Village chief, your township enterprise sells laser cannons?

Chapter 23: One General's Success is Built on the Bones of Ten Thousand!

After finishing his reflections, Lin Yaohai put down his teacup, pushed Lin Yaokai forward out of Lin Man's yard, closed the door, and then sat down next to Lin Man again.

Lin Yaodong, who had just turned around, also turned around at this moment, and looked at Lin Man together with Lin Yaohai.

After several minutes, Lin Yaodong put down his teacup and asked:

"The order you have is now on a timer starting tonight, and it needs to be delivered in 10 days. You need to produce at least 2 finished products every day."

"If you pay the wages now, what will you do if you can't deliver the goods and they make you pay compensation?"

"Also, I've heard Lin Yaokai say all along that laser is very valuable, but the parts needed for such products are also very valuable. You don't have a single penny right now, how are you going to buy the parts to produce it?"

"You're being completely ridiculous. All you had to do was stall, slowly drag things out, and let everyone's resentment die down. As long as nothing serious happened, you could have been transferred back to the city or province."

"Now look what's happened. If this news gets to the city or province, they'll definitely give you a bad review, saying you're too young and incapable of handling important responsibilities."

"Your life is over!"

Lin Yaodong became more and more agitated as he spoke. In the end, he stood up abruptly, pointed at Lin Man, and continued speaking. But after talking for a while, he noticed that Lin Man's expression was indifferent, as if he hadn't taken his words to heart at all.

He sighed, sat down with a helpless expression, and angrily muttered, "If I had known Lin Yaozu was like this, I should have just crushed him in a mud pit 50 years ago!"

"What nonsense are you talking about 50 years ago!" Lin Man retorted, glaring at his uncle before turning his gaze to Lin Yaohai.

"Fifth Uncle, it's 5 p.m. now. You need to organize the people from the metal processing plant to go to the factory to learn the blueprints, and then start working in two shifts."

"Remember, you need to make at least 2 per day!"

Upon receiving the accurate instructions, Lin Yaohai did not respond immediately. Instead, he took out his phone and began calculating the workload.

Five minutes later, he put down his phone and looked up: "There are 30 old-model Swiss-type lathes and 10 new-model Swiss-type lathes in the factory."

"The older models are easy to operate; one person can watch three devices."

"The new model has a faster feeding and discharging speed, so one person can monitor two machines."

"If we take all the processes into account and push them to the limit, working in two shifts, we will need at least 60 people: 28 for the day shift and 32 for the night shift."

"You need to transfer those young men from Mojiatan in the electronics factory to me, otherwise we won't have enough manpower."

60 people...

At that moment, Lin Man remembered the list of people who had left their jobs on the payroll.

He sighed and nodded:

"Okay, their salaries have been paid, so they shouldn't be too opposed. I'll call them now."

As he spoke, Lin Man got up and went upstairs, took his laptop downstairs, returned to the courtyard, opened the payroll and found the phone numbers, and started making calls.

Meanwhile, Lin Yaohai, who was standing nearby, also picked up his phone and posted an announcement in the WeChat group.

After Lin Man finished his call, Lin Yaohai also completed the work arrangements in the WeChat group. He put down his phone and nodded to Lin Man.

"I've made arrangements. We'll meet at the factory at 7 p.m. to study the blueprints first. Those on the night shift will start working immediately, while those on the day shift will go back to rest after studying."

Knowing he had plans, Lin Man's expression relaxed: "Then you can go ahead and get busy!"

"Okay!" Lin Yaohai picked up the tea on the table and drank it all in one gulp. He turned around and walked towards the gate of the courtyard. Only after he went out did he notice that Lin Yaokai had been waiting at the door.

After thinking for a moment, he walked up to Lin Yaokai and said, "Third Brother, you really can't tell right from wrong this time!"

"I didn't expect those idiots in my family..." Lin Yaokai wanted to explain, but he swallowed the words back after only saying half of them.

Seeing his conflicted expression, Lin Yaohai patted him on the shoulder again: "Don't blame Xiaoman for being angry. Hundreds of people blocked the village committee demanding money. If he hadn't been smart, there would have been a huge mess today."

"If things go wrong, he could die right there on the spot."

"It's also possible that you'll spend the rest of your life in prison!"

"If I were the one who got scammed like this, I'd be sitting in the regret chair at the police station right now."

After exchanging those few words with Lin Yaokai, Lin Yaohai walked past him and headed home.

In the courtyard, after hearing that there was no more movement outside, Lin Yaodong asked Lin Man:

"What about me? Should I continue with the work you assigned me yesterday?"

"Yes!" Lin Man typed on his laptop and turned the screen towards Lin Yaodong: "This is a satellite image of our village."

"I will arrange work for the village's forest rangers and ecological patrolmen later."

"Tomorrow morning, take two people to find them and walk around the whole village. Take pictures of all the places with lots of garbage, places that Lin Yaozu dug up, and broken bridges, roads, and ditches."

"Then I need to take stock of the fruit trees in the mountains and determine when the fruit will ripen so that I can arrange the follow-up work."

Lin Yaodong took out his phone and wrote down everything Lin Man said. After confirming that Lin Man had no further plans, he decisively picked up the tea in front of him, drank it down in one gulp, and then stood up and said, "Xiao Man, you must remember one thing: 'One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand.'"

"You have the best chance of getting promoted in our branch. When it matters, crush Lin Yaozu's branch."

"Everything that needs to be thrown away must be thrown away!"

"I know!" Lin Man closed his notebook, stood up, and followed Lin Yaodong to the door.

Turning his head, he took out his phone again and called Chen Zhenhai, the secretary of Linhai Town.

When the call connected, Chen Zhenhai's almost pleading voice came through: "Can you just calm down? I only arrived a few days before you, and I haven't even sorted out all these problems yet, so don't make things worse for me!"

"You're only remembering this now? You're not planning to use someone else to do your dirty work, are you?" Lin Man asked rhetorically. At the same time, he was also curious why Chen Zhenhai hadn't called him several hours after what happened that morning.

No sooner had he finished asking than Chen Zhenhai let out a sharp roar:

"I went to the district office this morning to run some errands and needed some manpower. I had just finished when I heard from the comrades in the district that your village was surrounded by people while watching Douyin (TikTok)."

"Someone is live-streaming the whole thing!"

"I called the town government, and because of your mess, the town's police station can only maintain basic civil affairs work now. They're short-staffed and have to transfer officers from the district."

"There were too many people, so the district contacted the city and asked them to send reinforcements."

"Once the instructions are passed down through the ranks and you've finished your work here, I thought you did a pretty good job, so I rushed back to reassure you a bit more."

"Who knew the district would detain me there and scold me for an entire afternoon, saying that all you've learned is to label people, and that I, an old comrade, should teach you a lesson. I just got out and have just grabbed a quick bite at a noodle shop outside, and I'm about to head back to town."

"My ancestors, please, just calm down, okay?"

Lin Man ignored Chen Zhenhai's pleas; he only heard Chen Zhenhai say that he had gone to ask for the person back.

He took a breath and said expressionlessly, "Secretary Chen, I need people!"

"I'm the only one in the whole village who does the work!"

"I can't even hold a Party branch meeting now!"
