When she arrived at the commune, Jiang Wanyue shamelessly went to the secretary to borrow a tractor.
Secretary Qin was stunned when he saw her bringing back such a big machine: "This machine must cost a lot of money, right?"
"It's not a high-precision machine. The entire body is made of iron plates. It's a discarded product that no one wants. It only costs 80 yuan." Jiang Wanyue licked her face and said, "When our fishery's new products are released, I will give them to the secretary for comments first."
Secretary Qin really admires her enthusiasm.
He shook his head and took out a remittance slip from his bag and handed it to her: "This is the manuscript fee slip sent by the post office at noon. You may not know that your painting has been published in the provincial capital pictorial again. I heard that it attracted the attention of the military. Early this morning, the military arranged for someone to drive to your Xiaojing Brigade to find the military families to distribute pensions. If I hadn't happened to be attending a meeting in the county, I would have gone there in person to see what was going on."
Jiang Wanyue took a look at the remittance slip and found that it was for twelve yuan. It seemed that the Provincial Painting Society had more money than the Provincial Daily Newspaper.
What she didn't expect was that because of her painting, the military actually found the Xiaojing Brigade. After receiving the pension, Mrs. Du's life should be better in the future.
Jiang Wanyue got on the tractor and took the sealing machine back to the brigade. She asked the tractor to drive directly to the door of Zhao Xiangbei's house.
At this moment, his house was filled with fragrance. Duan Jing was still studying the recipe of crispy fish fillets. Several people in the yard were eating the crispy fish fillets with painful expressions. Not only did they have to eat it, they also had to give their opinions. They had to tell what was different from the last time and how to improve it... A group of people were about to vomit. Aunt Zhao had run away long ago, and she was not worthy of being a taster.
After Jiang Wanyue entered the room, she asked Duan Jing to make a bowl of noodles for Tang Guohui. Although Duan Jing was pregnant, she was very skillful. She not only made the noodles, but also put a plate of crispy fish slices with various ingredients on it: "Brother Tang, there are three flavors of fish slices here. Try them all and see which one suits your appetite better."
Tang Guohui knew that the fishery was researching new products, so he took it seriously and tasted them carefully. After a long while, he said carefully, "This one is too spicy, and it's a bit refreshing. I think it's suitable for eating with rice. This one is sweeter, and I personally think it's okay to give some to children. The one in the middle has the right amount of flavor, and I think it's just right."
Jiang Wanyue tasted it and nodded, "I'll vote in the middle too."
Seeing her start voting, everyone present who had eaten also exercised their right to vote.
Finally, the one in the middle was elected with the highest number of votes.
"When we have enough funds in the future, we will develop different flavors for different groups. Now let's cast a wide net." Jiang Wanyue looked at Duan Jing and said, "Next, let's make all the fried fish slices together and start packaging in three days. We don't have much time."
After New Year's Day, we enter the twelfth lunar month. After Laba Festival, it is the New Year. Everyone will slowly start to prepare for New Year's goods. This is a very good sales opportunity, and their fishery must seize this opportunity.
At the same time, the brigades of Hongqi Commune began to catch fish in dry pits.
Xiaojing Brigade had only one group with a fish pond. One group asked the brigade for a diesel engine and started to pump out the water and drain the pond.
Everyone in the group was having a great time.
"Luckily we didn't agree to open some crappy fishery. Now we can share the fish, but they can't get a cent."
"The fish pond of our group is eight mu. Counting based on the number of people, each person can get at least two kilograms of fish. The whole family can get ten kilograms of fish in total. We can have a good New Year."
"The purpose of celebrating the New Year is to pray for prosperity every year. If there is not even fish on the table, what is the point of celebrating the New Year?"
“…”
When the people from the other seven groups heard this, they were all jealous.
"Hey, this is the first time in all these years that I can't even eat fish during the Chinese New Year."
"In the final analysis, we shouldn't open a fishery, alas."
"If you want to eat it later, just buy it from a group of people. You've made so much money from bamboo weaving, are you reluctant to buy even a single fish?" Old Mrs. Du said coldly, "We all voted to open the fishery before, so don't talk about this now. Besides, Deputy Secretary Jiang is a capable person. If she can get us the order from the bamboo weaving factory, she will definitely be able to revitalize the fishery. Our benefits are still to come!"
Before, Mrs. Du really didn’t believe in Jiang Wanyue’s ability.
But now, she has seen with her own eyes the power of knowledge. A painting has solved a major problem that had plagued the Du family for more than ten years. She is convinced.
If anyone dares to say bad things about Deputy Secretary Jiang again, she will be the first to disagree.
Jiang Wanyue really didn't know that she had gained a new fan invisibly, and she was so busy every day.
After making all the crispy fish fillets, she rushed to the county town to get 30,000 plastic packaging bags, and then the entire fish farm began the final busy work.
Everyone should wear hats and gloves, and those who prepare food must ensure hygiene and never allow unknown objects to fall in.
Although the workshop is extremely simple, Jiang Wanyue is in full control and the hygiene is quite satisfactory.
Four elderly people and a pregnant woman were responsible for packing, with three to four slices in one bag. Li Yiliang and Wang Ting were responsible for checking, and then transporting the packed crispy fish fillets to the sealing machine.
The sealing machine was operated by Lu Chengyuan. Aunt Wang and Aunt Li placed the packaging bags on the straight plate of the sealing machine on the left and right. Lu Chengyuan pressed the handle down. After about three to five seconds, the plastic bag was sealed.
Li Gaoshan is responsible for checking the finished products one by one, and then putting them into bamboo baskets and arranging them neatly...
There were eleven people in the cowshed, and each of them stuck to his own post, forming an assembly line. After working for more than two days, they finally packed all the crispy fish fillets.
Everyone was exhausted.
Jiang Wanyue took Lin Jin and Zhao Xiangbei with her and set out to develop the market.
First I went to the commune, gave some gifts to the leaders of the commune, and then took a bus to the county town.
Thirty thousand packages of crispy fish fillets are not a very large quantity, and should be enough to be digested within the county.
"Let's split up." Jiang Wanyue said, "I'll go to the Education Bureau's printing factory and paper mill, Xiangbei, you go to the textile factory and machinery factory, Lin Jin, you go to the candy factory and biscuit factory. When you're done, just come to the station and wait for us. We'll go back together then."
These factories have all cooperated with us in the past, and now, in the name of gratitude, we send some crispy fish fillets to them and provide them as free snacks in their canteens so that everyone can have a taste of the flavor.
This spicy crispy fish fillet is unique in this era. Once you have eaten it, you will probably want to eat it a second time. So, isn’t that the sales volume?
Jiang Wanyue went straight to the entrance of the Education Bureau and said enthusiastically, "Uncle Liu, do you still remember me? I'm Xiao Jiang."
"How could I not remember this? Who could forget a talent like Teacher Jiang?" Uncle Liu asked, "What are you doing at the Education Bureau this time? Who are you looking for? I'll go in and tell you."
Look, it's easier to get things done with acquaintances. Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "I'm not here to do any business today. I'm here to thank the Education Bureau for its support for our Xiaojing Brigade. This is a little gift from the fishery. It's delicious when you tear open the package and mix it with rice. I won't go in. Please help me send it to the canteen, Uncle Liu."
