Lin Lu - a Kyoto University student with a promising future.
Song Chen - a military officer with a bright future.
Due to a life-saving grace, the two were forced to marry and have child...
As soon as two o'clock arrived, Song Chen rode his bike to the factory on time for training.
What he didn't expect was that there were still so many people waiting for him to give an explanation.
Although Song Zidong had given him a heads-up in advance, he was still frightened by the crowd in front of him.
As soon as Song Chen approached, everyone rushed forward to surround him and asked him why he was not selected.
He Xiaomei: "We grew up together, how come you won't even give me a chance?"
She went home and boasted to her mother-in-law and her husband that she would definitely be selected.
"Did you forget to write my name?"
Song Chen saw that she was still wearing the same red dress as that day, even the dirt on the clothes remained the same.
"Song Lao Si, what's wrong with you? Didn't your sister-in-law tell you that I'm her nephew's wife? Why isn't my name on the list?"
"And me, there's no name for me either. You can't do this. Our two families are relatives."
Chirping, Song Chen's old injury is really about to relapse.
"Those without names were not selected. I only look at whether they are suitable, not relationships. Those 25 people can stay, and the others can go back."
No one moved. Everyone wanted an explanation, or a promise.
"Hey, what are you guys doing?" Li Xianglian arrived a few steps late, and her son-in-law was surrounded by these cannibalistic women.
They were all women, so Song Chen couldn't do anything and had to rely on Li Xianglian for help.
She pushed these people aside with all her might and raised her voice, "Did you hear that? Those who weren't selected, go back. You still think this job has no barriers to entry and anyone can get in if they want."
A slightly plump woman asked, "Why don't you want us? We have plenty of strength and can definitely work just as well as them."
Someone agreed: "Yeah, our kind of work is efficient."
Song Chen explained: "I'm in a beverage factory. Food safety is of paramount importance. We must choose some with good hygiene practices."
What this means is that those who were not selected have poor hygiene habits.
"How are we dirty? We only take a bath once a week."
"That's right, we're not dirty. You're insulting us."
Song Chen was now at a loss for words.
I had no choice but to come up with a trick: "If you continue to cause trouble here, if the factory is profitable in the future, we will definitely not consider you when recruiting more workers."
A naked threat.
I was really threatened by him.
Everyone is betting on this possibility.
"Then we have a deal. If the factory expands in the future, you must come to us."
Song Chen said: "Go and improve your hygiene habits, and we will definitely consider you first."
Big guy: "Okay, let's take a bath once every two days."
There's really no need to tell Song Chen about this.
"Please disperse. If you continue to cause trouble, I will call the police and have them handle it."
Use both soft and hard tactics, tempting and threatening at the same time.
By the time of the Chinese New Year, the news of her daughter-in-law's heroic deeds had spread to the surrounding villages.
Within a few minutes, all the idlers had dispersed.
Song Chen let the twenty-five people into the factory.
The factory uniforms have been ordered and delivered. "Everyone, choose one and put it on over your clothes. I'll show you how to do it later."
Li Xianglian: "I'll try some too, let me learn."
Knowing that the training would start today, Li Xianglian was very excited and wanted to come and take a look and learn it herself.
Song Chen called Song Zidong and asked, "Where are you?"
The first batch of apples in the orchard have ripened, so Song Zidong was asked to send a few baskets for processing.
Song Zidong: "It's almost there, it's almost there."
Not long after I hung up the phone, I heard the sound of a three-wheeled motorcycle.
Driving into the factory yard, Song Zidong turned off the engine and jumped out of the car, "Uncle, I'm here."
Song helped him move the apples into the factory, ten baskets in total.
"Okay, go back."
Song Zidong, "I don't have anything to do over there, so I'll take a look too. I'm quite curious."
Song Chen also put on his white factory coat and said, "What are you curious about? What's so good about it? Then you will be responsible for washing and peeling the apples."
So many? Song Zidong was dumbfounded. It would probably be midnight before he finished all this.
Song Chen: "I can't count on you for more than a month."
Song Zidong laughed and saw that everyone had new clothes on. He asked, "Do I need to wear some too?"
When the factory was being renovated, Song Zidong came to watch for a few days. The machines looked very advanced, so his uncle never let him in again after that.
"Both."
There are only two small compartments on the side for everyone to do preparatory work and rest. Once you enter the factory, you have to wear factory uniforms at all times.
"Two or three people per machine. You choose your own team members. If each person produces 300 bottles a day, you will get full wages. If the production is insufficient, the salary will be deducted according to the number of bottles missing."
After hearing this, some people began to back off. Three hundred bottles, even the donkey in the production team was not that powerful.
"Director, can you please give us a little less? We won't be able to finish 300 bottles in two days."
Song Chen said indifferently: "If you don't want to do this, you can leave now."
Well, who wouldn't want to do it? I bargained with him just to make things easier for myself.
In fact, in order to get their full wages, they will finish the work even if it takes until midnight.
Everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak.
Li Xianglian eased the atmosphere: "Xiao Chen isn't the type to overdo things. Since he ordered this much for you, he must have thought about it long ago and figured it out based on how much you can complete before leaving get off work."
"Yes, we are too narrow-minded. Director, please teach us how to do it."
The apples were moved to the washing room. "Everyone, wash and peel the apples first."
There is nothing much to teach you about washing and peeling apples. Just wash every side of the apple and peel it thinly.
Two or three people worked together to finish ten baskets of apples in more than two hours.
"Everyone come with me."
Song Chen walked up to a machine that he had participated in designing.
A large machine is composed of several small machines, including a jacketed kettle, a beater, a centrifuge, a homogenizer, an ultra-high temperature sterilizer and a filling machine.
The machine is not fully automatic. You need to add fruit and water into it yourself, press a button, and it will automatically squeeze, separate, filter, and sterilize the juice. Finally, the juice flows out through the tube and is canned into bottles.
Before adding fruit and pressing the button, employees need to place the beverage bottle under the juice pipe connected to the machine.
The work actually does not require much effort. In simple terms, there are four steps: place the empty bottle - add fruit and water - press the button to open - press the button to close - tighten the bottle cap.
Song Chen first demonstrated it to them, and in a few minutes several bottles of drinks were filled, and everyone began to gain confidence again.
It’s not difficult at all!
Even Li Xianglian, a sixty-year-old woman, could understand it.
"You guys try it first."
