Chapter 544 Selling Bacon
Wang Tiedan was not very excited when he returned to the dormitory. He simply washed himself and picked up the book again.
This guy pretends to be so cool.
Unfortunately, the audience was all downstairs.
Wang Tiedan was reading the book, but he was actually also thinking about the moves he had just made.
It seemed as if he had learned a few tricks secretly while climbing on the railing, and he used them as soon as the inspiration came to him.
He didn't know other martial arts routines, but he firmly believed that "all martial arts in the world are invincible, except for speed."
As long as we are fast enough, we will explain whoever comes.
After a while, the shouting of "Hey Ha Hey Ha" was heard from the yard again, and it gradually subsided two hours later.
Wang Tiedan didn't go out either, he kept reading.
Shang Bowu became even more reserved after entering the room. He kept calling Wang Tiedan "Brother Wang" and did not dare to disturb him too much.
Time quickly came to noon of the next day. Wang Tiedan was sleeping soundly until he was woken up by his father and daughter who came to bring him lunch.
"Why are you here?"
Wang Tiedan picked up his niece and breathed in a sweet breath.
"I had no choice but to come and see you. I was afraid you were going to jail."
Dad said unhappily.
"How is Jinbao? Who took care of him last night?"
"Who else could it be? Me and your mom~"
Only then did Wang Tiedan notice that his father had dark circles under his eyes, and it was obvious that he had not slept well.
"Dad, hold on for a few more days. I'll be back in three or four days."
"Okay, I know."
Dad brought out the food and continued, "Someone from the village came and asked me to come and ask you something. The autumn harvest is coming soon. You should stock up on food while it's cheap.
The village wants to sell some of the bacon and fish. Who do you think we should sell it to? Should we sell it to the steel mill?"
"How many?" Wang Tiedan asked.
"There must be 4,000 to 5,000 kilograms of cured meat, and even more fish. Mujiatun is also drying cured fish."
Wang Tiedan thought for a moment and suddenly came up with a bold idea.
It is not as safe to sell it to any other factory as to the Dongcheng Branch.
This is called doing it in one step, and there is no risk of speculation.
Wang Tiedan immediately went to find the guards, and then Secretary Fan hurried over.
The entire police force has been working hard in the past week and in the coming week, and they have to work around the clock. How can they survive without some benefits?
Secretary Fan, as the chief steward of the Dongcheng Branch, was so worried that he couldn't sleep every day.
The two sides hit it off.
There is no such thing as speculation or profiteering.
A vehicle was sent to Dawang Village to transport the goods that afternoon and returned overnight. This is a story for later.
After seeing off Secretary Fan who had given him the surprise, my dad told him the second story.
"Tiedan, your uncle said that the villagers all requested that Jinbao's full moon banquet be held in the village. What do you think?"
"Then let's do it."
Wang Tiedan didn't think it was a big deal.
"I'll find a big truck and take everyone who needs to go to the city. We'll do it at noon and be back in the afternoon. If that doesn't work, we'll do it again the next day."
"Okay, I'll tell the villagers when I get back."
Dad left with the lunch box, leaving his daughter holding on to Wang Tiedan's arm tightly.
Wang Tiedan had no choice but to take on the task of taking care of his niece.
While he was eating, Shang Bowu came in with his meal. He had eaten at the guesthouse today and there was no meat. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw Wang Tiedan sharing his meal.
"Brother Wang, I was just listening outside. Do you have bacon in your village?"
"Yes, you want to buy it?" Wang Tiedan did not hide it.
"Of course. Those of us who practice martial arts lack these things the most. Without them, we simply cannot train. It's OK in the summer when there are more prey, but in the winter, we have to go to the black market all day to look for them. Can you sell me some? I'll keep them."
"Okay, I'll tell the village how much you want."
"Let's start with a thousand pounds, okay?"
Wang Tiedan was also shocked when he heard this number.
"Aren't you alone?"
"Yes, my fellow apprentices and Master will definitely give some."
Wang Tiedan gave a thumbs up, it was indeed a case of poor in literature but rich in martial arts.
At this time, no one who could practice martial arts was poor.
"Okay, one thousand kilograms is no problem. Don't talk nonsense. When we get out, come find me and I'll arrange it for you. I'll pay you with the small yellow croaker later."
"No problem, no problem~"
Shang Bowu's wish was fulfilled. He was extremely happy and ate with great joy.
Nannan was so embarrassed to pick up her chopsticks.
After dinner, Wang Tiedan carried his daughter on his back for a stroll around the guesthouse.
There is no way, apart from riding human-powered horses, there is really no other entertainment.
When Wang Tiedan thought of the group of children at home, he suddenly came up with the idea of building a playground.
It doesn't have to be too complicated, with swings, slides, see-saws, carousels, and at most a piece of sand and a rocking car, and the kids are guaranteed to have fun.
It just so happens that the mechanical knowledge I learned recently can be put to use, so it’s a win-win situation.
As Wang Tiedan strolled around, he was surrounded by kind looks.
Not to mention that he had a little loli with him, the strength he showed last night was definitely worthy of respect from those around him.
Wang Tiedan didn't care and just played with his niece.
The two men's cheerful laughter complemented the celebratory slogans everywhere outside the guesthouse.
Tomorrow is a national holiday. The celebrating crowds on the streets are getting bigger and bigger, and people are smiling more and more. Even the guesthouse of the Dongcheng Branch has begun to be decorated everywhere to add color to the festival.
The Red Star Steel Rolling Mill is also decorated.
However, in the office, Li Huaide's face was not very good.
Because of the fermentation of the medicine incident, his upward path was basically cut off, which was definitely a blow to Li Huaide, who had the desire to make progress.
If there is no progress, there is no progress. The worst that can happen is that you will always be a local tyrant in the factory.
However, Li Huaide received a report that the workers' morale was very low.
Not only has production been delayed, but the scrap rate has also skyrocketed.
After investigation, it was found that the reason for the low morale was that the food in the factory was getting worse and worse.
Since last month, support for steel mills has been sharply reduced, as have meat processing plants and flour mills.
In the past, by drinking a little, having a meal, and building relationships, the factories would give us more on top of the quota.
But now, since we have to follow the quota, there are all kinds of bottlenecks. Either there is more lean meat or more bones. No matter how skilled the canteen chef is, he cannot cook without rice.
Li Huaide could feel that the relationships he had with those he entertained were gradually becoming distant.
There are many people who cannot be invited no matter how hard we try.
Since his connections didn't work, Li Huaide could only count on the factory's purchasing department.
In fact, the purchasing department’s purchasing volume is not bad. Now it is summer and there are plenty of prey, so the full amount can be completed every month.
However, for a large factory with tens of thousands of employees, it is just a drop in the bucket.
At this time, Li Huaide seemed to finally remember Wang Tiedan, the deputy chief of the purchasing department who only came to the factory to get salaries.
