Liu Dayong talked about his second daughter again. Zhou Yuan instinctively thought of the story between him and his eldest daughter and quickly shook his head:

"Uncle, can we talk about this later? I'm not too old now, and I want to focus on my career.

Secondly, I can't guarantee that there is nothing wrong with my health. When I have more money and time, I will go for a check-up. If everything is normal, I will be happy to be your son-in-law. If there is a problem, I will be harming your daughter, so..."

"Okay, okay, don't be so silly. I know my second daughter is repeating her senior year. If she can get into college in the second half of the year, even if you beg her on your knees, she still won't agree."

Liu Dayong waved his hand without waiting for Zhou Yuan to finish speaking, then left his phone number with Zhou Yuan. The two of them went to a teahouse to drink tea and discuss the project in detail.

Liu Dayong told Zhou Yuan that their family had installed a landline phone, which would make it very convenient to contact them in the future.

Rich families are different. In that era, being able to install a landline telephone was very unusual.

The installation fee is a huge expense, and transportation must be cheap.

If the place is too remote, even rich people won’t pretend to be with you.

Influenced by Liu Dayong, Zhou Yuan later went to the post office to apply for the installation of a private landline telephone.

The result was rejected.

Because the distance is too far.

In 1986, China Telecom, China Mobile and China Unicom had not even been established and no one had even heard of them.

So, Zhou Yuan could only laugh.

That day in the teahouse, Zhou Yuan and Liu Dayong signed the project transfer contract. With this contract, Zhou Yuan was considered to have a job.

And the location is not far away, it is in this city, but in another county, it is a water conservancy project.

There are reservoirs, power stations, and other supporting facilities.

Zhou Yuan was responsible for the construction of one of the reservoirs. It is not accurate to say that it was built, it should be said that it was rebuilt.

The previous small reservoir was converted into a large reservoir, and the entire reservoir can hold 100 million cubic meters of water after completion.

It is not particularly big, nor is it particularly small. It can be considered a medium-sized reservoir.

After returning home, Zhou Yuan specially called Liu Yiming, Wang Xiaohua, Zhou Quan and Ouyang Xiaomei together, and told them that he had found a job, and asked them to be ready to leave in a few days.

Of course, just a few of them are not enough, they need to find more people.

However, since most of them are earthwork projects, they do not require very good skills. As long as you have strength, you can do it, and anyone, young or old, male or female, can do it.

Relatively speaking, it was easier to find someone. Since I didn’t prepare anything at the beginning, I didn’t dare to call too many people.

Zhou Yuan decided to call about ten people first, including a few of his brothers, and set off first with about ten to twenty people. After they were settled and the project was fully launched, he would go back home to call more people when more people were needed, or he could hire people locally.

It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he can do the work, and he is responsible for paying wages, safety and technical matters.

Hearing that there was work to do, Liu Yiming and the others were eager to get started, but Ouyang Xiaomei asked with some concern:

"Are you sure the project is okay? What if you go there and the project can't start? And will Liu Dayong fool you?"

"No way, Liu Dayong is the big contractor, and I supply materials to him exclusively, so we have a cooperative relationship.

He doesn't care about this kind of small project. Besides, he only takes 3% of the total cost, which is like getting a lot of money for free. He gets the best deal."

Zhou Yuan was afraid that others would not believe him, so he took out the contract he had signed with Liu Dayong and showed it to everyone.

After Liu Yiming and his team carefully read the contract, they felt that there was no problem.

Ouyang Xiaomei asked again. She frowned and thought for a long time, then said straight to the point:

"Boss, there are some things I don't want to say. It's a bit hurtful, but I can't keep them to myself.

What will happen if we brothers follow you?

How much is the monthly salary? If you make money, that's fine. But if you lose money, will all of us suffer with you?

"Second brother, you're going too far. We're brothers, we can't talk about money. Didn't we agree to share the good and the bad together?"

Before Ouyang Xiaomei finished speaking, Liu Yiming interrupted her and glared at her, expressing his dissatisfaction with her words.

Wang Xiaohua didn't say anything, obviously supporting Ouyang Xiaomei's words.

Zhou Yuan actually had his own thoughts on this matter. Now that Ouyang Xiaomei had spoken out, he thought it would be best to speak out.

As the saying goes, speak frankly and openly. Some things need to be said and cannot be hidden.

So he patted Liu Yiming on the shoulder and said:

“What Xiaomei said makes sense. Although we are partners, I am the legal representative of the construction team. If anything goes wrong, I will be solely responsible.

And you should have a fixed income every month so that you will be motivated to work and I won't feel guilty.

Do you think this is a good idea?

I will calculate your salary from today on. The team will provide meals, and the place where you are staying is usually a work shed, so it won't be charged.

Regarding the salary, we will give you a salary of 100 yuan every month. First of all, I would like to make it clear that 100 yuan is the basic salary and bonuses will be paid separately.

If I make money, I will definitely give you dividends. I won’t let you suffer any loss.”

Considering the price and wage levels in 1986, with food provided, 100 yuan a month on the construction site was neither high nor low, and was considered medium.

However, there is no upper limit on the bonus, so Zhou Yuan thinks everyone should be able to accept it.
