Back to 1980: Please Love Me Again

Chapter 126 Breaking Ground
Pingyang County, Shanqian Village.

"Jingyun Button Factory."

Zhao Wenmu pulled the little girl Zheng Meiyun to Zhao Xuelei.

"Captain Zhao, Comrade Zheng Meiyun will be responsible for the operation and management of the button factory in the future. I hope our team will continue to support the work!"

Zhao Xuelei looked at the little girl in front of him with some curiosity.

But in his mouth he said:

"I'm not a big team leader, our Shanqian Village is just a small team."

Then he stretched out his right hand and said kindly:
"Comrade Zheng Meiyun, please take care of me in the future."

The little girl was overwhelmed, and quickly stretched out her hand, a big rough hand with vicissitudes of life and a small white, tender and slender hand, gently holding each other.

"Second Uncle, I want the wasteland at the south of the village entrance."

Next to the road from Shanqian Village to Pingyang County is a large piece of wasteland. There is almost no soil layer here, it is full of various stones, and even grass does not grow much.

In the previous life, around 1986, Shanqian Village took advantage of the severe drought that caused the reservoir to almost dry up, dug river mud, transported it to this open land, and created more than 400 mu of fertile land.

At that time, there were only 4 tractors in the whole village.

Excavators, moreover, do not exist.

We are manpower digging, pushing carts to transport, and use the most primitive methods to overcome all difficulties.

Really create a better tomorrow with sweat and tears!

(This paragraph is the author’s personal experience, but it actually happened in 95. Even at that time, there were not many tractors in our village. Basically, half-machine and half-manpower transported river mud from about one kilometer away. Around 07, another dredging was made. It was completed in just a few days using excavators and ten-wheel trucks.)
Back to the topic.

"That piece of wasteland? Yes! How much do you want?"

When Zhao Xuelei heard that he only wanted that piece of wasteland, he was naturally very happy.

Birds don't shit in that wasteland, and even a pumpkin planted there won't bear fruit, so it's really suitable for building a factory.

As for how to deal with those stones, that is what Zhao Wenmu has to consider.

"I want everything, from the south of the road to the whole wasteland by the river, from the west to the flood discharge ditch beside the village, and from the east to the small dam, I want it all!"

"You want them all?! This piece of wasteland has at least 150 mu. What do you want so much for?"

Zhao Xuelei's first reaction was not "No", but "What are you doing here!"

This is somewhat intriguing.

"Second uncle, buttons are just a small appetizer. In the future, you can also make zippers, clothing, and toys. There are so many things you can make!"

"I want such a large piece of land, so don't I think that all these will be placed in our village in the future?"

Zhao Wenmu drew a cake casually.

Zhao Xuelei shivered.

Zheng Meiyun's heart stopped beating for a moment, and then started beating violently again.

Zhao Xuelei looked into his eyes, trying to see something from inside.

Zhao Wenmu smiled lightly, and just let him look at him.

After a while.

"Okay! I'll settle this land for you!"

Zhao Xuelei let out a long sigh, and there are a lot of things to do.

"What about the rent? If you don't pay rent for such a large piece of land, it won't be justified!"

"How about 10% of the equity in Jingyun Factory? Exchange the 30-year use right of this land for 10% of the equity in Jingyun Factory."

As if he was waiting for him to ask about it, Zhao Wenmu immediately replied as soon as Zhao Xuelei opened his mouth.

The total investment of Jingyun Button Factory is about 22 yuan. If the land use right is equivalent to 10% equity, its actual valuation is about 24400 yuan.

A reasonable price.

"You boy, the scheme is on my head!"

Zhao Xuelei pointed at him!

Naturally, this matter cannot be simply calculated in this way, and it has another meaning.

That is a joint venture with the production team of Shanqian Village!

Mixed-ownership enterprises dominated by private capital but with the participation of state-owned capital (collective capital).

This is a brand new attempt.

The initial exploration of the mixed ownership economy began in 1984 with foreign investment.

With the opening of the eastern coastal areas, foreign investment in China based on cooperative management has opened up the exploration of a mixed-ownership economy. State-owned enterprises or collective enterprises have begun joint ventures and cooperation with foreign-funded enterprises to increase export scale through the introduction of technology and imitation and innovation. It has formed a model for the development of the early mixed-ownership economy.

It was also at the Third Plenary Session of the Twelfth Central Committee held in 1984 that under the guidance of national economic policies and plans, "implement the policy of the state, the collective, and individuals working together, and insist on developing various economic forms and diversified operations. Way.

It was only April 1981, and this kind of public-private partnership in the form of equity is still very rare.

Or not at all.

In fact, it is not without it, but all of them are done in the form of affiliation.

It was brought to the public, probably not.

"Amu, can this work? Do you think the county will approve it?"

Zhao Xuelei was a little uncertain.

"If you don't approve it, the county will definitely not approve it!"

Zhao Wenmu replied without hesitation.

"puff!"

"Cough cough cough..."

The little girl Zheng Meiyun burst out with an earth-shattering cough.

"What are you going to say if the county doesn't approve you!"

