Chapter 51 Fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders
After completing the formalities, Li Dong took the documents and went home, Lu Xiumei saw the bag in Li Dong's hand, was a little curious, and asked casually: "Dongzi, what are you holding in your hand?" ”
"Oh, that's what I'm talking to you about?" Li Dong handed the document bag to Ah Niang.
"What a thing, mysterious." Lu Xiumei opened the file bag and found that there were some license certificates, and she couldn't see any reputation.
"A-Niang, I plan to open a small mill for grinding flour, and in the future, all the flour in the community will be paid by our family." Li Dong pretended to be profound.
"Dongzi, don't fool A-Niang, where did you get so much flour, can the community agree to your nonsense?" Lu Xiumei has the attitude that I don't read much, don't lie to me.
"Didn't I say that I have wheat, and we process the flour ourselves, and we can earn a little more processing fees. Tomorrow I will go buy a flour grinder, put it in the warehouse when I come back, and when the wheat arrives, we will start work. Li Dong said lightly.
"Will this work? It's not going to be a loss, I've heard that the neighborhood committees are all supplying at a loss. ”
In a few months, Lu Xiumei also figured out the details of the Yangming community and knew that the supply was difficult, so there was room for Carrefour to grow. She didn't want her son to make money at a loss, but in the end it was still in vain.
"Don't worry, A-Niang, I have an internal supply channel, and the loss is not enough, at most it is a matter of earning more and earning less." Li Dong reassured.
"Xiumei, don't worry about it, Dongzi is doing things, I think it's okay." Grandma didn't know when she appeared aside, she persuaded her eldest daughter, and then turned to Li Dong and asked:
"Dongzi, so the workshop still needs to recruit people, right?"
"Yes, after all, it's a manual job, we can't do this work except for me, I'm also busy, I should be able to recruit two workers." Li Dong explained that he was afraid that if his grandfather had to be strong, it would be bad.
"Great, Dongzi, what do you think of your cousin? At night, let them make a bunk on the first floor, and the salary will be paid according to the average person. Grandma said with great anticipation, she also saw a few grandchildren very hard, thinking that Dongzi was better than her hometown no matter what she said here.
"Grandma, I'm only looking for short-term workers for the time being, usually working for one month and two months off, the work is heavier, and the salary is only 600 yuan, don't let my cousin lose their original job because of this."
Li Dong was a little hesitant, the visa is not a problem, and he can apply for a temporary visa with Team Leader Zhou. But the key is the working hours, 600 yuan a month, and the round-trip fee alone is almost 30 yuan, which is not worth it.
"It's enough, your cousin doesn't work every day, and it's more than 200 yuan a month to work hard, not including food and drink. Okay, three months' salary a month, what is there to hesitate, I will write home and ask them to come over as soon as possible. After Grandma finished speaking, she went to Grandpa to prepare to write a letter.
"Dongzi, just do what your grandma says, it's not easy, you can help a little." Lu Xiumei also mentioned it.
"Okay, then I'll start work a few days later, and wait for my cousin and them to arrive." That's it, Li Dong can only nod and agree.
The next day, Li Dong went to the department store to pick up a small flour grinder and sealing machine.
"Sir, this one can meet your needs, the quality is absolutely good, as long as it doesn't work 24 hours a day, it's no problem." The shopkeeper sells hard.
"Okay, let's just this one, give me another sealing machine, and I don't have a lot of money." Li Dong always wants to take advantage of things when he buys.
"Cheng, I won't make any money on this list." The shopkeeper deliberately pretended to have a painful expression, and his acting skills were definitely Oscar-level.
Then Li Dong went to the packaging factory to book 10,000 woven bags, the front of the bag was printed with three big characters "Carrefour", below is the address and expiration date and other instructions, and a line of small words "Yangming Community Exclusive" was printed on the side. This is Li Dong's experience copied from his previous life, on the one hand, it can upgrade the brand level, and at the same time, it can also enhance customer loyalty.
The speed of the manufacturer was very fast, and all the orders were completed in the afternoon, and Li Dong did not use the space to smuggle, but honestly transported it back to the warehouse by ship. Sometimes you need to be high-profile, sometimes you need to be low-key, and Li Dong can still grasp it.
When passing by the wharf, Li Dong also put almost sixty percent of wheat into the warehouse, and the transportation could start tonight, and no one would pay attention to the specific amount after dark.
"Auntie, I'm going to work overtime to deliver wheat at night. You have to take care of the warehouse, don't let people steal it. Li Dong handed over the important task of guarding the warehouse to A-Niang.
"Don't worry, A-Niang is smarter than you."
After dinner, Li Dong went to the captain of the hovercraft, and the two sides agreed on a specific time, and there were many goods during the day, and it was impossible for the neighborhood committee to agree to Li Dong occupying it for several days in a row.
Back at the dock, Li Dong hired a small cargo ship and four porters. Soon, the wheat was transported to the floating dock, where the hovercraft was already parked. Due to the small size of the hovercraft and its limited capacity, it can only carry a maximum of two tons at a time, and it cannot operate continuously, with a maximum of five round-trips in one night. Therefore, Li Dong only transported 20,000 catties of wheat on this trip, which happened to be shipped overnight.
For the next four nights, Li Dong used the same method to finally transport the sixty percent of the wheat back to the warehouse. On the last night, he sent A-Niang away and mixed the remaining forty percent of wheat together, unknowingly.
"Auntie, I went to the train station to pick up my cousin and them, and I don't know if the train was delayed."
Grandma has received a reply from the family, and it is confirmed that the people who came are Lu Zhengwei, the eldest cousin of the eldest uncle's family, and Lu Zhengtai, the third cousin of the second uncle's family. The last time I sent the letter, I sent it with the recruitment certificate issued by the neighborhood committee, and my cousin and they had already completed all the temporary visas, and the arrival time was tonight. I don't know how they discussed, just one family, as for how to persuade the third uncle, Li Dong can't care.
"Be careful on the road, and you'll be back as soon as you get someone." Lu Xiumei advised.
"Got it."
……
"Third brother, wake up, the train is almost here." Lu Zhengwei woke up his cousin, who was sleeping on his shoulder.
"Oh, what time is it?" Lu Zhengtai was still a little confused.
"It's almost seven o'clock in the evening, see if the visa is still there, and I'm going to get off the bus soon." Lu Zhengwei touched his visa through his clothes, this is a new starting point in his life, and he can't tolerate any sloppiness.
"It must be there, don't look at me falling asleep, I've been pinching the visa, isn't it still there." Lu Zhengtai took out his visa from his pocket and shook it.
"Woo, woo, squeak......"
The train finally stopped, Lu Zhengwei and his cousin followed the crowd through the security check, and at the exit, the two began to look for their cousin in the crowd.
"Cousin, over here." Li Dong suddenly found his cousin and them, but these two people are too conspicuous, to put it mildly, that is, they are dressed too dirty.
"Dongzi, how do you get here?" The Lu Zhengwei brothers finally squeezed in front of Li Dong, looking dazed.
"It's okay, you just follow me." Li Dong took a large box from Zhengtai's hand.
Out of the station, Li Dong took the two of them into a taxi and came to Dongying Wharf. Along the way, Lu Zhengwei and they can be regarded as eye-opening, they used to think that the capital is at most a little larger than Ping'an City, a little more populous, and a little better economy, I really don't know how big the world is without going out.
After more than an hour of boat ride, Li Dong finally returned to the Yangming community. Even if it was just a night scene, it also opened the eyes of the two brothers again, and they finally knew why their grandmother showed off the living environment of their aunt's family so much.
