Li Miaomiao no longer has to work in the fields since the day before yesterday, but has officially taken up the position of technician in the soap workshop.
Considering future sales, although the soap workshop has not officially started operations, Li Miaomiao has already led the workers to make several batches of soap.
"Guoan wife, this soap is really beautiful."
Zhang Degen looked at the soap that had already been formed. It was no longer a square block as before, but was made using a mold carved by a village carpenter. Not only did it come in four colors: yellow, white, pink and green, it also looked very beautiful.
"Just looking at it like this, this soap is much better looking than the ones in the supply and marketing cooperative."
There are still some people in the village who can afford soap, and they exclaimed in admiration at the soap samples that were brought out.
"It's nice-looking, but the packaging is a bit crude. It's not as nice as the ones I bought at the supply and marketing cooperative."
There were already a few bars of soap wrapped there, simply wrapped in brown yellow paper.
Li Miaomiao was helpless about this. It was not that she thought it looked good, but this was the kind of wrapping paper they could buy now. If they wanted to make the packaging look good, they would have to wait for their leader to come over and see if he could help them get a note. Then they could go to the paper factory to custom-make some soap wrapping paper instead of using the yellow kraft paper they found on the shelf.
As for going to the packaging paper factory to solve the problem, Li Miaomiao had never thought about it at all. It was not her own workshop, so why should she go to such trouble? Wouldn't it be better to be a technician comfortably?
The administrator is responsible for the soap factory's affairs.
After the county leaders come, the position of administrator can be decided.
There are two competitors, one is Accountant Wu and the other is the village chief's son, but Li Miaomiao is more optimistic about Accountant Wu.
To be honest, the village chief's son is still too young. Neither his experience nor his way of doing things are enough to convince others. Apart from the fact that he is the village chief's son, there are many people in the village who are better than him. He simply does not have the strength to compete with Accountant Wu.
When Li Miaomiao heard the news, she was quite surprised. She felt that Zhang Degen had made a stupid move this time. Even his nephew was better than his son.
Will the leader agree to this?
However, Zhang Degen was wholeheartedly thinking about his son, so Li Miaomiao couldn't say anything about it. Anyway, she would not get involved in it. They could fight however they wanted. As long as they didn't target her, she would just sit aside and eat melon seeds and watch the show.
Old Man Pei and Old Lady Pei also discussed this matter with Li Miaomiao.
"Miaomiao, do you think the village chief has lost his mind this time? Why would he want his son to be the manager of such an important matter as the soap workshop? What will he do if anything goes wrong?"
"Mom and Dad, please don't worry about this. The villagers are watching over it. The soap workshop belongs to the village, not to anyone else. It's not up to the village chief alone to decide. Besides, the leaders are here. Let's not worry about it."
Seeing Li Miaomiao's attitude of not caring about anything, Old Man and Old Lady Pei felt relieved. They were worried because Li Miaomiao worked as a technician in a soap workshop, and they were afraid that she would get involved in this matter and be cheated. Now that their daughter-in-law understood it better than them, they really didn't care.
"Okay, we'll listen to you and don't care about this matter. But it's the third son's wife who came to me and asked if you could help her get a job in the factory."
Li Miaomiao was stunned when she heard this, but she was not surprised. It was just that Chen Xuexiang did not ask her, but asked her mother-in-law. Li Miaomiao could guess Chen Xuexiang's thoughts and was speechless about this sister-in-law.
"Mom, this isn't my responsibility. I don't have the ability to get my third sister-in-law in. But don't worry, she's diligent and efficient, and is a perfect fit for the soap workshop. Although the first batch has been filled, we'll continue to recruit people once the soap workshop is up and running. When the notice is posted, she should go for the interview with everyone else. It shouldn't be a problem."
Li Miaomiao would not cause trouble for herself just for Chen Xuexiang. Besides, Chen Xuexiang's conditions completely met the requirements of the soap workshop. There should be a place for her when recruiting next time.
"Okay, I'll go talk to the third brother's wife."
Chen Xuexiang was a little disappointed when she heard what her mother-in-law told Li Miaomiao. She thought that Li Miaomiao would agree to such a small request. After all, when the family was divided before, it was Li Miaomiao who stood up and sought justice for their third room.
"Mom, my second sister-in-law hasn't given a definite answer. I feel uneasy."
Old Mrs. Pei couldn't understand her daughter-in-law at all. She sneered, "Why, do you think the soap workshop was opened by the second son's wife and she even gave you a promise? Doesn't she owe you anything? You ungrateful thing!"
Old Mrs. Pei was the most rude to her third daughter-in-law. She really looked down on her character. It would have been fine if she had a soft temper, but the key point was that she was ungrateful.
As for how the second son's wife helped the third son before, she even gave up her own benefits and lived in the old house, but the third son's wife didn't seem to be very grateful.
"Mom, that's not what I meant."
Chen Xuexiang felt wronged and felt that Li Miaomiao clearly didn't want to help.
Daya and Erya heard this and came out immediately: "Grandma, that's not what mom meant. We all remember how good Second Auntie was to us. Don't be angry, Grandma."
Old Mrs. Pei looked at her two granddaughters. Although she did favor boys over girls, she had to say that the third son's wife had given birth to two good daughters.
"Humph, even a daughter knows better than you, her mother."
Old Mrs. Pei left after saying this, leaving Daya and Erya looking at Chen Xuexiang helplessly.
"Mom, you shouldn't have gone to grandma about this. Didn't the village chief say that they would recruit more people later? You can just go then."
"You two heartless girls, I am doing this for this family!"
Daya and Erya were speechless because their mother always said this.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and everything was ready at the soap workshop. Early in the morning, everyone gathered at the door of the soap workshop with gongs and drums.
This time, Secretary Ying and County Magistrate Liang not only came, but also brought along a number of leaders and cadres from various villages and towns. They also wanted to share the courageous spirit of Fanglin Village. Tong County was rated as lagging behind by the city last year, and with only three or four months until the end-of-year evaluation, Fanglin Village's soap factory, while smaller, is a prime example of progress and worth promoting.
Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu had made sufficient preparations but did not expect such a big scene. Fortunately, they were well prepared and were able to cope with it, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.
Especially when they saw that the village chief of Zhaojia Village was actually following this large group of people, Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu puffed out their chests, feeling a little proud, but also worried that they might have done something wrong and be laughed at.
