Chapter 185 Nan Yi’s rapid rise to prominence!
"That's not what I meant. She is the director of our Red Star Commune. If she doesn't take responsibility, who will?"
Many girls in the Red Star Commune had their eyes light up when they saw Yan Jiekuang. They all wanted to marry in the city, and if they could marry Yan Jiekuang, they would be marrying into a wealthy family. However, there were not many pretty girls in the commune, and even the prettiest ones were not as pretty as Ding Qiunan.
After walking around the Red Star Commune for more than an hour, Yan Jiekuang and Xiao Tang returned to the capital.
The closest to the capital was the Red Star Commune, followed by the Beitai Commune, then the Dongxiang Commune, then the Ningshan Commune..., and the Nantai Commune was more than tenth in line. When Yan Jiekuang returned to the capital, the director of the food factory had not yet returned from the Beitai Commune.
The food factory is also closing.
Yan Jiekuang left the factory and went to the steel rolling mill.
When Yan Jiekuang arrived at the steel mill, the workers had just finished their shift.
Nan Yi was holding a handbag and just walked out of the factory gate when she saw Yan Jiekuang.
Nan Yi was also a little surprised.
"Brother Nan, I need your help with something." Yan Jiekuang said to Nan Yi.
Yan Jiekuang asked Nan Yi for help with something, and Nan Yi was happy instead.
The favor he owed was too great, which made it impossible for Nan Yi to get along with Yan Jiekuang on an equal footing.
"What's the matter? I will help you as long as I can do it." Nan Yi said.
"Food is in short supply now. The amount of flour sent to the food factory by the Red Star Commune this month is only half of what it was last month, and it will be even less next month. I want to try my luck in the Nantai Commune, and I want you to go with me." Yan Jiekuang said.
After hearing what Yan Jiekuang said, Nan Yi understood.
Baimian is too important to the food factory.
If the steel mill canteen does not have white flour, corn flour can be used. As long as the workers can eat their fill, that's enough. But workers in the food factory can eat coarse grains, but they cannot use corn flour to make bread, biscuits, instant noodles, etc.
"No problem." Nan Yi agreed immediately.
While Director Yang and Deputy Director Zhu were still in the factory, Nan Yi hurried to the factory to ask for leave.
The director of the food factory also returned to the capital and went to Xiabeitai Commune, where he got dozens of kilograms of white flour, but this was not enough.
The gap is too big, and it will be even bigger next month.
Fortunately, except for white flour, the rest are not less than last month, otherwise the food factory would have had a very difficult time this month.
First they went to the supply and marketing cooperative, then to the grain and oil station, and then to Beitai Commune. The factory director was exhausted and planned to go to another commune tomorrow. Yan Jiekuang also took out 50 kilograms of flour from his space and sold it to the factory for one yuan per kilogram.
One dollar for a pound of flour is not outrageous nowadays.
After returning to the courtyard, Yan Jiekuang asked Yan Bugui to hold a meeting of the entire courtyard.
When everyone was present, Yan Bugui said, "The food factory is short of white flour this month. If anyone has white flour, my third child can exchange it for three pounds of coarse grains." Three pounds of coarse grains for one pound of fine grains, this made everyone excited.
Generally speaking, one pound of fine grain can only be exchanged for more than two pounds of coarse grain.
Moreover, this also helps Yan Jiekuang.
Xu Damao was the first to speak: "I still have more than eight kilograms of flour at home."
"I still have more than a pound of flour at home," said He Yushui.
"I have three pounds of flour at home." Yi Zhonghai.
"I still have more than two kilograms of flour." The deaf old lady also spoke.
"I have half a pound of flour." It was surprising that Jia Zhang also spoke.
After everyone scraped together some flour, they had several dozen kilograms of white flour, which required more than a hundred kilograms of corn flour to exchange.
As for the more than 100 kilograms of corn flour, of course it was taken from the food factory.
The food factory doesn't have much white flour, but it has a lot of corn flour.
