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

Zhu Xiaomin nodded slightly, leaving Wang Liwan alone and asking, "Who has been taking care of those four male educated youths these past few months?"

Chen Xudong said: "Yang Junqing followed me, as did Xu Daming from Xujiatun. When I went to the county and other teams, they followed me. Sometimes Yang Junqing would stay in the factory to help."

"Who does he follow in the factory?" Zhu Xiaomin asked again.

Xing Qingsheng said: "It was mainly during the recruitment period. Yang Junqing had a good memory of people and helped a lot."

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "Where are Shi Zhiguo and Ding Lihong?"

"Shi Zhiguo spends most of his time in the workshop, especially the machine room," said Yang Aijun.

"Where is Ding Lihong?" Zhu Xiaomin asked.

Everyone looked at each other for a few seconds, and after a while someone said, "I only taught there for two days, when the workers were assigned dormitories after they entered the factory."

Another said: "He helped us once, but then he almost got into a fight with someone, so he never came back."

"He has been going to the brigade headquarters frequently for about a month." Chen Danqing added.

This is something that is not going to work well anywhere!

Zhu Xiaomin couldn't help rubbing her forehead.

Xie Chengzhi asked: "Xiaomin, are you considering high-level management? Can you still get involved now?"

Zhu Xiaomin nodded, "I can get involved, and they can use it." After a pause, she saw that everyone had put down their chopsticks to listen to her, and immediately waved her hand, "Don't worry about this matter for now, let's eat first. Two or three people will go to buy tickets tomorrow, and the rest will wait for me at the guesthouse. I have something to discuss." After that, she looked at Jiang Xingyu and said, "You can stay tomorrow too, and buy tickets for that day and ask them to bring them for you."

Jiang Xingyu nodded: "Okay!"

Dinner was simple because everyone was so curious and excited, and it took an hour to eat.

After coming out of the restaurant, Zhu Xiaomin called Xie Chengzhi and Chen Xudong: "Let the others go back first, you two can see me off."

It was already late at night, and she really couldn't be allowed to go back to the herbal medicine factory alone.

The two agreed to separate from the main group and send her back to the medicinal materials factory.

After walking for a while, Zhu Xiaomin asked, "If we choose one among Shi Zhiguo, Yang Junqing and Li Wenzhe to be in charge of the personnel and internal management of the factory, which one would be more suitable?" and directly excluded Ding Lihong.

"Yang Junqing." The two people said almost in unison.

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "What if I work as a secretary in the factory office, assisting the factory director?"

"Yang Junqing." The two people said at the same time.

Zhu Xiaomin raised her eyebrows and couldn't help laughing: "Why can't the other two?"

Xie Chengzhi said: "Yang Junqing is a man of good words and good relationships with people. He is easy to communicate with and handles things fairly."

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "What about business capabilities?"

The two of them were silent for a moment, then looked at each other. Chen Xudong then said, "When it comes to production, it's still Shi Zhiguo. When it comes to external contacts, whether it's contacting resources or sales, Li Wenzhe is better."

Zhu Xiaomin nodded slightly, and after a moment's hesitation, she asked, "Can Ding Lihong be used?"

Xie Chengzhi frowned and said nothing, but Chen Xudong sneered and said, "Just now, with Jiang Xingyu here, Danqing didn't say it very directly. He obviously wanted to take over Danqing's work, but he was afraid of helping him in vain, so he just went to the brigade cadres to curry favor."

It sounds like another Nie Yifei.

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "Who will take over Danqing's work now?"

Xie Chengzhi said: "It's Wen Xiaolong from our primary school class one. He came to help Danqing after the autumn harvest."

Wen Xiaolong.

Zhu Xiaomin remembered that child, who was from Wenjiabao and belonged to the first team. He was the oldest and the most unruly one in the first class. She couldn't help laughing: "That child is like a monkey. How can he be calm?"

Chen Xudong smiled: "I have grown a few years older, especially after two years of working in the mountains and fields, I have become much more stable."

Xie Chengzhi also laughed: "In fact, he had restrained himself a lot before graduation. He admired Danqing's good calligraphy and listened to him very much."

Zhu Xiaomin felt relieved: "Where are the other children?"

"There are a few younger ones. Someone in their family was hired to work in the factory, so they can move in with them and go to the town to attend junior high school." Xie Chengzhi answered, then sighed and said, "It's a pity we left. Otherwise, there are still a few children who want to go to junior high school, but it's far from the town, especially the girls. Their families are worried."

"I'm afraid we can't afford to run a middle school here. There are not enough students and the teaching staff will become a problem." Zhu Xiaomin shook his head.

"No!" Chen Xudong shook his head. "Sister Xiaojuan mentioned to me that if our factory could provide a place for the children to live, she would definitely send Xiaoyu to junior high school."

Xie Chengzhi nodded: "The first brigade is far from the town, and the second and third brigades are even farther away. The food factory is only three miles away from the town. If the factory can provide accommodation for the children, several children will be able to get the opportunity to go to junior high school."

Zhu Xiaomin's eyes lit up and she nodded immediately: "We can do this."

"Okay?" Xie Chengzhi looked surprised.

Zhu Xiaomin nodded and said with a smile: "The Administration wants me to be the director of Zhulu Food Factory."

"Really?" They were both surprised and happy when they heard it.

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "As for what we just discussed today, the appointment will be made in the next few days."

"But how will you handle your work if you go to school?" Chen Xudong asked.

Zhu Xiaomin said: "In fact, the main work is still done by Captain Chang. My role is similar to the previous two years. I am the secretary of the selection office, and my job is to assist me in my work."

"Will the deputy factory director in charge of internal management also be selected from the educated youth who stayed behind?" Xie Chengzhi asked.

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "I originally wanted to have the commune appoint someone, but the people in the commune are inevitably related to the various teams, so I want to choose one from the educated youth."

As they walked and talked, they had already entered the medicinal materials factory. Zhu Xiaomin stopped in front of the building door and said with a smile: "Let's go back today. I'll go over there tomorrow and we'll listen to everyone's opinions."

The two nodded and watched her go upstairs, then they returned to the guesthouse.

When Miao Shiwen came, He Lanfang followed Mrs. Jiang to the room opposite.

Zhu Xiaomin and Miao Shiwen hadn't seen each other for four months. After coaxing their two children to sleep, they lay down on either side of them and chatted occasionally.

Miao Shiwen sighed: "You don't know, on the 9th, we came together to see such heavy snow, and we were really scared. Fortunately, you repeatedly reminded us to go into the city early."

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "I just feel that I have more time and can arrange it more leisurely."

Miao Shiwen nodded, opened her eyes and glanced at her, and whispered, "Nie Yifei and Shi Meijun actually signed up."

Zhu Xiaomin raised her eyebrows: "Did you run into them taking the exam?"

Miao Shiwen shook her head, not knowing what she was feeling for a moment, and whispered, "We only found out about them after we came back from the exam. It was said that on the 9th, two people slipped away one after the other. After the widow Qian Zhuang found out, she notified her brothers from her mother's family and caught them back. When they came back, Nie Yifei had a broken leg, and they said he fell because the mountain road was difficult to walk on."
