Chapter 1290 - 633 Golden Rice Bowl
Chapter 1290: Chapter 633 Golden Rice Bowl"Keep thinking, keep thinking. If you can’t think of anything good, then we won’t send anything out!" Yan Fei was annoyed as everyone passed the buck back to him. Deciding benefits alone—it sounded too good to be true!
As soon as he said this, everyone had no choice but to continue brainstorming.
However, as they tossed ideas back and forth, they still couldn’t come up with anything worthwhile. No one lacked daily necessities, and everyone ate from the same pot. When it came to living standards, the community’s standard was even better than a well-off life.
"I have an idea. Do I get a reward for speaking up?" The one seeking benefits for suggestions was definitely Lin Haihu, who never regretted anything despite always getting beaten up.
"Let’s hear it. There are so many of us here, if the idea is good, there’ll definitely be a benefit," Yan Fei said.
"Watch TV. See what the ads are promoting, and just give out that," Lin Haihu suggested proudly.
This idea was great, and since they had turned the TV volume down for the meeting, upon hearing this suggestion, everyone started frantically
Nowadays the competition was indeed fierce. Every day, the television aired ads for compound fertilizers touting "America" and "Russia," scaring people with their prestigious branding. Farmers learned about the outside world through television, trusting the ads; if prices were similar, most would choose these advertised products without much thought.
But no one pondered that if these so-called imported products were indeed transported from abroad, considering today’s logistical conditions with toll stations nearly every hundred miles, the costs would be astronomical.
However, these concerns were not for Yan Fei to ponder. Listening as the conversation derailed towards overseas issues, Yan Fei cleared his throat, "Hmm, do we still want benefits? We’re talking about benefits!"
The crowd chuckled, and then Old Cheng spoke up, "Boss, just distribute anything casually; it’s the thought that counts. Times have changed; what iron rice bowl isn’t really iron rice bowl after all. Our own work here is much more reliable. Everyone knows how well we’re doing here; just give out something simple, who could complain?"
"Exactly, exactly!" This immediately drew a chorus of agreement.
Everyone was clear about the benefits issue; it was mostly these seasoned workers, those who had been in the facility the longest, who offered their opinions. Newcomers like Xiaohei, Zhang Dawa, Cui Zhangfei, and Hou Dayong knew they didn’t have much say in these discussions.
