Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chen Changan's words made Uncle Nie silent. According to Chen Changan, the investment was too large. The country was poor and did not have that much money. Now the priority was to have enough food.

As for motorcycles, they are not a necessity. It is good to have one, but it is not unacceptable not to have one.

Chen Changan also understood that the current production of motorcycles could only meet domestic demand. Many units needed them, and then the country would count the annual output and complete the task as planned.

Chen Changan's idea came from later generations. He had invented the motorcycle many years in advance, so he had to export it to earn foreign exchange no matter what, right?

So he said to the silent Uncle Nie, "Uncle Nie, this is what I think. We can build a small factory first.

After all, it requires so many machines, venues, and personnel. There are too many things involved. It is difficult to adjust.

The most important thing is skilled workers. Machines can be bought at will, but skilled workers need a long time to be trained. Most of the people recruited now are not well educated. Even if they are smart and learn quickly, it will take at least half a year or even a year for them to be able to operate some simple parts independently.

For this kind of large-scale manufacturing factory, without several years of foundation and a large number of skilled workers, it would be difficult to increase production even if it had more machines.

It would be better to start with a small factory, focus on training workers in the early stage, and then accumulate experience. When we can increase production, we can also go abroad."

I don't know what Chen Changan said that touched Uncle Nie. Maybe it was to build a small factory first, or to go abroad. Uncle Nie seemed to have made a decision, but he didn't tell Chen Changan.

He stood up and said to Chen Changan, "Well done, wait for the news."

This made Chen Changan a little uneasy. Uncle Nie might need to explain the situation to the senior leader, or he might need to persuade someone. These high-level games were not something Chen Changan could get involved in.

A few days later, Chen Changan received the news and went to the meeting in the ministry. With a nervous heart, Chen Changan came to the meeting room in the ministry.

It was still Uncle Nie, but this time it was no longer Chen Changan who put forward the conditions. Instead, it was the department that issued the task and needed Chen Changan to complete it.

The department decided to choose a new site as the first choice to build the Sijiucheng Motorcycle Factory. All the necessary machinery was in place. Of course, the price was that there were almost no skilled workers, and Chen Changan had to train them all by himself.

In terms of personnel, priority will be given to recruiting unemployed young people in the city and a small number of villagers from the surrounding areas. The ministry will also assign some cadres to some important positions.

For example, the party secretary of a factory, but the secretary is only responsible for party building and personnel.

Production training and other construction work still needs to be completed by Chen Changan.

All raw materials are also provided according to the plan, and the production task is to produce 3,000 units in the first year, 5,000 units in the second year, and no less than 10,000 units in the third year.

This task was not too difficult for Chen Changan, except for the early stages, when there were a lot of unemployed young people and rural guys who had never studied mechanics. Just thinking about it made Chen Changan feel painful.

But there is no way, we could bargain during the previous discussion.

It's not possible now, because this is an order. After Chen Changan accepts it and guarantees that these tasks will be completed.

Uncle Nie asked, "Changan hasn't joined the party yet, right?"

Chen Changan nodded awkwardly. Not to mention this life, even in his previous life, Chen Changan had not been able to join the party.

Uncle Nie said, "When your factory starts construction in a few days, you will meet the secretary of your team. I will tell him about this matter. A factory director cannot be a non-Party member."

Chen Changan nodded and could only agree. He was looking forward to meeting the secretary soon, and hoped that everyone would do their job and not overstep their boundaries.

After leaving the department and returning to the processing plant, Chen Changan also talked to several people separately.

First of all, Chen Changan will definitely take away those who have some mechanical processing technology in the workshop, represented by Shi Ping and Hou Mingjun. This is a very Changan team.

When we go to the new factory, we still need them to teach the newcomers step by step.

After that, they looked for Old Lu, Sister Hou and Xiao Su respectively. But what Chen Changan didn't expect was that Old Lu didn't want to go.

The reason turned out to be that he had been guarding the gate of this machinery factory for so many years and didn't want to bother with it anymore. The new factory must have a security department and they would have to train people to use guns, but he, an old man, didn't want to bother with that anymore.

Come to think of it, as you get older, you always feel nostalgic. Old Lu has been guarding the gate here for so many years and has witnessed the decline and prosperity of this factory.

The more this happens, the more attached I am to this place. Now that I'm old, I don't have to leave if I don't want to.

Needless to say, Sister Hou is such a smart person, of course she knows where is better and is naturally willing to go.

What Chen Changan didn't expect was that Xiao Su, a little girl who had just graduated from a technical secondary school, was unwilling to go.

When asked the reason, she was hesitant and unwilling to say more. Finally, Chen Changan found out from Sister Hou. It turned out that it was because Chen Changan blatantly wanted to fire Yan Jiefang in a meeting a few days ago, which made the girl think that Chen Changan was not a good person.

Relying on his power as factory director, he exploited employees with family difficulties at will.

Although Xiao Su did not report Chen Changan to the street office because of this, he still disdained Chen Changan's character. He believed that Chen Changan was not a good person, nor a good leader, and was not worth following.

After receiving such news, Chen Changan was stunned for a long time before realizing that this was not the future.

The students of this era have the pride of the students of this era.

They are not afraid of the powerful and have their own ideals and ambitions.

They have just come into this society, and the people and things they have seen and come into contact with have not changed their views yet.

Chen Changan himself may not be able to do it, but he admires such people, especially those who can do this for their entire lives.

Everyone has their own aspirations, and Chen Changan didn't force them. When Xiao Su and Sister Hou first came to the processing plant, Sister Hou wanted to bring Chen Changan and Xiao Su together.

It turns out that Chen Changan is obsessed with looks, and he has no interest in Xiao Su, who has average looks and a bad figure.

I am still young, so it doesn't matter if I wait a few years. As his status gets higher and higher, Chen Changan becomes more and more helpless.

I can only try my best to ensure that I will not be hit or implicated in future disturbances.

Even if he had to find one, he had to find an obedient one, even if it was a country girl, Chen Changan had no objection.

There was no emotional basis at all. In that era, there were many examples of couples reporting on each other.

Don’t let the situation happen that while Chen Changan is fighting outside, a traitor appears in his own family.

Not only will it harm myself, but also my sisters. It's not worth it. Even if you are a rural girl, you can change your household registration if you have a formal job. Even if you don't change your household registration, isn't it just one person's food ration?

Chen Changan wondered if the grain in his cellar would go bad after three years of natural disasters.
