Chapter 2185 One by One

The next day.

Zhao Shucheng knew that the investigation team would arrive today, and that the reporters that Director Li had helped to find would also arrive today, so he came to the village entrance early to greet them.

However, what Zhao Shucheng did not expect was that although he arrived early, he was not as early as the elderly people in the village.

These people spontaneously formed a team, ready to stop the inspection team outside the village and prevent the investigation team from coming in, and they would even risk their lives to fight back.

After Zhao Shucheng knew the whole story, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said to them, "Uncles, uncles, brothers, aunts, and sisters-in-law, thank you for your concern. But our Xiao Lei family is not afraid of their investigation, because we have no problem at all."

"But Dongbao, we heard that..."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "You really don't have to worry. We are a collective enterprise, and everything is operated in accordance with national laws and regulations. We are not afraid of investigation at all. If you stop them from entering, it will make people think that our Xiao Lei family is guilty. Everyone go back and wait for our good news."

The old people were a little worried at first, but when they saw the old branch secretary and Zhao Shucheng asked them to go back, they left with peace of mind.

The investigation team drove to Xiao Lei's house and when they were about to go in, they saw another car parked next to them. Several reporters with cameras got out and were filming.

"What's happening here?"

"Director Shao, I'm sorry. We didn't know your investigation team was coming today. We originally found reporters from the provincial capital and planned to publicize the Xiao Lei family and ask them to publicize the reform achievements made by the Xiao Lei family with the support of the county. We didn't expect to run into you."

When Director Shao heard that it was a reporter from the provincial capital, he was in a dilemma. He originally wanted to arrest Zhao Shucheng and interrogate him, hoping to get him to reveal the problem of County Magistrate Xu.

But now reporters from the provincial capital have arrived, and they are with the investigation team. It is impossible to arrest Zhao Shucheng now. If there is no problem, Xiao Lei's family should even be praised and the newspapers should report it extensively.

But if he did so, he would violate the purpose of his visit and even make his backers feel that he had betrayed him, and he would then be in trouble.

Director Shao is now in a dilemma, but he cannot go back in disgrace in front of the reporters. Wouldn't that make him look even more guilty?

After hesitating for a long time, he had no choice but to let the investigation team enter the village to investigate, but he also wanted to delay time and inform his superiors at the same time to see how to deal with it later.

Zhao Shucheng asked the old branch secretary and Lei Shigen to deal with the investigation team, while he took the reporters from the provincial capital to visit Xiao Lei's home and introduce the current situation of Xiao Lei's family.

Reporters were a little skeptical when they first saw such a small mountain village, but they were somewhat surprised when they heard about the income of Xiaoleijia's brick kiln factory, the income of the prefabricated board factory, and even its own construction team and breeding farm. After all, just these industries alone, the average monthly income of the villagers is dozens of yuan, which is almost catching up with the workers in the county.

Of course, they were just a little surprised. After all, it was just a county town and was far from the standard of a provincial capital, not to mention that the buildings in the village were still somewhat shabby.

However, when they arrived at the bamboo weaving factory and learned that this factory was a foreign exchange earning enterprise with an annual revenue of several million, they no longer dared to underestimate the Xiao Lei family.

Because they know very well that even some large enterprises may not make as much profit in a year as Xiao Lei's family, and some enterprises are even still in a loss-making state.

This time they became much more interested in Xiao Lei's family. They took photos excitedly and even asked Zhao Shucheng about the development process of Xiao Lei's family. They were preparing to write a report to promote Xiao Lei's family.

Zhao Shucheng was naturally happy about this, because he himself hoped for this, so he asked Director Li to contact the reporters in the provincial capital.

While checking Xiao Lei's family's accounts, Director Shao reported the situation to Secretary Gong. He specifically explained the incident of Xiao Lei's family encountering reporters from the provincial capital and asked for his opinion.

Secretary Gong was also a little upset. He had originally thought of using the incident of Xiao Lei's family to hold County Magistrate Xu accountable, but now the reporters were here. Could it be that County Magistrate Xu had called them? However, after hearing Director Shao's report that Xiao Lei's family had come by themselves, and that he had asked someone to find out that it was a steel plant in the provincial capital that helped to contact them, he had to believe that this was just a coincidence.

