The Pretty Military Wife

Chapter 250: Opening a store is for publicity

After Liang Xinyue arrived in the county town, they held a meeting in the conference room of the county party committee.

The key point is how to arrange the pilot work.

Now the land of each team has not been divided up. They are all organized into agricultural cooperatives, with everyone receiving equal pay for equal work. They work together and record work points to distribute the fruits of their labor for the year.

No matter where the land is requisitioned to build the experimental field, it means that the consent of the members of the agricultural cooperative must be obtained.

Everyone here comes from the countryside, and they naturally know how much farmers value rural land.

If they were asked to give up the land, it might affect their food ration for the year.

City leaders instructed:

"The comrades in the county should first come up with a plan on how to appease the people. This is the key point. What the people want is to have food to eat."

Director Ye stressed:

"The main purpose of this experiment is to double the promotion after one year of trial planting. After two years, half of the promotion will be completed in the whole county. Of course, all these will depend on the actual results of the planting."

"In addition, I want to say one thing. Comrade Xiao Liang is familiar with this aspect. Although farming is something our ancestors have passed down for thousands of years, some things still need some science. We need to farm scientifically, mainly to increase yields."

"So, when the county comrades go to the countryside to select land, they contact Xiao Liang and let her participate. We let her make the final decision on the analysis of the land quality."

The county leader nodded and said:

"Comrade Xiao Liang must be involved in this matter. We are going to set up a greenhouse planting promotion group. I propose that the county appoint a leader in charge of agriculture, that is, me, as the group leader and deputy group leader. The first one is Comrade Xiao Liang, because you have the final say on quality and technology."

"I think the second deputy team leader should be Comrade Ren Xing, the director of our Agriculture Bureau. You will be fully responsible for the coordination of personnel, and I, as the team leader, will be responsible for the logistics for you. I will take on this responsibility for you."

"As for pacifying the people, we will hold another group meeting to discuss a practical solution. Should we calculate work points based on work done, or compensate them for the food deficit? Although they have built greenhouses, they are also used to grow food, and what they grow will still count as theirs. We can also distribute them based on work points. What do you think?"

Everyone expressed their opinions at the meeting, and it was the most efficient meeting Liang Xinyue had ever attended.

For more than an hour, everyone spoke and made arrangements for some of the issues that came to mind.

The proposed group was formed immediately on the spot.

After everyone had discussed how to allocate the resources, Director Ye said:

"I have a way to do a basic promotion. Even if we grow greenhouses, we still need a certain production cycle before everyone can see the results. So, before that, we need to let everyone know that we should show the results of Xiao Liang's labor."

"But the place where Xiao Liang grows vegetables now belongs to the army. It is not open to the public and it is impossible for everyone to visit. So I thought of a way and mentioned it to Comrade Xiao Liang. I want Comrade Xiao Liang to take the vegetables they grow to the county town to sell."

"It's just that it's not interesting to set up a stall in the county town for this kind of dish that doesn't change with the season. So I thought, we can open a store in the name of our institute and the county agricultural bureau. I'll let Comrade Xiao Liang plan the details himself."

"Xiao Liang, tell me what you think."

Liang Xinyue smiled slightly. She didn't expect Director Ye to confirm the opening of a store for her in this way.

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"When Director Ye mentioned it to me, I just had an idea. As you all know, several canteens in the county have ordered our vegetables. From now on, we will put them in the store so that the people can also buy affordable vegetables."

"When the people eat it, it's the most real achievement. In the future, when the units in the county need vegetables, they can go to the vegetable store to place orders, and we will still deliver them to the departments. This will leave an impression on the people and let everyone know that all units are eating this dish."

Several people in the city laughed and said:

"Then when will you send some to the city for us? I envy you. In winter, we can only eat vegetables when we come to your place to do business and eat in the canteen. When we go back and tell others about it, no one will believe that there are green beans to eat at this time of year."

Everyone started laughing, Liang Xinyue said:

"It should be soon. As long as the production can keep up, it will be possible to deliver once a week. But now it can only be supplied to a few units in the county. Also, I have to anticipate that some units will place orders after they know about it."

"In addition, some people buy vegetables for themselves, and I have agreed with the troops to ensure that they have vegetables first. So, our task is still a bit heavy."

County Magistrate Gao Changming is the leader of this greenhouse project. He said with a smile:

"That's a good idea. It's feasible. So when will it open? Where will it open?"

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"I just mentioned it today. I can open it anytime, but I don't know where to open it. After all, I am not familiar with the county town."

Director Ren Xingren spoke:

"We already have two stores downstairs in the Agriculture Bureau, which are mainly used for publicity work. We can provide one store for you to use."

I don't know about other places, but Liang Xinyue from the Agricultural Bureau knows about it, and so do the two stores. It's quite good, right in the middle of the county town. And there's a small square in front, where people gather.

Liang Xinyue looked at Ren Xing and said:

"Okay, I'll go and see what shelves I need to prepare. I'll also go and get the business license and management fees paid. I'll also settle the rent for the store with the Agriculture Bureau when the time comes."

Ren Xing laughed and said:

“Hahaha, it’s all for the promotion of greenhouse cultivation, so there’s no rental fee.”

Liang Xinyue said seriously:

"That's what we need. Not only should we need it, but we should also sign a written contract, specifying the length of the lease and the amount of money. After all, although this store is responsible for promotion and publicity, it still has to run a business of operating and selling. Workers should be workers, and business should be business. If there are costs, they should be calculated as expenses. I can't take advantage of the country."

Liang Xinyue spoke seriously, and Ren Xing laughed:

"Comrade Xiao Liang is a good comrade. OK, then you can see what else needs to be prepared at the store. We can help at any time. After we disperse for a while, you can come with me to take a look."

Liang Xinyue nodded. Other county leaders also laughed and said:

"That's good. Our family members said they wanted to get some food for their children, but they could only go to the cafeteria to get food, and often there wasn't enough food. In the future, we can go to your store to buy food ourselves, that's good."

Director Ye smiled and said:

"Look, you guys are doing great. You're helping with publicity everywhere."
