"Mom, where are we going this time?" Feng Fuya asked, looking at Feng Biluo with a hint of surprise and astonishment in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Feng Biluo looked at Feng Fuya and said, "It's in the plains. I heard there's been a problem with the machine development there." Looking at Feng Fuya, she said, "We need to go and take a look."
Because during this period, many places allowed free trade, some people had other ideas, and of course, some people wanted to take shortcuts, making it almost impossible for factories to continue operating.
Of course, no matter what we do, the factory can't really go under. Hearing this, Feng Fuya nodded and said, "Over the years, we've traveled all over the country." Feng Fuya laughed.
Because of her association with Feng Biluo, she has traveled all over the country with him over the years. At times like these, she is especially happy. When she heard this, Feng Biluo smiled.
"So what have you learned during this period?" Feng Fuya originally wanted to study, but over the years, her self-study ability was not bad. In addition, when she was with Feng Biluo, things were even better. So Feng Biluo guided Feng Fuya to study on her own.
Upon hearing this, Feng Fuya looked at Feng Biluo in front of her, a smile on her face, and then looked at the fields outside, saying, "It's so flat here, there are practically no hills left."
Looking at all this, Feng Biluo felt that everything around her was amazing. When she heard this, she also looked outside. After the train arrived at the station, someone came to greet her with a banner that read, "Welcome Village Chief Feng to Pingyuan City." Looking at the banner, Feng Biluo felt a bit of a headache, but she still went downstairs.
As they walked over, the people were stunned. "Hello, I am Feng Biluo." Hearing Feng Biluo's words, they simply couldn't believe it. Was this woman really thirty-six years old? She looked as if time had stood still for her.
"This is my daughter." Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Feng Fuya and then at Feng Biluo. Calling her a daughter was an understatement; they were more like sisters. The leader, however, quickly extended his hand when he looked at Feng Biluo.
"Hello, I am Shangguan Guoquan, who came to pick you up this time." The man said, and then took Feng Biluo back directly. Although there was a banner, it had been hung up a few days ago. Shangguan Guoquan used an oxcart to pick them up.
Looking at Feng Biluo, he felt a little awkward, but fortunately, Feng Biluo and Feng Fuya didn't mind and got into the car directly, which relieved Shangguan Guoquan. When Shangguan Guoquan took Feng Biluo back, Feng Biluo asked him some questions.
The question they were asking was simply what was happening here. "It's all about the rice. The price of rice is different, so some people started making a fuss, thinking they were doing a better job selling it, which led to the appearance of old, stale rice."
Some people felt that their family's food was not as good as others', and they were resentful, so they started to hoard the goods. The problem was that this was a place used to grow food, so something bad soon happened. Feng Biluo nodded when she heard this.
"You wouldn't have accepted this old rice, would you?" Feng Biluo couldn't help but frown and ask. Upon hearing this, Shangguan Guoquan fell silent, but Feng Biluo's lips twitched involuntarily, because at this moment Feng Biluo understood.
Shangguan Guoquan's silence was an admission that he would take the old rice. "You're breaking the rules," Shangguan Guoquan sighed upon hearing this.
“Yes, that’s what I said too. The problem is that after the factory was built, it was quickly occupied by some people. It slowly became their factory. Now they don’t care whether the factory is losing money or not. I wanted to talk to you because I have something I want to ask you to see what to do.” He looked at Feng Biluo in front of him and said.
Shangguan Guoquan also felt a headache coming on. At first, everyone was happy to build the factory, but later they found that after the factory was built, many people had to go to work as a family, some people couldn't go to work at all, and they also bought rice of all kinds, good and bad.
Under such circumstances, many places initially bought their rice, but later they directly blacklisted their rice from the mainland. No one was willing to buy old rice or rice with defects.
Since it all costs money, who would want to waste money like this? Upon hearing this, Feng Biluo looked at Shangguan Guoquan and said directly, "This factory is beyond saving. The only way to save it is to open a new factory."
The factory had been losing money for three years, and the reason was that it had too many relatives and friends. The factory was full of relatives and friends, so there was no need to work; it was basically a base for stealing food.
"Actually, the higher-ups are planning to thoroughly investigate this matter." Upon hearing this, Shangguan Guoquan said, "That's why I wanted to ask you to come and save us." Yes, the people above the factory were going to start investigating, and figuring out how to save themselves after the investigation was a troublesome matter.
"We'll talk about it when we get there," Feng Biluo said upon hearing this. At that moment, a group of people were eating and drinking in the rice mill.
"I heard they're looking for that Feng Biluo. That woman's here, could it be that they're going to investigate?" Someone asked worriedly after finishing their meal.
"What are you afraid of? We haven't done anything wrong. We're buying rice according to reasonable requirements. Besides, these days, it's all your own business as a peasant." They even want old rice that has been stored for a while. If you don't have a powerful backer, don't even mention old rice. They'll drive down the price of even the best new rice. As for Feng Biluo who came at this moment, they didn't take him seriously at all.
