Seeing that the others were about to leave, Aunt Liu said, "Erzhuang, come in here for a moment and pay one cent for breakfast. All of you brothers and sisters have paid. If you don't pay, you won't get breakfast."
Liu Erzhuang was angry, but he still took out a dime from his pocket and gave it to Aunt Liu.
Seeing that no one else was paying attention, Aunt Liu slipped a piece of candy into Liu Erzhuang's palm.
Liu Erzhuang found a small thing in his palm and was about to mutter something about it when Aunt Liu pinched his hand.
Why did you pinch me?!
Aunt Liu's eyes were practically popping out of their sockets. This guy really didn't try to hide anything. If she didn't pinch him, would the others have been able to?!
"Come with me."
Liu Erzhuang was unhappy, but he still went out with his NPC mother, and then he saw the village clinic.
"Stretch out your hand so the doctor can apply the medicine. Don't complain when you get home. We don't have much money at home, and all you do is spend it. Once your hand is healed, go and carry manure. It's your own fault for not apologizing properly yesterday."
Liu Erzhuang's heart, which had been bitter all night, finally felt a little better. He stopped scrambling and obediently reached out to take the medicine.
【No way, isn't this favoritism?! Giving Erzhuang candy?! !!!】
[Fine, I'm already ready to punch you, and this show still pulls this stunt on me?!]
Liu Xiaozhuang went out with the others, but when he heard Liu Erzhuang shouting, he quietly slipped back and saw Aunt Liu taking Liu Erzhuang to the clinic.
His eyes darted around, and an idea popped into his head.
Wu Mei and San Mei complained, "The soap factory and the sewing machine factory aren't hiring, but the food factory has applied, but there are just too many people."
Sanmei sighed, "You bet there are far fewer job opportunities compared to the first season."
After the four met, they summarized the information and even went to check on the freight.
Liu Xiaozhuang complained, "A food factory has a lot of people?! You guys didn't see the people at the freight station. They all have A1 driver's licenses and are lining up. It's true that opportunity favors the prepared. I should have gotten an A1 driver's license too."
Liu Dazhuang suddenly ran over, shouting, "Quick, quick, the newly opened meat processing plant is hiring..."
Before Liu Dazhuang could finish speaking, the other four people disappeared in a flash.
"What?! You guys ran so fast?! Wait for me!"
Liu Dazhuang felt heartbroken. He was clearly the youngest of the family! Why did he always feel like he was the one making all the sacrifices for the family?!
What is a meat processing plant?! A new plant?! Wow!!!
[I took a look, it's Sister Fang's livestock farm. Many of the animals are already ready to be slaughtered for meat; I guess that's why they've started hiring workers.]
[I love it! Historical fiction always says meat processing plants offer amazing benefits, and now I can finally see what one looks like!]
"We need a big one, someone who can hold down a pig. You're too weak, next one."
The people in line behind were stunned. "Huh?! No exam?! They're just rejecting us outright?!"
The meat processing plant recruiter banged on the table, picked up a megaphone, and announced, "Those who are weak don't need to line up! Those who can't stand blood or are afraid of blood don't need to line up either! There will be a written test! But those who aren't physically fit can't apply!!"
Liu Dazhuang felt a little apprehensive. He wasn't originally thin, but compared to Erzhuang, Sizhuang, and Xiaozhuang, he did appear somewhat thin, but he was strong!
The three beauties were a little disappointed, but they were still determined to queue up.
Seeing that no one left the line, the recruiters sighed and let them go.
When it was Sanmei's turn, she was unsurprisingly rejected and left the group dejectedly.
Before the other party could refuse, the five women preemptively said, "No, comrade, you have to let me try! Don't let my skinny appearance fool you, I'm very strong!! Really!!"
The recruiter had never seen anyone so eager to get a job. "If you can lift this guy up, I'll sign you up."
Wu Mei looked at the burly man beside her, who was over 1.8 meters tall and a head taller than her. She swallowed hard. No way, this man's arms were thicker than her waist!
Wu Mei was still persistent and asked, "Are there any other positions? There must be some more specialized ones."
The recruiter finally looked up at her. This young girl was quite quick-witted and managed to get some useful information. Since no one else asked, he felt awkward about revealing the information.
The recruiter lowered his voice and said, "Go check out the grocery store."
The five beauties quickly thanked them, then grabbed the three beauties who were standing there in a daze and ran away.
Liu Sizhuang, who was behind her, asked with some confusion, "Where are you going?"
"We have something to do, we'll go home by ourselves later!"
Wu Mei dragged San Mei straight to the grocery store. When they went inside, there were hardly any people there, and the shelves were completely empty, with nothing left.
There weren't many employees; some were chatting, and others were wiping the shelves.
Wu Mei found a kind-looking older woman and said, "Sister, the meat processing plant asked us to come and interview for a sales clerk position at the grocery store."
"A meat processing plant?!"
Wang Hui was surprised that someone actually found this hidden job posting, since state-run grocery stores don't advertise openly.
"Go to the second floor and register with Director Wu."
Sanmei's face was full of smiles. She was about to give up, but if Wumei hadn't pulled her over, she probably would have been preparing for the food factory exam.
As the two were leaving the grocery store, he said, "Let me treat you to some steamed buns."
The five beauties didn't stand on ceremony and said, "Okay."
Yesterday, Liu Xiaozhuang went back home and talked about his day's experiences. He said how delicious the meat buns at the state-run restaurant were, and how they cost five cents each, and you had to exchange them for grain coupons.
Sanmei was worried that the money she had wouldn't be enough to buy two food coupons, and she was also concerned that the money for steamed buns wouldn't be enough. "When I earn money in the future, I'll treat you to meat buns."
"OK."
The two ate steaming white flour buns, each bigger than a fist. Their soft texture soothed their throats, which had been ravaged by the multigrain porridge that morning.
The five women exclaimed, "It smells so good! It's a pity we don't have any flour at home, otherwise I wouldn't have made it either, hehe."
The three women burst into laughter. "I do know how to make it, but we don't have yeast or flour here."
"You can cook?!"
The three beauties met the five beauties' bright, sparkling eyes, wondering what was so amazing about this.
"Wow, you have no idea how much I loved Sister Sheng from the last season, her cooking was amazing..."
The five beauties talked about their idols the whole way, while the third beauty laughed and said, "I only know how to cook some home-style dishes, I'm not that good at it."
"You're really good at home cooking now, just you wait. I've got this in mind. If I ever find you a suitable job, you'll have to give me a rebate!"
Sanmei smiled, feeling that Wumei was always full of whimsical ideas. She was not as capable as Sister Sheng. She had not expected to be selected, and the time before the competition started was very rushed. So, when she heard others talking about how well they had prepared, she felt that she had no advantage at all.
