The villagers in this era were very simple. As soon as they heard that pork was being distributed in the ancestral hall, people from the entire surrounding village came running over.
"Qi Bo, hurry up and share the pork in the ancestral hall!"
"Sixth Aunt, grab the basket and share the pork in the ancestral hall!"
"It's not a holiday today, so why share the pork?"
"Who knows! There is pork in charge of it!"
After a while, the whole ancestral hall was crowded with people. Everyone was carrying baskets and bamboo baskets, supporting the old and the young, stretching their necks to wait for the pork.
Shi Zhijian stood in the center of the ancestral hall, stepping on three big fat pigs, looking majestic.
Ding Yongqiang was on the sidelines and asked everyone to line up and maintain order.
When he saw that the crowd was almost there, Shi Zhijian clasped his fists, cleared his throat and started talking: "Dear fellow villagers, I am the owner of Yuen Long Instant Noodles Factory. My surname is Shi. You can call me Boss Shi!"
"We don't care what kind of boss you are, whether you can separate the pork or not?"
"Everyone, please be patient. Before you divide the pork, please listen to what I have to say!"
Immediately afterwards, Shi Zhijian explained the situation in the factory, and then said that the factory is now recruiting people, and the salary is monthly, including food and accommodation, and the price is at least 300 yuan per month!
At this time, Hong Kong was still very poor, especially Yuen Long. Many young people liked to go out of Yuen Long to work. The most common ones were to join the Zitou Society, work as porters at the docks, and some to work in factories in Kowloon and Hong Kong Island.
Work as a soda maker, flower sculptor, clothing maker, and toy maker.
Some of the salaries of these jobs are paid daily, some are paid monthly, some are paid less daily and more are paid monthly, but most people in Hong Kong like daily salary, especially young people who have money to live a day and never save money.
The salary level currently offered by Shi Zhijian is similar to the monthly salary in many factories, but it is not very attractive to active young people.
"Boss Shi, although we are poor in Yuen Long, the young people here are the most powerful. Many factories like to come to us to recruit workers! As for the wage price you gave, it is too low and we cannot accept it.
!" The one who spoke was an old man who looked very cool.
Shi Zhijian had already inquired and found out that the old man was the village chief of Wei Village, who was equivalent to the "talker" of Wei Village and had great energy.
Immediately, Shi Zhijian invited the village chief to come and have a few words.
Soon, the conversation will be over.
The village chief turned his head, his attitude immediately changed.
"Listen, villagers, after I talked with Boss Shi just now, I feel that he is an honest and reliable person! He assured me that the three hundred yuan is only the initial salary. According to him, after three months, everyone will
The salary will become 350 yuan, and after one year the salary will reach 500 yuan! If you can work for five years, the factory will directly sign a long-term contract with a guaranteed minimum salary of 1,000 yuan!"
As soon as the village chief said these words, it immediately caused a commotion.
"Wow, is it true? Can you get so much?"
One thousand yuan is not a small amount of money in this era, and even many white-collar workers cannot get this much money.
Ding Yongqiang was also startled, looked at Shi Zhijian and whispered: "Ajian, are you bragging again?"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "You can't kill anyone by bragging! Besides, very few people can do it for five years, especially young people!"
Ding Yongqiang rolled his eyes, feeling that A Jian seemed to have become worse, but he seemed much stronger than before.
"If you don't believe him, don't you believe me?" The village chief said, patting his chest, "Boss Shi's factory is opening in our Yuen Long, which is helping the welfare of our Yuen Long people. Everyone must give strong support!"
"The village chief is right! Instead of working somewhere, it's better to stay here and earn at least three hundred a month!"
"Yes, we trust the village chief! The village chief is well-informed and can't be wrong!"
With the authority and trust of the village chief, these villagers quickly accepted the conditions proposed by Shi Zhijian and were willing to work in the instant noodle factory.
After settling this matter, the village chief smiled knowingly at Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian received it, turned to Ding Yongqiang and said: "Kill two pigs and divide the pork!"
"Where's the other one?"
"Send them all to the village chief's house!"
…
Although Shi Zhijian had expected it, he still did not expect that Yuen Long's "labor force" would be so abundant.
