His predecessor failed

Two days later, the county leaders came. Su Zhuzhu and her friends did not expect things to go so smoothly.

The team leader reported this matter to the village and township leaders in advance, and they all thought it was a good idea. The county had come to inspect this time just to see if there were any new developments in the countryside.

As soon as the county leaders arrived, they put forward the Red Star Brigade matter as a key project. With the help of Su Zhuzhu's almost perfect plan, the whole plan instantly shined in front of the county leaders. They immediately called in the person in charge of this project in the Red Star Brigade to question him in detail.

Su Zhuzhu followed the captain into the meeting room and saw that it was an acquaintance.

There is only one leader in the county who is an acquaintance, and that’s Liu Dahai.

The two of them didn't say hello and just treated it as their first meeting.

After a brief introduction, several leaders in the county began to inquire about the plan. When they learned that the plan was written by a female comrade named Su Zhuzhu, they were shocked.

Liu Dahai was also impressed in his heart. This girl Su Zhuzhu was not only an excellent doctor, but also excellent in other aspects. They had never seen such a simple, clear and complete plan. It was much better than those complicated and lengthy meeting reports.

After Su Zhuzhu introduced the plan, Liu Daming listed the factory site, generator location, information and required materials that everyone had discussed for the leader to check. The expected output and subsequent development direction were all explained in Su Zhuzhu's plan.

Soon, several leaders gave positive responses to the plan for the medicinal materials processing plant, saying that this was a good thing and the county gave strong support.

The captain took the opportunity to ask the county to help solve several problems, the first of which was the generator, and then cement, electrical wires and other materials that were difficult for ordinary people to get.

Considering that there were some educated youth in the Red Star Brigade who were familiar with mechanics and electrical engineering, Liu Dahai approved it on the spot. It happened that the county machinery factory had two water conservancy generators. It might be difficult to say which one was the new one, but the old one would be no problem. The other things were also easy to deal with. He just wrote a note and asked the Red Star Brigade to go to the county and bring it back.

When the captain led the two people out of the meeting room, Su Zhuzhu couldn't help but grin. She thought to herself that this was really smooth sailing and good fortune!

The three of them rode their bicycles back to the Red Star Brigade in high spirits.

The captain excitedly ran straight to the big camphor tree and rang the assembly bell.

Everyone in the village rushed to the threshing ground to see what had happened and why the team leader was so anxious.

When all the men, women, old and young in the brigade had filled the threshing ground, the brigade leader stood on a large stone pier and started to shout at the top of his voice, telling everyone that the Red Star Brigade was going to set up a medicinal material processing plant. For a moment the threshing ground became noisy.

Some were excited and happy, while others were worried about being reported for speculation. Still others thought that there was no money to be made from picking a few herbs in the mountains and it was not worth the effort and fuss.

The captain rang the bell again, asking everyone to be quiet.

"I'm sure you all have a lot of questions, but I can tell you with certainty that the village, township, and even the county have all agreed to this plan and have allocated materials to us. We are confident that we can set up this processing plant and increase income for everyone!"

Next, Su Zhuzhu introduced the preliminary plan to everyone, starting with the most basic herb collection. Su Zhuzhu showed everyone a dozen common herbs that Xu Lai and his team had collected in this season. As long as everyone collected these herbs and prepared them according to the method taught by Su Zhuzhu, as long as they met the standards, the processing plant would purchase them. As for the price of each herb, the processing plant would post a notice and everyone could go and see it.

Similarly, Su Zhuzhu also told everyone that we will promote our medicinal materials not only in the township but also in the county hospital. If the demand increases, we will encourage everyone to grow herbs. If the development is good, it will not be a dream for us to produce our own medicines in the future.

The villagers still had some vague understanding of what was said, and some people directly asked about the specific purchase prices of several kinds of herbs. Su Zhuzhu told everyone one by one, and some people were instantly tempted. There was not much work to do now, and it was not difficult to go up the mountain to collect herbs. One pound could be sold for fifty or sixty cents, and if they collected more, they could have a good New Year this year.

Some people with more flexible minds asked again, when the medicinal materials processing factory was built, would they need to recruit workers and whether they could sign up.

The team leader rushed to answer this question. We will definitely need to recruit people to set up the processing plant, but the number of places is limited for now, and they also need to have a certain level of education. But I assure you that as long as the output of the processing plant increases, we will expand recruitment and will definitely give priority to our team. So we must first work together to set up the herb processing plant. Do you have confidence?

There was a deafening “yes” from below, followed by warm applause.

The team leader solemnly told everyone that the idea of ​​building a medicinal material processing plant was proposed by the educated youth in the team, and focused on introducing the main players such as Su Zhuzhu, Liu Daming and Zheng Qiwen. He also wanted the villagers to remember the kindness of the educated youth, so that no one would talk behind their backs when they went to work in the processing plant.

After deciding on this important matter, the team leader hurriedly arranged the tasks. He asked his nephew Peng Aiguo and Liu Daming to take two more people to the county to pull the generator tomorrow. Su Zhuzhu, Duan Xiaoling and others taught the villagers to identify herbs and how to prepare them. He also called Zheng Qiwen and several strong laborers in the village to dig the foundation, build a factory building, and arrange the lines in the open space next to the team headquarters. After the generator comes back, they will go to the back mountain to build a generator room.

The captain waved his hand and gave full work points to everyone, and everyone started to work happily!
