Chapter 527: A brick factory is under construction? ? ? ?

"So, after much thought, I decided to build a brick house. This brick house can not only provide a safe and comfortable living environment for my family, but also play a significant role in the long run."

"Think about it, most of the houses in our village have always been made of mud. If I build a brick house first, other people in the village will definitely be tempted when they see it."

"They would think, if Wang Jianguo could live in such a nice house through his own efforts, why can't we?"

"This will motivate the villagers to work hard to improve their living conditions and move towards a better life."

Wang Jianguo became more and more excited as he spoke, gesturing with his hands in the air, trying to paint a picture of a beautiful future.

"Besides, building a house costs money, from buying materials, hiring workers, to the final decoration."

"After all this, the village's economy has gradually been revitalized. Everyone has more money in their pockets, and consumption has increased. This is good for the development of our entire village."

At this time, everyone in the room was attracted by Wang Jianguo's words and nodded in agreement.

Wang Jianguo took a deep breath and looked a little nervous. After all, he was about to touch upon the most critical issue. He said carefully:

"Director Liu, my only problem now is whether the quantity at your brick factory is sufficient."

"I know that the output of the brick factory is planned every year. In addition to supplying some public units, the rest can be distributed to the villagers."

"If I build this house, it will definitely require a lot of materials, and I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you and affect other arrangements. So I came to visit you today, the first day of the Lunar New Year."

"I want to discuss with you and see if you can give me some advice on the supply of bricks. If you have any difficulties, please tell me and I will definitely find a way to overcome them."

After saying this, Wang Jianguo looked at Director Liu expectantly, waiting for his response.

The room fell into a brief silence for a moment, and everyone focused their attention on Director Liu.

This conversation, which concerns Wang Jianguo's future life and the development of the village, is at a critical juncture. Everyone holds their breath, waiting for Director Liu's reply.

Director Liu sat upright on the thick wooden chair in the room, leaning forward slightly, with his hands folded on his knees, staring intently at Wang Jianguo and listening very seriously.

After Wang Jianguo finished talking about the reasons, vision and difficulties of building the house, Director Liu's eyes gradually became a little blurred. He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was lost in deep thought.

He looked like an experienced navigator who, when faced with a complex and ever-changing route, needed to carefully weigh the pros and cons and consider every detail.

For a moment, the room was so quiet that only the slight sound of breathing could be heard. Everyone held their breath and stared at Director Liu.

After a while, Director Liu slowly came back to his senses. He cleared his throat, sighed softly, and then turned to the crowd and said solemnly:

"If I rely solely on the current quota of my brick factory, it will definitely not be enough."

As he spoke, he shook his head slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Everyone knows that our brick factory's annual production plan is set long in advance. We have to give priority to meeting the needs of some public institutions, and then the rest will go to the villagers."

"Take last year for example. We had extra bricks to build your canteen. That was purely because it was almost the end of the year and all the major public projects were finished, so we were able to squeeze out some extra bricks."

"But the situation is different now. After the Chinese New Year, all industries are recovering and various construction projects are being launched. Bricks are needed everywhere. Our brick factory is fully booked with orders, so there will be no bricks."

Director Liu's speech was clear and logical, and he laid out the current situation and difficulties of the brick factory in front of everyone without reservation, which made people feel both understanding and worried.

As soon as Director Liu finished speaking, Zhao Shuzhuo stood up from his seat as if a spring was installed under his butt, his face full of anxiety.

He unconsciously clenched his hands together and rubbed them back and forth. Fine beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead. He spoke as fast as a machine gun:

"What should we do, Director Liu, Director Song, please think of a solution!"

As he spoke, he looked at Director Song, his eyes full of help, and then looked at Wang Jianguo, his eyes full of heartache and worry for his friend.

"Jianguo has done so many useful things for our Jianye Farm, from reclaiming wasteland to building water conservancy facilities to building the canteen of the supply and marketing cooperative. Which one of them was not done by him at the forefront and with great effort?"

"We have to help him. We can't let his dream of building a house be stuck on bricks."

Zhao Shuzhuo's voice trembled slightly due to anxiety, and his words were full of earnestness. The atmosphere in the room became more and more solemn. Everyone realized that they were facing a difficult problem that needed to be solved urgently.

Director Song had been sitting aside, quietly observing the changes in everyone's expressions.

When he saw Zhao Shuzhuo pacing back and forth in the room with his face flushed with anxiety, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, he immediately stood up.

He walked towards Zhao Shuzhuo with a concerned look, reached out and gently patted his shoulder, and soothed him in a calm and reassuring voice:

"Shuzhuo, don't be anxious, let's calm down."

Director Song's eyes were gentle and firm, with a calming power. He turned slightly to look at Director Liu and continued.

"After listening to what Director Liu said, I know that he has been in this industry for many years and has a lot of experience. He must have a solution."

The atmosphere in the room was still solemn. Everyone held their breath and stared at Director Liu.

Director Liu nodded slightly, his movements were neither hurried nor slow, as if he had a plan in mind. He first cleared his throat, breaking the brief silence, and then said in a low but confident voice:

"Yes, I have a solution."

Director Liu deliberately paused for a moment, his eyes slowly sweeping across everyone's faces that were filled with curiosity and anticipation, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile, and then he slowly revealed the answer.

“That means building a brick factory.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the room, which was originally so quiet that only the sound of people's breathing could be heard, suddenly exploded.

The other four seemed to have heard some earth-shattering news. They all widened their eyes, leaned forward subconsciously, opened their mouths slightly, and said in unison:

"Building a brick factory?"

The voice was full of surprise, confusion and disbelief. Four pairs of eyes were focused on Director Liu, as if they were eagerly waiting for his further explanation. The atmosphere in the room became more heated and full of suspense.
