Working in the fields requires facing the earth and working with your back to the sky. It is hot, tiring, dirty and hard.
Soap-making workers only need to sit in the production workshop every day. The work is simple but strenuous.
So this is a really bad job.
There is no one who has signed up.
The job of making soap mainly tests physical strength, nothing else. After a simple physical test, Xu Huainian temporarily only selected three people.
Two of them are among the strongest men in the village, and they usually get full work points.
Another one is the educated youth Zhu Chunlin.
Because the educated youth were also members of the collective, there were no restrictions on their registration.
I thought all the educated youth in the educated youth center were cowards, but I didn't expect to miss Zhu Chunlin, a fool.
It was a coincidence that Zhu Chunlin had been busy building the house from morning till night during this period. Now the house is finally built and he has moved into his new home.
I encountered the good news that the village was hiring workers, so I came here directly.
The exercise during the period of building the house gave me unprecedented strength, and I stood out among the old men.
Xu Huainian knew him. He was the only one in the educated youth camp who was decent at work. He was a cunning and meticulous person, but he was a simple-minded person. It was just right for him.
So Xu Huainian took the initiative to record it.
Many people in the village were quite dissatisfied with 놛's decision, thinking that 놛 was turning its elbow outward, favoring the educated youth and 놊뇇 its own people.
Xu Huainian was the factory director and had the final say. He still insisted on hiring Zhu Chunlin, and no one could intercede or use a backdoor.
Facts have proved that he is right. Zhu Chunlin is a scholar after all, and he did not forget to observe and summarize carefully while working hard.
After trying it out on the job, I found that Zhu Chunlin applied the soap more evenly and faster than the two men, and he mastered the key points right away.
He is also meticulous in his work and has a keen eye for detail.
This employee made the right choice.
Xu Huainian and his men worked overtime to make soap, and with division of labor and cooperation, their efficiency improved a lot.
And gradually figured out some tricks in management and division of labor.
Zhu Chunlin and Lin Shengnan's new house was built, and they only hired a few educated youth with good connections and village cadres.
Gu Qinghuan was also invited.
She directly sent a bunch of things over.
There was a wall clock for telling time, a new flashlight, and a set of fashionable tea sets, including a teapot and ten cups, which looked very exquisite.
There were also sheets for the bed, as well as a roll of cloth and cotton, which were for making new quilts for them. Gu Qinghuan noticed last time that their quilts were small and thin, and they would definitely not be warm in winter.
Lin Shengnan is due in the second half of the year and is prone to catching cold during pregnancy.
Gu Qinghuan didn't spend a penny on these things.
The couple were very honest. If they said they would split the profits in half, they meant it. Every time Zhu Chunlin came to sell loach, he would take the initiative to keep half of the money.
After a while, Gu Qinghuan helped them save nearly a hundred yuan.
The money I used to buy things this time was taken out of that banknote, and there is still quite a bit left.
Gu Qinghuan decided to wait until Lin Shengnan gave birth in the second half of the year, and use the remaining money to buy her some confinement items and baby products.
Of course, she bought all these things quietly without letting anyone know.
They were reluctant to accept it at first, but Gu Qinghuan persuaded them to accept it.
Because they made a small fortune from selling yellowtail loaches with Gu Qinghuan, they still had some savings after building the house, so they were not short of money.
The new house has all the basic furniture, all made by Carpenter Xu, so they are sturdy and durable.
With the addition of the things sent by Gu Qinghuan, the room became a little more lively.
The food was not particularly good, but it was just okay.
Zhu Chunlin specially got a pound of meat to make a pot of pork stewed with beans. He also stewed the carp caught in the river with the tofu. The taste was also very good and delicious.
There are also dipping sauces that the locals like.
Just fry the eggs and sauce and put them on the table, add various vegetables and you can start cooking.
Those who are doing well in the village will make some sauce, and now is the time to make some sauce.
Lin Shengnan has become more and more capable of managing her daily life since her marriage, and this year she also got married like one of the women in the village.
When she first came to Northeast China, she was not used to eating this sauce and thought it was too salty, but now she is used to it.
The first month and the second month of the lunar calendar are the time to make the Northeast Korean sauce. After the sauce is fermented, it is made on one of the three days, namely the 8th, 18th and 28th day of the lunar month.
The 꺶醬, which does not require any technology or hard work, tastes very fragrant, and the taste of the 꺶醬 made by each person varies depending on the person's technique.
Gu Qinghuan was used to eating other people's sauces, but she liked the sauce made by Chen Fengqin very much.
Unexpectedly, she could eat the sauce made by Lin Shengnan, and it tasted better and better.
She ate all the cucumbers on the table by herself with sauce.
Lin Shengnan also laughed and said: "I invited you to dinner, but you just ate a few cucumbers."
"This sauce you made is delicious!" Gu Qinghuan said innocently while holding up the cucumber.
"If you like to eat, you can come to my house anytime. There is plenty in the sauce jar."
"Okay, I'm being polite to you, and you don't have to be polite to me. I have some spicy cabbage at home. Do you think it will whet your appetite? Come to my house anytime if you want to eat some." Gu Qinghuan said with a smile.
"Okay, since I got pregnant, my appetite has become less and I like to eat spicy and sour food. The spicy cabbage you made is really good. Teach me tomorrow. Next year, I will make two jars of it. It tastes better than sauerkraut!"
While the two were talking, Chen Jianghe, who was sitting opposite them, stared at Gu Qinghuan intently.
I haven't seen Gu Qinghuan for a long time.
