Chapter 196: Antunjing City Haiyu Food Processing Factory officially started operation...
At six o'clock sharp, the broadcast started on time.
"The early morning show is over." Yu Zhile said.
At the same time, she supported her body with one hand, sat cross-legged, and wiped her other hand with Zhou Yuesheng's clothes.
Zhou Yuesheng was stunned for a few seconds, then sat up and leaned over to kiss her.
Yu Zhile leaned against his chest and kissed him lightly, reminding him, "We agreed to meet at nine o'clock. I still need to take a shower, so I don't have much time."
"There's hot water in the kettle, and there's still time." Zhou Yuesheng transformed into a koala again, opening his arms to hug her, "I'm going to the wild for training, and it'll take a long time before I can come back."
Yu Zhile avoided him and joked: "Captain Zhou, have you ever heard of a poem, about love between two people——"
"I don't want to know." Zhou Yuesheng interrupted her.
"Okay, stop playing dirty." Yu Zhile kissed him, "Go get some hot water and change your clothes, I'll change the sheets."
Zhou Yuesheng got out of bed reluctantly and walked away.
Yu Zhile opened the top cabinet of the small wardrobe, and inside were more than a dozen sets of neatly stacked sheets. She picked one at random and changed it.
By the time she went out with the dirty sheets, Zhou Yuesheng had already washed up and prepared hot water.
At that moment, there happened to be a knock on the door outside the yard.
"Go and see who it is." Yu Zhile closed the bathroom door and left a message, "I want to drink soy milk and eat vegetarian buns for breakfast."
Zhou Yuesheng agreed, then walked to the yard and opened the door.
The people who came were Xiaobao and Qi Er, and their mental states were completely different. The former was full of energy, while the latter's eyelids were so heavy that they could barely open a thin slit.
Qi Er yawned, tears welling up in his eyes, and said, "Brother Zhou, I haven't slept all night. Can I borrow your sofa to catch up on some sleep?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his arm and handed over the thermos bucket containing breakfast.
"There is a camp bed in the cloakroom. There are pillows and quilts. You can go and sleep on it." Zhou Yuesheng replied.
After saying that, he remembered that Yu Zhile still had to change clothes before going out, so he put breakfast on the dining table, then grabbed Qi Er by the back of the collar and led him to the study.
Then he moved the camp bed to the study, put Qi Er, who was sleeping soundly on the desk, onto it, and finally drew the curtains and closed the door.
In the living room, Xiaobao was sitting at the dining table obediently. When he saw him come out, he pushed the thermos bucket towards him and said, "Soy milk, buns, and vegetarian noodles."
"Sister just wants to eat soy milk buns today." Zhou Yuesheng rubbed his hair and said with a smile, "Xiaobao and sister are in sync."
After hearing his words, Xiaobao's eyes lit up. He pushed one of the thermos bottles to him and hugged the other one like a baby.
Zhou Yuesheng burst out laughing, sitting opposite him, and enjoying the fun with him.
Not long after, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped.
When Yu Zhile came out of the bathroom, all steamy, all the breakfast had been placed on the table, and two people, one big and one small, were sitting upright waiting for her.
"Xiaobao, I haven't seen you for a few months. Do you miss me?" She pinched Xiaobao's face and teased him, "Have you forgotten me?"
Yu Chi shook his head quickly, and the silly hair on both sides of his body jumped up and down like the beads of a rattle.
Yu Zhile burst out laughing, stopped teasing him, and ate his breakfast well.
After the three of them had breakfast, Zhou Yuesheng prepared to go to the training area. He had to lead the team to a field training tomorrow and would not be able to take a vacation for the next month.
As soon as he went out, he ran into Yu Haiguang, who was driving his daughter, and the two of them greeted each other briefly.
After a while, Yu Zhile changed his clothes, came out holding Yu Chi's hand, got in the car and set off.
Yu Haiguang asked about the recent situation of Yu Chaochuan and Yu Peilan, and also asked a few questions about the arrangements for the food factory employees to go to Beijing in batches.
The father and daughter chatted casually, the journey was not boring and time passed quickly.
Zhang Wenxin and Yu Chuyue had already brought all the documents and were waiting in front of the Public Security Bureau. They waved and greeted them. When Zhile and the other two approached, they all teased Yu Chi.
After some laughter, the group finally came in. Because they were going to transfer their household registration in large numbers, they had to wait for the staff who were specifically responsible for handling the matter.
While waiting, Zhang Wenxin mentioned the itinerary for others last night.
Starting tomorrow, Zhang Haimei and others will need to stay in the factory all day to learn theoretical knowledge about the production line-related machines, so they took advantage of today's free time and took the early bus to the city center together.
