Although Ye Xiangdong repeatedly requested, Su Xiangyu did not go for a physical examination before the New Year.
In a blink of an eye, it is already the end of the New Year. I gain three pounds during every festival. On New Year's Eve, all the educated youth gathered at the main farm for a party. Everyone in the first branch had greasy mouths, while the educated youth in other branches did not even have a drop of grease on their mouths. It was obvious that they were not living a good life.
At the party, Su Xiangyu directed Zhu Xiaojie and Yu Weiwei to perform a play called "Raising Pigs", and publicized the matter of raising pigs on the farm.
Of course, Ye Xiangdong's sperm collection would definitely not happen, after all, the white Tianshan shark in the three-point field had already been sent to the capital's Agriculture Department.
When the sub-farm heads held their first meeting after the New Year, Su Xiangyu was escorted to the meeting place by all the female educated youth on the farm.
In fact, she had discussed her work plan with everyone on the farm a long time ago.
There are still three months from the end of the Chinese New Year to the thawing of the frozen ground. During these three months, in addition to raising chickens and pigs, she plans to lead 500 educated youth to build a brick kiln and burn bricks.
"With the money we earn from making bricks, we can buy seeds from the grain station. After buying the seeds, we can start spring planting. Our farm will never be short of money," said Su Xiangyu.
In the conference room, Ji Huaiguo took the lead in applauding, and the branch managers also applauded.
But everyone is still worried about one thing, that is, where to sell the bricks after they are fired?
"As for where to sell the bricks, I'll figure it out." Su Xiangyu gave the director a reassurance at the right time.
Then, coming out of the conference room, Su Xiangyu immediately informed Feng Mingxun: "Director Feng, today Engineer Ye will come to teach you how to build a brick kiln and burn bricks. I have to go to the county town and contact the county hospital to have a physical examination for the 500 educated youth on our farm. The bill will be paid from the public funds. Let's get to work quickly."
Feng Mingxun frowned when he heard about the physical examination: "I don't even have the money to sell the seeds, why do I need a physical examination? I think we can skip the physical examination this year, right?"
"I'm the manager. I have the final say on how the money is spent. Let's get to work." Su Xiangyu said.
In fact, every farm has money to provide physical examinations for educated youth, but in recent years, no one has done it to save money. Now that Su Xiangyu has taken office, the physical examinations must be carried out.
[Congratulations, host. The physical examination was able to detect potential diseases of five educated youths in advance. You have earned another 10,000 gold coins for yourself.] The system said.
You can make money and do good deeds, why not? After getting a set of good quality underwear, Su Xiangyu is now going to the county town to do external relations.
"My godfather is coming to the farm today. He will be unhappy if you leave." Mu Tie followed behind Su Xiangyu and said unhappily.
However, seeing Su Xiangyu get on the bus, he followed too.
In addition to contacting doctors at the county hospital to conduct physical examinations for the educated youth on the farm, Su Xiangyu actually had another thing to do, that is, she had to get to know those trader bosses that Ye Xiangdong was familiar with.
This is an era in which logistics and communications are extremely underdeveloped. Some people have dates at home, but they cannot sell them because selling them would be speculation. However, Ye Xiangdong has this ability. He knows where in the entire E'er County the dates can be sold.
Some families have saved honey for a year and want to sell it out, but they don't dare to ask others for help, so they go to Ye Xiangdong. Ye Xiangdong can find a way to introduce them to someone and help them sell the honey.
At first, Su Xiangyu didn't understand why Ye Xiangdong had such great magical powers, until she saw a person's name written on his notebook, then she understood why.
The first person on his list was Xiao Wang, who had sold her something at the department store last time.
Of course, following Ye Xiangdong's instructions, Su Xiangyu got out of the car and went straight to the department store without even going to the hospital.
"What? Are you really going to take over Mr. Ye's business?" Xiao Wang was stunned when he first heard Su Xiangyu's purpose.
But on second thought, since Ye Xiangdong is already married, if he is caught in the business of profiteering, he will be dismissed from his public office. Letting Su Xiangyu come is actually a kind of protection for Ye Xiangdong to a large extent.
So, Su Xiangyu passed all the information that Ye Xiangdong had saved up for the whole New Year to Xiao Wang, and then started chatting with Xiao Wang about family matters.
