Chapter 129 Chapter 129 Recruitment
Liu Daqiang and Xiufen nodded happily. The chicken farm they had been waiting for for so long was finally built!
After inspecting the chicken farm, Jiang Xi went to the county government. These days, she was busy opening a store in Shanghai, and then she went through that incident again when she came back. She had no time to come to the county government, but she finally made some time today.
Jiang Xi went to Zhao Guoqiang's office as if he was familiar with the place. Zhao Guoqiang was surprised to see Jiang Xi coming and stood up and said, "Why don't you take a few days off?"
Jiang Xi asked embarrassedly, "Do you know everything about me?"
Zhao Guoqiang said, "Of course not. It's been widely reported. I wanted to go to your house to ask about it, but something got in the way. Are you okay now?"
Jiang Xi said, "Thank you for your concern, Leader. I'm fine now. I'm full of energy and full of energy."
Zhao Guoqiang sighed, "You're just as good as me. You're always so energetic. If a normal woman encountered something like this, she'd probably be terrified. How could she be like you?"
Jiang Xi deliberately put on an angry look and said, "County Magistrate Zhao, you really underestimate female comrades. Female comrades nowadays are extraordinary. Besides me, there are many outstanding female comrades who are good at writing and fighting tigers in the mountains."
Jiang Xi deliberately made witty remarks. Now she had completely understood Zhao Guoqiang's thoughts. Generally, leaders like to get along well with their subordinates, but they have to be careful about the degree. Zhao Guoqiang is not such a soft leader on the surface. Those who did not work well before have disappeared from the county government office.
Jiang Xi had a good sense of proportion. Zhao Guoqiang relaxed and cooperated with her by saying, "Yes, yes, I was wrong. Women hold up half the sky!"
Because of Jiang Xi's behavior, Zhao Guoqiang's tone became familiar and asked, "Comrade Jiang, you never come here for no reason. What brings you here today?"
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "As expected, nothing escapes County Magistrate Zhao's discerning eye. Our Changfeng County chicken farm has been built. Thanks to your help, we were able to build the chicken farm so smoothly, so I would like to invite you to attend the opening ribbon-cutting ceremony."
Jiang Xi said as he took out a piece of paper. "I promised you, County Magistrate Zhao, that the chicken farm would provide some jobs for Changfeng County once it was built. Because our chicken farm is small, the first batch of recruits will have a small number of vacancies. However, since I promised you, County Magistrate Zhao, I must keep my word. So, even if the number of recruits is small, we will recruit from the entire county with an open attitude and ensure absolute fairness, justice, and transparency."
Jiang Xi handed a piece of paper to Zhao Guoqiang: “This is our recruitment plan, take a look.”
Zhao Guoqiang took it and saw the words written on the paper: Changfeng County Chicken Farm Recruitment Plan, plans to recruit four breeders, three ordinary workers, one security guard, and two accountants.
It's self-explanatory what a breeder does, but why are breeders distinguished from ordinary workers? Zhao Guoqiang asked: "Is there any difference between these two positions?"
Jiang Xi explained: "Because the chickens raised at the Changfeng County chicken farm are mainly supplied to Wuji Zaolu, we also set up a chicken farm to control the quality from the source. Therefore, we don't use feed to increase the time it takes for the chickens to be marketed. Instead, we still use traditional methods. We specially enclose a piece of land and raise the chickens as free-range chickens. This makes the chicken meat firmer and more delicious. As the workload increases, we also recruit more breeders."
"As for the three ordinary workers, their daily responsibilities are to kill and process the chickens. Due to insufficient funds in the early stage, the chickens need to be processed manually. Later, when there is sufficient funds, I will introduce a production line and use machines to process the chickens."
"The other two accounting needs are mainly due to the fact that although our chicken farm is still small, the accounts must be clear. After all, we still have to pay taxes to the country, so every account must be kept clearly."
There is another reason for setting up two accountants. Jiang Xi does not have Zhao Guoqiang.
