The fifth day of the first lunar month.
When Lin Jin got married, many people in the village held their weddings after the Chinese New Year, simply inviting a few tables to a lively party.
Although Tian Dawei was married for the second time, his father was the brigade secretary and had extensive connections, so they could simply arrange for nearly twenty tables to be served.
Jiang Wanyue gave a two-dollar gift and had two meals.
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, there was another wedding banquet. It was a uncle from the Song family marrying his daughter, and the gift money was another two yuan.
The Chinese New Year ended with visiting relatives and friends every day. On the seventh day of the first lunar month, the fishery officially started working. Jiang Wanyue gave everyone a 50-cent red envelope, wishing the fishery all the best in the new year.
On the first day of work, the fishery welcomed a guest, Secretary Fang from the Liberation Brigade.
Secretary Fang originally came to find Tian Youliang to inquire about fish farming.
Tian Youliang waved his hand and said, "All matters concerning the fishery are handled by our deputy secretary of the brigade. I don't know anything. You can go directly to Group 3. The only two-story cement building over there is the fishery office. She is there."
Secretary Fang had no choice but to come over here to find Jiang Wanyue and said very politely, "Happy New Year, Deputy Secretary Jiang."
"Happy New Year, Secretary Fang." Jiang Wanyue smiled at everyone she met and welcomed them into the reception room, where a thermos kettle was placed specially with a tea box and a few enamel cups on the side, so she could easily make a cup of tea and hand it to Secretary Fang.
Secretary Fang couldn't help but say: "The office of your fishery is almost as good as that of the commune."
"After all, it's a new house. It may look a little strange, but it will become the same after a while." Jiang Wanyue said with a smile, "How come Secretary Fang has time to come to our Xiaojing Fishery?"
She actually guessed what it was.
Before the New Year, she was thinking that after the New Year was over and she had finished her basic tasks, she would go to the branch secretaries of other brigades to sell the fish fry to them.
Before I even set out, the secretary of the neighboring branch came to my door.
Last year, Xiaojing Brigade was selling fish in full swing, and the Jiefang Brigade was the first to follow suit. Although it didn't make a name for itself, it at least showed that Secretary Fang was bold.
She likes to work with brave people.
Secretary Fang took a sip of the tea and knew that it was not the coarse tea from the village. It should be the tea bought from the department store to entertain guests. This shows that Xiaojing Fishery must have a lot of surplus after the house was built. How much money did they make...
He said, "We are all from the Red Flag Commune, so I won't beat around the bush and will speak directly. Last autumn and winter, your Xiaojing Brigade was either selling fish or weaving bamboo baskets. Most people in the village made money, which made us in the Jiefang Brigade jealous. You know, if you hadn't bought 2,000 kilograms of fish last year, the Jiefang Brigade would have been even poorer. It's okay for everyone to be poor, but if you all become rich, you won't be able to live like this, isn't that right?"
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "At the end of last year, the bamboo weaving factory also recruited temporary workers in the Jiefang Brigade. There will be more opportunities like this in the future. Secretary Fang doesn't need to worry."
Secretary Fang put down the enamel cup and said, "To put it bluntly, I just want to follow your Xiaojing Brigade to raise fish, but I don't know if Deputy Secretary Jiang is willing to take us with him."
"If Secretary Fang wants to raise fish, I will of course fully support it, but..." She paused and said, "Secretary Fang also knows that Xiaojing Brigade had a batch of fish that was almost incurred by huge losses. Raising fish can make money, but it may also lead to a loss. Can Secretary Fang accept any result?"
Secretary Fang hesitated.
After all, running a fishery is not just his job, it's the whole brigade's job.
When it comes to the collective, there are so many things to consider.
He thought for a while and stood up: "Let's take a long-term view on this matter, eh."
Jiang Wanyue: “…”
She thought Secretary Fang was very brave.
It turned out that she was overthinking it.
She then stood up and said, "Secretary Fang, please sit down first. We can talk more."
Secretary Fang sat down again.
"If Secretary Fang wants to raise fish, our Xiaojing Brigade will provide basic guidance and teach you how to raise fish." Jiang Wanyue said with a smile, "After the fish are on the market, the fish that Jiefang Brigade can't sell will be taken by our Xiaojing Brigade. This way, you don't have to bear any risks. How do you think?"
Secretary Fang was also a smart man. He knew what was going on as soon as he heard it.
He had already inquired about it. Xiaojing Fishery took away 2,000 kilograms of grass carp from them last year and used them to make crispy fish fillets. It was said that they were selling like hot cakes in the county.
From this perspective, you can't make much money from raising fish, so crispy fish fillets are more profitable.
He immediately said, "Deputy Secretary Jiang, let me ask you one more shameless question. Can you lead our Liberation Brigade to make crispy fish slices? Yes, and fish tofu. I heard that many people in the county and city are rushing to buy it."
Jiang Wanyue had another comment about the party secretary, which was that he was thick-skinned.
But she herself is thick-skinned, so this is not a disadvantage.
She smiled and said, "I fully support Secretary Fang's plan to raise fish, but these crispy fish slices and fish tofu...we at Xiaojing Fishery have spent a lot of effort to research them, so the secret recipe will not be shared with others for the time being."
Secretary Fang looked a little unhappy.
If you support fish farming, it means you can’t make much money from it.
When someone asked him to learn how to make crispy fish fillets, he refused without mercy, which meant he didn't want others to steal his business.
This girl looks young, but why is she so cunning?
Secretary Fang pretended to leave.
Jiang Wanyue picked up the tea calmly.
The fact that this person came to me on his own initiative shows that he really wants to make money.
The profit from raising fish is indeed not as much as that from selling crispy fish fillets, but it is still a lot.
Moreover, she promised to buy all the unsold fish of the Liberation Brigade, which was equivalent to solving the biggest problem of opening a fishery.
The first thing Xiaojing Fishery faced was the hell mode.
Now, the Liberation Brigade can directly enter the simple mode with the experience card in hand.
The other party was still not satisfied.
As the two were facing each other, Duan Jing walked to the door and whispered, "Deputy Party Secretary, the Party Secretary of Fengshou Brigade is here."
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Last time when Secretary Tian's family held a wedding, I ran into Secretary Feng. Secretary Feng told me that he wanted to ask for advice on fish farming. I didn't expect him to come on the first day of work. Duan Jing, please serve Secretary Feng a cup of tea and ask him to wait for a while. I'll come over after I'm done with my work here."
Duan Jing nodded and walked over.
Secretary Fang suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
Fengshou Brigade is the poorest village in their Hongqi Commune. Eighty percent of the houses in other villages are adobe, while eighty percent of the houses in Fengshou Village are thatched houses. You can imagine how poor it is.
It’s easy to tell that the Fengshou Team must also want to raise fish, and they came here to learn from their experience.
The Harvest Team will definitely accept the conditions that Jiang Wanyue just proposed.
With the cooperation of Fengshou Brigade, will Xiaojing Brigade still guide the Jiefang Brigade in fish farming?
Secretary Fang sat up straight and said, "Deputy Secretary Jiang, you said before that you would buy up all the fish that couldn't be sold. Does that mean anything?"
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "How about this, we draft an agreement, go to the commune, and ask Secretary Qin to be a witness, so Secretary Fang can rest assured, right?"
