Chapter 76 Chapter 76 The Yu Family Really Became the Big Boss

The leaders of Qianjin Township hadn't expected Yu Guoliang to actually get the production line. The speed was so incredible that it caught them off guard. They'd assumed there would be some time for preparation, though the possibility of failure wasn't out of the question. But they hadn't anticipated the equipment would be ready in minutes.

The township, naturally, couldn't afford to lag behind, and they worked overtime to complete the necessary paperwork, allowing Yu Guoliang to immediately start building the factory. To show their support, the township even offered the brick kiln a discount.

Yu Guoliang was actually still confused. From the time Liu Mianmian called him to the time he won the bid, it only took a few days. He had been rushing to do things before. Now that he had returned to Qianjin Township and watched the designated factory area being surrounded by a wall, it finally felt a little real. At the same time, he had an incredible feeling that "it was actually done."

However, the people who stayed in the village were even more shocked.

When the Yu family contracted the fish ponds and mountain land, some villagers thought that Yu Guoliang was crazy about making money. But when they found out that everything they had tried was in vain, they realized how powerful he was.

The fish ponds and mountain land in the back had good harvests. Some villagers were jealous and thought that it was just fish farming and farming. They were just not brave enough, otherwise they could make money by contracting the land themselves.

Later, when the oil press opened, those envious people felt that they just didn't have the channels and money to buy oil press equipment. Otherwise, this thing is so easy to operate, who wouldn't know how to do it?

But now, the Yu family is going to open a cannery in the village, and those who used to gossip about them behind their backs no longer have anything to say.

What else can I say? If my family had the money to buy equipment, I could have opened it too?

That’s a cannery, not a small workshop. It’s a factory that can hire people to work. The Yu family has really become a big boss!

Not only those who were envious and gossiping, but even the other villagers were in disbelief. How long had it been? Less than a year, and the Yu family had already opened a factory?!

There were also some smart people who quickly realized that since they were opening a factory, they would have to recruit workers in the future. Even if it was not a state-owned factory, as long as they could be a worker, the income would definitely be better than farming at home. So they quietly came to the door with their things to inquire about the recruitment vacancies.

If someone comes to the house frequently, naturally someone will see them. Once the news spreads, more people will come to the house.

People come to their house every day and praise Yu Yongcheng and Xu Li again and again, saying that they know how to raise children and that they are lucky and blessed. It can be said that the old couple has heard more "sweet words" recently than in the previous decades combined.

Not only the old couple, but also other members of the Yu family, even the two little ones, Yu Huanhuan and Yu Suisui, became the targets of "conquest". Just by going out for a walk, their pockets would be stuffed with candies.

In fact, the Yu family themselves were also confused.

There was a bumper harvest of fish and peanuts before the New Year, and an oil press was opened later, which was also doing a booming business. The family suddenly had money, and the amount of New Year's goods they bought during the Spring Festival was several times more than in previous years.

At that time, everyone felt that this day was so beautiful, and there was no day more beautiful than this one.

The Yu family has become the richest family in the area.

As a result, their family actually decided to open a cannery!

When the village set up a brick kiln factory in the early years, many people wanted to work in the factory. Unfortunately, there were too few workers to recruit, and each village only had a few vacancies. Their family got one vacancy.

As a result, now they want to set up their own factory and recruit people to work for them.

This is so true that when I wake up in the middle of the night and think about it, I have to slap myself to believe it.

However, they soon had time to worry about it, because the factory building in the village began to be built. Their family had to take care of the fish ponds and mountains, the oil press, and supervise the factory building. Everyone was so busy that they were running around.

As for those who want to recruit workers into the factory, Yu Guoliang has only one sentence: This is a decision made by my youngest son, we don’t have the final say.

Finally, everyone's enthusiasm for coming to seek employment was temporarily extinguished.

While the work in Qianjin Township was in full swing, Liu Mianmian was also busy. She had Qian Aizhen spread the word about a job opening at the military industrial complex, recruiting eight skilled workers. Priority would be given to those with previous experience working on the canning production line at the military factory. Also preferred were those with family members who had experience working on the canning production line and who could master basic skills through self-study. The work location would be Qianjin Township, with a base salary of 200 yuan plus bonuses, and room and board provided.

At first, everyone said that it was beyond their capabilities for a private factory to come to the military industrial compound to recruit workers, and the work location was in the countryside. Running from the south city to the countryside to work, isn't that crazy?

It wasn't until they heard that the base salary was 200 yuan, including food and accommodation, and there was a bonus at the end of the year that those who had been mocking the company suddenly fell silent.

Not to mention how much the bonus is, even if there is no bonus, the salary of 200 yuan including food and accommodation is higher than that of the factory leaders. What's more, Qian Aizheng also said that if the factory's performance is good in the future, the salary will be increased every year.

Not to mention the unemployed young people at home, many old workers with more than ten or twenty years of work experience were tempted by this. After all, people like them who don't have much expenses in their daily lives may be able to save more than two thousand yuan in a year, which means that working for a year can cover the cost of their son getting married.

Of course, since the salary is high, the requirements are naturally high as well.

Although individual businesses were flourishing at that time and everyone knew that they could make money as individual business owners, they still felt that state-owned factories were more secure. Therefore, the technical workers in the military factories had no intention of resigning to work in private enterprises.

However, those who have unemployed young people at home are all interested in it. Although the job location is in the countryside and it is a private enterprise, it is still a job with a high salary. It is better than staying at home doing nothing and eating idle meals, right?

So many people went to find those technicians who had worked on the canning production line and asked them to help teach them. For a while, those technicians became very popular.