"Xiao Zhao will definitely take them shopping near the department store." Yu Zhile smiled, "After we finish our work, we will go meet up with them and go back to the factory together in the afternoon."
Zhang Wenxin agreed.
Several people waited for more than ten minutes before the person in charge of the relevant work hurried over.
During the entire document review process, the staff treated them very well and did not show any neglect just because they were outsiders.
After confirming that the information was correct, the staff stamped it promptly and efficiently.
After leaving the Public Security Bureau, Yu Haiguang drove to the department store. When he was near his destination, he could slow down the car and saw a group of people led by Chen Zhao from a distance.
However, when he found a place to park the car, things suddenly became a little wrong, and they seemed to have an argument with another group of people.
"Chen Zhao, why are you in Jing City?" someone on the other side shouted, "Shouldn't you be in the countryside harvesting wheat at this time?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another companion laughed at him: "No, it should be rolling up your trouser legs to go to the sea and pick up those dead fish and rotten shrimps for dinner."
Their voices were loud and they spoke with gritted teeth, as if they wanted to eat Chen Zhao alive.
"Are they the people who quarreled with you before?" Lan Yuanyuan asked in a low voice.
Chen Zhao nodded in response.
The story of his battle against the Ten-Man Group spread in the village for a while. After the others realized what was happening, they all puffed out their chests and stood with their hands on their hips, ready to join in.
"They came prepared and wanted to make me look bad in public first." Chen Zhao saw through the thoughts of the ten-man group at a glance, "Everyone, don't fall into their trap, lest we ruin the reputation of our Haiyu brand."
Seeing that he didn't fall into the trap, the other party looked at each other and continued to raise his voice: "Are you a deserter relying on your family's connections? Did they put you in the steel mill or the machinery factory?"
These two factories are notoriously difficult to enter in Beijing, and as soon as their names are announced, passers-by will look at them with awe.
“Humph, I’m not one of you guys—” Chen Zhao crossed his arms and silently said “waste” to them, and continued, “I returned to Beijing City with a side job in the village.”
The ten-member team understood his silent words, and they were so angry that their faces turned red and their necks became thick, and they started to mock him. They were belittling him and the sideline group in their words, but they even got the village name wrong.
At this time, Zhang Haizhu stood up and refuted loudly: "Our Haiyu Village is not what you said! We have a processing plant in the village, and we have also contracted the seafood of the sideline groups of the villages within a radius of ten miles!"
The other members of the sideline group echoed in unison, and their momentum immediately overwhelmed the group of ten.
The onlookers caught the word "Haiyu" in their words and discussed it in a low voice.
"You and Chen Zhao are in the same group, so if you say so, then it is so?" The leader of the ten-man group snorted and refuted with his neck stiff.
Yu Zhile sneered twice, and the three sisters walked into the center of everyone's vision together.
"Who are you? Don't meddle in other people's business. I will report you too." The leader frowned.
Yu Zhile said: "You slandered our colleagues in public, and we have the responsibility to clarify for them."
While she was talking, Zhang Wenxin and Yu Chuyue took out the documents that had just been stamped, and also took out the work permits that they had ordered in advance.
"Chen Zhao is the workshop director of the Haiyu Food Processing Factory. He returned to Beijing through legitimate channels." Zhang Wenxin explained.
People around came in to look at the documents and work permits.
After seeing the red seal at the signature, some of them who had heard the rumors about the bus driver nodded suddenly and believed what the driver said.
The ten-man group knew they were in the wrong and left in disgrace.
"Director, are you still hiring at your factory? My niece has studied at university for two years and is very good at math."
"Director, what do you sell in your factory? I've never heard of it before."
Curious passers-by came forward to ask questions, wanting to know more and have some topics to talk about during their leisure time.
Yu Zhile did not miss this opportunity for publicity. She briefly answered questions about personnel matters and focused on promoting the first snack they planned to launch - kelp crisps.
"Kelp crisps? Are they delicious?" someone looked puzzled.
Yu Zhile only said that there will be several flavors to choose from, and as for the taste, everyone can try it for themselves when the time comes.
Many people left with curiosity and anticipation, muttering the words "Haiyu Brand Kelp Crisps" in their mouths.
After the storm passed, Chen Zhao apologized to his friends.
"It's okay, let's just think of it as a free monkey show." Zhang Haimei comforted him.
Yu Zhile chuckled and said, "You handled this emergency very well. I'll invite everyone to watch the show."
Cheers rang out one after another, and the group walked towards the cinema in a lively manner.
There was only one movie showing, and the subject matter was so touching that everyone's eyes became red and they had to hold back their tears.
"Xiaobao, if your movie is so tear-jerking, you'll have to prepare tissues for the sisters in advance," Zhang Wenxin joked.
