"Pay close attention to agricultural production, vigorously develop industry, advance industry and agriculture side by side, focus on joint management, and move forward quickly to everything."

This is something that has been set as a top priority by departments at all levels across the country.

Only by improving agricultural production can the masses have food to eat; and by vigorously developing industry, can we move quickly towards the highest goal.

There are currently more than 3,000 counties in the country.

These include special plans such as banners, clans, and districts that are equivalent to county-level administrative plans. They are all striving to develop the county economy and strive to significantly improve the living standards of the broad masses of the people.

The "Industrial Office" department came into being under this background.

Luo Xuan's new position is "director [acting] of the Industrial Office of Shilipu Commune, Zhimi County".

At the same time, Luo Xuan naturally had to step down from his position as "warehousekeeper of the Shilipu production team".

It's a pity that the entire Shilipu production team members and cadres all know that the hole in the warehouse of their own production team is probably a bit big.

Large or at least small families, even if they sell out all their belongings, they can't make up even a small amount.

Therefore, in the Shilipu production team, no one dared to take over the position of warehouse keeper in the production team, which is said to be a fat job, but in fact it is a big troublesome position.

In the end, Luo Xuan secretly took on the job of warehouse keeper.

"County economy" has a characteristic: the prominent pursuit of the word "whole".

If other people have fertilizer plants, we must have them too. If other counties have machinery plants? Then we can’t do without this.

Now almost every county is working hard to open wineries, brick factories, cement factories, furniture factories, textile factories, silk reeling factories, lumber factories, nitrogen fertilizer factories, foundries, and glass factories.

In order to meet the energy needs of these factories and enterprises, various counties are even building steel plants, thermal power stations, and hydropower stations with huge investments.

Regardless of this period, it has been 20 years since we entered the new society.

In fact, the ideological concept of pursuing "doing everything without asking for help" is still very strong in our hearts.

In fact, this stems from the consciousness of small farmers: as long as something can be produced at home, they will never spend money to buy it outside.

——Even if the workmanship is rough, even if the energy consumption is huge and the cost is high, we don’t even care if the quality is poor.

This is derived from a mentality: first solve the problem of having and not having, and resolutely prevent the wealth from flowing to other people's fields.

In everyone's understanding, only when the county economy is well developed can the backbone be strengthened: as long as there are these factories in your county, you can not only increase fiscal revenue.

It can also solve the employment problem of the increasing number of unemployed young people who have just entered society.

Only if it achieves "complete categories".

Only then can it be considered "self-sufficient" and in line with the spirit of "self-reliance".

As for these industrial and mining enterprises, don’t ask about their economic benefits, just ask them: they are very good!

——I haven’t seen any factory, no matter whether it smokes or not. The workers there are guaranteed to receive monthly wages, not a penny less.

This is enough to prove that all factories and mining enterprises have very good economic benefits.

[Actually, the profits of those companies with good economic returns are used to subsidize those companies that are losing money.]

[The ideas of the leaders of the commune are very simple and simple, so simple that people don’t know how to evaluate their behavior.

What they are thinking is: We must pursue fairness and let everyone have food to eat.

Whether a company makes money or not, it must at least ensure that workers have enough to eat.]

If any industrial and mining enterprise in your county produces unsalable products,

Then hold a meeting and then issue a document: Similar products produced in other counties and cities are not allowed to enter our county.

With this protective cover stamped with a seal, can we still sell our own products?

snort!!

It is said that there are three things a new official needs to do when taking office.

The first thing Luo Xuan did when he took office as "Director of the Industrial Office" was not to plan to open a new factory.

Instead, we took drastic measures to abolish some existing inefficient enterprises in Shilipu Commune.

On this day, in the office of the deputy director of the commune, there were sounds of objects being thrown and enamel teapots being smashed.

What followed was an angry roar: "What the hell! What a fool! What a fool!!!"

Lao Liang, deputy director of the commune, was originally in charge of the industrial and mining enterprises affiliated to the commune.

Moreover, Deputy Director Liang didn't like Luo Xuan in the first place: This thorny person who doesn't listen to greetings at such a young age has now become the director of the Industrial Office?

