Chapter 166: Temporary Supply
After solving the village tyrant Yu Sangun, Li Yi not only established his authority, but also gained the support of all the villagers in Yujia Village, and the cooperation was basically concluded. read
The next thing to do is to return to Jiangcheng, buy piglets, feed and other things, and start the formal cooperation between the two parties.
Early the next morning, after having breakfast, Li Yi and Da Chu said goodbye to the village chief's solicitation and returned to Jiangcheng.
For Li Yi, overall, this trip to Yujiacun was very rewarding.
Firstly, it solves the problem of meat sources, and secondly, it can help these villagers, killing two birds with one stone.
Just after leaving Yujiacun, Dachu asked while driving: "Brother Yi, has the pig seedlings been settled? There are really not many places to cultivate pig seedlings in Jiangcheng!"
Li Yi had already done his homework before coming out. When he heard Da Chu's question, he smiled and said: "In the suburbs of Jiangcheng, there is a farmer's market. Where can I buy and sell piglets?"
"Oh, and this place?"
"Well, I went to see it before and the piglets are of good quality!"
"Brother Yi, do you still understand this?"
"Of course, there is also knowledge in selecting piglets. If you grab the piglets' hind legs, they won't scream, but they will be very strong when they break free. Such piglets are very suitable for the new environment!"
Dachu was a little surprised when he heard this.
Obviously, he didn't expect that he was just a pig, but he had such a skill!
"Brother Yi, there's more, can you tell me more?"
Li Yi smiled, shrugged, and replied: "If you are interested, you can go to the scene when I select pig seedlings. It just so happens that you will be responsible for selecting pig seedlings for Yujiacun from now on. I There are other things to do.”
"That's good!"
At this time, the car happened to drive onto the provincial highway, and Da Chu immediately said: "Brother Yi, even if we select pig seedlings for these villagers as soon as possible, it will take a long time before the pig seedlings mature, right? During this period, What to do with the meat factory?”
Of course, Li Yi also expected this problem and said with a smile: "Do you still remember the farm we opened in the suburbs when the business of our Jiangcheng Meat Factory was at its peak?"
Da Chu nodded. The breeding farm on the outskirts of Jiangcheng City was once considered the largest breeding base in the entire surrounding area of Jiangcheng City.
And there are many advanced facilities that can ensure a continuous supply of meat. It is even considered a large-scale breeding farm in the entire Jiangnan Province.
But before problems arose in the meat processing plant, problems arose in this farm first.
The reason was that the owner of the farm died suddenly, which caused problems in the operation of the entire farm, and then it had to close down.
What is regrettable is that the entire farm was operating in perfect order when the boss was still alive.
But after the boss passed away, the businessman who cooperated with the boss took all the money and ran away. The workers had no wages. Naturally, the farm was abandoned.
This farm still exists, but all the pigs in the farm have been divided up by the workers, but they are still kept in the farm, because after all, it is near Jiangcheng, and there is no other place to raise pigs.
According to Li Yi's estimate, there are at least nearly two hundred pigs in this abandoned farm.
And judging by the time, these pigs are commercial pigs that are more than five months old.
There's just one small problem, that is...these pigs now belong to the workers. If you want to buy pigs, you have to talk to these workers!
Li Yi sighed. It seems that although the problem of future meat sources has been solved, the current meat sources are a new problem!
………Dividing line………
At noon, Li Yi and Da Chu had returned to Jiangcheng and arrived at the suburbs of Jiangcheng.
According to the news from Dengzhou City, the first batch of equipment will arrive the day after tomorrow.
Because Li Yi has a lot of orders, some machines are still in rush production, but the first batch of existing equipment is already on its way to Jiangcheng.
Before the first batch of equipment arrives, it's best to get the meat source sorted out.
In this way, employees who were originally from the meat processing factory can practice their skills and become familiar with the work process.
Times have changed, so if the meat factory does not want to be eliminated, it can only progress with the times.
The car stopped in front of a restaurant in the suburbs, which was not far from the original breeding farm. Li Yi had some impressions.
So he asked Dachu to park the car here, and after taking a bite at this restaurant, he went directly to talk to the workers at the farm.
It would be great if these workers gathered together. Li Yi only needed to explain that he wanted to purchase commercial pigs at a high price, and the problem would be solved naturally.
But the problem is that some of these workers have returned to their hometowns. If we search for them one by one, how long will it take to find them?
Li Yi opened the curtain of the restaurant and looked around.
The restaurants in the suburbs of Jiangcheng are indeed much better in terms of conditions than the noodle shop in Mushan Town.
This restaurant has two floors. The second floor is mostly used for living, and there are more than a dozen tables on the first floor. The tables and stools are all made of wood and look to be old.
However, compared to the noodle restaurants in Mushan Town, this restaurant is indeed in good condition. It even has a TV, a refrigerator and an electric fan. At least it looks like it was in the 1990s.
As soon as Li Yi walked into the restaurant, a woman who looked to be in her thirties came out and handed a menu to Li Yi with a smile.
"What can we eat? There are no dumplings, steamed buns, or steamed buns now. As for the staple food, there is only rice!"
Li Yi smiled and said: "Rice is fine. Are there any special dishes?"
The woman smiled and replied: "There are stir-fried shredded pork and haggis, both of which are pretty good. The other one is sweet and sour pork."
Li Yi smiled and replied: "Just these three dishes, one of each."
Then, after briefly scanning the menu, Li Yi handed the menu to the woman.
Da Chu looked around the store. He could eat anything, but he was not picky about food.
At this time, Li Yi looked at the woman's back and asked curiously: "Sister, do you know what is going on in the breeding farms nearby?"
After hearing Li Yi's words, the woman paused, then handed the menu in her hand to the cook behind her, and then turned around.
He walked to Li Yi and others and said, "I understand a little bit. What do you want to know?"
"I would like to ask why this farm suddenly closed down?" Li Yi said.
"Hey, my husband used to be a worker in a breeding farm. I really know why you do this!"
Then the eldest sister continued: "The farm itself was operating very well and the profits were considerable, but suddenly the factory director disappeared for a period of time and wages were not available for a period of time. The workers were naturally very anxious and immediately went to ask the boss. I learned that the boss was seriously ill and was being treated in the hospital. However, before the workers could discuss what to do, the boss suddenly passed away!”
"The sudden death of the boss was the straw that broke the camel's back. The remaining partner took away all the remaining money from the farm, and the entire farm was paralyzed!"
"Then there's no investigation from above?"
"Why didn't I investigate? I just didn't know what happened and didn't report it to the public!"
Li Yi sighed when he heard this. This matter is similar to what he knows!
There is no way. In this era, if you hide your money, the chance of being found is basically very small. It is just a hardship for those workers.
