After Xie Chengzhi finished speaking, Song Zhian was the first to laugh: "That means getting rid of Xiaomin. She had given up anyway."

Among these thirty-five people, only Zhu Xiaomin comes from a cadre family.

Xie Chengzhi couldn't help laughing, and shook his head again: "We only talk about our ideas. Excluding cadre families, the remaining worker families are divided into dual-income families, single-income families and ordinary families."

An ordinary family means that neither of the parents is a formal worker, or they are temporary workers in a factory, or they work part-time for others.

Yang Aijun nodded: "Two-income families have it easier than one-income families." After a brief silence, he finally said, "Then... I'll quit too."

Everyone understands that although they all hope to get the opportunity to go to college, the ultimate goal is to return to the city. Dual-income families are not only better off financially than single-income families, but with two people working in the factory, there are more chances of obtaining recruitment targets in the future.

After hearing what he said, Song Zhian, Wu Xulin, He Wenhua and others nodded and expressed their intention to withdraw, but the others hesitated and did not say anything.

Xie Chengzhi waved his hand and said, "Don't rush to express your opinions. We are just telling you our thoughts. We know that this is a rare opportunity to return to the city. No one will be unmoved. Dual-income families also have their own difficulties. It doesn't mean that dual-income families need to give way to single-income families."

That's true!

Everyone listened and nodded slightly.

Zhu Xiaomin interrupted at the right time and said, "There is another thing. It should be done step by step. But now that the university quota has been announced, I want to talk about it in advance."

"What's the matter?" Song Zhian asked.

Zhu Xiaomin took out a copy of the materials in her hand and said, "This is the next plan for our base." She handed it to Xing Qingsheng, who was closest to her, and then said, "I think everyone knows the estimated output of the orchard this year. Among the thirteen brigades of the commune, although the other twelve brigades planted less, they also had a yield this year. The commune wants us to give up some sales to other brigades."

Yang Aijun was surprised: "Won't that mean our fruits will be unsalable?"

Zhu Xiaomin nodded, pointed at the materials Xing Qingsheng was flipping through and said, "This is the plan to solve this problem. We plan to set up a canning workshop and can some of the fruits. The brigade has preliminarily agreed."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that the problem had been solved.

But what does this have to do with university places?

Zhu Xiaomin didn't wait for anyone to ask, and continued, "This is what Xudong said that day. What we are doing now is more meaningful. My original plan was to build a workshop this year, a factory next year, and recruit workers the year after."

"Recruitment?" Wu Xulin was surprised. "Xiaomin, you mean that even if we don't get the quota to go to university this time, we can wait until the next year to recruit workers and become formal workers in the cannery?"

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "Not bad!"

Zhang Qiaomei had never heard of this plan. She was surprised, but she caught a key point: "Xiaomin, you said this was your original plan. Is there any change?"

Zhu Xiaomin smiled at her, nodded and said, "Yes, this plan was already in my mind when I suggested planting fruit trees, but I didn't expect to marry Lu Mingzheng and leave here early, so I gave the plan to Xudong and asked him to complete it. Of course, we all need to work together to help him complete it."

Going to university is the dream of almost all educated people, but now, no one knows what that illusory university will be like after going there. Instead, the pie described by Zhu Xiaomin is more tempting.

Xing Qingsheng had finished reading the plan, his eyes sparkled, and he nodded immediately: "Xiaomin, I know that almost all brigades have increased the proportion of fruit trees planted this year. By the year after next, the fruits of every brigade will be unsalable. By that time, it will be time for our canning factory to expand its scale."

Zhu Xiaomin nodded slightly and continued, "Before a plan is completed, it is just empty talk. Now that we have this university quota, I want everyone to know that there is this path. If we don't go to university and don't recruit workers, we can build the factory ourselves and recruit workers ourselves. By that time, the factory will be built by our own hands. We have knowledge and culture, and we will be the first batch of managers of the new factory."

Building a factory is only half of her entire plan. The other half is that she will not do formal recruitment the year after next, but will let everyone take the college entrance examination at the end of the year after next. It would be best if all employees can pass. If there are those who fail, they will be the newest batch of managers of this factory.

So, not going to college is no big deal.

There was another explosion in the yard, and everyone immediately started discussing excitedly. Some of them ran over to take the plan from Xing Qingsheng and read it.

Originally, everyone was discussing the number of places for college admission and the issue of class background was mentioned. Luo Tingyuan was just eating quietly and not paying attention to everyone's discussion. But at this point, he couldn't help but look up and glance at the people sitting on the other side of the long table. In addition to admiration, there was also a hint of shock in his eyes.

Such a young girl actually has such great ambitions...or rather, such great aspirations.

He didn't know how many surprises she could bring him.

After a lively discussion for a while, the plan went around and returned to Zhu Xiaomin's hands. Everyone no longer valued this university place as much as before, and several people have voluntarily withdrawn from the competition, from various families.

Even if you return to the city, you still have to find a job. If you can't participate in normal recruitment and end up doing odd jobs everywhere, it's better to stay.

At least it can be a management.

Listening to everyone's discussion, Xie Chengzhi waved his hand and said, "As Xiaomin envisioned, building a factory and recruiting workers will be the earliest thing to happen the year after next. We still have to select someone for this university quota. Apart from anything else, we still need people even if we build a factory. If they go to university and come back to work with us, they have to be much better."

"Yes!" Everyone nodded immediately.

It takes two years to build a factory, three years to recruit workers, and four years to graduate from university. At that time, it was just the right time to come back and join in the construction.

Miao Shiwen slowly interrupted and said, "So, the candidates we selected are those among us who are younger and more malleable. When they go to university, they can absorb more knowledge."

Xie Chengzhi explained: "We think that it takes four years to go to university, and younger students have stronger absorption ability and are more likely to calm down and study."

Song Zhian was impatient and said quickly, "Who did you choose in the end? Just tell us directly, and then we can have a good meal."

You just know how to eat!

Everyone glanced at him.

Zhu Xiaomin smiled and said, "We have selected three people. Please give us some suggestions." She turned over a piece of paper and read, "Song Zhian!"
