Era: Retired From the Army at the Beginning and Returned Home

Chapter 258 If You Want It, I’ll Give It to You

In an era when everything is state-owned, if you are not purchasing items personally, you don’t really have to worry about the price being too expensive.

Even if your car factory gives you 10 million and you don't have to spend it, the audit will start about ten days after the new year, and everything you buy and sell will be audited.

Then, except for the retention money, theoretically all profits belong to the state. But the local finance will not drain your profits, but will leave a certain amount of profits in your account based on a percentage. Probably about 70% has to be handed over.

So if you sell the business cube car 2.0 for 80,000 yuan, for Ngee Ann, that means first transferring the financial money to the car factory. After a few months, another 70% was recovered. This is because the automobile factory has just been established. Like some old factories, if the working capital you left last quarter is not used, it will automatically be transferred into the new quarterly working capital next month.

For example, if you have a profit of 100,000 yuan in a quarter, I will leave you 30,000 yuan. But after the next quarter, you still only have a profit of 100,000 yuan, and the 30,000 yuan in the last quarter was not used. Then all profits equal to the second quarter will be turned over, and at most a retention fund will be left.

A car costs 80,000 yuan, which is very expensive. Some formal workers cannot earn it without food or drink in their entire lives. But the meat is rotten in the pot, so what if I buy it all for one or two million for you. Similarly, if your automobile factory has money, it doesn’t want to turn it over to the finance, so it spends all the money. But as I said before, the money is spent on the steel rolling mill, the machinery factory, and on construction and workers. The money is still in Ngee Ann, and at most it will be collected from other factories during the quarter.

For example, in the past two months, the machinery factory has basically received machinery production orders from the automobile factory. The price of the machinery factory is not low, and the profit is also high. This is equivalent to the car factory transferring profits. As for machinery, orders are not stable. Some small factories may buy equipment once and then add one or two pieces of equipment a few years later.

Therefore, the machinery factory will not rashly expand its scale just because there are orders. At most, it will use the retention money to provide some benefits to employees. When the quarter comes, most of the profits will still be paid.

Of course, if the purchase is made outside the local urban area, funds may flow out. This is something that local units do not want to see. In order to avoid such a situation, if some enterprises only purchase external products but cannot sell them, local units will generally not agree to the approval.

Unless the demand is huge and you don't produce it yourself, you still have to purchase finished products from other places. In that case, there is no way.

For a city, it is best to go to the city to purchase items. For a province or region, as long as the following enterprises do not cooperate in purchasing across provinces or cities, their meat will rot in the pot. For a country, everything belongs to the country. It’s okay to spend 100,000 yuan to buy something. But if you import something worth 10,000 yuan from abroad, excluding the actual cost, the foreign country may earn 9,000 yuan at home.

For foreign imports, the meat does not rot in the pot, but is actually eaten by others. Therefore, in order to prevent some people in China from relying on imports, the prices of items purchased overseas are increased by five to ten times and sold domestically.

Now in overseas markets, if a car is priced in U.S. dollars, an ordinary low-end car costs several thousand dollars. A person from the Eagle Country with a little ability can buy a car of his own in one year.

In China, a car costs about 40,000 U.S. dollars based on the exchange of RMB to U.S. dollars. It's ridiculously expensive. Except for the powerful capitalists who still exist, you can occasionally see private cars. Even leaders in China cannot afford to own a private car and cannot afford it.

Therefore, when the forklifts and engines of automobile factories can be exported, the above must protect them. Otherwise, Luo Cheng took the initiative to ask for a military factory. He really thought that because of Dai Tiande's reputation, his superiors would agree to such nonsense. It's not because the car factory has made a contribution, and this contribution is not just how many things you exchanged. But it can increase the international influence of the RMB.

