Chapter 129 Selling as Fate dictates



The bamboo weaving factory also needs to repair the factory building after expanding its enrollment.

So the two factories simply started operations at the same time, each building a new row of factory buildings and repairing a few more warehouses.

Since the factory bought bricks, cement and tiles, Jiang Wanyue also bought some, planning to build a few houses behind her home.

These days, only the width of the residential land is regulated, and generally only two or three rooms are allowed to be built. However, no one cares how long it extends behind the house. Of course, it can't be too excessive.

Jiang Wanyue planned to build two rooms, one for Song Huaizhi and one for Song Yunying. The two children had grown up and could not always share a bed with her.

She drew a few simple pictures and gave them to the workers in charge of building the factory. After the fishery and bamboo weaving factory were completed, they would build a house for her family and she would be responsible for settling the wages.

The fishery is currently researching new products, duck feet, duck necks and duck wings.

With the experience of the first three products, the research and development speed this time was much faster.

Under Duan Jing's leadership, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang constantly put forward suggestions. Jiang Wanyue didn't participate much in the whole process, but only saw the finished product.

"It also has two flavors, spicy and sweet." Duan Jing frowned slightly, "That's right, no matter how good this thing tastes, it has no meat at all, just bones. Would anyone be willing to pay for it?"

Jiang Wanyue didn't explain, and smiled and said, "It's a waste to leave it there. Let's take it to the market and try it out. What if someone likes it? We don't have many duck feet and duck feet in stock. We'll sell each bag for 50 cents. We'll sell it as we like."

Not only Duan Jing, but also Zhang Ma and Wang Ma were stunned.

Fifty cents is really not a small amount of money. Add another twenty cents and you can buy a pound of fresh pork.

With this money, wouldn’t it be better to buy meat? What’s so delicious about buying duck bones?

However, they were used to obeying orders. Since Jiang Wanyue did this, she must have her reasons, so they continued to work one by one.

Jiang Wanyue likes to eat wings very much. After finishing three duck wings, she still felt a little unsatisfied.

People in later generations like this thing very much. She doesn’t know whether people of this era like it, but she has to try it to know, right?

"Wanyue, the department store in the provincial capital called!" Lin Jin walked in excitedly, "Last time I went to the provincial capital, they ignored me. I didn't expect that after we were on the newspaper, they took the initiative to come to our door and said they wanted 20,000 goods a month!"

Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "We don't supply goods to the provincial capital."

"Yes, that's it!" Lin Jin raised his hands in agreement, "Your adoptive mother will be pissed off!"

Jiang Wanyue refused for two main reasons.

First, she really didn't want to have anything to do with the Jiang family.

Second, if the products were put in department stores in the provincial capital, wouldn’t that give Jiang Rongjun an opportunity to set a trap?

Having been cheated by Jiang Rongjun twice, she would not give him a third chance.

"I will make my own arrangements for the market in the provincial capital." Jiang Wanyue raised her head. "You should train the two new salesmen. They will have to visit department stores frequently in various places. There are many things to pay attention to..."

After explaining the details, she paused and said, "Once the factory is in order, I will promote you to the director of the sales department, and your salary will be adjusted."

"Me? Director?" Lin Jin was stunned for a moment, "Isn't this too hasty?"

"You are very suitable for this position, don't be hasty." Jiang Wanyue smiled, "Before, your monthly base salary was 6 yuan plus a commission of 1%. Now that the market has been fully opened up, if you are given this salary, you can make hundreds of dollars a month. Letting you be the director is ostensibly a promotion, but in fact it is a pay cut. Just don't quit in anger."

There were very strict salary regulations in those days. Salaries were paid according to years of service or rank. Ordinary workers received a starting salary of 17.8 yuan, and each subsequent promotion would increase by 3 yuan until it reached a cap of 36 yuan.

She initially set up a commission model for Lin Jin in order to motivate Lin Jin to place more orders.

Now Lin Jin is in contact with four or five department stores alone, with a monthly sales volume of 30,000 to 40,000 goods. He can get 300 to 400 yuan in commission alone. You have to know that in this era, even the mayor cannot get such a high salary.

The fishery will develop towards standardization, and before the market is opened up, this wage model cannot be used. Being reported is no joke.

Lin Jin slammed the table and said, "I've wanted to tell you this for a long time. I feel guilty for taking a few hundred yuan a month! You're the person in charge, but you only get 18 yuan a month. Yes, just arrange a salary for me at this level. I'm a little scared if it's too high!"

Jiang Wanyue chuckled: "This month, we will still follow the previous model. I will pay you the director's salary next month."

It was a little after six in the evening when Jiang Wanyue finished her work for the day.

The fishery office building was built in Group 3. It only took her six or seven minutes to walk home. While walking on the road, she saw many people busy in the fields.

At this time of day, it is almost time to get off work. Everyone is waiting for the team leader to blow the loud whistle and then finish work quickly.

Just like the workers in later generations, they get off work at six o'clock, but by five-fifty they may have packed up their things and are ready to escape from the workplace.

But now, Jiang Wanyue discovered that many farmers were still working seriously and had no intention of stopping.

Song Dahai was standing by the field. Seeing her coming, he couldn't help but say, "Wanyue, you know what, after the country built an experimental field here, the old men in the village seem to have become more diligent. They used to be slow to start work and would stop working before the end of the day. Now it's completely different."

Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Maybe the fields are divided among households according to the number of people, and they need to record the data themselves, so they are more diligent."

She also suggested to Assistant Liu that he should reward villagers who carefully recorded data and conduct random checks from time to time. If anyone was found to have falsified data, thirty work points would be directly deducted. If the field that the person was responsible for had leading data in all aspects, he would be rewarded with corresponding work points... Under such measures, everyone would naturally become more diligent.

At present, each plot of land is under the responsibility of three households. If it is contracted according to families, everyone will pay more attention to it.

But these ideas were too advanced, Jiang Wanyue could only think about them silently in her mind and give up.

After returning home, Jiang Wanyue brought Huazi back from her mother-in-law's house.

Before, Huazi was left in the care of Song Laosan. Now Song Laosan has become a worker in a bamboo weaving factory and has to go to work every day, so Huazi was left in the care of her mother-in-law.

After bringing Huazi back, she started to cook dinner.

When she is not busy, she cooks dinner after get off work. After the meal, Song Huaizhi and Song Yunying just finish studying with Mr. Lu and Mr. Li and go home.

The family enjoyed their meal happily around the table.

Huazi slowly started to eat by himself, but his body was covered in oil, and Jiang Wanyue had to spend a long time cleaning up.

While I was busy, a man walked into the yard and asked, "Director, are you at home?"

Jiang Wanyue looked up and recognized the person. She was a middle-aged woman from Group 5 in the same village and also a temporary worker in the bamboo weaving factory.
