A month later, the second batch of piglets born at Xiang Wanwan's house.
This time, she gave birth to ten more piglets, and her pig farm finally began to take shape.
Since the pig farm has been completed, Xiang Wanwan and Wang Sao's pigs have all been moved to the pig farm, and the rabbits are all being raised in the rabbit hutch.
Now, Wang's wife spends almost every day at the pig farm, and even sleeps there with her two children at night.
Xiang Wanwan was worried about Wang Sao's health, and also because the two children had to go to school and wouldn't get enough rest, so she decided to hire someone.
She needs to find an honest and reliable person to look after the pig farm.
As soon as the news of recruiting people for the pig farm spread, many people came to apply, and a lot of people stood in Xiang Wanwan's yard.
Since the island's military service is predominantly male, most of the applicants are women.
"Comrade Xiang, we heard you're looking for someone to look after your pig farm. What are the requirements?"
"What do you care about the conditions? Do you think the leader's wife would mistreat you? I can do it, I'll take care of it!"
"Me too!"
In fact, these women didn't have much entertainment on a daily basis. In the past, apart from eating, drinking, and taking care of their families, they had plenty of free time.
Although farming has become an additional activity, it doesn't require going to the fields every day.
Moreover, now that there is a market, people can buy things. Even if a person doesn't farm, as long as he has money, he can buy grain from other farmers.
That's why everyone is so enthusiastic about pig farming.
Xiang Wanwan reassured everyone, "Everyone, calm down and don't rush."
“I do need to find someone to help look after the pig farm, but for now I only need one person.”
"As for the terms, I'll pay him 20 yuan a month, plus 10 jin of pork at the end of the year."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
"What? Twenty yuan!"
“My husband only earns thirty a month for guard duty. The commander’s wife is too generous. It’s almost as much as her husband’s salary.”
"That's twenty yuan a month, that's two hundred and forty yuan a year. Wow, in just a few years I can save up over a thousand yuan!"
"This is fantastic news! I have to fight for it no matter what!"
Everyone chimed in with their own words, their eyes filled with determination to get the job.
Xiang Wanwan stopped everyone and continued, "However, the job is not easy. You need to watch the pig farm 24 hours a day and can't let anyone in. But there are rooms in the pig farm for people to rest in. You can sleep there at night and get four days off a month."
"And then I also have to help clean the pig farm every day."
"It's only right! With such a high salary, I'd feel guilty if I didn't do something."
"That's right, and you get to rest every month."
No one felt that Xiang Wanwan's conditions were too harsh.
After all, it's really hard to find a job and earn some money every month on the island.
"Madam Chief, we can accept this, but what are the conditions for finding this person?"
"Yeah, there are so many of us, but we only need one person. So who should we choose?"
Xiang Wanwan smiled faintly, a slight curve to her lips.
"Ladies, please be patient. Let me explain the conditions."
"First, you must be in good health. Don't be too thin or weak, otherwise your body won't be able to handle it."
"Secondly, we don't want men. The pig farm is run by a few women, and two of them are single. So we're afraid of causing trouble by hiring men."
"Third, we need honest and upright people, not those who are cunning and deceitful."
"Ladies, these are our conditions. If you think you meet the requirements, come forward and draw lots. The person who draws the lot can stay and work."
