The next morning, after getting up, Xu Zhixin, at the invitation of the Cheng family, ate the porridge cooked by Shi Cuihua with the Cheng family, and then went to the drying yard with the Cheng family. Unexpectedly, she met people from the educated youth site halfway there.

Tang Ruowen, who was walking in front of a group of educated youth, immediately spotted Xu Zhixin and the Cheng family. She ignored the Cheng family and waved to Xu Zhixin.

"Comrade Xu, it's great to meet you here. It saves us from having to go out of our way to look for you. Come here quickly, we have something to tell you." Tang Ruowen's face was full of a warm smile.

What a coincidence! I was just about to look for her and met her here. Is this considered a blessing from heaven?

Xu Zhixin looked at Tang Ruowen with a flicker in her eyes. She had never seen her smile so warmly at her before. Thinking about how she had suddenly become nice to Lu Pinjie and let Lu Pinjie move to the educated youth camp, she might have some plan. Why did she feel like she was plotting against her?

How would she plan for herself?

Suddenly, Xu Zhixin noticed a large group of educated youth opposite her, all of them smiled at her, each one brighter and more enthusiastic than the other. Some of them showed ingratiating smiles, and some even had expectant eyes. Then she thought of what Tang Ruowen said, "We have something to discuss with you," and she had a bad feeling in her heart, but also became curious.

She wanted to know what these people wanted from her and what Tang Ruowen was planning.

Thinking about this, Xu Zhixin said to the Cheng family, "Captain uncle, aunt, you and your family go to the drying yard first. I'll go over to see what Tang Zhiqing and the others want to talk to me about. I'll go to the drying yard as soon as possible."

The Cheng family nodded and looked at Tang Ruowen and the other educated youth curiously, wanting to know what they wanted to see Xu Zhixin about. But there was no problem. They all thought that since Tang Ruowen asked Xu Zhixin to go over there instead of telling them in front of them, it was obvious that she didn't want them to know, so she wouldn't tell them even if they asked.

If you want to know what Tang Ruowen and the other educated youth are looking for Xu Zhixin for, just ask Xu Zhixin and you'll know.

After watching the Cheng family and Xu Zhixin separate and walk away, Tang Ruowen and the other educated youth went up to Xu Zhixin.

"What do you want from me? Tell me." Xu Zhixin said with her red lips.

"I heard that you are going to set up a factory and recruit workers. You see, we are all educated youth. We should help each other, take care of each other, and support each other. Shouldn't you recruit all of us into your factory as workers?" Tang Ruowen didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

Hearing this, Xu Zhixin understood everything instantly, and a hint of realization flashed in her eyes.

So that's what it is. That's the idea.

"I am planning to recruit educated youth into the factory. I will recruit three of them. There will be an exam. If you want to work in my factory, you can come and take the exam. I will pick the three with the best scores." Xu Zhixin said.

She felt that there was nothing wrong with her method of recruiting workers and thought that the educated youth would agree with it. However, she did not expect that after hearing her words, the educated youth, including Lu Pinjie, frowned, except Zhu Yong and Wei Hongzhi.

"What! You only recruit three educated youth? This is too few! How many workers do you want to recruit for your factory?" Tang Zhihan shouted with dissatisfaction.

"Thirty..."

"Since you are going to recruit thirty people, why not recruit all of us educated youth? All of us educated youth added up are less than thirty... Why only recruit three educated youth? And we have to take an exam and choose the best ones?"

Xu Zhixin had just answered, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by Tang Ruowen, who also questioned her with a dissatisfied look on her face.

"That's right, why only recruit three educated youths and not all of us?" The other educated youths asked, except Zhu Yong and Wei Hongzhi.

"Xu Zhiqing must have her considerations and reasons." Wei Hongzhi spoke up for Xu Zhixin.

"Yes. She..." Zhu Yong nodded in agreement and wanted to speak for Xu Zhixin, but was interrupted by Tang Ruowen.

"What considerations could she have, what reasons could she have!" Tang Ruowen glanced at Xu Zhixin, "I really can't think of what considerations she had, what reasons, why she didn't admit all of us educated youth...Xu Zhiqing, please tell me."

"Yes, you said!" All the educated youth except Zhu Yong and Wei Hongzhi nodded.

Zhu Yong and Wei Hongzhi both frowned, with a hint of worry in their eyes. They both felt that the educated youth were forcing Xu Zhixin a bit, and were afraid that Xu Zhixin would be unhappy.
