Chapter 164 The Chicken Was Stolen

In the afternoon, Luo Cheng directly told Director Zhang that instead of being the director of the repair shop, he should be directly in charge of logistics. Logistics is responsible for the rear of the entire factory and requires a capable person for material statistics and procurement. Moreover, Director Zhang’s contacts as factory directors for several years are also suitable for him to be in charge of logistics.

Generally speaking, in large factories, the logistics supervisor is basically the third person in charge in the factory. Nowadays, the factory is small in scale, but if it becomes larger, the position of deputy factory director will be set up to assist the factory director in managing production. Many deputy factory directors are promoted from logistics supervisors because they are familiar with the situation of each department.

Director Zhang didn't refuse. He also felt that staying in the workshop was not enough. He had no production tasks and no car repairs. Being transferred to the logistics department can also help me get busy.

He can also be responsible for the procurement of raw materials for at least ten cube trucks. The construction of chicken and duck breeding sheds in the factory is also a logistical matter. Anyway, it's not a production matter, logistics can be taken care of.

Even sales matters are related to logistics. Logistics is mainly responsible for recording goods. People in the factory come to take things away, so logistics is not allowed to record them. In the past, there were no products and no inventory, but that will be different in the future. From now on, products from other units will be picked up by the logistics department.

After Mr. Zhang was assigned to the logistics department, the construction of the new workshop was left to him. He also had to go to the machinery factory to purchase parts for the booster pump and shock absorber. Moreover, the machinery factory also sold equipment, so it was best to first Take down the equipment for producing shock absorbers. This structure is simple.

The complete set of production equipment for the power booster pump is a bit expensive to acquire, and this thing is not used much except for the cars it produces. The shock absorber is different and easy to install. For repair shops, in It's a big deal for a certain period of time. Moreover, shock absorbers are also consumable products, so it is good to get the products and produce them yourself.

When the production of vehicles increases in the future, we will purchase a complete set of power pump equipment, screws and gears, etc. It may involve a lot of things, but we can start with some spare parts and produce them ourselves.

Anyway, if the profits are not used for production, they have to be handed over, so why waste them. In addition, the future site must be approved in advance. There is a large open space opposite the factory. Upon Luo Cheng's inquiry, Director Zhang said that the land opposite was originally planned, and it seemed that a printing factory was to be built. A few years ago, someone came to clean up the site, but then nothing happened. I don’t know if they gave up or it was postponed for some reason.

However, Director Zhang reassured Luo Cheng that this place was not a central area in the first place. The land Luo Cheng was interested in belonged to the east. The small wasteland to the north of the factory is used for breeding. The south side belongs to the main road, where there are many people commuting to and from get off work. But on the west side, that is, on the side of the factory's own dormitory, there are not many people, and the roads are also small roads.

If we want to expand, the place opposite the factory entrance is definitely the best, but if that doesn't work, we just demolish the dilapidated houses to the west. The houses belong to the state, and the street office can just rearrange them. In this era, there is no such thing as demolition fees, but there is talk of moving fees. Generally, a family has to pay several dollars for moving expenses.

Luo Cheng was preparing for a big fight, so he asked Director Zhang to apply for the land opposite first. Since the land was free of charge anyway, he also tried to apply for planning for the land to the west of the automobile manufacturing plant, which was regarded as reserved land for the factory.

After the arrangements were made, Luo Cheng and Director Zhang went downstairs to the workshop. Although they were now divided into workshop groups, they were still in the same workshop. Luo Cheng didn't come to arrange the task. The apprentices were still helping to repair the car as before.

Everyone in the assembly workshop was called out. The frame of the manual forklift was cut directly by the steel rolling mill, and the openings for the wheels were also made. In this way, the work content is simple. First, weld the wheel assembly device, and then weld the fork.

Luo Cheng asked Director Zhang to record that he had to purchase several welding machines. In addition, he had to contact the paint factory in the future. Since he had long-term cooperation with them, the planned output there had to be mentioned, and there was another paint factory with long-term cooperation. units, they can also increase in size.

This assembly workshop will also be able to recruit temporary workers who specialize in painting, but they will not be needed now. Luo Cheng has only built ten manual forklifts now. The output of this thing must be gradually increased. Even if other units want it, they cannot ask for it without limit.

This thing can only be produced according to the inventory rationing method, that is, before production is planned. You can only keep a rough inventory, just like farm tools. No one usually buys them, but don’t have any when they buy them.

Luo Cheng thought that after this thing was produced, he would take it to the steel rolling mill. There are iron guys over there, very heavy. Although there are carts in the factory, they are not as useful as his forklift. When the time comes, get him another iron pallet to make it more solid. Use their materials to earn their money, and the payments can be offset when the accounts are reconciled. This is great.

One afternoon, Luo Cheng taught them how to install a manual forklift in the workshop. Without a large stamping machine, some places could only be forced in with a hammer. Screws can only be tightened by hand. Fortunately, the wages of workers are not high. In the future, we will just need to recruit more people. There is a shortage of everything in the country now, except for working people.

Luo Cheng still installed the installation in an assembly line manner. A group of several people was responsible for a part of the installation content. In this way, the steps were dispersed, and a group of people only needed to remember a few steps. Later, the team will slowly change the installation content. As time goes by, everyone will be able to understand all the processes.

If everyone does it step by step from beginning to end, then dozens of people in the workshop may not be able to handle ten forklifts in one afternoon.

"Director Zhang, can you buy a truck?"

"You have to apply for this in advance. Unless the local unit assists in allocation, you will have to wait in line for a long time even if you can apply."

"Approximately how long will it take?"

"Some factories that are small may not be able to apply. Even if we can apply, we will have to wait for at least half a year."

"Then if we don't have our own truck, how do we usually deliver goods?"

