A night passed.
Zhou Maoxue and the other three all had dark circles under their eyes when they were called up by Su Tian.
I didn't sleep well that night. The unpleasant smell in the room was not bad and I got used to it in about ten minutes.
However, he was self-righteous as a scholar, and the constant snoring was also annoying.
This night can only be spent in the double torture of psychological and physical suffering.
By the time he went to work the next day, Zhou Maoxue had already begun to feel regretful.
Fortunately, seeing Su Tian as enthusiastic as yesterday, I felt better.
The four of them changed into their work clothes and followed Su Tian back to the factory.
The factory has already started to get busy. Su Tian brought a few people to the work area. There were many large and small workpieces on the ground.
Su Tian pulled over a man who looked to be in his thirties and seemed a bit silent, and introduced him: "His name is Zhang Dali, you can just call him Lao Zhang, and you will learn from him from now on."
"Lao Zhang, teach them carefully. The boss is coming to inspect the factory today. Don't let our team down."
After giving the instructions, Su Tian immediately went back to his own work.
Old Zhang didn't waste any time. He picked up a caliper on the ground and began to explain it to Zhou Maoxue and others.
Actually, this work is very simple. It is just to polish the burrs or non-standard parts of the components according to the standards.
With the intelligence of Zhou Maoxue and others, they naturally got the hang of it quickly.
In their eyes, such work is stupid.
Soon, several people started to work, and working with them were Lao Zhang and four other people.
After only half an hour, Zhou Maoxue and others discovered something was wrong.
Although this job is extremely simple and does not require any technical skills, it is a huge test of physical strength and energy when you actually do it.
The noise in the factory and the boredom of constant grinding all destroyed the spirits of the four candidates.
They usually move in and out of high society, and doing this kind of dirty and hard work... is far inferior to ordinary workers.
However, seeing that Lao Zhang and others looked normal, as if nothing had happened, Zhou Maoxue could only grit his teeth and hold on.
This took three hours.
Zhou Maoxue felt severe pain in his arms, waist and feet.
Although the movements were not large, I was already sweating profusely.
The other three candidates were not much better. They kept humming and moaning, and their movements were obviously much slower.
As I was working, a clear whistle sounded.
Zhou Maoxue suddenly felt someone patting his shoulders twice. He looked up and saw it was Lao Zhang.
"Brother, it's time to eat."
Zhou Maoxue breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been pardoned.
Finally it's over. Although it seemed that the working time was not long when I entered the factory, it was a different story once I started working.
Especially since the work they do is relatively easy, he has seen quite a few people who specialize in transporting and handling heavy objects.
If he were to do it, it would have been torn apart long ago.
If they continue to work overtime...and abuse the workers, then this place will undoubtedly be a sweatshop!
At the moment he was stunned, the workers who were still busy in the factory had already stood up and ran out one by one.
"Hurry up and eat, don't just stand there!" Lao Zhang shouted and ran out of the factory.
Didn't they say there was an hour's break at noon? The cafeteria was not small at all, how could they not have food?
Zhou Maoxue's eyes lit up and he felt like he had discovered something.
He immediately called the other three candidates to run to the cafeteria at the same time.
When he arrived at the cafeteria, Zhou Maoxue was dumbfounded.
The cafeteria, which was originally quite large, is now packed with people.
The line for food is very long.
Zhou Maoxue touched his nose, feeling a little regretful.
It seems like it was a misunderstanding. There was nothing fishy going on. It was just because there were too many people.
The workers had not eaten breakfast and were hungry and tired after working so long, so it was understandable that they were rushing to eat.
Since he didn't find anything special, he had no choice but to follow the crowd and queue up.
Although I was hungry, I had no expectations for the food in the cafeteria.
What good food can you get in a shabby factory? I don't want some watery stew or something like that.
Thinking of this, he seemed to have lost his appetite.
After waiting in line for a long time, I finally got to the food window.
Looking at the dishes in the window.
Zhou Maoxue was stunned. It was not the bland meal he had imagined, but instead pots of stir-fried dishes.
It looks greasy and there are quite a few meat slices inside.
Are all the food in factories so good?
Zhou Maoxue finished his meal with doubts in his mind.
There were no seats left in the cafeteria, so he took the other three out to eat.
At the entrance of the cafeteria, there were workers in groups of three or four squatting on the ground, chatting and eating.
The four of them found a relatively private place, squatted on the ground like the workers, and started eating.
"Brother Zhou, do you think we've come to the wrong place? The food here isn't particularly delicious, but it's not bad either."
"Yes, even the farmhands I hired can't afford this."
"Not only can we not get enough food, the conditions in the factory are worse than those in the factory! I feel like my family is like a black factory..."
"Brother Zhou, you are from Beijing. Is Beijing so rich? Ordinary people eat so much oil every day."
Listening to the conversation between you and me, Zhou Maoxue felt a headache.
How the hell do I know what ordinary people eat? I've never seen it.
"It's only the first day, why are you in such a hurry? Why don't you get along well with the workers in the same dormitory tonight and get some information out of them. After dinner, go to the lounge. I think something is wrong there."
