The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

Li Ming closed his eyes and said slowly: "It is not in line with the current trend. This hair dryer is an object of pleasure."

"And it uses electricity, so you can't use it if there's no electricity when you need it."

Qin Huairu asked: "After it is produced, will it be exported?"

Quite serious, Li Ming opened his eyes and patiently analyzed her:

"As a cost issue, we don't have a corresponding industrial chain. The production cost will be higher than that of Ou Magnesium. The price is not comparable to others, and there is no brand effect. The product is not competitive."

"There are also industrial products that we can't just sell if we want to."

"The blockade not only prevents us from buying things, but also prevents us from selling things. It only allows us to sell some primary products or things that they have not produced themselves."

In the 80s, low-level manufacturing industries such as clothing were able to move to the mainland. In addition to rising wages in Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan, labor-intensive industries would naturally move to areas with low labor costs.

What's more, in order to win over us, the Magnesium State, which was at a disadvantage in the struggle for hegemony between the Soviet Union and Magnesium, lifted its blockade on us and opened its market to us.

The reasons for disintegration are reported in black and white every year by Magnesium’s think tanks, parliament, and government. They are written clearly: through communication and contact, we will disintegrate!

We are brave enough to accept such a challenge and eat the sugar coating.

Decades later, the magistrates felt that this strategy could not deal with us, so they began to engage in various tricks to block the country again.

It's a pity that we have cleverly established close economic and trade exchanges with various countries. If the country doesn't give us enough benefits, other countries will not follow suit.

The landlords had no surplus food, so they only had coercion and no inducements. This had been going on for several years, but no country responded except for a few countries that followed.

Lou Xiao'e is also studying and has a little understanding of international trade. "Those capitalists will find ways to do business as long as there is profit."

"A lot of wheat from Canada and Australia is actually wheat from the United States, and they are sold to us again after changing hands."

Li Ming ate the fruit fed by Qin Huairu, "People with different interests gather into a group, and there will always be different opinions and interests within the group. It's normal."

"We will also have similar problems within our company in the future. Some people will only focus on the subsidiary's own interests and will not be willing to implement the company's overall planning plan."

"For such people, if they don't correct themselves after the conversation, we will remove them from that position."

Lou Xiao'e responded: "Well, I will remember it."

"By the way, Manager Xu and Consultant Huang have given support to the little boss named A Hai this afternoon as you requested."

"Ahai is willing to provide information twice a week in the future. Urgent information will be reported immediately to the security company."

Li Ming said indifferently: "Whatever. If you have it, come, if you don't have it, forget it."

Qin Huairu checked the time and realized that it had been a long time since she came out. "You two take your time and chat. I'll go back first."

Lou Xiao'e asked with concern: "Sister Qin, the bruises on your body don't matter, do they?"

Qin Huairu said angrily: "You two are messing around with me!"

"It doesn't matter, my mother-in-law went to live in the same house as Yu Yui again. She was covered with long-sleeved clothes so that no one else could see her."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and teased: "Why do I think you enjoyed it just now?"

Qin Huairu retreated and said, "I don't have time to argue with you. Master, send me back quickly."

"Know it!"

Two days later.

May 4nd, afternoon.

Innovation Technology Research Institute in Beijing.

As soon as Zhang Haiyang came back, a large enamel teacup filled his stomach with water.

"It's such a crazy weather. It felt chilly even if I wore long sleeves the day before yesterday, but I feel hot even if I wear short sleeves today."

Luo Yun asked strangely: "Hasn't that engineering book been sent to those large units? Where did you go?"

Zhang Haiyang burped and said, "I'm going to pick someone up. Some of my friends were released today. I'm going to pick them up."

"Who to pick up?"

"Joint action."

Luo Yun suddenly realized: "It turned out to be those people." "Are you getting together with them again?"

Zhou Xiaobai, who had been reading silently, also raised his head.

Li Ming has emphasized many times that he is not allowed to have anything to do with those people to avoid being implicated.

Zhang Haiyang said quickly: "They have changed their stance and have become good comrades."

“They also joined in on the visit.”

Luo Yun gave Zhou Xiaobai a warning, "Don't be confused with them, or you will be arrested too."

Zhang Haiyang sighed and said: "My interest is waning, everyone has no ideas."

The main reason was that it was out of date. A month later, the 'Joint Action' held a commemorative event and then ended the event.

Many of them completely changed their names in order to avoid having trouble finding jobs as soldiers.

Decades later, relying on personal connections, they are active in various fields. Except for close people and old rivals, generally no one knows that they have such an experience.

Li Ming chose to stay away.

