Chapter 354 I Don’t Want to Stay in the Tobacco Factory
"this……"
Seeing Shen Junyi's hesitant look, Bai Wei had no choice but to use his ultimate move.
"Director Shen, as long as you can arrange this, I guarantee that within a year, the tobacco factory's baking equipment will be fully improved and updated. Not only can we make better tobacco leaves, but the cost can also be reduced. However, all the expenses will be borne by the tobacco factory itself."
Shen Junyi really couldn't refuse the temptation thrown by Bai Wei.
Tobacco factories are in great need of reform now. Shen Junyi has a powerful family background and knows that policies that will benefit the tobacco market will be issued soon. If Hongta Tobacco Factory can catch up with this wave of benefits, it will make a qualitative leap.
"Comrade Bai Wei, I want to see the adjustment plan within three months!"
Shen Junyi's words had made the matter final.
"Okay, no problem!"
Bai Wei nodded vigorously, "But Director Shen, I will be going to Beijing soon, so I can only mail these plans to you from now on."
"Okay, but you have to come to the factory when we need you."
Shen Junyi really believed in Bai Wei's ability. The things she designed were not something that ordinary people could do. It was his blessing to meet such a talent.
After that, the two discussed the details. Shen Junyi was willing to accept all the tobacco leaves, but the specific price needed to be calculated after weighing.
As for the baking equipment that Bai Wei had already adjusted, she spent 800 yuan on it, and finally quoted Shen Junyi 1,800 yuan. However, Shen Junyi was really cunning and forced Bai Wei to pay 1,500 yuan, and she had to pay 50 yuan a month. With this calculation, Bai Wei would need 30 months to get the full payment for this batch of goods.
The time is indeed long enough, but fifty yuan a month is almost equal to Song Qinian’s monthly salary.
Although the payment had to be made in installments, Bai Wei could still accept it.
Shen Junyi was very efficient. He quickly arranged for someone to take over Bai Wei's truckload of goods. Although no one knew how he would legally receive the goods, Bai Wei deposited 662 yuan for this batch of tobacco leaves!
Including the fifty yuan salary advance from Shen Junyi, Bai Wei has now received a total of seven hundred yuan. It is a little less than the eight hundred yuan at the beginning, but with the subsequent salary deposited every month, Bai Wei feels much more at ease.
"Let's go! I'll treat everyone to dinner!"
Bai Wei took the money and was extremely happy. He waved his hand and was about to take Xin Nan and others out for dinner.
Although Shen Junyi did not settle Xin Nan's job immediately, he also promised Bai Wei that as long as Xin Nan and Gangzi could master the baking work under her, these two positions could indeed be arranged, and the salary would be twelve yuan a month.
Xin Nan didn't know about this. Bai Wei originally wanted to take them to a state-owned hotel for dinner, but Xin Nan was reluctant to let Bai Wei spend money. The six of them had big appetites and each of them could eat four or five bowls of rice alone. Xin Nan was really afraid that Bai Wei's hard-earned money would be wasted.
"Sister Bai Wei, since you are so happy, let's go to my house!"
However, Ke Yuanbao, seeing that Bai Wei had really dealt with Shen Junyi's family and even sold the tobacco leaves, immediately waved his hand and invited them to his house for dinner.
“Is this appropriate?”
Bai Wei was a little hesitant, after all, there were too many people here.
"Of course it's suitable! Our house is big and can accommodate everyone! Eating at home is always much more cost-effective than going out!"
Under Ke Yuanbao's insistence, Bai Wei agreed to go to his house for dinner.
But before going there, she took Ke Yunduo to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought rice, oil, and even meat and vegetables. However, the meat and vegetable coupons were all given by Ke Yuanbao. Bai Wei insisted on giving him the money, but Ke Yuanbao refused to accept it.
After buying the vegetables, Xu Sanduo drove the group to Ke Yuanbao's home.
When Bai Wei arrived home, she discovered that the Ke family's house was a large courtyard where the entire family lived. The place was spacious and looked very big.
"Sister Bai Wei, come on! Come in!"
As soon as Bai Wei entered, he found the room was empty and no one was there.
Ke Yuanbao turned around and shouted loudly.
"Dad! Mom! Aunt! Sister!"
After shouting for a while, no one came out. Ke Yuanbao felt strange, "Huh? Why is no one here?"
Bai Wei also looked around. The Ke family's house was really a big place. The rooms on all sides were kept clean. Even the kitchen was quite large, with honeycomb coal piled outside.
"Sister Bai Wei, maybe they are all out busy, they should be back soon."
Ke Yuanbao nodded, but Bai Wei asked Xin Nan and others to carry the rice, oil and vegetables from the car.
"Yuanbao, since your family is not here, I will cook first and we can eat together when they come back."
Bai Wei rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook for himself.
"Sister Bai Wei, do you want to do it yourself?"
Ke Yuanbao was stunned. He was still thinking about letting his mother cook, but he didn't think of letting Bai Wei do it.
"Master is a real chef, and his meals are delicious!"
Xiao Meng carried the rice and walked inside. Xin Nan hurried forward a few steps. Although he was still holding the oil in one hand, he took the rice bag from Xiao Meng's hand with his other hand and walked forward with the things in his hand.
"That's right! The braised pork made by Sister Bai Wei is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten!"
"Yes, yes, yes! That smell...I will never forget it in my life."
Just now, they all seemed to be still reminiscing about the braised pork they had eaten at Bai Wei's house, and their mouths were watering.
Ke Yuanbao's family conditions were good, and he usually had plenty of meat and fish to eat, so he never felt this way.
“Is it really that delicious? Can it be better than the chefs at state-owned hotels?”
"Of course! You don't know! The chef of the state-owned hotel in our county has been transferred to Kyoto to be the chef, thanks to what my master taught me!"
Xiao Meng said loudly with her hands on her hips proudly.
Seeing that several people were talking so convincingly, even Ke Yuanbao became interested and nodded.
"Okay! Then I'm going to see today how good Sister Bai Wei's cooking skills are!"
Bai Wei just smiled, walked into the kitchen and started cooking. As the aroma from the kitchen wafted out, even Ke Yuanbao was almost drooling.
"What is this? Why does it smell so good?"
Ke Yuanbao couldn't wait to go into the kitchen, but was stopped by Xiao Meng.
"You'll know in a moment, just wait!"
Xiao Meng smiled, and Ke Yuanbao had no choice but to wait outside obediently.
Xin Nan and a few others originally wanted to help Bai Wei, but they were all forced to leave. They sat in a row and squatted in front of the eaves.
Ke Yuanbao looked at Xin Nan and the others, smiled, walked up and asked.
"Hey, Xinnan, I heard from Sister Bai Wei that she found a job for you guys at the tobacco factory. You are so lucky!"
Xinnan also knew this, but he just lowered his head and spoke in a muffled voice.
"I don't want to work in a tobacco factory, I just want to follow Sister Bai Wei!"
Hearing Xinnan's words, Ke Yuanbao felt a little strange.
"You kid, working in a tobacco factory is a stable job, don't you want it?"