Exporting a few forklifts and engines can increase the international influence of the RMB. People who don't understand may think it is a fantasy. But it is indeed the case. Now many foreign countries do not recognize China’s RMB exchange rate and do not want RMB. Just because I have to ask for RMB, I feel that there is no use for it, except that I can buy light industrial products such as grain, tea and silk, but these are not very valuable.

If some countries are not short of food, to be honest, I don’t know what to spend the RMB on. And Japan is a defeated country, why is their country's currency recognized by many countries? It's because Japan has enough industrial products and things that everyone needs. With your currency, I can at least buy what I need.

In later generations, why many countries are willing to accept RMB settlement in addition to the US dollar? It is because they think that even if some countries do not recognize it, China has enough things to buy, so in some fields, it does not matter if it is settled in RMB.

This is the case in China now. At least for some countries, in addition to buying grain and minerals, RMB can also buy forklifts and good car engines. At least there are more choices, and when doing trade, you may not directly refuse to trade in RMB.

The car factory now wants to sell the newly launched cube cars. Do you know why it is so hard to get car purchase certificates in Amado? If you want to buy such an expensive car, it is not a matter of money at all. Because local money is actually the same as that of enterprises. The amount of urban areas is handed over to the provinces and regions, and the amount of money from provinces and regions is handed over to the national treasury. This is not used, and it is also a waste for the local area.

Local units do not dare to use it blindly. They will be held responsible if any problems arise. Therefore, as long as the car purchase is within a reasonable financial range, Ngee Ann City can really cover the car factory's cube cars.

But now Secretary Changcheng also participated in this product display, and Secretary Changcheng also brought some cadres from Changcheng to visit. And since Changcheng is the provincial capital, this problem is even bigger.

There were more than 20 vehicles, including five commercial vehicles, but Secretary Jiang only got one. Secretary Changcheng didn't say anything himself, but borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha and bought them for the provincial and district chief S and the secretary, which Secretary Jiang didn't dare to refuse. This time Director Chen from the steel rolling mill also came, and he wanted to take one away on behalf of the military region.

And those who agreed, among the conventional cars, Ngee Ann City did not grab a few. Which is more important, the urban district public security department, or the provincial or district public security department? Moreover, according to the system division, urban public security departments are under the management of provinces and districts. At the local level, they only assist local units in their work. The first and second-in-command in urban areas can at most be temporarily suspended from their posts at the public security bureau, but the final decision must be made by the provincial and district public security bureaus.

So it would be good if Ngee Ann City could keep a few of them, the rest were taken away by Secretary Chang Cheng. As for money, it would hurt if Secretary Changcheng paid a thousand yuan out of his own pocket, but this was purchased by a local unit, and one million yuan would not be a big deal. And for provinces and regions, it doesn't matter. No matter how you trade between the cities and districts below, they are all eggs in the basket and cannot escape.

And because of Secretary Changcheng's intervention, all the cars that Luo Cheng had left for some large companies were gone. This product display later became a pre-sale event. If big companies want it, they will accept reservations. However, the maximum number of reservations is one per company. The Chinese New Year is approaching and not many cars can be produced. And next year, we will try to export. If we can export, we will have a lot of food.

If you have food, you can buy fruits, seafood and the like in Hainan, Guangdong and other regions. Even if Luo Cheng fails to produce off-season greenhouse vegetables next year, in Guangdong, he can actually buy some cold-resistant vegetables even at this time, because even in winter, the temperature in Guangdong will not be very low.

But similarly, you can’t buy vegetables and fruits just by having money. It’s easy to exchange them for food.

Nowadays, the canteen of the automobile factory does not have a cooking function because there is not much variety in the canteen. Apart from fried rice noodles and rice cakes, other items have not been introduced yet.

There is an ice rink here now, and the cinema will open inside in a few days. After that, the cinema will officially open, and there will be more couples. Ngee Ann is not like Four Nine Towns. There are many restaurants, roast duck restaurants, and even Western restaurants. But when setting up a stir-fry restaurant that is open to the public, making money is the second most important thing, and it is more convenient for those who come to have fun.

