"Our tractor will be officially launched on the market. According to the current progress, it will be at least September. However, we don't have our own sales channels. When it is launched, if there are any tractor buyers in your area, could you please do some advertising for us and help promote us?"
Even though the Dongdan Tractor Factory no longer produces tractors, it is still dealing with the backlog of products and their sales channels are still there. Wan Feng is thinking of taking over this channel one day since they don't need it anyway.
Wan Feng was afraid that Na Hong didn't understand the meaning of the advertisement, so he added another explanation.
"We are also in urgent need of some talent in the tractor industry. If anyone is willing to come to us, we warmly welcome them, even retired veterans. I guarantee that the salary we offer will definitely not be lower than that of your factory."
Na Hong pondered for a moment. "Promoting your tractors isn't a problem. If you can establish a relationship with the sales department, it won't be difficult. As for talent, I can't say for sure, but I can put you in touch with recent retirees. They're just sitting around doing nothing anyway."
Those who have not retired will certainly not come to Wahou now. After all, this is a rural area and their families live in a town. However, this situation will not last for a few years. After two years of unpaid leave, it will not be difficult to recruit a few talents.
"There's no rush. I might visit your factory in August. Could you connect me with your sales department? It would also be great if you could refer us to sales there. For those who come through your introduction, we'll give you a commission of fifty to one hundred dollars for each tractor sold. The more you refer, the more we'll give you."
Na Hong blinked and thought for a while: "No problem, I'll see to it when I get back and promote it to you guys."
The two men came out of the machinery factory and turned into the rubber shoe factory.
The shoe factory has also gone off work now, but the workload is heavy and there may be overtime work in the evening.
The shoe factory still needs to recruit staff. At least two shifts should be operated, and three shifts would be even better.
In the workshop, Wan Feng picked up a pair of semi-finished canvas shoes.
"These are rubber shoes made by our recently opened shoe factory. Why don't you take some back to sell this time? Those of us selling clothes here have already taken some... They're selling quite well."
Na Hong took the rubber shoes from Wan Feng's hand, his eyes lit up: "They look very nice. I wonder if they are sturdy?"
"They are very durable. The workers at our brick and tile factory have been wearing these shoes for over a month now, and not a single pair has come apart or broken."
Na Hong was very opposed to doing business at first, thinking it was a crooked way.
But he shut up after his son took out a large sum of money. After all, his son earned two or three years' salary of his in just one or two months. What else could he say!
After setting up a stall twice with his son and daughter during the holidays, he realized that doing business was so profitable.
The most important point is that the country doesn’t seem to care much about this kind of thing that was previously called speculation and profiteering.
That's why he followed his son here to take a look.
Now that he sees these beautiful and sturdy rubber shoes, he also thinks that this type of shoes has a great market.
"So these are pretty expensive, right?"
"The factory price is 1.5 yuan, and the retail price is 2.5 yuan. It's quite expensive among rubber shoes, but it's very popular among young people."
The most common low-top farm rubber shoes on the market cost 30 to 40 cents per yuan, and the high-top ones cost 70 to 80 cents per yuan. These shoes are indeed a few cents more expensive.
But in terms of style and color selection, it is not comparable to those all-green rubber shoes.
Na Hong thought about it for a while and nodded: "It should be possible. Take some back to sell it and discuss it with my son."
Wan Feng and Na Hong returned to Luan Feng's house, and they had picked up all of Wen Tan's goods.
Na Hong pointed at the shoes that Wan Feng was wearing and talked to his son about it.
Wen Tan didn't hesitate at all. When the cashier of the shoe factory came, he took out a hundred pairs of rubber shoes.
In the evening, the father and son had dinner at Luan Feng's house. There were five or six people staying at Luan Feng's house, so they didn't mind having two more pairs of chopsticks.
As for accommodation, there were plenty of them, whether it was the duty room of the machinery factory or the rubber shoe factory.
In the evening, after dinner, Wan Feng took the Hong father and son out of Luan Feng's house and sent them to the watch room of the rubber shoe factory to sleep.
After arranging accommodation, the father and son followed Wan Feng for a stroll outside.
Across the village road in front of the team building is the ditch that leads to the brick and tile factory. It used to be full of it, but now it has become a square.
There are two basketball hoops and a pair of football goals in the square.
On the court, some children and young people were fighting for the ball and sweating in the last rays of the sun.
Members from Dongtou and Xigouli gathered here one after another and entered the Jinru building.
"I'll show you around our team's activity room."
Wan Feng took the Wen Tan father and son into the building and went up the stairs to the second floor.
"Apart from a portion of the second floor being used by the public, one-third of it is the team's library, where many members read and study at night."
Through allocation from the commune, my own investment and finding books in the old room from scrap collection stations, there are now nearly 4,000 books of various kinds, and there are more than 40 members of the commune, regardless of gender, age or status, reading in it.
“I didn’t expect the cultural life of your members here is so good!”
Na Hong admired sincerely.
Then the three of them came to the third floor,
There is a table tennis room, a billiard room, a chess and card room and a conference room on the third floor. There are thirty or forty people playing ball and chess.
"Wow! That's great! I want to move here and live with you." Wen Tan said enviously.
"That's impossible. You have urban household registration, so why did you end up in the countryside? Oh, and I told you a few days ago that once you've accumulated some savings, I'll give you some digital watches to sell. Are you interested? Is there anyone selling digital watches anywhere?"
Wen Tan thought about it carefully for a long time and shook his head: "It seems not."
"Are you planning to go back and develop this market?"
Wen Tan scratched his head: "Is it possible?"
"Haha, someone in Xiuyan County has already bought my products, and they're selling quite well. If you don't hurry up, someone else might take over the Huaiyuan City market one day. Electronic watches are a very profitable business."
Wen Tan hesitated and discussed with Hong: "Then should we take some back to sell?"
Na Hong's eyes were gleaming. "Take it! Xiao Wan has already started such a big business here. What's there to be afraid of if we just take some electronic watches?"
Wan Feng looked down on Wen Tan: "When I saw you making such a fuss, I never thought you weren't as courageous as your father. You're such a loser. Uncle, you hang out here for a while. I'll take Brother Na to get the goods."
The two left the building and walked towards the east.
