Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 28 From a Planned Economy to a Market Economy
The boiling water has been boiled, and Niu Dazhuang is pouring boiling water on the pig with a gourd ladle, while Niu Daping is holding an iron plane for shaving pig hair, scraping vigorously on the pig skin that has been drenched in boiling water.He scraped off the black pig hair and the outermost cuticle, revealing the smooth lower skin layer, which looks like a person who hasn't bathed in 100 years is rubbing mud.

When Niu Xiaoqiang was watching with enthusiasm, the trio of thieves approached. Niu Xiaodong lowered his voice and said, "Brother Qiang, you are really there. It turns out that the favor you asked us to do was to catch wild boars."

This was the most beautiful sentence Niu Xiaoqiang heard tonight. He puffed up his chest: "Now you know how powerful I am?"

Niu Xiaodong used to look down on Niu Xiaoqiang. He always felt that the other party was a fool and was inferior to him. Even though Niu Xiaoqiang had changed, he still couldn't change his habitual thinking.After hearing about Niu Xiaoqiang's capture of wild boars, he was sure that the former idiot had really become smarter, and it would be a bad thing if he still regarded him as a idiot.

The children in the mountains are relatively simple and straightforward, and they should be what they should be. Niu Xiaodong now treats Niu Xiaoqiang as an equal existence. He gave a thumbs up and said: "Of course, you are much better than me. If it is me , I can’t think of such a good way.”

Niu Xiaoqiang was worried that he would get involved in the issue of breeding, so he coughed dryly and said with a modest smile: "It's average, and it's not as powerful as you said."

Niu Xiaoyong licked his lips: "It's already very good. If it weren't for you, we might have to wait until the Chinese New Year to eat pork."

Niu Huahua didn't speak, she looked at Niu Xiaoqiang with a strange look.Niu Xiaoqiang was puzzled by this: What's wrong with Xiao Hua?Why are you looking at me like that?

Niu Huahua's thoughts at the moment are like this: Xiaoqiang seems to have changed his temper, my father will really let me marry him, right?
The more bloody the pig was, the more terrifying it became. When the pig's head was chopped off, Niu Xiaoqiang was not too scared. When the wild boar was disembowelled, exposing the internal organs and intestines, he suddenly felt disgusted and frightened, and dared not kill the pig again. Look, turn around and walk into the back room.Before entering the house, Niu Xiaoqiang quietly told the elder sister to grab more meat.

"It's not yet 10:30, I'll read a book before going to bed."

Niu Xiaoqiang took out a newspaper from the snakeskin bag and read it while sitting under the dim kerosene lamp.

Niujia Village borrowed the light from the arsenal, and then it was connected to electricity.But in general, villagers still prefer to use kerosene lamps for lighting.This is not to say that the villagers do not accept electric lights, but they want to save electricity bills.

This is a "Worker's Daily". After Niu Xiaoqiang flattened the newspaper, a bold and enlarged black headline immediately came into view: "The Transformation of a Small Fishing Village to an Economic Bridgehead", and there is a line of small words below the headline: " The enlightenment brought to us by the economic development of Shenzhen".

This article mainly talks about the astonishing achievements of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone in the past two years since its establishment, especially in terms of attracting investment, both in terms of scale and the actual utilization rate of foreign capital.

Shenzhen is too far away from Niu Xiaoqiang, he doesn't have the slightest intuitive impression of this city, so he just browsed it roughly, and Niu Xiaoqiang turned to the second page.

The second page immediately attracted his strong interest. There was a photo on it, which took a panoramic view of the entire SZ urban area. Niu Xiaoqiang stared at the few tall buildings in the photo, and stayed for a long time before sighing: " So stylish..."

Young people like to fantasize, and Niu Xiaoqiang soon imagined that if he could live in such a grand high-rise, it would be so cool.

"The rapid transformation of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone tells us that it is impossible to stick to the old and stick to the old. Only by adhering to the road of reform and opening up can the Chinese people have a future. Since we can turn a small fishing village into a prosperous metropolis, we can make other people in the country The same changes have taken place in the region!"

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at the small print at the bottom of the photo, and said to himself: Niujia Village is completely a place where nothing shit happens, and I don’t know when it will be able to develop economic construction as vigorously as Shenzhen?

Looking back, another newsletter caught Niu Xiaoqiang's attention.The title of this newsletter is: "How to resolve the difficulties encountered by domestic enterprises?"

Because the arsenal encountered operational difficulties some time ago, Niu Xiaoqiang was very concerned about this report, and he began to study it carefully.

In 1981, although China had carried out reform and opening up for more than two years, it was still at a very backward stage. The results of reform and opening up did not have much positive guiding effect on many domestic enterprises, and many large state-owned enterprises still held They operate with old ideas, and they don't have a brand new understanding of the market economy at all.

Due to historical reasons, China has implemented a rationing system for a long period of time, which is the so-called planned economy.There are clear regulations for each citizen’s various consumables every month. For example, food, pork, cloth for clothing, cooking oil, etc. are all supplied by ticket. It's hard to get these things.

At that time, the state-owned enterprises were completely "the emperor's daughter does not worry about marrying".Due to the shortage of raw materials, the various commodities they produce can be said to be in short supply, and they don't have to worry about having no market at all. Basically, they can sell as much as they produce.In this case, the product quality and service attitude naturally lag behind.

With the gradual transformation of the economic system from a planned economy to a market economy, the domestic situation has changed.Some enterprising, energetic, and visionary people, through their own hard work, have worked step by step from family workshops to small factories, quietly encroaching on the positions of state-owned enterprises.

Some people find another way. They do not participate in specific production matters, but through the wholesale of commodities, they import urgently needed supplies from abroad and resell them domestically. The Sanyo that Niu Xiaogang took home entered the country through this method. of.Vendors can earn several times or even dozens of times the profit just by changing hands!

These ongoing changes will inevitably have an impact on domestic enterprises, but it is a pity that this negative impact has been ignored by the vast majority of enterprises.They have held iron rice bowls for a long time and are still living in the dream of a planned economy. They don't realize that their iron rice bowls have rusted and they will soon be unable to use them for food.

The problems encountered by enterprises producing civilian products are not too serious at present, because the domestic people still have a large demand for daily-use commodities, and there is no sign of much decline for the time being.Those heavy industrial enterprises that were really affected more seriously, such as the arsenal not too far from Niujia Village, are a microcosm.

　Ask for favorites, ask for recommendation tickets, Weiyu smiles and implore everyone to support, thank you.