It only took half a day to recruit more than 700 people. According to this momentum, they can all be recruited in one day.
However, compared to ordinary skilled workers in the factory, Shi Zhijian has two departments that have more headaches: the transportation team and the security team.
In contrast, although these young people in Yuen Long are powerful, they are not suitable.
The transportation team needs to be able to drive, know how to load and unload goods, and most importantly, they need to have good relationships with major stores to provide one-stop supply and distribution.
Not to mention the security team. In addition to being physically strong, they also need to be good at skills. At least they need to learn kung fu by eating overnight porridge.
It's the 1960s in Hong Kong, and dragons and snakes are mixed. If you want to open a factory in a place like this and escort goods, it's impossible without a strong security team. You might be set on fire every three days.
, robbed on the way.
In any case, the recruitment was almost done, and Shi Zhijian finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the time, it was already approaching noon.
Shi Zhijian asked Ding Yongqiang to sit in the surrounding village and register the villagers' information, while he picked up three kilograms of pork, hailed a rickshaw on the roadside, and hurried back to his home in Shek Kip Mei.
The three kilograms of pork were all shank meat. When Shi Zhijian divided the pork, he asked Shaqiang to help him stay.
The elder sister Shi Yufeng worked very hard in the plastic flower factory and was reluctant to eat good food. Bao'er was also getting older, so Shi Zhijian had no choice but to seize the opportunity to get some good things for them to replenish their health.
Shek Kip Mei is much the same as before, still "dirty, messy and poor".
A group of children were playing horseback riding on bamboo poles, and a large group of people were still looting the public kitchen and public toilets in the corridor. From a distance, they could see the black smoke from the kitchen and smell the pungent smell of urine in the toilets.
A woman was sitting on a pony at the door, nursing her baby. When she saw Shi Zhijian, she did not shy away from it. Instead, she proudly flashed her round, snow-white hair at Shi Zhijian.
Four shirtless men were playing mahjong, with cheap cigarette butts scattered on the ground. When they saw Shi Zhijian, they stood up and said hello: "Ajian, you're back!"
"Ajian, you are getting more and more handsome!"
"Ajian, wherever I go to make a fortune these days, I never see you!"
Shi Zhijian casually said a few words to them. These people were flattering and flattering, making Shi Zhijian very uncomfortable.
The further he walked home, the more people he met, and the more wrong they looked at him.
Now that Shi Zhijian is well-known, he has a very close relationship with the third young master of the Xu Group. He is looking to achieve great success. These poor people usually like to flatter others and suppress others. Of course, they must try their best to curry favor with Shi Zhijian who wants to be prosperous.
Shi Zhijian is not used to this kind of scene, and he especially doesn't like these neighbors who change their ways when the wind blows. When something happened to his family, everyone was a coward, but now they want to follow the dragon and the phoenix. Nothing in this world is so easy.
"Looks like we need to find a place to move quickly!" Shi Zhijian thought.
After finally getting rid of these so-called uncles, fathers and mothers, Shi Zhijian came to the door of his house. Before he entered the door, he heard the sound of Shi Yufeng slapping his chest from inside the house: "This matter is settled, I will definitely help to the end."
!”
When Shi Zhijian heard this, he knew that the old lady was making a promise, and he didn't know whether the promise was big or not, and whether he could handle it.
Unable to care much, Shi Zhijian hurriedly rushed into the room with the pork in hand. Before he could stand firm, he was startled by the situation in the room.
The place where he originally lived was very cramped, but now it was filled with all kinds of things, such as canned biscuits, eggs and fruits, and chickens, ducks and fish hanging on the wall, so that Shi Zhijian almost didn't even have a place to put his feet.
Looking at the bed in the room, there are three people sitting on it. One is the elder sister Shi Yufeng, and the other two are a pair of middle-aged men and women dressed in extraordinary clothes. The man is smoking a cigarette and has a shrewd look on his face. The woman is holding Shi Yufeng's hand.
, with a grateful look on his face.
Seeing Shi Zhijian suddenly barging in, the three of them were stunned for a moment. Shi Yufeng immediately said happily: "Look, it means Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived! My younger brother is back!"
