As soon as Song Yunhui arrived at Xiao Lei’s house, he smelled the odor caused by industrial production and said, “Is this the odor of a wool spinning factory?”
However, Zhao Shucheng had been living in the abalone for a long time and did not smell the stench. When he heard Song Yunhui say this, he realized why he always felt something was wrong in the village.
At the beginning, when Zhao Shucheng was building a wool spinning factory, he did not care about the issue of sewage treatment because he purchased complete sets of equipment. In addition, he was used to the smell of animal feces in rural areas, so he didn't pay much attention to this issue.
After hearing Song Yunhui say this, I realized that the equipment of this era did not have the function of sewage treatment and needed to build a sewage treatment plant separately.
"Yes, after the establishment of the wool mill, the smell of sewage after the rabbit hair was treated."
"Be careful, this gas is toxic and can cause damage to the lungs. The wastewater discharged can also cause harm to the human body. Drinking it may cause cancer."
Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "I didn't pay attention if you didn't say it. It seems that when you are in production in the future, villagers must wear masks and add sewage treatment equipment."
"Yes, brother-in-law, I didn't expect you to know the problem of wastewater treatment. But you are right to do this, otherwise the sewage will flow into the river and become polluted by then, and no one in the downstream will be able to drink water."
Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "Yes, I don't consider this problem now. It will cost more money to deal with it when there is a problem. The human body is already damaged, and it will be too late to do so."
However, when Zhao Shucheng raised this question at the village committee, he was not understood by the villagers and felt that it was nothing to be a little polluted. Anyway, it would be fine if he didn't delay production.
"Dongbao, is it necessary? I see that other factories have no sewage treatment, and nothing happened?"
"Yes, this sewage treatment equipment is not cheap, and it costs a lot of money every year, why bother?"
Zhao Shucheng waved his hand and said, "Everyone heard from me that I didn't pay attention to this problem before, but now we have to pay attention. Haven't you noticed that after the sewage is discharged into the river, there are no fish in the river, and even loaches are gone? But I still remember that before there was no wool mill, we often went to the river to catch fish and eat shrimps and give ourselves tooth sacrifices."
"Even if there isn't it, it's nothing?"
"How can it be nothing? This fish cannot survive. Do you think people will be fine if they drink the water here? Even if our Xiao Lei family has tap water and does not drink the water here, but if people downstream drink water, don't you think we have a responsibility? It is wrong to do this and will be retribution."
However, Zhao Shucheng was unable to convince the village committee, let alone the people in the village. The group of people argued for a long time, but no agreement was finally reached.
However, Zhao Shucheng knew that if pollution is not controlled now, it will only be more troublesome in the future, so he had to introduce sewage treatment equipment if he was arbitrary.
When the others saw Zhao Shucheng like this, they hesitated for a while, and finally decided to do what Zhao Shucheng said. After all, they have always done what Zhao Shucheng said, and they should not be wrong now.
However, there are not many manufacturers of this kind of equipment in China, and most of them are small enterprises. They are not as weathered and the equipment is not the most advanced. Zhao Shucheng can only purchase foreign sewage treatment equipment.
However, this purchase is not that easy, after all, it requires foreign exchange. Although the Xiao Lei family can earn a large amount of foreign exchange every year, this money is not something they can use casually, and most of it has been exchanged for RMB. Now, purchasing equipment requires applying or even queuing.
Zhao Shucheng didn't want to wait for a long time, so he simply went directly to the province and applied to the Finance Department in charge of foreign exchange. After the next foreign exchange money from Xiao Lei's family comes in, he will give priority to Xiao Lei's family.
The other party also knew that the Xiao Lei family had made too many contributions over the years, so they reluctantly agreed, but this was only once and they could not make an exception in the future.
Zhao Shucheng agreed readily, quickly contacted the customer, urged a deposit and payment for the goods, and then asked someone to order sewage treatment equipment.
After Xiao Lei’s sewage treatment equipment was purchased, the sewage treatment plant was established to specifically treat sewage from several factories. Zhao Shucheng also began to pay attention to the environmental protection issues of Xiao Lei’s family, especially at the farm. The previous rabbit urine was basically directly connected to the side by the pipes of the farm, and the rabbit urine raised by residents’ homes was directly air-dried in the nest, and the rabbit feces were collected and fertilized.
However, Zhao Shucheng was determined to change this situation because he knew that directly fertilizing rabbit feces would be detrimental to the absorption of crops, and it would be better after fermentation.
Moreover, it is a waste to apply fertilizer directly in this way, so it is better to build a large biogas pool directly. After all, since the Xiao Lei family has been rebuilt, the rabbit breeding in the village has basically been in the same place. Pipes can be used to connect each breeding farm to centrally process sewage and feces. Another thing is that the biogas in the biogas pool can also contribute to the village, killing multiple birds.
Of course, at the beginning, the villagers didn't understand and thought that Zhao Shucheng would do this to be an unnecessary move. However, after a month, the biogas began to be produced, and even supplied the villagers' daily cooking and cafeteria, it suddenly became really fragrant.
After all, they don’t have to pick up firewood by themselves or even buy coal, which saves a lot of money at once. Although the people of the Xiao Lei family have long been missing this little money, if they can save a little, they can use the money elsewhere, which is also great.
Of course, the sewage generated by Xiao Lei’s existing factories is just a sprinkling of water for the sewage treatment plant, so it is often in a semi-start state.
Zhao Shucheng naturally couldn't let the sewage treatment plant be idle. The fruit trees planted in the past few years have begun to blossom and bear fruit one after another. After the future output has increased significantly, with the fruit trees in the county, the time to set up a canned factory has come.
The old branch secretary was originally in charge of the orchard with the old monkey. He was a little surprised to hear that Zhao Shucheng was preparing to set up a canning factory to specialize in processing fruits from the orchards in the village.
