Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1968, Great Recruitment
"Clang~clang~"

"Hiring! Hiring!"

"The Sichuan branch of Tianjin Cement Plant is recruiting workers!"

"Food and housing are included, monthly wages are 4 taels of silver, one day off per week, ten hours of work per year, and bonuses at the end of the year. You can get more as you get older!"

Here in a street in Chengdu, the Sichuan Branch of Tianjin Cement Factory, which has just been established, began to recruit workers with drums and gongs. As soon as the monthly payment of five taels of silver was paid, it immediately attracted a large number of people to come to watch.

"Is it true or false that food and housing are included, and there is still 4 taels of silver a month?"

Some people couldn't believe it on the spot. Sichuan has always been relatively poor because of traffic restrictions, and its development is far behind that of other places in Daming. Most of the people are mainly engaged in farming. For a few silver coins, the times have changed for the better.

To some extent, he still received the benefits of the development of capitalism and colonialism in Ming Dynasty. If it were in the past, he might not even have enough food to work hard on the land, let alone have money left.

The 4 taels of silver a month's monthly money also includes food and housing, which is an unimaginable high income for them.

"Of course it's true!"

"Our Tianjin Cement Factory is the property of the current crown prince and the chief minister of the cabinet, Liu Jin and Liu Gong. It has always been one thing, one spit and one nail."

"The guys who work under him have always been excellent. You can sign as many contracts as you want, and you won't lose a penny."

When the recruiting supervisor heard this, he immediately replied in a serious manner.

"It turned out to be the property of His Royal Highness and the chief minister of the cabinet!"

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately nodded their heads, and immediately many people said: "I, I want to come~"

"I want to come too~"

"You want me. Although I eat a lot, I have great strength and work hard."

"Haha, what I want is something I can eat and do."

The recruiting supervisor immediately smiled and said, "If you want to come for an interview, everyone should line up, line up, and bring your ID card."

"We work in the cement factory and do physical work, so we require those who are physically strong. Of course, our firm will never treat everyone badly. The current wages are a bit low, but everyone can increase their wages every year in the future. Yes, everyone, work hard for the crown prince and Mr. Liu."

"In the future, the factory will hire people to teach everyone to read and write. As long as they can read and write, they can be promoted to management in the future. There are opportunities. The only thing everyone needs to remember is to be honest and do things according to their duties. "

Seeing that there were many responders, the recruiting supervisor shouted happily.

Sichuan is about to carry out large-scale construction, and it must use a lot of cement, so the scale of the Sichuan branch is also relatively large. According to the plan, the number of workers in the first phase of this branch will exceed 5000, and the output will be The cement not only needs to meet the needs of Sichuan, but also needs to be sold to the entire southwest region.

"Clang~clang~"

"Hiring, hiring!"

"Sichuan Branch of Miyun Iron Works is recruiting workers!"

"The new-style schools are required to graduate from middle school, guarantee food and housing, start with 5 taels of silver per month, and those with excellent skills will receive favorable treatment."

"Six days a week, one day off, eight hours a day, bonus at the end of the year!"

The cement factory here is recruiting people, and on the other street, the steel factory is also beating gongs and drums to recruit people. With the sound of gongs and drums, a large number of people gathered immediately.

"5 taels of silver a month!"

"I'm coming, I'm coming!"

When someone heard it, they immediately raised their hands and shouted.

"Have you ever been to school?"

"No~"

"Do you know how to read?"

"I don't know~"

"Go away, go away, we don't want those who haven't had a book."

"I, I am an elementary school student who went to a new-style school, and I know how to read and count."

"primary school?"

"Okay, count yourself in, go over there to fill in the information, check up, and sign the contract."

"Why do you have to go to a new school?"

"Isn't it just blacksmithing? Who wouldn't be the same, I'm very strong, why don't you recruit me?"

"Our steel factory is not a blacksmith's shop. It doesn't mean that strong strength is enough. What we want are talents who understand smelting, and workers who understand technology. Do you think that our steel factory works with a hammer?"

When the recruiting supervisor heard this, he immediately laughed.

"Can the blacksmith shop give you 5 taels of silver per month?"

"This money is not so easy to get. You must have skills and understand some things. Moreover, you can work in a steel factory after training. If you have no education, can't read, and don't know how to count, there is nothing you can do. adapted."

"You can go to the cement factory next door and try it. There are no requirements for recruiting workers there, all you need is strength, and those who work more will get more money."

"Really?"

"Then I'll take a look around."

"Haha~"

Scenes similar to this are staged on the streets of Chengdu, and large factories and commercial firms are also stationed in Sichuan one after another, planning to flex their muscles here, investing in factories, commercial firms, workshops and so on.