As the deputy director of a food factory, of course I have this power.
Everyone sent the flour to Yan's house, and Yan Bugui took a pen and a small notebook to write it down. Tomorrow, Yan Jiekuang would have someone send more than 100 kilograms of corn flour to the courtyard. Although the additional dozens of kilograms of flour did not solve the flour problem of the food factory, it could make the situation of the food factory better after all.
Although no one in the compound who took out white flour suffered a loss, Yan Jiekuang still owed a small favor.
Nan Yi asked for leave and told Liang Ladi about it, and Liang Ladi also supported him.
Yan Jiekuang has been very kind to Nan Yi's family, so it is only natural for Nan Yi to help.
Early in the morning, when Yan Jiekuang and Nan Yi arrived at the train station, someone from the food factory delivered more than 100 kilograms of corn flour to the courtyard.
After putting down more than 100 kilograms of corn flour, dozens of kilograms of white flour were also taken away.
After waiting at the train station for more than half an hour, the train finally arrived.
Yan Jiekuang and Nan Yi boarded the train and found their respective seats, one in front and one behind.
The journey from the capital to Nantai Commune is quite long, so Yan Jiekuang started chatting with Nan Yi from time to time.
Along the way, I would take a nap when I felt sleepy and eat some instant noodles and sausage when I was hungry.
It's just not very convenient to go to the toilet.
The passengers in the same carriage with Yan Jiekuang were all jealous.
It’s so blissful to have instant noodles and sausage to eat.
Nan Yi also brought some food for the trip.
The so-called road dishes, as the name suggests, are dishes eaten on the road. They have several characteristics: they are easy to carry, delicious, and can be preserved for a long time. Yan Jiekuang also tasted the road dishes made by Nan Yi, and they were really good.
In the middle of the night, Yan Jiekuang secretly took out some jerky to eat, all of which were wild boar meat.
In the evening, looking at the sunset outside the car window, Yan Jiekuang took out the kettle and took a sip of tea.
"We will be able to see Nantai Commune in another three hours." Nan Yi said.
Upon hearing what Nan Yi said, Yan Jiekuang's expression changed.
In a few hours we will reach Nantai Commune. I wonder if there is white flour in Nantai Commune.
If Yan Jiekuang didn't gain anything after traveling all the way to Nantai Commune, he would be depressed to death.
Time passed little by little.
Sure enough, Nantai Commune could be seen three hours later.
Although both are rural communes, Nantai Commune cannot compare with Hongxing Commune.
The Red Star Commune is not only the closest to the capital, but also large in scale.
When the train stopped, Yan Jiekuang and Nan Yi got off the train.
After getting off the train, it took a long time to take a car to reach Nantai Commune.
The director of Nantai Commune was named Cui Yougen. He was a relative of Cui Dake, but they were five generations apart.
Cui Yougen was forking grass and saw Yan Jiekuang and Nan Yi.
Cui Yougen doesn’t know Yan Jiekuang, but he knows Nan Yi.
"Nan Yi?" Cui Yougen was also surprised.
Cui Yougen heard that Nan Yi went to the steel mill in Beijing.
From the branch factory to the main factory, Nan Yi can be said to have made great progress.
"Director Cui." Nan Yi greeted with a smile.
Although I am not very familiar with Choi Yoo-geun, I still need his help this time.
"Who is this young comrade?" Cui Yougen looked at Yan Jiekuang with curiosity.
Cui Yougen is not stupid. He knows that Nan Yi must have something going on when he comes to Nantai Commune.
Coming to Nantai Commune from the capital is no small matter.
And the young man who came with Nan Yi is probably not a simple person either.
"Hello, my name is Yan Jiekuang, the deputy director of Beijing Yili Food Factory." Yan Jiekuang said calmly.
When Cui Yougen heard what Yan Jiekuang said, he was stunned.
At this time, Cui Yougen widened his eyes, looked at Yan Jiekuang in disbelief, and then looked at Nan Yi.
