Chapter 61: Can our brigade also set up a factory?
Early in the morning, before going to work, all the people in the brigade gathered at the threshing ground.
After a few days, Shen Yuanxing finally completed the procedures for the brigade to set up a factory. After discussing it with the old secretary, they both felt that the sooner the factory was built, the better, so they gathered everyone together early in the morning.
After hearing Shen Yuanxing's words, the crowd suddenly exploded.
"What? Build a factory? Can our brigade build a factory?"
“Why not? Didn’t you hear what the captain said? It was Shen Anan who contributed technology to the village and brought back orders from the furniture factory!”
"Yeah, how did Wang Sufen and her husband raise their daughter? Why did they make the Shen family's ancestral graves smoke?"
"You treat my daughter like a cow all day long, and it's never your turn to have anyone smoke a cigarette."
"Hey, what you said..."
Not only the villagers, but also the educated youth were so excited that they were at a loss.
Since I followed the villagers to work in the fields, all my great ideals of building the countryside have been dispersed by the heavy work.
These young masters and young ladies in the city have been hiding in their beds crying these days.
I thought I would just have to concentrate on farm work before returning to the city.
I didn’t expect that the Wanyang Brigade is going to set up a factory now!
Even though it's just a brick factory, it can't be all physical work. If they can find a job there, it would be better than working in the fields.
Moreover, the brick factory business of this brigade has reached the county. If they enter the factory, they may have the opportunity to go to the county or even the province. Thinking of this, everyone stared at Shen Yuanxing even more eagerly.
Duan Hongzhe clenched his hands, feeling the friction of the calluses in his palms, and secretly made up his mind that he must go to the brick factory this time!
With his abilities, as long as he seizes this opportunity, he will definitely be able to gain a certain say in the factory. Not only will he no longer have to do physical work, he may even have the opportunity to return to the city.
Zhong Qing came over excitedly: "Hongzhe, this opportunity is too rare, we must find a way to get into the factory!"
Duan Hongzhe echoed with a smile, but when he turned around, a dark light flashed in his eyes.
After them, several more batches of educated youth came to Wanyang Brigade, and now there are a total of more than thirty people in the educated youth site.
Normally it's nothing, but if these people want to fight with him, then don't blame him for being ruthless...
However, when it comes to setting up a factory, there are those who support it and there are bound to be those who oppose it.
Shen Ligen was the first to jump out, "Then the team took people to set up a factory, what about the work in the fields? If the harvest is not good, we won't even have rice soup to drink!"
"Besides, this brick factory sounds good, but it's still uncertain whether it will make money! If it doesn't make money, will the workers in the factory be left to starve?"
“She, Shen Anan, encouraged the brigade to set up a factory. Maybe she had no good intentions and wanted everyone to starve to death together!”
“Unless the team guarantees everyone, regardless of whether they make money or not, all workers who go to the brick factory will be penalized!”
Shen Ligen's mind was working quickly. His son Youqing was lazy and could not even earn half of the work points every day. If the team could make the workers in the brick factory get full work points, even if his son was slacking off in the factory, the family's income would double!
As for whether Youqing from their family could enter the brick factory, Shen Ligen was quite confident. After all, he was also Shen Yuanxing's elder. Isn't it just asking him to arrange someone? How dare he disobey?
"Bah, you idiot, what are you daydreaming about! How dare you say such a thing!" Wang Sufen pointed at Shen Ligen's nose and started cursing.
Last time, Shen Ligen helped Zhu Mingzhu and her daughter to wrongly accuse Lao Liu, and she hadn’t yet settled accounts with him. She didn’t expect that he would dare to jump out this time.
The brick factory matter was led by her daughter and second son. This idiot jumped out to oppose it, isn't he just making things difficult for her An An?
It's true that the older you get, the worse you become!
Shen Ligen was scolded by Wang Sufen and stared at Shen Laiyou angrily: "Laiyou, you just watch your wife bully your second uncle! If your father sees you treat your elders like this, I'm afraid he will jump out of his grave in anger."
Shen Laiyou pulled Wang Sufen, who was about to refute, aside and said with a dark face: "Shen Ligen, our two families are far apart. You have repeatedly made things difficult for my Shen family. It doesn't matter if you don't recognize this relative. From now on, our two families will be strangers and there is no need to visit each other anymore."
"You, you, are so unfilial, your father..." Shen Ligen didn't expect Shen Laiyou to react like this, and he was embarrassed all of a sudden.
Shen Anan was afraid that Shen Lai would be angry, "What's wrong with my grandpa? If my grandpa knew that our team is getting better and better, he would be happy! Unlike you, you can't spit out anything except sour water in your stomach."
"Okay! Everyone, listen to me!" The old secretary rang the bell in the threshing ground, his face looking a little serious.
"The method of making red bricks was voluntarily contributed by Shen Anan to the village, but she didn't ask for a penny. It was only when our brigade leader insisted that she was willing to accept a batch of red bricks."
"If this happened to you, would you be willing? Brick making is a craft, and every family holds it like a family heirloom, not to mention that they have helped us find a market for it."
"I'm going to say this. No matter whether this brick factory can be established or not, whether it makes money or not, anyone who dares to say a word about the Shen family will be the enemy of our entire brigade."
"These people just don't want everyone to have an easy life, so they should be criticized and sent to reform camps!"
As soon as the old secretary finished speaking, the people who had just followed the noise couldn't help but shrink their necks, and Shen Ligen was sweating all over because of the accusatory eyes of others.
"As for the crops in the fields, you don't have to worry. Our team has already discussed it. We will only recruit ten workers in the first batch. It will not affect production at all."
"If the brick factory does well, we can expand the staff. By then, as long as the village has money, we can hire cows and tractors to help everyone farm. And everyone in the team can also share the money. What do you think?"
"Okay!" The people below responded enthusiastically, and the last bit of worry disappeared.
"Secretary! How do the workers in this brick factory sign up? Can we educated youth go?" Zheng Chenlong blurted out, his face full of anxiety.
Shen Yuanxing took over the conversation: "Among the first ten workers in our brick factory, nine are brick makers and one is a salesperson."
"Only adult males are eligible to be brick-making masters, and there is no gender restriction for salesmen. For the sake of fairness, we will conduct a unified assessment at the brigade headquarters in two days and select the best candidates for admission."
"As for the educated youth in the team, they can also come and participate in the selection when the time comes. We must work hard together to make our brick factory earn a lot of money as soon as possible!" Shen Yuanxing said this with great vigor, and the people below were excited when they heard it.
The entire Wanyang Brigade, regardless of gender, age or status, was extremely excited by the news. Even when they walked into the fields to start working, they could still hear discussions everywhere.