Secretary Gong could only ask Director Shao to investigate on the spot and examine Xiao Lei's family's accounts. If there were no problems, he would stop investigating Xiao Lei's family and report back to the county.

Although Director Shao wanted to find problems in the accounts, the accounts were clear and obvious. Even if there were some minor problems, it was just other villagers taking advantage of them, and it had nothing to do with Zhao Shucheng and the old branch secretary. He didn't want to arrest the villagers for such a small matter, so after making a simple summary, he could only prepare to go back in disgrace.

At this time, Zhao Shucheng and the reporters had just returned from Xiao Lei's house. When they saw Director Shao preparing to leave, Zhao Shucheng directly grabbed him and refused to let him go, and even invited him to dinner.

Seeing the excitement of the reporters, Director Shao quickly announced the results of the investigation and claimed that he had to go back early to report the situation, so there was no need to eat.

Song Yunhui waved at Zhao Shucheng. Zhao Shucheng knew that he was concerned about Xiao Yangxun, so he leaned over to Director Shao's ear and told him about Xiao Yangxun, asking him to investigate it. If there was no major problem, he could be released, since it was just a small matter like selling steamed buns.

Director Shao agreed readily. He knew very well that if the reporters from the provincial capital went back to report, the Xiao Lei family would be a signboard of the county, so he naturally had to give face, and other people had to give face as well. They couldn't even let this signboard fall down, otherwise it would not be a matter of one person, but a major event for the entire county.

Xiao Lei's family successfully weathered this turmoil. The investigation team and reporters from the provincial capital left one after another, and Xiao Lei's family returned to their original peaceful life.

  However, those companies that compete with Xiao Lei's family are in trouble. They originally wanted to take this opportunity to suppress Xiao Lei's family's companies and gain more benefits. Now that the investigation team has returned empty-handed, they can only compete with Xiao Lei's family face to face.

The county brick and tile factory saw that the bricks and tiles produced in its factory could not be sold, so it could only use price war to squeeze out Xiao Lei's family. At the same time, the neighboring counties and cities also began to implement local protection policies for the sake of local brick and tile factories, refusing Xiao Lei's bricks and tiles to enter their areas.

Xiao Lei's bricks and tiles were in a state of difficulty in sales. To make matters worse, the construction team was unable to accept orders due to policy reasons and did not have construction qualifications, so they were suspended for review. The prefabricated board factory lost the construction team's orders, and other people did not come to purchase, so it also stopped working. Even more seriously, the county purchasing station also began to target Xiao Lei's rabbit hair breeding, and issued a certificate purchase order, and no longer purchased Xiao Lei's rabbit hair.

All of a sudden, several enterprises in the village were unable to start operations, which made the villagers very anxious. They gathered at the village committee and asked Zhao Shucheng to find a solution.

Zhao Shucheng knew that all this was because the Xiao Lei family was now too prominent, making others jealous, so they tried to trip up the Xiao Lei family.

Zhao Shucheng had actually anticipated this situation, so he told the villagers not to worry and to take out the response plan he had prepared long ago.

Faced with the price war, Zhao Shucheng's solution is to hold on. After all, Xiao Lei's family still has a lot of funds in their accounts and is not afraid of competition at all. Instead, the county's brick and tile factories will be the first to give up.

What's more, this may be a good opportunity for Xiao Lei's family. Zhao Shucheng had thought about replanning Xiao Lei's house before, but because the construction team was always busy with orders from the county, they had no time to implement it.

The county's construction work is not possible now, so we can take this opportunity to do the project directly for Xiao Lei's family, building townhouses and apartment buildings. When the time comes, it will be easier to get orders with photos.

The others frowned when they heard Zhao Shucheng's solution.

The old branch secretary even said: "Dongbao, although this method is feasible, we can't just sit back and eat up all the resources."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, I know this won't last long. This is just an emergency measure. The main thing is to get the brick and tile factories, prefabricated panel factories, and construction teams to work. As for the competition, they can't keep going like this. After all, they will be the first to collapse."

"Even if they can't hold on as you said, it will take a lot of time. What about the rabbit fur farming? We can't just keep piling it up, right?"

Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "In fact, rabbit hair is the easiest problem to solve. Before, most of our rabbit hair was supplied to purchasing stations, and the prices were decided by the purchasing stations. We had no sales channels, and we were always controlled by others. Now it's better. We can find sales channels ourselves, and maybe we can get a higher price and better profits."

Lei Shigen asked with some concern: "Dongbao, will this work?"

"Why not? If the county doesn't buy it, can't we find a market for it ourselves?"

Lei Shigen said: "That's not what I meant. I meant where can we find a market? We don't know anything."

Zhao Shucheng said, "There's no need to worry about that. The Magic City is a concentration of textile factories, and wool spinning factories need rabbit hair products for export and sales. If we contact them, they will thank us for providing them with rabbit hair. However, I don't need to do this myself. Let Sibao go with Lao Houhuan. Let Lao Houhuan make amends for his crime and find a way out. Then we don't have to worry about sales anymore."

"Can the old monkey do it?"

"Why not? The last incident is not over yet. If the old monkey wants to continue living in the village, he must show some respect. It is true that the old man is cunning and untrustworthy, but he is also one of the best people in our village who are knowledgeable and flexible. Such people are actually most suitable for sales work. They are good at speaking and are the best at asking others for help."

After hesitating for a while, the others finally agreed with Zhao Shucheng's idea and let the old monkey give it a try.

Seeing the old monkey's back, Zhao Shucheng suddenly thought of something, which is the way to get rich mentioned in many time-travel novels, the Monkey Stamp of the Gengshen Year. You should know that this is the first edition of zodiac stamps issued in China, with a very low circulation, less than 60,000 copies in a whole edition, and the number of surviving stamps is very scarce. Later, the price of a single Monkey Stamp was as high as several thousand yuan, and a whole edition was even hundreds of thousands or millions.

Although Zhao Shucheng knew about it, he did not buy a large number of stamps. After all, he could not make a fortune from stamps. He just wanted to satisfy his desire to collect stamps. Zhao Shucheng called Song Yunhui and asked him to help buy a few monkey stamps from the post office in the provincial capital.

Song Yunhui was very happy when he received Zhao Shucheng's call at first, but when he found out that Zhao Shucheng only wanted the monkey stamps, he was a little surprised. But he didn't say anything, thinking that his brother-in-law just liked to collect them, so he took the money to buy a few copies and asked someone to bring them back to Zhao Shucheng.

The old Party Secretary saw that Zhao Shucheng did not try to solve the problems in the village, but asked his brother-in-law to buy monkey stamps. He was immediately angry and said, "Dongbao, it's already this time, and you are still playing with these unreliable things."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, you are anxious again. Things have to be solved one by one."

"The problem with the rabbit fur factory has been solved. The brick and tile factory can start a price war. This was discussed at the beginning, but what about the construction team? Didn't you hear what Siyan said? The commune is going to review the qualifications of our construction team. If we don't have construction qualifications, we won't be able to take on construction projects in other places."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, don't worry about this. In fact, this is not a problem."

Shi Hongwei said anxiously: "Dongbao, how can we not be anxious? Our construction team is full of veterans. We have built most of the houses in the county projects. But now they want a technical qualification certificate. Why didn't they mention this when they signed the contract for the project?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Look at all of you, you can't keep your cool. Actually, this is understandable. You all bury your heads in work and don't even look ahead. In the past, it was a planned economy, so no one knew about this. Later, when it was opened up, everyone rushed to get anything that could make money."

After looking at the others who had kept their mouths shut, Zhao Shucheng continued, "But every industry has its own rules and standards, so the country can't just watch the barbaric development of all industries. It must formulate corresponding rules and regulations, and even formulate corresponding standards, so as to maintain the normal order of work, labor, study, and life. Besides, construction projects are never trivial matters, and people have to live in them."

"If quality control is not strict, some unscrupulous builders will start cutting corners and even build shoddy projects that collapse when the wind blows or even collapse or have problems with the slightest vibration. Shouldn't they be held accountable then? So it is inevitable to introduce policies to allow construction teams to have construction qualifications so that they can be held accountable later."

Shi Hongwei said anxiously: "No, are we just going to wait like this?"

Zhao Shucheng said: "Who said that? Since we need the corresponding qualifications, we should strive for them and take the exams. Do we have to wait for others to give them to us?"
