Jiang Wanyue asked Wu Zhiqiang to drive the truck to the agricultural school.
It is indeed convenient to have your own car. It used to take more than an hour to take the bus, but now it only takes less than half an hour.
She took the signed documents, straightened her clothes, and walked towards the agricultural school.
Zhao Xiangbei got out of the car and said, "Jiang Jie, I'll go in with you."
The two of them walked with ease to a research building they had visited before. They were lucky because they ran into Professor Zhou's assistant as soon as they entered.
"Assistant Liu, do you remember me? I'm the deputy secretary of Xiaojing Brigade." Jiang Wanyue handed over the documents. "A few days ago, we applied to Professor Zhou to participate in this year's hybrid rice trial planting project. Professor Zhou asked me to go back and get the villagers and leaders to sign. It has been done."
Assistant Liu naturally remembered her.
When they were in dire straits, someone offered to take part in the experiment, which was like a timely help.
I didn't have any expectations for this.
But the other party actually said that all the villagers had signed?
Assistant Liu quickly picked up the document and flipped through it. Sure enough, he saw several pages full of names and fingerprints. It was obvious that they were not fake.
He asked in disbelief: "How did you, Xiaojing Brigade, get the villagers to sign?"
He visited so many brigades and talked till his mouth dried up, but he failed to convince even one person.
He knew how difficult this was.
I can't believe someone actually did it.
"For this kind of new project, everyone is afraid of accidents. As long as someone can cover the cost and the villagers' interests are not harmed, everyone will naturally agree." Jiang Wanyue grinned, "With this document, our Xiaojing Brigade can participate in the trial planting, right?"
Assistant Liu nodded: "Come in with me."
After walking in, Assistant Liu took out a pile of documents and asked Jiang Wanyue to sign.
Jiang Wanyue did not sign rashly, but read each one carefully. After reading them, she said there was no problem and signed her name in the signature area.
Assistant Liu also breathed a sigh of relief: "After Xiaojing Brigade becomes a pilot area, the Agricultural School will arrange a team to be responsible for this project. During this period, the food and accommodation of the team will be provided by your Xiaojing Brigade. Don't worry, the Agricultural School will allocate funds."
Jiang Wanyue nodded: "Our team will prepare everything and wait for the team to arrive."
It is now mid-March. We will start raising rice seedlings at the end of March, and then transplanting rice seedlings. The growing period of rice is about three and a half months. Due to the influence of climate, it is normal to start earlier or later.
In other words, the experimental fields will produce results around July.
On her way back from the provincial capital, Jiang Wanyue took a detour to the provincial capital's duck farm and bought a thousand ducks. One reason was that she didn't want to drive empty-handed as the fuel cost was quite high; the other was that all the ducks at the county duck farm had been bought up by her and the next batch would not be ready for sale until half a month later. In order to ensure inventory, production had to be increased.
As too many ducks are killed, dealing with their feathers becomes a problem.
Jiang Wanyue thought about down jackets in future generations. She even went shopping in a department store in the provincial capital. There were only cotton coats, and the salesperson had never heard of down jackets.
In other words, there were no down jackets in those days.
The technical content of this thing should be quite high, and it is not something that a layman like her can figure out, so she asked Wu Zhiqiang to take the feathers to the county feather factory and sell them. The county feather factory mainly uses feathers to produce feather rings, feather headdresses, feather brooms, etc.
She plans to use the other parts of the duck, such as the neck, feet, and head, to develop new products.
When Jiang Wanyue was leading people to research new products.
The bamboo weaving factory's twelve zodiac bamboo weaving box sets are selling out.
"Director Jiang, great news!" Xiang Lingxiao ran in sweating profusely. "The candy factory has placed an additional order for 5,000 sets of the twelve zodiac animals, and the provincial biscuit factory also wants to order similar sets of boxes. Can Director Jiang still design them?"
"Of course there is no problem with the design." Jiang Wanyue handed him a cup of tea. "An order for 5,000 sets of the twelve zodiac animals means 60,000 pieces of bamboo weaving. I'm afraid we can't make them in a short time."
Xiang Lingxiao also had a headache.
The bamboo weaving factory has been established for nearly twenty years. It has been neither very successful nor very successful every year or every month, and the number of employees has always remained at around twenty people.
Since the end of last year, the factory has been recruiting people.
There is a lot to do at the main factory, and we now have more than 40 workers.
The branch factory has more than 30 full-time employees and more than 50 temporary workers, but it is still not enough.
In just less than half a year, the number of employees in the bamboo weaving factory has exceeded 100, and it has become a factory with more than 100 employees. This is really cause for celebration!
"Recruit people, then recruit people!" Xiang Lingxiao said, "The factory buildings are not enough, we need to build another row of factory buildings and a warehouse!"
Jiang Wanyue nodded: "After this series of boxes are launched, there will definitely be many factories that will come to customize them. We can't hire too few workers this time. We need to hire more and train them as soon as possible."
Xiang Lingxiao agreed, "We need to hire a few more workers who can design the boxes. It would be best if they have been educated and can draw. This way they can help you share some of the work."
The two of them discussed and decided to recruit another 30 full-time employees.
In fact, in Jiang Wanyue's opinion, this number of people is not enough.
The main thing is that the work of bamboo weaving cannot be replaced by machines and can only be done by human hands. Therefore, as time goes by, more and more workers will be recruited.
Fortunately, the processing workshop at the fish farm has many machines and few employees, but the benefits created are no less.
They are recruiting people in full swing.
The other brigades could no longer sit still and went to the commune to complain to Secretary Qin.
Jiang Wanyue was called away by people from the commune when she was busy designing a bamboo box.
She rode her bicycle to the commune and saw that the branch secretaries of the other nine brigades were all there, looking at her with accusatory expressions.
She touched her nose and said, "Dear Party secretaries, what happened?"
Secretary Fang spoke first: "Your Xiaojing Brigade is developing better and better. Almost every household has a worker. In our Jiefang Brigade, we only have one formal worker at most!"
Secretary Feng of the Fengshou Brigade sighed: "We are even worse off. We don't have a single regular employee. Only four of us are lucky enough to work as temporary workers at the Xiaojing Bamboo Weaving Factory."
"Deputy Party Secretary Jiang, when you move forward, remember to take us brothers in distress with you. The villagers in our brigade come to me every day to complain about their grievances, which makes me very anxious."
"Yes, Deputy Party Secretary Jiang, please help us. We are all from the same commune. We were one family eight hundred years ago."
Secretary Qin spoke up at the right time: "You old-timers are useless. How can you put all the pressure on a little girl? Aren't you ashamed?"
Having said that, Jiang Wanyue knew clearly that Secretary Qin definitely also wanted Xiaojing Brigade to lead other brigades.
She said, "The food currently produced by our Xiaojing Brigade uses ducks as raw materials. The ducks in the county duck farm are completely insufficient. If the branch secretaries have any ideas, you can try to run a duck farm."
After these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent.
I followed the trend and opened a fish farm before. I raised fish, but because they have not grown up yet, I haven’t seen any profit so far.
The fish haven't even grown up yet, so raising ducks doesn't fit their philosophy of taking a steady and cautious approach.