"Just go to the freight station and dispatch a car. Spend some money."

Luo Cheng nodded. The factory director's connections could be used again. There were people he knew at both the passenger terminal and the freight terminal. Tomorrow he would go to the steel rolling mill to sell forks. If they wanted them there, he would call a truck to deliver them.

When he was about to get off work, Luo Cheng went to get the keys to the tricycle. It was cool to drive a tricycle now, but commuting by car was too high-profile. It's okay to use the bus for private use occasionally, but if you drive it every day, it will be a style issue and you won't be able to get away with it. Even a three-wheeler is actually a bit high-profile, but if you don't have a bicycle, you can drive it for a while. It is mainly assembled from scrapped cars, and there is an excuse for being investigated, saying it is testing. It's not specifically bought from a factory for office use.

Longyang Town, commune.

Today all the chickens and ducks were brought back and divided, and tomorrow twenty pigs can come back at once. After all, they are not big pigs. Pigs weighing thirty to forty pounds each are just bigger than piglets. They have to go to the auto repair shop tomorrow, and someone from the repair shop will have to take them there.

To sign a recycling agreement, for twenty pigs, at least fifteen large pigs must be recycled to the livestock factory, and the brigade can keep five for itself. Of course, if it's all given to the livestock factory, others will also recycle it. If there is not enough food to eat, the people in the brigade are reluctant to kill pigs to share the pork, so they must have sold them in exchange for food.

But at this time Luo Baotian was sitting at Luo Wen's house, looking a little ugly.

Last night, several households in the brigade had their chickens stolen, and the stolen villagers came to the brigade. Households in villages where chickens were stolen have human footprints next to the chicken sheds. Based on the footprints, the approximate direction of the thief can be found.

This villager didn't want to work anymore. The chickens were adopted, but it was agreed from the beginning that if the chickens were gone, they would have to pay compensation. If the chickens were raised to death, the dead chickens would be handed over, even if they were not paid. Because everyone is already poor, they may not be able to afford the compensation even if they die. But you have to hand it over even if you die. If you don't hand it over, chaos will occur. Those who didn't die might be killed on purpose and then kept for themselves to eat.

But the chickens were stolen, and the villagers couldn't afford to pay compensation. Moreover, if the chickens were stolen, do they want to keep them? They would no longer give them chickens to raise. People can earn income by raising chickens and laying eggs. What should they do? They are all in the same brigade, and if others have him or not, they will definitely not be able to accept it in their hearts.

Luo Baotian naturally planned to investigate and go directly to the police station. There was only one police station in the whole town and there were not many police officers, only six or seven. Responsible for the security of the entire township.

But towns and villages are generally very good, and crimes rarely occur. Now, some ordinary disputes are settled in the village or in the brigade.

Luo Baotian was going to see the police, but he was stopped on the way. There were several brigades up and down the town. And this thing must have been done by jealous villagers. If you go to the police station and steal a chicken, it is a small matter. When the time comes, who will be found? People will still raise their heads. You can just check it in private. If you are found, you will be punished with re-education. Come on.

In the end, Feng Zhenchang came forward and took some money from the commune and compensated it to the third brigade. There were eleven chickens missing in total. Each chicken was counted as one and a half yuan, so he was given sixteen and a half yuan.

One dollar and a half apiece, calculated based on the price of the chickens Luo Baotian bought at the poultry factory, he would definitely not lose money, but that was not how the accounts were calculated. Without a poultry ticket, if you have money, you can buy a chicken that lays eggs for 1.5 yuan in the city. This chicken was brought to lay eggs, not bought to be eaten. If you really want to buy chicken, without a ticket, you have to pay at least three times the price in the Pigeon Market. Now you can buy a pound of rice in the Pigeon Market for 50 or 60 cents, and a pound of stick noodles can be bought for 20 or 30 cents.

The most important thing is that this time there are only eleven missing, and we can still find a way to get other people to adjust them, find some that can survive at home, and adjust one out per family. But who can guarantee that this will not happen again tonight? Even if it doesn't happen today, it will happen tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

So Luo Baotian planned to organize a patrol team to patrol at night. Anyway, several teams and villages were almost connected together. There are not many small roads, so Luo Wen’s family borrowed a flashlight. I usually use kerosene lamps when patrolling. If I see someone, I use a flashlight to chase them.

If he catches him and doesn't take him to the village, he won't call him Luo Baotian.

But the problem now is, just to prevent people from stealing chickens, if we film and patrol people every night, when will it end?

What's more important is that now everyone in the town is blaming the third brigade. They say it's true that everyone wants to raise it together, but the third brigade doesn't agree. This is obviously because they want to see the people in other brigades unable to survive and refuse to help.

Now Luo Baotian really wants to make a deal with Feng Zhenchang. At first, Zhenchang suggested that everyone do it together, but when he didn't do it, he said he couldn't do it. Luo Cheng didn't want to help the entire mayor, he just wanted to help I am from the Luo family. The situation has been told to Zhenchang. Now that Feng Zhenchang is a good person and has accepted these rumors outside, he will not come out to avoid the rumors and make the matter clear to everyone.

When Luo Baotian told the truth, the villagers in other brigades didn't believe it at all. The feed, chickens and ducks were all obtained in the name of the brigade. Anyway, the villagers thought that your third brigade had a way out, but it was I don’t want everyone to live a good life too.

Tomorrow she has to go to the city to pull pigs again. Luo Cheng's mother plans to go to the city to see her son and daughter, and plans to bring her daughter-in-law with her. She will have a companion on the way, mainly because her daughter-in-law Qin Ru has not been allowed to go out in the past few days. Her natal family is not from the third brigade, and she is criticized every time she goes out, saying that she has forgotten her natal village after marrying into the third brigade.
