His predecessor failed

Su Zhuzhu first listed the common disease categories, such as wind-cold medicine, wind-heat medicine, heat-clearing and detoxifying medicine, anti-rheumatic medicine, diuretic and dampness-injecting medicine, qi-regulating and digestion-promoting medicine, anthelmintic medicine, hemostatic medicine, etc., and then based on the medicinal materials required for each medicine, she comprehensively considered which medicinal materials were suitable for planting in the Red Star Brigade and which ones could be harvested directly in the wild.

There are more than a dozen kinds of medicinal herbs that are suitable for large-scale planting and have high demand, and Su Zhuzhu has made plans for them one by one.

For the medicinal herbs that need to be collected in the back mountain, Su Zhuzhu plans to have Wang Xiaojun draw them for the team members to learn after collecting the specimens, and also mark the medicinal value to increase everyone's enthusiasm for collecting herbs.

When everything was ready and the Lantern Festival had passed, Su Zhuzhu and Wang Xiaojun took the results of their work to see the team leader.

Not long after, the brigade notified that a study meeting would be held, and specifically mentioned that it was a study meeting about the medicinal materials processing plant.

This kind of study meeting was originally the most troublesome for the team members. They couldn't understand what was being said, and they were not allowed to bring melon seeds, peanuts, needles and thread, etc. with them, otherwise their hands and mouths would be busy. They didn't expect that this notice was about a study meeting related to the medicinal material processing plant, and there was no need to do ideological work. Before the time came, the venue was filled with small stools, and everyone was afraid of falling behind.

Su Zhuzhu first introduced to everyone which medicinal herbs were most in demand at the health center, which ones could be picked directly from the back mountain, which ones could be artificially cultivated, and which ones could all be sold.

Su Zhuzhu introduced to the team members more than a dozen kinds of plants that have relatively high medicinal value and are not difficult to grow, which made the team members very excited.

It turns out that the grasses that can be found everywhere in the fields, vegetable gardens, and wild are all medicinal herbs and can be sold for money, such as honeysuckle, purslane, houttuynia cordata, mulberry leaves, chrysanthemum, lobelia, etc. Normally, pigs are not even willing to eat them, which is such a waste of resources!

Wang Xiaojun took out the illustrated book of medicinal herbs and let everyone take turns to study it. He also specially invited Dr. Peng to explain the simple methods of preparing medicines to everyone.

Finally, the team leader made a summary. The Red Star Team will start planting medicinal herbs next year, because the herbs picked from the back mountain alone cannot supply the hospital. Now they only supply the township health center, and the county hospital is waiting! As for the types of plants, they also decided after referring to the opinions of Dr. Peng and Su Zhuzhu. First, they will pilot a batch of herbs with high demand, high medicinal value, and easy to plant, and then expand the planting range after they mature.

After the study meeting, in addition to working at the health center, Su Zhuzhu's most important job was to guide the villagers in harvesting and preparing medicinal materials, and she did not participate in the management of the processing plant.

That's right, the medicinal materials processing factory was officially established and the team leader was naturally appointed as the factory director. Originally, the team leader was reluctant, thinking that he had a low level of education and was afraid that he could not take on the responsibility. However, the medicinal materials processing factory had just been established and it was at this time that the team leader's prestige was needed. So with everyone's unanimous recommendation, the team leader proudly became the director of the medicinal materials processing factory, mainly responsible for reporting to superiors and medicinal materials planting. Zheng Qiwen and Liu Daming were deputy factory directors. Zheng Qiwen was mainly responsible for the maintenance of equipment and machines in the factory, and Liu Daming was responsible for the delivery of medicinal materials.

There are further subdivisions. Wang Xiaojun is in charge of the publicity work of the medicinal materials processing plant, Peng Aiguo follows Liu Daming and is responsible for driving a tractor to transport medicinal materials, Liu Yuanyuan and Duan Xiaoling are responsible for collecting medicinal materials, and the brigade accountant also undertakes the work of accounting in the processing plant. Of course, he will work with Liu Yuanyuan and Duan Xiaoling to supervise each other. Su Zhuzhu reluctantly took on a technical guidance position, and several other educated youth were also arranged to assist the main staff. Although the salary is a bit low, they also get extra work points, which is also very attractive.

The entire medicinal material processing factory has a complete team, and everyone is ready to work hard.

After the chilly wind has passed, the willow branches by the lake are ready to sprout, and another spring is about to arrive.

The team leader has been very busy lately, trying to get the medicinal herb planting arrangements in place before the spring plowing to avoid being overwhelmed by the rush.

First, the team members were organized to reclaim the wasteland and prepare the land. This was the top priority. Now the team members have decided which herbs to plant first. The seeds and seedlings are ready. The seeds were obtained by the county leaders through connections.

This busy schedule lasted until the end of February, and it was the moment the team members had been looking forward to for a long time. Why? The team leader said last time that the collected herbs should be handed over to the processing plant and the settlement would be made every three months. Now was the first settlement.

Early in the morning, the entrance of the medicinal materials processing factory was crowded with people. Almost the entire team was there. Everyone was excitedly discussing how many kilograms they had collected and how much money they would get. Although they did not get the money before the New Year, as long as they had the money, who cared?

The leadership team of the medicinal materials processing factory also attaches great importance to the first profit settlement, which brings tangible benefits to the team members and is related to the enthusiasm of the masses and the future of the medicinal materials processing factory.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the gate of the medicinal materials processing factory opened on time. Liu Daming and Wang Jiaguo came out first and organized everyone to line up and go in and settle the bill one by one.

The team members walked into the spacious yard of the medicinal materials processing factory one by one. They saw a table at the door of the office. The team accountant and Liu Yuanyuan were sitting behind the table. There were also an abacus and registration books on the table. The team leader and others were standing behind and watching.

Seeing that everyone walked in in an orderly manner, the captain said a few words and waved his hand, "Get your money!"

Everyone cheered, and every smiling face was filled with hope and vitality.

Liu Yuanyuan is responsible for roll call and checking bills. After confirming with the team members that they are correct, she goes to the brigade accounting office to collect the money and sign.

"First, Comrade Peng Guoqiang, come over and check whether the amount is correct. The total for three months is thirty-eight yuan."

The first one in line was a dark-skinned man who looked strong and had an honest face. However, he collected a lot of medicinal herbs, so thirty-eight yuan was already quite a lot, and this was after deducting the part for the medicinal herb processing factory.

"Hey, that's right, thank you Liu Zhiqing!"

After verifying that everything was correct, the honest man went to the accountant to collect the money, and those who could not write put their fingerprints on it.

After getting the money, the big man was almost crying with excitement. Thirty-eight yuan, it would take him several years to save this much money by farming. Now he can earn this much money just by picking medicinal herbs for a winter. He can finally buy some delicious food for his mother at home and make two new sets of clothes.

The honest man kept bowing to express his gratitude to the team leader and the workers in the processing plant.

The captain patted him on the shoulder and told him to go back early and work hard to earn money, and his life would get better and better.
