Chapter 68 What a coincidence!(1/2)

Bishui County Flax Factory is located outside the west gate of the county seat, a few kilometers away from the county seat.

As for the reason, the main reason is that the smell is too bad when retting.

Flax has been cultivated here for many years. Because the land is fertile and the temperature is suitable, flax can grow almost one meter high.

When flax blooms, every piece is covered with small blue flowers. When the summer wind blows, they look like a blue ocean, more beautiful than wheat waves.

After entering the courtyard of the flax factory, Liu Qingshan jumped off his bicycle. Riding a bicycle was not as comfortable as riding a bicycle.

Looking around, there are stacks of flax in the yard. The big stacks are tens of meters long and more than ten meters high. They look very spectacular.

There was just a strange smell floating in the air, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

"Uncle Guo, I also took this scene with a camera and posted it in the brochure."

Liu Qingshan was so shocked that he walked over to the flax stack without realizing it. The golden flax was all soft gold grown from the black soil.

In the international market, linen is quite popular, especially people in Europe, who like to use linen products because it is a high-quality natural plant fiber.

In the past, linen was exclusively used by the royal families of European countries and had a very noble status.

The principle is similar to that in China. Ordinary people there also want to get a "yellow mantle" to wear.

On the contrary, it is the popular ones in China, such as Zhenliang, which are somewhat looked down upon by people over there.

It is estimated that the linen produced by the linen factory did not sell well last time, and it must be because of insufficient publicity. Therefore, the main policy formulated by Liu Qingshan for Director Guo is to work hard on publicity.

Including the production of promotional brochures, various photos of flax growth, production and processing processes, and samples of linen cloth, etc.

After explaining this, Liu Qingshan felt that it was still not safe, so he murmured to Director Guo for a while.

Lao Guo was so shocked that he said, "Comrade Xiao Liu, these ideas of yours are really..."

He didn't even know how to describe it, but if he did it, it would definitely attract attention.

The consequences of doing this may be serious. Does the country allow this?

If a diplomatic dispute arises by then, then his job as a small factory director will be over.

After weighing the balance, Director Guo gritted his teeth and put his hands on his hair: "For the sake of the factory, for the county, and for export to earn foreign exchange, let's fight for it!"

Now that I had made a decision, I took the time to make a brochure and went to the county theater troupe to hire people. As expected, the county did not approve it.

There is a strict quota limit for participating in the Canton Fair, so you can’t just squeeze in people just because you want.

Factory Director Guo discussed it with Liu Qingshan again and decided to go to Yangcheng and find someone there, at least dozens of dollars more.

That was all that could be done, Liu Qingshan was not idle, and asked Lao Guo to hire a few tailors. He was responsible for drawings, and the tailors were responsible for sewing. They were busy for several days.

There were still a few products from several factories left, and Liu Qingshan was invited to look around them all, but most of them had no special features.

Even so, Liu Qingshan still asked everyone to make a brochure. Whether it works or not, we should publicize it first.

There were still a few days left to attend the Canton Fair. Liu Qingshan had nothing to do for the time being, so he decided to go home.

After being out for several days, he felt a little homesick. In this life, he especially cherished the days spent with his family.



In early October, just after the National Day, a delegation of four from Bishui County attending the Canton Fair came to Chuncheng, met up with the larger group, and then boarded the train heading south together.

Bang-dang... Bang-dang... Bang-dang-dang...

The green leather car drove across the vast land, slowly and slowly, just like the rhythm of this era.

For this kind of speed, Liu Qingshan was really not used to it at first. It felt too slow.

The carriage is not crowded yet, at least there are seats. The further south you go, the more passengers you will get.

There is no good smell when there are too many people. The smell of sweat, cigarettes, feet, and various food smells mix together to form the unique smell of a green leather car.

Fortunately, the train windows at this time can be pushed and opened, so you can ventilate at any time.

If you catch a crowded train, some passengers will just open the window and get in.

Liu Qingshan's car was basically composed of delegations from various cities and counties. They were all wearing fat suits. Most of them were familiar with each other, so they inevitably got together to chat and so on.

There are no white people who can join the delegation. People like Liu Qingshan are very special.

He is also the youngest. Looking around, everyone is filled with middle-aged uncles. Occasionally, there are a few pretty lesbians mixed in among them. They are all in their twenties.

Liu Qingshan simply opened the textbook, turned his attention to what was going on outside the window, and concentrated on studying his homework.

I had to sit on the train for several days, and I was a bit bored, so I just read a book to kill time.

"Xiao Liu, dinner is ready!"

Zheng Hongqi's greeting came. Liu Qingshan put down his textbook, rubbed his eyes, and was about to stand up and go to the restaurant, but saw Zheng Hongqi, County Magistrate Wang and others already starting to take things out of their travel bags.

