Chapter 67 It's Done
Xu Xiuyun was really moved.
You know what, she actually does have a way.
Thinking about the things in her basket, Xu Xiuyun thought for a moment and said, "Sister, tell me something. Can you make the decision on this matter?"
"Of course!" Zhou Xian nodded heavily.
"But you have to give me a definite answer, sister. If you can do it, the vegetables are easy to handle. Just give me a word and I'll send them over right away. But we have to get the eggs from the members in advance, otherwise it will take some time. It's better to prepare early."
"Three days, give me three days, and I'll give you a definite answer, okay?"
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news, big sister."
The two of them held hands and talked for a while. Zhou Xiaocao was some distance away, but she saw that the two of them were as close as real sisters, but she didn't hear what they said.
Zhou Xian and Xu Xiuyun waved goodbye and gave her the phone number of Baihua Commune, asking her to call them to inform them whether the plan succeeded or not.
Zhou Xiaocao didn't ask what Zhou Xian said to the director of the Women's Federation of the machinery factory.
She has been a tractor driver for some time and has learned a lot. She knows that there are some questions that can be asked and some that cannot be asked.
No matter what, her sister-in-law is her leader, so when facing a leader, she should talk less and do more.
Zhou Xian was also very satisfied with Zhou Xiaocao's performance and felt that she had made a lot of progress recently.
She hasn't told Secretary He and Director Ji about this for the time being, in case it fails, they will be disappointed.
It’s only three days, I can still wait.
However, although Director Xu said it would take three days, he called just over a day later and specifically asked Zhou Xian to answer the call.
Zhou Xian just picked up the phone and said "hello" when Xu Xiuyun came straight to the point and said, "Sister, there's no hope at the machinery factory, but what do you think about the textile factory? Their union has agreed to purchase products from your commune. If there's no problem with yours, they'll send someone over to take a look."
After all, if you want to buy something, you still have to inspect the goods first.
"I don't have any problem here, but it won't have any impact on you, Sister Xu, right?"
But she remembered that Xu Xiuyun was the director of the Women's Federation of the machinery factory.
How did this suddenly turn to the textile factory?
"Don't worry, it's okay."
After listening to Xu Xiuyun's confident answer, Zhou Xian said a few more words, hung up the phone, and then told Secretary He of the commune about this.
"What did you say? The county textile factory wants to buy our vegetables and eggs?" Secretary He was so shocked that he stood up from his stool.
Fortunately, he believed in Xiao Zhou's ability, otherwise he would really think she was bragging.
"Tell me in detail, what happened?"
Zhou Xian talked about the key points of his last trip to the county town to deliver vegetables. Of course, he also mentioned that he had delivered some vegetables to Xu Xiuyun.
"I just wanted to be happy to see someone I knew, so I acted on my own initiative."
"It's just some food, just give it to me." Secretary He waved his hand nonchalantly. He didn't take any money, so it couldn't be considered profiteering.
In the countryside, if you grow some private land, neighbors will send vegetables to each other. Even if there was no order, he wouldn't have bothered with Xiao Zhou about it.
Besides, this thing was not given away for free. They even placed a large order for it.
After all, they still have to thank others.
Director Ji was also present. She checked with Zhou Xian again and then slapped her thigh and said, "I remember that Director Xu of the Women's Federation of this machinery factory has a sister who is the vice chairman of the textile factory labor union. I think that since the machinery factory failed, this is her sister's fault again."
"No wonder. I was just worried that it would have a bad influence on Sister Xu."
"Don't worry, Xu Xiuyun is not that stupid. Even if the leader blames her, she won't blame anyone else." Director Ji used to work in the Women's Federation of the county. She knows those people and has some idea of what they are like.
I didn't expect that after only meeting a few times, Xiao Zhou could play well with Xu Xiuyun. Director Ji also felt that Zhou Xian was always sincere in his treatment of others, so it was no wonder that Xu Xiuyun could help him so much.
Moreover, the vice chairman of the textile factory's labor union is Xu Xiuyun's sister. She must have gotten some benefits for her efforts. It's a good thing that Xiao Zhou is so grateful to her all the time.
"Then should we prepare and collect the eggs that the members have saved first? As for the vegetables in the greenhouse, I think they will only last for two days. I heard that the textile factory will come to inspect them in a couple of days."
"That's right. Collect the eggs first and then contact their buyers directly."
There is no rush for the vegetables. We can let customers see their vegetables with their own eyes. As long as we place an order, they can pick fresh ones early in the morning and deliver them to them.
The more Secretary He looks at Zhou Xian, the more satisfied he is. He even has the idea of transferring talents like Zhou Xian to his own team.
Although Xiao Zhou sometimes has a rich imagination, what he does always makes people look at him with admiration.
This matter was facilitated by the staff of the Women's Federation. Xu Xiuyun was also a comrade of the Women's Federation, so the task of purchasing eggs from members was assigned to the comrades of the commune Women's Federation.
This task fell to Secretary Li.
"Xiao Li, you have to be serious."
"Don't worry, Director Ji, I will definitely do my best." Li Lingling was quite motivated at the moment.
Especially now that Director Ji looks at her differently, she feels even more proud.
It is not difficult to purchase eggs in a unified manner. We just need to inform the team leaders, who will then inform the members of the news, and some members will come the next day.
The commune’s unified purchase makes things easier for its members because the price is the same anyway and it doesn’t matter who sells to it.
Although this matter was assigned to Li Lingling, she was not the only one in charge. After all, it was a connection with the factory in the county, and the quality had to be guaranteed. Those who wanted to sneak in rotten eggs would not even accept their eggs if they were discovered.
