1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

"Why am I bothering? I'm too busy to handle everything." Chen Tiezhu said with a wry smile.

"Didn't I tell you that if they have better medicine for treating burns, we can get some from them and use them here."

"This is a little different from usual. Usually, they are all normal patients. This time, we have experienced such a big accident, so we don't distinguish between them."

"I was shocked. I thought they were going to abandon us." Ma Guoming said with a relieved burden.

"We have already contacted them. Their people will come to meet us later. If we use their ointment, we are also worried that there will be drug conflicts."

"So even if everyone is kind, we have to discuss it. Fortunately, the Chinese medicine hospital now also uses a lot of Western medicine technology, so there should be no problem."

"Then we will do it. It can make these people get better as soon as possible and help the county solve the problem." Chen Tiezhu stretched.

"I won't stay here any longer. I still have to go to the county bureau. I was too tight on time yesterday. I didn't have time to talk to Director Hu about some things."

"That's fine. Go get busy first. I guess someone from the provincial hospital will come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to take away the surgical videos you performed." Ma Guoming said with a smile.

"This guy has been made into a treasure. Go get busy first. Who knows how many nagging things there will be." Chen Tiezhu joked.

Now we have only dealt with the first wave of patients' families. There will be a second wave next. If someone takes the opportunity to make trouble, he won't stay here for long.

Qi Cuiwen will stay here first. When Han Zhenwen wakes up, the two of them can stick together.

"Dad, can Grandpa Hu have something delicious?"

When he heard about going to the county bureau, Doudou's little face fell instead.

"There is delicious food. If it doesn't work, we can go to the machinery factory." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"That's fine. Dad, can Doudou go to kindergarten?" the little guy asked again.

"Well... it depends on you. Dad can let you play in the kindergarten, but you have to wait until Dad comes to the county." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Our home is still a little far from the county. If you go to the kindergarten every day, Dad will have to pick you up every day. Do you want to go to kindergarten? Don't bring all the little animals with you to kindergarten in the future."

Chen Tiezhu really didn't know what to do about his daughter's request.

In theory, playing in kindergarten can make Doudou happier. However, his daughter is a little different from other children.

She also misses the little animals at home. If she clamors to bring the little animals to kindergarten again, it will be difficult to deal with.

"Then Doudou will play with them for a while." Doudou thought about it and said.

I still can't let go of my friends at home.

But because of the kidnapping of San Yatou last time, everyone in the village is more concerned about the children. So the children don't have much time to go out to play, and even if they go out, the adults will follow them.

When his daughter had this idea, he turned a corner and sent the little one directly to the kindergarten of the machinery factory.

As soon as he got here, Doudou's eyes were shining, there were really a lot of children.

Arrived at the county bureau, and rushed directly into the office of Director Hu.

"You got up quite early? I thought you had to rest at home today. Pour yourself some water." Director Hu said.

"You came early and stayed in the county hospital for a while. This matter is not small, right?" Chen Tiezhu asked.

"It's really not small. The comrades of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection have already intervened." Director Hu said.

"But this has nothing to do with us. We just cooperate with the work. I have also drawn up the list of people to be sent to your two companies. When will you go?"

"Next month on the 1st, not long. Bring your household registration book and your letters of introduction, that's all." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Now that these people have been arranged, I can finally put my mind at ease. I may not have much time to go back to the county, and I am busy with things at home."

"How is the production arrangement at home?" Director Hu asked.

"It's just busy, anyway, it's going according to plan." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"This year, there are a lot of cash crops that need to be cultivated, and it's the first year to plant these, so I'm a little worried that I won't be able to take care of them well."

"There's nothing wrong with mushroom cultivation. Now the mushrooms in my shed have grown, and they are all used as seedling sheds. The space is a little small, and I have to set aside a shed for this purpose next year."

"Still raising seedlings? It's so troublesome at that time." Director Hu asked in surprise.

"It's okay, right?There will be some additional costs in terms of labor. But the survival rate will be higher, and it will be easier to take care of it in the future. "Chen Tiezhu said.

"For example, we will plant some watermelons and cantaloupes in greenhouses. These melons can be put on the market long before they are put on the market. We can sell them at a slightly higher price so that everyone can have a taste of them. Is that okay?"

"You can sell them at whatever price you want. When you get a large quantity of watermelons, please send some to our county bureau as welfare." Director Hu was not polite at all.

"This guy is worse than a bandit." Chen Tiezhu shook his head.

"You can send them, but you can find a car to pull them. The small four-wheeled car I bought will become our commuter car. Some of them are not enough, and we will have to buy more in the future."

"I am still quite curious. Can you really make so much money from farming? More than running a business?" Director Hu asked curiously.

"How can I say this? It is completely based on quantity. "Chen Tiezhu thought for a while and said.

"With a large volume, the average cost will be reduced. Profit control also depends on volume. Small profits but quick turnover, and you will make money slowly."

"Although the current supply of materials has improved significantly compared to before, it is still relatively insufficient. As long as we set reasonable prices, some melons and vegetables that are on the market early can indeed make some money."

"It seems that there are many ways to do business. Are there no problems with these two enterprises in the county?" Director Hu asked.

"It should be no problem. Later we will also strive to mass-produce explosion-proof forks and telescopic sticks. How many sets do you plan to purchase? Can you recommend them to us?" Chen Tiezhu asked with a smile.

"I thought you could hold back. The explosion-proof forks are estimated to be around 300, and the telescopic sticks will be less. The lethality of this thing is indeed quite large." Director Hu said.

"But we are very tight on funds now. Can we use them first and pay later? But don't worry, I will definitely pay you if you don't owe me money."

Chen Tiezhu scratched his head, feeling a little worried.

This is how it is to do business with acquaintances, but he really doesn't want to break the rules he set.