"Comrade Xiao Wang, do you know if there is any private channel for moving bricks?" Su Xiangyu asked after she had gotten used to the routine.
Xiao Wang thought for a while before saying, "People in the countryside live in caves, so they don't need bricks. But in the city, there are many places that need bricks. The county committee is going to build a building, so they definitely need bricks."
If the county committee wants bricks, it has to go through formal channels and not go the route of profiteers.
"Thank you then. In a few months, the educated youth from our farm may come to you to deliver eggs. You must accept their eggs then." Su Xiangyu said again.
Xiao Wang's name is Wang Xinyue. According to Ye Xiangdong, her father, Wang Jianshe, is the president of the entire E'er County Supply and Marketing Cooperative. In other words, the entire E'er County Supply and Marketing Cooperative is under his control.
Of course, a leader would not collect things from farmers privately. At this time, Xiao Wang was his third hand, helping him to purchase items from farmers and educated youth, and then sell them together with public items, and get rich quietly.
By this calculation, Ye Xiangdong and Su Xiangyu are their accomplices.
So Xiao Wang was very polite to Su Xiangyu. Seeing that she was about to leave, he quickly grabbed a few handfuls of melon seeds and candies for Mu Tieduo.
After coming out of the department store with Mu Tie, the little guy had his two pockets full. He followed behind Su Xiangyu, and the pockets full of melon seeds and peanuts made a jingling sound. He was so happy that he almost forgot his own last name.
And at this time, Su Xiangyu was about to go to the hospital.
It would be noon by the time they went to the hospital again. Mu Tie was anxious. After all, it was New Year's Day and he heard that his godfather had been working overtime. He hadn't seen him yet, so he wanted Su Xiangyu to return to the farm as soon as possible because he wanted to see his godfather.
It actually only takes a few minutes to get to the hospital. All Su Xiangyu has to do is find the director of internal medicine, register for the physical examination, and pay the deposit. Then she just needs to go back to the farm and wait for the doctor to come to the countryside with his medical bag.
But after coming out of the hospital, Su Xiangyu limped and walked into the grain station again.
The grain station in the county, like the supply and marketing cooperatives and the meat processing plant, are all prime units. To be honest, they are more sought after than the county party committee and county government. After all, it is a unit that manages grain.
Su Xiangyu came to ask about the prices of grain and pesticides this year.
After all, spring planting is about to begin, and the price of grain seeds fluctuates every year. She has to plan well and find a way to get the money for grain seeds before spring planting.
"Isn't this Xiangyu? Why are you here?" Zhu Wen, Zhu Lin's father, is also the director of the grain station. Because of Feng Mingxun's relationship, he has always been very nice to Su Xiangyu.
Moreover, this person always speaks with a smile and does not offend anyone.
He also called his men and scooped a bowl of the newly distributed grain seeds for Su Xiangyu to see.
"Every farm plants different things in the spring, but right now everyone is basically planting wheat. After all, wheat is a fine grain, and grain stations like to buy it," Zhu Wen said with a smile.
Su Xiangyu asked, "Is the price of wheat seeds also higher?"
"Of course, one pound of wheat seeds can be exchanged for three pounds of corn seeds. After all, fine grains are much more expensive." Zhu Wen said, reaching out to touch Mu Tie's back and said with a smile: "I know this little guy is smart, and he has a really bad temper. How come he gets along so well with Xiang Yu?"
Mu Tie poked his head directly onto Su Xiangyu's butt. Su Xiangyu thought, this kid must be born with a love for fragrance, why does he always stick to people's butts?
After asking the price, the two men walked out of the grain station.
But when he came out, Mu Tie looked back at Zhu Wen and whispered, "Godmother, did you notice that Zhu Wen's feet are really big?"
"You should at least call him Uncle Zhu, not just call him by his name," said Su Xiangyu.
Mu Tie didn't want to: "This Zhu Wen often comes to our Wulan Farm. He originally wanted to adopt me, but I heard Feng Mingyan secretly tell people that he kicks people when he's drunk. He had a second daughter, who was accidentally kicked to death by him."
[Attention, Mu Tie is planning a crime again, and he even stole the pesticide used by the grain station to mix grain, just to harm someone.] The system is warning again.
