Chapter 152
The result of Lu Qin's efforts was that, seeing Cai Mingju looking distressed about the money, he called Director Ren again.
Director Ren sneezed twice in a row. He picked up the phone and had a hunch that the person on the other end was Lu Qin.
But I didn't expect the first words from the other party were, "Director, I've already contacted the educated youth and young people in Laiyang County. Do you have any plans to build a branch factory in Ningchuan City? I've even thought about the location."
After hearing these words, Director Ren's thoughts immediately turned to when he had agreed to build a branch factory. Wasn't he still considering it? For a moment, he began to doubt whether he had really agreed. Then, he regained his composure in an instant.
So he asked.
"Ah," Lu Qin blinked. "I've thought it through. Building a branch factory is definitely no problem. Our fellow villagers in Laiyang County are happy to sign the application. We can follow two steps: first apply to the higher-ups in Laiyang County, and then apply here. There's definitely no problem here. After all, we're keeping the talented people they've trained here. As for funding and technology, we definitely need to invest, and the ultimate goal of investment is to generate returns."
He spoke without pausing, and the general idea was that he had almost finished the arrangements.
In other words, the educated youth can fully reuse the materials. This is absolutely fine, and resource conservation is worth promoting.
"Lu Qin." Director Ren rubbed his brows, certain he had thought it through completely. But he hadn't yet.
"I believe Ningchuan City is a suitable place to open a factory, but there are many problems to solve later. You should be familiar with them since you have been a secretary before."
Ningchuan City's geographical location made it a prime target, a fact that Director Ren could foresee.
Lu Qin stared at the tips of his shoes. He needed to go back and brush them. He didn't deny it. "That's true. I understand the leadership's thinking. But, well, I think you, the factory director, can handle it. The branch factory doesn't need to be as large as the main factory. Besides, isn't the difference between our factory expanding within the province or expanding outside the province? If that's a reason to convince you, I think it's because most of our county's talent has come to Ningchuan City, and we can make good use of it."
Previously, it was just a product of a small county, but now it has become famous in the province through the sale of major supply and marketing cooperatives, and eventually became the representative product of Sanhe Province. Now it is just a matter of further making it a nationally famous product.
Director Ren rubbed his brows. He was quite clear about the direction of the factory.
Lu Qin didn't give him time to react and suddenly asked, "By the way, Director, the second most famous food factory in our province is called Deli Food Factory, right?"
As expected of competitors, even their names are similar.
Director Ren's hair stood on end. He was convinced that Lu Qin wouldn't ask such a question casually. "Why are you asking this?"
"Nothing much, I just wanted to learn more about it. I saw their products here."
Director Ren held the cup of warm water for a long time without taking a sip, because he didn't quite believe that he really had no other thoughts in his mind.
"Let me think about it again," Director Ren finally said.
He had a feeling that if he didn't agree, Lu Qin would directly bring the second place winner to Ningchuan City. Given his personality, it was not impossible.
"Okay, Director, take your time to think about it. We just started school so we're not in a rush. We'll definitely come to Ningchuan City in the future anyway. It's just a matter of time."
After hanging up the phone, Director Ren, who was left on the other end, started to have a headache again.
This guy kept saying Ningchuan City was a good place for development. It was indeed true. And with this guy there, he had already done some research.
The factory had already developed well in the previous phase. It was time to consider the next phase. The previous phase was proposed by this guy, and the next phase was also proposed by him. He suspected that the factory was completely tied to this guy.
Director Ren sighed, stood up, and walked to the door. He looked up at the factory buildings in the distance. They were a mixture of low and high floors, with many new floors rising higher, each painted a pristine white. They were all newly built in the first half of the year.
The smoke rising from the roof seems to indicate "prosperity".
The current situation is that the biscuits of the Lefu Food Factory have become the representative product of Sanhe Province.
If the factory director wanted to become as famous as Shanghai Food, he would definitely have the ambition. Ning Chuan was the best choice.
He turned around and said, "Let's have a meeting."
