Chapter 619 Labor Exercise

   After eating at Xu's house, everyone chatted for a while. After seven o'clock, those who were supposed to be on duty in the processing factory went on duty, and those who were supposed to go home also went home.

  The next day Xu Shiyan went back to work as usual, and Su Anying brought people to make goods in the processing factory.

  In addition to the relatives of each family, the processing factory also recruited a lot of people this year.

  Recruiting people is actually very simple nowadays. Qilu and other places have a lot of people going to the Northeast due to various reasons.

  Like the workers on the farm, most of the few people who came to the farm came from there.

   These people made money in the Northeast, and some went back and talked about their wives, so they brought their wives with them.

  Some wrote letters to introduce their brothers and relatives.

  The fertilizer factory next door to the processing factory, the town has arranged for Yang Junxian to be the secretary and director of the factory.

  In addition, a cashier, an accountant, and a custodian were arranged for them, and these are considered to have formal staffing.

  Other workers, a small part were recruited from the villages under Donggang.

  The kind of family that has more brothers but less land and clubs can earn more money by working than farming.

  Most of them are foreigners recruited.

  These people from other places are all strong and capable, and they don’t grow land or ginseng at home, and they don’t need to ask for leave to go back to work during the busy farming season.

  There are canteens and dormitories in the factory. Singles can take care of food and housing, and those with families can help rent a house and arrange accommodation.

  The conditions are much better than their hometown, so it is easy to recruit workers.

  The processing factory can be regarded as having a good time with the neighbors. Those who married their wives, some even brought their wives.

  These little daughters-in-law are old and capable, and they can't stay idle at all, so they can just work in the processing factory.

  The manpower is sufficient, and the processing plant has added several ginseng brushing machines this year.

  In addition to the clubs of various companies, Su Anying wandered around the ginseng market all day long, buying fresh ginseng.

  Sometimes, they will go to other towns, even Jingyu, Changbai, Antu and other places to collect fresh ginseng and process it.

  The goods are received and processed here, and the goods are sent to the south immediately after drying.

  This year, the orders from southern customers are not small, so the processing factory is also working overtime, and they are very busy.

  Donggang Primary School, I told Xu Shiyan before, asking Xu Shiyan to help find a southern customer and sell the goods directly.

  Xu Shiyan remembered this incident. Just during the Ginseng Festival, Su Anying chatted well with a Hong Kong businessman and signed a large order with him.

  The other party entrusted Su Anying to purchase and process here, and then ship it directly. Su Anying did the math, and the profit was very large.

  So I discussed with Principal Gao and the two sides cooperated.

  The five-hundred-foot ginseng from Donggang Primary School was handed over to the processing factory for processing, and after processing, it was sent to Hong Kong businessmen, and the profits were shared equally by both parties.

  Principal Gao calculated that the profit would be much higher than selling locally.

  If this is the case, not only the teachers will get a share, but the school will also be able to leave funds for the repair of the school building.

  So he readily agreed, and the two parties happily signed the agreement.

   "Well, this Sunday, our classmates will go up the mountain for labor exercise.

  Go home and tell your parents to change into a set of old clothes on Sundays, and those who have water boots are best to wear water boots.

  If you don’t have one, you can also wear work shoes, the main thing is that the upper of the shoe should be higher, and you don’t need to pour soil into the shoes.

  In addition, everyone should bring rice. It is best to bring dry food and pickles. Don’t bring soup and water, because you can’t get it on the mountain. "

  The last class on Saturday morning, the head teacher of the four classes of the sixth grade told the children like this.

   "Do you remember everything? You must remember to tell your family when you get home.

  There is no class this afternoon, so remember to do your homework, and you must complete all your homework.

  You are going to take the graduation exam next year. This is related to whether you can go to junior high school. You must pay attention to it, understand? "

  Nowadays, it is not nine-year compulsory education. There is also an examination for entry from elementary school to junior high school.

  In order to prepare for the junior high school, the school is also very hard-working. The sixth grade teacher is very busy studying all day long.

   What the teacher talks about all day long is homework.

  Donggang Elementary School has a total of 500 feet of sticks. It’s the end of September now, and there will be no more sticks.

  But the teachers usually have to teach and go to work, so they can only catch up on Sunday.

  How many teachers are there in primary school? With five hundred feet of sticks, I can't be busy even if I go there, so I can only ask the students to follow me to work.

  Most of the sixth graders are thirteen or fourteen years old. They are older children. Nowadays, children are not delicate and have to do everything.

  They are the ones who plant the land in spring, shovel the land in summer, and harvest the land in autumn. At least they can pick up sticks, so what’s the point? Must work.

   "Got it, finish your homework this afternoon." The children shouted in unison.

   Just like that, when the school bell rang, the children rushed out of the school with their schoolbags on their backs and ran home.

  Xu Haiyuan gathered Huang Shuqing, Xu Jinping, Yang Haoyu, Xu Jingyi, Xu Jingwen and others. This group of a dozen or so children rushed out of the school, shouting and running home.

   "Grandma, tomorrow we will have a club at school, and the teacher said that we all have to go to the mountains to work.

  Bring me some rice tomorrow morning, preferably dry food or something. "Xu Haiyuan said to Zhou Guilan as soon as he entered the door.

   "Oh, you guys have to go up to the mountain to participate tomorrow?

  Okay, what meal do you want to bring? Do I give you pancakes, steamed buns, or pancake rolls? "

  Zhou Guilan didn't have any opinion on this, even in these years, parents are used to it.

  The only thing the old lady cares about is what to bring for her grandson to go up the mountain?

  The weather is cold at this time, and there is probably no place for hot meals on the mountain. It is probably not easy for children to eat something warm.

   "Otherwise, go to the store across the street and buy you bread, cakes, and canned luncheon meat? Can those things satisfy hunger?"

   "Huh? I remembered, there is your dad's insulated lunch box at home.

  Well, let me bring you rice and meat, it’s also convenient. "

  The old lady suddenly remembered that there was something at home.

  The insulated lunch box is quite big, the outside is made of aluminum, the inner layer is made of plastic, and the insulation layer is sandwiched in the middle.

  The lunch box is divided into two parts, one end can hold hot water, and the other end can hold rice and vegetables.

  Put the rice and vegetables in while they are still hot, fill with freshly boiled hot water, and close the insulated lunch box.

  It will not be cold at noon, and the children can eat some warm meals.

   "Grandma, you can bring whatever you want, I will eat it."

  Xu Haiyuan almost confused his grandma, how would he know what to bring?

  Anyway, he is not picky, he can eat whatever he gives, how can there be so many things?

   "Okay, then the milk will know what to do for you, don't worry, I will keep it for you to eat well."

  Zhou Guilan had already calculated what to bring to her grandson, so she happily went to prepare food.

  This old lady simply regarded her grandson's going to work as a picnic.

  Xu Haiyuan looked at grandma's back and scratched his head, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

   Well, don’t think about it, let’s wash our hands and eat quickly.

  The teacher left a bunch of homework. After finishing the homework in the afternoon, I have to go to the mountain to work tomorrow.

   "Brother, I also want to go up the mountain and play with a stick."

  At the other end, Xu Haiqing leaned over again, looking at Xu Haiyuan eagerly.

   "Go to the other side for me, I am a labor of the school, not our family.

   What's the matter with me taking you there? The teacher can't let it either.

  Don't worry, when you go to elementary school next year, there will be plenty of opportunities for off-campus labor.

   As long as you are lazy, just don't cry and shout that you don't want to go. "Xu Haiyuan was speechless by his younger brother.