Big steamed buns, pickles, and even Director Zhou from the Commerce Bureau even brought dried tofu rolled with green onions.

In addition, there are a few red sausages, which is considered a relatively high-end food.

Liu Qingshan blinked, suddenly missing the bucket noodles.

It seems that this aspect has not yet emerged in China. The manufacturing process of this thing is not complicated. They are already rich in wheat here. Perhaps, they can consider starting this industry early.

After all, it would take nearly ten years for a certain master to develop the first pack of instant noodles.

Director Zhou even took out a bottle of wine: "Come on, on the hour, I'll drink it in time to go to bed."

After biting open the cap of the bottle, he immediately attracted several people with similar ideas, including County Magistrate Z of L County and others.

Liu Qingshan didn't drink anyway, so he simply stood up and gave up his seat, took two steamed buns and a piece of red sausage, and went to County Magistrate Z's original seat, which was separated by a wall.

"Old Wang, your travel bag is full of stuff. If you have any good food, take it out."

County Magistrate Z is still familiar with him, and he likes to joke around, so he doesn't show up at all.

County Magistrate Wang and the others had just taken out their things, but before the zipper of their travel bag was zipped up, Magistrate Z immediately took action.

However, what he brought out was not food and drink, but a stack of colorful picture albums. He flipped through them curiously, and his eyes immediately widened:

"Hey, Lao Wang, it turns out you have a secret weapon!"

The travel bag is filled with brochures. As for the samples for the exhibition, they have been shipped to Spring City in advance and then uniformly distributed there.

Others around were looking through it curiously, praising and discussing:

"You have talented people in Bishui County. Who came up with this idea?"

"Old Wang, you are not very interesting. Why are you hiding such a good thing? Take it out as soon as possible. Everyone should prepare it accordingly."

"Last year you guys in Bishui County shaved their heads, you might have to turn around this year."

These people also have some experience in participating in exhibitions. Looking at such a beautiful brochure, even they are a little tempted by the products on it, not to mention those foreign merchants.

Envy is envy, they are all on the bus, they will definitely not have time to make a brochure, they will have to wait until next year.

County Magistrate Wang, who was leading the team, had a red face and felt bright. He turned to look at Liu Qingshan and was about to push Liu Qingshan to the front desk.

He caught a glimpse of Comrade Xiao Liu waving his hand towards him covertly, so he didn't mention it and continued drinking and chatting with his colleagues.

After Liu Qingshan had eaten enough, he walked around in the carriage a few times. It was getting dark, so he leaned on the seat and fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes the next morning, I realized that the train had just passed through Beijing. There were obviously more people in the carriage, and there were even people carrying poles with luggage and other items hanging on them.

These should be the first batch of migrant workers to go out to work, right?

Liu Qingshan even saw a middle-aged man carrying a burden with a dog's head sticking out of the burden.

It must have been a half-grown native dog. He stuck out his tongue and hissed a few times before the man covered the dog's head again. He didn't know how he was brought onto the train.

Liu Qingshan went to the toilet to sort things out and wash up briefly. When he came back, he went to see County Magistrate Z of L County, who was talking excitedly to Magistrate Wang and others.

He also held a few pages of paper in his hand, with bright red text printed on the top, which should be the so-called "red-headed documents."

"Haha, now it's better, you don't have to worry about shaving your head anymore!"

Perhaps he was too excited, County Magistrate Z’s voice was louder, and Liu Qingshan heard it even though he didn’t want to hear it.

A large group of people including County Magistrate Wang and Zheng Hongqi also gathered around to watch. County Magistrate Z shook the paper in his hand and said in a very showy manner: "This is an internal procurement approval document. The amount is 30,000 US dollars. With this guarantee, I feel in my heart

It’ll be safe.”

What the hell? Is there such a thing as an internal procurement approval document?

When Liu Qingshan heard the word "approval", he was a little suspicious. After all, this thing was later broken, and I don't know how many people were deceived.

"Old Zhao, how did you get it?"

The onlookers began to ask questions, their eyes full of envy.

County Magistrate Z did not hide anything, and continued with a lively expression: "I am also lucky. Director Bai of the Provincial Department helped to introduce him. They are a few young people from the capital over there in the sleeper berth."

Having said this, he looked around and then lowered his voice: "I heard that there was a kid from a big shot's family inside, so he was able to get this thing out."

There were low exclamations all around, and some people with quick thinking began to ask: "Old Zhao, how did you get it?"

County Magistrate Z smiled and said nothing, just stretched out three fingers, and then quickly took them back.

Everyone present immediately understood: It is worth spending three hundred yuan to obtain such an internal procurement approval document!

In order to earn foreign exchange through exports, all the counties below have received quotas. Although there is no clear document, if they cannot complete the prescribed tasks, will they be able to reap the benefits?