You walk your single-plank bridge, and I walk my sunny path. Not only will I not interact with these people, I will also not interact with those who are currently in the limelight.

He lived his small life peacefully and made some small inventions.

Zhang Haiyang saw the advertisement in the newspaper and said, "Li Ming quietly advertised in RM Daily!"

When it came to her boyfriend, Zhou Xiaobai couldn't help but asked aloud: "What advertisement?"

Zhang Haiyang asked, "Haven't you seen it yet?"

Luo Yun replied: "The newspaper was just delivered." Nowadays, a daily newspaper only costs 1 yuan and 5 cents a month, so the institute just ordered one.

Zhang Haiyang pointed to the corner of the newspaper, "The advertisement for the instant noodle production line, the contact information left is for the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill."

When Li Ming saw an advertisement for cold-processed glass products in a newspaper, he asked the factory to find a newspaper to advertise. If the sales increased, the company could publicize the research and development achievements of the steel rolling mill.

Luo Yun stood up and said, "Show me."

Zhang Haiyang handed the newspaper to Luo Yun and asked Zhou Xiaobai, "Zhou Xiaobai, where did your father take our instant noodle production line?"

Zhou Xiaobai waited for Luo Yun to bring the newspaper, "I didn't ask. It must have been taken where it is needed."

Zhang Haiyang lamented: "If the production line is still there, we can produce instant noodles and find people to build factories."

Zhou Xiaobai was recently in bed listening to Li Ming complain about a lot of troublesome things about building a factory, "You said it lightly."

"Where do you get the flour? Where do you find the palm oil? How do you solve those plastic packaging? Even the simplest salt is probably not something you can solve. There are a lot of problems."

Zhang Haiyang smiled and said: "Isn't there also Li Ming?"

Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun read the advertisements in the newspaper together and kept talking.

"He is very busy every day, how can he have time to deal with so many things!"

"It would be great if the instant noodle production line is spread out and instant noodles can be produced all over the country."

The advertisement is as simple as a round pancake with a few lines of text description.

Luo Yun teased: "Xiaobai, you really feel sorry for him."

"I don't think he is actually busy. He just uses his mouth to let others do the work."

"Look at our innovation research institute, he puts you in charge."

Zhou Xiaobai quickly defended: "He is now the deputy leader of the security team of the steel rolling mill committee, and he can't refuse many meetings. Meetings take up a lot of his time." Luo Yun was surprised: "He has been promoted again! "

Zhou Xiaobai was a little proud, "Yeah. In fact, he can be promoted to deputy director of the steel rolling mill. Many worker representatives want to elect him."

"He thought the deputy director had too many meetings to hold, so he turned it down. The deputy head of the security team also accepted the meeting because he couldn't turn it down."

Luo Yun smiled and said: "Then I have to call him Deputy Team Leader Li."

Deputy team leader Li was directing the construction team to carry out infrastructure construction at this time.

The location is right next to the cold storage of the steel rolling mill.

The initial output was relatively low, so a temporary small workshop was built to make do.

Steel bars, cement, bricks and tiles were all appropriated from the construction site of the family building, and no money was spent for the time being.

He has announced a plan to build a factory, gathering 50 people at 400 yuan each, plus the 1 yuan he contributed, and raised 3 yuan to establish the Red Star Ham Sausage Processing Factory.

Registration will only start tomorrow. He started building a small workshop today to increase everyone's confidence in this matter.

400 yuan is not a small amount, and most people need to borrow money from someone to get it together.

Only when things can really work out will others be able to borrow money.

"Chief Li, what is the difference between the ham sausage you want to produce and ham and sausage?" asked Qiu, an old colleague and the leader of the staff building engineering construction team, curiously.

He did not call him Deputy Team Leader Li, which was a somewhat awkward title between the two of them. There are too many directors and team leaders at this time, and I don’t even know what their level is.

Li Ming thought for a while and said: "The appearance of ham sausage is like a sausage. The name is purely because it sounds nice and reminds everyone of ham and sausage."

"The sausages we usually see are dried and not cooked."

"Let's put it this way, ham is a soft sausage-like food that has been cooked and can be eaten directly."

"It tastes a bit like luncheon meat."

His vague explanation was that he didn’t want everyone to think that the ham sausage was filled with sweet potato flour and corn flour.

Team leader Qiu finally understood, "It's lunch meat. It doesn't have any meaty taste."

"If you want to preserve food for a longer period of time, you have to sacrifice something. To keep food fresh in a cold storage like this, electricity is consumed."

Li Ming added: "At that time, we will introduce new dishes for everyone to try, and everyone will rate them. Everyone has the final say whether they taste good or not."

