Chapter 101 The Board Comes Down

Chapter 101 The Board Comes Down

My cousin Zhang Yulong won a great victory in his public notes exam in October and made it into the top ten.

After officially resigning, I signed up for an interview training class in the city.

There were not enough people in the office, so Lao Yang hired someone.

Prepare to be trained as office director.

A long time ago, there was only Zhang Yulong in the office. Later, two young girls were hired. They were okay at running errands but not so good at doing things. They could only be used as tools and had basically no ability to handle and solve problems.

Whenever it comes to communication and coordination with the competent authorities, Lao Yang has to come forward in person.

The old comrade felt that this was not acceptable. He had to personally handle major matters, but it was inappropriate for him to personally handle minor matters. The administrative office must have someone who could take over, so they carefully selected a talented person.

Because he is to be trained as an office director.

The old comrade specially asked Jiang Ning to take a look.

She was a girl named Kong Fangfei, and she was quite pretty.

Twenty-eight years old, child is two years old.

I used to be a host of the county radio station. I was considered an old subordinate of the old comrade. I had never been able to get a job there, and was paid a few thousand yuan, but then Old Yang called me over. I had wasted six or seven years in the unit, but it was different.

Sit cautiously.

He was paying close attention and was observing Jiang Ning's expression.

There is always a decent smile on his face.

Unlike the two girls in the office who are always ignorant.

Sometimes old comrades can get distracted when they are being given tasks.

After chatting for a few sentences, Jiang Ning thought it was pretty good.

There aren't many talented people in this small county, so it's good enough to find someone like this.

Old Yang also praised his old subordinate: "Xiao Kong has no problem with his ability. He has worked for six or seven years and knows everything he should know. He also has no problem with the communication and coordination skills of a reporter. It's just that his child is young, so it may affect his work."

Jiang Ning nodded gently and said, "It's not a big problem. After all, work is for life. We must take care of our lives. We can't ignore our children for the sake of work. You can make the decision, old man."

The old man was very happy. In front of Jiang Ning, he said to Kong Fangfei, "Boss Jiang has also agreed to the salary. It will be 3,500 yuan during the probation period and 5,000 yuan after becoming a regular employee in three months. Work hard. Boss Jiang is a generous man and will not treat you unfairly."

Kong Fangfei quickly expressed her opinion.

Old Yang encouraged her a few words and let her leave first.

Wait for her to go out.

Jiang Ning said helplessly: "You didn't even consider my feelings when you picked someone. Why did you pick such a young and beautiful one? Your mind is really unmoved, and I am still young and energetic. How can I bear to have such a beautiful woman hanging around in front of me all day long!"

The old man smiled and said, "Young and beautiful women are pleasing to the eyes and can liven up the atmosphere. Otherwise, it would be so boring if the office is dead silent. When you are in a bad mood, looking at a beautiful woman can make you feel better."

Jiang Ning was surprised: "Incredible, you are old but your heart is young!"

The old man smiled and said, "Even if your body is old, your heart cannot be old. Otherwise, how can you live to be eighty years old?"

Jiang Ning gave him a thumbs up. This old man was indeed optimistic.

Unlike other old guys, he is always gloomy.

With this mentality, you can live to be a hundred years old without any problem.

Kong Fangfei is still adapting to the new environment.

Trouble has come first.

The next day, Lao Yang handed a notice letter to Jiang Ning.

The official letter was sent by the municipal competent department.

Seriously inform Xianling Farm that dumping timber at low prices violates market principles.

Asking Fairy Farm not to disrupt the market and so on.

After reading it, Jiang Ning was shocked: "Is it wrong for me to lower the price to sell wood?"

The old man looked serious and nodded, "How can there be no problems in doing business? Local protectionism in the forestry industry is very strong. There is also the Nanwan Forest Farm in the city. We sell wood for 500 per square meter. Who would buy wood from the Nanwan Forest Farm? They will definitely not be happy."

Jiang Ning was unhappy: "We were good brothers when we were eating rabbits, but we didn't even say hello when I stabbed you in the back."

Old Yang is used to it: "Business is like this, we are good brothers in front of others, but stab you in the back. We are competitors with Nanwan Forest Farm. If you think badly of us, they probably hope we go bankrupt, otherwise they won't be able to sell their wood in the future."

Jiang Ning asked: "How to deal with it?"

Old Yang frowned, "This matter is not easy to handle. Nanwan Forest Farm is close to us, and we are behind. The city will definitely consider the life and death of Nanwan Forest Farm, unless we unify the price with Nanwan Forest Farm."

Jiang Ning said, "Even if we unify the price, the failure of Nanwan Forest Farm to sell wood will still be a problem for us."

Lao Yang thought for a while and said, "Let's ask our leader to go to the city and see what's going on!"

Jiang Ning nodded and called his leader.

The next day I went to the city, to the competent authority, and met the leader.

The leader was polite. Now Xianling Farm is a key enterprise at the provincial, municipal and county levels. It has generated huge economic benefits and has applied for a number of provincial key projects. It is like a father to the county and a grandfather to the city, and we all need to take care of it.

We sat down and chatted for a while and then talked about the problem.

