    He took the approval note from Manager Li agreeing to issue the invoice and the watermelon purchase contract, and then he let go of all the worries.  He held Manager Li's hand and said: "The people I want will be there on time at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. The two pickles are the key people in this business. When the watermelons are received, they must immediately take out the watermelon seeds and peel the watermelon rinds."  Pickle them into pickles.¡±

    Manager Li happily agreed: "Don't worry! The salary you gave is so high. The two people I found are masters of batch pickling. They not only taste good, but are also very responsible."

    He smiled and said, "Uncle Li, I'm going to start preparing for tomorrow's acquisition. Prepare kitchen knives, vegetable jars, and sacks for me." Manager Li laughed and pushed him out of the door impatiently: "  You have forgotten what our place is for, this is a supply and marketing cooperative, you can get whatever you want."

    He returned to Xu Lina¡¯s office and slapped Manager Li¡¯s approval slip on the table.  Xu Lina went out without saying a word.  After a while, she came in with the opened invoice, handed it to him with a charming smile and said, "It's done, the transistor radio business is finally completed. Let's celebrate at noon."

    He carefully put the invoice into his military satchel and said mysteriously: "A big business has come again. I am going to buy all the rotten watermelons. It costs 20 cents each for more than ten kilograms, and 10 cents for more than five kilograms. Under five kilograms  Five cents apiece. As many as you want. What do you think?"

    Xu Lina's eyes widened and she said, "You're crazy. You can't eat the watermelons this year. Why are you harvesting rotten watermelons?" He said excitedly: "Take out the watermelon seeds and pickle the watermelon rinds with pickles. Do you think you can make money? I'll give it to you."  If you do some calculations, a ten-pound watermelon can yield eight taels of watermelon seeds and four pounds of pickles. Based on the purchase price of watermelon seeds at 35 cents per catty and pickles at 10 cents per catty, you can earn a total of six cents.  Eight points. Subtracting costs and labor, you can make thirty cents!"

    Xu Lina listened and exclaimed: "Why didn't I think of it? Although this year's watermelon cannot be eaten, the seeds and watermelon rind are very good. According to what you said, it would be strange if you don't make tens of thousands of yuan a month! You said you want to  what I do?"

    He said very seriously and calmly: "The first is to keep it secret, and the second is to help me find a way to get the melon farmers in our county and several surrounding counties to send all the watermelons to the back door warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative. As for how to make money, you can figure it out yourself."  !¡±

    Xu Lina is not an ordinary person. When she heard him say this, "Don't worry, not only can I help you, I will definitely make a lot of money."

    Early the next morning, he took Da Di, Yu He, and Hao Jun to the supply and marketing cooperative. Da Di was responsible for counting the watermelons, and Yu He was responsible for paying.  Hao Jun ran errands with him.

    Two pickle picker masters were already waiting for him, and they both showed surprised expressions when they saw him.  They looked at each other and muttered: "Why are you still a baby? Such a big business is done by this teenage boy?"

    He said to the two masters nonchalantly: "I originally agreed to give you two a monthly salary of 60 yuan, but now I have changed my mind"

    Before he finished speaking, the two masters became anxious: "Boss, we don't mean to look down on you, you are too young. We are worried that you won't be able to do this business. We are people who make a living by working as coolies, so we don't need any salary."  Reduce it for us!¡±

    He smiled and said: "Why are you two so anxious? I haven't finished speaking yet. That's it, how long do you think it will take to pickle 800,000 kilograms of watermelon rinds?"

    The two of them were stunned with their mouths half open. It took a long time before the older one said: "How come there are so many watermelon rinds? How come eight hundred thousand kilograms doesn't take a few months?"

    He said calmly: "You two don't have to worry about how much watermelon rind there is. If the watermelon rind is cut into strips for you, and you are only responsible for drying and pickling, can it be completed in a month?"

    The younger master blinked and said a little embarrassedly: "Boss, as long as you give me a little more money, I can complete it in a month."

    He said loudly: "What I want is what you say, how much does it cost per kilogram and can you finish it in a month?"

    The two people looked at each other and walked ten meters away to discuss for a long time.  He came back and said to him: "Each person pays one cent per catty. We are only responsible for drying and pickling. We don't care about the rest."

    He said without hesitation: "I will double the amount for you, and each person will pay two cents per catty. Then I will give you four small workers." The two people couldn't believe their ears when they heard this, and said with doubts on their faces: "  Leader, are you telling the truth?"

    "It's true. My requirement is that we must complete the pickling of 800,000 kilograms of watermelon rinds in one month. Can we do it?"

    The two of them murmured for a long time, as if they were settling accounts.  After a while, the two people blushed and said: "Leader, as long as you have so much material, we will definitely complete it."

    When he heard this, he said to Hao Jun: "Take the two masters and twenty workers to the warehouse! Tell them that everythingTake out the seeds from a watermelon, cut the rind, and get one penny.  More work, more reward, piece rate.  "

    Hao Jun had been looking at him with appreciation and admiration. When he heard Hanwen ordering him, he whispered in his ear: "You are really like a general, you are well organized."