"Dongbao, is this necessary? Our fruits can be sold directly to the outside world. Why bother this time?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, that's not what we say. Our fruits can indeed be sold to the public, but the price may not be very high. Besides, you also know that when we planted fruit trees a few years ago, people from other villages, even the whole county, and nearby counties and cities also planted them."
"It is said that things are rare and expensive. If fruit trees are planted on such a large scale, the price will not be higher at that time. If we want to increase the price, we either sell fruits to other places or can only sell them in the province at a low price. This is not cost-effective."
"I've learned about the canned food factory before. This canned fruit still has a good sales abroad."
The old branch secretary looked at Zhao Shucheng suspiciously and said, "What are you saying? They are sick. Instead of eating fresh fruits, they eat canned fruits?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "There is actually a reason. Canned food was supplied to the crew at the beginning. After all, people have been wandering on the sea for too long, and there is no supply of fruits and vegetables in the middle. They will suffer from scurvy due to lack of vitamin C. On the contrary, after canned vegetables and fruits, this situation is greatly reduced."
"Later, after the cost of canned production decreased, canned food became a regular product for many foreign families. The price is low and it can shorten the time for preparing food, so it is very popular among foreigners. Moreover, due to geographical reasons, many foods are transported to the local area and are damaged by a lot of food, so the price is not as low as canned food. In addition, foreign industrialization is much earlier than us, and they think time is money. In order to save time for eating and cooking, various canned foods have become popular foods."
"A few years ago, when we couldn't eat fresh fruits, we also took canned fruits as gifts, and we often couldn't bear to eat them? Besides, our country has a wealth of resources and can collect all kinds of foods and can be self-sufficient. We have always paid attention to color, fragrance and taste. Therefore, we rarely eat this processed food, but instead like to eat what we make ourselves or fresh."
The old branch secretary hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then where will you sell it when you produce it?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "I have already thought about this, and it is to transport it to the country in our north."
The old branch secretary looked at Zhao Shucheng in surprise and said, "Dongbao, you can't do such a thing for a little money. Have you forgotten Zhenbao Island?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "Old Secretary, of course I haven't forgotten it, but I have to look forward to everything. I have been reading and reading newspapers all these years. As early as 1982, the other party expressed kindness and even prepared to restore the relationship. However, our country did not look at what they said, but how they did, so they never took action. In addition, because of the death of the supreme leader, they fell into a period of fluctuation in the power of the top leaders, so they did not take action."
"But this situation has been happening since Old Gore came to power some time ago, and they have adjusted their attitude towards us and even started negotiations, and business has been loosened."
"I think this is the best time. If we can seize this opportunity and ship the canned food produced in our factory, we will definitely make a lot of money. Of course, I am not for the money, but to see if we can exchange it for better things."
"What?" the old secretary asked curiously.
Zhao Shucheng said: "I think the production of our Xiao Lei family is a bit too dependent on agricultural products, but this production model can be replicated and even learned. So I am going to get some heavy industry stuff to widen the gap with others."
"Can this work?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "Actually, I'm a little unsure, but if I don't try it, I'm unwilling to accept it. After all, the development of the Xiao Lei family can see the future at a glance. This is not what I hope. I hope there will be greater changes and even let our industrial products go abroad, rather than only using agricultural products for foreign exchange."
"Oh, I'm old, I can only give you a blow. Everything depends on how you make it."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, you are the Dinghai Shenjian here. If you were not for you, I wouldn't dare to go out and go out. However, if you really get heavy industrial production equipment, you may not be placed in Xiao Lei's house. Because of the inconvenience of transportation, I won't mention it, and even the raw materials will not be easily obtained."
"But if you don't put it here, where are you going to put it?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "Actually, do you remember Director Li, who ordered steel bars in our prefabricated plate factory before?"
"Of course I remember this, what does it have to do with him?"
"He has always wanted to expand his steel bar factory, and even wanted to go from iron ore processing to steel production in one step, but due to their funds and equipment, it has never been able to be done. But if I can really get such equipment this time, then we can cooperate."
The old branch secretary hesitated after hearing this and said, "But how can we cooperate? Who will be the main and who will be the auxiliary at that time?"
Zhao Shucheng was a little hesitant when he heard this. After all, this is still very critical to future cooperation. In fact, since last year, private enterprises have been acquiring and merging state-owned enterprises, but village collective enterprises like Xiao Lei Family may have never been merged with state-owned enterprises.
"Uncle, this will take specific discussion at that time. After all, this merger of the company is not a trivial matter, and it may also involve the province. After all, if we really cooperate to build a factory, it will be a large steel factory, covering an area, the source of workers, etc., which are all issues that need to be considered."
"That's it, okay, you can do that canned factory first, and then check the situation. You must be careful."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "I understand, uncle, you and the old monkey have to keep a close eye on the orchard. We will make a fortune from this in the future."
"I know, don't worry!"
After hearing Zhao Shucheng's plan, Song Yunping hesitated for a moment and said, "Can this work?"
"It must be done, and I not only want to get canned fruits, but also canned meat in the future, such as rabbit meat, canned pork, etc."
"Canned pork? It's hard to buy pork now. Will there be enough canned food at that time?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Of course it's not about buying pork, but about our Xiao Lei family running a farm and raising pigs on a large scale. We eat or sell those pigs in the water by ourselves. The pork can be processed and canned, and we earn foreign exchange."
"Dongbao, you are so awesome!"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Didn't you know if I'm so powerful or not? By the way, where is that brat?"
"Go to mom's place."
"That's great. Today we can finally live in the world of two people. This brat is here, so we haven't been intimate for a long time."
"You are all the children's fathers, why are you still like this..."