All of a sudden, the whole of Sichuan was spreading the news.

"Have you heard?"

"There are a lot of factories and commercial firms in Chengdu that are recruiting people. The lowest monthly payment has reached 4 taels of silver, and they are still maintained."

"seriously?"

"Of course it's true. My second uncle just came back from Chengdu, and now the brothers in the family are all going to Chengdu. If the four brothers in their family go to the cement factory, they can earn money for a month. 20 taels of silver, and in a few months, you can go home and have a beautiful big house."

"Really?"

"It must be true, pack up, pack up, let's go to Chengdu together."

"Go, go, I have to go. It would be a pity to miss such a good thing. I have worked so hard to farm the land, and I can see a few copper coins a year. It is actually a few taels of silver a month to go to the factory."

"That's right, everyone who knows the news is running to Chengdu."

"The emperor really has nothing to say to us Sichuanese. He is investing a lot of money to build railways, and he wants to revitalize Sichuan and Southwest. He said that he will invest in roads, bridges, and railways in Sichuan on a large scale."

"There are also tax incentives. This will attract a large number of factories and commercial firms to come to our Sichuan side to set up branch factories and commercial firms, so a large number of workers will be needed."

"So that's it, let's go, let's go, pack up, pack up and go to Chengdu."

"Yes, yes, hurry up. If it's too late, they'll be full, and we won't have a chance."

In one village after another, people who heard the news were rushing to tell each other, packed their things in a hurry, invited their brothers and friends, and ran to Chengdu.

The news soon spread to the poor Weijia Village.

Weijia Village has a lot of people and little land, and it has always been a well-known bachelor village in ten miles and eight towns, because Weijia Village has always only married daughters, and very few daughter-in-laws.

There is no way, it is really poor here, every household has only a little land, and the food grown is not enough to eat, it is even more difficult to marry a wife.

"Good news, good news!"

"Chengdu is recruiting a lot of workers, it's hiring a lot!"

"Any one has a few taels of silver per month, everyone, hurry up and pack up your things and follow me to Chengdu to work."

Wei Tie hurried to the house while shouting in the village.

He just went to the county town and heard that there are many factories and commercial firms in Chengdu that are recruiting people. He immediately felt that the opportunity had come, so he rushed home without stopping, preparing to call his brothers in the family to go to Chengdu together.

"Tiezi, is it true or not?"

Someone asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true. I heard it in the county seat. Now the news has spread. Many people are heading to Chengdu."

"If you don't believe me, you can inquire and inquire, but when you inquire clearly, it may be difficult to find a job by then."

After Wei Tie left a few words, he came to the house in a hurry, looked at his elder brother Wei Huo who was still weaving bamboo baskets, and said, "Brother, let's go, let's pack up quickly and go to Chengdu with me."

"Why are you going to Chengdu?"

Wei Huo asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's to make money. Now there are many factories and commercial firms in Chengdu that are recruiting workers. There are a lot of people in need. Let's go there quickly. I heard that the salary is a few taels of silver a month, and we will keep it."

"I'll call the second brother and the fourth brother, you pack up your things quickly, and we brothers will go to Chengdu together."

"I have worked hard here in Chengdu for a year or two, and when I get home and have a beautiful new house, I don't believe that we will not be able to marry a wife."

While talking, Wei Tie hurried to find his second and fourth brothers.

After a while, all the brothers arrived home.

"You four brothers are all going to Chengdu?"

"This can't be a lie. A few taels of silver a month, including food and lodging, how can there be such a good thing in the world."

"That's right, I'd better farm the land honestly at home, at least I won't be hungry."

"If you go to another place and you don't know the place where you live, if you can't find a job at that time, you will starve and suffer from cold."

"Yes, yes, there will be no pies in the sky, a few taels of silver a month, how can there be such a good thing, we will not see a single silver dollar at the end of a year."

"You can't be deceived by someone, can you? Where did the news come from?"

When the young and strong in the village heard the news, they also gathered together one after another. Looking at the four brothers Wei Tie, Wei Huo, Wei Qing, and Wei Jin who were packing up and leaving, they also said with a smile, expressing doubts one after another, thinking that Wei Tie must have been cheated.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you~"

"When our brothers earn money, build a new house and marry a wife, you will know if this is true."

"If you stay in the village, you won't be able to marry a wife for the rest of your life. Why don't you go out and have a try, even if you are cheated?"

As soon as Wei Tie heard this, he didn't bother to pay attention to them immediately, and took his brother on the road to Chengdu without hesitation.
