Si Jin ignored the Liu family's affairs and came to the county town again, ready to find a way out.

It is indeed more difficult to develop in this era than in ancient times.

She could only try her luck and see if there was any way to make a living that she could do temporarily.

Arriving at the gate of the match factory, Si Jin frowned slightly.

The door of this factory really looks too plain!

In fact, to say it is simple is a euphemism. To be precise, it should be simple.

Even shabby.

A county-level state-owned unit has two iron doors with a width of just over two meters. The black paint on them has fallen off, making it look rusty and miserable.

Si Jin felt half-hearted, but he still went up to ask.

"Uncle! I am a villager from the Xiaohe Brigade of Xiangyang Commune. I came to the factory to find the leader. This is my letter of introduction. Do you think it can be convenient?"

The guard, an old man with gray hair, glanced at Si Jin, looked at her outfit, took the letter of introduction and looked at it carefully.

After a while, "Are you looking for our factory director?"

What he didn't say was that for a countryman and a pretty little girl, what could he do to the director of their factory?

Besides, he knew that their factory director was transferred from other places and had no local relatives at all.

What business could this lesbian have with him?

The old man's eyes were not abrupt, his words were normal, and Si Jin answered easily.

"As you know, the brigade down below has been having a hard time these past two years, so I thought I'd come here to see if any of our fellow workers need help. We can also earn a little money and buy some salt, kerosene, and the like for our homes."

It turned out that he came here to look for work, and the guard was half relieved.

"Then why aren't you from your brigade?"

He thought to himself: Send a female comrade over. Does the Xiaohe Brigade have other intentions?

Beauty plan?

Knowing that many people are interested in the jobs sent out by their factory, they specially arranged for a young lesbian to come over?

Si Jin didn't realize that the guard had thought so much, and she was still explaining with a smile.

"There's not much work in the fields. The captains are busy with matters in the fields. We can't delay production, right? Let me ask if I can speak well."

The guard uncle asked a few more questions, and Si Jin answered them one by one before registering the information and putting it into the factory.

After finally finding the factory director in the workshop, Si Jin gave a frothy speech, promising and singing praises, but the factory director still did not agree to give Si Jin a job.

With no other choice, Si Jin had no choice but to use his special skill and draw a set of product design drawings for the match factory on the spot.

"Director, let me tell you, we are a manufacturer of matches. If necessary, our efficiency can be improved. Look at this picture with the twelve zodiac animals and the extended matchstick. It looks high-end and elegant at first glance. And the cost is low. It's much better than the original one, but it looks good..."

Si Jin Bala Bala, even though he said he was done, he just got an outsourcing job.

3000 matchboxes. If the paste is good, we will talk about it next time. If the paste is not good, if there are many mistakes, you will have to pay money.

Walking out of the match factory carrying a large sack, Si Jin looked at the sky speechlessly.

This was probably the most difficult negotiation in her life.

Little did they know that after she left, the director of the match factory paced back and forth in the office, and then called a meeting with all leaders.

Si Jin brought them more than just a picture, but a new way of thinking.

Many state-owned factory directors in the early 60s were non-professionals. They neither understood technology nor were specialized managers. Many of them were civilians from the army and were established cadres.

Coupled with the implementation of unified purchasing and marketing in China, it is often difficult for them to innovate and lack the spirit of research and development.

Therefore, by the late 80s and early 90s, many large manufacturers went bankrupt after consuming all their capital, leaving only a handful of companies that could continue to operate.

In fact, this drawback has existed from the beginning.

Si Jin carefully returned to Xiaohe Village with a large bag of things, attracting many people in the fields to stand on tiptoe and watch.

Instead of going home, she went directly to the brigade headquarters.

"These are what I brought back from the match factory..." Si Jin told the team leader the whole story of going to the match factory, and finally added: "You can choose two people to come with me. If we do well this time, we can also There will be a next time…”

Starting from these 3000 small matchboxes, Xiaohe Brigade slowly embarked on the road of processing and production.

At first it was a matchbox, but later Si Jin found two more sewing machines and started a clothing cooperative in the name of the brigade.

The clothing design and tailoring skills learned in the previous plane also came into use. In just three years, a small village-run workshop became famous.

We have also reached cooperation with large factories in provincial capitals and various supply and marketing cooperatives to produce batches of popular clothing.

He even created a brand belonging to Xiaohe Village and became the first factory director in the village election.

In such a special era as the 60s, Xiaohe Brigade became a model village under key protection in the province.

With the rise of the clothing industry, the living standards of villagers have made a qualitative leap.

With Si Jin's efforts, a school consisting of five red-tiled houses was built.

In the village, two high school students and two junior high school students who were good at studies but could not find jobs due to their rural household registration became teachers.

The principal is concurrently served by the village party secretary.

Because there is no need for financial allocations from above, controls are relatively relaxed.

The schools in Xiaohe Village were not completely affected by the great movement, and they learned the necessary knowledge step by step.

During the most intense years of the movement, Si Jin proposed reducing the size of the factory, but the villagers almost unanimously rejected it.

Because the villagers of Xiaohe Village are very united, they survived the absurd years without any danger.

A few years later, Xiaohe Village no longer has adobe houses as far as the eye can see, but rows of well-proportioned tile-roofed houses.

Some families were temporarily unable to build red brick houses, so they also replaced their thatched roofs with tiles.

The streets are no longer the messy mess they used to be. Potatoes and sweet potatoes, which are both practical and beautiful, are planted on both sides of the road.

Although the road is still dirt, it has been repaired and is very smooth, making people feel relaxed and happy at a glance.

Purchasers from supply and marketing cooperatives who come to place orders often praise this.

Over and over again, the construction of Xiaohe Village actually attracted the exploration of newspaper reporters.

Facing the meticulous reporters' questions, Si Jinyan smiled.

"I used to be just an ordinary rural woman. I had experienced an unfortunate marriage. I also thought about enduring it, living in it, or even giving up my life. But I have a group of family members who love me and are willing to accept me. Folks, because of them, I traveled all over the county just to find a way out so that everyone could have a chance to live a better life."

The reporter was a little dissatisfied, but that was obviously not what he asked.

Si Jin didn't like those fake hymns, so he continued:

"In fact, rural construction is very simple. It's just about finding ways to live a prosperous life. I keep learning for this. Fortunately, the support of the villagers and the attention of the leaders of the brigade commune are indispensable for achieving today's results."

She talked eloquently, and gradually, the reporter listened more and more seriously.