The people in the factory office looked at each other in confusion, and then he said, "Xiao Chen, go get Section Chief Zhou from the Finance Department and the Publicity Department to come over."
At least discuss it properly.
On the other side, Lu Qin hung up the phone, thinking that it would be April in a few days. Spring was coming.
After thanking Cai Mingju, he was about to return to the dormitory when he ran into Cao Hai who was struggling to carry a large piece of luggage upstairs.
Lu Qin seemed to smell the scent of dry food biscuits from a long distance away, and he quickened his pace.
Cao Hai was called by the broadcast early in the morning to move the luggage. At that time, Zhang Jianjun asked him if he needed help. He simply stuffed the book into his hand and said no with a relaxed look.
Before reaching the gate, he walked with ease, wondering how heavy the things could be, and even his steps seemed impatient.
Until he saw the bulging package, he pointed at the luggage with a look of doubt and asked the uncle who received it, "These are all mine."
When the old man indicated yes, he picked up the luggage with a complicated expression.
The dry food was a mixture of grain and some dried fruits. It became heavier as he walked along the road. It became more and more difficult for him to walk, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
Until a familiar voice came from behind, "Do you need my help?"
Cao Hai couldn't turn around, as a hand reached out from under the package to help hold up his luggage.
"Thanks……"
Until now, Cao Hai still thought that there was something else in the luggage, maybe canned pickles sent to him by his family.
When we got to the dormitory, the other two people exclaimed, "Such a big luggage, is our food here?"
"That should be it."
Cao Hai was also preparing to unpack his luggage, and as if knowing what he was thinking, he took out a pair of scissors.
Cao Hai took the scissors from Lu Qin, squatted down and cut the belt in a few seconds. A tightly tied and heavy package slipped out at once, as if it had been waiting for a long time.
The other three stood by and didn't disturb him, just waiting slowly.
There was a letter on it. Cao Hai unfolded it and took a look. His expression was a little strange. He picked up the small package and saw Lu Qin's name on it as expected.
"Lu Qin, this is for you."
Lu Qin took it, his wrist bent downwards as he felt the weight of the package. "Aunt and Uncle are truly sincere and warm-hearted."
But there is more than just enthusiasm.
The other two also looked at him eagerly.
But Cao Hai's expression was still strange, as he pulled out more small packages from the bottom. "Lu Qin, this is yours, and this is yours too..."
In three minutes, Lu Qin's hands were already filled with bags and packages. He hadn't anticipated this outcome. He flipped the back of the bag and took a look. Walnuts, sesame seeds, peanuts, Sichuan peppercorns...everything could be used.
It turns out that writing a letter has such a good effect.
The other two roommates stared at each other.
There were still three small ones left in the package, lying alone at the bottom. Cao Hai gave the other two to them, and then looked at the last bag of things, not knowing what they were. He felt complicated for a moment.
After moving things for a long time, all of them were for Lu Qin. He, a grown man, felt a little uncomfortable standing there.
Song Zuwen couldn't wait to open a package. Seeing the two of them standing together, he blurted out, "Cao Hai, you have so little luggage. Compared to Lu Qin, Lu Qin actually looks more like your parents' son."
Cao Hai, “…”
Lu Qin, "..."
There is no harm without comparison.
Lu Qin himself felt the weight in his hand was a bit heavy. He coughed and said, "Maybe it's because Uncle Cao and Aunt Cao get along better."
Lu Qin put the things on his desk, and the piled up packages collapsed onto the desk, unable to be stacked up.
He opened the package directly, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It had a familiar taste, and it seemed even better.
He turned his head and reminded, "Cao Hai, please call me when you call me in a few days."
Of course, a letter would be even better. He wanted to thank his uncle and aunt in person again.
Cao Hai, "Hmm..."
Seeing that his things were similar to theirs, except for spices which were inconvenient to divide, Lu Qin simply grabbed a few biscuits and threw them to them, stuffing the rest into his bag. He then put on his backpack and said, "I'm going home first."
