Chapter 68 Continue to recruit people

 The two of them went straight to the train station.

There is an open space next to the station. I don’t know when it started. People looking for jobs and recruiting people gather here.

 “Boss, do you need anyone? Moving goods or coolies are all fine.”

 “Boss, do you want to build a wall?”

“Boss, I can clean the house, take care of the house, or cook.”

As soon as Ning Xi and Lu Nan walked into this place, many people came up to ask.

"The canning workshop is recruiting people. The salary is 30 yuan a month. They need to be quick and agile." Ning Xi glanced at the people around her and shouted. She didn't recruit workers according to the wages paid to the villagers because the villagers People are kind to the Lu family, and giving them more wages will make everyone work harder. It can also be regarded as a substitute for Lu Nan to help Lu Zhenhai repay everyone's kindness for pooling money to help him go to college.

If you offer a higher salary of 45 outside, you can recruit a lot of workers, but it will also disrupt the market and cause dissatisfaction and resentment from other bosses.

In fact, 30 is already a high salary. As soon as Ning Xi roared, almost everyone who came to look for a job gathered around her. Some people who came to recruit workers saw Ning Xi paying 30 as soon as she opened her mouth, and they all looked at her with disapproval. Too friendly a look.

 “When will the boss start work?”

 “Boss, do you think I can succeed?”

“Boss, I’m very quick at work and can do any job.”

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me first." Ning Xi shouted and waited for everyone to quiet down. "I make snacks here. When you work here, you must follow the production steps I gave you step by step, because it's When it comes to cooking and eating, my hygiene requirements here are very strict. First, you are not allowed to smoke in the production room. Second, you must wash your hands when entering the production room. Third, you must change into clean clothes every day. Third, you must take a shower and wash your hair every day. Wear a hat, mask, and gloves when you go to work. I will prepare a hat and a mask for you.”

“In addition to these three rules, I have many rules that need to be followed here. I will tell you the specific rules one by one after starting work. If you can meet these three rules, you can come to sign up with me.”

 “I’m telling you! I’ll give you the salary of 30 yuan as soon as you ask for it.”

“I thought there was such a good thing, but not everyone can abide by these three rules.”

After hearing Ning Xi’s recruitment conditions, other recruiters who had been a little dissatisfied with Ning Xi suddenly felt better. With so many harsh conditions, not many people were willing to do it for 30 yuan.

Just as they thought, many of them left before Ning Xi finished speaking, muttering dissatisfied.

“You have to wash your hands when you enter, take a shower and wash your hair every day, otherwise you won’t rub your skin until it becomes bald.”

 “I’m not allowed to smoke. I can’t live without it.”

 “I change my clothes every day, but there are so many clothes to change.”

Ning Xi glanced at the crowd who had not left yet, "Is there anyone else who wants to leave? If you don't want to leave, I need to take your pulse. I'm here to make food. People who are in poor health or have any infectious diseases don't want to leave."

 “I still need to check my pulse, why are there so many cutscenes in recruiting workers?”

“That’s right, I think this is not recruiting workers, but looking for trouble.”

 Some more people left muttering.

“I’ll go first.” A man in his thirties rolled up his sleeves and walked up to Ning Xi. “Boss, I’m in good health and don’t have any illnesses.”

Ning Xi put her hand on the man's wrist and simply checked his pulse. When she smelled the smell of cigarette smoke on the man's body, she pulled back and asked, "Brother, do you want to smoke?"

The man immediately vowed, "I will not smoke in the production room as required."

"As long as you stop smoking in the production room, what do you call me brother, how old I am, and where I live." Ning Xi took out a pen and paper and prepared to write down the other party's information.

 “I’ll register.” Lu Nan took the paper and pen.

"Zhang Dakui, 32 years old, from Tangxi Village." Zhou Dakui immediately introduced himself without any shyness. He was named "Zhang Dakui...". The person who named him was probably not a fan of Water Margin!

Zhang Dakui didn't think there was anything wrong with his name at all, and nodded seriously, "Yeah! Zhang Dakui."

Lu Nan registered Zhang Dakui’s information and added, “Except in the delivery room, you are not allowed to smoke in front of my wife. She is pregnant and cannot smell the smell of smoke.”

 Zhang Dakui nodded again, "Remember."

Someone here came up to check Ning Xi’s pulse and made sure that there was nothing wrong with him. Ning Xi asked him to register with Lu Nan.

After some questioning, Ning Xi only recruited thirty-seven workers. There were still people looking around, but they were unwilling to come because Ning Xi had too many rules.

  Thirty or so people are fine, so let’s do this for now!

Ning Xi made an appointment with them to start work, and took seven people who knew how to build walls and make stoves to buy fifteen large iron pots and returned to the rental house to build stoves.

“The stove must be built before tomorrow morning. This part of the labor will be paid according to the market price and will be paid immediately after the work is completed.”

 At first, everyone was not happy when they heard that they would have to stay up late tonight. Once they heard that additional wages would be calculated, everyone immediately smiled and promised that they would be able to finish it today.

I brought some vegetables when I came here in the afternoon. In the evening, workers were building a stove in the backyard. Ning Xi kneaded the dough to make noodles in the kitchen, and threw in some vegetables and fried tomatoes.

 After a while, a large basin of hot and fragrant shaved noodles was brought to the backyard.

 “What does it smell like? It’s so fragrant.”

“Someone made delicious food! It’s getting dark, and my stomach is growling.”

“How about we talk to the boss and go out to eat first.”

"I think it's okay. The boss only said it would be finished today, and he didn't say he wouldn't let everyone eat."

"It's time to eat." The workers in the backyard were discussing how to go out and finish dinner when they saw Ning Xi walking in with a big basin, followed by Lu Nan with a basin on his lap, with bowls and chopsticks in it.

 A group of people hurried forward to help get things.

“Eat first, and then cook after you finish eating.” Ning Xi greeted and picked up the bowls and chopsticks to help everyone choose noodles.

“Boss, let’s do it ourselves.” Everyone had the nerve to ask Ning Xi to help cook the noodles and pick them into bowls. They quickly picked up the bowls and chopsticks to pick out the noodles themselves.

Ning Xi handed the noodle bowl to Lu Nan and picked another bowl of noodles for herself. Everyone realized that after picking the noodles, they took the bowls and found a place to squat down to eat, leaving the stone table to Ning Xi and Lu Nan.

“It’s delicious. I have never eaten such delicious noodles.” The worker ate the noodles in big mouthfuls and said vaguely.

This noodle is completely different from what you usually eat. It exudes a rich wheat aroma.

I don’t know how the noodles were cooked, but the aroma was very tempting. Not only did they eat all the noodles in the bowl, but they also drank all the noodle soup. They saw that there were still some noodles left in the basin, and Ning Xi He and Lu Nan had already put down their bowls and chopsticks, and several people came forward to portion out all the noodles in the bowls. Those who didn't get the noodles also drank the noodle soup.

 After everyone finished eating the noodles and put away their bowls and chopsticks, Ning Xi asked Zhang Dakui, "When will Brother Zhang finish the work?"

 Zhang Dakui quickly replied, "It will take about an hour."

“Sure, you guys get busy first.” Ning Xi picked up the basin and left with Lu Nan.

  After going to the kitchen to wash the dishes, the two of them returned to the house to give Lu Nan an acupuncture.
