Chapter 166
Large machines were shipped to the branch factory, some of which came from the original factory in Laiyang County and some were custom-made locally.
The person in charge of transporting the machines was a local from Laiyang County. As he drove towards an uninhabited place, he had no idea about the branch factory and thought it was normal for it to be a small factory.
It wasn't until the true appearance of the branch factory appeared before him that he realized the Laifu Food Factory had been established for some time, leaving the building bearing the marks of time. It was nothing like the current branch factory. The tallest building was three stories high, painted with white putty, and the roof structure was characteristic of Ningchuan City. It was completely new, and for a moment he was a little surprised.
The gatekeepers were two young college students.
As the car drove away, the two young men began to chat, "Hey, I did pretty well, didn't I?"
"It's okay. I don't know when Mr. Lu will come."
They had different classes every day, so they worked in shifts, and after taking turns working, the monthly salary could be shared among the ten or so people. Initially, they had some objections—after all, they were just gatekeepers, and they were university graduates—but Lu Qin's explanation that they were guarding the gates was to serve as a signboard made it easier to accept.
As soon as we parked the car, someone came over to help move the machine. They were a group of young people and their attitude was particularly enthusiastic.
The comrades at the transport station felt that since entering the office today, they had not encountered a single man or woman over 30 years old. One of them was Comrade Zhou Jun, who was now walking towards them.
Zhou Jun checked the time and said hello, "Comrades, thank you for your hard work. Just unload your things here."
The machines purchased locally had arrived a long time ago. This batch was shipped from Laiyang County. The factory was connected to electricity. Once everyone was gathered, they could start recruiting and training people, and then get the factory up and running.
The machine was unloaded from the car, and the factory would probably be operational next month. Zhou Jun turned his head to look towards the gate, but still could not see Lu Qin.
"lead."
There were two young men who saw the scene here and ran over to help.
Zhou Jun looked at these young comrades and smiled subconsciously, "I don't need your help."
"It's okay. We promised Mr. Lu that this is our own factory. It's no big deal if we just help."
Zhou Jun: My own factory
As the machines were being unloaded, Lu Qin and Kong Dongdong finally appeared at the gate. It was already August, and schools had let out their summer vacation early, so young people were everywhere in the factory.
Under the scorching sun, the cars were ready to leave.
Lu Qin rolled up his sleeves and said in surprise, "Everything has been moved."
He just slept in for a while.
Zhou Jun couldn't tell if he did it on purpose, but that wasn't the point. "The machines have been moved in, so we can get busy with the signboard."
Zhou Jun was sent here to control the overall situation.
"Okay."
There were one or two young comrades following behind Lu Qin. When they heard Zhou Jun's words, their eyes lit up.
Lu Qin promised them, "Don't worry, you don't have to attend the interview. Just come directly. Our factory can make the decision on this matter."
Zhou Jun didn't say anything. After all, the names they signed were still on record.
However, the young comrades were now only filled with gratitude, because it turned out that what Lu had promised them was true.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu."
The machine factory is less than half the size of Lailaifu Foods, but the factory has limited funds, so the scale can only be expanded to this size for the time being.
Lu Qin turned around and saw Kong Dongdong following him, so he walked around the machine leisurely with his hands behind his back.
"Boss, when will the person sent by the factory director to be in charge of training arrive?"
For example, machine operation cannot be done directly, and requires certain skills. Such training personnel need to have certain experience and skills.
Director Ren is more anxious about the branch factory's affairs than anyone else.
Zhou Jun didn't feel anything about his address. "The machine arrived today, and the person will be here tomorrow."
Kong Dongdong stood on tiptoe to take a look, then followed his uncle, walking around with his hands behind his back in a very professional manner.
Lu Qin laughed when he heard the answer, "It seems the factory director is also very anxious."
How can we not be anxious? Building a branch factory requires huge investment of money and manpower, and we have to make a name for ourselves with the leaders above. Now that we have done it, we have to make a name for ourselves.
After a walk around, Lu Qin saw that there was plenty of time, so he thought it was time to get busy. He intended to gather several young comrades.
After I put forward my idea to Zhou Jun, I asked him, “Are you going?”
Zhou Jun, "Go..."
As soon as the new loudspeaker sounded, people gathered quickly.
"lead."
Lu Qin waved his hand, smiling, "Just call me Classmate Lu or Lu Qin. I'm not used to you calling me that. I came here today to discuss something with you."
His approachable and unpretentious approach makes people feel comfortable.
Several young comrades, led by Liu Zhi, watched the branch factory being built up bit by bit. In four months, under the baptism of Lu Qin's repeated words "our factory", they more or less felt a sense of belonging to the factory.
At most, they would call him "Student Lu."
Lu Qin gave a look that said, "That's right." "So, let's split up into teams based on the positions you'll be assigned during the summer vacation."
In the past four months, there are people standing guard, people responsible for settling material wages, people responsible for cleaning, and people responsible for the newly painted promotional posters of the branch factory. They have a clear understanding of their own areas.
Zhou Jun didn't know what Lu Qin was doing, but he saw the people below quickly divided into teams.
Compared with older comrades, young people react much more quickly and can repeat something many times without being told to do so.
It only took ten seconds for people to be divided into teams.
Lu Qin clapped his hands to attract their attention.
Kong Dongdong, who was originally sitting in his seat and doing his homework with his legs swinging, also looked over.
Lu Qin smiled first and said, "Thank you all for your hard work during this period."
"It's not hard." Voices came one after another from below.
"Student Lu, we are not working hard, but you are."
Zhou Jun stood at the side, looking at his back, and he raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lu Qin paused and turned serious. "As you all know, the next step is recruiting. The factory trainers will be here tomorrow. First of all, I want to say that you can skip the recruitment process. In simple terms, you can join the factory directly. This is what I promised you before. We at Life Food Factory keep our word."
Some people below received the news directly, but they are still very happy.
"But," Lu Qin glanced at the people below, "we still have a very important task for you to complete."
A word of "but" can make people's mood fluctuate.
Zhou Jun folded his arms as he watched him speak, feeling that Lu Qin had the potential to be a leader.
Everyone looked at each other and said, "Student Lu, you say."
"We worked so hard to build this factory, and we'll start recruiting tomorrow. I believe you all want the factory to grow even better, so I'd like you to be responsible for some of the training after we recruit the right people."
"Mr. Lu, this training work" is what they mean literally.
The kind that stands in front and teaches them how to do their job.
Lu Qin then confirmed their inner thoughts, "You will be responsible for training them on specific work matters. However, the training salary is very low, so it depends on your willingness."
Ah, the salary is low.
Lu Qin added, "But as trainees, you're definitely more familiar with the matter than they are. You might be able to get more votes during the promotion vote in three years. If you want to go, just sign up with Section Chief Zhou later."
The fishing rod is just left there, and it depends on whether they bite or not.
Noticing their gazes, Zhou Jun suddenly lowered his hands as he listened. He finally understood why Director Ren had said Lu Qin was so quick-witted.
Clearly nothing was promised, but a certain rule was revealed.
That's right, the training lasted nearly a week, but it was enough for them to get familiar with the team. Furthermore, the young comrades had never done training before, so they were all interested in new things.
After everyone dispersed, Zhou Jun thought back to the account book he had recently seen, "So this is how the factory's expenses have been saved recently."
These days he finally understood why those people stayed in the factory so wholeheartedly and kept calling it "our factory".
Lu Qin was unwilling to hold Kong Dongdong's hand in the scorching heat, letting him walk on his own. Hearing this, he sighed, "Well, the key is that we young comrades have the ability to do this."