The employee who was passing by carrying bricks asked: "Chief Li, what new dishes are there?"

After working together for more than half a year, we all know that Section Chief Li is easy to talk to and will not be rude when asking small questions from a familiar face.

Li Ming said with a smile: "They are all home-cooked dishes, such as fried ham sausage with celery, fried ham sausage with green pepper, and fried ham sausage with eggs."

"I will ask the chef in the cafeteria to try frying it a few times first, and then launch it after testing. Everyone will not suffer a loss."

Team leader Qiu smiled and praised: "Chief Li has never let everyone suffer."

These words immediately resonated with everyone present.

Everyone in the staff building engineering construction team misses the good days when Section Chief Li was here.

Especially for those on duty during holidays, from time to time there are some rare foods that can be eaten as a gift.

Section Chief Li's reputation is very good in the steel rolling mill~

Security Section Building.

After the specific factory construction plan spread, many people came to see Section Chief Li.

Luo Xun, the person in charge of the security department, explained to the visitor, "Chief Li is not here."

"Everyone, don't rush today. Tomorrow is the time to sign up."

"Section Chief Li told me that if the number of applicants exceeds 50, the candidates will be determined by drawing lots."

Fan Jiawen who was standing by also advised: "There is really no need to rush."

Some people still have doubts, "Is it true that registration is not on a first-come, first-served basis?"

Luo Xun said affirmatively: "Section Chief Li has always been fair, just and open in his dealings. Is there ever a time when everyone was not convinced?"

"The main thing is that Section Chief Li didn't say it himself. He is the one we believe!" "That's right!" "That's right!"

Hearing such rude words, Luo Xun was quite depressed, "I will put a big notice on the wall to explain it right away."

Then another group of people were coaxed away.

Luo Xun said with a headache: "I didn't expect so many people wanted to participate."

"I have to quickly ask Xiao Wei to help write a notice, so as not to waste time every time."

Fan Jiawen was not surprised, "The section chief had let the news out long in advance. He had previously established a building materials factory, and the consumer cooperative in the factory was also the section chief's suggestion."

"Everyone must believe that the section chief can build a ham processing factory again."

"It's hard to find a job these days."

Lack of job opportunities is a persistent problem.

Luo Xun handed a cigarette to Fan Jiawen and chatted: "There are only 50 people in the first batch. The quota is too small."

Fan Jiawen said with a smile: "Although the section chief often does things imaginatively, he is very careful and cautious every time."

"Even if the first batch of 50 people fails to make it, the loss will not be big."

"If the factory is ready, you can add more people at any time if you want later."

Luo Xun looked around and asked in a low voice, "I heard that the section chief asked Director Li and Deputy Director Nie to borrow money?"

Fan Jiawen nodded and said: "It seems that there is something like this. I have found many people to borrow money for turnover."

"Although the section chief has made a lot of money, he is used to spending money lavishly. I guess he doesn't have 1 yuan on hand."

Luo Xun asked: "Do you think we should give some to the section chief?"

Fan Jiawen waved his hand and said: "No need. There are a bunch of creditors in the factory. They won't find trouble with the section chief."

"If they take down the section chief, and he gets more than 10 yuan in living expenses every month, when will he be able to pay back the money?"

The salary of the leader who was kicked off will be frozen, and the funds in the bank account will also be frozen. Living expenses of 12 to 15 yuan will be paid every month. Those whose family members are unemployed will also have living expenses.

Hearing this, Luo Xun smiled evilly and said, "I guess that's what the section chief thinks."

"It's unjustifiable that they don't lend it to the section chief this time. I haven't participated in the fund-raising and yet I don't want to lend money to the section chief. People in the factory will scold those brains to death."

Li Ming really had this plan.

The one who owes a lot of debt is the boss.

He came to borrow money from all the members of the steel rolling mill committee. 200 yuan was never too little, and 500 yuan was never too much. It was really hard to say no to those people.

Not to mention other reasons, I used to read a large pile of tabloids provided by Section Chief Li for free every day, and I had to repay this favor.

Coupled with the pressure inside the factory, the leaders of the steel rolling mill readily agreed.

Of course, with Section Chief Li's ability, reputation, and credibility, no one thought that he would not be able to pay back the money.

Ten thousand yuan is a lot of money, and things still have a big impact.

Many people in the capital also learned from chats that it was Section Chief Li who increased the production of greenhouse vegetables, which enabled the prices of fresh vegetables in winter to be greatly reduced.

People are also full of curiosity about ham sausage. (End of chapter)
