Chapter 60 My second brother can’t hide behind
"Yuanxing! What did you say? Building a factory?"
The old secretary widened his eyes, and after hearing Shen Yuanxing's plan for the brick factory, he was so shocked that he knocked over the ceramic jar on the table.
Shen Yuanxing wiped the water stains on the table with a towel and puffed out his chest proudly: "This is all An An's idea. I always say that my sister has been smart since she was a child."
The old secretary's mouth twitched. This girl-praising maniac is here again.
He could see that the Shen family had a filter that was ten meters thick for Shen Anan. Before, Shen Anan never left the field, but Shen Yuanxing still praised his sister for her calm temperament.
However, this brick factory...
Shen Anan ignored her second brother's silly smile and said seriously, "There are several mountains next to our village. We definitely have enough raw materials for making bricks. I have also solved the technical problems. There will definitely be no problem with the product."
"This time when I went to the county, I found that many factories had demand for red bricks. I have already made an agreement with Deputy Director Zhao of the furniture factory. Once our red bricks are fired, as long as the quality is good, our factory will supply the red bricks for one of the dormitory buildings of the furniture factory."
"As long as we take the first order, our brick factory will be able to make its first pot of gold. Besides, there is a lot of demand in the county. As long as we can get subsequent orders, this brick factory can continue to operate."
"Maybe in the future, everyone in our team can become workers!" Shen Anan did not forget to paint a big picture for everyone.
Accountant Hu standing next to him began to breathe faster after hearing this. The raw materials for red bricks are free, only some manpower is needed, so the profit is huge!
Others might not know, but he, who was in charge of the brigade's accounts, must know! The harvest this year was poor, and there wasn't much money left in the accounts. I was afraid that everyone would be owed part of their dividends by the end of the year!
Oh! There is no way, I am poor!
Accountant Hu couldn't help but persuade him: "Captain, Secretary, this factory can be run, it will definitely make money!"
The old secretary came to his senses and said firmly: "Let's do it! As long as it's good for the team, this factory will be established!"
He has been observing the situation in the team over the years. Most of the fields in their village are broken land and mountainous land, which are not fertile. Everyone lives a very difficult life.
Shen Yuanxing was a little worried: "But in the commune, no brigade has run its own factory yet. If we open this brick factory now, will it be considered cutting off the tail of capitalism?"
The old secretary shook his head and said, "It's okay. Don't worry about the formalities. I'll take care of it!"
"I'm half buried in the ground. As long as it's for the good of the team, I will definitely complete these procedures, even if it means kneeling down to the commune leaders."
The old secretary spoke in a firm tone, and one could still see the spirit he had when he joined the army.
Shen Anan was not too worried about the procedures for the brigade's brick factory. As far as she knew, the commune would probably issue a document early next year to encourage the brigade to set up its own factory.
After all, although the policy is high-pressure, we cannot ignore the lives of the grassroots people. In fact, there is still some room for change.
Her approach of running a brick factory was actually to seize the market ahead of time. After the commune encouraged the brigade to set up factories, the market competition would definitely become more intense.
Shen Anan thought for a moment and said, "Second brother, I think you'd better write a detailed plan for opening a brick factory. Be as detailed as possible and include our subsequent sales channels and orders from the furniture factory. This way, the commune leaders will also be able to understand it in more detail."
The old secretary nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's time to write a charter."
I didn't expect that the daughter of the old Shen family is so capable, and most importantly, she is selfless and can truly consider the team's interests.
He's old, and the brigade secretary who succeeds him must be someone who can do practical things for the people. But there's no rush, he still needs to take a good look...
"Oh right, let my second brother go to the production brigade to handle the paperwork. He's the brigade leader after all, so he can't just sit back and wait. This is his responsibility!"
"If he doesn't take the lead in this matter, it will be embarrassing!"
Shen Yuanxing patted his chest and said, "Old Secretary, I can definitely get this done. If they don't agree, I'll go there every day."
"Okay, then we'll wait for your good news."
The old secretary glanced at Shen Anan subtly, and he retracted his previous evaluation of Shen Anan's selflessness.
But he didn't say it out loud. He was already at that age and had no intention of stealing the credit.
But how could she be sure that the procedure could be completed?
This factory establishment was the first time for a young lady to get married in a sedan chair in the commune.
When Shen Anan saw the old secretary's expression, she knew that he understood her intention.
But she didn't care. Although opening a brick factory was to improve the economy of the brigade, it was more to bring honor to her second brother.
In the original book, Shen Yuanxing was pressured by the original owner to open many backdoors for Duan Hongzhe and even arranged a job as a scorekeeper for him. In the end, he was reported to the commune.
When the commune came down to hold a new election, of course no one wanted to vote for her second brother.
After Shen Yuanxing lost his position as team leader, he became depressed. Later, because he went to the city to help her find Duan Hongzhe, he was hit and killed on the street.
Shen Anan could feel that Shen Yuanxing was public-spirited and liked to be busy for everyone, so she didn't mind giving him a push in this life.
If he could develop the Wanyang Brigade, he would naturally be noticed by the higher-ups. After all, this was the Shen family's roots, and she also hoped that the team would get better and better.
Shen Anan and Shen Yuanxing were discussing the development of the brick factory. Accountant Hu next to them couldn't help but join in, and the office was bustling with activity.
The old secretary suddenly spoke up: "An An, the brigade took advantage of your family in the wild boar incident. This time, for the brick-making recipe, what's the right price? I'll consider it as the brigade buying it from you."
The old secretary knew that as a member of the Shen family, it would be inappropriate for Shen Yuanxing to bring up this matter, so he simply did him a favor.
Accountant Hu was a little embarrassed: "The team doesn't have much money left, and the brick factory still needs to build kilns and factory buildings. Can we owe it first and then pay it back after we sell the bricks..."
Accountant Hu became more and more embarrassed as he spoke, and his voice became lower and lower.
He also knew that it was impossible to ask someone to give out the recipe without paying, but the account was really...
Shen Anan thought for a moment and said, "I know our team is in trouble, and I don't want any money."
"We're going to renovate our house next spring. When we buy bricks from the production team, can they charge us the cost price? Is that okay?"
Accountant Hu thought about it and his eyes lit up.
As far as he knew, a worker in the town's brick factory could make eight to nine hundred bricks a day, so the Shen family wouldn't need that many bricks to repair their house.
The old secretary made the decision: "That's it. When you build your house, all the bricks will be supplied free of charge by the team's brick factory."
"Oh, how embarrassing." Shen Anan was overjoyed. Although she had enough money to buy bricks, it would be nice not to spend any money.
"No, no, it's us who should be embarrassed. After all, it was the team that took advantage of you." Accountant Hu touched his head embarrassedly.
"It's all for the good of the team."