It's really hard to do anything about this kind of intelligent little bad guy who is always thinking about how to harm others.
"So you saw me talking to Zhu Wen with a smile. Are you afraid that I will give you to him?" Su Xiangyu said.
Mu Tie bit his lip and ate the piece, then nodded awkwardly.
"You are wrong. I am lazy, greedy, and I especially like to order children around. You just need to make water for me to wash my feet every night and sweep our floor in the morning. I will not let you run away even if you want to. Even if you run away, I will chase you back. You have to follow me all your life and be my watchdog." Su Xiangyu would not say sweet words, but she didn't mind giving Mu Tie a promise not to give him away.
After all, the system asked her to reform him, and when he was a minor, she was counting on using Mu Tie to make money from the system.
Mu Tie walked forward, took two steps, threw the thing in his hand far away, and spat.
Apparently, he had thrown away the pesticide he had stolen.
Su Xiangyu remembered what Mu Tie said just now. He said that Zhu Wen's feet were particularly big.
As far as she could remember, the large warehouse at Chaoyang Farm had once caught fire, and the captain of the male educated youth team, Wang Hongming, had died in that fire.
Su Xiangyu still remembers the several large footprints they found outside the farm when they were tracking down the arsonist.
Although the incident did not happen, Chaoyang Farm now belongs to her. Zhu Wen's smiling face and his two big feet have always lingered in her mind.
We haven't reached the farm yet, but from afar we can see outside the farm, where a karez was once dug, the educated youth are working in groups of five to build a brick kiln. It's almost eight o'clock and it's getting dark. Normally, they should have gotten off work long ago, but why haven't they done so yet?
Zhu Xiaojie saw the school bus from afar and ran towards it with her hands outstretched. Soon, several female educated youth followed her. Originally, this was not a stop, but the driver had no choice but to open the door in advance and let Su Xiangyu get off.
"I just can't stand Fan Yiping. She's too showy and always sticks to my brother-in-law. I really want to tear her apart." Zhu Xiaojie said as soon as she met Su Xiangyu.
"Who is your brother-in-law?" Su Xiangyu was confused.
Xu Wenli also came over: "Engineer Ye, let's do some calculations. Xiangyu is younger than us, right? Since she is younger, she is our sister. Doesn't that mean Engineer Ye is our brother-in-law?"
Zhu Xiaojie raised her hands and said, "Originally we wanted to be lazy and go back to sleep, but Fan Yiping pestered Engineer Ye to teach her and tried to get close to Engineer Ye. She was so beautiful that we had to keep a close eye on her."
So, the reason why they are so aware today is just to help Su Xiangyu keep an eye on Ye Xiangdong?
They can endure it, but Ye Xiangdong can't.
After being pestered by a group of girls for a whole day, he raised his hands, pulled off his gloves and said, "I have almost finished teaching the procedures. I have to go back to the factory tonight and work overtime. If you have any questions in the future, please tell Director Su and I will teach her what to do. Please, stay away from me, okay?"
This was the first time that Ye Xiangdong felt that being too closely clingy with female comrades was a nuisance, because their chattering almost drove him crazy.
Fan Yiping is a good person. He doesn't leave work when everyone else is off work. He wants to try to burn the first batch of bricks to see what the situation is. So he just sits down and starts eating dry food.
Hou Yong was dating Yu Weiwei, Qi Dali was dating Xu Wenli, and Zhu Xiaojie wanted to see if Fan Yiping was really positive or not. Moreover, she envied him for his strong body, big butt, and thin waist, which was so sexy. She was angry and didn't want to see him anymore, so she dragged the others to watch Fan Yiping.
Ye Xiangdong worked on the farm all day today. He had to work overtime when he got home in the evening. He felt dizzy even when he walked. What made him even more dissatisfied was that Su Xiangyu did not show up the whole day.
"Sister Su, if I had known you were not on the farm all day, I would never have come to make bricks for you." He said angrily, patting the mud on the soles of his shoes.
Mu Tie was pragmatic in this regard: "Godfather, my godmother has everything except a car. If we hadn't been waiting for the car, we would have come back a long time ago."
In this era, not to mention the shortage of cars, owning a car was unthinkable unless you had connections in the capital like Feng Mingxun.
"Really, you want a car?" Ye Xiangdong took off his gloves, looked up and asked Su Xiangyu.
