Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chapter 834: Rice Cooker Workshop Recruitment

Looking at Leader Zou who was smiling, Leader Jiang's expression became even gloomier.

She didn't dare lose her temper here. After weighing the pros and cons, she just said "I reserve my opinion" and turned away.

Seeing Leader Jiang's increasingly domineering behavior, Leader Zou smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Then he said to Uncle Nie.

"When you get back, talk to Chang'an about it. Don't mind what Leader Jiang did. After all, she has a special status, and sometimes even I have to give in to her.

Tell him to do whatever he wants and not care about what other people think.

As long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, feel free to do it. You and I are his strong backers. "

Uncle Nie asked quickly with a look of delight on his face.

"What about the matter of introducing a color TV production line?"

“I think it’s possible to introduce color TV production lines.

If someone else had proposed it, I might have thought about it and hesitated.

But Comrade Chen Changan has proved with facts that his ideas are correct.

I won’t talk about the past, let’s just talk about this rice cooker. The first batch of millions of dollars in payment has already arrived.

Before this, who would have thought that this small rice cooker could also earn foreign exchange?

I also have an electric rice cooker that you gave me. It is very convenient to use.

But if you want me to spend one or two hundred dollars to buy one, I can’t bear it.”

“This rice cooker is really convenient to use and is more suitable for dual-income families.

It is a pity that most people in our country still cannot afford rice.”

When talking about food issues, Leader Zou also frowned.

“Yes, this is why I have always supported Comrade Chen Changan’s 43 Plan.

The fertilizer plant's procurement is about to begin, and all the foreign exchange on hand will be spent at once.

As someone who is used to being frugal, it is very difficult for me to adapt to spending money so lavishly.

But on the other hand, thinking that once these fertilizer plants are completed and put into production, they can greatly increase the national grain output, I think it is worth a try. "

"In the final analysis, it is because we have little foreign exchange. If there were a few more car factories, we wouldn't be so passive in purchasing."

Leader Zou smiled and said.

"You can't think like that, you should say at least we still have a car factory.

Otherwise, even if we have the 43 plan, it will be difficult to complete it. Seeing the plan right in front of us but not being able to realize it. Wouldn't that be more painful than it is now? "

Uncle Nie nodded in agreement and then said.

"Then I'll arrange for someone to negotiate with Corning? The other party is asking for 100 million US dollars.

According to Chen Changan, the transaction will most likely be completed at around 70 million US dollars.

The price difference is huge. If we can lower the price a little more, we can build one more fertilizer plant."

"Then the subsequent negotiations with Corning will be left to you. Chen Changan has already given you the bottom price anyway.

Let's negotiate based on this base price. It doesn't matter even if these TVs don't make any foreign exchange in the future.

Our country's television stations do need to speed up construction. I heard that Chen Changan wants to build a TV station in a car factory?"

"He just had wild ideas. It was good enough that their car factory had an art troupe.

They still want to run a TV station, but they should just focus on producing their products instead of doing other things.”

Uncle Nie seemed to be criticizing Chen Changan, but in fact he was defending Chen Changan.

Leader Zou looked at Uncle Nie with a smile.

"I don't mean to criticize him, why are you defending him like this?

Young people always have many ideas. Comrade Chen Changan wants to run a TV station, so he must have his own ideas.

It's a good thing to have ideas, and we should encourage and support young people.

Why not let the car factory set up this TV station first? With the experience of the car factory TV station, it can also provide assistance to the establishment of other TV stations in the future."

Then the two of them seemed to have thought of something and laughed at the same time.

Chen Changan was sitting in the office, reading a newspaper, when he sneezed.

"Who is talking about me behind my back?"

Then he continued to pick up the newspaper and read it with great interest, and saw that it was clearly written on the newspaper.

"Punish the past to prevent future mistakes, cure the disease and save the people."

At the gate of the automobile factory's residential area, a long queue formed early in the morning.

Wu Wentao stood beside the team and kept shouting loudly.

“Observe the rules and line up properly. Anyone running around will be disqualified from the interview.

Those with children should keep an eye on them. If you leave the line, you should go to the back and queue up again if you want to be interviewed again."

As the orders for rice cookers increased and the third production line was put into use in the workshop, there was obviously a shortage of manpower.

This time, Liu Guangfu's service company was responsible for recruiting workers for the family members. This immediately set off an uproar in the entire family quarters of the automobile factory.

In the past, automobile factory workshops basically did not want female workers. It was not because the factories did not want them, but because many jobs were not suitable for female workers.

This time it’s different. It’s just an assembly line for rice cookers, and it would be a waste to use male workers.

But the order at the scene made Wu Wentao, a 1.9-meter-tall man, shake his head.

Strangers would be a little scared when they see Wu Wentao's size, but the family members wish they could see him several times a day, and they are already familiar with him.

"Mom, why are you joining in the fun? You are so old.

My dad and I earn enough money to support our family.

The rice cooker workshop is not an easy job. It would be much better if you could buy vegetables and cook at home."

Aunt Wu gave Wu Wentao a cold look.

"How old am I? I'm a few years younger than your dad, and he can still work, so why can't I?

Your dad always acts like I owe him money when he comes home. Isn't it just working to earn money? He makes it seem like everyone can't earn money.

I'll wait until I get to work and see what he says when he gets home from get off work."

Wu Wentao's face fell and he asked hesitantly.

"Who will cook at home tonight?"

"I don't care who cooks for you. Anyway, we have a cafeteria, so you won't starve to death."

"Mom, the big pot meals in the cafeteria are not as delicious as the ones you cook. If you don't care about us and we eat out every day, how can we save money?

How can I get married if I can’t save enough money to get married?”

Mother Wu came to queue up for the interview, purely because she was mad at Father Wu.

Every day when he gets home from get off work, he acts like a big boss, bossing people around, which makes people angry.

Hearing that it would affect her son's marriage, Mother Wu was obviously a little regretful. However, when she thought of the old man's face, she gritted her teeth and ignored Wu Wentao.

With Wu Wentao's conditions, he would have married a long time ago, but he was influenced by Li Chenglin and had higher standards.

Seeing that his mother had no intention of going home and he could not persuade her, he said hello to his colleagues and hurried to the factory.

In the smoking room of the car factory's production workshop, Dad Wu was smoking and chatting with his colleagues.

At this time Wu Wentao rushed in directly.

"Dad, please come with me, my mom is going to interview for a job as a rice cooker workshop worker.

She said she would be a worker in the future and would not cook for you anymore."

"What?"

Father Wu threw away the cigarette in his hand, glanced at his colleagues in the smoking room, and said quickly.

"What's going on? Let's go see if this woman is itching for trouble."

After saying that, he looked around arrogantly, and when he saw that everyone was shocked by him, he walked out of the smoking room with satisfaction.
