1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 191: Thief
There are many problems at Panjin Livestock Company.

There are omissions of varying degrees in the empty house time, first-phase vaccination, lighting, temperature, humidity, ventilation, epidemic prevention, observation and control of chicks' stress response, feed feeding, drinking water control, and even the prevention of proventriculus (the source of cryptosporidiosis) and coccidia and observation of early symptoms.

The reason why so many problems arise is not because of the technical difficulty of these links... In fact, the relevant technical issues and operating specifications have been clearly marked in the breeding manual, and the content has even been detailed to what should be done at what age of broiler chickens, and to what extent these things should be concretized in terms of time and amount.

It can be said that the "817 Broiler Breeding Manual" compiled by technicians from the Poultry Research Institute of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences according to Yang Mo's requirements has reached the level of the "fool's manual" of later generations. Even a newcomer who knows nothing about broiler breeding can raise broilers properly after getting the manual.

But the result?

There are still a lot of problems at Panjin Livestock Company, and problems occur in almost every link.

Although there were many reasons for the problems, and some people even used the excuse of "not being able to recognize all the words in the manual" to excuse themselves, after an afternoon of on-site confrontation, almost all the leaders present saw the real problem... lack of responsibility.

In a word, if they continue to do this with a playing-house attitude, let alone generate any revenue, it would be good enough if Qingfeng Food doesn't kick them out.

………………

"Xiao Lu, now I finally understand why Team Leader Yang wanted to focus the joint breeding project on the fifth farm."

"It's one thing that the foundation there is good, but the key is... the attitude over at the Fifth Farm is much more upright than here!"

Liu Xianfu, who was sitting in the back seat, sighed with emotion, and his expression was not very good.

I didn't have a very pleasant chat with the senior management of Panjin Livestock Company this afternoon. Although they finally promised to rectify the problematic links and hold the department personnel responsible accountable, it can be seen that they are very averse to this embedded supervision model...even more so than in the previous two months.

Lu Yingying nodded: "What Mr. Liu said is right. The lack of enthusiasm for work here is a big problem that cannot be avoided. The lazy mentality of muddling through has been engraved into the bones of everyone from top to bottom... A large part of the employees and backbones of the Fifth Farm are retired military personnel. Although there were various problems at the beginning, their obedience is there after all. It is undoubtedly much easier to help them optimize and rectify each link through intervention methods and then enter a positive feedback loop."

Liu Xianfu nodded, agreeing very much with what Lu Yingying said.

At that time, most of the main workers on farms across the country were retired military personnel, and the Fifth Farm was no exception.

Just as everyone has their own personality and traits, a unit like the Fifth Farm, which has a large number of demobilized military personnel, may not be very good at business management, but in terms of hard work and obedience, it is definitely not comparable to ordinary state-owned enterprises.

Since they have retained a lot of habits from the military, most of the time as long as you have a legitimate reason and say "this was decided by the superiors", no matter what they think at the time, they will basically honestly rectify and optimize the work in every link according to your requirements.

Therefore, as long as you are proven to be right in the end and your work can quickly get positive feedback after rectification, they will easily be convinced by you and then carry out the next round of two-way rush... The army is more result-oriented than ordinary units and respects the strong more.

Therefore, if things go as expected, after the second batch of broiler chickens are released and the fifth farm reaps an even bigger surprise, they will be completely stable.

Rubbing his temples with a headache, Liu Xianfu asked tentatively: "Xiao Lu, what do you think... can you spare some time to ask Team Leader Yang, after the second batch of broiler chickens are released, why don't we just terminate the status of strategic partners of the other three companies except the Fifth Farm, and then we can choose a few new reliable companies ourselves?"

Liu Xianfu explained, "Qingfeng Foods is not short of money now. We don't have any financial difficulties in investing in a few more units to join the joint breeding project... The main thing is that this joint breeding project is very important to our company. At present, except for the Fifth Farm, the situation of the other two units is similar to the Panjin Livestock Company you saw today... Nearly half of Qingfeng Foods' broiler raw material supply is in the hands of these units. To be honest, I am really worried!"

