Yun Huaying had nothing else to say. After a moment's thought, she added, "Brother Tianye, the soy products factory is a food factory. The goods produced are different from those produced by other state-owned factories. You must pay close attention to food hygiene and ensure that they are clean and healthy."
"If there's something wrong with the food, and it causes food poisoning and someone dies, it will be a fatal blow to the team. You, as village cadres, will bear the greatest responsibility. You should be aware of the consequences, so you must not be careless or negligent in this regard."
"Also, you've recruited a lot of people from other communes. Some of them might be jealous of the team's success and do some unethical things behind their backs. You must manage them carefully. The items they bring must be carefully inspected, and you must assign shrewd and fair people from the team to supervise them. You must not allow these bad apples to ruin the factory that the team has worked so hard to set up."
What she said was very important. Several village cadres looked at each other and nodded in unison: "Okay."
Yun Huaying had nothing else to say. After they counted the money, she wrote a receipt and stated the purpose of the donation. She also asked Tian Ye to help her get a certificate to return to the city, and then went back to prepare dinner.
Lin Shan and Li Bin got off work early, and both came back to help her fetch water and cook. When the team notified them to distribute the meat, Li Bin went to collect all the meat for the educated youth. After discussing with everyone, he decided to keep half for tomorrow and cut the other half to send to Yun Huaying to cook.
When the educated youth came home from work, the dishes were already prepared and two simple tables had been set up in the open space outside. They brought their own bowls, chopsticks and stools, and started eating after saying hello.
There are not many dishes prepared tonight, but the portions are very large, mostly meat dishes, a large bowl of fried pork with dried tofu, a serving of fried bitter melon with pork, braised pork liver, a pot of boiled fish soup, a serving of cold tomatoes, and a large bowl of boiled beans.
A dozen people ate up all the food on the table. After the meal, Jiang Yuan, Wang Huiyu, Yin Mei and others took the initiative to wash the dishes.
Yun Huaying went back to the room and got some fresh fruits, filling a sieve with them for everyone to eat. Fruits like strawberries and grapes were the most popular among the female comrades, and they all rushed to stuff them into their mouths.
After everyone gathered around, Yun Huaying began to talk business: "I'm leaving the day after tomorrow. I've already completed the procedures for returning to the city. Do you want to leave?"
"Yes."
They dream about it, but those who have some connections and abilities in their families have left, and those who remain here are from ordinary families with no hope of returning to the city, so they can only wait and see helplessly.
"Do you want to go to Haicheng?" Yun Huaying asked them again.
"Yun Huaying, can you take us away?" Qiu Shiyan was observant and heard the hidden meaning in her words.
"I can take you to Haicheng, but I can't arrange it anywhere else."
As soon as she said this, everyone except Lin Shan, Jiang Yuan, and Li Bin, who knew about the situation, changed their expressions with excitement. Wang Huiyu grabbed her arm and said, "Yun Huaying, are you serious? You're not kidding us, are you?"
"Do I look like the kind of person who likes to lie and tease people?" Yun Huaying asked back.
"no."
They were sure of this; she was not that kind of person.
"Yun Huaying, we all want to leave here. Can you really take all of us away?" Qiu Shiyan confirmed with her again.
"Can."
Yun Huaying then told them about the Xia Haicheng Pharmaceutical Factory, only mentioning that it was about to start recruiting workers, and did not talk about the factory's past and plans. After all, there was no need to tell them these things.
After a brief introduction, he continued, "If you're willing, I can arrange for you to work at the pharmaceutical factory. The salary and benefits haven't been decided yet. I'll go over and discuss it with the other factory leaders. In short, it will be similar to the benefits of employees at the local state-owned factories in Haicheng."
"Yun Huaying, I do." Wang Huiyu was the first to answer excitedly.
"I do."
The others raised their hands almost at the same time, without hesitation.
They all left. Yang Min, with her big belly, was filled with anxiety. She didn't want to miss this opportunity, but she was pregnant and would give birth in two months. She didn't want to be left behind. She looked anxious: "Yun Zhiqing, can I..."
"If we're going to leave, of course we'll leave together."
"You are in the late stages of pregnancy and will give birth soon. I will not take Qiu Shiyan away and leave you here. I can take you both with me and provide some convenience and assistance. The future living arrangements are for you and your wife to discuss and decide."
"Okay, okay."
Yang Min nodded repeatedly. As long as she could leave with them, it would be fine. As for other matters, they would not cause her too much trouble.
Seeing that they all agreed to go to Haicheng, Yun Huaying continued to make arrangements: "I need half a month to deal with trivial matters. I will send a telegram once the arrangements are completed. You should also arrange your own affairs during this half month. The news that I am taking you away as a group should not be announced to anyone else for the time being. I will not consider making any arrangements for anyone else besides you."
"Okay." Everyone responded in unison.
Jobs in the city are very hard to come by, especially in big cities. If they leak the news, someone else in the team might come looking for her, which would cause trouble for her. They would not do anything stupid that would affect their work.
Thinking that they would be able to leave here in just half a month, Wang Huiyu and the others were so excited that they covered their faces with their hands. The female educated youth covered their faces with tears in their eyes, and the male educated youth also had red eyes.
Although they were not returning to their respective hometowns but going to another unfamiliar big city, Haicheng, this was a very rare opportunity for them.
They have been looking forward to returning to the city for not just one or two days, but one, two, or even three or four years. They used to think that they would have to stay here for the rest of their lives to do farm work, and even get married here. They always felt unwilling and reluctant when they thought about it, but this time they can finally leave.
Everyone was crying with joy, and they all regained the high spirits they had when they first came to the countryside, and were all full of longing for a new future.
They talked until very late that night, mainly about work at the pharmaceutical factory. Most of them came here to do farm work after graduation. They had only heard about the work in the state-owned factory from their relatives and elders, but they had never been to a pharmaceutical factory and were not clear about the specific work tasks. Now that they had nothing to do, they asked her more about it so that they would not be completely clueless when they went to work in Haicheng in the future.
The next day, Yun Huaying packed her luggage at home and also helped Lin Shan and the others pack some things. She rode her bicycle to the county town early in the morning to send the things by mail. As for her own things, she put them all in the space.
