Chapter 1287 Distributing Clothes

Shu Yu said, "When I was recruiting earlier, I said that I needed you to be neat and tidy every day when you came to work. I just checked, and you all had your nails trimmed, your clothes were clean, and you looked energetic. I am very satisfied."

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a surge of joy.

After all, the wages paid by the employer were not low, and they were afraid of doing something wrong. So they got up early in the morning to wash their hair and take a shower. It took them quite a while to get ready before they dared to go out.

“As I’ve told you all before, our workshop makes food. The most important thing about food is cleanliness. If it’s dirty, we can’t stand it, let alone sell it to customers.” I will give each of you a set of clothes and an apron, and I require everyone to wrap their hair with a cloth when they go to work. I hope there will be no hair or anything like that in the food.

The clothes were custom-made by Yiren Pavilion, and Aunt Xiang and the others worked for several days to finish them.

However, the clothes all follow the same pattern and are not too complicated, so they are quick to make.

Shu Yu planned to give each person two sets so they could change and wash them promptly. Only one set could be sent out today; the other set is still being made and will be delivered once it's finished.

After Shu Yu finished speaking, Da Niu stepped forward and together with Ying Xi, carried out the two baskets.

Everyone looked at each other in surprise. Wow, they even had clothes to wear?

Everyone was quite excited, especially those from families that were already struggling financially and who were wearing their only unpatched clothes to work that day. It felt like a windfall.

Moreover, Shu Yufa's coat was a cotton-padded one.

Although the cotton-padded coats weren't thick, compared to their clothes filled with willow catkins, they were like treasures, and the people were reluctant to wear them.

When the clothes arrived, they were even more reluctant to touch them.

If they're given out uniforms before work even starts, how bad can their future treatment be? Just for these uniforms, they have to work hard and never let their employer down.

Therefore, they all agreed with what Shu Yu said, nodding vigorously one by one.

After distributing the clothes, Shu Yu gave everyone a work badge. It was called a work badge, but it was really just a small wooden tag with your name on it that you pinned to your clothes.

After distributing the items, Shu Yu said, "Today is the first day of work. We'll work half a day and then rest in the afternoon. After lunch, you can come and choose your rooms. For now, four people will share a room. If you perform well, you can be moved to a double room or a single room in the future."

"yes."

Everyone excitedly agreed, then ran inside to change into their work clothes and came out, full of energy, following Shu Yu to the factory on the right.

The forty-odd people were divided into two groups: one group was responsible for processing sunflower seeds, and the other group was responsible for pressing oil.

Shu Yu first led a group of people to the courtyard where the melon seeds were processed. She had tried the plain melon seeds before, but one flavor was too monotonous. Now she wanted to try the spiced melon seeds.

The melon seeds had already been soaked in a spice packet that morning, so they were ready now. Shu Yu had someone pour them into a pot and continue to cook them with the spice packet and salt for another 15 minutes.

The pot with the spice packet soon filled with a rich aroma.

Everyone present couldn't help but sniff, "It smells so good."

Shu Yu asked a villager named Luo Chun to watch over him. He had previously worked in a peanut roasting workshop for half a year before the workshop closed down, at which point he returned to the village.

Therefore, he can be considered a semi-technician.