But you can't pass off inferior products as good ones just because they are purchased by the commune.
Soon someone came from the textile factory, including Xu Xiuli, the vice chairman of the trade union, in person.
That day, her sister came to her house angrily and told her about this. She was also worried. The New Year was approaching, and everyone had been complaining that the benefits were almost the same every year and there was no thought at all.
Some people even sounded out their opinions and asked if they could exchange some benefits.
The trade union must certainly listen to the opinions of the workers, but there must be a way to get the union to change the benefits they distribute. As the vice-chairperson of the union, she had a bad relationship with Chairman Zheng of the union. After the workers raised this problem, Chairman Zheng solemnly guaranteed in front of the workers that the union would definitely meet everyone's demands.
As a result, he turned around and handed the task to her.
It wasn't her who made the big promise, but the task was handed over to her. What can she do? It's the same as always. Don't make promises if you can't keep them. However, Xu Xiuli was only confused for a moment, and soon realized that this was a pit waiting for her to jump into.
Unexpectedly, her sister's complaints actually solved her problem.
Since the machinery factory doesn't want this benefit, their textile factory does.
The union has funding, but she has to see with her own eyes what the dish that her sister praised so highly looks like.
Knowing that people from the textile factory were coming, Secretary He came in person. When he heard that they were going to visit the greenhouse of Taohua Brigade, he arranged for a tractor to pick them up.
The Taohua Brigade also received the news and is now ready.
Xu Xiuli was also shocked when she saw the vegetables in the greenhouse.
“These vegetables are growing really well.”
"They are all cultivated by everyone with great care." Zhou Xian accompanied them and explained their doubts in a timely manner when they were confused.
After looking around, Xu Xiuli had an idea in her mind. The union at the machinery factory didn't know what was going on, but she had seen it with her own eyes, so there couldn't be any mistakes.
I didn't dare to delay any longer and immediately went to Baihua Commune and signed the acquisition agreement with them.
After signing the agreement, both parties breathed a sigh of relief.
It's done.
Both sides felt that they had gained the upper hand, and were extremely polite to each other.
"Chairman Xu, how about staying and having a meal together?"
Xu Xiuli didn't have time to eat at the moment. She had to go back quickly and hand over the agreement to the factory.
This matter was made possible by her. After all, the union gave her the task of purchasing workers' benefits, and she completed it successfully.
Now of course I have to go back and report to my boss.
Zhou Xian had already asked the people in the team to pick some ripe vegetables and hand them to Xu Xiuli.
"Chairman Xu, if you take this back, it will be more convincing. The vegetables grown in our greenhouse are not bad."
Since she said so, Xu Xiuli naturally couldn't refuse and accepted it.
This basket looked like a lot, and she estimated that after returning to the factory and dividing it among the people, there would be nothing left.
As the Chinese New Year was approaching, the Taohua Brigade did not rush to slaughter the New Year pigs this year. Instead, they first hurried to harvest the ripe vegetables in the greenhouse and sent them to the textile factory in the county.
It was Zhou Xian and Zhou Xiaocao who went there again. During this period, the two of them had been running to the county town very frequently. Zhou Xiaocao felt that he could drive a tractor to the county town with his eyes closed.
She is busy on weekdays. She attends literacy classes and also finds time to study the structure of a tractor.
The tractor broke down several times due to frequent use. When Master Sun came to repair it, she would learn by his side, and if she couldn't remember, she would write it down in a notebook.
In fact, none of the members in the brigade knew about it at all. In order to practice, she secretly disassembled the outside of the tractor to take a look, and then put it back together.
He was very cautious at first, but now he is very skilled. When others see him, he can calmly say that he is checking the tractor.
She talked more with Zhou Xian and had a different feeling.
It’s hard to describe this feeling, but she likes her current life very much.
When you arrive at the textile factory, just show the letter of introduction to the security guard.
Soon Xu Xiuli brought people over and first took a look at the things that were delivered.
Otherwise, she heard her sister praising this comrade named Zhou Xian for his meticulous work. Last time, she asked her about the number of people in the factory. When these things are delivered, they are all packed well and the workers can just pick them up directly when the time comes.
They also got some in bulk, saying that if it wasn't enough, they could make up for it later. They really took every aspect into consideration.
As for the "Hope" from Baihua Commune on the packaging, Xu Xiuli didn't care about it. It was originally bought from the commune, so there was nothing wrong with writing a name on it. When buying things in a department store, there were words on the packaging.
"Thank you for your trouble."
"That's not the case, Chairman Xu. We are just helping each other."
Xu Xiuli asked people to move the things off the tractor. After all, there were eggs inside, so in order to prevent them from being broken, a layer of straw was put underneath.
Seeing that the other party was so attentive, Xu Xiuli naturally returned the favor. "Xiao Zhou, I know that your leader values you and you can make decisions on some matters. I won't beat around the bush with you. We have some scraps of cloth in our textile factory. Would you like to have them?"
"want!"
Zhou Xian nodded without much hesitation.
This time she did a good job. Her leaders and workers were satisfied, so her dissatisfaction didn't matter at all.
After all the things were moved down, Xu Xiuli took Zhou Xian and Zhou Xiaocao to the warehouse.
As for defective cloth, it is also quite popular inside the textile factory. Even if you don't need it yourself, everyone has relatives in different factories. Naturally, there are different benefits, so it is not bad to use it for exchange.
There are quite a lot of scraps of cloth, all of which are leftovers from the production line, and there are quite a lot of them piled up in the warehouse.
Although they are scraps of cloth, they are quite large in size when cut into pieces.
The few pieces that Zhou Xian saw were half a meter long.
You can make something by piecing it together.
