Chapter 411 New Challenges and Breakthroughs on the Road to Development
Since the weaving factory started operation, Cuigu Village has become increasingly busy.
Early in the morning, before the first ray of sunlight fully illuminated the village, Wang Dashan had already appeared at the weaving factory.
The workers came one after another, greeting Wang Dashan with simple smiles on their faces.
"Secretary Wang, you're here so early!"
Old Zhang said as he walked into the weaving factory.
Wang Dashan responded with a smile: "Lao Zhang, it's not too late for you! It's a new day, so you have to work harder."
In the weaving factory, workers skillfully picked up bamboo and began to make various bamboo baskets.
Wang Dashan walked around the workshop, carefully checking the production process of each handicraft.
He noticed that the patterns on the bamboo basket woven by a young worker were not very neat, so he walked up to him.
"Xiao Li, look, if the lines here were tighter, the bamboo basket would be stronger and better looking."
Wang Dashan picked up a semi-finished product and gave instructions patiently.
Xiao Li scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Secretary Wang, I just started learning and I'm not very proficient yet. Thanks for reminding me."
Wang Dashan patted Xiao Li on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, take your time and practice more. Our knitting factory has just started, so we can't be careless about quality. Only by making good products can we open up the market."
At this moment, the village accountant rushed in and said, "Secretary Wang, something bad has happened. The bank said there may be some problems with the loan approval."
Wang Dashan frowned slightly: "What's going on? Didn't we submit the information as required?"
The accountant panted and said, "They said that our village's repayment capacity assessment needs some additional materials, and the loan quota is a bit tight right now."
Wang Dashan pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the bank now and have a good talk with them."
Wang Dashan rushed to the bank and found the staff member responsible for loan approval.
"Hello, comrade. I am Wang Dashan, the Party Secretary of Cuigu Village. Can you help me think of a way to get a loan for my village?"
Wang Dashan said sincerely.
The staff member looked embarrassed and said, "Secretary Wang, we are not deliberately making things difficult for you. The information you submitted is not detailed enough about the forecast of the knitting factory's future revenue. In addition, the loan quota is indeed limited now, so we have to give priority to projects with strong repayment ability."
Wang Dashan hurriedly explained: "Comrade, although our village's weaving factory has just started, it has a good prospect for development. Our village is rich in bamboo resources, and the villagers' craftsmanship is also good, so the product quality is definitely guaranteed. In addition, we have already discussed cooperation intentions with several surrounding supply and marketing cooperatives, so sales will not be a problem."
After listening to Wang Dashan's words, the staff thought for a while and said, "How about this, Secretary Wang, go back and supplement and improve the detailed plan and profit forecast of the weaving factory, and submit it to us as soon as possible, and we will apply to our superiors."
Wang Dashan quickly thanked him: "Thank you so much, comrade. We will prepare the information as soon as possible."
After coming out of the bank, Wang Dashan rushed back to the village without stopping.
He called together village cadres and key personnel from the weaving factory to discuss how to improve the information.
"Everyone should think of ways to explain the advantages of our weaving factory and future development plans more clearly so that the bank can trust our repayment ability."
Wang Dashan said.
Teacher Liu pushed up his glasses and said, "I think we can list our raw material costs and labor costs in detail, and then reasonably predict the product's selling price and sales volume based on market conditions. This way, we can calculate the profit more accurately."
Xiao Li also put forward his own idea: "Secretary Wang, we can also attach the letter of intent for cooperation with the supply and marketing cooperative to prove that we have sales channels."
Wang Dashan listened and nodded repeatedly: "Everyone's opinions are very good. Let's prepare the materials according to these ideas. We must seize this opportunity to make the weaving factory develop smoothly."
With everyone's joint efforts, the information was quickly supplemented and submitted to the bank.
While waiting for approval, Wang Dashan felt a heavy weight on his heart.
While continuing to pay attention to the production of the weaving factory, he organized the villagers to carry out winter management of agricultural production.
"Fellow villagers, although it is winter now, we cannot relax our farmland management. We must clean up the weeds in the fields and keep the fruit trees warm to lay a good foundation for next year's harvest."