The leader from the county came to intercede. The leader was not pretentious and talked about some practical issues: "Xianling Farm is also an enterprise that the municipal bureau supports. The bureau is of course happy to see you develop well, but the problem of Nanwan Forest Farm cannot be ignored. Your price is so low, Nanwan Forest Farm can't also lower the price and start a price war with you. In the end, we will be the ones who suffer losses."

Jiang Ning said, "Leader, you know the situation on the farm. We have at least two million cubic meters of mature wood. Without a price advantage, how long will it take me to sell all that wood? A year's delay will cause huge losses to the farm."

The leader knew the situation, nodded, and pointed out a way: "Then how about this, the city should align with Nanwan Forest Farm and unify the prices. With such a large quantity, not to mention the city, even the province can't digest it, and it must be shipped out. You can set the price based on the actual situation. The Municipal Bureau will not interfere. We will also intervene if the Municipal Bureau needs to coordinate."

Jiang Ning is talking bullshit, it's all nonsense.

The city doesn’t allow cheap sales.

Not to mention other places.

The city will at least give it some face, after all, it is a local enterprise.

When I go to another place, I am afraid that what I will receive will not be a notification letter.

Rather, it is a ticket or a notice that the timber has been confiscated.

In a word, the key is not to let Nanwan Forest Farm go bankrupt.

Leave the competent unit.

The county leader said something fair: "Different positions require different considerations. The bureau is also protecting the farm. Otherwise, it would not be a notice but a ticket. We need to find a win-win solution to this problem."

Jiang Ning asked: "What good ideas do you have, leader?"

The leader shook his head: "What good ideas can I have? But since we are here, we have to find a way to solve the problem. So, how about we go to the city to report our work to the supervisor and see what the supervisor thinks?"

Jiang Ning agreed and went to the city again.

Without making an appointment in advance and waiting for half an hour, after the leader finished the meeting, he still met with the comrades from the county as soon as possible. After listening to Jiang Ning and the county leaders talk about the problems they encountered, he immediately smiled.

The leader said: "There is no problem with the forestry department's handling. After all, they are all children of the city. We can't let one eat while the other starves. The price should be unified. However, Xianling Farm has rich timber resources. Bei'an is studying the layout of related industries, and the city is also studying it. With such a large quantity, how much can be shipped out? Moreover, there are more problems when selling to other provinces. If there are problems in the city, we can sit down and discuss them. Who will sit down and discuss with you if you go outside? So we still have to develop local industries to digest them."

The county leader said: "Leaders can see far and wide."

The leader added, "But your quantity is too large. It's hard to digest it all in a short period of time. This will cause problems. We will definitely compete with Nanwan Forest Farm, just like two brothers fighting. The one who can't win will ask his parents. I can't always take sides and let you handle this kind of thing. We still have to find a way to solve the problem once and for all."

Jiang Ning asked: "Leader, do you have any solution?"

The leader paused for a moment and asked, "How are the finances of Fairy Farm?"

Jiang Ning told the truth: "We have no debts and have sufficient funds."

The leader asked, "How about letting Xianling Farm acquire Nanwan Forest Farm?"

Jiang Ning asked: "How to merge and acquire, full acquisition or equity swap?"

The leader said: "Think about this!"

Jiang Ning agreed, and sat for a while while his leader looked at his watch.

I tactfully stood up and said goodbye.

Got outside.

The county leader said: "Nanwan Forest Farm has a lot of problems. I think you'd better not take it."

Jiang Ning asked: "What's the problem?"

But the leader didn't say anything, obviously it was inconvenient.

Jiang Ning didn't ask any more questions. He found a hotel to stay in and didn't go back that night.

I opened three houses and discussed it with Lao Yang.

Old Yang then said, "I have heard some rumors about the Nanwan Forest Farm, and there are indeed many problems."

Jiang Ning asked: "What's the problem?"

Lao Yang said: "We have too much debt and are almost bankrupt."

Jiang Ning was not surprised. "It would be strange if you can run it well if it's not your own. If it's just in debt, then it's not a big problem. Just take it over and revitalize it. Not only will you not lose money, you can even make some money. I'm just worried that there will be other problems."

Old Yang said, "Probably not. It's just hollowed out. The trees planted in the 1980s and 1990s have all been cut down, and the ones that were replanted didn't grow big, so they were cut down and sold for money when they were barely usable. Now I heard that only 3,000 to 4,000 cubic meters of wood are produced each year. It's better to cut down all the trees and plant crops. Planting 3,000 to 4,000 acres of land with forage is more profitable than planting trees. I guess it's become a burden and they want to get rid of it."

Jiang Ning said: "Those people are not good at anything. Growing grass will only make them lose more money."

Old Yang nodded and said, "Find out more about it. If it's just a debt and there are no other problems, I think we can take it. As long as we take over Nanwan Forest Farm, no one will complain anymore, and those processing plants won't dare to make more troubles."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Then ask as soon as possible, and accept it if there is no problem."

After the two of them discussed it, they rested for a while.

I talked to the county leaders about it in the afternoon, and they neither opposed nor agreed with it.

It's up to them to decide.

After all, this is a corporate behavior, and some things are difficult to say too much.

I went to a banquet with my boss in the evening and attended an event. I met some new friends.

By the way, ask about Nanwan Forest Farm.

Lao Yang didn't go.

The old comrade also has many friends in the city, so he goes to his friends to ask for news.
