Rebirth of the New Farmers in the 1980s

Like Lin Lairong, Yin Zhenfei didn't show much interest in the machine tool industry, and he also came to the machine tool workshop for a while.

When he came out of the old factory, it was almost noon, and Wan Feng wanted to take Yin Zhenfei to Wankou for dinner.

"No! Just eat in the cafeteria in your factory, and see if you are a kid who is superficial and picks up the employees behind his back."

Wan Feng was depressed: What about me!

There are both old and new canteens of Nanwan Group, each with a separate two-story building, and the scale is quite amazing.

At noon, people whose homes were no more than five miles away from Linan Dawan basically went home for dinner.

Those who eat in the cafeteria are the accommodation staff and employees whose homes are five miles away from Nandawan.

There are about fifteen or six hundred people.

Fifteen hundred people were scattered in the two cafeterias, which was also very lively.

The cafeteria has two dishes every day at noon, and the dishes for lunch today are fried kohlrabi and stewed tofu with cabbage.

The staple food is rice.

Wan Feng and Yin Zhenfei entered the cafeteria of the new factory without hesitation. Wan Feng went to the food vendor to buy vegetables and rice himself, and asked two workers to help bring them to their tables.

Three bowls of rice, two dishes for one person.

"Boss Yin! I don't think it's embarrassing for you to eat this at noon after coming all the way."

"There's nothing to be ashamed of. Eating is a form. It's a good thing to fill your stomach."

He is easy to serve.

"Alright! Let's get together again in the evening."

Although there is no meat in the dish, it is full of oil and water, and the taste is quite good.

"Not bad, good oil and water, it seems that you are not a black-hearted boss."

"Boss Yin! This has nothing to do with whether I'm black or not? Meals are not free, they have to be bought."

"Then how do you charge for meals in this cafeteria?"

"It's the cost price. If you can remember the price of the food in the restaurant five years ago, it's basically the same as that, a little more expensive. A bowl of rice costs seven cents, the tofu costs a quarter, and the turnips cost a cent."

Yin Zhenfei was surprised.

The price brought back some memories for him.

"In Shenzhen, let alone a dime, there is no food for one yuan, and a bag of instant noodles costs one yuan and five. How did you manage such a low price?"

ah? When instant noodles sell for seven cents a bag all over the country, one in Shenzhen sells them for one yuan and five?

Although Wan Feng often went to Shenzhen, he really didn't pay attention to the price of instant noodles.

"Most of them are grown by themselves, because many people in the nearby villages are working in various enterprises in Jiangwei, so a lot of land is idle in the nearby villages. I contracted out these lands and hired some older farmers to plant them. They pay wages, they grow vegetables for me, it’s as simple as that.”

In Dapuzi, Huanghui, and Shangqiao Village, Wulu Township to the south of Nandashan, Wanfeng contracted thousands of acres of vegetable bases.

Farmers who cultivate the land enjoy the treatment of employees of the group, as long as they can guarantee a certain output.

In this way, he can get all kinds of vegetables at the lowest price and supply them to the group.

The same is true for seafood. He has two offshore boats on the Black Reef, and all the fish caught are included in the menu of the cafeteria.

With the support of Wan Feng, Yu Qingtao built a cold storage in Heijiao. After a few years, he became an entrepreneur in Heijiao.

Wan Feng kept two forty-four-horsepower boats. The uneatable seafood was frozen in Qingtao's cold storage, and it would be fine to send a car to bring it back whenever it needed.

As for pork, didn't Liu Jiu start raising pigs? Wan Feng simply ordered all the pigs he raised.

Isn't it just a hundred pigs? It doesn't feel like a lot for 1,500 people to share a hundred pigs.

"Are you grouping everything related to your group?"

"This can save costs to the greatest extent. Isn't it the same to run a business and live at home? When it's time to budget carefully, you must plan carefully."

"You boy, you are not very old, but you have a plan in doing things."

At this time,

Several Soviet technicians in the machine tool workshop also walked into the cafeteria.

"Do you have foreigners here?"

"Haha! Dozens of them are technicians."

"Which country are they from?"

Caucasians look almost the same in the eyes of Chinese people, and they can't tell which country they are unless they say their nationality.

"What you see are the Soviets. They have been here for several years, mainly engaged in the research of machine tools. There are also some who just came, and the personnel composition is a bit more complicated. There are more Helan people than Lishi people."

"When Chinese people still hold foreigners in a state of mysterious wait-and-see or even worship, you have already used foreigners for China."

"What's wrong with foreigners? Aren't they human beings? Why can't I use them? I'm also their boss."

Yin Zhenfei found this kid more and more interesting.

"Are they treated the same as domestic employees?"

Wan Feng shook his head: "The other benefits are the same, but the salary is different. After all, they really master some core technologies, so it is only natural to give them high salaries."

Yin Zhenfei agreed with this point.

Next, Yin Zhenfei asked some questions while eating, and when he learned that Wanfeng's enterprise products are integrated operations, he showed a little doubt.

"Isn't it the lowest cost to manufacture the parts yourself? It won't cost you to use other people's products."

"It depends on what kind of parts it is. Of course, the core parts must be in your own hands. I don't think there is much difference between the production of general-purpose parts and other people's production. After all, there are specializations in technology, and you can't be professional in all fields. In non-professional fields, you know that the components produced by enterprises in professional fields are guaranteed to be more costly than those produced by other companies in professional fields, and the quality is not as good as others.”

Yin Zhenfei thought for a long time before expressing his disagreement: "I don't agree with your point of view. I think it's more safe to produce my own products."

Wan Feng smiled: "What you said is also reasonable. It depends on everyone's self-understanding. Over the past two hundred years, every technological development and breakthrough has brought huge profits to capitalists, so capitalism has replaced feudalism. But with the continuous development of human society, more and more scientific and technological progress can no longer be achieved by individuals or a single group. In the past, a simple invention could give birth to one or a group of capitalists. But now an unsatisfactory A humble invention may not produce any effect, and many such inventions are shelved, which requires human beings to further integrate various science and technology. I think so, whoever can integrate the most resources in the future will be able to stand The pinnacle of the era."

Yin Zhenfei stopped the chopsticks in his hand, Wan Feng's words made him feel enlightened.

"Your words make sense. I'll think about it when I go back."

After eating, Wan Feng walked out of the cafeteria with Yin Zhenfei and Cao Anyi.

In the afternoon, he will accompany them to visit the new factory.