Lu Yingying looked at him strangely, not understanding why he asked her to ask Yang Mo for his opinion. Not only had Yang Mo no longer been the leader of the business guidance group, but it was said that Vice President Feng still had a lot of opinions about him... Qingfeng Food's superior company was Xintai Company, and Xintai Company was the territory of Vice President Feng and Vice President Tang. Liu Xianfu should not have been unable to see the relationship involved!

However, she could also understand Liu Xianfu's concerns. After expanding a large number of franchise outlets, Qingfeng Food, which owns the Momo Baizha and Momo Baichao projects, has achieved a staggering monthly turnover of 4000 million. The company's main business gross profit has also reached 310 million per month, which is quite impressive.

But the problem is that since both Momo Baizha and Momo Baichao are affordable and affordable, the dazzling performance is backed by the demand for thousands of tons of various ingredients and more than 500 tons of chicken breasts every month. Therefore, for Qingfeng Foods now, the supply chain has officially become their top priority... It is no exaggeration to say that it is directly related to the life and death of the company.

Therefore, seeing that the three units in the joint breeding project were not doing well, it was only natural that Liu Xianfu came up with the idea of ​​supporting the establishment of several new medium-sized breeding farms... Anyway, for the current Qingfeng Food, there are no financial and technical barriers to such a thing.

only……

After thinking about it, Lu Yingying shook her head and said, "Boss Liu, I think it's better to be cautious about this kind of thing. We should try our best to intervene and rectify the breeding processes of the three companies. If they are really in a hopeless situation... we should wait until they fail to perform their contracts repeatedly before making other plans."

Seeing Liu Xianfu's surprised expression, Lv Yingying explained: "Boss Liu, this is my personal opinion... The investment we made in these three companies is not the point, and the unclear relationship between them and Xintai Company is not the point... The point is their identity as [Strategic Cooperation Unit of Qingfeng Food];"

"Yang Mo originally selected these four companies as strategic partners of Qingfeng Food, and spared no effort to support them in carrying out the joint breeding plan. I am not sure if he had other considerations in this matter;"

"But he once said that goodwill is the most important intangible asset of a company. Even though the current market environment is not completely open, it is still much more important than most people think... Especially for a northern township enterprise like Qingfeng Food that has elements of a central enterprise, the word goodwill not only includes market considerations, but also involves many causes and effects that ordinary people cannot see, and also affects the attitude of some people towards our company... Whether from a short-term or long-term perspective, it is no exaggeration to say that it affects the entire body."

"It is precisely because of this that we must be clear about our attitude towards those three companies. We must not lose our moral integrity... You know, they are one of the few strategic partners of Qingfeng Food. To put it simply, they are our company's brothers who have drunk blood wine and sworn brotherhood with us;"

"If we take the initiative purely for commercial reasons and kick them out in just two or three months, how will others view us? How will the leaders of local authorities view us? Will they think that Qingfeng Food is profit-oriented, heartless, and has no moral or human feelings at all?"

"If we treat our strategic partners, our brothers who have sworn blood alliances, like this, will other companies still cooperate with us sincerely and wholeheartedly in the future?"

As she spoke, Lv Yingying sighed a little depressed: "Yang Mo said that unlike those coastal cities in the south that are already very open, the business environment in Qilu is much more chaotic and complicated... In this era where people are always saying "all state-owned enterprises are one" and "positioning", many things cannot be considered only from a business perspective... Especially since Qingfeng Food is already a company of considerable size and has a certain demonstration effect, this is even more true."

"So, Mr. Liu, my suggestion is... just be patient. The equity structure of Qingfeng Food is somewhat special, and the current situation is somewhat sensitive, so we can only play a defensive counterattack."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xianfu pinched his brows in distress.

He came from a humble background, and although he was the founder of Qingfeng Food, the fact that he was able to sit in the second position of the company and hold a lot of real power was purely by chance.

