Chapter 54: One Last Collaboration
Kong Yuquan patted Meng Sanqiu excitedly: "Of course, the plans have come out, what are you hesitating about? You come back in a few days, and the subsidy will be approved by then, and you can do whatever you want with the money." β
When he said this, he paused, "Of course, the county can only subsidize part of you, and the rest of the money still has to be paid by the village, how much money will be paid, Comrade Xiao Zhou, you make a budget, so that you Captain Meng can have an explanation with the village." β
"Okay, Director Kong," Zhou Niannian agreed, frowning slightly: "But I don't know the price of the equipment in this factory, and the budget made here is not accurate." β
Kong Yuquan smiled, took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket, and carefully unfolded it, looking a little proud: "I wasn't idle yesterday, this is the price of equipment asked by the trustee in the provincial capital, as for the raw material money and the wages of personnel, you can refer to the state-owned factory in the county to calculate." β
Zhou Niannian took the paper and opened it, there was a list of equipment needed to open a meat food processing plant, and her initial plan was to only make ham sausages, jerky, and bacon.
Kong Yuquan's list lists almost all the equipment that may be used, and it seems that Director Kong is also very anxious to promote the development of the rural economy.
"Captain Meng, your Meng craftsman production team has such a good talent as Comrade Xiao Zhou, why worry about not being able to run a factory. Kong Yuquan smiled and said to Meng Sanqiu: "You, just put your heart in your stomach and boldly support young people to do it." β
"Yes, what Director Kong said is that we will go back to the village committee to discuss this matter publicly. Meng Sanqiu glanced at Zhou Niannian deeply, and said as if he had made up his mind.
After returning to the village after coming out of the county party committee, it was already noon, Meng Sanqiu urged Zhou Niannian to make the budget as soon as possible, and then convene a meeting of the cadres of the brigade to explain after the county will come down with the specific allocation policy.
Zhou Niannian asked Zhao Dayong for leave as usual after eating, and did not go out of the river to work, Zhao Dayong said a few words in a weird way, but he didn't embarrass her.
I went back to prepare some materials for budgeting, and it was already past three o'clock when I was done, and Zhou Niannian remembered one thing.
She was busy running a factory in the past two days, and she forgot to go to Yang Jiarui to get the money for the meat that was delivered to the town the day before yesterday.
There are still a few villagers' money in it, although they haven't urged her in the past two days, but it's not good to always make people worry about it, seeing that the time is still early, Zhou Niannian decided to go to the town.
Since she noticed Yang Jiarui's intentions, Zhou Niannian has been thinking about how to terminate the cooperation with Yang Jiarui, the village has set up a factory, and she will not cooperate with Yang Jiarui in the future, so it is appropriate to take this opportunity to talk about things, so as not to be embarrassed in the future.
Zhou Niannian went to the team site to borrow a bicycle and rode out of the village, and a few educated youths in the distance walked to the village with a smile.
When the educated youth go out of the river to work, their physical strength is not as good as that of the villagers, so most of them come back after earning enough work.
"Hey, isn't it Zhou Niannian?" Zhang Peilan saw the back of Zhou Niannian riding out of the village from a distance, and smashed Li Wenjing next to him with her arm, "It's almost four o'clock, what is she going out for?"
Li Wenjing raised her head and saw Zhou Niannian's slender back disappearing not far away, her eyes flashing slightly, and she didn't answer.
"People are now celebrities in the village, let's just say this river worker, if you don't go up, you won't go to it, when you ask for leave, Captain Zhao is so angry, don't you dare to do anything to others?" said a young man next to him in a sour tone.
Zhang Peilan pouted unconvinced: "What's the big deal, don't you know how to hunt?" I heard that the meat she hunted was sold by a young man in the town, who knows what the relationship between the two of them is, maybe it's that abnormal relationship." β
The educated youth who spoke just now covered his mouth in surprise, "Isn't it? β
Zhang Peilan became more and more energetic, and shouted: "Then you said that this is all the point, what is she going to do in the town? β
Thinking of the last time she was forced to apologize by Zhou Niannian, Zhang Peilan was furious, as well as her bed sheets and quilt covers, she dared to swear that Zhou Niannian definitely cut them up.
Phew, don't let her say it, she said that she just wants to destroy Zhou Niannian's reputation and make her the person with the worst reputation in the production team, Zhang Peilan thought of this, and said more and more energetically.
Li Wenjing suddenly paused, "Alas, I seem to have dropped something on the side of the canal just now, I have to go back and look for it." β
"I'll go back with you. Zhang Peilan grabbed her arm.
Li Wenjing shook his head and smiled gently: "No, I'll go back as soon as I go, you see what your mouth has become like yet, go back and drink some water, I will be able to catch up with you in a while." β
With that, he turned around and walked quickly in the direction of repairing the canal.
Zhou Niannian arrived in the town and went straight to the police station, Yang Jiarui was very surprised to see her, and stared at her with bright eyes: "I haven't seen you for two days, what are you busy with? I thought you didn't plan to ask for this money?"
Although she hadn't seen her for two days, Yang Jiarui felt uncomfortable in a hurry, feeling that she was too abrupt that day, and suddenly asked her about her fiancΓ©, she was such a smart girl, she must have noticed her thoughts.
As soon as he thought of this, Yang Jiarui's heart was very uncomfortable, he felt that he was too anxious, what happened if he got engaged? In these years, he advocated the freedom of marriage, he should not give up so early, he thought that if Zhou Niannian didn't come today, he would find a reason to go to Mengjiang Village tomorrow.
"I'm not going to have trouble with money. Zhou Niannian smiled and took the money he handed over, counted it, and handed his share over as usual, "This is probably the last time we will work together, and I will invite you to have a casual meal another day." β
Yang Jiarui's face changed when he heard this, and his voice couldn't help but rise by two points: "What was the last cooperation? What broke up? What happened? Is someone embarrassing you?"
"No, no," Zhou Niannian looked anxious when he looked at him, hurriedly waved his hand, and said that he might be busy running a factory, "I have been following the captain to the county for the past two days, and the next few days will probably be busy with this matter, so I can't sell meat." β
After listening to this, Yang Jiarui looked at Zhou Niannian's eyes and brightened amazingly: "Comrade Xiao Zhou, you are really amazing, how do you know so much? Hey, I am three years older than you, and I don't know as much as you." β
He looked like he had been hit violently, which amused Zhou Niannian.
Looking at the girl in front of him smiling like a flower, and her apricot eyes shining like stars, Yang Jiarui's heart flashed a thick sense of loss, Zhou Niannian will not come to the town to sell meat in the future, and there will be less cooperation between them, which means that he will have fewer opportunities to see her in the future.
It doesn't matter, she doesn't want to set up a factory, she will definitely encounter a lot of difficulties, and she will often run to Mengjiang Village when the time comes, Yang Jiarui secretly made up her mind.
