Chapter 367 I want to stay

After Taifeng Motorcycle Factory, several other companies have launched their own agricultural tricycles.

These agricultural tricycles have one thing in common, that is, the two core components of the engine and the rear axle assembly are purchased finished products.

Moreover, the first batch of agricultural tricycles launched by these manufacturers are not many in number.

This is mainly because the output of the engine and rear axle assembly has not been improved.

Before that, the engine and rear axle assembly were only supplied to one company, Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory, but now it takes time to increase production capacity to supply multiple companies.

And Li Weidong can be regarded as vertical and horizontal, breaking the local protectionism.

Of course, the competition between agricultural vehicles and tractors will continue, and even in the future, there will be fierce competition among agricultural vehicle manufacturers.

Survival of the fittest and survival of the fittest are inevitable in a market economy.

Just when Li Weidong was busy with the engine production license, the Poverty Alleviation Office also started to act.

Li Weidong told the Poverty Alleviation Office of the general requirements for recruitment, such as being over 16 years old, having healthy limbs, normal intelligence, having no problems with vision and hearing, not being illiterate, and having to know 26 English letters, etc. Then let the Poverty Alleviation Office recruit people according to this standard.

In the early 1990s, there were a large number of surplus laborers in rural areas. It was not difficult to find a strong laborer with healthy limbs, neither deaf, blind, dumb nor stupid. The only troublesome thing was the level of education.

In many impoverished mountainous areas, there are illiterate people who have never gone to school, and many have dropped out before even finishing primary school. The kind of people who drop out of school in the second and third grades of primary school, they really don't know a lot of characters, and they are considered semi-literate.

As for the 26 English letters, it does not stumped the rural youth. Although they have not learned English, they have learned Chinese Pinyin. Although they can't read ABC in English, they can read ah, oh, uh in Chinese Pinyin.

So in the eyes of these rural youths, the 26 English letters are ah, boo, pee, pee...

Li Erniu is such a rural youth. He is just 16 years old this year. He has been farming at home since he dropped out of the third grade of primary school.

It is said to be farming, but in fact there is not much land, because the village where Li Erniu lives is in the deep mountains, and there is not much flat land at all, not even a few fruit trees.

Therefore, Li Erniu's main job is actually herding sheep.

On this day, the brigade secretary of the village broadcasted over the loudspeaker, saying that there are factories in the city recruiting workers. Anyone over the age of 16 can sign up. Once they are officially admitted, they can earn 150 yuan a month!

For Li Erniu, 150 yuan is an astronomical figure, and he has never seen so much money in his life.

But Li Erniu didn't dare to sign up, because the farthest place he has ever been in his life is a big village with four or five hundred households at the foot of the mountain. He has never even been to the town, let alone the city. .

There are many people like Li Erniu in the village. Their ancestors have lived in the mountains for generations. They make a living by farming and herding sheep, and have never had the opportunity to leave the mountains in their lifetime.

It is also because of this kind of blockade that there are very few people in the village who sign up. It is not that everyone does not want to go out, but they are afraid to go out!

Three days later, the town's poverty alleviation cadres came and went door-to-door to work, repeating the words that it is good to be a worker and make a lot of money, and wanted the young people in the village to sign up as workers.

Li Erniu also doesn't know whether it is good to be a worker or not, and how much money he can make a lot of money. However, when he learned from the poverty alleviation cadres that if he went to work as a worker, he could buy several piglets with the money he made a year, so he signed up without hesitation.

For Li Erniu, a sheep herder, his biggest dream in life is to raise a few piglets.

Because in their poverty-stricken mountainous area, being able to raise a pig at home is similar to driving a Mercedes-Benz BMW now. It is just one word: brand!

A few days later, Li Erniu and other young people who signed up in the village went down the mountain in a mule cart, then got on a tractor and came to the town.

This is the first time Li Erniu rides a tractor in his life!

The town found a big truck and sent everyone to the electrical factory.

This is also the first time Li Erniu rides a car in his life! Although it's just the cargo bed of the truck.

For Li Erniu, everything here is fresh. There are several-story buildings, smooth asphalt roads, and cars. These are things that Li Erniu has never seen in his life.

Li Erniu even thinks that even if he can't be admitted, he can see these new things, he can take a car once, and he can play for a lifetime after returning to the village!

After coming to the electrical factory, Li Erniu was taken to the room for a physical examination. This was also the first time Li Erniu participated in the physical examination in his life.

Since then, Li Erniu will know that the so-called physical examination is a person in a white coat who asks you to clench your fists, jump a few times in place, and walk two steps in a circle.

Followed by the interview, the interviewer gave Li Erniu two pieces of paper and asked Li Erniu to read the words on it.

Li Erniu, who was only in the third grade of elementary school, was a little cowardly. Then he glanced at the ten characters in the first line and realized that he knew eight of them, which made Li Erniu a lot more settled.

It's noon on the sun, sweat and weeds go down to the soil. Li Erniu read out the eight characters he knew.

There are many characters in the back, which Li Erniu doesn't know, but Li Erniu knows the Chinese pinyin at the end, and he reads it out loud.

In this way, Li Erniu passed the interview in confusion.

Li Erniu didn't know that the reason why he passed the interview was because the electrical appliance factory lowered the standard. The level of Wei Hua of this batch of workers is really too low!

Then, Li Erniu was taken to the dormitory, and it turned out to be a building! Li Erniu never thought that he would be able to live in a building in his lifetime!

There are eight people in the dormitory, and one of them is an old employee of the electrical factory and their dormitory chief.

After the head of the house explained a few words, he took them to collect daily necessities, including washbasins, towels, thermos, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and soap.

What surprised Li Erniu even more was that the factory even distributed two sets of clothes!

This is the second time Li Erniu wears new clothes in his life!

After receiving the new clothes, the head of the house took everyone to take a shower. The faucet that can spray hot water with one twist made Li Erniu feel that he could go back and blow it for a lifetime!

Then the head of the house took everyone to the cafeteria for dinner. Only then did Li Erniu know that as a worker in the factory, he could eat three meals a day!

When he was in the village, Li Erniu only ate two meals a day, not only Li Erniu but others too.

What surprised Li Erniu even more was that the food here turned out to be white rice and white flour buns!

When he was in the village, all Li Erniu ate were cornmeal or sweet potato noodles, and rice was basically invisible. If there was flour, he would be reluctant to steam steamed buns, so he had to save them to make cabbage dumplings for the holidays.

In addition to white rice and white flour steamed buns, there are even vegetables to eat, stewed vermicelli with cabbage and tofu, and there are a few pieces of fat and fat in it! In addition to this, there is a boiled egg per person.

A mouthful of fat was stuffed into his mouth, and the greasy taste melted in Li Erniu's mouth, giving Li Erniu a new belief:

Everything here is so beautiful, I must stay here!

...

Li Weidong had already discovered that most of the young people sent by the Poverty Alleviation Office were malnourished.

Because the work intensity of the electrical appliance factory is very high, there is no good body to support it, so Li Weidong informed the canteen to add nutrition to these new workers. There is no limit to the staple food. One more egg a day.

We must let these malnourished young people eat their bodies so that they can work hard in the future!
