Chapter 309: Bartering
Knock knock!
Knock knock!
When Li Weidong took Yang Xueli to the poverty alleviation workshop, he was stunned by the lively scene outside.
A few eldest sisters beat gongs and drums.
What do the big girls dancing next to them mean?
Is there a large-scale theatrical performance?
At this time, Niu Meng trotted all the way over, she can't wear a Mao suit at her level in the workplace, and she can't distinguish her identity from the same dress as ordinary workers, so she can only change into a set of navy blue youth clothes.
The youth clothes looked a little wide, maybe Niu Yong's old clothes, but they were very clean, and she had a heroic feeling when she wore them.
Niu Meng smiled in his eyes, wiped the sweat on his forehead after standing still, took a breath, and then said: "Master, how is it, I dare to say that there are so many workshops in the rolling mill, and there is nothing more lively than our workshop!" ”
Her expression and movements seemed to say, 'Master, I'm great, praise me'.
It's a little too much. Li Weidong nodded: "Good job!" ”
"It's just that there are so many people, where did you find them?"
Niu Meng stared wide-eyed and smiled: "Those eldest sisters are from the propaganda department, and Director Yang sent them to enliven the atmosphere, and those eldest ladies are temporary workers in our workshop, and they themselves can dance Chinese character dances, and a little training is fine." ”
Li Weidong nodded: "Yes, you are quite good at using resources, and you are also very motivated." ”
"Of course." Niu Meng said: "I have already decided to make a career in this position." ”
"Okay, it's not too early, let's hurry into the workshop."
Li Weidong led everyone into the workshop, and all the leaders in the workshop were there, and the temporary workers sat neatly at their workstations.
Li Weidong looked around and introduced Yang Xueli to the big guy.
The big guy has long heard that the port city has sent someone over, and he was still a little suspicious, but when he saw the real person today, the heart hanging in the air fell to the ground.
It seems that the poverty alleviation workshop has indeed received the attention from above, and it will be a long-term job.
"Okay, I won't talk about the superfluous, in the workshop, as long as you work hard, I will definitely not treat you badly!"
After Li Weidong finished speaking, he looked at Ma Xiangdong, the deputy workshop director who had been waiting next to him: "Old Ma, you are the deputy director in charge of the daily production work of the workshop, you can give the order!" ”
"Director."
Ma Xiangdong was a little surprised, such an important thing as starting construction should have been the exclusive honor of the workshop director, but now Li Weidong gave him the deputy director.
"Good"
He seemed to want to say something, his mouth opened and he didn't say it, turned to face the workers, and waved his hand: "Start work!" ”
"Let's go!"
"Let's go!"
A loud sound echoed in the workshop, and the workers turned on the machines, and the workshop was suddenly filled with the roaring sound of machines.
"Director, I'm a little worried, I have to go and watch for a while."
"Go ahead."
Seeing Ma Xiangdong wandering in the workshop, seriously directing the work in the workshop, Li Weidong nodded with satisfaction.
This old horse is really a good horse.
Ma Xiangdong, 40 years old this year, was originally the deputy director of the workshop of the forging workshop, and became the director of the poverty alleviation workshop through an interview.
The forging workshop is a well-known large workshop in steel rolling, and the temporary workshop of poverty alleviation cannot be compared with it at all.
It's just that Liu Hongshan, the workshop director of the forging workshop, is also forty years old this year, and he is working for work, so there is no possibility of promotion.
In other words, as long as Liu Hongshan does not make mistakes, Ma Xiangdong can only be a deputy director in his life.
So, he wanted to try his luck in the temporary workshop.
Li Weidong has made tremendous achievements at such a young age, and promotion is inevitable. When the time comes, it is logical for him to take over as the workshop director as the deputy workshop director.
Li Weidong understands Ma Xiangdong's ambitions very clearly.
But.
He still accepted Ma Xiangdong and made Ma Xiangdong his deputy.
The reason is simple.
In Li Weidong's view, an ambitious subordinate is easier to control.
Workshop management itself is a very difficult job, and dealing with affairs often requires offending people.
If Ma Xiangdong wants to take over Li Weidong's class smoothly, he has to become a sharp knife in Li Weidong's hands.
Seeing that Ma Xiangdong had already entered the working state, Li Weidong did not stay in the workshop for a long time, and was ready to return to the studio to continue his research.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the workshop, he was stopped by Niu Meng.
"Director, I'd like to make a suggestion."