And Luo Cheng now makes nearly 200 a month for miscellaneous things, such as the university research laboratory supervised by Gao Ru. He has always been in name. Without salary, at least he can get a bonus. But now I can eat for a few bucks, and I don’t need to go to Pigeon Market to buy food.

It may even be that because of Luo Cheng's measures, the price of food in the pigeon market in Ngee Ann City will drop. Not only do the workers at the automobile factory no longer need to go to Pigeon Market to buy food, but it can even provide relief to some people so that others do not need to take the risk of going to Pigeon Market.

Luo Cheng's salary is so high that in this era, it is difficult to spend it. By setting up a stir-fry, at least it will be convenient for you to eat whatever you want in the future, and even make various snacks in the future. As long as it is not a personal operation, there is no problem at all in the name of a factory. All the money you earn has to be turned in. You just need to send someone to declare it when you do it.

The new product display event was relatively successful, especially in the large canteen of the automobile factory. It was easy to entertain hundreds of people. All it took was to find a spot in the hall and pull a rope. The window selling breakfast and fried noodles specially prepared some dishes and staple food to entertain some uninvited people.

At least there is meat and vegetables, but there are not many vegetables, but there is a big pot of Chinese cabbage. The heads of these small businesses and units actually eat in the canteens of their units when they are not entertaining, and they are not very prosperous. Moreover, you need to pay money and tickets to eat and buy food. It's nice to have such hospitality.

The private rooms are where the main guests are received. Fortunately, there are three private rooms, otherwise it would be difficult to arrange the temporary addition of Secretary Changcheng and his party.

Of course, a table must be added in the private room to accommodate seating, and the space for adding a table must be enough.

This time Luo Cheng wanted Xu Haitang and Li Xiaotong to come and eat and drink with the secretary, but he didn't dare. The level is too high and there are many people. If they are accompanied, they have to drink alcohol. They are a bit drunk, but they can't bear such a scene.

However, it was difficult for the two of them to give up this opportunity to eat and drink together. The two of them ran to the kitchen to serve food. Director He of the cafeteria thought it was Luo Cheng who gave the order. He felt that the factory director was smart. This little girl was pretty. It would be better to serve the boss than the kitchen staff.

And when there were reception meals in the past, these two girls were usually there. As a result, they showed up whenever there was a reception meal. People who knew them in the kitchen were used to it and thought it was always arranged by Factory Manager Luo. So sometimes it's normal for the two of them to test dishes in the kitchen. When serving rice and steamed buns to your boss, it’s normal to keep one or two steamed buns for yourself.

There was even special fried rice noodles today, and the two girls were brave enough to pretend to preach the imperial edict. The rice noodle cook was asked to leave a bowl for each of them. They had to serve the leader and could not eat at the same table as the leader. They had to wait for the leader to finish serving and the two of them went to the kitchen to eat some.

Anyway, it was the leader of the automobile factory who gave the order, and they were indeed busy between the private room and the kitchen. No one dared not believe it.

Of course, in fact, every time he saw Xu Haitang and Li Xiaotong eating and drinking together, Luo Cheng never stopped them, so he acquiesced in their behavior. And specially arranged people to prepare rice and serve dishes for the leaders, so that visitors can experience the feeling of being respected.

There is only an aisle from the kitchen to the private room, which is a blind spot between the kitchen and the private room. Luo Cheng just hoped that these two girls wouldn't be so greedy that they would eat a piece of food with their hands while serving the food when no one was paying attention in the aisle.

Anyway, this kind of thing was basically done by waiters when serving dishes in many hotels in later generations. And if the dishes are messed up, they will be straightened out by hand.

After the exhibition, Luo Cheng didn't want to mess with anything anymore in the last few days of the year. In addition, the New Year's benefits are about to be paid out. Director Wu and others are all from Liancheng. They actually have work to deal with at the forklift factory in Liancheng, so they can't go back too late.

