The Liberation Brigade did not have any dry pits.
They are adjacent to the Xiaojing Brigade, so whatever the Xiaojing Brigade does will be reported to their brigade in less than half a day.
When their branch secretary and team leader heard that Xiaojing Team had made money, they could no longer sit still, so they decided to follow suit and sell fish as well.
However, after several days of selling, the fish were not sold, and the villagers were not allowed to fish without permission, so the resentment of the villagers accumulated little by little.
A group of people complained endlessly.
"The Xiaojing Brigade was able to sell fish because they were lucky. Do our branch secretary and brigade leader think that everyone can be so lucky?"
"Speaking of which, Xiaojing Brigade is really lucky. I heard that all the work of the commune's bamboo weaving factory is handed over to their brigade. My cousin who married into the brigade said that she has earned several yuan in the past few days."
"Hey, female comrade, how did your Xiaojing Brigade get the order from the bamboo weaving factory?"
The eldest lady was also a dexterous person. She looked at Jiang Wanyue eagerly and asked.
Jiang Wanyue was not sure how to answer this question.
She returned to the original topic: "We are collecting fish at Xiaojing Fishery. Can you please ask your Party Secretary to come over and talk?"
The woman couldn't believe it and said, "Aren't you also selling fish? Are you buying fish to be a middleman and make a profit?"
Jiang Wanyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "We also buy it at the market price of 50 cents per pound, and we will never let your team suffer a loss."
After hearing this, the old woman went to call for help.
After a while, Secretary Fang of the Liberation Brigade came over. He had heard of Jiang Wanyue's name a long time ago. It was shocking enough that a woman at such a young age could become a deputy secretary of the branch. Unexpectedly, she actually led the fishery out of the Hongqi Commune.
but--
Secretary Fang said, "I heard that you have a batch of fish on hand, a full 3,000 kilograms, and you can't even sell them yourself, so why are you buying our fish?"
He was worried that there was something fishy going on.
He insisted on selling fish despite the opposition of everyone in the brigade. If something went wrong, he would have no chance of becoming the branch secretary.
"Secretary Fang's news is a little delayed." Jiang Wanyue shook hands with him and said, "Our fishery has developed a new product called crispy fish slices, which has successfully opened up the market in the county. Now the inventory is insufficient, so we want to buy a batch of fish. The New Year is coming soon, and the fish from each brigade has been distributed. I am worried about where to buy fish. If Secretary Fang is willing to sell the fish to me, he will be a great benefactor of our fishery."
Secretary Fang had never heard of this before, but seeing Jiang Wanyue's frank expression, he had no reason to doubt it. He asked, "How much do you want?"
Jiang Wanyue actually wanted them all.
In her opinion, the market for crispy fish fillets has been opened and they will soon be sold out, so the inventory must be replenished.
But she also has to face the fact that there is not enough money.
She had to save some money to build a factory, because as the market for crispy fish fillets opened up, production had to be increased, and Zhao Xiangbei's family obviously didn't have enough.
Besides, if the department store really wanted to come down for an inspection, the place was so shabby that it would easily bring bad publicity to the crispy fish fillets.
As a result, there is not much money available.
She calculated for a moment and said, "Two thousand kilograms first."
Secretary Fang was immediately overjoyed.
Their team had nearly 10,000 kilograms of fish in total. He and the team leader ran around for many days and only sold more than 300 kilograms. Now they have sold 2,000 kilograms at once. He feels that the pressure on his shoulders has been relieved a lot.
He immediately said, "I will arrange for people to catch fish today, and they will be delivered to your Xiaojing Brigade tomorrow morning at the latest."
Jiang Wanyue smiled and nodded: "Okay, then let's make it a deal."
The wheat bran and rice bran had just been harvested, so the tractor headed back home towards Zhao Xiangbei's home.
This time, there were nearly 20,000 kilograms of fish food. Zhao Xiangbei's house could not hold all of it, so he could only place half of it in the main hall of Jiang Wanyue's house.
"Jiang Jie, you ordered 2,000 kilograms of fish at once, and we only have 300 left in our account." Zhao Xiangbei wanted to cry, "What if, what if there is no money coming in later, our fishery will not be able to operate."
Jiang Wanyue looked at him and said, "Have you ever thought about what we should do if the department store calls and asks for more goods and we can't get them?"
Zhao Xiangbei scratched his head.
I made crispy fish fillets because I had a batch of fish and had no choice but to do it.
Judging from Sister Jiang's current attitude, do you want to specialize in making crispy fish fillets in the future?
"You can only make fifty cents per pound of fish, but if you make crispy fish slices, your income will triple." Jiang Wanyue explained to him, "Selling fish is a simple thing. You can sell them once they are big. But crispy fish slices are more troublesome, and there are taste requirements. It's not easy for others to imitate. Think about it, if the Jiefang Brigade sells fish now, other brigades will soon follow suit. By then, will fish still be so easy to sell? So, if we want to survive, we must find another way."
Zhao Xiangbei was still a little worried: "What if the crispy fish slices don't sell well?"
"Then develop other products." Jiang Wanyue smiled, "There are a hundred ways to eat a fish. I don't believe that we can't develop a flavor that everyone likes."
Her unyielding spirit influenced Zhao Xiangbei.
He clenched his fist and said, "Okay, let's study it together."
Jiang Wanyue was so busy that she only remembered now that today was the final exam for elementary school. She said she would pick up her two children from school.
She asked Zhao Xiangbei to fill up the diesel engine with fuel, washed her hands, and ran quickly towards the elementary school.
The school was over by now, and she met many students on the way, who all took the initiative to greet her.
Jiang Wanyue didn't have time to say anything more to them. She nodded and rushed to the school. She saw Song Huaizhi and Song Yunying, brother and sister, standing at the door of the classroom. When they saw her coming, their eyes suddenly lit up.
Song Huaizhi was relatively restrained.
Song Yunying had already rushed over: "Mom, my brother and I have finished the exam."
Jiang Wanyue tidied up her messy braids and asked, "How do you feel about school today?"
Song Yunying raised her head, her eyes sparkling: "I think going to school is fun, but everyone always likes to touch my hair."
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Because your headdress is beautiful, everyone likes it."
The little girl had two pigtails with a pair of red bow headdresses on top. She bought them because she liked them when she went to the provincial capital for business.
Today is Yingzi's first day at school. She specially gave her a new headdress. The red headdress makes the little girl's skin look very fair and her eyes very big. She looks so cute.
She couldn't help but pinch the little girl's face and looked up at Song Huaizhi: "How did you do in the exam? Are you sure you can get into the third grade?"
Song Huaizhi's face showed no expression: "I don't think it's a big problem."
Seeing that it was still early, Jiang Wanyue said, "I'll go to the office to check your grades."
She is an impatient person and cannot wait a few days to send out the report card, mainly because she is afraid that she will forget about it once she gets busy.
Since you have time, just go and have a look.
She asked the two children to go to the book corner to find their favorite books to read, while she went to see Principal Zheng.