"Our workshop pays attention to democracy, and if you have any suggestions, please mention it." Li Weidong said.
"It's not an important thing, I just think I should mention it." Niu Meng seemed a little embarrassed.
"I'm your master, if you have anything to say, you can say it directly."
"I think our workshop should order a batch of professional tooling." Niu Meng raised his head.
"Workwear?"
"Yes, you see, the workers in our rolling mill have special uniforms, and the workers in our workshop can only wear home-style clothes because they are temporary workers, and there are all kinds of clothes, just like a vegetable market."
After listening to Niu Meng's thoughts, Li Weidong nodded and said: "This is indeed the truth, first, the unified uniform is easy to manage, easy to unify the will, and easy to integrate." Second, it is convenient for workers to self-restraint, enhance their sense of self-discipline and self-discipline, and do a good job in self-management. In addition, it can also give the outside world a good feeling of teamwork, which is more conducive to the image of our poverty alleviation workshop. ”
“.” Niu Meng just felt that it was a little inappropriate to wear casual clothes, but she didn't expect Li Weidong to say so much truth, and she couldn't answer for a while.
Li Weidong said: "Okay, I will operate this matter, you go back quickly." ”
"Okay."
After agreeing to Niu Meng to change the workers' uniforms, Li Weidong had no time to accompany Yang Xueli to do research, and after sending Yang Xueli back to the guest house, he came to Director Yang's office.
"How? The workshop is still going well, right? ”
"It's okay, there is a horse staring east there."
"Well, the old horse's ability is really good."
After some greetings, Li Weidong proposed to change his uniforms, and Director Yang frowned after hearing it.
He took a sip of water from the enamel jar, and his face was sad: "Comrade Weidong, this matter is a little difficult, the tooling of our rolling mill is all transferred from the Fifth Textile Factory through the ministry. The quantity is limited, and it is only enough to be distributed to regular workers."
Li Weidong has been in this era for a while, and he knows that what Director Yang said is the truth.
In this era, the production of factories was agreed to be deployed, and it was impossible to change the deployment plan because of some temporary workers.
The most difficult thing to make a costume is to get the cloth.
If this problem is solved, it is completely possible to find a tailor to make a batch of garments.
There are more than 200 temporary workers in the poverty alleviation workshop, and a skilled tailor can complete the work within a month.
Even if you are in a hurry to use the garment, you can find another tailor.
The key now is how to get the cloth through relatively legal means.
Cloth is available only in cotton mills.
When Li Weidong was a truck driver, he once went to the cotton mill to deliver workpieces and met the director of the logistics department of the cotton mill.
Maybe
Li Weidong's eyes lit up, looked at Director Yang and said, "Factory Director, if I can find a way to exchange the workpieces from our factory for cloth, can you give me some special approvals?" ”
Director Yang was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he understood Li Weidong's thoughts: "What do you mean by bartering?" ”
In this era, the production materials needed by the factory need to be blended from above.
At the beginning of each year, the factory will determine the amount of materials required according to the production plan for the current year.
Then send an application report to the ministry, and the ministry will allocate materials according to the application report.
This approach guarantees limited resources and is not wasted due to duplicate production.
However, there are drawbacks.
That is, there is a certain error in the production activities of the factory.
For example, if the machine is broken today and there is a lack of spare parts, follow the regular process to apply for a report.
Waiting for the approval of the superiors, the factory that produces the parts receives the order of the superiors to produce spare parts.
Finally, the spare parts are sent to the rolling mill and installed on the machine.
These series of procedures will take at least a month.
During this month and a half, the machines are not able to produce and the workers are idle, which will definitely affect the production volume of the year.
In order to prevent this from happening, the logistics department of the factory will immediately report to the factory that produced the part after it is damaged.
The factory that produces the parts may lack workpieces, and the two can be exchanged.
Even if you don't need the artifact, that's okay.
I can trade from workpieces to diesel, and then I can use diesel to exchange parts with you.
A factory needs a lot of materials, and there is always what you need.
Of course, in the material budget formulated every year, this part of the materials has been added to the application report in advance.
Director Yang has been doing a lot of 'bartering' things over the years, looked at Li Weidong and smiled: "Okay, as long as you can contact the textile factory, I can ask the logistics department to deploy a batch of workpieces." After all, those temporary workers are also workers in our rolling mills. ”
"Thank you very much!"
After saying thank you, Li Weidong got on his bicycle and came to the Fifth Cotton Spinning Factory, well, it was the factory that Cuihua used to be.
