Chapter 77 Incubator



The factory facilities of Shishi Fishery are basically new.

There are three incubators, one of which was purchased three years ago, and the other two were purchased half a year ago and are as good as new.

Jiang Wanyue couldn't afford the new one, so she set her sights on the older one: "I see several screws here are rusted, can this one still be used?"

"Of course." Director Liu said, "We bought this one when we first opened the fishery. With this incubator, we no longer have to go to the provincial capital to buy fish fry. Look, we even have the operating instructions."

Jiang Wanyue opened it and saw that the instruction manual was in English. That is to say, this incubator was imported from abroad and must be expensive.

As expected, Director Liu continued, "This incubator is an imported product obtained from a machinery factory through connections in the city. It can incubate 300,000 fish eggs at a time. It is the most advanced product in the country. It cost 3,800 yuan to buy it. We have used it for three years. After depreciation, how about you pay 3,200 yuan?"

Lin Jin was stunned.

After using it for three years, it still costs 3,200 yuan. I might as well just rob people.

In her opinion, it is not necessary to buy this fish fry incubator...

Jiang Wanyue originally wanted to buy it because it was cheap, but she didn't expect it to be the most expensive, so she had to give up.

Moreover, she had just observed that this foreign product needed electricity to be used, and the Hongqi Commune Brigade had no electricity, so it could not be used at all.

She pointed to another one and said, "What about this one?"

"This was bought from the machinery factory in the provincial capital. It can hatch 30,000 fish eggs at a time. The original price was 1,200 yuan, and it has only been used for less than half a year." Director Liu paused and said, "If you really want it, it's 1,100 yuan. This price is much more affordable than buying it in the provincial capital yourself."

Jiang Wanyue pulled the corner of her lips.

It was only a hundred dollars short, so she might as well buy it at the machinery factory. With Mei Gaofei's relationship, she might even be able to get a discount.

She smiled and said, "I just came back from the provincial capital machinery factory. I had no money, so I thought of buying second-hand. No matter how long this incubator has been used, it is still second-hand, right? If it still costs more than a thousand yuan to resell it, then our fishery decided to buy a new product. If there are any problems in the future, we can directly ask the provincial capital machinery factory for repairs."

"Hey, aren't we still negotiating?" Director Liu said quickly, "I'll make the offer, and you can bargain. It's easy to talk."

The fishery farms in several nearby cities all have their own incubators, but there are basically no fishery farms in the county, let alone the commune brigades. Finally someone came to inquire, and he didn't want to let the matter go.

He asked tentatively, "How about nine hundred dollars?"

Jiang Wanyue shook her head: "I can only offer 500 at most."

"You, you're bargaining too hard!" Director Liu's eyes went dark. "We bought it for twelve thousand yuan, and the fishery is facing closure without even using it. It's not an exaggeration to say it's brand new, but it's only five hundred. It's really too much."

"You're asking for nine hundred, which is a bit too much." Jiang Wanyue curled her lips, "Add another three hundred and I can buy a new one. I'll just go to the provincial capital directly."

Chief Liuba sighed, "How about eight hundred?"

Jiang Wanyue also sighed, "It's not that eight hundred is not enough, but we just don't have that much money."

"Then, then seven hundred should be ok, right?" Director Liu turned around and pointed at a pile of things on the floor of the warehouse. "I'll give you some other things the fishery needs. This scale looks old, but it can still be used. And this cart is also very convenient for transporting fodder. How about that?"

Jiang Wanyue's eyes swept over.

The scale looks OK at first glance, and the cart is also OK. It is indeed a necessity for their fishery, and they will no longer have to borrow from the brigade headquarters.

Lin Jin knew at a glance that the deal was done. She walked over with a smile and said shamelessly, "If you add this fishing net, and give us ten waders and thirty pairs of plastic gloves, we'll agree to a deal of seven hundred yuan."

"You girls nowadays are really good at business." Director Liu shook his head helplessly. These things have been used for three years and they really can't be sold at a high price. But if you go somewhere else to buy them, it will cost a lot of money. He nodded and said, "We don't have a car in the factory. You can come and get them yourself. Let's make an appointment."

Jiang Wanyue nodded happily: "Then tentatively plan to come over on the afternoon of the 26th."

After delivering the fish to the provincial capital, I can come directly to Shishi to pick up the goods, which is very convenient.

After we finished talking about this, it was already dark.

With the introduction of Director Liu, Jiang Wanyue and Lin Jin went to a nearby guesthouse, ate something and went to bed.

The next morning, the two took a bus to Shishi City, changed buses halfway, and finally arrived at the commune at around three o'clock in the afternoon.

Lin Jin felt weak all over. For the past three days, he either took a car or walked. He was busy all the time, had poor sleep, and had to eat reluctantly. He was exhausted.

"You go back and tell everyone the good news first. I'm going to the commune office." After getting off the car, Jiang Wanyue turned around and walked towards the commune office without even stopping.

Lin Jin admired her more and more. She was like a spinning top, spinning non-stop and never feeling tired.

After walking a few steps, Jiang Wanyue arrived at the commune and met Yao Ling at the door.

Yao Ling was startled: "Teacher Jiang... Oh, Deputy Party Secretary Jiang, where have you been? Why do you look so exhausted?"

Jiang Wanyue looked down and felt a little embarrassed.

On the way to the provincial capital, my luggage was stolen. I had planned to buy some clothes to change in the provincial capital, but I really didn't have time.

And because I had agreed to sell fish on the first day, I felt that there was no need for it later, so I just wore the same outfit every day. After three days, it was wrinkled and looked a bit shabby.

She coughed and said, "I just got off the car and didn't have time to go back and change clothes. I'm sorry to have embarrassed Director Yao. By the way, is the secretary here? I came to see him for something."

"The secretary just came back from a meeting in the county." Yao Ling pointed inside and whispered, "It seems that he was criticized by the county party secretary and is in a bad mood. You should be careful."

Jiang Wanyue nodded, then walked in and knocked on the office door.

Secretary Qin raised his head and asked, "Why is Xiao Jiang here?"

"Why does the secretary look unhappy?" Jiang Wanyue walked in with a smile, "Did you run into any trouble?"

Secretary Qin held a cigarette in his hand, ready to light it, but seemed to take the presence of a lady into consideration, so he held back and sighed, "It's the end of the year now, the county compiled economic data, and Hongqi Commune ranked last."

Hearing this, Jiang Wanyue was actually somewhat happy.

In this era when the whole country is red and politics is the main focus, the county is criticized for poor economic development, which shows that the county magistrate attaches great importance to this aspect.

She said, "If the economy is bad, then we should develop it. The secretary doesn't have to be upset about it."

"Developing the economy...it sounds easy." Secretary Qin smiled bitterly.

Hongqi Commune owned less than ten factories and could barely keep them running. The taxes it paid were barely enough to make ends meet.
