The factory's workspace and equipment are already in place, only the people are missing.
That day, Gu Jingheng brought a group of people to the factory address specified by Zhou Suisui. Zhou Suisui was working with the newly arrived equipment inside.
In addition to some relatively advanced sewing machines, there are also some cutting instruments used for making clothes. Just these things, even a child of six years old would need half a day to learn, let alone others.
As soon as Gu Jingheng entered the room, he saw Zhou Suisui working diligently.
"I've brought all the people to you. Go out and see if they're enough." Gu Jingheng said with a smile.
Zhou Suisui went out with him. As soon as they went out, they saw at least thirty people in the yard, both men and women, but there were more women.
Gu Jingheng knew that it was better for women to work in garment factories, so he tried to bring women to her.
There are men too, just fewer of them. Some are standing, some are using crutches, there are all kinds of people.
Zhou Suisui was not intimidated by the crowd. "Hello everyone, I'm Gu Jingheng's wife. My name is Zhou Suisui, and I'm also a military wife."
"Everyone should have known what we're here for before you came. To be honest, working in a garment factory isn't very hard, and you won't have to be exposed to the elements. But I do have one request: if you want to work here, you need to sign a confidentiality agreement. My design drawings can't be shared with anyone else. Is that acceptable to you?"
The people below began to discuss at once. One of the women looked at Zhou Suisui and asked, "Boss, what about the salary?"
"Don't call me boss, everyone. Those older than me can just call me sister, and those younger than me can call me sister. Don't worry about your salary, I pay you thirty-five yuan a month."
As soon as Zhou Suisui said this, the people below spoke even louder than before.
Thirty-five dollars a month, no physical labor, no exposure to wind and sun. Is there such a good job? It's really pie in the sky.
Although Gu Jingheng had told them about the situation here before they came, they still didn't expect the treatment here to be so good.
They are all old, weak, sick and disabled people in the military region, and most of them are actually families of soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country.
They have no source of income and can only rely on government subsidies.
But even with subsidies, if something really happens, this money will be a drop in the bucket. It is already good enough that the subsidies given by the state can keep them from going hungry.
So they really need a job, but they are old, disabled, or they are all women and elderly, so it is really difficult for them to find a good job.
"Sister Zhou, you gave too much." A man said embarrassedly.
He is a retired veteran. Because he fought in the battlefield, his legs are disabled and he is now a cripple.
Zhou Suisui looked at the older man and said with a smile, "Comrade, you are all soldiers defending our country. You are the people I admire most. Moreover, this money is not much. You have all worked hard for it. This is what you deserve."
"After we sign the contract, I'll teach you how to use the equipment. Everyone, study hard. We'll officially start work next Monday. Also, this is a garment factory, so we need you to be careful and patient. You absolutely cannot cut corners on the workmanship. Do you understand?"
"Got it!" everyone said loudly.
Are you kidding? If you have such a good job, you should grab it.
Zhou Suisui signed the contracts that had been prepared long ago with everyone, and then began to teach them how to operate the machines.
The machine is quite advanced and easy to operate. We all learned how to use it in just one afternoon.
Now that we have learned it, we all started working after a few days.
Zhou Suisui has drawn a lot of design drawings in the past few days. The size data in them are very detailed and have to be made into fixed sizes.
The garment factory didn't plan to hold any opening ceremony, and just planned to start production quietly.
A woman went home and said to her mother-in-law, "Mom, I finally have a job. My daughter can go to school, and I have money to treat your illness!"
The woman looked very happy.
An elderly woman asked worriedly, "Jinhua, what kind of job are you looking for? Is it dangerous? Is it tiring? If it's too tiring, don't do it. After all, we have subsidies and can make a living."
The woman named Jinhua shook her head and said, "Mom, don't worry. This job isn't tiring at all. Today is my first day at work, and I sit down every day. It's a garment factory. The owner is also a soldier's wife. She opened it, and they only recruit people from the army, like me. The salary is also very high, 35 yuan a month!"
"So much? This comrade is too nice to pay you such a high salary?" the old woman said in disbelief.
"That's right. And I heard that she also has a clothing store. It's said that the business is very good and it's well-known. She is so amazing." Jinhua said admiringly.
"She... is she deliberately taking care of you military families?"
Jinhua nodded and said, "That should be the case. Her husband is a soldier. I feel like she's deliberately taking care of us."
"Then your boss is simply a living Bodhisattva. It's really not easy to have such a kind heart."
"That's right, and she's pretty too, she looks very young."
"This girl is really kind-hearted, Jinhua, you have met a good person. From now on, our little girl will be able to go to school and study with other children."
"Yes, Mom, don't worry. With me here, our family's life will get better and better."
This girl named Jinhua is actually a family member of a martyr. The girl is the daughter of her and her deceased husband. They only have this one child.
Now that her husband has died, the little girl is her only bloodline. Jinhua loves her husband very much, so she will raise the little girl well.
This old woman was actually Jinhua's mother-in-law. Jinhua felt that even if her husband died, she would still take care of her mother-in-law until the end of her life.
Her mother-in-law only had this one son, and her father-in-law had passed away long ago. If she didn't take care of her anymore, her mother-in-law would be left alone and helpless. Jinhua couldn't bear it.
Their family has always lived in poverty, but now that Jinhua has such a good job, their life will be much better in the future.
Zhou Suisui's goal was achieved. Because this factory relieved a lot of pressure on the military region, the army also specially commended Gu Jingheng.
Now Gu Jingheng's comrades are envious of him. Having such a good wife, Gu Jingheng is also honored and has gained a lot of face from his superiors.
