After coming out of the county party committee building, Jiang Wanyue still had things to do.
She asked Secretary Qin to go first, and she would take the bus back after she finished her work.
Secretary Qin said, "No hurry. I just happened to be going to the newspaper office. After I finish my work, we will meet here and go back together."
Jiang Wanyue knew that the postman would deliver newspapers, books and the like from the newspaper office to Xiaojing Brigade every three days, and there was no need for the secretary to pick them up herself. This was just an excuse they made up because they were afraid that she would feel psychologically burdened.
This time when she comes to the county, she has to buy an automatic sealing machine.
The first sealing machine was a second-hand one bought from a candied fruit factory for 80 yuan. It required manual operation, which was very tiring and slow, affecting shipments.
Now that the fishery has money in its account, it is natural to purchase the necessities.
I had been planning to find a truck, but since the secretary is so kind, I decided to use a tractor to transport the goods.
Jiang Wanyue asked Tang Guohui to drive the tractor to the entrance of the machinery factory.
The security guards here knew her, and after asking her purpose, they led her in.
Money makes things easier. After choosing the sealing machine, I paid for it and received the machine. This machine cost me fourteen hundred yuan.
Next, she went to the bicycle factory in the county town. This time, she specifically asked Zhao Xiangbei to approve funds to buy a bicycle for the fishery.
The most expensive brand these days is the Phoenix. She followed the trend and chose this model. Compared with the machine, the bicycle is much cheaper, costing only 180 yuan.
After buying things, Tang Guohui drove the tractor to the newspaper office, picked up Secretary Qin, and drove towards Hongqi Commune.
Because there were machines on the tractor, Secretary Qin asked Tang Guohui to deliver it directly to the Xiaojing Brigade Fishery.
Xiaojing Fishery is extremely busy, and the rumbling sounds of meat grinders and mixers can be heard from the factory.
Tang Guohui went down to take a look out of curiosity. He saw that everyone inside was working busily, boiling water, making tofu, killing ducks, removing duck feathers, cutting open the ducks' intestines, chopping the ducks, mincing the meat, stirring, cooking, slicing, bagging, sealing, and storing... There were workers at every position, all busy with their own work.
He couldn't help but say, "Deputy Secretary Jiang, I feel like your factory building seems to be too small."
Jiang Wanyue pointed to the empty land next to her and said, "Once there is more money in the account, this piece of land will also be built into a factory, probably by the end of the year."
Tang Guohui gave a thumbs up: "I admire you."
Jiang Wanyue asked Aunt Wang to take Tang Guohui to the cafeteria for dinner, while she took the instruction manual of the sealing machine and read it with the two new technicians.
The sealing machine is diesel-driven. You just need to follow the instructions step by step and place the products neatly to achieve automatic sealing. Previously, it could only seal four or five products per minute, but now it can seal more than ten. Although it is still very slow, it is already a huge improvement.
Just after adjusting the sealing machine, Lin Jin came back in a hurry.
Lin Jin went to several neighboring counties these two days. If the fishery's products only sold well in Lianhu County, other counties might not pay much attention to them. However, the sales in the city were also quite good, so Lin Jin's trip was very smooth.
She smiled and said, "I visited four counties, and only one department store in one county wanted to wait and see. The other three asked us to send them 5,000 packages of goods every month. If the sales are good, we will increase the quantity later."
Jiang Wanyue nodded.
Judging from this trend, the factory will soon run out of goods.
Fortunately, the first batch of fish fry released can be marketed in April.
In November last year, a total of 6,000 of the largest fish fry were released. After six months of intensive feeding, the average weight of each fish reached four or five kilograms, totaling nearly 30,000 kilograms.
Although the number is not large, when this batch of fish is almost used up, the second batch of fish fry can be caught soon.
By October this year, the fish caught by each team will weigh at least three kilograms. By then, there should be no need to worry about insufficient inventory.
Now we need to purchase a large amount of soybeans. Similarly, we have to go to other brigades to collect them. The more the better.
Besides that, there is also the issue of delivery.
In the past, there were only two department stores, one in the county and one in the city, and we only needed to assign one person to each store. Now, there are five department stores involved, and it takes five people to deliver the goods once. It is really inconvenient.
Ultimately, it’s because the fishery doesn’t have its own trucks.
If you have a car, the problem of delivery will be easily solved.
But the smallest truck costs more than 20,000 yuan, and the fishery currently has just over 10,000 yuan in its account, so we have to reserve 10,000 yuan for the commune to buy a harvester...
When Jiang Wanyue was looking at the account book in the office, a voice rang out at the door: "Director Jiang, good news!"
The people who called her the factory director were usually from the bamboo weaving factory. When they looked up, they saw Xiang Lingxiao standing at the door with an excited look on his face. He said, "The provincial candy factory just called and said they also want to order a batch of our bamboo weaving packaging. However, they don't want to have the same style as other factories. They hope to be more innovative. Price is not a problem."
When she heard that price was not a problem, Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Okay, I'll draw the design as soon as possible."
All the drawing tools are in the bamboo weaving factory branch, and her office is also there. After all, she is the factory director, so she has all the necessary style.
The pigments and paper are all newly purchased from the bamboo weaving factory, and the quality is impeccable.
Jiang Wanyue locked herself in the office for three hours and finally finished the drawing.
She asked someone to invite Xiang Lingxiao over.
She herself looked through the account book of the bamboo weaving factory branch.
Because the finance department was arranged by Xiang Lingxiao, the accountant would report financial issues directly to Xiang Lingxiao, so Jiang Wanyue didn't know much about the situation here.
You don’t know until you see it. It’s shocking.
She really didn't expect that the bamboo weaving factory now has such a large number of orders. After deducting various expenses, the net profit last month reached more than 5,000.
The branch factory has more than 30 employees and generates revenue of more than 5,000 yuan, which should be higher than the monthly income of the commune's main factory.
"Director Jiang, you're so fast." Xiang Lingxiao parked his bike, stepped onto the steps and walked in. "I just talked about it yesterday, and you've already finished drawing it today. Your efficiency is amazing."
Jiang Wanyue handed over a number of drawings.
Xiang Lingxiao was surprised: "So many?"
"There are actually two plans." She explained carefully, "The Provincial Candy Factory must have plenty of money, so I designed a relatively complex large round lacquered box with partitions added inside to make it look more upscale. This original box is more expensive, fifty cents. The remaining drawings are for another plan. I designed twelve drawings. If you look closely, they are the twelve zodiac animals. It's a series of packaging. The whole set costs ten yuan."
Xiang Lingxiao took a breath of cold air.
There are twelve boxes with the twelve zodiac animals, and a set costs ten yuan, which means that one box is about 83 cents. This price is too expensive.
He quickly shook his head: "No matter how rich the candy factory is, it will not be a sucker for this."
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Both plans have been designed. Let's give them to the factory director and let them choose."
