Zhao Sheng went back to Gaojia Village, and when he came with the boat again, he brought a large number of people.

One of them is actually the director of the Gaojia Village Firearms Bureau, Xu Dafu.

It turned out that when he heard that Yongji Wharf was considering building a "front-line bullet factory" to replenish ammunition for the militia group on the expedition to Shanxi, Xu Dafu was taken aback: "Bullet factory, then there is a lot of gunpowder to be moved around, how dangerous is that?" No, you can't just send an apprentice to do it, it's going to explode! This thing has to be seen by myself. ”

At this time, under his many years of management, the firearms bureau of Gaojia Village had everything in order, especially in terms of safety, even if he was not there, several of his apprentices could manage the gunpowder properly in accordance with the rules and regulations.

But he was still not at ease in this way, and he repeatedly told him for a long time before he dared to leave. brought a group of technical backbones and followed Zhao Sheng to Yongji.

The factory building of the bullet factory is not difficult to get, Yongji Gudu Wharf has already begun to build cement houses after a long period of development, and the blue hats who arrived first have already brought out a large group of yellow hat apprentices who can play with cement.

Zhao Sheng gave an order, and it was not difficult to build another cement plant.

The real difficulty lies in the "workers".

Xu Dafu said: "Workers who can be allowed to touch gunpowder must be people who have been inspected for a long time and have absolutely no problems with their character, and it is best to be a female worker, women are careful, can endure loneliness and stay indoors for a long time to do repetitive and boring work, not like men who are full of sassy operations and always want to run out to fight the world, is there such a person here in Yongji Gudu?" ”

Zhao Sheng thought about it very carefully: "There are such people. ”

Yongji Gudu Wharf has also been developing for more than a year, Xing Hongwolf was in Chongzhen three years, Shaanxi Liukou entered Shanxi at the same time, came to Yongji Gudu Wharf by boat, at that time gathered more than 1,000 people on the wharf to work.

With the passage of time, it has absorbed people from several surrounding counties, and even many people from Puzhou City have come to work at Gudu Wharf.

There are now two or three thousand people living in the residential areas of the common people.

These two or three thousand people are generally men working for Gaojia Village, and women are responsible for cooking on the construction site......

The wages for cooking on the fire are very low, and they are not even paid, but they only take care of the food for them, but the women do not complain, and obediently do this kind of work with very low pay. After all, they've been like this for thousands of years.

Zhao Sheng: "We can recruit the first group of women who came to the dock to cook for our people into the bullet factory, they have been cooking hard for a year, and they have passed the test of time and can enter the bullet factory, and then go to the county town outside to recruit some women who cook again." ”

Xu Dafu: "Then it's no problem. ”

Thus, the recruitment conference for female workers officially began.

At the intersection in the middle of the residential area of Gudu Wharf, a notice was hung up, which read: "Recruit workers, male or female, engaged in highly confidential work, and the salary treatment is the same as that of other skilled workers......

Zhao Sheng also sent a literate subordinate to stand next to the notice and read it to the women who couldn't read.

As soon as this matter was disturbed, the dock immediately became lively.

When the men saw this notice, they couldn't help but fall into deep thought: Is there actually no limit to men and women? In other words, this job can be done by a woman? Is there a mistake? Why do women do the same work as us men? It seems that the wages are the same.

In the villain book "Gao Piao", they knew that there were already many industries in Gaojia Village that used female workers, but they didn't expect Yongji Gudu Wharf to usher in this day.

And the women of Yongji Gudu couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw this notice.

"Wow, sisters, look, this job can be done by both men and women, and the income is the same as that of workers, our previous cooking work had very little salary, if we can do this, the income can be the same as that of men."

All of a sudden, there were many applicants, and the total population on the pier was only more than 2,000 people, but more than 800 people came to sign up, half of whom were men and half women.

When these people arrived at the registration place, they saw Xu Dafu sitting on the platform of the "recruitment conference" with a calm face, holding an iron shouting microphone, and facing the people below in a serious tone: "Listen to the people who come to sign up for a new job, I have to tell you the ugly things in front, do this new job, I can't see the light of day all year round, and I stay in a dry small room for a long time, repeatedly doing very boring, repetitive, boring actions......"

As soon as he said this, some men began to retreat, and men didn't like this kind of long-term work in the room.

A good man has ambitions in all directions, how can he be trapped in a small black house?

However, the women did not react after hearing this, for the women of this era, is it not a great good to stay in the house? The old lady can stay at all.

Xu Dafu continued: "Doing this work also requires meticulousness, dexterous fingers, and doing some very small work. ”

He took out a paper-wrapped bullet and showed it to the audience: "See? It's just a little bit big, and it has to wrap three things inside, which is more difficult than wrapping zongzi, from morning to night......"

As soon as he said this, another group of men retreated.

The women still didn't react: "That's it? It's much easier than sewing clothes, embroidering or whatever. ”

Xu Dafu finally added: "To do this work, it must also be kept secret, and the work process, work content, and production methods shall not be disseminated, and gossip is strictly prohibited." ”

As soon as this sentence was said, the men were in high spirits, and the women were shocked: Don't let gossip? This...... How do you spend your days?

Xu Dafu: "It's just that you can't gossip about the content of your work, but you can gossip about whether your co-worker has a son or a daughter at home, the co-worker talks in his dream in the middle of the night and falls in love with Zheng Daniu in the neighboring village, and the co-worker has an affair with the old Zhang Tou in the next village, which is not confidential, and you can gossip as much as you like." ”

Zheng Daniu, who came to see the excitement, was also shot while lying down: "Wow? I protest! Why take my name as an example? ”

Accompany Zheng Daniu to see the lively soap warbler: "I also protest!" Why do you say that the big cow is very lucky? He's not that kind of person. ”

Xu Dafu rolled his eyes at Zheng Daniu and the soap warbler, and ignored it directly.

At this time, the women who came to sign up were already happy: "No problem at all, let's sign up!" Application! ”

A large crowd of women enthusiastically signed up, and in a short time 400 female workers and 200 male workers were recruited.

The Yongji Bullet Factory is ready to start operating.
