The educated youth was reborn and wanted to disappear, but he was locked into a military marriage.

Zhu Xiaomin replied one by one: "This new improved corn has been successfully planted. The next step is to promote its planting. Don't worry, I will discuss this with the research institute and formulate a charter."

After receiving her affirmative answer, the production team leader of the 11th Brigade felt relieved. He ran to visit the corn field where not a single corn cob was left, and went back with a lot of discussion.

This matter came to an end, and the autumn harvest was over. Zhu Xiaomin first looked for Qi Yishan and Guo Xingqi: "The children in Class 2 are about to graduate. You can give them a graduation exam during this period. When the results come out, I will take them to the commune."

Seeing that the two agreed, he found Xie Chengzhi, Xing Qingsheng and a few others and started recruiting workers for the food factory.

At this time, Bai Guihua came to her and said, "Our Langya family and the Jin family are all going to participate. Should that be okay?"

Zhu Xiaomin turned around to look at Xing Qingsheng.

Xing Qingsheng asked with a smile: "Are you talking about just the few people in our team, or also the ones from the third team?"

"All of them." Bai Guihua said seriously, "I promised them that if they listen to me, I will lead them to a good life. If they are not selected and stay in the Third Brigade, they will still be bullied."

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "Why are the dozen widows from the Third Brigade treating them badly?"

Bai Guihua snorted, "There are a few who really think that a live-in son-in-law is here to be bullied."

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "You want them all to work in the food factory, so that they can be separated from their current wives?"

"No!" Bai Guihua shook her head. "It would be best if those women could also enter the food factory. Even if they can't, they will always have to see men, and they can't do whatever they want there."

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "What about you? Do you want to come in too?"

Bai Guihua thought about it, looked at Xing Qingsheng and asked, "Can I?"

She didn't spend much time working in the food factory.

Xing Qingsheng smiled and said, "If you want to come in, then sign up and we will consider it comprehensively."

Bai Guihua nodded: "My Langya is going, so of course I will go too." Then she filled in her name on the registration form.

Zhu Xiaomin looked at the words she wrote and said with a smile, "Not bad."

Bai Guihua blushed for a rare moment: "Forget about other people, but I dare not listen to your praise of me." She said what she wanted to say and left.

Watching her back as she left the brigade headquarters, Zhu Xiaomin asked, "Are those guys in the Third Brigade also named Jin?"

Xing Qingsheng smiled and nodded, "Yes, his last name is also Jin. I heard that when they first came, they were bullied by the team and the tasks assigned to them were all hard and tiring. The food factory did not replace them when they changed people. It was Bai Guihua who instigated the widows to make trouble, so that they were also given a turn."

"Why do you say that the widows make them angry?" Zhu Xiaomin asked.

Xie Chengzhi sighed: "These women used to be arrogant following men in the past few years. Now that they can't bully others, they take out their anger on their sons-in-law. These women in our village are suppressed by Bai Guihua, and it took a long time for them to get used to it, but the Third Brigade can't take care of them."

Xing Qingsheng followed up, "I talked to them at the food factory. How could such grown men be bullied by women? They are just cut off from their families. Even though they are being bullied now, at least they can have a full meal. If women don't want them anymore, they don't know where to go."

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "How is the work?"

Xing Qingsheng nodded: "The people Bai Guihua selected are all good workers. Not only are they hardworking and capable, but most of them are also dexterous. The baskets and crates used in the food factory and even the shelves in the warehouse were all made by them during their rest time."

"The food factory also opened literacy classes, what about their cultural courses?" Zhu Xiaomin asked.

Xing Qingsheng said: "These people in our team are pretty good. They have only been in the third team for a few months, so they started late and can only recognize a few words."

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "Take your time. If you have no problem with the work and your character, you can stay."

This is a back door for these people.

The two didn't care and nodded in agreement.

The food factory only wanted to recruit more than 300 workers in the first batch, but the 11th brigade reported more than 2,000 people.

The first round of screening starts from the time of registration. Those who have been rejected for fighting, petty theft, cheating, etc. will not be hired and will be expelled directly.

The second round is to extract the records of everyone working in the food factory, count everything from attendance to task completion rate, and then make a ranking.

This is a huge project.

Almost all the educated youth took part in the work, and it took a full week.

After that, the educated youth would vote, from the beginning to the end, to use or not based on these people's usual performance.

Finally, by mid-October, more than 300 people had settled on the group.

When the list was posted, there was an uproar in the square in front of the food factory. The more than 1,000 people who were not hired were naturally dissatisfied and clamored for an explanation.

Xie Chengzhi took Xing Qingsheng, Wu Xulin and others to the makeshift stage and loudly explained the assessment method. When he saw a few familiar faces, he cited several examples and finally took control of the situation.

Xie Chengzhi then said: "This is the first batch of recruitment. Those who are not selected do not need to be discouraged. Our food factory will continue to develop and there will be a second and third recruitment. We will also gradually recruit people based on their performance in the past two years."

There is still a chance!

When everyone heard this, they stopped expressing their dissatisfaction, for they were afraid that if they were the first to stand out, they would lose opportunities in the future.

When more than 300 people entered the factory, the first step was to divide them into groups of ten, and select a group leader. Then five groups formed a workshop, and then a workshop foreman was selected. These were all grassroots managers.

These people were still selected from the three hundred workers, but when they were divided into groups, the original composition of each team was intentionally disrupted. There were no more than three people from the same team in each group to avoid forming small groups and factions within the group.

There were twenty-four people in total, including the young man named Jin from the first and third brigades, plus Langya, divided into twelve groups. Five of them were elected as group leaders, but Bai Guihua became the foreman of a workshop with her strong leadership ability.

After these matters were settled, Zhu Xiaomin led the educated youth to start sorting out the materials, sending the information of these 300 people to the commune, and then reporting to the county labor department to go through the formal recruitment procedures.

Inside the factory, Yang Aijun also led his team to formally adjust the dormitories for 300 people, and allocated housing to couples who had entered the factory.

By the time all these things were done, half of October had already passed.

To be exact, it was October 19th.

Zhu Xiaomin watched everyone bring in their work, took a long breath, and said to Xie Chengzhi: "This work is done, and the next step is only the management of the top management. There is no rush in one or two days. Call everyone back tomorrow and we will have a good gathering. I have to go back to the city."

Yes, it’s been so busy that two months have passed in a flash.

After hearing what she said, everyone was indescribably reluctant. Xie Chengzhi immediately agreed. In addition to arranging someone to pass the message to the few people who stayed in the food factory, he also arranged for a few people to go to the town to buy chickens and cut meat, and he also slaughtered a few rabbits himself.
