A few days later, the advanced brigade came down, and their Qinggang Brigade was the first in the commune, which made the brigade leader very happy.
Then he immediately notified everyone in the team to gather at the threshing ground.
When everyone received the notice, they were all a little confused. They didn't know what big thing had happened. The team leader actually asked them to gather in the threshing ground.
Some people think in a negative way and feel very worried, while some people think in a positive way and feel very happy.
Then everyone walked towards the threshing ground, chattering and discussing all the way.
But we still couldn't come to a conclusion after discussing it, so we can only wait for the captain to speak in person to find out.
Everyone went to the threshing ground with doubts, and then when they saw the team leader, they asked him questions.
"Captain, is there something important you want to tell me?"
"Is the captain a good thing or a bad thing?"
The captain looked at everyone's reactions, and then said cheerfully, "Good news, great news."
When everyone heard this, they immediately became curious. What good news could this be that made the captain so happy?
Afterwards, the team leader walked onto the platform with a smile on his face, holding the Qinggang Team’s precious loudspeaker, and signaled everyone to be quiet.
After everyone quieted down, the captain immediately said happily.
"Our brigade was awarded the title of Advanced Brigade of the commune. It is an advanced brigade recognized by the commune. We have to thank He Zhiqing for establishing the soap factory, which enabled our Qinggang Brigade to be awarded the title of Advanced Brigade. We should thank her for her efforts..."
The captain was talking incessantly on the platform, and the people below heard him say that their brigade had won the title of advanced brigade, and they immediately exclaimed.
Then everyone was ecstatic. They actually won the title of advanced brigade of the commune. This was something they could never even think about, and it was the honor of the entire brigade.
So at this moment everyone was very happy and listened to the captain's words happily.
No one had expected that they would be awarded the title of Advanced Brigade, especially now that they saw the flag of the Advanced Brigade with the words "Advanced Brigade" written in golden fonts, everyone felt very warm in their hearts.
Then when everyone heard that the team leader would go to the commune to give a speech in a few days, their eyes widened. They didn't expect that the team leader would go to the commune to give a speech. This was an honor for the team.
The team leader's family was also very happy at this time, especially the team leader's wife, who knew that the old man was appreciated by the commune leaders.
Thinking of this, she immediately looked at He Xianqiu with gratitude, and then thought secretly that she would have to give something to thank He Zhiqing later. If it weren't for her, her old man would not have been appreciated by the commune leaders.
The team leader talked a lot on the platform, and then he talked about the soap factory, and then talked about He Xianqiu, and asked her to come up and speak, and then asked her to explain things.
When He Xianqiu heard it, he went up to the platform, took the loudspeaker from the captain, and started speaking.
"The soap factory can be what it is today, thanks to the support of the commune and the hard work and dedication of the brigade. The brigade leader is a good cadre who serves the people..."
He Xianqiu was telling the truth. The establishment of the soap factory was inseparable from the hard work of the team leader. It was he who went to the commune and proposed the idea, which led to the establishment of the soap factory.
Of course, it was also inseparable from the support of the commune. The commune invested funds to provide the capital for the establishment of the soap factory.
He Xianqiu said a lot, and the people below listened with warm hearts. Then He Xianqiu talked about the soap factory.
Considering that the soap factory is developing better and better now, more and more materials are needed and more and more orders are received. It is simply not possible to rely solely on the workers of the soap factory to pick up materials in the mountains, after all, the output is huge.
So He Xianqiu took advantage of this time when everyone was gathered in the threshing ground and proposed to everyone the idea of collecting materials.
Of course, He Xianqiu would not let the people in the team pick up materials for free, and would pay them wages.
However, everyone was happy to receive the title of advanced brigade, so they started discussing it, and He Xianqiu signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Everyone, be quiet, I have something to say."
When they heard He Xianqiu speak, everyone immediately quieted down and looked at He Xianqiu.
"He Xianqiu, if you have anything to say, please tell me."
"Yes, yes, we can help, and everyone will definitely do their part."
He Xianqiu smiled and nodded, saying okay, then began to say what she wanted to say.
"As everyone knows, the soap factory now has more and more orders, and the amount of materials needed for production is also increasing. It is not enough to rely on the workers of the soap factory to go to the mountains to collect materials. It also wastes the workers' time to make soap and the quantity cannot be increased."
"So, I've come up with a plan. When materials are needed, we'll organize everyone to go to the mountains to collect them. Of course, we won't let everyone collect the materials for free. We'll pay them. But this is temporary work. Also, because this task is relatively easy, I suggest leaving it to the families in need to complete. But the team leader will make the specific arrangements..."
When everyone heard He Xianqiu say that, they quickly spoke up.
"He Xianqiu, this is no problem. We will do it even if you don't pay us."
"Yes, even if you don't pay, as long as He Zhiqing says so, we will go there."
He Xianqiu listened to what everyone said, she smiled, then shook her head and said, "Thank you all for your support, but you still have to pay me. As for how to pay me, we will arrange it when the time comes."
Everyone smiled and nodded to show that they understood, but they were also happy to think that they could make money by picking up materials in the mountains.
After He Xianqiu said this, he said another thing, which is taking into account the growing size of the soap factory.
We also need to add some soap-making positions, a total of ten vacancies, and then select outstanding workers through interviews. Everyone is welcome to apply.
As for wages, they are settled on a monthly basis. They are formal employees of the soap factory, but there are also assessment standards and a probation period. Those who do not meet the standards will be replaced.
Then He Xianqiu mentioned another thing, which was that the soap factory had previously had its soap and materials destroyed.
Now we can’t rely on just one or two people to keep watch at the soap factory. We have to add more patrol teams to patrol the soap factory every night.
