Chapter 60 My Second Brother Can't Hide Behind
"Yuan Xing! What did you say? Building a factory?"
The old secretary's eyes widened, and after listening to Shen Yuanxing's plan for the brick factory, he was so shocked that he knocked over the ceramic jar on the table.
Shen Yuanxing wiped the water stains on the table with a towel and puffed out his chest proudly: "This was all An An's idea. I always say that my sister has been smart since she was a child."
The old secretary's mouth twitched. This girl-praising maniac is here again.
He could see that the filter that the Shen family had for Shen Anan was ten meters thick. Before, Shen Anan didn't go out to work every day, but Shen Yuanxing could still praise his sister for her calm temperament.
However, this brick factory...
Shen Anan ignored her second brother's silly smile and said seriously: "There are several mountains next to our village, so there must be enough raw materials for making bricks. I have also solved the technical issues, so there will definitely be no problem with the product."
"This time when I went to the county, I found that many factories had a demand for red bricks. I have already made an agreement with Deputy Director Zhao of the furniture factory. When our red bricks are fired, as long as there is no problem with the quality, the red bricks for a dormitory building of the furniture factory will be supplied by our factory."
"As long as we take the first order, our brick factory will be able to make its first pot of gold. Besides, there is a lot of demand in the county. As long as we can get subsequent orders, the brick factory can continue to operate."
"Maybe in the future, everyone in our team can become workers!" Shen Anan did not forget to paint a big picture for everyone.
Accountant Hu standing by heard this and his breathing quickened. The raw materials for red bricks are free and only require some manpower. The profit is huge!
Others may not know, but how could he not know since he is in charge of the brigade’s accounts? The harvest this year was not good, and there is not much money left in the account. I’m afraid that everyone will not be paid part of their dividends by the end of the year!
Why! There’s nothing I can do, I’m poor!
Accountant Hu couldn't help but persuade: "Captain, Secretary, this factory can be run, it will definitely make money!"
The old secretary came back to his senses and said firmly: "Let's do it! As long as it's good for the team, this factory will be established!"
He has been watching the situation in the team over the years. Most of the fields in their village are broken land and mountainous land, which are not fertile, and everyone lives a very difficult life.
Shen Yuanxing was a little worried: "But in the commune, no brigade has run its own factory yet. If we run this brick factory now, will it be considered cutting off the tail of capitalism?"
The old secretary shook his head and said, "It's okay. Don't worry about the formalities. I'll do it!"
"I am half buried in the ground. As long as it is for the good of the team, I will definitely get the procedures done even if I have to kneel down to the leaders of the commune."
The old secretary spoke in a firm tone, and one could still see the spirit and energy he had when he joined the army.
Shen Anan was not very worried about the procedures for the brigade's brick factory. As far as she knew, the commune would issue a document at the beginning of next year to encourage the brigade to set up its own factory.
After all, although the policy is high-pressure, we cannot ignore the lives of the grassroots people. In fact, there is still some room for change.
Her approach of running a brick factory was actually to seize the market one step ahead of the others. After the commune encouraged the brigade to set up factories, the competition in the market would definitely become more intense.
Shen Anan thought for a moment and said, “Second brother, I think you’d better write a detailed plan for opening a brick factory. Try to be as detailed as possible, and also write down our subsequent sales channels and orders from the furniture factory, so that the commune leaders can understand it in more detail.”
The old secretary nodded in agreement, "Yes, we should write a charter."
I didn't expect that the daughter of old Shen's family is so capable, and most importantly, she is selfless and can truly consider the team.
He is old, and the brigade secretary who will replace him must be someone who can do practical things for the people. But there is no rush, he still needs to take a good look...
"By the way, let my second brother go to the production brigade to handle the formalities. After all, he is the brigade leader and cannot just sit back. This is also his responsibility!"
"If he doesn't take the lead in this matter, it won't sound good at all!"
Shen Yuanxing patted his chest and said, "Old Secretary, I can definitely get this done. If they don't agree, I will go there every day."
"Okay, then we'll wait for your good news."
The old secretary glanced at Shen Anan subtly, and he took back his previous evaluation of Shen Anan's selflessness.
But he didn't say it out loud. He is already at this age and has no intention of stealing the credit.
But how can she be sure that this procedure can be completed?
This factory establishment was the first time for a young lady to get married in the commune.
When Shen Anan saw the old secretary’s expression, she knew that he understood her intention.
But she didn't care. Although opening the brick factory was to improve the economy of the team, it was more for the sake of bringing honor to her second brother.
In the original book, Shen Yuanxing was pressured by the original owner to open many back doors for Duan Hongzhe and even arranged a job for him as a scorekeeper. In the end, he was reported to the commune.
When the commune held a new election, of course no one wanted to vote for her second brother.
After Shen Yuanxing lost his position as captain, he became depressed. Later, when he went to the city to help her find Duan Hongzhe, he was hit and killed on the street.
Shen Anan could feel that Shen Yuanxing was public-spirited and liked to be busy for everyone, so she didn't mind giving him a push in this life.
If he could develop the Wanyang Brigade, he would naturally be noticed by the people above. After all, this was the Shen family's root, and she also hoped that the team would get better and better.
Shen Anan and Shen Yuanxing were discussing the development of the brick factory, and Accountant Hu next to them couldn't help but join in, and the office was bustling with activity.
The old secretary suddenly spoke up: "An An, the team has already taken advantage of your family in the wild boar incident. For this brick-making recipe, how much do you think is a good price? I'll consider it as the team buying it from you."
The old secretary knew that as a member of the Shen family, it would be inappropriate for Shen Yuanxing to bring up this matter, so he simply did him a favor.
Accountant Hu was a little embarrassed: "There is not much money left in this team, and the brick factory still needs to build kilns and factory buildings. Can we owe it first, and then pay it back after we sell the bricks..."
Accountant Hu became more and more embarrassed as he spoke, and his voice became lower and lower.
He also knew that it was impossible to ask someone to give out the recipe without paying, but the account was really...
Shen Anan thought for a moment and said, "I know our team is in trouble, and I don't want any money."
"We are going to renovate our house next spring. When we buy bricks from the team, the team will charge us the cost price. Is that ok?"
Accountant Hu thought about it and his eyes lit up.
As far as he knew, a worker in the town's brick factory could make eight to nine hundred bricks a day, so the Shen family wouldn't need that many bricks to repair their house.
The old secretary made the decision: "That's it. When you build your house, all the bricks will be supplied free of charge by the team's brick factory."
"Oh, how can this be so embarrassing." Shen Anan was overjoyed. Although she had enough money to buy bricks, it would definitely be nice to not have to spend any money.
"No, no, we should be the ones feeling embarrassed. After all, it was the team that took advantage of you." Accountant Hu touched his head embarrassedly.
"It's all for the good of the team."
