Chapter 179: As long as it is burned, there is no problem selling it
There were three people in the group, chatting while riding.
Soon we arrived at Xu's restaurant in the countryside.
These days, eating and drinking in government agencies and institutions has become a popular trend, which has created a large number of private restaurants.
Even so, being able to open a two-story restaurant in the countryside and keep it running for several years still requires some skills and background.
When Secretary Qiao arrived, Xu Laoer, the owner of Xujia Restaurant, personally greeted him.
"Secretary Qiao, Accountant Li, welcome, warm welcome!"
Xu Laoer was wearing a dirty white apron, his fat hands were greasy, and his words were even more greasy.
From his exchanges with Party Secretary Qiao and Accountant Li, it can be seen that Xu Laoer is quite familiar with the people in the village.
After the greetings, Xu Laoer stretched out his hand to Wu Wei alone and said, "Is this the legendary Boss Wu?"
Wu Wei felt the greasiness on the other party's fat hands and said with a smile: "Boss Xu, nice to meet you."
"It's more than just a pleasure to meet you!" Xu Laoer immediately said: "When Boss Wu comes, it's like a brilliance!"
"I've heard of Boss Wu for a long time, but I didn't expect that when I met today, he would be so young and handsome. Do you have a partner?"
At this point, Secretary Qiao decisively interrupted: "Xu Laoer, this matter is not your daughter's turn!"
Xu Laoer was not annoyed at all, and even took the words without changing his expression: "Yes, I forgot that Secretary Qiao also has a precious daughter waiting to be taken care of."
Secretary Qiao was too lazy to talk to him and asked, "Is Mayor Yao here?"
"No," Xu Laoer led a few people inside. When they arrived at the stairs, they went straight up the stairs and said, "But the private room has been prepared for a long time. You guys can go in and sit down for a while."
While talking, Xu Laoer led the three people into the box, then turned and went downstairs to do some work.
Wu Wei gave Party Secretary Qiao and Accountant Li another cigarette.
I heard Party Secretary Qiao mention it: "No matter how fancy Mayor Yao says it, don't agree to it."
"The village couldn't even build a wheel kiln, but suddenly a 54-door wheel kiln came out, and they actually wanted to take advantage of the east wind."
Wu Wei scratched his head.
At the beginning, I really wanted to get it right in one step, preparing for the price breakthrough in 1988 and the shortage of materials.
It really ignores the local and all-round impact.
Fortunately, he pulled up the big tree of the Qiao family early in the morning and tied the three elders of the Qiao family tightly to his chariot.
Now facing the pressure from the countryside, he is not afraid at all.
However, when he said this in a hurry, Secretary Qiao couldn't help but asked, "Xiao Wu, I have almost arranged the manpower for the kiln for you. When the kiln is opened next year, a round of firing will be completed." Brick, production capacity will be ramped up soon.”
"On your side, besides using bricks for the project, are there any other sales channels?"
"Don't let all the red bricks that are fired lie in the factory and sleep. They will not produce any economic benefits and will be called a local joke later."
Regarding this, Wu Wei was not worried at all and said: "Don't worry, old party secretary, red bricks are hard currency. As long as they are burned, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them."
After hearing this, Secretary Qiao could only stop and say: "It's a good thing that you have confidence. Let's go back to the village and work together to find a solution. After all, you have solved so many idle labor in the village."
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside.
And it’s not just one or two people.
Upon seeing this, Secretary Qiao stood up quickly, opened the door to welcome him out, and saw three people filing up the stairs.
The leader was still the oily Xu Laoer, followed by the mayor Yao Aimin and the commune accountant Shi Jinsheng.
As soon as the two sides met, it was inevitable to exchange pleasantries.
In the end, Wu Wei was singled out and introduced and recommended.
Wu Wei always maintained a respectful look.
At least Yao Aimin subconsciously turned his attention to Secretary Qiao.
Soon, the food and wine were served.
Eight cold dishes, together with two bottles of Beilun local Daqu.
The accountants of both parties naturally took over the bottle and became the wine commander.
As soon as everyone's wine glasses were filled, the first hot dish, shredded eel fried with green onions, was served.
Yao Aimin picked up the wine cup and said, "Old Qiao, Xiao Wu, let's get started?"
Everyone raised their cups to drink together, and drank six cups together first.
Only then did the duel begin.
As a result, Yao Aimin drank eight cups with Secretary Qiao alone, but was unable to break open the gap between him and open up the situation.
He was already unhappy, so much so that when Accountant Li paid respect to him, he was a little absent-minded.
Wu Wei looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose. If he had wine, he would drink; if there was no wine, he would eat vegetables.
Try to keep your persona as small and transparent as possible.
It wasn't until Yao Aimin came towards him with a cup in hand that he stood up to fight.
"Xiao Wu, Boss Wu, at such a young age, he can open this 54-door kiln, which fills a big gap in our township. It's true that his ambition is not as good as his age."
Wu Wei lowered the rim of the wine cup, touched it lightly and said, "Hey, Mayor Yao, that's all superficial."
"Actually, I also believed other people's lies, saying that the bigger the brick kiln, the lower the cost of red bricks, and that's why I fell into this trap."
"You also know that if you want to build a project now, you will often not get the money, and you will just get the IOU instead of spending it as money."
"I really had no choice, so I focused on building materials. I thought I could increase revenue and reduce expenditure, so I could make some progress."
"But after listening to what the old party secretary said, I realized the seriousness of the problem."
Yao Aimin was confused and said: "What's the problem? Why is it serious?"
Wu Wei sighed and said, "If the extra red bricks fired in my kiln cannot be sold, the cost will not be reduced at all, so how can we talk about increasing revenue and reducing expenditure?"
Yao Aimin was not fooled, "I heard that you and Mr. Zhong in the county are close friends. When the time comes, ask him to come forward and say a word, and sell some red bricks. Isn't it a matter of hand?"
Wu Wei stroked his face in shame and said, "Don't mention it, Mayor Yao, a red brick is only one cent of profit, how can I ask Mr. Zhong for it?"
Yao Aimin was also asked, so he didn't even know what the wine tasted like.
Wu Wei drank it all in one gulp, and then continued, "When the time comes, I will have to trouble Mayor Yao to help shout in the whole township to help our brick kiln factory sell some goods, at least I can pay the workers a salary or something."
After exaggerating.
Yao Aimin suddenly felt that this brick kiln, no matter how big it was, was like a chicken rib.
He responded halfheartedly for a few times, and looked at the full table of dishes, and lost his appetite.
Secretary Qiao saw this and secretly praised Wu Wei's performance.
Refusing is not the smartest thing.
The smartest thing is to make the other party unable to even ask for something.
Good guy, this guy has this skill, it's really a waste of worrying about him.
So the following dinner was a bit of pretense.
After eating and drinking.
Yao Aimin even let Accountant Shi sign the IOU and then left.
Xu Laoer chased out the door with the IOU: "Village Chief Yao, didn't we agree to pay in cash today?"
Yao Aimin ignored him and got in the car and left.
Accountant Shi was left behind and said, "Old Xu, the village chief is not feeling well today, don't blame me for not reminding you."