Jiang Xi currently does not have any highly educated personnel under his command, so Jiang Xi must recruit new people from outside. Accountants are generally very popular nowadays, and the accounting position is very important. Jiang Xi is afraid that if he only recruits one person, if that person doesn't want to work anymore due to an accident, it will be very troublesome to leave behind a mess.
So Jiang Xi simply hired two accountants. The two accountants could supervise each other to avoid falsifying accounts. Anyway, the subsequent brine factory had to be set up, and hiring two accountants could also train talents earlier. Then the other accountant could go to work in the brine factory, which would not be a waste of resources and manpower.
Zhao Guoqiang looked at Jiang Xi's recruitment plan carefully again and nodded frequently: "You are very thoughtful. Everything should be done step by step. Don't rush. This plan is very down-to-earth. When will the chicken farm open?"
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "It depends on your schedule. When are you free? We can hold the ribbon-cutting ceremony then."
Zhao Guoqiang laughed: "Comrade Xiao Jiang, you're putting me on the hook. I have no choice but to go."
Jiang Xi also joked, "If you go to our chicken farm, it will definitely be a great success. Everyone will be very motivated when they see you. Everyone in our factory is looking forward to your visit."
Jiang Xi was Zhao Guoqiang's key training target in Changfeng County. The Changfeng County chicken farm was also built by Zhao Guoqiang himself. Of course, Zhao Guoqiang had to go. He thought for a moment and said, "The day after tomorrow. I'm free the afternoon after tomorrow."
Jiang Xi exclaimed happily: "Then we look forward to seeing County Magistrate Zhao!" It just so happened that Jiang Xi could start arranging the recruitment matters in the next two days. He could recruit ten people quickly. By then, when Zhao Guoqiang went to the chicken farm, everything would be arranged properly and neatly.
After leaving the county government, Jiang Xi went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Since he had already invited County Magistrate Zhao, he also had to invite Liu Weiqiang and Ma Shunli from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
Regardless of whether they come or not, Jiang Xi has to go through this formality. After all, as for connections, only by interacting more can one become more familiar with others and have better relationships.
Jiang Xi went to the Industry and Commerce Bureau. Ma Shunli sighed when he saw her, "Comrade Jiang, you're here. Are you okay?"
Jiang Xi smiled helplessly: "Everyone knows about my affairs?"
Ma Shunli said, "What big news can there be in our small county? This incident is really too sensational. We all know about it. We were still discussing it a few days ago. How are you? Are you okay?"
Jiang Xi shook his head: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Director Ma."
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Ma Shunli, Jiang Xi got down to business: "Secretary Ma, thanks to your advice, our chicken farm was built so smoothly. We will hold an opening ceremony the day after tomorrow afternoon and would like to invite you to attend. Do you have time?"
Ma Shunli didn't expect that Jiang Xi would take his casual remark to heart and even personally invite him. He immediately said happily, "I will definitely be there on time. It's been a long time since I've encountered such a lively event. I absolutely must attend."
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Ma, for coming. Is Director Liu here?"
Ma Shengli said: "He is in the office, go find him directly."
Jiang Xi thanked him and went directly to Liu Weiqiang's office.
Liu Weiqiang was also surprised to see Jiang Xi. Before he could ask, Jiang Xi spoke first: "Director Liu, hello, I'm fine now."
Liu Weiqiang laughed and said, "I'm glad you're alright, but how did you know what I was going to ask?"
Jiang Xi deliberately made a bitter face and said, "Everyone I met today asked me if I was okay. I thought Director Liu would ask me the same, so I answered in advance."
Liu Weiqiang shook his head and smiled: "I'm glad you're okay. What are you doing here today?"
Jiang Xi said, "I'm here today to thank Director Liu for his continued help. Also, our chicken farm will be holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony the day after tomorrow afternoon. Do you have time to go?"
Liu Weiqiang frowned: "The day after tomorrow, maybe I won't have time."