But to be honest, even though he is the number two, he is sitting there in fear... The development speed of Qingfeng Food has exceeded all expectations. From the day it was affiliated with the drilling company, the various causes and effects involved in this company are no longer as simple as an ordinary township enterprise, let alone now?
He considers himself a rough man. Although he knows a little about the ins and outs of society, he doesn't know much about the rules of the game within the system, especially those of state-owned enterprises and local administrative units. He doesn't have the courage to understand in depth these calculations that are so complicated that they make one's scalp tingle.

Therefore, after realizing the huge hidden dangers in the broiler supply chain, being very self-aware, the first thing he did was not to exercise his authority as the "head of the family" to hold a meeting to discuss replacing suppliers. Instead, he quietly approached Tugou to act as a middleman and wanted to hear the opinion of Team Leader Yang.

There was no way, the shadow Yang Mo left in his heart was too big.

This young man, who was only a few years older than his daughter, not only used a small operation that did not seem to be against the rules, but also seized his lifeline through the insignificant 3% equity pool... No, not only himself, but also the lifeline of the whole village was seized by him in this way.

In addition, the reason why Qingfeng Foods could grow into a giant in his eyes at a speed of blowing up a balloon in just half a year was entirely due to the support of that young man... Through the "business crisis" a few months ago, Liu Xianfu was very sure that since this young man could easily bring Qingfeng Foods to a high position, he could also easily drive Qingfeng Foods into the abyss. To be honest, this kind of empty feeling of holding the real power of Qingfeng Foods in your hands, but the invisible life and death line of the company is being held on the finger of others is simply terrible.

But he really didn't have the courage to rely on the good situation of Qingfeng Food to negotiate conditions with the drilling company, or even to "decouple".

On the one hand, Yang Mo still hasn't figured out what the other party is trying to do with all the new things and package plans he has implemented on Qingfeng Food.

On the other hand, Yang Mo, who was almost a commoner, had directly mobilized hundreds of millions of funds during this period, and his various actions in another world that was far more vast than Qingfeng Food had really scared Liu Xianfu... A young man in his twenties, working with a bunch of top leaders of central enterprises and leaders of local authorities, who actually seemed to respect his opinions. This was the first time he had encountered such a weird thing in his forty-three years of life.

To be honest, if he didn't know that Yang Mo was a local and grew up in the countryside, he would almost think that this guy was the son of a high-ranking official.

Is a young man whose tactics are more cunning than those of a fox, and who can play chess with a bunch of big shots that you may not even be qualified to meet, someone that a small-time character like Liu Xianfu would dare to offend?
Obviously not!

Following the simple rule of the underworld that if you can't beat them, then join them, since Liu Xianfu has no confidence in being able to break away from Yang Mo in the rules of the game, and doesn't have the courage to risk losing all his wealth and career to "seek independence", he can only express his position openly and indicate that he will follow Yang Mo's lead.

Therefore, this is the real reason why he found Lu Yingying and wanted to hear Yang Mo's opinion.

But he didn't expect that before his words reached Yang Mo, Lu Yingying had already rejected his idea... Although everyone knows that this fierce beauty and Yang Mo have a very special relationship, there is a huge difference between whether some decisions are made by you or by Yang Mo.

………………

Therefore, Liu Xianfu could only hold back his temper and once again ask this girl, whose business ability was impressive but who seemed not very proficient in the ways of the world, to pass the message to Yang Mo... The reason was also very reasonable. Manager Liu wanted to ask Team Leader Yang for help in giving more comprehensive and long-term guidance.

Seeing that Liu Xianfu insisted and emphasized the word "guidance", our Tugou classmate finally came to her senses and could only nod and agree in a muffled voice. When Yang Mo comes back, she will tell him about it as soon as possible and ask Yang Mo for his opinion to see if she can let that guy come to Qingfeng Food to communicate with General Manager Liu about this issue.

Liu Xianfu was overjoyed, and quickly said that he didn't dare. If Team Leader Yang was available, it would be right for him to visit him and ask for advice.

Lu Yingying did not comment on this. Yang Mo has always been very reluctant to have people visit him for work-related matters, and his small courtyard is generally not open to strangers. Unless you are Yang Mo's superior, it would be harder than climbing to the sky for an outsider to knock on the iron door.