This job requires strong young men. Those who meet the requirements can also apply for an interview, and the wages will be settled on a monthly basis.
When everyone heard that more positions had been added, they all smiled and felt very excited. They decided to apply for the jobs when the time comes. After all, the soap factory pays well, there are frequent benefits, and internal employees get discounts when buying soap and perfumed soap.
He Xianqiu had said everything he needed to say, and there was nothing more to say, so he handed the loudspeaker to the team leader.
The team leader took the loudspeaker and said to everyone, "As everyone knows, our Qinggang team was able to win the title of advanced team because of the soap factory and because of He Zhiqing. It was she who established the soap factory. We should thank her for leading our team to develop..."
Everyone nodded and responded.
"We know that thanks to He Zhiqing's leadership, our brigade was able to win the honor of being an advanced brigade..."
After all, the advanced brigade represents the materials or resources that the commune will allocate to it in the future, so everyone is still clear-headed.
Knowing that this was because of the soap factory established by He Xianqiu, they were of course grateful to He Xianqiu.
The captain looked at everyone's reactions and nodded with satisfaction.
Then he reminded everyone: "We have won the advanced team, remember not to be proud and complacent, we must continue to work hard, and we must not do anything to undermine our advanced team..."
"Don't worry, Captain. We know what's going on."
The captain looked at everyone's reactions and attitudes with great satisfaction, and then spoke to everyone with a smile.
"That's all right. Let's go back and cook. Besides, this time our soap factory in Qinggang Brigade will buy a few pigs in the name of the brigade, so that every household can eat meat and make everyone happy..."
When everyone heard that there would be pork to share, they became very excited. This was meat, and many people hadn't eaten meat for a long time, so they became very excited just thinking about it.
Then, listening to what the captain said, everyone laughed and then spoke.
"Okay, okay, then let's wait until the pork is distributed, and then cook some meat dishes and be happy..."
"A few pigs. Every household in the brigade can get a lot..."
"It can be divided into several kilograms. This can be eaten for several meals..."
Just thinking about it makes everyone smile and my heart feels warm.
After that, everyone left happily, thinking that when the pig arrived, they would be able to cook some meat dishes, and they felt extremely happy in that instant.
Then I walked with more energy, as if all the fatigue from today's work was gone.
After He Xianqiu came down, she saw everyone smiling so relaxedly for the first time, and she felt a little happy too.
At this time, the captain walked towards He Xianqiu and thanked He Xianqiu sincerely.
"He Zhiqing, thank you for your hard work. If it weren't for you, our Qinggang Brigade wouldn't have won the honor of being an advanced brigade. After we built the soap factory, many people in the brigade became workers, and some families with poor conditions no longer had to go hungry..."
"The educated youth went to the countryside for re-education in order to benefit everyone. I am happy that I can do what I can for everyone," said He Xianqiu with a smile.
Most of the people here are simple and honest. They have shown kindness to He Xianqiu, sent her gifts, and done other heartwarming things.
She was also very happy that she could lead the soap factory to the best of her ability so that more people could become workers and have enough food to eat.
The team leader was very happy to hear what He Xianqiu said, and he admired He Xianqiu for his high awareness and ability, and he was worthy of being an educated youth from the city.
"We still have to thank He Zhiqing. If it weren't for your leadership, the brigade wouldn't be in this state."
He Xianqiu shook his head and said to the team leader: "Captain, the team can have a cadre like you who serves the people, so that everyone can live better and better. The same goes for the soap factory. With you watching over it, everyone can rest assured."
When the captain heard He Xianqiu's praise, he was happy and immediately smiled.
He was happy that someone could see his efforts.
After that, the two chatted for a while and then went back to their homes.
He Xianqiu looked at the captain's back and breathed a sigh of relief. Just now you praised me and I praised you, and we have been praising each other in business for too long.
But not long after, when she went to the captain's house, the captain's wife stuffed her with a lot of food, including some biscuits and sausages, to thank her for her contribution to the group.
This made He Xianqiu feel very embarrassed, and he refused to accept it. However, the captain's wife followed up and said a lot.
He Xianqiu accepted the biscuits, but she refused to accept the sausages.
This piece of sausage may not seem expensive in the modern world, but at that time, it was very precious. After all, many people at that time could not eat much meat throughout the year.
Then the fact that the captain's wife sent her meat was enough to show that she was really grateful to her.
Seeing that she really refused to take the sausage, the captain's wife had no choice but to take the sausage in.
He Xianqiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the captain's wife go in. His aunt was so enthusiastic.
Ji Chenzhou looked at He Xianqiu from the side, let out a small breath, and smiled with his lips pursed. This little action was cute no matter how you looked at it.
Seeing that there was no one around, Ji Chenzhou touched He Xianqiu's head.
He Xianqiu was still a little confused after being touched by him.
"Zhou Zhou, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing. Let's go. You must be hungry now. Let's go back and cook." Ji Chenzhou said with a smile.
He Xianqiu nodded: "Go back."
Ji Chenzhou looked at He Xianqiu and smiled, "Qiuqiu, what do you want to eat?"
He Xianqiu pondered: "So many, so many, I want to eat them all..."
There are so many things I want to eat, such as big plate chicken, braised spareribs, steamed hairy crabs, stir-fried beef with chili peppers, cabbage soup, etc.
Ji Chenzhou watched her in deep thought, he smiled, his eyes full of tenderness, and walked towards the old house step by step holding He Xianqiu's hand.
"Let's go, I'm thinking as I walk. We brought back a lot of meat today, and we also paid for some shrimps..."
When He Xianqiu heard this, his eyes lit up. There was actually a shrimp. He immediately turned around and pulled Ji Chenzhou away.
"Come on, let's go home."
Ji Chenzhou looked at her and said gently, "Okay, let's go home."