Luo Cheng and Director Zhang had already discussed it, and it would be the same for the workers to pay out their New Year benefits in advance. The main purpose is to set an example for forklift factory workers who are willing to come. By registering and reporting in advance, most skilled workers plan to come here after the Chinese New Year this year.

There are only a few masters, and their children seem to be working in the forklift factory, and they are also regular workers. Those who have left their hometown really don't want to go through the trouble. Although Director Zhang had promised in private that as long as the children of his group of masters reached the appropriate age, they would also be assigned work. But it's impossible to let them all come.

After all, if you come here, you may only go back once or twice a year. This means that we will lose contact with many relatives. People are emotional animals, and there will always be some people who can't let go of so much.

The New Year's benefits this time are actually not much more than the benefits paid during last month's salary payment. It's not that the automobile factory doesn't want to provide it. The automobile factory has money and food, but many things are difficult to obtain. At most, each person will receive it on the basis of the previous one. Send some meat.

It’s time to recycle the pigs raised in Longjin Town. Except for the five that the town plans to keep for itself, the other fifteen will be recycled to the automobile factory according to the agreement. After deducting the capital owed for the previous purchase of pigs, I plan to get grain back.

The officials of the commune planned to keep one head for a good year, while the two brigades planned to kill two heads each. Each team can share some. When the time comes, a large pot of cabbage will be stewed with a piece of meat. The team and the villagers will each taste some soup with meat.

This is supported by the food obtained from the automobile factory. Previously, chickens, ducks, eggs, and some other livelihoods were available. They all got some grain, otherwise the town wouldn't be willing to keep five of them for themselves, knowing how much the pork could be sold for. It's normal for people in this town to want to eat meat after their food supply has slowed down.

Also, because the pigs were raised late, the pigs brought in were not very fat. Basically, they weigh between 160 and 180 pounds each. With this weight, the pigs in the livestock factory would not be put into the slaughterhouse at all. The pigs in the livestock factory must be at least 240 kilograms or more and have a lot of fat.

But it’s almost Chinese New Year, so we have to deal with it all. After the automobile factory got the remaining fourteen pigs, it followed its promise and called people from the Chengdong District Police Station to come over and let them take one away.

Therefore, when workers in the forklift factory leave, they only need to report. Level five workers can purchase thirty-five kilograms of rice, and level six workers can purchase forty-five kilograms of rice. According to the same level, level five workers are given one and a half pounds of meat and half a pound of meat with bones. Level six is ​​one and a half pounds of meat and one pound with bones. Soybean oil, 4 liang to 5 liang, this oil was obtained through 'collusion' between the grain and grain station directors.

Rice bran and soybean meal, twenty kilograms each. The defective cloth is eight feet for the fifth grade and ten feet for the sixth grade. The flour is also two kilograms and two and a half kilograms, and the rice cakes are one kilogram and one kilogram and two taels. They are given out directly for free. One kilogram of kelp is a small amount. It is only calculated according to formal and informal levels, and is not broken down by level and cadre leadership. Even Luo Cheng only received one kilogram of kelp.

There is also a water cup, towel and two pieces of soap for each person.

The above, except for the grain that needs to be subscribed at market prices and spent some money, the rest are distributed in kind. As for some bills, workers at the forklift factory cannot enjoy them because most of the bills have geographical restrictions. They will wait until they come to work here next year. , are you still afraid that you will be missed?

For example, the more precious cotton coupons and tobacco and alcohol coupons are only available to formal workers. Large-ticket tickets are also available, but they are generally awarded to talents with outstanding performance. For example, Teacher Hu Ping will bring his family here after the New Year, so I must keep this bicycle ticket for him.

Anyway, oil, meat, rice, kelp, rice cakes, flour, rice bran and soybean meal, cloth and daily necessities, a lot. If all these people go back in trucks, they won't be able to take them back. Each person's belongings add up to hundreds of kilograms. You must know that they all brought clothes and quilts with them when they came, so including their own things, it weighed a hundred or dozens of kilograms.

