosperous and civilized village famous throughout the province is about to emerge!
A national model worker is about to emerge!
After visiting Zhuwang Village, Sun Zongyuan went to Xianyuzi Village the next day.
Village branch secretary Xu Qingjun had been waiting next to a big rock at the entrance of the village for a long time. When he saw Sun Zongyuan driving over, he hurried over to shake hands.
Sun Zongyuan chatted with Xu Qingjun as they walked.
"This time, I feel like the roads in the village have been paved and are cleaner. The chickens, ducks, pigs, and dogs that used to run around the streets are gone!"
"Secretary Sun, this wasn't May? Our village collectively invested 20,000 yuan to pave the streets and alleys. We also formulated village rules and regulations, prohibiting any family from raising chickens, ducks, pigs, dogs, and other pets freely. If they are allowed to do so, there will be a fine of 5 yuan for chickens and ducks, and a fine of 10 yuan for pigs and dogs. These rules have also been announced in the village!"
Xu Qingjun replied.
"Hasn't anyone reported you for imposing arbitrary fines?"
"At first, some people were dissatisfied and reported me to the work area. The work area explained that it was a matter of village self-government and that the village rules and regulations, formulated through mass meetings, were protected by law. So they dropped the lawsuit and came back to apologize to me. Of course, they had one more request."
"Tell me about it."
Xu Qingjun bent down to pick up a fruit core on the road, walked a few steps and threw it into a trash can, then walked over and said:
"He told me to erase my name from the village's public list as soon as possible."
"Oh, what do you think?"
"Since he had already admitted his mistake, and it had been posted on the public list for two days, I agreed and replaced it that evening."
"Very good. We should show some mercy when we can. Our goal isn't to punish anyone, but to establish rules. Now that we've achieved that, we can be more flexible in other areas."