Wang Dashan said at the villagers' meeting.
A villager asked: "Secretary Wang, how do you keep the fruit trees warm in such a cold weather?"
Wang Dashan patiently explained: "We can wrap the trunks of the fruit trees with straw to keep them warm. In addition, we can lay a layer of mulch in the orchard to maintain soil temperature and prevent weeds from growing."
Just when the villagers were busy with winter agricultural management, good news finally came from the bank: the loan was approved!
"Secretary Wang, the loan has been approved!"
The accountant ran to the knitting factory excitedly and shouted loudly.
Wang Dashan clenched his fists excitedly: "Great! Now our weaving factory has the funds to expand production."
When the workers in the weaving factory heard the news, they also cheered.
With the loan, the weaving factory purchased new equipment, expanded its production scale, and hired professional technicians to guide workers to improve their weaving skills.
With the development of weaving factories, the quality and output of products have been significantly improved.
Wang Dashan began to actively contact more sales channels. He not only established long-term cooperative relationships with surrounding supply and marketing cooperatives, but also took his products to participate in material exchange meetings held in the county.
At the material exchange meeting, Cuigu Village's weaving handicrafts attracted the attention of many merchants.
"Boss, this bamboo basket is so finely crafted. How much is it?"
asked a businessman from out of town.
Wang Dashan introduced enthusiastically: "Our bamboo baskets are all handmade, and the quality is guaranteed. As for the price, if you purchase in bulk, we can give you a discount."
After some negotiations, Wang Dashan successfully signed cooperation agreements with several foreign businesses.
This not only opens up a broader market for the weaving factory, but also brings new development opportunities to Cuigu Village.
However, just when Wang Dashan was pleased with the development of the weaving factory, new problems arose in the village's agricultural production.
The continuous low temperature weather caused some crops to suffer frost damage, and the branches of some fruit trees were also broken by the freeze.
After Wang Dashan learned the news, he rushed to the farmland and orchard as soon as possible.
Looking at the damaged crops and fruit trees, he felt very heavy.
"Fellow villagers, don't panic, let's think of a solution together."
Wang Dashan comforted the villagers.
He immediately contacted the county's agricultural experts and asked them for help.
After agricultural experts arrived at the village, they carefully inspected the damage and provided remedial measures.
"Secretary Wang, these affected crops need to be pruned and fertilized in time to enhance their ability to resist cold. Broken branches of fruit trees should also be cleared as soon as possible and protected with protective agents to prevent pests and diseases from invading."
Agricultural experts said.
Wang Dashan organized the villagers to quickly launch self-rescue operations in accordance with the guidance of experts.
Everyone braved the severe cold and worked busy in the fields and orchards.
"Lao Zhang, this protective agent must be applied evenly, without any omissions."
While working, Wang Dashan reminded the villagers around him.
After several days of efforts, the affected crops and fruit trees were effectively treated.
Although this frost damage caused certain losses to the village's agricultural production, the losses were minimized through the joint efforts of Wang Dashan and the villagers.
After solving the problem of agricultural production, Wang Dashan devoted his energy to the development of the weaving factory.
He knows very well that Cui Gu Village still has a long way to go in its development and will face various challenges in the future, but as long as everyone unites as one, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome.
As the New Year approaches, Cui Gu Village is filled with a festive atmosphere.
The weaving factory received more and more orders, and the villagers' income also increased significantly.
Wang Dashan looked at the changes in the village and felt deeply moved.
"Xiu Lan, look at our village. How much it has changed in this year!"
Wang Dashan and his wife sat in the yard, looking at the brightly lit village and said.
Xiulan smiled and said, "Yes, this is all thanks to you. If you hadn't led us all, we wouldn't have such a good life today."
Wang Dashan shook his head: "This is the result of everyone's joint efforts. I just did what I should do. In the new year, we must continue to work hard to make Cuigu Village better."
As the New Year’s bell rang, Wang Dashan and the villagers welcomed the arrival of the new year together.
They are full of hope for the future and believe that under the leadership of Wang Dashan, Cui Gu Village will have a better tomorrow.