The biggest difference between cotton mills and rolling mills is that there are more young girls.
Li Weidong's dress and handsome appearance attracted the attention of the girls, until his back disappeared at the door of the logistics office, and a few little girls reluctantly turned around.
"Who was that?"
"I don't know, but it should be a leader, didn't you see that he was wearing a woolen tunic suit?"
"Tsk, it's rare to see such a young leader."
"Little Wave Hoof, are you excited?"
"What nonsense, see if I don't rip your mouth."
The perpetrator, Li Weidong, had no idea what was happening behind him, so he went straight to the office of the head of the logistics department and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Hear a sound and push the door in.
Zhang Xingmin, director of the logistics department of the Fifth Cotton Spinning Mill, was drinking water, and when he saw Li Weidong dressing, he couldn't help but gasp and almost choked on the tea.
"Ahem, cough, cough"
Li Weidong took the towel on the hanger and handed it over, looked at Zhang Xingmin's embarrassed appearance, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhang, why are you so excited?" ”
"Li Weidong, you, are you an official?" Zhang Xingmin wiped the corners of his mouth and asked incredulously.
Li Weidong straightened his body and pulled the corners of his clothes with both hands: "The younger brother is not talented, he is loved by his superiors, and he is now the workshop director of the poverty alleviation workshop of the rolling mill." ”
"Workshop Director. The future is limitless! ”
If Zhang Xingmin didn't know Li Weidong's temperament, he thought he was joking.
Although the level of the workshop director is relatively low, not as good as the section chief of the department, he is regarded as the leader of the grassroots level, and he may be promoted to deputy director and director in the future.
Directors like them, due to the lack of experience of the top leaders, basically have no chance to be in the position of factory leaders.
It's just that Li Weidong came to deliver goods a while ago, and he was just a small worker, and he became the workshop director in the blink of an eye, and the speed of promotion is really surprising.
"Weidong, congratulations, it's just that you're not here to show off to me today, right? Just say something straight. ”
"Heh, I can't come to see you brother if it's okay, by the way, how is my sister-in-law's situation recently?"
Li Weidong diverted the topic and asked with a smile.
"Now recuperating at home, already able to cook, now recuperating at home. The doctor said that if you send it half an hour late, your sister-in-law will have to lie in bed for the rest of her life. Zhang Xingmin remembered the incident a while ago, and felt a little afraid.
His wife, who was an officer in the materials section of the cotton mill, suddenly fainted in the office due to continuous overtime to calculate data.
The people from the material department hurriedly came to call Zhang Xingmin, and it happened that Li Weidong and Zhang Xingmin were together, so they followed.
According to the condition of Zhang Xingmin's wife, Li Weidong suspected that she had a cerebral thrombosis, immediately took simple first aid measures, and then drove Zhang Xingmin's wife to the hospital in a truck.
After this incident, the relationship between Li Weidong and Zhang Xingmin warmed up.
Li Weidong nodded and said: "It is very dangerous once the cerebral thrombosis recurs, on weekdays, you ask your sister-in-law to pay attention to rest and not eat greasy things." ”
"Well, that's what the doctor explained, by the way, your sister-in-law told me a few times that she wanted me to invite you and your daughter-in-law to have a meal at home."
The two chatted for a while, and seeing that the atmosphere was in place, Li Weidong put forward his own ideas.
"Brother, I have something to ask you for today, our workshop needs a batch of black cotton cloth, I don't know if your factory still has inventory."
"Black cotton, I'll say that your kid has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace." Zhang Xingmin said with a smile: "There is black cotton, but you also know that the end of the year is coming, and cotton is in short supply."
"The workpiece, we will exchange the workpiece!" Li Weidong can understand Zhang Xingmin.
People in this era are very upright, even if the relationship is good, they will not show favoritism for personal gain, at most it is a little more convenient.
If there was no relationship between the two, Zhang Xingmin would have kicked him out of the office at this time.
No way, the cotton mill in these years is so arrogant.
Zhang Xingmin pondered for a moment and nodded:
"Recently, there have been several days of aging in the workshop, and the parts of the cotton spinning machine are often out of order, and it is really time to replace them."
"In this way, you write down the amount of cotton cloth you need, and then I will discuss with Lao Wang and them, how to change it."
"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Li Weidong nodded.
He knew that in barter, the value of the item was difficult to measure at a normal price, and that the two parties to the exchange needed to negotiate with each other.
This kind of negotiation often takes a little time.
