The school also has a special kitchen, and the administrators have a duty schedule for all the slave girls from Sulu to cook for themselves, and Sun Lao will often come to give business guidance, and in any case, the food can be guaranteed to be better than on the Nicole.

Of course, this is only temporary, at present, the Han tenant slaves are busy building their own homes, and after a while, the Sunflower Women's Public Society will recruit a few aunts in that group to preside over the kitchen.

Subsequent arrivals included indigenous boys, women and children who had previously lived in the Red Mansion.

As a result, all these women and children, who are a generation apart, became the first batch of students of Sunflower Girls' School, the first batch of Sunflower Girls' School.

What these students didn't expect was that as "first-term students" of Sunflower Girls' College, this identity would play an extremely important role in their life journey and personal career development.

Of course, that's another story.

That's the way it is about the accommodation arrangements for Sunflower Girls' School and male and female students, and it is clear that everyone is doing their best in this regard.

In addition to the school matter, the most discussed issue in the Red Mansion is the big one: the distribution of labor among the more than 400 Han Chinese.

On the afternoon after the fleet went home, the people only rested for two hours after lunch, except for a few people who were on duty on the Nicole, the regular plenary meeting was held in the conference room on the fifth floor.

As expected, there was another heated debate on this issue at the meeting.

First of all, Mr. Zhao and Boss Luo spoke on behalf of a group of science and engineering men, they said that although there are not many new industrial projects in the second half of this year, they are all very important, and they are also labor-intensive projects, such as coal dry distillation in the chemical industry, cupola furnace in metallurgy and pyrite boiling furnace project.

In addition, Boss Luo and Wang Gong are also emphasizing the infrastructure projects and slipway construction of machinery repair plants, calling for the distribution of labor to take care of these aspects.

However, Lao Wang and Lao Zhu were a little unimpressed by this, they believed that although these laborers were strong laborers, if the quality of labor force was concerned, they could probably only be used in agriculture and animal husbandry, and at most they would be sent to work in mines and limestone quarries.

Or, if you Hou Xianglin have the time and patience to train it, it may be okay to use it in a brick and tile factory and a cement factory, but if you put these people on your industrial projects, I am afraid that it will not help but add to the chaos.

Don't believe you go to the assessment, these people are literate? Is it security-conscious? Do you have any other hands-on skills besides farm work? Can most people tell the difference between left and right hands?

Lao Wang said, as far as I know, there are probably a few women who are a bit of a bit of ingenuity, but can they do the physical work you have?

Lao Wang and Lao Zhu's series of rhetorical questions made the previous speakers fall silent.

So Lao Wang continued to play, so, you do industrial projects, don't fight those illiterate ideas, in a word, relatively technology-intensive work still depends on our ninety people!

After all, we young people belong to the high-quality labor force.

However, as soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused a group of high school students to be dissatisfied, and they complained that we are actually the life of coolies, when will we be of high quality again? We don't want this title!

Many people shouted angrily, here we will ask all the bigwigs, in the Year of the Monkey, we can get rid of the work of coolies!

"First of all, we must train, and secondly, we must assess, there is a process, in short, at least until the quality of these labor forces can meet the needs of industrial construction......

Lao Wang was not moved by everyone's emotions, and was still there to talk.

However, Mr. Zhao seemed to agree with Lao Wang and Zhu's opinion, so he said to this group of indignant young people:

"Be content, everyone, you don't have to continue to work in the fields, it's okay......"

Lao Zhu also immediately added:

"yes, you don't have to come to me to shovel manure in the future, oh, yes! Killing pigs can be regarded as the ...... of the two generals, Ren Ke and Wei Hong."

Lao Zhu's voice did not fall, which attracted a burst of laughter......

Obviously, the argument is the argument, and in the end everyone still has to face the reality, no matter how the young people complain, it seems that what Lao Wang and Lao Zhu said is very reasonable, and now it seems that those relatively technical jobs are indeed only done by ourselves.

What's more, this group of Han people in these days of Nicole, everyone also basically understands the ability of this group of people, to be honest, probably in addition to some farm work, there is really no skill, after all, the skilled people Sulu nobles will also know, and then they will enter various workshops as artisan slaves, and the rest will go to farming.

And in the eyes of everyone, the so-called farm work of these Han tenant slave associations is basically nonsense, don't forget, everyone has been doing farm work with Lao Wang for more than two years, and what have you done in the fields? It can be said that everyone is a great expert Lao Wang's "personal disciple".

Therefore, when it comes to agricultural skills, I am afraid that everyone here is much stronger than the group of illiterate, not to mention that this group of people really can't even distinguish between left and right hands.

Therefore, everyone also feels in their hearts that it is indeed a bit risky to use such a group of labor force for industrial construction.

At the very least, intensive training is required for a period of time before it can be used, and it seems that a lot of the arduous industrial construction work will have to be done by yourself before that.

