Rebirth 80: Start by earning money to build a brick house

"Second uncle."

"Second uncle."

Seeing their second uncle coming, Zhang Ziming and Lin Yuxin hurriedly said hello.

"I just heard that you guys are back. I came to take a look. It was quite hot along the way, right?" The second uncle rolled up his trouser legs and had just come back from his own fields.

After chatting for a while, the topic turned to the clothing factory.

It is still necessary to communicate about the situation in the garment factory: "Ziming, we have finished harvesting the peanuts and just wait to dry them. There is still a gap before the corn harvest. Our garment factory can start working for more than ten days. "

During the corn harvesting and wheat planting periods, no work can be started either.

Taking advantage of the free period, I have to work overtime appropriately.

The Jinchang No. [-] store and the Min'an County branch are both preparing to open and need to stock up. Time is still quite tight.

While waiting for production, please stay close to the Min'an County branch. The Jinchang Second Store can transfer goods from the First Store for emergency response.

There is no telephone in the clothing store, so communication is really inconvenient. I have to think of a solution after I return to Jinchang.

"Second uncle, thank you for your hard work. The whole family depends on you." Zhang Ziming lit a cigarette for his second uncle.

The garment factory relied entirely on his second uncle's help, and Zhang Ziming was grateful.

"One family does not talk about two families." The second uncle is very satisfied with his current life, and the salary package Zhang Ziming gave him was unexpected.

Who wouldn’t enjoy it when you can earn money at your doorstep?

I used to envy the three brothers who worked in the county town and were rich every month. Now the second uncle believes that among the three brothers, his life is the most valuable.

Zhang Ziming's father is now semi-retired and doesn't want to worry about it; his third uncle works in the county town and is very stable, but he is just a jobber.

In contrast, who wouldn't envy the second uncle who is the factory director at home?

"Ziming, let me tell you something that you may not know." After taking a sip of tea, the second uncle said casually.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Ziming immediately stepped forward and asked curiously.

Are there any big events in the village?

"Yesterday, the commune clerk Li Yue came in." The second uncle leaned forward and said slowly.

"What's wrong? Are you here to find fault again?" Zhang Ziming asked anxiously without thinking.

"That's not true, he came to buy clothes..." The second uncle calmly said with a smile.

"Buying clothes? What kind of clothes should I buy?"

Zhang Ziming was even more curious now.

How many people buy ready-made clothes in the countryside?They are all sewn from fabric themselves.

Are you all following this trend now?

"I thought about it, and he didn't actually mean to buy clothes, but to show his kindness." The second uncle guessed with a frown.

"What's the point of showing off? I'm just a commoner." Zhang Ziming didn't guess what was happening for a moment.

The second uncle continued to explain: "Everyone is rumoring that Secretary Guo will be transferred to the city, and Deputy Secretary Liu will take over. Deputy Secretary Liu has a good relationship with us, so Li Yuejin has an idea."

"Will Deputy Secretary Liu take over? Isn't he not qualified enough? Isn't Deputy Secretary Huang being called to take over?" Zhang Ziming still knows several leaders of the commune. According to usual practice, Deputy Secretary Huang is more likely to take over.

It would be a good thing if Deputy Secretary Liu takes over.

"Deputy Secretary Huang was transferred before, but something happened a few days ago. It seems that Deputy Secretary Huang will be transferred to another commune." The second uncle said truthfully.

"What's the matter?"

"I heard it was..." The second uncle explained in detail. Official gossip was more attractive.

"No wonder, the style issue is not a small issue." Zhang Ziming shook his head after hearing the story.

"Then it would be a good thing if Deputy Secretary Liu takes over." The second uncle added happily.

"Yes, so Li Yuejin is showing his kindness. Li Yuejin has been following Deputy Secretary Huang before. This time Deputy Secretary Huang is transferred and he is not taken with him. He has nothing to do." The second uncle analyzed:

"Secretary Guo doesn't want to see Li Yuejin, and Deputy Secretary Liu doesn't want to see Li Yuejin either. When Deputy Secretary Liu comes to power, Li Yuejin probably won't have the chance to be promoted."

"Second uncle, you should listen carefully to what is going on in the commune." Zhang Ziming laughed.

"Ziming, as you said, I have to take care of this factory for you. There is some trouble in the village or commune, so I mustn't inquire about it." The second uncle patted his chest.

The second uncle's family is poor. Otherwise, if he studies more, he can definitely become an official in the commune.

The garment factory has his second uncle in charge, and the village cadres include Zhang Zhonghe and Zhang Xiaoyong. Deputy Secretary Liu of the commune is taking over, and they are all his own people. Zhang Ziming is absolutely assured.

The only disadvantage is that in the county, only the third, fourth, and fifth leaders are biased towards him.

As for Jinchang City, I haven't contacted the leaders yet. When I find an opportunity, Su Dayou will take him to visit.

"Second uncle, how did you send Li Yuejin away in the end?" Zhang Ziming continued to ask.

"I didn't sell it to him. You also know that we have stopped production now and have no goods. We took them to Jinchang Clothing Store. There are no finished products in the factory." The second uncle said calmly.

"Is he disappointed?"

Isn’t it very disappointing that you haven’t done anything to please?

"A little bit. If he comes again, how will we sell it? We can start the work almost the day after tomorrow, and we can work for about ten days."

"Second uncle, you are like this..."

Zhang Ziming whispered a few words.

"Okay, after the work starts, I guess he will be able to find the wind to come over. Then I will do as you say."

Zhang Ziming looked down upon Li Yuejin very much.

And during the last inspection, he was still acting as a pawn.

Even if this person gives him a good look, he will still stumble secretly. Zhang Ziming does not want to make friends with this person.

"Ziming, can we agree on the production plan?" The second uncle is now self-taught and is very good at all aspects related to production.

"No, just proceed as planned. Don't produce short-sleeves. Focus on long-sleeves recently."

The big plan remains the same, just small changes.

"After planting wheat, we will have plenty of time and can start work with all our strength. The pressure will be transferred from the clothing factory to the clothing store."

What the second uncle said is that if there is busy farming, there will be corresponding slack.

Production can run at full capacity, but sales may not run at full capacity.

Zhang Ziming had planned a high-profile promotion in his mind.

It turns out that the low-key strategy won't work. I need to think about it carefully in the past two days.

"Second uncle, these are the school supplies I bought for Zihui and Ziliang. You can take them back." Zhang Ziming handed a small bag to his second uncle's hand.

"This...how is this appropriate? It makes you worry." The second uncle thanked him repeatedly.

Both cousins ​​were involved. Zihui was in the second grade of high school when she started school, and Ziliang was in the fourth grade when she started school. Zhang Ziming remembered them all clearly.

"Second uncle, come back later and drink two cups tonight." If Zhang Ziming didn't say anything, his second uncle would definitely come over, and Zhang Zhonghe would also be there.

You can't run away if you drink two cups together at night.

I happened to be drinking and talking to Zhang Zhong and Ding about the Min'an County branch.