Unfortunately, Liu Xianfu and Yang Mo have no personal relationship, and Liu Xianfu is not Yang Mo's superior... Therefore, it would be a bit difficult for Liu Xianfu to enter that courtyard.

Obviously, Liu Xianfu was not clear about the relationship between the two. When he saw Lu Yingying agreed, his mood suddenly improved and he started talking more.

"Xiao Lu, it is rumored that Team Leader Yang has been seconded to the special working group by General Manager Wang for more than half a month. Do you think... can Team Leader Yang come back before the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Liu Xianfu rolled down the car window and felt the hot wind blowing towards him, but there was a hint of anticipation and pride in his tone.

At the beginning of the month, he used his connections to order a batch of mooncakes from a time-honored restaurant in Guangzhou. It was said that the mooncakes from that well-known restaurant were not only delicious but also extremely delicate. It would be a great honor for him to personally deliver them to Team Leader Yang.

When Lu Yingying heard Liu Xianfu asking about this, she became unhappy and her tone was also more frustrated: "I really don't know about this. When Yang Mo was recruited by General Wang, he didn't say anything... He was gone for more than half a month, and there was no news in the meantime. There is no definite news whether he will come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival."

No message was sent back in the meantime?
Liu Xianfu looked at Lu Yingying in disbelief, and then he suddenly realized that Yang Mo was recruited into the special working group this time, and all the events he was involved in were major events. There must be some confidentiality regulations, and he was not allowed to go home during the period, or to make phone calls or write letters.

but……

There’s no definite news whether I’ll be back for the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Why does this sound so... resentful?
Could it be...

Turning his head to look at Lu Yingying who was sulking with a slightly pouty face, Liu Xianfu suddenly had a hint of enlightenment in his heart, and the look he gave to classmate Tugou suddenly became a little more flattering.

………………

After half an hour.

The classmate Tugou, who got off work early by hitchhiking, took out his key and unlocked the door.

Perhaps because she was in a low mood today, after turning the broken lock, she did not kick the iron door hard as she did in the past. Instead, she held the welded handle, lifted it up gently, and then pushed it.

Zhi acridine~
With a not-so-harsh grinding sound, the iron gate that had been complained about countless times by a certain senior official opened its arms for the first time with such a gentle voice.

She turned around and casually closed the iron gate. Seeing that the sun was still early, just as Lu Yingying was hesitating whether to dismantle the millstone and the roller at the bottom to wait until it was dried before grinding flour for cooking, a slight sound of water was heard.

Ok?
Did I forget to turn off the faucet when I left this morning?

Shouldn't it?

Classmate Tugou looked over in confusion, and found that the faucet in the yard was turned off tightly. Not only was there no water flowing, but not even a drop of water could be seen.

Since the faucet is not leaking, then...

Tugou took a deep breath, quietly put down his backpack, looked around, and directly grabbed a wooden stick from the corner of the yard... This was the wooden stick that was used to nail the boxes. Although it was not particularly strong, it was definitely enough to teach a petty thief a lesson.

There was no way. The door to the kitchen was locked. If she took out the key to open the door, it might alert the little thief who was taking a shower... Nowadays, people who steal things are not so particular. It is very common to carry weapons in their hands. She didn't want to cause so many unexpected things.

Humph, it can’t kill you, but it can give you a good beating. No kitchen knife is as useful as this thing!
Looking at the crooked iron nails above the wooden strips, Tugou thought with a sneer, and looked towards the simple bathroom separated in the yard with an increasingly unfriendly look.

Haha, you really know how to enjoy yourself!
You saw that everyone is still at work now, and there's no one around, so you sneak in to steal things and take a leisurely shower early, right?
In this kind of horrible weather, it would be nice to take a cold shower, right?

Very good, I will make you feel satisfied in a while!
If I don’t make you cry for joy, the more than ten years of my martial arts training will be in vain, and I will never be able to mention the word “acting in a big show” again! !

Looking at the wooden stick in his hand, which could be used as two short sticks even if it was broken, Tugou took a deep breath, walked towards the simple bathroom with cautious steps, shrinking back and forth.
