"But even if you open an industry, what will you produce? Do you have a plan?" Bai Chunjiang asked again.
Wan Feng laughed heartily. "Don't worry about that. We have plenty of products. We're just worried that our technological capabilities won't keep up with production. I'm not bragging. Even if we produce one product a year, we can still produce it for 30 years without any problems."
He doesn't have to invent anything himself. He can come up with something new every year without any repetition.
Although he couldn't make rockets or missiles, he could easily make agricultural machinery for use in rural areas.
"You might think I'm bragging, or that I'm not very reliable, but don't look back. We've been dealing with each other for several months. Look at what we've done. Is there anything that's unreliable? We never do anything unreliable."
"I can guarantee this. I was the first person to deal with Wan. I think you all know what kind of person my nephew Xiao Jun was in the past, right?"
Several old masters nodded.
"You haven't seen what my nephew has become, but you've heard about it. Have you heard of him fighting or quarreling this summer?"
"Hey! Yes, that guy used to come out early, but why does he seem to have been quiet in the past few months?" An old master asked in confusion.
"My nephew has become a different person since he met Wan after the Lunar New Year. He knows how to make money now. The book rental stall at the foot of Gushan Mountain is his. It was Wan who built it up. My nephew secretly told me that he has already earned thirty or forty yuan this summer as a student."
Several old masters were shocked: "You only earned thirty or forty yuan in a summer vacation?"
This amount is very impressive, almost enough to make a dollar.
Xiao Dexiang laughed heartily. "Even my nephew, who looked like a fool, has been brought up by Wan. I believe what Wan says. If our factory really goes bankrupt in the future, I will go to Wan and his family."
Several masters looked at each other and said, "We will consider it when the time comes."
Just having this sentence is enough. As long as Gushan Machinery Factory goes bankrupt, Wan Feng has full confidence in transferring the talents he needs over there.
Even though the matter was completed successfully, Wan Feng came out of Xiao Dexiang's house and turned around to Xiao Jun's bookstall at the foot of Gushan Mountain.
I thought Xiao Jun's business would plummet when school started, but unexpectedly, he was smiling and didn't seem to be disappointed that there was no one in front of his stall.
Wan Feng sat down next to him, and Xiao Jun handed him a cigarette.
Wan Feng looked at him unhappily: "That's amazing! You're smoking a cigarette? Do you want to drink?"
"Hey, school has started and there's no one here. I felt bored, so I grabbed a pack of cigarettes and smoked some."
Wan Feng reached out and took the cigarette from his mouth and threw it to the ground: "Since you just started smoking, don't smoke. Give that pack of cigarettes to your uncle. Smoking is not a good thing. Don't touch this thing out of curiosity. Even if you want to smoke, wait until you are twenty years old."
Xiao Jun put away the cigarette and smiled embarrassedly.
"Even if you don't want to study at all?"
"Hmm! I really can't read any further."
Wan Feng sighed, "It's too early to come down. How can we just manage to get through to the middle school? Then how much business will these two book stalls have?"
"About 156 mao."
It's about the same as Xu Bin, slightly taller than Xu Bin, which is normal.
"Renting books is just a temporary way to save some money, not a long-term thing. Have you ever thought about doing something else?"
"What are you doing?"
"Are you interested in driving?"
"Driving? Of course!" Xiao Jun was excited.
Driving was a big deal back then and it was the dream of countless young people at that time. How could Xiao Jun not like it?
"You should learn to drive from now on."
"But where can I find driving lessons?"
"Can you endure hardship?"
"What are you doing?"
"We pulled bricks with the tractor, one or two thousand bricks, and loaded and unloaded them ourselves."
"Pulling bricks is so tiring." The lazy nature of the character was revealed.
"Handling bricks isn't your goal. Your goal is to learn to drive. You should be able to drive by the end of the year. We'll pay you for loading and unloading bricks, so you can earn money and learn to drive at the same time. How about this, I guarantee you'll make 150 yuan by the New Year."
Whether it was a tractor or a car, there was no driving school in Hongya in 1980. Except for the people in the fleet, the rest of the people had no way to learn how to drive.
It was not until 1985 that the first agricultural machinery driving school was established in Hongya to train tractor and car drivers.
Therefore, if Xiao Jun wants to learn how to drive, he can only follow the car, establish a good relationship with the driver and let him teach him, otherwise there is no other way.
At that time, you didn’t need a driver’s license or anything like that. You just needed to know how to drive a tractor.
Wan Feng actually considered buying a tractor for himself after returning home. He would have to buy one sooner or later anyway. But when he thought about buying a new car, it would cost a lot of money, and Zhang Hai would definitely not agree.
He did not mention this plan. Anyway, in two years, when everyone is working on their own, a large number of second-hand tractors will appear on the market. Public tractors like the one Yang Hong is driving now will appear on the market at that time, and the prices will be very low. That will be the best time to buy a tractor.
By the time I have a tractor, I will be worried about not having a car to drive.
Xiao Jun began to hesitate, but in the final analysis he still didn't want to help load and unload bricks.
For an adult, one or two thousand bricks is basically a job to support an adult.
In his previous life, Wan Feng worked as a brick hauler for a year. Each truck he drove carried 4,000 bricks, and there were two loaders, each of whom had to load and unload 8,000 bricks.
Compared with this, following a 22 tractor to pull 2,000 bricks is, in Wan Feng's words, just a piece of cake.
Xiao Jun is sixteen years old this year. Although he is still young, his physical development is still good. If he has patience and only needs ten and a half months of training, he will like this job.
It takes more than an hour to load and unload 2,000 bricks at the fastest speed, and only two hours at the slowest. The rest of the time is spent sitting in the car and enjoying the scenery. In fact, this is a good job.
"You're still not happy? I'll tell you the truth. This is just you. I wouldn't care if it were someone else. Do you know how many young people are pulling bricks behind the carts? If you're skilled enough, you can finish two thousand bricks in two hours at most. The rest of the time you'll just be riding the carts and having fun. If you go, there will definitely be people who will object, but that's not my business and I won't care. Do you want to go?"
"I think it's no problem for you to pull bricks like you do, but can I learn to drive a car?"
"What's that? Don't think driving is cool and classy. Even a dog can drive away with a piece of bread tied to the steering wheel. Just wait for me to talk to the driver and ask him to teach you when he's free. In a few years, when there's a driving school, you can get a ticket. Whether it's a tractor or a big board, there will definitely be one in the future. I guarantee you'll have your own car to drive."
"Okay! Then I'll go. I'm still young anyway, so it's a good thing to train for a few years first." Xiao Jun patted his chest.
Holy shit, my thinking has improved! Could it be that I gained enlightenment from a book?