When Director Wu saw this situation, he could only face the reality. He had not learned the technology and lost more than half of his senior technical workers. But there is nothing similar. The original order from above was to dispatch skilled workers to the automobile factory to support production. It's an order to stay right away, not to provide temporary assistance for a while. This means obeying orders.

Just when Director Wu was about to take the workers back to Liancheng, Luo Cheng stopped him and called him to the factory director's office. More than a dozen structural drawings of forklift components were placed in front of Director Wu. The new forklift technology was actually the hydraulic device and booster pump. Of course, the weight and balance data of the forklift also took time and money to calculate.

Automobile factories really need these high-level skilled workers. Who knows that today’s machines cannot replace high-skilled workers? And Luo Cheng also saw that Director Wu was not willing to be the director of just one branch factory.

In fact, it is good to be ambitious, but Luo Cheng thinks it depends on the situation. He is a person with a system and a 'background'. If he becomes a branch of a car factory, if he has no ambition, he will say and do whatever he wants. On the contrary, under the care of the automobile factory, even a branch factory can become a super factory in the future.

Just like engines, once the development of an automobile factory is limited by land, the scale is too large and there is no contiguous land to be approved. Sooner or later, the business of some automobile factories will be separated independently and become branches of the automobile factory. If the engine is separated, just by exporting it, it can become a super factory.

The automobile factory has already reported so many forklift factory workers, so there is no need to reveal the purpose of Director Wu's visit. The forklift market is very big now. If you want the technology to produce it yourself, just say it and it will be given to you. You are responsible for domestic production, don't pay attention to styling techniques, and contribute to the domestic industry.

And automobile factories, in order to get more rice, must export. Without rice, who would bother with the forklift? Automobile factories have already started producing cars.

Holding the drawings, Director Wu had mixed feelings and didn't know what to say. Not only the drawings, but also the forklift factory in Liancheng. Luo Cheng also promised that the automobile factory would not interfere in anything in the future, but the above approval document could not help it. In Liancheng, the forklift factory could only exist as the Ngee Ann Automobile Factory Forklift Branch.

As for the workers at the forklift factory, there were too many things distributed. Luo Ben originally wanted to arrange for someone to order some train tickets for them to take the train. But it's the end of the year, and it's extremely difficult to buy train tickets. Even if I give Luo Cheng some face, it's okay to transfer a few tickets. There's really nothing I can do if I ask for too many, and trains to Liancheng don't run every day.

Finally, Luo Cheng transferred a driver to drive a truck from the automobile factory and follow Director Wu's truck to Liancheng. If the driver is on a long-distance business trip, he will receive a subsidy of one yuan per day. With the subsidy, the driver will have to figure out his own food.

After sending Director Wu and the others away, the automobile factory is still busy every day, and its own workers will also receive benefits. Unlike the technicians at the forklift factory, the employees of the automobile factory also have a lot of bills. The meat distributed is meat raised and recycled by oneself, and because of the relationship with the meat factory, how could there be no meat tickets?

So if employees at the automobile factory want to make dumplings during the Chinese New Year this year, they can certainly make them with meat fillings. In fact, when making dumplings during the Chinese New Year these days, many people make whatever they want, including some cabbage is normal. You must know that dumpling wrappers are made of flour. These days, eating dumpling wrappers alone is what many people crave.

And just a few days after the auto show, people from the provincial department also asked for cars from the automobile factory. I was full of praise for the car factory's cube cars, so the car factory added another thing to its New Year's goods, fish. Several tons of fish were enough to give one to temporary workers and two to regular workers. However, because it was transferred from other urban areas, everyone who got it would definitely be dead. When it comes to the automobile factory, it must be marinated immediately. If it is not marinated, it must be eaten immediately, otherwise even if the weather is cold, it will not last for a few days and will deteriorate.
