"The total price quoted for this landscape water treatment project is 146,277 yuan, and the actual error shall not exceed 5% of the contract price. The quality of the project can only be accepted after Party A signs it, and special circumstances are not included in it..."

Ye Han compared the plans and quotations of two landscape water treatment companies and finally chose the first one and paid a 10% deposit in advance.

Now we just have to wait for the equipment to arrive before we can start work.

This part is finally done.

At the same time, there has been some progress in recruiting.

Ye Han contacted a group of people who submitted resumes two days ago.

Just as she expected, many people immediately refused when they heard the location, and some even asked a lot of questions, fearing that she was a liar - after all, most people had never heard of the name of Nanshan Botanical Garden, and the location was so remote, so it was normal to have concerns.

Ye Han only recruited three people in two days.

Two of them are migrant workers in their 50s who have not been able to find suitable jobs for the time being and plan to give it a try first; the last one is a junior intern who has agreed to report tomorrow.

They have no relevant work experience and need training before they can take up their posts.

At this time, five days had passed since the mission was released, and Ye Han thought: I can't waste any more time.

Just when she was about to increase her salary a little more, a professional human resources company contacted her.

These companies have their own talent channels and often recruit assembly line workers and dispatched workers for large factories, often sending dozens or even hundreds of people with high efficiency.

On the phone, the other party was confirming the needs with her: "Recruiting 15 part-time garden workers, aged 18-60, those with relevant experience are preferred, and they will be on duty within three days - are there any other needs?"

Ye Han thought that after renovating the soil, he would have to prune the dry branches, and the plants in the garden would also need long-term maintenance, so he said: "In addition to part-time staff, we will also need to recruit two full-time gardening workers.

The applicant must have more than two years of experience in landscaping and be able to plant, cultivate, prevent and treat pests and diseases, and prune plants. The salary is 4,000 yuan/month, with five insurances and one housing fund, three meals included, and accommodation provided in the later stage. ”

There is a two-story building behind the bamboo forest, which was the original staff dormitory.

The four-person room has bunk beds and an independent bathroom, but it is currently too dirty and needs to have the walls painted and renovated before people can move in.

"Okay, no problem." The HR named Xu Li agreed readily.

Among all the recruitment commissions she has received, this salary is definitely competitive, and both the hourly wage and benefits are higher than the market level.

There is no need to work overtime in the botanical garden, and there is no assessment or performance pressure. The work is leisurely, and people will come even if they receive 3,000 yuan for free food and accommodation.

Xu Li has already made up her mind that she will not share this commission with her subordinates and will do it herself.

"Our fees are unified and are calculated on a per-person basis, with part-time employees receiving 150 yuan per person and full-time employees receiving 300 yuan per person. If you leave within three days after you start working, the salary will be automatically repaid, with no additional fees charged.

As for part-time employees, we will send them in two batches. The first batch will arrive within two days, and the second batch will make up for the previous batch of resigned employees and all arrive within a week. Do you think this plan is feasible?"

"Can."

"The total charge is 2,850 yuan. I'll send you the contract for confirmation."

At this point, the personnel problem has also been solved.

The human resources company is indeed professional and highly efficient.

The next afternoon, 7 employees arrived at the post, including 4 men and 3 women, most of whom were between 40 and 50 years old. Together with the 3 people recruited by Ye Han, there were a total of 10 people.

In addition, Ye Han also received a full-time staff resume sent by the other party.

Wang Hongnian, male, 47 years old, college degree, more than 20 years of working experience, has participated in the construction of XX District landscaping and other municipal projects, and has rich experience.

Reason for leaving: contract expired, no bad performance during employment.

The overall environment is not good nowadays, and a large number of companies are laying off employees. For state-owned enterprises that do not have formal contract workers, it is normal not to renew their contracts when they expire.

This resume meets all the requirements and even exceeds expectations.

Without further ado, Ye Han immediately contacted the other party and agreed to be at the post in the afternoon.

This way, she could skip the training step and have more time to deal with other issues.

"...When loosening the soil and weeding, you must be careful and meticulous, not damaging the roots, bark, or tips, weeding, picking up clods of soil and stones, and adding appropriate soil to the roots of the trees①.

For compacted soil like this, you need to loosen it deeply, at least 10cm deep into the soil. Let me show you how to do it first—"

When Ye Han came over with the mineral water, he heard Wang Hongnian's voice from afar.

The man had a square face and dark skin from working outdoors all year round. He was wearing grey work clothes and had a thin figure. He looked simple yet a little serious, and at first glance he was the image of a hardworking worker.

He was explaining to everyone the steps of loosening the soil and weeding. The others were very impressed and gathered around him, listening very carefully.

After the other party finished speaking, Ye Han picked up the mineral water and walked towards them.

"Hello, Director."

"Director."

When they saw Ye Han coming, even though these people had seen her once before, they were still shocked to see her again.

Because she was so young and beautiful, it was hard to imagine that she was the director of the botanical garden and their employer.

Ye Han was dressed very casually today, wearing a white T-shirt with black cropped pants and canvas shoes. His hair was combed back into a bun. He looked clean and refreshing, and people couldn't take their eyes off him at first sight.

The junior intern saw that her face turned red, and he hurriedly put down his rolled-up sleeves and straightened the folds at the corners of his clothes, for fear of leaving a bad impression on the other party.

"Thank you for your hard work. It's a little hot. The water is iced. I'll put it aside. Take it when you're thirsty." Ye Han smiled and looked at Wang Hongnian: "Uncle Wang, please take care of them."

Wang Hongnian waved his hand hastily: "No trouble, no trouble."

