Chapter 39: Change the Marriage
Zhou Xiao humbly talked to Zheng Shu for a few words. His attitude was that of a younger generation showing respect to the elders, and his words and actions were measured.
When Zheng Shu asked him about his future plans, he seemed to have a plan in mind, and he also subtly asked about the direction of the new policies in recent years.
Zheng Shu looked at the two people sitting together, whose appearance and brains were extremely compatible, and sighed inwardly.
The fiancé chosen by this big family is indeed not chosen casually. Appearance, potential, character and how to deal with people are all taken into consideration.
Once his leg is healed, maybe within two years, he will be able to hear Zhou Xiao's name alone.
The main matter was successfully resolved, and Zheng Shu still had to go back to deal with the remaining matters of factory construction.
For example, say hello to the unit and get the factory construction information done quickly, such as the site selection for the factory.
The factory is said to be built in Xiaohe Village, but Xiaohe Village is not very big. In addition, the construction of the factory cannot delay the agricultural production in the village. It also needs to be located in an appropriate location with convenient access. This requires careful consideration.
"Then Comrade Xiao Jiang, we will go back first. We will let someone inform you once the location of the factory is determined." Zheng Shu stood up and said with a smile.
Mayor Gu also stood up quickly.
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news." Jiang Yu stood up to see him off.
After sending the two to the door and opening the gate, they were met with a group of reserved faces.
Knowing that these were villagers from Xiaohe Village and that building a factory in the village would require their cooperation, Zheng Shu's smile was particularly friendly.
He specifically praised Jiang Yu in person and revealed the details of the factory construction.
"You are all from the village, right? You are lucky to have such a patriotic and outstanding comrade like Xiao Jiang."
"Comrade Xiao Jiang plans to build an enamel factory in Xiaohe Village. She is a good person and will give priority to people from the village when recruiting workers. You should thank such a good comrade."
Yes, cooperate more and don’t create some mess and ruin this great thing.
Zheng Shu did not say this on his own initiative; Jiang Yu had revealed this idea before.
If it was said by his leader at the right time, it would bring Jiang Yu a lot of fame. After all, no matter how good an entrepreneur is, he cannot brag by himself. He needs others to set the stage for him.
Sure enough, when Zheng Shu said these words, the villagers were stunned for a moment, then became so excited that they almost jumped up.
"Leader, is the village really going to build a factory?"
"Are you really going to give priority to hiring us as workers in the factory?"
Among them, few have received a proper education. Most of them have undergone literacy training and can barely recognize a few words. They dare not even think about working in a factory.
Workers, workers in proper work clothes!
In their minds, only decent intellectuals can be that person.
Can these peasants who work in the fields to make a living really do it?
When everyone wanted to believe, but couldn't believe that such a good thing would happen to them.
Zhang Guixiang, who had known about the factory construction for a long time, felt very proud.
She put her hands on her hips and shouted to everyone, "Can what the leader said be false?"
"I tell you, this great thing is all because Comrade Xiao Jiang saw that the villagers were living in poverty, so he chose to build the factory and recruit people in the village."
"Otherwise, Comrade Xiao Jiang is such a rich man, he could have built a factory in a big city, why did he choose such a remote village?"
Words came out of Zhang Guixiang's mouth one after another, but this time no one scolded her for showing off.
When the villagers saw Zheng Shu smiling and nodding, confirming that the factory construction was true, they were so happy.
"How come Comrade Jiang is so nice? We haven't even spoken to her."
"When I first saw Comrade Jiang, I thought he was a patriotic comrade who served his country and his people, and I was right."
"Comrade Jiang, how many workers do you want to recruit? The men in my family are all strong and healthy, and they can definitely complete the work tasks well."
An aunt was quick to bring some meat and eggs to Jiang Yu and asked eagerly.
"What are the requirements for recruitment? I'll ask my husband and son to prepare."
Jiang Yu looked at the aunt's clothes, which were patched but clean, her nails were clean, and her hair was neatly combed, and she said.
"It will take a few days to recruit workers, but Auntie likes cleanliness, so when we build the factory, we will first hire someone to cook. If you can cook, you can give it a try."
The aunt was stunned for a moment. She only wanted her husband and son to be workers and never thought that she could do it too.
"I, I can do it too?"
Jiang Yu: "Of course, the factory will definitely recruit cooks and waiters. Aunties who can cook, love cleanliness, and work efficiently can come for the interview."
The aunties and sisters around couldn't help but feel moved when they saw this scene.
Yes, if men can work in factories, why can’t they?
They are the ones who take care of everything in the house. They can't do anything else. Isn't cooking and serving meals what they have to do every day?
The aunts are no longer in a hurry to ask about the men in the family working as workers, but instead ask when they will hire someone to cook.
Anyway, if someone in the family wants to work in the factory to earn money, they can do it too.
Seeing Jiang Yu being surrounded enthusiastically, Zheng Shu and Mayor Gu finally broke free from the crowd and watched as other people who had received the news rushed to Zhou's house.
The two looked at each other. It had been a long time since they had seen such vitality.
Money is a good thing, it makes people more lively.
Because Jiang Yu was planning to build a factory in the village, not many people noticed them when the car drove out of the village.
Everyone is busy finding out when the recruitment will start and whether they can meet the requirements to be workers.
When the news reached the Shen family, the eldest daughter, who had just returned home from the fields and had not had time to eat a bite of food, looked pale.
"Aren't rich people the smartest? How could they build a factory in the village? If you have money, why don't you go to the city? It's so convenient in the city."
The neighbor who came to buy eggs from the eldest wife and wanted to deliver them to Zhou's house gave them a cold look.
"Comrade Jiang is a patriotic comrade. How can he be the same as those rich people?"
"Comrade Jiang built a factory in the village because he saw that we were poor and had little income. If you are not happy, don't apply for the job."
The young wife's words were full of gratitude to Jiang Yu, which made the head of the Shen family's wife look gloomy.
When the neighbors saw this, they remembered that they often competed with Zhang Guixiang and had called Jiang Yu a fake foreigner, and they immediately regretted coming here to buy eggs.
Without waiting for the stunned Mrs. Shen to reach out for the money, the neighbor quickly put the money into his pocket.
"Well, I remembered that I still have eggs at home, so I won't buy any."
After saying that, he left, leaving behind Shen Dasao and a few others with gloomy faces, standing there in a daze.
Shen Yongfu, the eldest son of the Shen family, who was desperate to get a job in the factory, didn't believe that his neighbors had gone all the way to talk to them, and said while grabbing his hair in annoyance.
"What if the fake foreigners really want to build a factory?"
"With the mess at home and at the Zhou family, will she still hire us to work in the factory?"
Shen Yongfu looked at his mother.
"I don't care. I finally got the chance to be a worker. My family must help me. At worst, I can ask Shen Hui not to marry into the Li family and change the marriage plan."
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.
"By then, I will be the Zhou family's eldest brother-in-law. I don't believe that fake foreigner won't let me enter the factory!"
"Once we get into the factory, we can do anything we want based on our relationship with the fake foreigners. We might even be able to become a cadre!"
