What she wanted was to run a factory in the same way as Lin Shanshan and her family did in their hometown.
If the township agrees, the village will set up the factory.
Once this factory is established, a series of support will definitely be needed, so she got involved.
What she thought at the beginning was that the cloth produced in the village should be used by the villagers first. If there was any surplus, she could use the black market to exchange the cloth for money.
In this way, people who need cloth can get it, and people who need money can get money.
Moreover, this will not cause any impact on the market.
Once this deal is done, she will be able to have a relatively stable income.
Once you have income, you don’t have to worry about paying back the money.
Right now, the combined income of her and Jiang Xun is less than 100 yuan. After deducting the daily food and drink expenses, they can still have more than 50 yuan left per month.
...
...
If you only consider the repayment, it will take two to three years at most to pay off the debt.
Two or three years later, it was the late 1970s and early 1980s.
At that time, the country's economy will undergo a transformation, gradually changing from a planned economy to a market economy. If this cloth factory can still operate at that time, it will make a lot of money.
The 1980s was a time of gold and a good time to start a business.
Ye Li thought of this very point, so he tried to do this.
In her previous life, she had learned that many large companies originated from a small factory in the village.
As for how it developed, she didn't know, but this time Lin Shanshan provided her with information and ideas, so she decided to give it a try.
Ye Li's idea made everyone silent. If one wanted to open a weaving factory, it couldn't be accomplished with just a few words.
There are too many things involved, including raw materials, funds, technology, etc.
Everyone was stunned for a long time, and Guan Gensheng spoke up: "Sister, we can't make the decision on this matter. We have to let the village party secretary, village director and leaders of the village committee make a joint decision."
Ye Li looked at him and said: "Then please help me introduce him."
"Introduce... introduce?"
"Well, just let me meet the village leaders." Ye Li said.
Guan Gensheng scratched his head and said, "Sister, do we have to do this?"
It sounds good, but it’s actually quite difficult to do.
I don't know whether the village leaders will allow me to do it. I don't want to work so hard in vain and get nothing in the end.
"Of course, definitely." Ye Li said firmly.
"Then...then I'll give it a try?"
Guan Fuan lit a dry cigarette and took two puffs. As if he had thought of something, he immediately said to Guan Gensheng: "Give it a try! You must give it a try! Otherwise, you can take your sister and the others to the village party committee to talk. Otherwise, invite them to our house."
"I'll go check out what the leaders think."
"Okay, then go quickly." Guan Ningquan urged his son, and did not forget to instruct him, "When you come back, go to the village credit union and buy a pound of wine and some peanuts. Let's have a drink with your brother-in-law at noon today."
"knew."
Guan Gensheng was gone for half a day, and the food at home was ready, with the table full of food.
"No need to wait for him, let's go to the table first." Guan Fuan said.
There was a small rectangular low wooden table and small stools with four legs placed in a circle.
The food on the table was very sumptuous.
This richness is compared with the meals of other families in the countryside.
On the table there were cold cucumbers, cold purslane, scrambled eggs with hot peppers, stir-fried beans, a stewed chicken, and a basket of golden steamed buns.
"Come sit down." Guan Ningquan greeted Jiang Xun, "Don't be polite, you're at home here. It's not easy for our family these years, thanks to your father's friends who have been supporting us. The good days during this period are all thanks to Li Li."
Jiang Xun took a while to realize that the father Guan Ningquan was referring to was his father-in-law, Ye Li's biological father.
"Uncle San, Li Li has always been thinking about you. She said that you are all her closest relatives, and if she has the ability, she hopes to make everyone live a good life." When Jiang Xun sat down, he took the opportunity to say a few good words for his wife.
He could see that Ye Li cherished this family relationship very much.
He could see even more clearly that his daughter-in-law wanted to do something big, and the foundation and starting point of this business should be in this rural area.
"Li Li is a good girl. If my second brother saw her, he would be so happy." Guan Ningquan said with emotion.
"Yeah, I don't know whether our two elders are alive or not. If they are alive, where are they?" Guan Fuan's eyes turned red as he spoke. "So many years have passed, how can they just disappear without a trace?"
"Uncle, don't be sad." Ye Li patted his hand gently, "I always feel that my father is still alive. Maybe there is some secret that prevents him from facing us. One day, I think my father will stand in front of us."
"Yes, brother. Li Li and Xiao Jiang are back today. Let's not talk about this unhappy thing and make the children sad." Guan Ningquan persuaded his elder brother.
"Yes, yes, you are right. I am also old and confused. Let's not talk about anything else. Come, let's eat."
Guan Haisheng, Guan Ningquan, Guan Fuan and Jiang Xun had already sat down at the four sides of the table.
The four of them filled up the space.
Jiang Xun moved outward to make room for Ye Li.
Ye Li was just about to sit down next to Jiang Xun when she suddenly remembered that there were other people at home.
"Uncle, why don't you see my sister-in-law and the children?"
"Your sister-in-law went to the mountains to cut grass for pigs and won't be back until the afternoon. The child was sent to Aunt Liu's home in our village. Aunt Liu is a retired teacher and can't work because of her poor legs. The villagers asked her to look after the child and earn a salary. The child is picked up in the evening."
"Don't worry about them, just sit down and eat." Guan Ningquan said.
"How's Gensheng's partner?" Ye Li sat down and asked.
"It's settled. We're planning on having the wedding during the Chinese New Year. Li Li, you and Xiao Jiang must come back by then."
"Don't worry." Ye Li promised, "I will give you a big red envelope when the time comes."
"Wouldn't that make this kid very happy? Don't spoil him!"
"Hahahaha!" Guan Haisheng laughed heartily, "Gensheng will be so happy if he finds out."
"Okay, stop being happy and eat quickly. The food is getting cold." Liu Yan'e came out of the kitchen with a pot of mung bean soup and put it on the ground. "It's hot. Let's drink some mung bean soup to cool down."
After she finished speaking, she saw Ye Li squeezed next to Jiang Xun, so she stepped forward and pulled Ye Li up from his seat: "Come with me, this is the table for men, we women don't sit at this table."
Ye Li was slightly stunned: "Auntie, men and women still have to eat at separate tables?"
Liu Yan'e said with a laugh: "Men want to drink, let them eat and drink slowly. We women don't drink, let's eat at another table. Wait for me, I'll move the table."
Ye Li remembered the news he had read in his previous life, which said that in a certain place, women were not allowed to sit at the table during meals.
Although it is not said here that women are not allowed to sit at the table, they are not allowed to eat at the same table with men. What is the logic behind this?
She was thinking about this in her mind when she saw Liu Yan'e coming out of the east wing carrying another low table and two straw mats in her hands.