    He put his arm around Hao Jun's shoulders and said: "Stop praising me, you have to keep an eye on me. How many watermelons have you received? Have you completed the task? You are responsible for these supervision tasks. We have been here for many years."  Brother, if you do this job well for me, it will be worthy of our relationship for many years."

    Hao Jun put away his playful smile and said seriously: "Don't worry, I promise to complete the task." After that, he led the workers away.

    He came to the back door of the supply and marketing cooperative. There were already more than a hundred trucks delivering watermelons.  Less than an hour after the message was sent, he did not expect that the effect would be so good.  The number of watermelon delivery trucks continues to increase.

    He walked to Dadi and Yu He. They were already sweating profusely and had anxious expressions on their faces. He knew where they had seen such a formation before. When they saw so many people and cars, they were sure  All hairy.

    He comforted softly: "Don't be afraid. No matter how many people or cars there are, don't worry, you two. Count the watermelons and the money clearly. Come one by one. I'll go find Manager Li to solve the problem of the pickle jar.  , and Hao Jun will come for you two.

    He hurried to the office building to find Manager Li. When the accountants and cashiers of the supply and marketing cooperative saw him approaching, they all came to greet him and said, "Hanwen, I heard that the wages you pay to the pickle pickers are ridiculously high.  The money they earn in one month is equivalent to our salary for two years. Please arrange a job for us so that we can earn some extra money."

    He said hesitantly: "Aren't you afraid that Manager Li will say something about you?" The accountant said: "The supply and marketing cooperative has been fine recently. The two of us asked for leave, and he can't say anything about us."

    He still said a little hesitantly: "You two are my elders, and I can't bear to let you do too hard work. If you two are willing, help me collect watermelons! From eight o'clock in the morning to eight o'clock in the evening. I work every day  I¡¯ll give you a salary of ten yuan. How about that?¡±

    The two people shouted in surprise: "Hanwen, you are so courageous. One day's salary is one-third of our monthly salary. Let's go and ask for leave now." The two people ran away in a hurry.

    When he arrived at Manager Li¡¯s office, the accountant and cashier had already asked for leave.  He said softly: "You guys go to the back door of the supply and marketing cooperative and wait for me. I'll come over after I finish talking to Manager Li."

    Manager Li had already greeted him at the door, held his hand and said, "How is everything going? I heard that you give workers piece-rate wages. This is going to stir up a hornet's nest!"

    He explained to Manager Li unhurriedly: "It is impossible to mobilize their enthusiasm without piece-rate calculation. I estimate that the watermelon from our own supply and marketing cooperative will total more than two million kilograms. The pickling and processing must be completed within a month.  The work of potting watermelon seeds must be done this way. Find someone for me as soon as possible! And prepare two thousand large vats for me to use for pickling pickles."

    Manager Li thought for a while and felt that there was no other way, so let him do whatever he wanted!  Anyway, Hanwen is not an employee of the supply and marketing cooperative.  He patted his chest and promised, "I have prepared the pickle jar for you a long time ago, and I have notified the manufacturer to work overtime for production! There are many people, and when my relatives in the countryside hear about this good thing, who won't want to come!"

    He shook my manager Li's hand and said: "Thank you, Uncle Li, hurry up and call someone for me! And you notify the Public Security Bureau and send two people to help me maintain order. There are more and more cars delivering watermelons, I'm worried  Something happened!"

    Manager Li waved his hand and said, "Go and get to work! I'll call the Public Security Bureau right away."

    He walked out of Manager Li¡¯s office and came to Xu Lina¡¯s office. No one was there anymore.  He had no choice but to rush to the back door of the supply and marketing cooperative.

    When he rushed to the back door, he saw Xu Lina helping Da Di and Yu He collect watermelons.  The accountant and cashier saw him coming, trotted to him and said, "This won't work. Not only is it slow, but it will also cause crowding. Just teach us how to harvest watermelons! How many local specialties do we have to harvest every year? Don't worry.  Bar!"

    He held both of their hands with one hand and said, "Leave it to your two uncles!" He said to Dadi and Yu He, "Leave your work to the accountant and cashier! You guys go aside and have a rest first.  ."

    Once the accounting and cashier took over, not only did the efficiency speed up, but the order also became more orderly.  Xu Lina took him aside and said: "We should set up a few more acquisition points. This will not only speed up the acquisition speed, but also reduce the pressure here."

    He nodded in agreement and said trustingly: "Sister Xu, I'll leave it to you. You can set up some watermelon-producing villages!" Seeing that he trusted her so much, Xu Lina said, "Then I'll go.  By the way, a few relatives are coming here to cut watermelons, but you can arrange the time."

      He looked into her eyes and said, "Go ahead! As long as it's your relationship, I will make arrangements for it."

    Hanwen and the others worked like this for more than a month, collecting 1.6 million jins of watermelons, plus 1 million jins from the supply and marketing cooperative.  A total of 2.6 million jins were purchased.  The watermelon seeds and pickles earned a total of more than 170,000 yuan. After excluding the cost, labor expenses and various miscellaneous expenses, the net profit was more than 100,000 yuan.

    Not only that, Manager Li of the supply and marketing cooperative was praised by the county party committee for this incident.  He also became famous in the county because of this incident.
