Chapter 615 People will sympathize with the weak
Lu Qiaoge knew why Sister Zhao asked that question. She said, "It's definitely affordable for female employees, but it depends on the cost. When we set up the factory, even if we don't make a profit, we can't lose money. Besides, many female employees in the factory receive a monthly sanitation allowance. Even if they pay for it themselves, it's not much."
Sister Zhao was relieved, but at the same time felt a little ashamed and said, "I'm sorry, Qiao Ge, I shouldn't have asked you that. I should have considered things from the factory's perspective."
Lu Qiaoge said nonchalantly, "Sister Zhao, it's fine if you think that way. If the sanitary products our factory produces in the future can't even be afforded by female workers in factories in the city, then there's no point in us producing them."
Then Lu Qiaoge remembered someone and asked Sister Zhao, "Do you think Tan Ying could be your deputy?"
Tan Ying now works at an arts and crafts factory, where she works during the day and attends night school in the evenings.
The craft factory also had some female employees, and Lu Qiaoge arranged staff dormitories for them. Although it was a temporary place to stay, the conditions were quite good.
There are four people in the dormitory, and Tan Ying gets along very well with them all.
Sister Zhao immediately nodded: "Okay."
Lu Qiaoge said decisively, "Then go and inform Tan Ying later, and tell her to stay with you for the next few days."
Tan Ying is now in charge of the raw materials for the handicraft factory.
The quality and storage aspects of warehousing and outbound processes are all handled very well.
She is the same age as Fan Xiaoyu.
These girls are all lovely, and there's very little jealousy, envy, backstabbing, or infighting among them.
They wouldn't even look down on Tan Ying because of her poor family background.
Tan Ying is now full of energy, and she also receives a regular employee salary.
However, I have to give 20 yuan to my family every month.
Originally, the mentally challenged mother wanted to keep all the money in her hands.
However, after being lectured by the commune's head, Zhu, he never dared to have any other thoughts again.
Everyone knows that if Director Zhu works another year, he will definitely be promoted to the county level next year.
Therefore, they listened to everything President Zhu said.
This mentally challenged mother is the same.
Tan Ying would also go back home once a month to give her mother her salary, along with some food, clothing, and other necessities.
In truth, Tan Ying didn't want to take it at all.
Whether it's wages or food, drink, or other necessities.
She originally didn't want to give a single penny.
But she had to consider the opinions of the villagers.
For example, when you're in a mud pit, everyone will sympathize with you, and no matter what you do in the mud pit, everyone will think that what you're doing is right.
But once you've crawled out of the mud, taken a bath, changed your clothes, and are dressed cleanly, people's sympathy will quickly vanish.
When you turn around and try to do something to the rotten mud pit, for example, if Tan Ying ignores her parents and her mentally challenged older brother, the villagers will immediately accuse her of being heartless, unfilial, vicious, and inhumane, etc.
By this time, they may have long forgotten the suffering Tan Ying endured in that family.
Because at this moment, she was the strong one, while her parents and her mentally challenged older brother became the weak ones.
Director Lu is right.
People often sympathize with the weak.
Therefore, Tan Ying would never allow the villagers to criticize her, which would then affect her workplace and Director Lu.
In this regard, Tan Ying has always done a good job. People in the village praise her for being filial, conscientious, kind-hearted, and sensible, and they also say that her work unit leaders have done a good job educating her.
As Sister Zhao walked, she thought to herself: Tan Ying was unfortunate before, but she is lucky now.
And she was extremely lucky, because she met Lu Qiaoge.
When Sister Zhao came to find Tan Ying, she was busy in the warehouse.
Director Lin assigned two assistants to Tan Ying.
Many people believe that the development of craft factories is limited.
However, the craft factory within the military factory has great potential.
From just a few people at the beginning, it has now grown to more than two hundred.
Fortunately, the initial designated area was large, so even if it is expanded, there is still room for expansion.
Tan Ying was wearing work clothes, and her two dark braids were folded up and tied with a hair tie.
Tan Ying is in better spirits now than she was when she was an acquisition agent.
It was as if they had been reborn.
She no longer has to go back to that suffocating home every day, nor does she have to listen to her parents' insults.
She now lives in a dormitory with her colleagues, who are all very kind to her and take good care of her.
Tan Ying knew that everything she had now was thanks to Lu Qiaoge, but she had nothing of value, and the only way she could repay him was by working hard.
She looked up and saw Sister Zhao coming over. She quickly went up to her and asked, "Director Zhao, is there something you need?"
Sister Zhao pulled Tan Ying to the side and subtly sized her up.
This girl from the countryside has exceptional work skills.
He's quick-witted, learns things fast, does things efficiently, doesn't talk much, but his eyes are always sharp.
To describe her in the simplest terms, she is an exceptionally hardworking girl.
To be honest, the raw materials were the most difficult part to manage, but Tan Ying managed them very well.
With a smile on her face, Sister Zhao pulled Tan Ying aside and lowered her voice, saying, "I just came from Director Lu's office. I have something to tell you, but you can't tell anyone else right now."
Tan Ying was stunned for a moment, then said nervously, "Director Zhao, although I don't know what it is, I swear on my life that I will never tell anyone anything you tell me."
Sister Zhao quickly waved her hand: "No need to be so nervous, it's not that serious. What I wanted to tell you is that our factory director, Mr. Lu, wants to set up a factory that specializes in producing sanitary products for women. And he plans to have me manage this factory, with you as my deputy."
If it were the old Tan Ying, she definitely wouldn't know what feminine hygiene products were.
But it was only after becoming a worker that I learned that it's okay to use toilet paper during menstruation.
It was also the first time she had ever seen what toilet paper looked like.
"Director Zhao, are you producing toilet paper?" Tan Ying asked, suppressing her excitement.
Sister Zhao nodded, but then shook her head: "We'll have to wait until the preparations are complete to find out the specifics, but toilet paper will be produced. However, we mainly produce sanitary napkins, which you might not be familiar with. Let me explain it to you slowly..."
——
Lu Qiaoge went to the neighborhood office, and Lao Hu and Huang Juan happened to be there.
Lu Qiaoge called the two people to the small conference room and told them her thoughts.
Old Hu was getting on in years, so he wasn't embarrassed at all when talking about these hygiene products. Then, Deputy Director Huang's eyes lit up, and he asked Lu Qiaoge with some excitement, "Qiaoge, if your idea is approved by the higher-ups, how long will it take to build this factory?"
Lu Qiaoge: "Three months, I guess."
Old Hu said, "Write your application now, and I'll send it to the factory office."