Zhao Xuelei was a little angry.

Isn't this making fun of your second uncle?

To be honest, Zhao Xuelei is still very excited, if he can cooperate with Zhao Wenmu, there will definitely be a lot of benefits in the future.

But he reacted immediately.

"What can you do?"

It is impossible for Zhao Wenmu to know that this is not possible, but to do it forcefully.

Having said that, there should naturally be a solution.

"Second Uncle, I have nothing to do."

Zhao Wenmu spread his hands.

What ability does he have to change this kind of national political problem.

But now is an era of daring to fight and dare to innovate.

Many people have the courage to make some new attempts.

When crossing the river by feeling the stones, there must always be someone who walks ahead, right?
"If it really doesn't work, I can only ask Deputy Mayor Liu for help."

Yes, there is also this big Buddha!Zhao Wenmu's words reminded Zhao Xuelei.

"If it still doesn't work, we can only sign an agreement with the production team, and Jingyun Factory will be affiliated with the production team for three years."

If it was 1984, the problem of operating the Jingyun factory would not be a big problem.

At least it's ambiguous.

In any case, the construction of Jingyun Factory started in full swing the next day.

Amidst the thunderous sound of firecrackers, Zhao Jing and Zheng Meiyun shoveled down the first shovel respectively, and the engineering team entered the site for construction.

Chen Xuekun lived directly in Shanqian Village.

Zhao Wenmu invited him to live in his home. Before the factory dormitory was built, Chen Xuekun and the seven workers lived in Zhao Wenmu's new home and old house.

Two lesbians lived in the old house.

Chen Xuekun, Zhao Wenguang and Zheng Meiyun watched over the factory construction together, while Zhao Wenmu began to recruit workers in Shanqian Village and Shandongtou Village.

"Skilled workers need 20 people, at least junior high school graduates, and under the age of 25; ordinary workers need 50 people, who are required to be literate, and under the age of 40."

"male or female."

"The specific recruitment categories of ordinary workers are: 30 screening and packaging workers, 2 cleaning workers in the factory..."

For the job recruitment, the production team was entrusted to help with the preliminary screening of personnel, and those who met the requirements were then handed over to Zhao Wenmu for a unified interview.

"The probationary period for skilled workers is three months. During the probationary period, the monthly salary is 20 yuan. After the trial period, the salary is 40 yuan. The salary of ordinary workers is 25 yuan."

This salary level is similar to that of better factories in the city.

But for farmers, it's very high, really high!

Naturally, the job recruitment went smoothly, and the villagers were very excited to be able to work in the factory.

Natural enthusiasm is high.

Many people are annoyed about why they did not go to school without graduating from junior high school.

In this era, the importance of knowledge is gradually revealed from all aspects.

After the arrival of the 7 workers from Yili Factory, they immediately started training the more than 20 apprentices they recruited.Although the factory building will not be completed for a while, everyone is still learning hard with the machines that are not turned on.

Not only that, Zhao Wenmu also fully authorized Zheng Meiyun.

Accompanied by Zheng Guangming, the little girl found a manufacturer that provided plastic granules and dyes according to Chen Xuekun's recommendation, and successfully bought the first batch of raw materials.

Chen Xuekun was not idle either.

He not only has to guide the construction of the factory building, but also teaches the apprentices himself.

More importantly, it is necessary to deploy raw materials and machinery to produce desired colors and patterns.

This work needs to be repeated continuously, which is a test of a person's professional skills and experience skills.

Chen Xuekun knew that only by doing this job well could his position be stabilized.

He fell in love with this batch of buttons as soon as he got the design drawings. They are so exquisite and cute!
Making such a button can reflect his value as a senior technical talent!
In comparison, the previous ones were all kind of stuff!
Chen Xuekun, who is in his 40s, found his "life value" in this way, and began a happy moment of bursting liver.

The little girl Zheng Meiyun is even more restless, the factory area is taking shape little by little, and her ambition is also burning up little by little.

These days, she took Chen Xuekun's handmade samples and talked with vendors one by one, not only to open up the market, but also to improve the products.

She deeply understands that sales is the key to success or failure.

As for Zhao Wenmu, he was in a state of desperation.

These days, I don't know how many times I ran to the county party committee compound.

"No, no, no! How is this possible! The collective only holds 10% of the shares. To put it bluntly, this is still your personal enterprise!"

"And now there are no cases of collective and individual joint ventures!"

Yes, the so-called public-private partnership was already 20 years ago, and there is no such thing now.

Fortunately, the staff of the county party committee are still very polite.

After all, Zhao Wenmu still has some face, of course, this face comes from Liu Qingshan and Rong Renyi.

In any case, people are still very polite.

But the attitude is very firm, this is impossible!

Zhao Wenmu stopped the No. [-] leader of the county and talked for a long time. The leader was also very open-minded, but gave him the last condition:

"Xiao Zhao, you are taking too big a step! The collective must have at least 51% of the shares, right? You have to understand the difficulties of the county, even if it is a test field, you have to take it step by step."

The leader patted him on the shoulder and left.

In any case, he admired this young man very much.