Since leaving his job, he has interviewed with many companies and found that it is really difficult to find a job these days.

He has no advantage in terms of age, is not good at speaking, and doesn't know anything except his old trade. He can only do odd jobs while looking for a suitable job.

The salary here is good and the work is familiar. Wang Hongnian is very satisfied and will definitely work hard.

The food that day also surprised them.

The standard is two meat dishes and one vegetable dish. Unlike many restaurants that serve fat meat that is so greasy that people cannot eat it, the restaurant serves pork belly and spareribs with alternating fat and lean meat. The meat is stewed until it is soft and the soup is thick. There is a full box of rice, which is this year's new rice, with a fragrant and soft taste. It is also served with refreshing side dishes and drinks, which is really refreshing to drink on a hot day.

There is extra food for those with big appetites, which is definitely enough.

There were 11 people in total. Ye Han ordered 15 box lunches and ate almost all of them.

After eating and drinking, everyone was full of energy and their efficiency was greatly improved.

After the first day of work, Ye Han paid them their wages on the spot, and each person received a brand new hundred-dollar bill.

Holding the heavy banknotes in my hands, I felt an instant sense of satisfaction from the harvest of my labor, and it also put those who had been worried at ease.

Three days later, the human resources company sent in the second batch of personnel, and none of the part-time employees from the first batch resigned; all of them stayed.

In addition, another full-time employee has also arrived.

Liu Chunling, female, 43 years old, has many years of experience in landscaping. After leaving her job, she worked as a cashier in a supermarket. Her monthly salary was only about 2,000 yuan, and she often worked overtime until 10 o'clock.

Liu Chunling was very satisfied to find this job.

Not only is the salary higher than before, but now that everything is on track, I am only busy for four or five months a year, and the rest of the time is very relaxing.

So far, 2 full-time staff + 18 part-time staff have all arrived.

With the joint efforts of these people, the garden crops that were originally dying have gradually improved after weeding, loosening the soil, irrigation, and topdressing. Although new leaves have not yet grown, the number of yellow leaves and dead branches has stopped increasing, indicating that there has been an effect.

At the same time, the cleaning work of the artificial lake is also ongoing.

The garbage and large pollutants in the lake have been salvaged and the drainage outlet has been cleaned, so that the artificial lake, which originally had living water, has restored its self-circulation function and is slowly repairing itself.

The stench has dissipated a lot, but at a glance, there are still a lot of algae floating in the water and visibility is low.

Plug flow aerators, floating object collectors, water pumps, high-efficiency dissolved air tanks and other equipment are being gradually installed. When there is sufficient oxygen in the lake and the green algae and blue algae disappear under the action of microorganisms, the artificial lake will return to its original appearance.

During this period of time, Ye Han was not idle either.

Not only did she have to take care of the transplanted plants, she also had to buy organic fertilizers, herbicides, gardening tools and other necessities, contact the decoration company to repaint the dormitory, select furniture, supervise the construction of the artificial lake, inspect each step of the project, and so on. She was very busy.

In this way, more than 20 days passed, the soil in the garden had been completely renovated, the weeds had been removed, and the wildly stretching branches had been trimmed neatly. From a distance, it had begun to take on the appearance of a botanical garden, which was very different from the desolate appearance at the beginning.

The pool at the entrance has long been cleaned and the waterfall is flowing again; the garbage and fallen leaves on the side of the road have also been cleaned up, the wooden plank road has been repaired, and even the staff dormitories have been renovated, showing a brand new look.

The artificial lake is no longer a smelly body of water, but has become clear, with sparkling water surface and large lotus leaves floating on the water.

Unfortunately, some of them can no longer be saved.

These withered leaves were dying long before the water quality recovered, and finally fell on the eve of the arrival of light.

The rest of the lotus flowers struggled to survive in the smelly water. When the living environment gradually improved, they desperately absorbed clean water and fertilizers added later, relying on nutrients and sunlight to float to the surface.

What surprised Ye Han was that several lotus flowers with strong resistance had grown pale pink buds. Although they were small and looked fragile, they symbolized the tenacity and indomitable spirit of life.

With careful cultivation, I believe they will one day grow into "lotus leaves reaching the sky with endless green, lotus flowers reflecting the sun with exceptionally red".

Besides this, there is good news.

The water became clear and all kinds of aquatic plants were visible. While patrolling around, Ye Han discovered a very popular tropical aquatic plant.

Although its thorny leaves had not yet unfolded, curled up pitifully at the bottom of the water, completely lacking the domineering aura they would have when unfolded, Ye Han still recognized it - it was the Victoria amazonica, known as the 'king of water flowers'.

Victoria amazonica is native to the tropical waters of South America and was later introduced into China as an aquatic ornamental plant. It is famous for its huge size.

When its leaves are fully extended, their diameter can reach over 2 meters, with upturned edges, like a giant lotus base floating on the water. They are emerald green in color, and their broad leaves can even carry the weight of an adult, making them the undisputed overlord of the water.

Ye Han had seen him once somewhere else.

The huge round leaves are dotted in the lake like small green boats. They are connected in series by well-developed underwater rhizomes to form a huge life form that occupies the entire water area. Some children sit on the leaves of the Victoria amazonica with the help of the staff. They can effortlessly bear the weight of dozens of kilograms on the leaves, and the visual effect is very shocking.

According to Ye Han, except for a wetland park more than 60 kilometers away in the entire W city, no other scenic spots have introduced this tropical crop. If it can be cultivated properly, it will definitely be a magnificent sight.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look forward to the reconstruction of the botanical garden.