Jiang Xi pretended to be regretful. "Is that so? Well, there's nothing we can do. Actually, the chicken farm was only possible thanks to County Magistrate Zhao. County Magistrate Zhao will also attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony the day after tomorrow. I was hoping you could go too."
Hearing that County Magistrate Zhao was going, Liu Weiqiang suddenly became cautious and changed his tone: "I've thought about it carefully and this is a good thing. I will make time to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony the day after tomorrow afternoon."
Jiang Xi smiled happily: "Thank you, Director Liu."
Jiang Xi didn't care about Liu Weiqiang's little tricks. Anyway, the more people went, the more people would support the chicken farm. The chicken farm would run more smoothly in the future, and those who wanted to make trouble would think twice. No matter what, it was a good thing for the chicken farm.
After inviting everyone, Jiang Xi returned to the chicken farm and told Xiufen and Liu Daqiang about the recruitment.
Jiang Xi said, "This is our first time recruiting external workers. Although we're only hiring ten people, we can't lower the standards. We'd rather have a shortage than hire the wrong people. We'll have a ribbon-cutting ceremony the day after tomorrow, so time is pretty tight. Even with the tight schedule, I hope we can proceed in an orderly manner so that when County Magistrate Zhao comes to the chicken farm, he'll see it in perfect order."
When they heard that County Magistrate Zhao was coming, Liu Daqiang and Xiufen were very excited. They had never thought that they would have any intersection with the county magistrate. They both looked at Jiang Xi with admiration. Jiang Xi was so amazing that even the county magistrate could invite him.
Liu Daqiang said carefully: "Okay, we will definitely do this seriously!"
Xiufen also nodded. In addition to learning chicken-raising techniques at the Weimin Chicken Farm, Xiufen also learned the management model of the Weimin Chicken Farm. She had already shared the notes she took with Liu Daqiang.
Liu Daqiang was originally a rough man with simple ideas. He had no experience in this area before, but after learning from Xiufen for a few days, he became more organized in doing things. When Jiang Xi issued a task, he was not as clueless as before and could quickly understand what Jiang Xi meant.
All of this stems from Liu Daqiang's strong sense of crisis in wanting to improve his abilities. After Xiufen went to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, she seemed like a different person. She became more confident and knew a lot. Not to mention raising chickens, she could talk about many things very clearly.
Liu Daqiang felt that if he didn't study hard, he would not be able to keep up with his wife. His wife was beautiful and capable. If she hadn't been born with a disability, Liu Daqiang would not have been able to win his wife's love.
Therefore, since Xiufen came back, Liu Daqiang has been studying with Xiufen every day while taking notes. Xiufen also keeps her notes in her hands and reviews them several times every day. Liu Daqiang is not to be outdone. The couple competes in studying and achieves remarkable results.
Therefore, after Jiang Xi proposed recruiting workers, Liu Daqiang and Xiufen were able to give some reasonable suggestions.
The three of them quickly discussed all the recruitment matters.
Jiang Xi said, "I posted a copy of the recruitment form at the entrance of the chicken farm, but this place is a bit remote, and considering that people might not notice it, I will also post a copy at the entrance of Wu Ji Zao Lu."
Liu Daqiang said: "I have already copied it. When the time comes, I will go to the streets to hand out a few copies and post a few in other conspicuous places to let more people know that we are recruiting."
Although Liu Daqiang had no experience in recruiting, the principle was the same as when buying things: it is better to compare prices from different stores. Although the number of people recruited was small, the more people knew about it, the more people would come, and the more likely they would be to screen out qualified talents.
Jiang Xi nodded: "That's a good idea. Let's do as you say. We only have two days to recruit workers, so time is quite tight. So let's not delay now and act separately."
Liu Daqiang's face lit up with praise. When he first started the chicken farm, he was very unsure. The more he learned from Xiufen, the more he felt that he knew very little. Now that his suggestions were accepted by Jiang Xi, Liu Daqiang was immediately energized. He patted his chest and said, "Leave it all to me. I'll go hand out flyers on the street right away!"
