Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

In addition to the resumption of production at the food collective cooperative, construction of Lin Zhengjun's pig farm and the cooperative's second phase factory building is also proceeding simultaneously!

The first thing is to recruit workers!

The two construction sites started work at the same time, and the number of workers required was not small. One construction site required sixty to seventy people, and a total of more than 100 people were needed.

The Hewan Brigade alone was not enough, so just like the last time when the primary school was built, young and middle-aged members from other brigades were also allowed to sign up to participate in the labor.

We found a few young men to ride their bicycles to the nearby brigade to spread the news, and more than 300 people signed up that morning.

But Lin Zhengjun and Wei Shuangxi did not accept everything, but made some choices.

If you want to be a worker at the construction site of Hewan Brigade, you must first be physically strong and be down-to-earth and capable;

Secondly, you must obey orders and not act recklessly. Otherwise, not only will your efficiency be low, but accidents may also easily occur.

When other brigades build houses, workers basically have no habit of wearing safety helmets.

But when working under Wei Shuangxi, you must wear a safety helmet, otherwise, you will be paid immediately and fired!

Due to the underdeveloped chemical industry, plastics are also in short supply domestically.

Therefore, many safety helmets at that time were made of willow, bramble and rattan.

Although its strength and protective performance cannot be compared with those of later generations, it is still a relatively effective layer of protection that can reduce various casualties.

Wei Shuangxi first selected 120 people based on his understanding of these people's performance when they built the primary school last year.

We also divided the work into groups and selected team leaders.

"We also need some young people who are a little educated and good at dealing with people to purchase various raw materials." Wei Shuangxi said.

Other building materials, such as bricks, tiles and wood, can be purchased in many cooperatives.

But cement mortar and lime have to be purchased from the county building materials company, which requires approval.

These were all purchase orders that Bai Zhiyuan personally approved and obtained from the county construction company. In short, they needed some "operation".

Last year, Wei Shuangxi brought Xiao Wenhua, Wei Hongbing and a few other more mature and bold young men to deal with state-owned enterprises and purchase goods.

But now Xiao Wenhua has returned to the city, and Wei Hongbing is responsible for the production of canned spicy fish, so newcomers are needed to take over this job.

"Zhang Yang from the Linhe Brigade is pretty good, he's quite courageous and lively!" Lin Zhengjun said, "Let him be in charge of purchasing the goods!"

"I think this kid is good!" Wei Shuangxi thought about it and nodded.

In this way, workers for the two construction sites were quickly recruited, and the collective food cooperative also began operations, and the Hewan Brigade once again became busy.

Every day there are cars coming and going, people talking and the place is bustling with activity.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Zhengjun went to the county town.

One was to send Tang Xiaofu's new novel "Little Shoes" to "October", and the other was that he wanted to visit a few friends and say hello to them in their later years.

Lin Zhengjun returned home too late before the Spring Festival. It was the end of the year and he had a lot of things to deal with, so he basically stayed in the village.

During the Spring Festival, Lin Zhengjun certainly wanted to get together with everyone.

However, the current custom for celebrating the New Year in Qingshan Commune and even Huaibian County is that families gather mainly together, with fewer gatherings of friends.

This is different from later generations. During the Spring Festival in later generations, visiting relatives is just a formality, while gatherings with friends and classmates are more important.

He first went to the Construction Bank on North Street to meet Liang Jinkui and have a cup of tea.

I went to the flour mill again and chatted with the factory director Lu Changyuan to get closer to him.

After all, the midnight snacks that the flour mill orders from Lao Gandie every day are enough to maintain the profits needed to operate the restaurant.

Then we went to the "Lao Gan Die" restaurant in front of the flour mill to visit Mr. Bai.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Lin Zhengjun walked into the restaurant and saw Mr. Bai squatting on the ground, pounding garlic in a garlic mortar with a short rolling pin.

Eldest sister Lin Hongmei, along with Feng Xianzhi, Wu Hongdan and Zhao Xiuli, were picking vegetables, washing pork offal and letting the dough rest. They looked full of energy and busy but not chaotic.

Although today is the first day of business, the floor, counter, tables and chairs are all clean. Even the open space in front of the door does not have a piece of garbage or dead leaves.

"Zhengjun, ha, you're here!"

As soon as Mr. Bai saw Lin Zhengjun, he smiled brightly.

"I came to see you, happy new year, and wish you a happy old age!" Lin Zhengjun smiled and pulled out a chair and sat down.

"It's not too late, it's the New Year before the 15th!"

Bai Weiguo mashed the garlic, handed the garlic mortar and rolling pin to Feng Xianzhi, took out a tea can from behind the counter, and made a cup of tea for Lin Zhengjun.

"Try it, it's given to me by my old comrade-in-arms!" Bai Weiguo sat down next to Lin Zhengjun.

"Lu'an Guapian, not bad!" Lin Zhengjun nodded in approval.

"Wow! You can do blind tasting!"

Bai Weiguo smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to know a lot about tea. Did you drink a lot of good tea while filming in Yanjing? Did you try all kinds of good tea?"

"That's about right..." Lin Zhengjun found it funny.

Bai Weiguo also added a filter to the Beijing Film Studio, thinking that the treatment there was very good.

In fact, the crew also eats pickled cabbage with steamed buns and porridge all day long. The four major directors like Xie Tieli sometimes even drink Gaomo.

Tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea are now in short supply across the country. After Lin Zhengjun was reborn, he hadn't had a chance to drink good tea, which he couldn't buy even if he had money.

His knowledge of tea is entirely based on his experience in previous lives.

After drinking tea and chatting for a while, Bai Weiguo said, "Zhengjun, the dividends are now more than 30,000 yuan. How about we divide it today? You are not a problem to me!"

"A profit of four hundred yuan a day! It's really terrible!" Lin Zhengjun felt it was outrageous.

Bai Weiguo said proudly: "Before the New Year, all units had paid bonuses and salaries, and they all had money. I tell you, business was booming!"

"The store is completely full all day long, and we've even put up a plastic awning in front of the store, and added more than a dozen tables."

"Generally speaking, we start receiving customers at 5pm, but we still have customers until 11pm!"

Lin Zhengjun said with a smile: "Mr. Bai, you are so happy and radiant now that you have made money!"

Bai Weiguo smiled and said, "In fact, it's not just about making money. The key is to have something to do, have fun, and be spiritually satisfied!"

"It turns out that staying at home alone is so boring that I feel itchy all over my body!"

"Many of my old colleagues came over for dinner, and when they saw how busy I was, they were all very envious of me!"

Lin Zhengjun laughed and said, "Haha, you are born to be restless!"

Bai Weiguo smiled and said, "By the way, I'm going home to get the money. Let's divide the dividends today!"

"Okay!" Lin Zhengjun agreed readily.

After all, a small shop doesn't need much working capital, so there's not much point in keeping it here.

Lin Zhengjun had to build a pig farm, provide financial support to the Agricultural University's scientific research, and also buy clothing related to "Lush Mountain Love", so there were many places to spend money.
