Pingyang County, Shanqian Village.

"Jingyun Button Factory."

Zhao Wenmu pulled little girl Zheng Meiyun to Zhao Xuelei.

"Captain Zhao, Comrade Zheng Meiyun will be responsible for the operation and management of the button factory from now on. I hope our team will continue to support the work!"

Zhao Xuelei looked at the little girl in front of him curiously.

What he said in his mouth was:

"I'm not a captain, we in Shanqian Village are just a small team."

Then he stretched out his right hand and said kindly:

"Comrade Zheng Meiyun, please take good care of me from now on."

The little girl was flattered and quickly stretched out her hand. A big rough hand and a white and delicate little hand were gently held together.

"Second uncle, I want the wasteland south of the village entrance as the venue."

Next to the road from Shanqian Village to Pingyang County is a large wasteland. There is almost no soil here, it is all kinds of stones, and even grass does not grow much.

In a previous life, around 1986, Shanqian Village took advantage of a severe drought that caused the reservoir to almost dry up. They dug river mud and transported it to this open space, creating more than 400 acres of fertile farmland.

At that time, there were only four tractors in the village.

Excavators don't even exist.

Everyone dug the soil manually, transported it with carts, and used the most primitive methods to overcome all difficulties.

We are truly creating a better tomorrow with sweat and tears!

(This paragraph is the author’s personal experience, but it actually happened in 1995. Even at that time, there were few tractors in our village. It was basically semi-mechanical and semi-human to transport river mud from about one kilometer away. Around 2007, another dredging project was carried out.

Using excavators and ten-wheel trucks, the project was completed in just a few days.)

Back to the topic.

"That piece of wasteland? Sure! How much do you want?"

Zhao Xuelei was naturally extremely happy when he heard that he only wanted that piece of wasteland.

That piece of wasteland is so inhospitable that even a pumpkin won't bear fruit, so it's a perfect place to build a factory.

As for how to deal with those stones, that is what Zhao Wenmu needs to consider.

"I want them all, from the south of the road to the entire wasteland by the river, to the west to the flood ditch next to the village, and to the east to the small dam, I want them all!"

"You want it all?! This wasteland is at least 150 acres. Why do you want so much?"

Zhao Xuelei's first reaction was not "No", but "What are you doing here!"

This is somewhat intriguing.

"Second uncle, buttons are just a small appetizer. In the future, they can also be used to make zippers, clothing, and toys. There are so many more things you can do!"

"If I want such a large piece of land, why don't I think of putting it all in our village in the future?"

Zhao Wenmu drew a cake casually.

Zhao Xuelei shuddered.

Zheng Meiyun's heart stopped for a moment, and then started beating violently again.

Zhao Xuelei looked into his eyes, trying to see something in them.

Zhao Wenmu smiled softly and just let him look at her.

After a while.

"Okay! I'll take care of this land for you!"

Zhao Xuelei let out a long sigh, he had a lot of things to do.

"Where's the rent? It's unreasonable not to pay rent for such a large piece of land!"

"How about 10% equity of Jingyun Factory? Use the 30-year right to use this land in exchange for 10% equity of Jingyun Factory."

As if waiting for him to ask this matter, Zhao Wenmu immediately answered as soon as Zhao Xuelei opened his mouth.

The total investment in Jingyun Button Factory is about 220,000 yuan. If the land use rights are equivalent to 10% equity, its actual valuation is about 24,400 yuan.

A fairly reasonable price.

"You kid, you've plotted on me!"

Zhao Xuelei pointed at him!

Naturally, this matter cannot be calculated simply like this, it has another meaning.

That is a joint venture with the Shanqian Village production team!

A mixed-ownership enterprise dominated by private capital but with the participation of state-owned capital (collective capital).

This is a brand new attempt.

The initial exploration of the mixed-ownership economy began in 1984 with foreign investment.

With the opening up of the eastern coastal areas, foreign investment in China based on cooperative operations has opened up the path of exploration of a mixed-ownership economy. State-owned enterprises or collective enterprises have begun to cooperate with foreign-funded enterprises in joint ventures to increase the scale of exports through the introduction of technology and imitation and innovation.

It formed a model for early mixed ownership economic development.

It was also at the Third Plenary Session of the Twelfth Central Committee held in 1984 that it was proposed that under the guidance of national economic policies and plans, "implement the policy of the country, collectives, and individuals working together, and persist in developing diversified economic forms and diversified operations."

Way.

It was only April 1981, and public-private partnerships in the form of equity were still very rare.

Or not at all.

In fact, it’s not that there is none, it’s just that everything is done in the form of affiliation.

It's probably not something that's come out on the record.

"Amu, is this okay? Do you think the county will approve it?"

Zhao Xuelei was a little unsure.

“If we don’t approve it, the county will definitely not approve it!”

Zhao Wenmu answered without hesitation.

"puff!"

"Cough cough cough cough..."

Little girl Zheng Meiyun broke out into an earth-shattering cough.

“What can you say if the county doesn’t approve it?”

Zhao Xuelei was a little angry.

Isn't this making fun of your second uncle?

To be honest, Zhao Xuelei is quite excited. If he can cooperate with Zhao Wenmu, there will definitely be a lot of benefits in the future.

But he reacted immediately.

"What can you do?"

It was impossible for Zhao Wenmu to insist on doing it despite knowing that it wouldn't work.

Now that I have said that, there should naturally be a solution.

"Second uncle, I don't have any good ideas."

Zhao Wenmu spread his hands.

What ability does he have to change this kind of national political issue?

But now is an era that dares to fight and innovate.

Many people have the courage to make some new attempts.

When crossing a river by feeling the stones, someone must walk in front, right?

"If it really doesn't work, we can only ask Vice Mayor Liu for help."

Yes, there is also this giant Buddha! Zhao Wenmu’s words reminded Zhao Xuelei.

"If that still doesn't work, we can only sign an agreement with the production team and put the Jingyun factory under the production team's name for three years."

If by 1984, there would not be a big problem with the policy of operating Jingyun Factory.

At least it's ambiguous.

In any case, the construction of Jingyun Factory started in full swing the next day.

Amidst the loud sound of firecrackers, Zhao Jing and Zheng Meiyun shoveled the first shovel of soil respectively, and the engineering team entered the site for construction.

Chen Xuekun settled directly in Shanqian Village.
