"A month from now," Lin Ziyan said casually. She had already fished out a few pounds and planned to cook them tonight to try them out.
Huo Qizhen glanced at it, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Xu Ling handled all the weighing and other tasks, while Lin Ziyan just stood by and talked to the chubby girl.
Of course, the sorting work was done by the shrimp farm workers and aunties.
After loading the truck and seeing Huo Qizhen and his group off, the shrimp farm workers finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ayan, have you heard? A factory in town is hiring, saying they need 200-300 people," Xu Ling casually mentioned after stopping.
Her sister-in-law and brother wanted to apply for the job, but they were afraid it was a scam, so they hesitated.
When she left home today, her mother murmured a few worried words.
"Is it the jewelry factory of T Group?" Lin Ziyan asked, raising her eyelashes slightly.
Xu Ling nodded, "That's right, several people in our village want to sign up, but they're afraid it's fake."
The pay is 90 yuan a month, plus overtime pay and a canteen.
"I'm thinking of going to town to take a look later."
Lin Ziyan: "If it's the jewelry factory of T Group, then it's real."
"This brand is very famous abroad."
She remembered the last time Edward came, he only stayed for a day before leaving in a hurry.
At that time, he brought his team over and directly finalized the land plot and the scale of the factory construction.
That team is still in Haixian County, and they need to handle all sorts of procedures.
Lu Qiuying's involvement in the factory's project has made it convenient for her to return to her village.
I didn't expect them to start recruiting now, how many days has it been?
The machinery for setting up the factory should already be at sea by now.
"Is this a case of attracting foreign investment to build a factory? I need to hurry back to the village and tell my brother and sister-in-law, otherwise they'll fill all the positions." Xu Ling immediately stood up, dusted herself off, and took off her apron.
The other women were also interested, but were hesitating whether to ask for leave.
"I'll give you half a day off. Feed the shrimp and go straight home. Lock the shrimp farm gate today," Lin Ziyan said decisively, seeing through their thoughts.
Aunt Chen and Aunt Huang exchanged a glance. They hadn't thought much of it when they first heard it, but after thinking about it for a moment, they were also somewhat tempted.
Who doesn't have relatives or something?
Aunt Chen's family is struggling to find extra work to support their nephews and nieces' education. They sell all their grain every time, leaving them with nothing but sweet potatoes and potatoes to eat.
Setting up a factory in town now presents a perfect opportunity.
Aunt Huang thought the same way; once life got better, she would think of her family.
Giving money is not as good as having your family sign up. Only when you are a worker and receive your own wages can you stand tall.
"Ah Yan, we're leaving now." Aunt Huang thought for a moment and immediately pulled Aunt Chen away.
Fat girl, "..."
The other women had already started working, and they were much faster than before. They finished packing up and left in no time.
In the end, it was Lin Ziyan and Fatty who closed the shrimp farm gate.
…
Noon in town.
Xu Ling, her sister-in-law, and her brother arrived at the registration area, where a long line had already formed.
She also saw that Li Zhaodi was ahead of her.
"Sister Ling, you're here to sign up too?" Li Liu's wife asked in surprise when she saw her.
Xu Ling's shrimp farm was near Li Liu's house, and the two would chat occasionally.
Li Liu's wife had planned to find temporary work at the seafood market since she couldn't find a job in the county town.
She never expected to find a factory hiring while shopping in town, so she immediately came over to queue up.
“No, I brought my brother and sister-in-law with me. They want me to give them some advice.” Xu Ling was also surprised to see her.
Her brother and sister-in-law nodded to Li Liu's wife.
“This factory is run by a large corporation; I’ve read about it in the newspaper.” Li Liu’s wife is a high school graduate, and her father-in-law is a retired soldier who has always subscribed to newspapers.
She reads the newspaper almost every day at home.
Li Liu is already a manager at the seafood market; otherwise, she wouldn't be in such a hurry to go home and find work.
The couple's child is about to start primary school, and Li Liu's wife doesn't want to go out to work anymore.
Upon hearing this, Xu Ling immediately looked at her brother and sister-in-law, who both visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
“Auntie, why don’t you go back and get busy? Your sister-in-law and brother can wait.” Chen Xuemei, Xu Ling’s sister-in-law, said.
Xu Ling: "It's okay, I have half a day off today."
As they were talking, only four people remained in line ahead of them.
Li Xuemei chatted with Li Liu's wife, inquiring about the factory.
"I will definitely work hard, thank you comrade." Li Zhaodi's face lit up with joy, and her voice rose.
The person recruiting just waved his hand and didn't say much.
Xu Ling looked in the direction of the sound, her eyes filled with confusion.
"Tsk, how can someone like that... pass..." Li Liu's wife paused instantly.
She rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things.
Li Zhaodi was dressed in a presentable outfit, her hair was neatly combed, and she looked like a completely different person.
He no longer hunches over, and his walk looks like he's clearly trained.
“Mother, keep this up from now on. Don’t give all your salary to Father after you get it. Keep some money for yourself…” Wei Caixia put her arm around Li Zhaodi’s shoulder and whispered.
As the two passed by, Xu Ling overheard their conversation and blinked.
When Li Zhaodi saw Li Liu's wife, she ignored her completely but did not utter a word of abuse.
"The sun has risen in the west? Is that really Wei Er's wife?" Li Liu's wife murmured.
However, she quickly lost interest in thinking about these things, as it was her turn for the interview.
Xu Ling glanced at Wei Caixia, never expecting that Li Zhaodi would one day listen to her daughter.
She didn't know that Li Zhaodi was initially unwilling to listen.
Wei Caixia took several punches and kicks from Wei Er for her. Compared to her son's indifferent indifference, Li Zhaodi's feelings changed.
Later, he realized that by listening to his daughter, he could not only make money but also avoid being beaten, and he was completely convinced.
Most importantly, she can only rely on her daughter to support her in her old age. With her son arrested, Li Zhaodi is panicked.
"Mother, did you hear what I said?"
“Don’t let my father coax you a few times and you open your heart completely. Think about how hard he hit you when he did it, and you need to harden your heart,” Wei Caixia continued.
After graduation, she didn't plan to wait for the school to assign her a job. Since she was going to have a practical learning experience in the village, she thought she would start her own business in the future.
Previously, she only cared about building good relationships with her classmates, but after returning to school this time, she has changed a lot.
Instead of getting too close to people, it's better to learn a skill.
When you lack ability, connections and such are a joke.
“You brat, teach her a lesson…” Li Zhaodi suddenly stopped, looked at her daughter, and her eyes reddened.
"I understand," she said softly.
After lying in bed for several days, Wei Er started punching and kicking her again as soon as he was able to stand up.
Li Zhaodi was completely heartbroken and had a good cry with her daughter.
“Mother, let’s start by changing our ways from swearing.” Wei Caixia said immediately with a serious expression.
Li Zhaodi nodded. She still felt lightheaded after passing the interview.
Before leaving, Wei Er was still cursing and swearing, saying that she was delusional.
“Mother, don’t worry about what Father says or what he thinks. First, earn money to support yourself. He’ll think twice before he takes any action in the future,” Wei Caixia continued.