Su Xiangyu knew very well that both Ye Xiangdong and Mu Tie liked to do some crooked things. If she said she wanted a car, Ye Xiangdong would probably be able to command a group of dealers to buy one for her from the border of the Soviet Union tomorrow.
So she quickly said, "It's good to have a bicycle. In this day and age, driving a car is like dying."
But Ye Xiangdong is the type who always responds to requests: "If you really need a car, just tell me earlier and I'll get one for you."
Mu Tie is not only a thief, but also a bad guy. He thinks he knows people's minds very well and deliberately provokes Ye Xiangdong: "Feng Mingxun is so famous because he has a jeep. If you also have a car, I guarantee that you will be more famous than him."
Doesn't this expose Ye Xiangdong's weakness?
Su Xiangyu hinted to him that she was no longer pure, which was enough to make Ye Xiangdong feel uncomfortable. Now because of his father's car, Mu Tie had stuck another thorn in his heart. How uncomfortable he felt.
As soon as I got back to the farm, I met Ji Huaiguo who happened to be down for inspection, and he brought a group of other branch managers with him.
"Well done, Director Su. According to the public's feedback, several of your classmates have the highest awareness and work the hardest. In this regard, all the directors of other branches admire you very much." Ji Huaiguo said, holding Su Xiangyu's hand.
Mu Yite from the Sanfen field also said: "Every time I try to mobilize my wife, she scolds me for a long time. At least in terms of mobilizing relatives to work, I am far behind our Xiao Su field director."
Mobilizing relatives is a big problem for field managers.
What about the second uncle's third uncle? For each sub-field director, he is the most difficult type to mobilize. If you want to mobilize him, he is a relative of the field director. If you don't mobilize him, do other educated youth have to work harder, while they are the ones who do idle work?
But Su Xiangyu's relatives, such as Zhu Xiaojie, Yu Weiwei, Xu Wenli, and Yu Lei, are actually more active than other educated youth. Isn't that infuriating?
When they met Ye Xiangdong, of course the managers had to continue chatting with him for a while.
After all, as the number one trader in the county, Ye Xiangdong's relationships with these field managers are hidden from public view.
Su Xiangyu was already exhausted. Now that she had money, she asked the system for facial cleanser and a set of Sanqiang underwear and autumn clothes this morning. She had to go home to receive the express delivery and have a good sleep on the heated kang.
However, as soon as she arrived at the pigpen, she was greeted by a fishy smell so bad that Su Xiangyu couldn't stand it.
Apparently, Feng Yueba and Yu Lei are cooking something dark again.
"It's really strange. I cooked it according to your method, Xiangyu, but why does the meat taste so smelly?" Feng Yueba said, holding a piece of camel meat brought by Ye Xiangdong.
Xiaoman was not afraid of the smell of meat. She used a small knife to cut the camel meat. Even if she couldn't chew it, she would keep it in her mouth and chew it over and over again. With her small stature and round face, she stood at the door and ate with relish.
Mu Tie pouted, feeling almost disgusted.
"Xiao Yueba will definitely not be able to get married when she grows up. She always eats those stinky things. Yeah, they are so stinky." Mu Tie hurriedly complained to Su Xiangyu.
"It's over, it's over. You're insulting me again. There's no meat to eat tonight." Su Xiangyu rolled her eyes and said.
Mu Tie quickly pulled Xiao Man over and gave her a kiss: "I was just saying, she's not smelly, and she smells really good. I want to eat meat, but I only eat meat cooked by you."
Su Xiangyu picked up the piece of frozen camel meat and looked at it for a while, then asked Yu Lei to go to the warehouse, get a planer, put a piece of newspaper underneath, turned the planer over, and started to plan the meat.
The frozen meat is flattened into thin slices with a planer and then rolled into small rolls. It looks pink and tender and looks very nice, but I don't know if it tastes good.
"Yu Lei, go call Zhu Xiaojie and Fan Yiping and the others. We're going to have hotpot tonight." Su Xiangyu said as she looked at the camel meat rolls that were shaved off for her and were still frozen.
Now that bricks have been made, getting rich is not far away.
Because of her excellent relatives like Zhu Xiaojie and Yu Weiwei and her teammates who support her so much.
Today, she must give them a good meal.
