Reborn in 1987: The Story of an Abandoned Girl

Chapter 90 recruitment news

Today, the li family served a variety of dishes, including local chicken stewed mushrooms, braised fish, pork, braised pork trotters, braised sugar meat, scallion sausage, beer and duck, and a stir-fried lettuce. All eight dishes were served in the largest bowl, a big bowl full of spices and oil. The taste was not bad.

"Wow, haitang, I really can't tell. Your food is quite delicious." Li Rong was sitting at the same table as her, and half of the boys classed themselves as men, and drank a glass of white wine with everyone in an extremely rude manner.

Li Haitang held the bowl in one hand and the chopsticks in the other. He smiled and said, "It's just a few dishes that are barely cooked. If you think it's good, eat more."

"Haitang, this dish of yours tastes really good. Your father's house starts construction on the sixth day of the seventh lunar month. Did you help prepare the food at home?" Asked Li Yuanlin, who was sitting at the same table.

Li Haitang shook his head and said with a smile, "I don't have that much time. I can come over and help you in the first two days. The shops in tan city opened on the eighth day of the lunar new year. I went there on the ninth day of the lunar new year, and then I went to the provincial capital and Yangcheng to do some business. School is just starting on the 16th. I have to go to class. I don't have time to come back."

"Oh, you're a busy man. The schedule is so tight that you can run around at such a young age. You're much better than your peers." When Li Yuanlin heard her son say that she helped him, he naturally had a little more affection for her.

"Uncle yuan lin is joking. Your Li Yongchun is also very good." Li Haitang said modestly.

"Don't be modest. The children in our village are all very good. They are all very lively and much better than those of us who only earn a little dead money." The other middle-aged uncle took advantage of the alcohol to raise his voice.

"This is true. Haitang is very good. Yongchun and yongqing, the far Lin family, are both good children. Rongzi of the erzhu family is also good. When she was a child, she was mischievous and annoying. Now that she grows up, her temper has become very pleasant."

Li rong smiled as he ate, "Uncle Jiangang, boys. No one has ever been naughty. You must have been pretty much the same when you were a child." When he was a child, he was naughty and did bad things. He did not know how many times his father chased after him with a cane, and he was repeatedly smoked and screamed.

He was a little devil in the village, and almost everyone knew that he was chased by Uncle Zhu. Li Haitang found some memories in her mind, especially one thing, and she laughed unkindly on the spot.

"Haitang, what are you laughing at?" Li Rong felt that she was smiling strangely.

Li Haitang cheered up on his own and shouted, "I remember one time when you got into trouble. There were a few boys in the village playing at your house that day. You wanted to trick them when they went to the bathroom. How did you know that Uncle Zhu suddenly came back? He probably broke his stomach and went to the bathroom first, but you threw a big stone into the pit..."

After all, it was time for dinner, and it would affect her appetite.

"Haha..." Everyone else burst into laughter. Even uncle er zhu, who was sitting at the same table drinking, couldn't help but laugh.

Li Rong also remembered that incident. He was so happy that he almost died from his father. His memory was so deep that he never dared to do it again. "Your memory is so good. I was not even ten years old then. You still remember it so clearly. If you don't mention it, I would really forget it."

"The main thing is that it was so funny that it's still fresh in my memory. Uncle Zhu chased after you with vines all over the village. In the end, you ran to the mountain behind uncle lin's house and escaped. When you came back, you didn't go back. You stayed in our house and hid in Li Tao's house until Uncle Zhu's anger subsided. Then you came home and admitted your mistake." Li Haitang was really amused by him. He was a typical bear child when he was a child.

Li Tao touched the back of his head. Why can't he remember something so interesting? He was also naughty when he was young. He fried cow dung, pounded watermelons, dug out beehives and so on. He had never done this before when he threw stones into the mound. Brother Rongzi was indeed the number one little devil in Lee ka tsuen!

All the other boys in their teens looked at Li Rong with adoration. He was really amazing. He was their idol.

Aunt er zhu, who was sitting at the bottom of the table, shook her head and laughed, feeling particularly helpless, "This brat was so naughty as to be indescribable when he was young that he really worried about my hair. At that time, I really wanted to tie him up with a rope so that he wouldn't go out all day to cause trouble."

"Even my father dares to do it. It's no use tying him up, haha." A woman at the table laughed heartily.

Rongzi was really too skinny when he was a child. One year I planted watermelons in the field and grew five big ones. Who knew this little brat would make a few holes in me with all the fine wire before the melon was ripe? When I picked it home and cut it open, it was all rotted into a pot of sauce. I was so angry that I wanted to smoke him." It was Li Rong's second aunt who always told her children not to play with him. She did not learn well from him and was afraid of becoming a gangster in society.

"Haha..." Everyone laughed again. This was the mischievous thing he used to do when he was a child.

Li Rong was so embarrassed that he touched his head awkwardly. At that time, he didn't know what was wrong with him. If he didn't do something bad all day long, he would feel uncomfortable. He spent every day at home trying to trick people. It was so childish to think about it now.

Fortunately, these naughty boys have grown up and their temperaments have changed. They will soon be able to earn money to support their family. They will be the pillar of the family, and we old people will have to relax." Li Yuanlin was in high spirits after a few drinks.