Xiufen also nodded. Praising Liu Daqiang was like praising herself, and Xiufen felt proud of it.
Jiang Xi returned to Wu Ji Zao Lu with the recruitment form and posted it on the door frame. He instructed Xie Xiaoju, "Xiaoju, when someone comes to buy something later, please tell them that our Changfeng County chicken farm is starting to recruit workers, and the recruitment period ends tomorrow."
Before Xie Xiaoju could agree to Zhao Xiaofen's request, she called out, "You guys opened a chicken farm, and you're hiring? Do you think I'm suitable? Can I go to work?"
Zhao Xiaofen happened to come to the county town to play today, and stopped by Wu Ji Zao Lu to chat with Xie Xiaoju. The two of them didn't get along originally, but because of Zhao Xiaofen's righteous tip-off last time, their relationship has improved.
Nowadays, you have to fight hard to get a decent job. Even an ordinary job is not easy to find. Zhao Xiaofen has never found a job and was already extremely anxious. When she saw the job posting, she immediately asked about it.
Working on the chicken farm is still a good job for Zhao Xiaofen. When everyone worked together in the past, working on the pig farm was the easiest job, so the same is true for the chicken farm.
Zhao Xiaofen looked at Jiang Xi expectantly, waiting for Jiang Xi's answer. Even Xie Xiaoju looked at Jiang Xi with the same eyes. She also wanted to get this job for Zhao Xiaofen.
Ever since Xie Xiaoju started working in the county town, she has felt more and more that it is great to have a job. She can make her own money, buy whatever she wants, and she doesn't have to suffer the dislike of her family. Oh no, she has completely gotten rid of her family now. Xie Xiaoju has always been open-minded. She was sad for a while at first, but later she didn't think about it at all. Whoever wants such a cold and ruthless father can have him.
The two girls were like two owls, their eyes gleaming. Jiang Xi found it a bit amusing: "There are specific requirements on the recruitment form. As long as you meet the requirements, you can sign up, but you will have to go through a subsequent screening assessment. Only if you pass the assessment can you work on the chicken farm."
Zhao Xiaofen nodded and said honestly, "Although I graduated from high school, my grades were very poor, just like Xiaoju's. My family doesn't have many connections, so they can't find me a job. I have nothing to do in the village. Apart from helping with housework, I have nothing else to do. I have been wanting to find a job for a long time. I envy Xiaoju for having a job. Now that I have the opportunity, I will definitely not miss it. I will definitely study hard and strive for it! Thank you for giving me this opportunity!"
Jiang Xi said: "Okay, prepare well, the interview will be tomorrow."
After Jiang Xi left, Xie Xiaoju was very upset: "You don't have to include me in your examples. I know I'm not good at studying, but there's no need to emphasize it so much."
Zhao Xiaofen scratched her head. "I just mentioned it casually. Your grades are not good to begin with, so why do you have to hide it? Besides, what does it matter if your grades are not good? You still have a job now and live a comfortable life in the county town. Don't you know that many girls in the village envy you?"
Xie Xiaoju just said that, then she laughed out loud when she heard what Zhao Xiaofen said: "Of course, it's because I have a good friend like Jiang Xi."
Zhao Xiaofen: "Yes, you are really lucky, but I remember that Jiang Xi had very good grades in school. Why did she become friends with you?"
Xie Xiaoju...it's totally impossible to continue the conversation today.
Xie Xiaoju handed Zhao Xiaofen the job application form that Jiang Xi had left in the store. "Take this to the village and give it to the girls there. Let them know the news. I heard that many people still haven't found a job."
Xie Xiaoju sighed with emotion, "There are really too few options for girls in our village. When they reach a certain age, they just get married, have endless children, work for the family, take care of the household, and then they get old. There's no chance for them to go out. I heard from Jiang Xi that there are many female bosses in Shanghai. They are all dressed up exquisitely and beautifully, doing business outside and spending their own money. It's really different from the village. You can show them these job openings and let them try if there is a chance."
