"Okay, I don't have a problem. Zhou Niannian pursed her lips and took the opportunity to ask Qi Jiayan to take care of the procurement of raw materials.

Meng Sanqiu breathed a sigh of relief, he had a good impression of Qi Jiayan, so naturally he would not object, "Lao Xing spoke more bluntly yesterday, don't take it to heart, if there is anything in the future, we still have to discuss it together." ”

Zhou Niannian should come down and show Meng Sanqiu the recruitment plan he made overnight: "Our scale in the early stage will not be too large, about fifty people are enough, and the scale will be expanded later, we can recruit people again." ”

Meng Sanqiu took it and looked at it carefully, and nodded again and again: "Your recruitment plan is so good, Comrade Xiao Zhou, I am now more and more confident in our factory." ”

Zhou Niannian, she knew that running a factory was a big deal after all, and after nearly two years of money from the brigade, if she couldn't make the first money, Meng Sanqiu's heart would always be hanging.

"Let's take a look at the place in the village in a while, choose the place, and then we can start building the factory. Meng Sanqiu patted his thigh, looked at the recruitment plan in his hand, and felt that there were too many things to do for a while, and his heart instantly swelled with pride and emotion.

"I don't know much about finding a construction team, so you can just watch it. Zhou Niannian said: "We are doing food processing, so the inside of the plant must be clean, and the materials used must be good." ”

Meng Sanqiu agreed: "I know this, don't worry, when the time comes, when the construction starts, my old man will move a bench every day to stare there to see who dares to cut corners." ”

Zhou Niannian was amused and laughed.

In the afternoon, Meng Sanqiu called Xing Dehai and took people around the village, and finally set the place in the south of the village, near the foot of the mountain, and chose a piece of land.

The place is not far from where Zhou Niannian lives now.

Knowing that the village was going to build a factory, the men in the village who knew how to do the mason skills came, and I have to say that the people at this time were still relatively simple, Xing Dehai picked people to set up a temporary engineering team and began to work overtime to build the factory.

Zhou Niannian was responsible for the interior decoration drawings of the factory, and planned to only make three kinds of food: ham sausage, dried meat and bacon, so it was good to divide it into three production lines.

At the same time, it is necessary to carry out open recruitment, set the people, and someone will do a lot of the preparatory work.

Early the next morning, three tables were set up in the courtyard of the team headquarters of the Meng Jiang Brigade, and Meng Sanqiu, Xing Dehai and Zhou Niannian sat on one table respectively, waiting for the interviews with those who came to sign up.

The people who came to sign up crowded into a courtyard early, noisy and very lively, and many people were stunned when they saw Zhou Niannian sitting at one of the tables.

The person with a quick mouth immediately asked, "Director Xing, why is Comrade Xiao Zhou in charge of interviewing us?"

Xing Dehai nodded with a straight face: "Comrade Xiao Zhou is the deputy director of our meat processing factory." ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole yard was boiling, some were happy, some were unconvinced, and some were watching the excitement.

Li Wenjing hid in the crowd, looking at Zhou Niannian sitting in front with a gloomy face, and the jealousy in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

Because of the ugly thing that day, she hid in the dormitory for several days and didn't come out, until she heard the radio later, until the village was about to set up a factory, in order to enter the factory as a worker, she gritted her teeth and went out of the dormitory with Zhang Peilan.

She had made up her mind to go into the factory, and she was too tired to do farm work on weekdays, even if there was a night school teacher in front of her, it was temporary, and it was easier than not being a worker to earn money.

"Why can Zhou Niannian be the deputy factory director?" Zhang Peilan stared at Zhou Niannian sitting behind the table indignantly, her face full of disberence.

Li Wenjing didn't answer, lowered her head and thought about how to enter the factory smoothly and not be stopped by Zhou Niannian, although Zhou Niannian didn't say anything about that day, Li Wenjing had a hunch, Zhou Niannian must have guessed that it was Zheng Chunsheng who she was behind her.

Bai Yuqing was slightly surprised for a moment, and then moved to the side quietly, moving to the back of the team that Xing Dehai was interviewing.

She had an intuition that Zhou Niannian seemed to have some inexplicable hostility towards her, and she didn't want to confront Zhou Niannian before she knew the situation, and she didn't want her plan to be a worker destroyed.

Li Wenjing caught a glimpse of her movements, and also moved into the team in front of Meng Sanqiu.

There were a lot of people who came to sign up, almost all the men, women and children of the whole village came, Meng Sanqiu waved his hand, the courtyard was quiet, and everyone looked at him attentively.

"We only recruit 50 people in the first phase of this factory, we discussed it just now, and let's talk about two conditions first. Meng Sanqiu shouted at the top of his voice, "The first: in order to ensure a fair period, only one person in a family can enter the factory at most, and the second must be literate, have a cultural foundation, and be able to write and count." “

As soon as these words came out, a sigh suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

Able to write and calculate, a large number of people were stopped at the door, and some of the older ones withdrew from the line in frustration.

Although he withdrew from the team, he did not leave the yard, after all, it is a major event in Mengjiang Village to set up a factory, and the open recruitment is something they have never seen and heard of, and the villagers are very curious to see what is going on.

Most of the rest of the team are young people, especially the educated youth, who are eager to try.

Every person who signed up stepped forward, Zhou Niannian would ask them to introduce themselves simply, give them a few simple Chinese and math problems for them to calculate, and then ask some questions such as whether they could make bacon and chop meat, and finally observe whether their clothes were clean and neat.

They make food, and hygiene must be strict, and you can see from the way a person dresses whether he is a hygienic person.

After a busy morning, I finally finished interviewing everyone at noon.

Meng Sanqiu stood up and shouted: "Everyone go back and wait for the news, the admission situation will be broadcast on the radio in two days, and the team department will also post the list of people who have been admitted at that time." ”

Hearing that it would take a few days to know the result, the villagers were a little disappointed, but this did not diminish their excitement much, and they surrounded Meng Sanqiu, Xing Dehai and Zhou Niannian in twos and threes to inquire about the situation.

After all, if there is someone in the family who can be a worker, the situation at home can be improved a lot, and it is much more decent to go out, even if they are not admitted, and they have a factory in their own village, the villagers feel that they are more decent than other villages when they go out.

When the villagers dispersed, Zhou Niannian, Meng Sanqiu and Xing Dehai had time to sit down and discuss the candidates for admission.

"Let's make a list of 20 candidates each, and then we will discuss them together. Meng Sanqiu proposed.

Zhou Niannian and Xing Dehai had no objections, and buried themselves in writing the list of people they thought could be admitted on paper, and soon the lists of the three of them were listed and put together.

As soon as Zhou Niannian saw the list listed by Xing Dehai, his brows furrowed.