"It's not easy now. They haven't married yet. They can only relax when they do. Yuanlin, your three children are still young. Even Yongchun is only 17 years old this year. You have to work hard for another ten years. It's too early to start enjoying your happiness." Uncle Zhu smiled at him.

That's true. We can no longer stay at home and guard this acre of land. We can't earn much from farming, so we have to go out for a walk. Jianguo, you've seen a lot more outside than us this year. What's the good work outside? It doesn't matter if we work a little harder. We have a lot of brute force to work with. As long as we can earn money, we can take our buddies out and see for ourselves." Li Yuanlin saw that he had earned so much money to build a house in a year, so he was not envious. Besides, when his son mentioned that it was much easier to make money outside, he had an idea in his mind.

Li Jianguo took the bottle and poured a glass of wine for everyone. He smiled and said, "To be honest, I also think it's better for everyone to go out and look for work. We really can't make much money at home. Although it's hard work outside, we have to earn a lot of money. When the house is finished, I'll go to tan city and help you find it. Call me when you have something suitable."

"Okay, thanks. Have a drink." The men raised their glasses and touched him.

Li Haitang, who had finished eating, thought of the recruitment notice he read in the newspaper a few days ago and pulled Li Jianguo's sleeve. "Dad, did you notice that on the way back to shao county in tan city, there is a large area of land now surrounded by a wall?"

Li Jianguo frowned and nodded, "I have an impression. It seems that there are signs to build a cement plant."

That's right. There's going to be a big cement plant, a state-owned enterprise, that produces and operates cement and commercial clinkers. The tan city government attached great importance to this factory and mine. I also saw a special article on this factory in the newspaper. There was also a recruitment notice at the bottom of that article. This cement plant needs a lot of construction workers, carpenters, porters, cafeteria helpers and so on to put into production within two years. The salary is not bad. The scattered workers'money is calculated by the day. The cafeteria helpers are two and five yuan a day. The others are three yuan a day. In this year, the wages of all walks of life have increased, and the wages of this cement factory are very good.

The men who were drinking all stopped, and their eyes lit up when they heard the news.

Seeing that everyone was listening with their ears pointed, Li Jianguo asked, "When did you see that article?"

Li Haitang recalled and told them, "Just a few days ago, it seemed to be the tan city daily on december 23rd, the most positive and conspicuous article. The factory was in a hurry to start construction, and it should start on the fifteenth day of the first month. With the participation of the government in such a large factory and mine, there would naturally be no arrears of wages. Uncles, would you like to try it?"

"Yes, of course I have to go for such a high salary. But, haitang, will this large state-owned enterprise recruit people from our rural household register?" Li Yuanlin was a little worried about this.

"Of course, most of the registered residents in cities and towns have formal jobs. The chances of abandoning their old jobs to develop new factories are relatively low. And the cement plant is so big that it's estimated that thousands of people will be recruited to build a house in the early stages and contract workers will be needed after it is completed. It's impossible that all these positions are occupied by people with urban hukou." Over the years, people with rural household registration came into the city in large numbers to earn a living, and all walks of life were infiltrated. The rapid development of the city could not be separated from them. The policy changed again and again, and no longer restricted the rural people to work in the city.

When she said that, everyone was excited and happy.

The dark-skinned li jiangang was originally a construction worker. He had been building houses with the construction team all year round. It would be great if he could work in a stable place. He asked excitedly, "Haitang, do you know what the conditions are for the cement factory to recruit long-term workers?"

"It looks like we're going to a unified hospital for a physical examination. Just pass it."

He was puzzled, "Physical examination? What's that?"

Li Haitang explained carefully, "A physical examination, as the name implies, is a physical examination that measures height and weight, as well as blood pressure, heart rate, lung, liver, spleen, kidney, etc., to check whether the body has any major diseases or genetic diseases. The process of the physical examination is very simple, just like the initial examination you usually do when you go to the hospital to see a doctor."

"Oh, so are we going to find a hospital or a regular place to have a physical examination? When are you going to apply? Where is the location?" Li Jiangang asked a few questions at once.

Li Haitang frowned and said apologetically, "Uncle, I don't remember the details very clearly. I'll call my classmate at Yuanhua Uncle's house later and ask her to read the newspaper for you."

Haitang, don't bother your classmates. I'll ask li wenjian later. He works at the post office. He has a newspaper from the tan city daily. We'll read it ourselves."

Li Haitang smiled, "Yes, there must be some from brother wen jian. It's better to find him. I remember it was the newspaper from the 23rd, and I think I might have misremembered it. You can ask me more."

"Sure."

It would be great if we could work in this cement factory. Even if we could only do it for two years, we could earn more money than our brick factory. The wages of the brick factory have risen a little this year. It's only 60 yuan a month. It's tiring to roll around in the mud every day." Uncle Li Tao, Li Jianhua, has a plan in mind. No matter how hard the cement factory is, it's probably not as hard as the brick factory. You can earn double your salary in a month. No fool will go.

The three tables below were filled with women and children as they listened to their conversation. Li Haitang's food was spicy and strong enough to satisfy their appetites. Not long after, the entire table was filled with dishes, leaving only the shredded chili in the bowl with some soup.