Zhao Xiaofen was reluctant at first, because after all, she also wanted to compete for this position, and the more competitors there were, the smaller her chances of being selected.
But after hearing what Xie Xiaoju said, Zhao Xiaofen agreed: "Well, I'll tell them the news when I get back. They'll definitely be very happy. Even Ma Xiaomei has asked me once or twice how your work in the county is going."
Xie Xiaoju looked at Zhao Xiaofen with admiration: "Comrade Zhao, you are truly a man of high moral character. I've noticed before that you are such a helpful comrade."
Zhao Xiaofen blushed a little: "No, not really. I just want to help them."
Xie Xiaoju comforted her: "Don't worry, I think you will definitely be selected. After all, you are smart and hardworking, so the chances of being selected are very high."
Zhao Xiaofen received Xie Xiaoju's encouragement and happily returned to the village with two recruitment forms. Xie Xiaoju shook her head. The way she spoke just now sounded too much like Jiang Xi. It turned out that Jiang Xi often praised her in order to make her work harder. However, Xie Xiaoju immediately dismissed this idea. Jiang Xi was not that kind of person. She was absolutely sincere in praising herself.
There are few job opportunities in the village, but there is also a shortage of job opportunities in the county.
As soon as the recruitment quotas for the only two factories were released, they were all taken up internally. Even if you wanted to be a waiter in a state-owned restaurant, you had to find connections.
Jiang Xi's job posting immediately attracted a large crowd. Xie Xiaoju didn't even need to call out to them; they were already chattering and asking excitedly, "Are you hiring? Where are you?"
Liu Hongxia was in charge of selling the goods, while Xie Xiaoju took the initiative to introduce the workers: "The Changfeng County Chicken Farm is recruiting workers. You must apply according to the recruitment needs and cannot apply blindly."
"Changfeng County Chicken Farm? I've never heard of it. When did our Changfeng County have a chicken farm?"
Xie Xiaoju said proudly: "The Changfeng County chicken farm was opened specifically for Wu Ji Zao Lu. What we value most at Wu Ji Zao Lu is quality. To ensure quality, we opened a special chicken farm so that everyone can eat Zao Lu that is safe and made with conscience."
The crowd roared in delight. It was the first time they heard of a chicken farm being opened just to sell zaolu. Everyone couldn't help but look at the sign of Wu Ji Zaolu again. They had long felt that these four words were majestic and didn't seem like something that an ordinary person could write. Now it seemed that this store was indeed extraordinary. How good must the business be that they could even open a chicken farm just to sell zaolu.
Everyone sighed in their hearts, but that did not stop them from asking questions enthusiastically. These days, people are not lacking in enthusiasm for work, but what they lack is jobs. Everyone wants to seize this opportunity.
A thin woman asked, "Can women do this too?"
Xie Xiaoju: "Of course, men and women, as long as they meet the criteria, can participate."
Xie Xiaoju handed her an application form: "This is the application form. You can go back and fill it out and then submit it. We will have a unified interview tomorrow and a simple test. As long as you pass the test, we will announce the list of successful candidates on the spot."
The woman carefully took the application form and looked at it. It contained basic information, as well as what she could do on the chicken farm and what she was good at. "I'll definitely fill it out carefully."
Jiang Xi went back to the chicken farm and copied dozens of registration forms. There was currently no printer in Changfeng County, so everything had to be hand-copied. After Jiang Xi finished copying the registration forms, he stretched his slightly sore fingers and took the registration forms back to Wu Ji Zao Lu.
The entrance to Wu Ji Zao Lu was already crowded with people, and everyone was grabbing it like they were fighting over something free. Everyone raised their hands and said, "Give me one, give me one."
The number of application forms in Xie Xiaoju's hand became visibly fewer. Jiang Xi glanced at the application forms in his own hand and thought, "Okay, it's still not enough. I have to copy it again."
