For this batch of machinery, Fan Juan did Gerald a favor by leaking some information, only to be disgusted by him in the process.
He proclaimed himself to be his Eastern goddess, then invited her to his wedding, and said that his fiancée was far too jealous.
Fan Juan didn't tell Qin Nian any of this.
Qin Nian was adjusting the machine, and the two of them were using a lot of technical jargon. Yang Yufen couldn't understand it, so she just wandered around the factory, picking up a broom and sweeping up any dirty spots she saw.
Neither of the two busy people noticed what Yang Yufen was doing.
"The machine works, but these things cost a lot of money, and you also have to pay customs duties. Do you have any money left?"
Production hasn't even started yet; how can we hire workers without money?
“I still have some on hand. If all else fails, I’ll bring in another shareholder. I’ve already asked for help from higher-ups, which will save me some money. The key is to get it into production as soon as possible.”
Fan Juan stared intently at Qin Nian.
"It should be about ten more days."
Qin Nian gave a timeframe.
"Ten days? Okay, then I'll start looking for workers."
"Looking to hire? What are the requirements?"
Yang Yufen arrived at this time as well.
"Does the old lady have someone she'd like to introduce?"
Fan Juan thought it wasn't entirely impossible, since Qin Nian also owned a share of the factory.
"I provide room and board here, but since they are all technical positions, there is a learning curve at the beginning, and there are certain cultural requirements."
“There are quite a few literate women in our compound. The old lady just wanted to ask about the job openings.”
Yang Yufen's words immediately lit up Fan Juan's eyes.
"Auntie, you're so kind! How could I not have thought of that? Thank you so much, Auntie. I'll treat you to lunch. Come on, come on!"
Fan Juan was excited. She had come up with another reason to make demands of the leaders. This would solve the leaders' problems, her own problems, and also help solve the problems of many women. It was a win-win situation!
Qin Nian quickly realized the key point and smiled.
Yang Yufen, however, thought that Fan Juan must have been too busy and gone mad, wondering what she had said that had made her so agitated.
"Mom, I thought you weren't very familiar with anyone else in the family compound except for Aunt Liu and Aunt Wang."
"We weren't very close, but we saw each other all the time, and the kids were always around, so we got to know each other. They had to look after the kids, so when they were free, they could only take on odd jobs. Now that the kids were older and the men weren't home, they naturally wanted to find something to do. We chatted a lot, and I remembered what I heard."
Yang Yufen casually offered a couple of explanations.
Upon hearing that literacy was required, it was discovered that few people in the countryside could read, but the women in the compound were different.
After lunch, Fan Juan left in a real hurry. She had originally planned to go shopping at the department store with him, but all she wanted to do was get to her boss as soon as possible.
"Since you're already here, Mom will take you to see Xiao Li."
Yang Yufen realized she hadn't seen Xiao Li for a while, and since she was just strolling upstairs anyway, it was only a few more steps.
"Aunt Yang, it's been so long since I've seen you."
Xiao Li was also very happy to see Yang Yufen.
My daughter-in-law brought me here to shop for clothes, so I thought I'd drop by and see you. How have you been lately?
"Your relationship as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is really good, ma'am. Gold prices have been rising recently. You bought quite a lot before, are you going to buy more?"