Yu Chi seemed to be thinking about something.
"And me, Xiaobao, don't forget brother Xiaozhao." Chen Zhao said hurriedly.
His eager look made everyone laugh and dispelled the sad atmosphere.
After that, Chen Zhao took everyone to visit some interesting places nearby. They also tried some special snacks in Beijing before returning to Du Sheng's house with great satisfaction.
For the next half month, everyone devoted themselves to theoretical study. They did not feel tired even though they had to memorize text materials as thick as finger joints every day. Instead, they felt full of energy.
Du Sheng's house came alive with their laughter and joy, and the two elders of the Li family smiled more often.
A week after the first dormitory building was completed, the first batch of employees set out from Haidong Town with some raw materials. Lan Yuanyuan was also going to live in the military area to learn from Yu Wanqin.
"Miss Yuanyuan, please come back more often when you have time." Grandma Li saw her out, her face full of reluctance.
Lan Yuanyuan nodded seriously, gave the two elders a hug, and then got on the car back to the military area with Yu Zhile.
"Sister, Sister Yuanyuan." Yu Yue, who was sitting in the passenger seat, greeted the two of them.
He went to an auto repair shop in Ontario in early April to learn about heavy-duty vehicles. In order not to affect his progress, he shaved his head and looked a bit thinner than during the Chinese New Year.
"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, will we go back to Ontario or stay in Factory 4?" Yu Zhile asked.
Yu Yue replied: "Fourth Factory, go home and live."
"Okay, from now on, Xiaobao will be your little tail and supervise you when you eat." Yu Zhile sighed when he saw his increasingly clear jawline, "Without a good body, how can you persist in studying?"
Yu Yue knew he was in the wrong and kept agreeing.
When Yu Haiguang heard the interaction between the siblings, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
The car sped along and they soon returned to the military area.
In the Yu family courtyard, Yu Wanqin was preparing ingredients for the evening dinner. Hu Shuang and Li Yun were helping her, and the three of them were chatting happily.
"Xiao Shuang, why are you in Jing City? Don't you need to study with Master Jiang?" Lan Yuanyuan was a little excited when she saw her childhood friend.
Hu Shuang responded vaguely: "I'm here to study, so I have to live in Beijing for a while."
Lan Yuanyuan didn't care. She sat down to help and asked about Hu Lan's recent situation.
After get off work, Political Commissar Li went straight to Yu's house. As soon as he entered the door, he rolled up his sleeves to show off his skills. The kitchen became his home court.
The food was served and everyone sat down, eating and chatting, the atmosphere was very lively.
The next day, Yu Zhile went to the train station to pick up the first group of people who had arrived and took them back to the factory by bus.
Everyone has good adaptability and immediately started training after settling in. Most of these people have experience working on production lines, and their learning progress far exceeded the expectations of the trainers.
At the same time, Zhang Haizhu led the seasoning team to adjust the original formula and research new flavors.
The business team managed by Ge Xiaoju and Zhang Ling went out, their task was to find out the location and daily customer flow of all supply and marketing cooperatives, and take the last bus back to the factory every day.
"Le Le, the plastic packaging has been delivered." Yu Chuyue knocked on the door of Yu Zhile's office. "The preliminary work has been prepared and production can start tomorrow."
"Okay, let's produce a batch of samples first and let Xiaoju and Ling'er take them to the supply and marketing cooperative in the city center for sales." Yu Zhile arranged the production tasks.
Then, she asked Yu Chuyue to inform Zhang Wenxin that starting from tomorrow, everyone must strictly follow the get off work schedule of 9 am to 6 pm, and attendance must be checked.
The groundbreaking ceremony was held at 8:30 the next day, and the last process was Zhang Wenxin’s speech as the first factory director.
Zhang Wenxin did not take a speech script. She simply recalled with everyone the efforts and achievements of the sideline group in the past year. Every word she said was full of passion, which mobilized everyone's enthusiasm to the highest point.
Finally, she said loudly: "I declare that the Jingshi Haiyu Food Processing Factory will officially start operations from now on!"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was thunderous applause, and then everyone returned to their posts.
The preparation and mixing of raw materials as well as frying and puffing all require manual operation, and the kelp crisps need to be cooled after being taken out of the pot. When the machine was started, it was two hours after the start of work.
The machines are running at a roar, the first batch of kelp crisps are produced, and the workers in the last process place them neatly into shipping boxes.
In just one morning, they produced fifty boxes of kelp crisps.
After having lunch in the cafeteria, Ge Xiaoju, Zhang Ling and their team members took samples of different flavors and boarded the bus into the city amid everyone’s anticipation.