Become your colleague?

Not to mention anything else, just walking in and out of the commune every day, you can't avoid bumping into each other.

Thinking about Deputy Director Liang, I feel awkward!

"Comrade Luo Xuan, do you know how to do grassroots management work?"

As soon as Luo Xuan came up, the three axes fell on the heads of three enterprises: "Shilipu Commune Sand Factory", "Agricultural Tools and Iron Factory", and "Timber Factory".

Deputy Director Liang couldn't bear it anymore and was so angry that he rushed straight into Luo Xuan's office, smashed the pot and banged the table and asked sternly: "These three factories are old factories that have been in operation for more than 10 years.

The cadres and workers there are dedicated and dedicated.

Others have devoted their youth to their beloved companies, and now you actually plan to withdraw these factories? Why?!"

"That's not called a factory. To be precise, it can only be called a small workshop.

Moreover, it is still the kind of small workshop that relies on the commune’s financial resources to continuously provide them with blood transfusions to survive.”

Luo Xuan sat on the chair, not paying attention to the scolding of Deputy Director Liang, who was blushing and thick-necked with anger: "Deputy Director Liang, we are not just two men in the village arguing.

We are discussing work matters, can you sit down and talk about it carefully?"

"I'm not in the mood!"

Deputy Director Liang asked angrily: "Comrade Luo Xuan, let me ask you a question.

Have you considered the feelings of the workers in these three factories? How much sweat and effort did the cadres and workers in these factories put in to build these factories?"

Luo Xuan asked calmly: "Then, have they finally completed these small workshops? How much profit do they turn over to the commune's finance every year?

Not a penny!

Not only that, these three factories have to allocate a large amount of special funds from the commune's finances every year to subsidize them, pay them wages, and support the idle people."

Feeding leisure people?

This extremely arrogant young man actually dared to call the cadres and workers in these three factories "idlers"??

Deputy Director Liang was completely shocked by these words.

During this period, state-owned units belonging to the same county and the same commune did not matter whether the other unit's economic benefits were good or bad.

All cadres and workers refer to each other as "comrade".

Call the other party's work unit "brother unit"

When everyone looks at each other, they don't judge each other based on their unit economic performance or salary level.

But in a way: I am also an employee of a state-owned unit; others, like us, are the breadwinners!

If the performance of a certain factory is really poor, what does it matter to an individual?

Anyway, the financial affairs of these cadres and workers will be taken care of till the end.

If a certain factory is half-dead, the cadres and employees working there won't care too much: at worst, they can just transfer themselves to another prosperous state-owned enterprise to work in the factory.

An iron camp and flowing soldiers.

If this camp is ruined, just move to another place. Anyway, your salary level is based on your working years, your technical title, and your administrative level.

What a big deal?!

Deputy Director Liang let out a long breath and said, "Huh——".

Then he slowly sat on the chair and looked at Luo Xuan, who didn't know the heights of the sky, with cold eyes.

The seriousness of the situation now has exceeded Deputy Director Liang's imagination, so he is not as angry and furious as before.

"Comrade Luo Xuan, I can understand you, a young man who is eager to achieve results as soon as possible!

I tend to be in a hurry when I start doing things, so I don’t think so comprehensively, which is understandable.”

Deputy Director Liang stared into Luo Xuan's eyes and warned seriously: "But have you ever thought about what will happen to the livelihoods of hundreds of cadres and workers if these three factories are abolished?"

Luo Xuan picked up the report on the table and handed it over: "How can there be hundreds of cadres and employees?

There are 17 employees in the sand foundry, 9 craftsmen in the farm tools and ironworks factory, and 29 in the lumber factory.

These three factories have a total of 55 active cadres, employees, and retired personnel."

“That is also a matter of livelihood for dozens of cadres and workers, and involves their emotional issues!!

Comrade Luo Xuan, please pay more attention to your methods when you speak and do things in the future."

Deputy Director Liang did not look at the report, but said coldly: "Idle people? Use such words to describe our cadres and workers? Comrade Luo Xuan, this kind of thinking of yours is very dangerous."

"Danger? Haha"
