Chapter 156 Don't let Qiao Ge go astray

The food factory was bustling with activity as they wove melon seed baskets. Not only Director Hu came to help, but Huang Juan and Sister Qiao also came to help with the materials whenever they had time.

Lu Qiaoge contacted Captain Lin of Guzitun and asked the commune members to use their spare time to cut one of the raw materials for weaving melon seed baskets, a kind of wild grass called Jinjin grass.

Lu Qiaoge told Lao Lin how to handle the situation and also set a price for exchanging supplies.

The villagers were overjoyed that these once-neglected herbs could now be exchanged for everyday items.

I promised to complete it according to the standards and ensure there wasn't a single weed.

Life in Guzitun is now more than five times better than it was last year.

Vegetables in the garden can be exchanged for money, priced according to the type of vegetable. Every household's vegetable garden is no longer a simple vegetable garden, but a golden goose that lays eggs.

In the past, no household had much money, but now every household has a few dozen yuan in their hands, which was something we never dared to dream of before.

The tasks given by Lu Qiaoge were to be completed with absolute quality and quantity.

So there's no need to worry about raw materials; they'll be delivered continuously.

The factory management also learned about this matter. While some praised Lu Qiaoge for completing the signing independently, others naturally objected.

Those who oppose the agreement mainly argue that Lu Qiaoge did not obtain approval from her superiors when she signed it.

This matter was discussed at a factory meeting.

They summoned the directors of both subdistrict offices.

Another subdistrict office is called Qianjin Subdistrict Office. The director's surname is Han. Although he was a bit of a spectator, he was genuinely envious.

With such capable soldiers under his command, it would be difficult not to achieve results.

Who knows, Lao Hu, this old prodigy, might even get promoted a level.

Old Hu said matter-of-factly, "Lu Qiaoge had reported to me in advance, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. This is a small factory under the street office, directly managed by the street office. Even if there are any instructions, they have to go through me first. When did a small street workshop report everything to the factory director?"

Some people said, "This is a contract with a Hong Kong businessman, is it a small matter? Shouldn't we have called the factory manager in advance to report it?"

Old Hu: "They are Hong Kong businessmen, that's true, but they came with an inspection team. They are special guests who have been approved by higher authorities to have friendly exchanges with local enterprises. Of course, I was negligent in this matter. I should have come to find Director Hao immediately after Lu Qiaoge finished reporting to me."

"Hmm, no, that's not right either. The General Affairs Office is in charge of me. I have to report to the General Affairs Office first, and then the director of the General Affairs Office needs to consult with the leadership. That's the procedure, right? But we have a saying, 'Speed ​​is of the essence in war.' Zhen Xi is leaving tomorrow. After all these layers of approval, will we even be able to see her?"

The other person glared at Lao Hu: "What are you saying?"

That's just ridiculous!

The other party added, "If that's the case, the leader will approve it quickly, and it certainly won't be delayed."

Besides, wouldn't it be better to consult with your superiors? If problems arise, your superiors will handle them. If there really is a problem, you won't have to take responsibility. You really don't know what's good for you and what's bad for you. No wonder you've been stuck in the subdistrict office and can't get ahead.

Director Hao said, "Your ideas are all correct, Lao Hu. You should humbly accept criticism. This will also benefit Comrade Lu's growth."

Old Hu immediately said, "Okay, I understand. In the future, if there are similar matters, I will definitely consult with the leaders first." Seeing that Old Hu had indeed sincerely accepted the criticism, Director Hao then praised Xiangyang Subdistrict Office, especially Comrade Lu Qiaoge for solving the employment problem of unemployed youth and making efforts to contribute to the country's foreign exchange earnings.

Factory Director Hao was also very pleased. This morning, Director Zhou from the Foreign Trade Department called him, wanting to borrow Qiao Ge to the Foreign Trade Department, but he refused. "This is a cadre of our military factory. I'm too busy with my own affairs. How can I have time to help you?"
Besides, he really wanted to see if Lu Qiaoge could turn a small workshop into a real food factory.

Given its massive size, 516 is perfectly capable of being self-sufficient.

But this is extremely difficult.

After the meeting, he kept Lao Hu behind and asked about Lu Qiaoge's situation.

This girl is very methodical. When she went to sign the contract, she brought everyone she was supposed to. The only problem was that she didn't ask the factory management for permission, but that's not Qiao Ge's fault. It's just that Lao Hu likes to act first and ask questions later.

He understood what Lu Qiaoge was thinking. He was worried that if the report was submitted, the factory would send someone to take Lu Qiaoge's place.
He's not that naive. Besides, don't underestimate Lu Qiaoge just because she's young. Try it if anyone dares to take advantage of her.
The girl who can date Qin Heng is no ordinary person!

This time, Director Hao seriously told Lao Hu: "We plan to cultivate Lu Qiaoge. As her direct supervisor, you must keep a close eye on her. So you must start with yourself and not let Qiaoge go astray. If you ruin a good seedling, I won't let you off the hook!"

Old Hu stared wide-eyed: "How could she possibly have gone astray?"

Factory Director Hao pondered for a moment: "Didn't you notice how clever she is? Generally speaking, clever people like to take shortcuts, like to use others' strength against them, and they also like to use schemes against each other, like the mantis stalking the cicada unaware of the oriole behind..."

Old Hu rolled his eyes: "You're exaggerating. It's like you're telling a story. She's just a young woman who just started working. It's not as complicated as you're making it out to be. Do you think this is a war, with the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?"

But despite saying that, Lao Hu really took it to heart.

After returning from the factory headquarters, I went to the food factory.

Lu Qiaoge was unaware that Lao Hu had been summoned by the factory director. When she saw Lao Hu arrive on his bicycle, she led him to see the handicraft and food processing groups. Everyone was busy at work. Lao Hu even saw his son doing accounts. In just a few days, the abacus beads were already clicking away.

Although Lao Hu had no expression on his face, he was very pleased inside.

In any case, learning to use an abacus is a remarkable skill.

Lu Qiaoge took out a notebook, which turned out to be an opinion collection book.

The above are customer comments. Although they are all written in pencil, every suggestion is very pertinent.

However, the most praise was given.

Most people say it tastes great and hope that more will be produced.

"Director Hu, the first batch of raw materials is almost gone. Do you know how we can apply for another batch? This time we have money and grain coupons, so we can buy them directly without credit."

Old Hu waved his hand: "Keep the money and grain coupons for now. We didn't get a single penny from the government to build the factory. You need to keep some in reserve. Besides, the grain bureau settles accounts every quarter."

After thinking for a moment, Lao Hu said, "I'll go to the grain bureau now to apply for another batch, but grain and oil are in short supply right now, so you should be prepared for production to stop."

Lu Qiaoge nodded: "I know it will be difficult from top to bottom, and I am mentally prepared for that."

That was indeed the case at the time. It wasn't that the grain bureau was benefiting from controlling the supply of grain and oil; after all, many places hadn't even solved the problem of basic food and clothing.
