Reborn in 1981, the first to get rich start with dairy cows.

Building the pigsty was just a side story. Shen Changping had noticed that Shen Dong had been walking a bit too fast lately, and he wanted to use this method to tell him to be down-to-earth and to take each step firmly. He didn't mean for him to bury his head in the ground.

After grasping this meaning, Shen Dong began to work on improving and optimizing the products of the dairy factory and several joint venture factories.

Apart from Wushan Food Factory, which was doing relatively well before and whose equipment was not too outdated, Shahe Food Factory and Dongfeng Food Factory were not doing so well. Both their environmental hygiene and employee quality were significantly worse.

Things that go into our mouths need to be given extra attention; Shen Dong has always emphasized this concept at the dairy factory.

Therefore, the smoking that used to occur in the workshop has gradually disappeared, and the habit of spitting everywhere has also been gradually changed due to fines.

But joint ventures are different; they have their own rules and regulations, and you, Shen Dong, can't boss them around. Ultimately, it's just a cooperative relationship.

But that won't work. Since we've claimed that they're all produced by dairy factories in Shanghai, the quality must remain consistent.

"Director Liu, the government has already officially issued a document, and an investigation may be launched at any time. I'm saying all this for your own good and for everyone's good. Why can't you understand?"

Shen Dong looked at Liu Chenglong with a helpless expression. As the director of Dongfeng Food Factory, Shen Dong thought that Liu Chenglong would gladly accept his proposal. After all, he was the first to support it at the meeting. He didn't expect that he would be the first to run into a wall.

These days, while researching materials and learning about history, he suddenly discovered an important piece of information: this year, the state will conduct a comprehensive rectification of state-owned industrial enterprises, and will simultaneously carry out a comprehensive inspection and acceptance of commune and brigade enterprises, including collective enterprises run by communes and brigades, in terms of financial rectification, production standards, safety and hygiene, and business order.

This is no joke; it's a large-scale, nationwide inspection. Those that fail to meet the standards will have to rectify or be shut down.

In order not to delay production, Shen Dong has already conducted a comprehensive inspection of the dairy factory and has also come to notify Dongfeng Food Factory.

"Hey, Director Shen, we're doing just fine, and there haven't been any problems. Why are you being so careful about this and that?" Liu Chenglong was also very annoyed.

We're all factory managers, why are you pointing fingers? What's the meaning of this? If it weren't for the money, I wouldn't bother with you.

"Director Liu, as I said, this is a matter governed by a national document, so we must take it seriously. Otherwise, if it gets shut down, everyone will be in trouble!"

Good advice is useless to those who deserve to die; compassion is useless to those who choose to die.

Shen Dong talked for a long time, but Liu Chenglong wouldn't take the bait, repeatedly saying the same thing: "I'm fine, everyone's doing this, don't cause trouble."

His attitude was normal. Starting in 78, the number of township and brigade enterprises increased dramatically within a few years, but the system failed to keep up. This unbridled growth led to various problems, but since every enterprise was the same, they didn't think it was a problem.

Since this place doesn't work out, let's try other factories.

I then visited Shahe Food Factory and Wushan Food Factory. Fortunately, although both factories were in bad shape, they had made some money from the dairy factory these days and saw hope for overcoming the difficulties, so I still supported them.

Of course, at first everyone thought Shen Dong was making a mountain out of a molehill, and they reluctantly agreed.

Having agreed, Shen Dong immediately sent someone over to supervise.

Because the Shahe Food Factory did not have a canteen, Shen Dong set a daily lunch subsidy standard of one yuan, and the workers immediately rushed to go.

The course of history seems to have gone wrong at some point; the acceptance process, which was supposed to begin in autumn in the previous life, suddenly started.

It's only been a little over a month since the post was published in February!

"Xiao Shen, you must cooperate actively and conduct thorough self-examination. Our county's advanced commune and brigade enterprises are counting on you."

Shen Dong was holding the phone; it was from the county, and Chen Jianghe was giving him instructions.

Just ten minutes ago, he was talking to people in the factory when Yang Yujun called him over.

It turns out that the higher-ups have already come down, from the district to the county, and then to the commune and brigade, and joint inspection teams are being set up.

"Don't worry, Secretary Chen, our dairy factory will definitely not let us down."

"Okay, once this is over, I'll personally visit your factory."

"Thank you, Secretary Chen! Our Baotashan Dairy Factory will certainly live up to your expectations!"

After hanging up the phone, Shen Dong clenched his fist excitedly.

Previously, his connections were limited to the commune, and in the county, he was only acquainted with the agricultural machinery station. After listening to Chen Jianghe's words, he felt much more at ease.

"How is it? There shouldn't be any problems, right? I've already received the notification that the inspection team is coming tomorrow, and the commune's enterprise bureau will also be sending people."

As usual, Yang Yujun asked a question, but seeing Shen Dong's confident expression, he said no more.

Shen Dong did not return to the team, but went to Wushan Food Factory and Shahe Food Factory. The two factories were trying their best to cooperate, but time was too tight. Many bad habits had not yet been corrected, but the factories' accounts had been sorted out in the past few days and had been greatly improved.

Even though Liu Chenglong wasn't cooperating, Shen Dong still shared his information.

Hearing that the investigation team consisted of so many organizations, he finally showed a flustered expression.

"Director Shen, you have to help us!"

"Damn it," Shen Dong cursed inwardly. "I told you to stop making excuses all the time, now you're scared."

"We're in this together, we can't just stand by and watch someone die!"

Shen Dong rolled his eyes, sneered, and turned to leave.

I'd have to be crazy to bother with your stupid business!

The dairy factory is fine, but there's a newly established handicraft factory in the Hongqi production team. The paperwork is definitely in order, but the financial records are likely problematic.

Upon arriving at the team, he solemnly explained the consequences to Li Shangen. Hearing that the account might be frozen, he was terrified and quickly asked Shen Dong to call Tao Aihui over. He himself was too scared to walk.

If his account is really frozen, he will be the culprit for the entire team.

After Tao Aihui arrived, the group held an emergency meeting, and Shen Dong even sent someone to call Li Meiyu over to help check the accounts.

The biggest problem with handicraft factories is the blurring of lines between public and private interests. However, many factories have this problem because they are relatively new and don't have much financial dealings, so it's not a major issue.

After visiting several factories in a row, Shen Dong was exhausted.

The inspection team will be here tomorrow, so there's still time to make final rectifications.

Lying in bed that night, Shen Dong began nervously reviewing the materials again.

Why was it suddenly brought forward?

Logically speaking, my rebirth should only be a minor flap of my wings, unlikely to affect the overall situation.

Now that it's been brought forward by a full six months, it's certainly caught us off guard.

Oh well, as long as I do my own thing, there won't be any problems.

Shen Dong had just closed his eyes when he suddenly remembered a question that had been bothering him all day, a question that had made him feel like he had forgotten something since morning.

That piece of land in the southern area!

Those are two acres of land without a contract!
