Coming out of the printing factory, Tian Youliang let out a long sigh.
They stayed here for nearly an hour and only sold ten kilograms, which is five yuan. They still have a long way to go before they can sell three hundred yuan.
"Xiao Jiang, if we continue to sell fish at this rate, we'll have to visit 50 or 60 factories." His head felt dizzy, "It'll take us half a month to finish."
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Uncle Tian, everything is difficult at the beginning. We have already taken the hardest first step. It will only get easier later. Let's go to the next one, the paper mill."
The paper mill is right next to the printing factory, just two steps away.
Jiang Wanyue first handed the security guard a certificate, and then said that she had just bought an old mimeograph machine from the printing factory next door, and wanted to come to the paper factory to ask which kind of paper was suitable for mimeographing, preparing to purchase in large quantities. Naturally, she was allowed in smoothly.
The person in charge recommended two types of paper to Jiang Wanyue: "This one is more expensive, this one is cheaper, which one do you want?"
Jiang Wanyue pointed at the cheaper ones and said, "Our school doesn't have much funding, so let's try this cheap one first. But I'm just here to ask today. I have to wait until tomorrow to pick up the machine before coming back to buy paper. I'll need 1,000 sheets first."
The paper mill doesn’t have any big customers, so although one thousand sheets are not a lot, it’s still a business. Even the smallest bit of money is still meat.
Before leaving, Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Just now the printing factory asked us to bring ten kilograms of fish from the brigade to their factory for a snack the day after tomorrow. I thought it was not yet the twelfth lunar month and there was no fish on the market. Your paper mill cafeteria probably couldn't buy fish either, so I asked, if you need fish too, we can bring it along tomorrow."
Paper mills and printing factories are sister factories, and they compete with each other openly or covertly.
When he heard that the cafeteria next door had fish, the person in charge couldn't sit still and immediately said, "I'll go to the logistics department to ask."
After a while, he came back and said, "We have more people in the paper mill, so we need 30 kilograms. Is that okay?"
"Of course." Jiang Wanyue said with a smile, "Then we'll see you the day after tomorrow."
After leaving the paper mill, Tian Youliang finally saw hope.
We have sold 40 kilograms so far, which is 20 yuan, and we are getting closer and closer to the target.
He gained confidence and said, "I remember that I know someone at the cannery. Why don't we go to the cannery and give it a try?"
Jiang Wanyue glanced at the map. The cannery was not far away. It would take more than ten minutes to walk back. She nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
The cannery is much larger than the paper mill and printing factory. The factory building alone occupies a large area and has two to three hundred employees.
Tian Youliang suppressed his excitement and said, "If we add extra food to the canteen of the cannery, it will start at at least 50 to 60 kilograms."
When he arrived at the cannery, he went directly to the guard room and said he wanted to see a classmate.
In fact, he hadn't seen this classmate for many years. It was only last year when this classmate's relative got married, and the relative happened to be a relative of his relative, that the two met at the banquet. Only then did he know that his classmate worked in the county cannery and was a person in charge of a workshop.
He was a little embarrassed to come to this classmate before, but when he saw Jiang Wanyue working so hard, he was infected and wanted to give it a try.
After a while, a man in his forties came out from the gate, saw Tian Youliang, and greeted him with a smile: "What brings such a busy man like Secretary Tian here? Isn't your brigade busy now? When I have a day off, I'll go to your brigade and we'll have a drink."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanyue knew that there was probably no hope.
Because normally, shouldn't we invite old classmates to come into the factory and sit for a while? If they are not even willing to invite them in, it means it's just a matter of appearances.
Tian Youliang was so excited that he didn't notice it for a moment, and said enthusiastically: "Old Zou, your cannery is doing well, and I think you are a busy man. I came here today to discuss something with you."
Old Zou's face changed slightly. He knew that no one would come to see him for no reason. He still smiled and said, "What's our relationship? If you have something to say, just tell me. I will make sure it's done for you!"
"I feel relieved when you say that." Tian Youliang said, "It's like this. Our team has several hundred kilograms of fish to sell. I wonder if your cannery wants them. Even if you want 50 or 60 kilograms to supplement the canteen, it would be a great help to me. I'll..."
"Secretary Tian, it's not that I won't help you, but this is not within my scope of responsibility." Old Zou said with an embarrassed look, "I'm not familiar with the people in the logistics department, so I can't have a say in this matter. Secretary Tian, why don't you try another factory?"
Tian Youliang said hurriedly: "Old Zou, you just take care of the connection, I..."
"Uncle Tian." Jiang Wanyue pulled Tian Youliang's sleeve and said, "Forget it, let's go to the next one."
After spending most of the day together, Tian Youliang had unknowingly started to revolve around Jiang Wanyue in everything. After hearing what she said, he immediately gave up and waved goodbye to Lao Zou.
"Uncle Tian, what time is it?"
"It's three o'clock." Tian Youliang glanced at his watch. "It's already so late."
The two of them came to the county by car early in the morning and have been busy until now, without even having lunch.
Jiang Wanyue glanced at the map and said, "Then let's go to the last one today, the textile factory, and give it a try."
The largest factory in Lianhu County is the textile factory. It is the only factory with over a thousand employees and occupies a large area.
Jiang Wanyue already had a plan in mind. Once she met the person in charge, she should be able to sell around 100 kilograms.
The textile factory is a leading large enterprise. If the textile factory buys their fish, the road ahead should be easier.
After she had almost finished her plan in her mind, she happened to walk to the gate of the textile factory.
A big factory is a big factory, and the gates are much more luxurious. Just as the two were about to go forward, they heard the sound of a horn behind them.
Jiang Wanyue looked back and saw a white car driving from the road to the gate of the textile factory. This was the first time she had seen a proper car in her life. To be honest, the style was a bit old-fashioned, but it was also enviable enough.
As soon as the car drove over, the factory gate automatically opened to both sides.
The car drove past Jiang Wanyue, and suddenly, it stopped, the window slowly lowered, revealing a face.
"Jiang Wanyue? Why are you here?"
In the car window was the face of a young woman, wearing makeup and dressed elegantly, she looked like a city girl.
Jiang Wanyue opened the memory of her original body and searched hard. Finally, she recognized the person in front of her. It turned out to be the biological daughter of her original body's adoptive parents, Jiang Rongjun.
Eight years ago, the original body had just graduated from high school. When he returned home, he saw a girl about his own age at home. Only then did he realize that he was adopted, and the girl in front of him was the biological daughter of his adoptive parents.
The original person had been pampered for more than ten years, and when he suddenly learned about this, he couldn't accept it at all and made a scene at home.
Originally, her adoptive parents had some feelings for her, but they were ruined by her original body. Then, she was sent to the countryside as an educated youth by her adoptive parents.
It is conceivable how much the original body hated Jiang Rongjun.
But Jiang Wanyue didn't hate it.
It was like a perfect match, God was helping her.
She walked forward with a smile: "It's Rongjun. I haven't seen you for many years. You have become more and more beautiful. I almost didn't recognize you."
