You know, in those days, being able to work in a factory was an honor, especially for people from the countryside, as it was impossible to get a job in a factory without connections.
Now, with such a good opportunity right in front of them, who would be willing to give it up so easily? Besides, everyone knows that working in a factory has very good benefits. Not only is the salary paid on time every month, but there are also benefits during the New Year and other holidays.
Everyone is looking forward to this.
Others began to agree, saying that they could only endure being separated from their wives and families.
Seeing everyone so enthusiastic, Liu Ruonan felt reluctant to criticize them, but she still had to point out some of the ugliness.
Liu Ruonan waved her hand, signaling everyone to stop.
Liu Ruonan looked at everyone and said, "I know what you're thinking, but there are some things I must say upfront. In my factory, there are no special cases. No one gets special privileges just because they're close to my family. Everyone must follow the factory's rules and regulations. There are a lot of rules and regulations here, and you all have to at least be able to accept them."
Naturally, everyone responded one after another. You know, if you miss such an opportunity, there will be no second time.
"Alright! Since everyone agrees this is fine, I have one more thing to make clear. As long as you start working at the factory, we'll be in an employment relationship. There's no such thing as personal relationships. As we all know, a little kindness pays off, a peck of rice pays grudge! I don't want this initially pleasant partnership to spiral out of control. I don't ask for your gratitude for giving you a job, I just hope you'll do your job well for the sake of this hard-earned job."
"Of course!"
Everyone agreed.
Although Liu Ruonan's words were somewhat unpleasant, to put it more precisely, they were almost heartless. Liu Ruonan's words undoubtedly completely severed ties with the neighbors. From then on, even if they entered the factory, the relationship would be nothing more than that of boss and hired worker.
In fact, if you put yourself in their shoes, this is understandable.
There are so many people in the village. If one person sets a precedent with Liu Ruonan, there might be a second one, and a third one... It is said that there is no order without rules. There must be some constraints so that the factory can be run, right?
Liu Ruonan clapped her hands, signaling for silence, and said to everyone, "In that case, if you want to work at the factory, go find my eldest brother and sign up! I'll make one final appeal. If any villagers don't follow the factory's rules and regulations, I won't hesitate to fire them. Don't think I'm being rude then."
It seems that all agreements have been reached verbally.
Chen Lei returned to Chen Wanglong's home, moved a table and chairs to the yard, then took a notebook, sat at the table and began to take notes.
That way, he looks quite impressive and more like a cultured person.
Liu Ruonan, Chen Wanglong and Tian Ni sat on the sofa in the north room, looking at everything outside. The villagers were quite orderly and lined up when registering.
Seeing this, Liu Ruonan felt very relieved.
There were quite a few people who signed up, and most of the men in the village had signed up. It was already past four in the afternoon when the registration was completed. Liu Ruonan had just fallen asleep on Tian Ni's bed out of exhaustion.
When he woke up, everyone had just finished. He looked at the sleepy Liu Ruonan and thanked her with a happy face.
When Liu Ruonan was seeing everyone off, she saw Chen Guihua and Zhuang Qiang standing in front of the gate of Chen Wanglong's house.
Chen Guihua folded her arms across her chest, still looking arrogant, as if no one was worthy of her attention.
"Chen Guihua, why are you here?"
Some villagers began to tease him coldly. Everyone knew that Chen Guihua and Zhuang Qiang had seen that Zhuang Sheng, who had been kicked out of their home, was not paralyzed, but was actually getting better. Furthermore, ever since he married Liu Ruonan, the couple had been living a very smooth life.
Chen Guihua and Zhuang Qiang felt aggrieved and unwilling to accept the situation towards Zhuang Sheng and his wife. If they had not kicked Zhuang Sheng out, perhaps they would be the ones enjoying all the good life today, instead of Chen Jianmin and his wife.
In the minds of Chen Guihua and Zhuang Qiang, Chen Jianmin and his wife had simply gotten a great bargain.
It’s a pity, that’s just how human nature is.
This might be karma in this life! You ruthlessly kicked Zhuang Sheng out of your home when he needed your care and help the most. You clearly signed a contract that said you wouldn't support him while he was alive, or bury him after he died. Now you're trying to establish a relationship with him.
It's okay to try to build relationships, as long as you at least show some sincerity. However, you always act so high and mighty, as if others owe you something.
"How does this bother you?" Chen Guihua scolded with a dissatisfied look on her face.
"Why does Chen Guihua seem to be on edge all day long?"
"That's not like he's eating gunpowder! He's clearly sick and will bite anyone he catches."
Chen Guihua rolled her eyes at the person who spoke up, then spat fiercely, walked up to Liu Ruonan, glared at her and said:
"Since Zhuang Sheng didn't come back today, it doesn't matter if you come back. I have something to tell you."
Liu Ruonan nodded, showing no signs of emotion. With so many people around, and Chen Lei beside them, she didn't believe Chen Guihua would dare to do anything to her.
