As soon as Zhang Jinhai returned home, Zhang Jinshan dragged him to Jinshan Brick and Tile Factory.
Good guy, the scene is so grand.
The whole brick and tile factory was full of people.
No need to introduce the situation, everyone knows that these are here to help carry bricks and tiles.
According to the current situation, it is estimated that all the existing bricks and tiles will be picked up within a week.
This means that there will be no spot for sale later.
This immediately stumped Zhang Jinshan.
So Zhang Jinhai was invited to the brick and tile factory to help come up with ideas.
Zhang Jinhai analyzed the current situation and suggested increasing kiln production and continuing to rent large areas of wasteland.
Zhang Jinshan is very confident now.
Arrangements were made immediately.
Zhang Jinshan's brick kiln factory was originally designed as a large kiln, with a kiln capable of firing up to 100,000 standard green bricks.
Initially, four large kilns were built, three for firing standard green bricks and one for firing small green tiles.
Each brick kiln can produce one standard kiln of bricks per month on average.
On average, each kiln can produce one kiln of small green tiles per kiln, and each kiln has 150,000 tiles.
It can produce 300,000 standard green bricks every month. After half a year of production, the total volume reached 1.8 million standard green bricks.
After half a year of tile production, the total output reached 900,000 pieces.
All these stocks have been sold out. There are more than 100 households in the entire production team, and 60% of them have already ordered bricks and tiles.
The current gross profit is about more than 40,000 yuan.
Expanding the factory will cost a lot of money.
The real profit is not very clear.
Zhang Jinlin's pig farm is also going smoothly.
Zhang Jincheng's feed factory has also expanded its scale. In addition to supplying Zhang Jinlin's pig farm, it also supplies neighbors in the same production team.
In the weak cold wind, 1984 has gradually come to an end.
Starting from the morning of New Year's Eve, there was light snow falling in the sky.
The custom in rural areas is to end a year's work before lunch.
After lunch, the family gathered together to prepare for that year's New Year's Eve dinner.
This year is one of the most crowded years when the Zhang family celebrates the New Year at home.
There are two parents of the Zhang family, the eldest Zhang Jinlin’s father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhang Jinlin, Liu Mei, Zhang Jinshan, Zhang Jincheng, and Zhang Jinhai.
A big family, nine people in total.
Zhang's father and Zhang's mother took the lead in preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, and others were responsible for cooperating and helping.
Two brothers, Zhang Jinhai and Zhang Jincheng, were responsible for buying firecrackers to be set off on New Year's Eve and the first day of the Lunar New Year.
After the meat was cooked in the afternoon, Father Zhang led his four sons up the mountain to pay homage to their ancestors.
Zhang Jinhai is responsible for placing and setting off firecrackers.
Zhang Jinlin was responsible for hanging a piece of paper money on the grave using a bamboo pole.
Zhang Jinshan and Zhang Jincheng were responsible for shoveling the soft soil from the surrounding area and carrying it with bamboo poles, and then piled it on the ridge of the tomb.
This is a hard job.
Father Zhang was responsible for lighting the candles and placing the sacrificial wine, bacon, and sausages.
Father Zhang arranged: "Jin Hai, light the firecrackers to let the elderly know that they can come and collect money."
"Okay." Zhang Jinhai struck a match with a stab and lit the fuse of the firecracker that had been placed on the ground.
The sound of "cracking, popping, popping" firecrackers rang out, and the smell of gunpowder smoke drifted over.
Zhang Jinhai took a deep breath with great enjoyment. He hadn't smelled such a friendly smell in a long time.
"You four brothers, each with three sticks of incense, light this candle.
When you see white ash appearing on the top of the incense, it means the incense has been lit." Father Zhang instructed.
After all the incense was lit, Father Zhang and his four brothers lined up behind them. The five of them held the bottom of the incense with both hands and raised it above their heads.
"A bow!"
"Two bows!"
"Three bows!"
"Send incense."
Father Zhang first put the incense in the soil in front of the candle.
In order, the eldest, second, third and fourth put the incense in the soil.
Father Zhang tore off three pieces of paper money with money eyes that he brought up the mountain.
Fold it in half, light it on a candle, and place it on a small flat ground.
The arrangement was: "You brothers will also come and burn some paper money for grandma.
Please ask her to bless your business and make a fortune.
Excellent academic performance."
Father Zhang kept mumbling something.
Zhang Jinhai had never learned this in his previous life, but he listened carefully this time when he had the opportunity.
I hope I can remember it, otherwise when I visit the grave in the future, I will only have one action, which is to burn paper money.
It took five men nearly an hour to complete all the worship work.
Cut the sausage into small pieces and eat one piece per person before leaving.
Back home, Father Zhang filled a large gourd with half of the cooked pork head and placed it on a low bench.
Carrying a thick stack of paper money, Zhang Jinhai was asked to help pick up and place items at any time.
First, worship the ancestors in the main room, then worship the Kitchen God in the kitchen room, and then worship the Pig Pen God in the pig pen room.
After completing a set of procedures, another half hour passed.
Zhang Jinhai brought the pig head meat used for worship into the kitchen, and Zhang's mother took it out and cut it into meat and vegetables.
Liu Mei, Liu’s mother, and Liu’s father have been helping cook the New Year’s Eve dinner in the kitchen.
When having New Year's Eve dinner here, I don't want to be disturbed by any outsiders.
So you have to wait until dark before you can eat.
There are even rumors that if someone calls you not to agree to the New Year's Eve dinner, otherwise it will be unlucky.
Otherwise, you must invite the person who called you in for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Then the unlucky person is the person who calls you.
Naturally these things cannot be confirmed.
While waiting for dark, the Zhang and Liu families set up a dragon gate array.
Zhang Jinlin said: “My harvest this year is the biggest.
Not only did it cure the abscess on my foot that had been present for thirty years.
And a large-scale pig farm was also built.
At the same time, she also got married to Liu Mei.
Of course, all of this is thanks to a very important person.
He is Zhang Jinhai, the fourth child in our family."
Zhang Jinshan said with a smile: "This year I gained the most.
Although I haven't accomplished as many things as my elder brother.
But I built a brick factory and a precast panel factory.
Moreover, the brick and tile factory also achieved an initial gross profit of more than 40,000 yuan.
No matter how awesome my brother is, he is still devoted to it.
All this was hard-earned for me, and I have to thank my fourth brother Jin Hai."
Zhang Jincheng smiled and said: "I really can't judge who has gained the most, the eldest and the second.
But this year I also gained a lot.
My feed mill was built from scratch.
Originally only for the boss, it was later used by the entire production team.
The prospects for making money are still very good.
This is also something I need to thank Laosi Jinhai in particular.”
Zhang Jinhai smiled and said: "We four brothers don't want to say who is thanking whom.
If anyone is in trouble, wouldn’t anyone help?
In addition, I just gave some ideas to my three brothers.
I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone.
The year 1985 was bound to be a year of vigorous economic development.
All kinds of chaos may also appear.
Everyone has to think about how to run their own business well.
We should also always think about how to protect the fruits of victory.
Because someone might come out to cause trouble at any time.
If you don't have enough strength, it will be difficult to truly protect yourself.
