Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 389: An Order Worth Over 20 Million US Dollars
Tang Quantong’s face felt disgraced, "They’re indeed from the food factory. I will definitely organize people for ideological education immediately. What they said is indeed wrong, and their thoughts are problematic.
However..."
He looked at Xu Qinghuan and said, "From a fair perspective, I think it’s quite understandable."
Xu Qinghuan took the chopsticks rinsed by Jiang Xingye for her and smiled, "Fair? What’s unfair? Is it me being unfair or is it the county unfair?"
In any case, it’s not the commune that’s unfair.
She understood Tang Quantong’s meaning. At the time when the Shangjiang Team was developing these industries, Tang Quantong was the deputy director of the commune.
Tang Quantong also understood Xu Qinghuan’s meaning but still said stiffly, "Shangjiang Team has been ahead of the commune and even other teams in the entire Anguang County this year, leaving all other teams far behind;
Of course, this is the result of your and Baohua’s tireless efforts, but the problem isn’t scarcity, it’s inequality. You still need to support other brothers so that everyone can get rich together. If others see you eating meat while they can’t even have soup, it will certainly cause criticism."
Xu Qinghuan’s face darkened, "Didn’t we think about waiting for other teams?"
Before she finished speaking, the door was knocked on. Zhang Changqing said "Come in," and Jiang Baohua and his son entered, sensing the unpleasant atmosphere, they took seats in the empty spots.
Xu Qinghuan raised her chin slightly, "Just in time, Director Jiang is here too. Back when Director Tang, you were Deputy Director, Director Jiang was still the team secretary. The first design our team created was for a harvester, given to the commune;
The second factory we ran was a furniture factory, thanks to Ah Ye alone, and the third factory was a threshing machine. The design we gave away was the first opportunity for wealth."
Tang Quantong’s complexion became as complex as a stormy sky, clouds rolling, colors mixing, the twitching veins resembling lightning wrapped in clouds.
Xu Qinghuan’s tone softened slightly, "Although I’m a young intellectual from Shangjiang Team, and Ah Ye is also from Shangjiang Team, we’ve never intended to prosper alone. Shangjiang Team’s success today is due to Uncle Jiang’s trust in us, the members’ trust in us, everyone working together in unity."
Xu Qinghuan pointed to the people outside, "Just now, Director Tang, you all heard those words, the food factory is where it is today, I don’t dare to claim credit, but can you say I haven’t put in any effort?"
Back then, I told you to prioritize hiring people from Shangjiang Team, but do you dare to take out the roster and count if Shangjiang Team’s people have the advantage?"
Tang Quantong sheepishly replied, "Shangjiang Team already has so many resources, several factories, still growing, I always have to consider other production teams."
Xu Qinghuan chuckled, not saying anything more.
Zhang Changqing understood, listened until now, and had a further understanding of Tang Quantong’s capabilities.
No point in dragging this further.
He asked about the "Southern Trade Conference" this time, "You received nearly over twenty million orders, what’s the plan?"
Converted to RMB, it’s more than one billion.
But at the moment, aside from Xu Qinghuan and Jiang Xingye, no one knew that the currency for the over twenty million was US Dollar. When Zhang Changqing received congratulations and recognition, he only heard that it was over twenty million, and was already overjoyed.
"Road repair, factory construction, equipment outfitting." Jiang Xingye said briefly.
"Over twenty million, all for Shangjiang Team?" Tang Quantong was extremely shocked.
Xu Qinghuan and Jiang Xingye didn’t answer his question, and Tang Quantong felt a bit embarrassed.
But, Jiang Xingye and Xu Qinghuan were indeed letting Shangjiang Team eat alone, which wasn’t just his opinion.
"Repair the road, what road do you plan on repairing? Connect the road between Shangjiang Team and the commune?" Zhang Changqing somewhat disagreed, "Isn’t this spending too much?"
Jiang Xingye said, "Not much, it’s enough."
Jiang Xingbing, on the side, only felt terrified, "Over twenty million, indeed it’s not little."
Jiang Xingye said, "Over twenty million USD, it’s a lot, so repairing this road is enough."
"USD? You’re talking about USD?" Although Tang Quantong knew he wasn’t popular, he still shouted in shock, "You received so many foreign exchange orders?"
Jiang Xingye then glanced at him, "What’s so much about that?"
They printed a lot of brochures for this, sent out many, hidden orders inside, with phone numbers, he believed more orders would come in later.
What he didn’t know was that because of these over twenty million USD orders, right after Chen Dewen and others entered, TV stations wanted to come over for interviews, on-site filming, causing entire Shangjiang Team to boil over.
In these days, appearing on a TV station, what an honor that is!
Families, like celebrating New Year, started cleaning up, drying clothes, afraid they’d tarnish the team’s reputation and affect the honor.
Tang Quantong was left speechless by Jiang Xingye’s words, regretting slightly, if he had known, he should have joined Shangjiang Team’s exhibition to sell their pastries and biscuits.
Zhang Changqing also had nothing to say, a billion plus order indeed enough for Shangjiang Team to repair many roads, at this point, he didn’t know how terrifying the profit from the over twenty million USD order was.
"Repairing roads is troublesome too, have you considered building factories in the county? It would make procurement and sales much more convenient." Zhang Changqing said.
Jiang Xingye resolutely refused, "Factories belong to the production team, we have no decision-making power. Also, our initial intention for establishing factories was to lead members to prosperity, once the road is repaired, nothing will be inconvenient."
If factories moved to the county, would he have any voice in the future?
The meal ended in unhappiness.
Payment was done by Jiang Xingye, naturally, using Xu Qinghuan’s money.
His monthly salary handed over as soon as taken, now even going to the county required asking Xu Qinghuan for money. Every time Xu Qinghuan gave more, he refused, he really liked the feeling of asking Xu Qinghuan for money.
It’s like being under Xu Qinghuan’s control, he is also Xu Qinghuan’s responsibility.
The over twenty million USD order, like a whirlwind, swept through the entire Anguang County.
Those hoping to see Shangjiang Team’s joke were slapped in the face.
The food factory’s orders shrunk, warm weather, coupled with long market presence, the sales of snowcakes and small buns naturally weren’t as good as before.
The food factory had master chefs, but compared to Yan City, Shen City’s chefs, they were limited, only knowing how to make some traditional snacks.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, the food factory revived by selling snacks but sales dropped again, Tang Quantong sent a plea to the county’s food factory, but if they gave their recipe, it would be tantamount to suicide.
Moreover, although Tang Quantong and the county’s food factory were subordinate, there’s no management personnel from there, he personally was unfamiliar with them, they had no obligation or duty to help him.