While some people are concerned, there are naturally some who sing a different tune. For example, several families who had participated in the bidding before said some sarcastic things, saying things like "It's better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix" and "You will become a countryman after going to the countryside." And they said that even if you talk big now and raise the salary to 200 yuan, you may not be able to pay even 20 yuan if the factory goes bankrupt. In short, they were all speaking negatively.

Qian Aizhen happened to hear someone talking, so she picked up a broom and hit the man a few times, scolding him for being a poor man who still acted like a troublemaker.

That person: “???”

He said he had enough money to buy a production line, so how could he be poor? Qian Aizheng said that the production line goes to whoever offers the highest price, and you haven’t even bought the production line, so how can you be poor? This left Qian Aizheng speechless.

Qian Aizhen was angry not only because Liu Mianmian gave her 50 yuan for labor, but also because Jiang Hongmei invested money and bought a share, and agreed to give her all the dividends. Qian Aizhen now felt that this cannery was almost the same as hers, and whoever went against the cannery was going against her.

When the news of recruitment was released, Liu Mianmian asked Yu Wan to help contact an old professor from the Mechanical Department of Nancheng University, and asked the old professor to go to the military factory to inspect the production line. At the same time, he made an appointment with the person to help train those technical workers.

In the end, a total of thirteen people signed up from the military factory, and there was not much choice, so Liu Mianmian simply let them all participate in the training together.

Among these thirteen people, ten are young people from military industrial compounds, and the other three came here on their own after hearing the news. Two of them asked others to find technical workers from the military factory to teach them for a few days, and the other one is a temporary worker in the machinery factory. According to his own account, he has studied many machine drawings by himself and has a certain technical foundation.

At the end of the training, it was the temporary worker at the machinery factory named Liang Rui who gave Liu Mianmian a surprise. According to the old professor, this person had a certain talent in this area, but he had never had the opportunity to study systematically before.

Liang Rui's father died quite early, and his biological mother married a regular worker in a machinery factory with him. His stepfather's family already had four children, so naturally they could not help him.

The temporary job was secured for him by his neighbor, a master chef who saw his talent. He started as an apprentice and worked for five years before becoming a temporary worker.

In addition to Liang Rui, the other two who signed up on their own initiative after hearing the news also learned very well and were particularly hardworking.

However, some of the young people in the military industrial compound did not have the talent to be technical workers. However, after observing them for a few days, Liu Mianmian found that although these people were young, they had down-to-earth personalities, so she kept them.

These people were all a few years younger than her, and the original owner had never met them when she was in the military industrial compound.

According to these people, although Yu Guoliang was the one who bought the production line, word had already spread throughout the military industrial complex that Yu Guoliang was the eldest brother of her adoptive parents in the countryside. Many speculated that she might have opened the cannery. Those who had conflicts with the original owner did not sign up this time, which saved Liu Mianmian a lot of trouble. Otherwise, she would have had to put on a show in front of them.

Just when the technical workers' training was almost finished, Yu Guoliang from Qianjin Township called and said that the factory was almost completed, and asked Liu Mianmian to take some time to take a look and recruit workers.

However, before going to Qianjin Township, Liu Mianmian was first visited by Wu Heng.

"Are you really that big-hearted? Aren't you afraid that I will run away with the money?" Wu Heng was speechless. After they agreed to open a video hall together, Liu Mianmian appeared once when she gave him money. After giving him the money, she disappeared and never showed up again.

The last time Wu Heng saw something like this was when someone borrowed two hundred yuan from him, saying he was taking his father who had broken his leg to see a doctor. It turned out that his father was fine, but he was gone.

Really, except for those who owe debts and don't pay them back, Wu Heng has never seen anyone disappear so completely.

He asked Xu Haitang, and Xu Haitang said that her boss was very busy recently and might not have time. She also thought he was making a fuss. The boss had already given him the money, so what could he be worried about?

So Wu Heng found out that except for the time when Liu Mianmian first took over the western restaurant and was at work every day, she almost didn't care about anything after Xu Haitang was in charge of the western restaurant. It is said that her philosophy is, don't employ people if you don't trust them, and don't doubt people if you employ them, and give 100% power to others.

Xu Haitang was very grateful for her boss's behavior and felt that it was a manifestation of her boss's 100% trust in her. She even said that if Wu Heng could not complete the work independently, she would doubt Wu Heng's work ability.

Wu Heng: “…”

I always feel something is weird.

However, now that he knew Liu Mianmian's style, Wu Heng was no longer in a hurry. He simply went at his own pace, looking for a venue and handling the formalities. He only came to Liu Mianmian when he was almost done.

Liu Mianmian smiled and said, "What am I afraid of? Your dance hall is worth much more." She sought a partner with an experienced and capable person like Wu Heng just to save herself some effort.

Wu Heng looked at her helplessly and said, "We've found a venue, and the basic decoration is done. I've asked someone to get a TV and a VCR, and they should arrive soon. Now we're just waiting for your videotape, and we'll be ready to open soon."

Liu Mianmian took out a notebook and said, "The video room will be set up like this. The martial arts room, romance room, and animation room can be separated. Then, we'll get some cabinets at the cashier and stock some sunflower seeds, peanuts, biscuits, etc.... We'll also have a marketing plan for the opening later. See if there's anything that needs to be modified or supplemented."

Wu Heng flipped through it casually, quickly put away his nonchalant expression, sat up straight, and began to read it seriously.

After a while, he raised his head and said, "Have you been thinking about this at home recently?" He felt that he might have wronged Liu Mianmian.

Liu Mianmian leaned back in the recliner: "Ah, that's not the case. I just bought two canning production lines recently and I'm busy with the cannery."

Wu Heng: “???”