She became more dazzling and dazzling, while 땤놛 became more bleak and depressed.
놛누 now dares to tell her family about her marriage. Xu Meiling is due to give birth in the next two months, and she has been making trouble at home all day, hoping that 놛 will write a letter to her family to inform them of the news.
He was busy earning work points and taking care of Xu Meiling. The house was a mess and he was really overwhelmed.
놛's follower and roommate Zhu Chunlin is now living a better life than 놛.
A new house was built, and the wife was pregnant. The two worked together to keep the house in order, and they discussed every little thing with each other, including how to treat people and things.
Chen Jianghe was extremely jealous.
Only after experiencing it, can one know what he wants most. In the past, he was ambitious and always felt that he deserved the best.
Life has played a big joke on me. Now I just want to be like an ordinary person and do what I do.
He looked at the other man's wife, and then at his own pig, and was so angry that he wanted to jump into the river and drown himself.
Sometimes I would fantasize about what would happen if I had married Gu Qinghuan.
In short, it's better than now anyway.
Gu Qinghuan rolled his eyes and continued talking to Lin Shengnan.
Zhu Chunlin lived in his new house and had a decent job, which was a double blessing.
The stone in Lin Shengnan's heart finally fell, and she believed that their lives would only get better and better.
Except for Chen Jianghe, everyone in the family enjoyed the meal very much.
With the addition of three soap workers, Xu Huainian led the family to successfully complete an order for 10,000 soaps, with 1,000 pieces sold every day.
This time, Gu Qinghuan also reminded him.
놛 started stocking up on her own, and the warehouse was filled with soap, ready for supply at any time.
The factory's business began to get on track.
Gu Qinghuan no longer needs to worry about it. She has already paved the way. As long as Xu Huainian is stupid, he should know what to do.
End of the month
It rained for half a month in a row, and Gu Qinghuan had to live in school.
One night, there was a loud bang.
She got up to check the situation.
Lin Xiaomeng also got up, and the two of them went out together.
Just in front of me, I heard someone shouting, "Hurry, the wall of the girls' dormitory has collapsed, find someone to help!"
The two of them jumped faster, even ignoring their umbrellas, and rushed into the rainy night with flashlights in hand.
You know, there are many students living in the dormitory. What will happen if something happens?
The girls' dormitory was built near the wall and it looked like it was quite old. This time, because it rained for too long, a landslide occurred on the wall and some rocks rushed down, hitting the already fragile wall, causing it to collapse directly.
When Gu Qinghuan and Lin Xiaomeng arrived at the scene, several teachers were already there. Because the situation was urgent, the male teachers didn't bother to avoid suspicion and just opened the door and rushed in.
The girls were crying and shouting while checking on the students, and the scene was in chaos.
Fortunately, the rock fell from the middle of the wall, and the beds in the dormitory were distributed on both sides, so there was no serious damage.
The girls on the two beds closer to the wall were injured by the falling bricks.
Gu Qinghuan was in a state of panic and ordered the uninjured girls to follow Lin Xiaomeng and find a safe place to calm down.
She calmed the two injured girls and asked two male teachers to carry them out. They could no longer stay here.
Principal Chen and his teachers then rushed over and began arranging for their students to be relocated to avoid further harm.
There was nowhere else to go at night, so Gu Qinghuan arranged for the two girls to stay in his dormitory.
After changing the two children into clean clothes and giving them a glass of spiritual spring water, I checked their injuries again and cleaned the abrasions on their bodies. Then I put the gauze aside to make sure that there were no broken bones.
Lin Xiaomeng also brought the frightened girls to her dormitory and cooked ginger soup for them to drink.
The two of them had time to change out of their wet clothes.
Who could have imagined that when it rains it pours?
Fortunately, the evacuation was timely, but in the second half of the night, several more dormitories were crushed by the rubble above.
No one in the family rested that night.
The next morning, the two injured girls were sent to the county hospital for examination and treatment.
Principal Chen called a meeting of all the students to brainstorm and discuss what to do about this matter!
After the catastrophe last night, no one dared to live in the girls' dormitory anymore.
Fortunately, the teachers took the risk and packed up the children's daily necessities last night.
Several warm-hearted family members were organizing a fire to dry the children's wet quilts.
Principal Chen was also in a very difficult situation.
The school now has no money to renovate the buildings, let alone rebuild the dormitories.
After thinking about it, the idea of repairing it is not feasible. If rocks fall from the wall again, it will be a huge safety hazard.
In the end, everyone at the meeting came to an understanding. After all, a good cook cannot cook without rice, and without money, one cannot take a single step.
Principal Chen could only ask the teacher in charge of logistics to vacate two empty classrooms for the children to live in first.
We'll take things one step at a time regarding the dormitory.
Fortunately, the weather is warm now, so we can sleep anywhere.
When Gu Qinghuan learned about Principal Chen's predicament, he had an idea.
I got the treasure from Mr. Wang recently, and it's time to put it to use. It can be regarded as accumulating virtue and doing good deeds for Mr. Wang. I hope that our family will enter reincarnation soon!
Gu Qinghuan wrote a letter to Principal Chen with his left hand, explaining that he was willing to donate two gold bars to help build the school building.
The name left at the end of the letter was Wang Zhiyuan, with the seal of 놛 on it.
Principal Chen thought it was a prank, but when he touched the envelope, he found there were actually two gold bars.
No matter who this Wang Zhiyuan was, his two gold bars undoubtedly solved the school's urgent needs.
