Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 171
Fang Dongping said regretfully: "It's a pity, but other people have to make most of such a high profit. We can only earn a small commission. To be honest, I am not reconciled."

Niu Xiaoqiang's heart skipped a beat: "Perhaps... there is a third way."

"Oh?"

"We only take out a part of the order, for example, the quantity of 20 bearings. Even if each bearing only charges 2000 yuan for tapping, the total is [-] yuan. With this money, we can either transfer the wires or Buy a diesel generator yourself, so that you can solve the electricity problem to the greatest extent."

Due to the serious shortage of power generation, Aoshan Town often suffers from power outages. If the power lines are connected to the power lines used by residents, it will be difficult to guarantee normal production order in the future.According to what Niu Xiaoqiang said, if you buy a diesel generator, you can indeed solve this hidden danger to the greatest extent.

Fang Dongping understood what Niu Xiaoqiang meant as soon as he heard it, and he said happily: "Okay, let's do this! I'll go and call them both!"

Fang Dongping was impatient, he stood up immediately after speaking, and walked towards the town with Niu Xiaoqiang.

There is a shop not far from the small yard where he used to live. Last year, the shop was closed for a period of time because the wind was too strong. Later, when the wind passed, the shop reopened.

Fang Dongping knew the owner of the store very well, so he took out [-] cents and put it on the wooden counter: "Old Ding, I want to make two calls."

Telephones are not too rare in big cities, but they are very precious in a small place like Aoshan Town.Boss Ding usually locks the phone in a cabinet and takes care of it like a treasure.Hearing Fang Dongping's words, he smiled and took out the key to open the cabinet door, took out the phone and connected it to the line.

Fang Dongping called quickly, and would hang up immediately after briefly explaining the situation.No hurry, because phone calls are very expensive.A public phone call in a big city costs a few cents, and in some places there is no time limit.But this is Aoshan Town, and the cost of installing a phone here is very high. In addition to money, you must have a way, otherwise the people in the Information Bureau will not talk to you at all.

Because the cost is higher, the cost will naturally be more expensive. After all, the wool comes from the sheep.Calls in this store are charged by time and frequency.If a call does not exceed 1 minute, it is 1 cents, and after 1 minute, every extra minute is charged [-] cents.This fee is several times more expensive than in big cities.

After Fang Dongping finished the phone call, he greeted Lao Ding, and then returned to the cave factory with Niu Xiaoqiang.

When he got to a place where no one was around, Fang Dongping took the initiative to explain the situation: "They all said that they would come over as soon as possible to negotiate face to face."

Only then did Niu Xiaoqiang let go of his heart completely.

After the two returned to the air-raid shelter, they sorted out the information about technological innovation that they had tinkered with, and neatly transcribed them in a notebook.

It was almost 05:30 by the time I finished this.Niu Xiaoqiang said hello to Fang Dongping and was about to go home. Unexpectedly, not far from the entrance of the cave, he heard someone calling Fang Dongping's name loudly at the foot of the mountain.

Niu Xiaoqiang turned his head and saw Chen Jianguo and Jiang Ronghua looking around under the hillside with their bicycles on their shoulders.Fang Dongping simply told them on the phone that he lived in an air-raid shelter. The two of them were not familiar with the situation here. There were so many air-raid shelters on the mountain, so it was naturally difficult for them to find a place after they arrived.

Niu Xiaoqiang hurriedly responded loudly and waved vigorously at the two of them.The two breathed a sigh of relief after they found out, and walked towards this side with their bicycles on their shoulders.

"Master Xiao Niu, you are really there, and you actually opened the factory in such a place, which made it difficult for the two of us to find it for a while."

Before he came to the front, Chen Jianguo said with a wry smile.

Niu Xiaoqiang greeted the two of them very politely: "Hello, Uncle Chen, and Uncle Jiang, there is nothing we can do. If we don't save money, it is impossible to open the factory."

Jiang Ronghua smiled and asked curiously, "I heard from Mr. Fang that you are going to transfer a batch of bearings to us, right?"

Niu Xiaoqiang keenly sensed the urgency in his words. Although he felt strange, he still replied truthfully: "That's the thing, my master is cooking inside, let's go in and talk about it."

The two agreed, put their bicycles at the entrance of the cave, and followed Niu Xiaoqiang into the air-raid shelter.

Fang Dongping was cooking. He didn't expect the two of them to come so fast. He was slightly taken aback before he smiled and said, "I thought you guys would arrive tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come so soon. Since you're here, why don't you drink with me?" Have a glass, wait a while, I will prepare two more appetizers."

The two hurriedly took out their respective gifts from their backpacks. Besides canned food and white sugar, they also brought snacks like peanuts and pig ears.

Fang Dongping smiled even more happily: "This relationship is good, Xiaoqiang, set up the hot pot."

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded, and skillfully set up the hot pot, and arranged the dishes and chopsticks by the way.Not long after, Fang Dongping poured a large pot of bacon and cabbage into the hot pot, and the three of them sat around under the dim kerosene lamp and began to eat and drink.

Niu Xiaoqiang gave up the idea of ​​going home immediately. He was going to confirm the number of taps, so he moved a small stool and sat aside, listening to the exchange of information between the three.

After a few sips of wine, Jiang Ronghua sighed deeply: "Fang Gong, let me tell you the truth, if you hadn't called me today, I would pack up and go back to the countryside tomorrow."

Fang Dongping asked in surprise, "Didn't you do a good job, why are you going back to the countryside all of a sudden?"

In Fang Dongping's impression, Jiang Ronghua was very good at making money, earned much more money than Chen Jianguo, and was worth more than [-] at least. It's been less than a year, how did he fall to this point?
Jiang Ronghua smiled bitterly: "It's all my fault when I say it. I always wanted to take advantage of the loopholes to make more money, but I didn't expect to end up working for nothing."

Chen Jianguo shook his head, and added from the sidelines: "Lao Jiang didn't apply for any production licenses, and he didn't have any business licenses. Last year, when the rumors got tight, he was the first to be targeted. Although they didn't arrest him, but The fine was quite a lot, and he was fined to the point where he was almost closed."

Fang Dongping said loudly: "So that's what happened, Boss Jiang, you are too courageous. Since the reform and opening up until now, the general situation has not been so clear. In this case, you must pay more attention to it." , Don’t break the law, you’re lucky, you just came to operate without a license, isn’t this hitting yourself at the gunpoint?”