Well, in the end, everyone could only face the reality, gave up some unrealistic ideas, and the topic of the meeting immediately shifted to the specific matters at the moment.

For example, the living settlement of this group of tenant slaves.

The topic first focused on the accommodation of the Han Chinese tenant slaves.

At this time, Hou Xianglin said that no matter how this group of people is distributed in the future, anyway, in the last ten days, most of the Han labor force will be under my command.

Because there is a need to build housing.

However, Lao Wang interrupted Xiao Hou's speech, and said with some urgency, if the weeds in the sugarcane beet field are not removed, it will definitely affect the harvest, and I must come here, otherwise I will return the word, and you crew members will go down to the weeding field with me tomorrow!

Then Lao Zhu also added faintly next to him, saying that tomorrow the ranch will kill cattle and sheep, by the way, there is also a lot of work to dry the fish, who of you will help? Also, the egg production of poultry has increased recently, so if you still want to eat fresh eggs, you can send labor to me, and there is work to be done......

Therefore, in the face of the venue that was about to be blown up, Sun Lao quickly got up and announced on behalf of the General Affairs Coordination Committee that the current situation is exceptional, and we have to temporarily shelve the discussion of the issue of labor distribution.

The Supreme Executive Committee suggested that for the time being, there would only be three places for these laborers to go – the first was Hou Xianglin's construction team, because he needed labor to build houses for Han Chinese, even if it was just a few rows of simple bamboo buildings on stilts.

The second place to go is Lao Wang's field, where there is indeed a lot of farm work backlogged now.

And the third place is Lao Zhu's Sydney Island Ranch, where he doesn't pick labor, women can also do it, and older people can also do it.

As for the bigwigs in the industrial circles, they can only endure it for the time being, and it has entered the second half of the year, and the dry season has passed halfway, whether it is farm work or infrastructure, these 400 people are actually quite a lot of work.

However, even so, the three parties still feel that the people are not enough to distribute, after all, a while ago, the main force of labor went to sea, and there was too much work backlog at home, not to mention Lao Wang's farmland, where after the expansion, there has been no large-scale labor in the field for a long time, so Lao Wang strongly asked to give him at least 200 strong laborers to remove weeds.

Mr. Hou also said that his housing construction sites and brick and cement factories there also needed at least 100 laborers.

At this time, Cao Limei suddenly came out and said, don't forget the mine, where did the clay limestone come from in your brother Hou's brick and tile factory and cement factory?

So it's another bargain......

In this regard, Mr. Zhao and Boss Luo expressed their disappointment, and complained that they had been making trouble for a long time, and in the end there was nothing to do with us?

At this time, Sun Lao promised in time that once Lao Wang's side was a little more idle, he would definitely let these laborers support your industrial construction, of course, I am afraid that I still have to work hard for the crew members who have just returned home.

Next, the meeting discussed the unfinished Moon River hydropower project, for this project, Kangda Wang Zhanwu said that they do not need those Han tenant slaves, because their work is really technical work, even if it is the construction of the dam, it is also technical work.

The meeting finally decided that the construction of the Moon River Hydropower Station must start in early August, and we still need to build it ourselves, and everyone can only nod and agree when they hear this, after all, Kang Wang and Wang are very right, there is a lot of technical work there, and the Han people used to be some tenant slaves, and they can do rough work, and they can go to the brick and tile factory to move bricks, even if they go to the cement factory to work, they can barely do it, but they can't go to the dam site to do concrete work.

Fortunately, with these Han laborers, at least everyone does not have to go to the fields and brick factories and cement factories to do rough work, and they can also concentrate more construction machinery to go to mines and coal mines.

However, after several complaints from the industrial tycoons, the Supreme Executive Council finally agreed to allow the tycoons to recruit a small number of workers among the Han Chinese after the completion of Hou Xianglin's residential project, but not too many, because these people would soon be engaged in Lao Wang's farm work.

It was preliminarily decided that the total number of people in industrial projects could not exceed one-fifth, that is, about eighty.

In addition, most of these 80 people belong to the labor force fixed to work in brick and tile factories, cement factories, glass factories and mines, as for the chemical, metallurgical, mechanical and slipway projects that have been put on the agenda, we probably still need to go into battle and slowly do it ourselves.

In addition, Sun Lao reminded everyone that more than a dozen laborers should be transferred to Wang Nabin and Zhou Yuye, and their textile and leather shoe-making projects have suddenly become important, but Wang Erren immediately comforted everyone and said that we don't necessarily have to be strong laborers here, as long as there are female workers.

At this point, the discussion on the distribution of the labor force of this group of Han people has finally settled, and the agriculture and animal husbandry of Lao Wang and Lao Zhu have become the biggest winners, and the brick and tile cement factory on Hou Xianglin's side, the coal mine and limestone mine presided over by Cao Limei, and the textile project of Wang Zhou have also obtained a certain amount of labor......
