In 1985, the country liberalized the pig business and state-owned meat processing plants were pushed into the market. Countless meat processing plants in the country began to have a hard time after leaving the protection of the planned economy.
In May 1986, Gao Fenglai, director of the Luohe Meat Processing Plant, saw a Japanese-made ham filling machine while attending an international expo and bought it. In August 1987, China's first ham sausage, "Chundu," was produced there.
However, the ham sausage was not popular at first, and the sales of Chundu ham sausage were not satisfactory.
It was not until 1989 when the Luohe Meat Processing Plant spent a large sum of money on advertising on CCTV that ham sausage became popular across the country overnight.
Longjiang is a vast area with a sparse population, and is a key national grain production base.
Every year, the large amount of wheat heads left over from each company is an excellent feed for raising pigs. The farm can encourage employees from each company to raise pigs vigorously, and then the main farm can establish a ham sausage factory to purchase these pigs to make ham sausages and sell them all over the country.
Of course, advertising still needs to be done.
Wan Feng began to popularize knowledge about ham sausage to Yu Guo.
A kind of sausage wrapped in a casing, each weighing 100 grams, with a shelf life of up to 180 days, and the selling price is between 50 and 60 cents.
Yu Guo thought this was a good idea.
“But where can I buy the equipment?”
Wan Feng recalled for a long time, and it seemed that he had never come into contact with a ham sausage filling machine, so he didn't know what it looked like.
"Then you'll have to find a way to buy it through foreign trade. Japan already has this kind of equipment. Of course, you'll also need a cold storage for meat. We don't need a cold storage here in the winter, but we do need one in the summer. This is the bulk of the investment. I think if the headquarters can buy the equipment, it will definitely be a suitable path for the development of our region."
In this way, the company employees will be interested in expanding their business scale and continuing to raise pigs if the pigs they raise can be sold. The sausage factory will turn these pigs into sausages and sell them to the three northeastern provinces and even the whole country. This will form a virtuous circle. As long as we don't make mistakes like Chundu Group, we will definitely continue to develop.
"Okay! I'll report this idea to the school leaders, and then they'll report it to the headquarters. Whether it's adopted or not is up to the headquarters. Anyway, we've given them the idea."
After finishing the cultural classes in the morning, Wan Feng went to his master Li You’s house at noon and had lunch there.
During the meal, Li You told Wan Feng a piece of news that surprised Wan Feng.
Some people have already had small-scale transactions with the Soviets across the Longjiang River.
"The border guards don't care?"
"The transaction took place in the Sijitun area downstream, halfway between our border station and the Khormoki border station downstream. By the time the border guards discovered the situation and arrived, the people had already fled."
This is blatant smuggling. This kind of thing has never happened in the previous life.
But it appeared in this life, and it appeared in the winter of 1985. This change seems a bit big.
Could it be that the Soviet Union would be in turmoil before 1989 and would officially disintegrate before 1991?
"Do you know what they trade?"
"It seems like everything sold in stores here is needed over there. This shouldn't be right. The Soviet Union is a developed country, so how come they don't even seem to have canned food?" Li You asked doubtfully.
The Soviet Union was a top-heavy country, and its development focus was on heavy industry. Light industry was insignificant to the leaders of their country. Therefore, the Soviet Union's light industry at that time could only be described as a mess. Since it stepped into the quagmire of Afghanistan in 1979, its domestic economic situation has been getting worse day by day, and civilian goods are in a state of extreme scarcity.
Otherwise, there wouldn't have been such a bizarre thing that happened: a woman in Heihe traded dozens of jars of soybean paste for steel and became a millionaire.
This incident shows the extent of the shortage of daily necessities in the Soviet Union.
Of course, people like Li You were not aware of this phenomenon, as the two sides of the Taiwan Strait were still closed at the time.
"My apprentice, do you want to go for a few trips and earn some money to spend during the New Year?" Lin Jijie didn't go last time, and he felt deeply regretful when he saw his son coming back with a lot of money.
Wan Feng was shocked.
"Master, you can't do this. Don't be jealous of this. This is illegal. We only make money within the legal limit. It's better to stay away from such things that can cost you your life."
This is no joke. If you are ambushed while trading on the Heilongjiang River, you will have nowhere to run. Are you going to run to the Russians?
That's comparable to entering the palace as a eunuch in 1911 and joining the Nationalist Party in 1949.
Wan Feng would definitely not do such a stupid thing.
Since there are indeed risky transactions among the people, official transactions will not be far away.
Wan Feng decided to go to Heihe before the end of the month to test the waters in Quyang.
After Wan Feng came back, the person who changed the most was naturally Zhang Xuan. She was no longer listless, although due to limited conditions, she had not yet been reunited with Wan Feng.
There is a saying in ancient books about the relationship between men and women that often appears: It is better to have nothing than to have something and lose it.
That means that if a woman has never experienced sex, she won't care much about it, but once she knows the feeling and then loses it, it will be unbearable.
Zhang Xuan was in this kind of precarious situation.
She has been in a state of hunger and thirst without rain or dew for more than half a year, so naturally her mind is full of nonsense.
"I'm planning to take a vacation at the end of this month. Would you like to stay at my house for two days?" Zhang Xuan looked at Wan Feng eagerly.
Wan Feng shook his head: "Where are you sending your sister?"
"Let her go live with my parents and brother."
"Can you have some shame? You sent your sister to your parents' room just to sleep?"
Zhang Xuan blushed and pouted as she argued, "Don't say such harsh words, okay? Don't you miss me? I know she's the only one in your heart."
"That's bullshit!"
"How about we stay in the garment factory during the holiday at the end of the month?"
This woman has taken a holiday at the end of this month and has not made any money. Is it necessary for her to be so hungry?
But this is something I can consider. It's not impossible to stay here for a day before going home. But there are some things I still need to talk to Zhang Xuan about before going to bed.
Wan Feng told Zhang Xuan the news that his family was moving back to Beiliao. Although Zhang Xuan knew the news before, he was depressed after it was confirmed.
"What should I do if you go back?"
This question is indeed a headache. Should Zhang Xuan follow Wan Feng to Bei Liao?
Wan Feng also had a headache.
"After the Chinese New Year, I will sell the garment factory to my aunt and go to Beiliao." Zhang Xuan made up his mind after three minutes.
Wan Feng began to scratch his head.
The crime of hooliganism was not abolished until 1997. Even if Zhang Xuan got over Luan Feng and they lived in peace, he would still have to live in fear for more than ten years.
If someone accuses him of bigamy, hooliganism or something like that, he will have to go to jail.
It's nonsense to say he doesn't have a headache.
