Chapter 147 Preparations Before Building the Factory

Song Yiping initially only intended to casually matchmake, since she had introduced so many girls to Song Changgui before, and none of them had taken a liking to them.

Unexpectedly, their unintentional actions led to a happy ending, and the two of them actually became a couple.

"Okay! I'll definitely come early that day."

Zhang Zhizhi is one of the few good friends she has made here.

Although they didn't interact much, Ji Sisi could sense that she genuinely treated her as a friend.

After saying goodbye to Song Yiping, Ji Sisi quickened her pace to the agricultural supplies office. She thought to herself that half a month had passed, and she had prepared all the necessary paperwork. It was time to officially begin the installation process.

Uncle Zhou had sharp eyes and saw Ji Sisi walking towards the police station from afar.

"Comrade Ji! It's been a long time since I've seen you."

Uncle Zhou took the initiative to greet him.

"Uncle Zhou, are Director Wu and Professor Chen at the institute?"

“You’ve come at just the right time; they’ve just returned.”

Ji Sisi made her way to Director Wu's office without any hindrance and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Ji Sisi pushed open the door. "Director Wu, it's been a long time."

When Director Wu heard Ji Sisi's voice, he was momentarily dazed. He rubbed his eyes and realized that the person who came was indeed Ji Sisi.

"Director Wu, how's the greenhouse project progressing lately?"

"You have the nerve to ask? You're the one who brought it up, yet you don't care at all. If it weren't for my clever apprentice, I couldn't count on you at all."

As soon as he said it, Director Wu regretted it.

He also learned some things about Ji Sisi's hometown through Chen Chen, but fortunately the matter was resolved.

Chen Chen's old classmate returned home a week ago, and Ji Sisi should have returned earlier as well, but she only came to the agricultural supplies institute now.

It's obvious he didn't take the agricultural supplies department seriously; it's a wonder he didn't hold the Sixth Team accountable before.

Ji Sisi didn't take the old man's angry words to heart.

"I had no choice. This is just a small gift I brought for you and Professor Chen. Please don't be upset."

Ji Sisi took out the liquor she had found in her spatial storage.

This is the same brand of baijiu as Zhang Qianjin's last one. The packaging is plain and unremarkable, nothing special about it. It's just average and perfect for gifting.

"Is this a bribe?"

Ji Sisi, the scumbag boyfriend, said, "If that's how you think, there's nothing I can do."

Despite his reluctance, Director Wu happily accepted the gift and took the opportunity to ask Ji Sisi a few detailed questions.

Ji Sisi stayed in Director Wu's office for an hour.

Looking at the dense annotations, Ji Sisi couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say you had a smart apprentice?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Director Wu put away his notebook with satisfaction.

Ji Sisi: "..."

Seeing that it was almost time, Ji Sisi said goodbye to Director Wu. She still needed to go back with Director Yan to set up the machine.

Since Team Five has already been selected, the items should naturally be moved to Team Five.
-
Locust Flower Production Team Five.

When the items arrived, Team Five had nowhere to put them. The small office, after removing the desks and chairs and adding other items, was completely full.

The warehouse was also filled with various grazing and farming tools.

Director Yan, with a serious expression and hands on his hips, said, "Didn't I give you advance notice and ask you to make room for me?"

Captain Wu shared the same helplessness. "Director Yan, I really did have people pack it up, but our team has so much stuff, I didn't expect this thing to be so big..."

Although he didn't think much of the idea proposed by this young girl, he still dared not disobey Director Yan's words.

Director Wu also felt wronged, he really didn't expect such a big commotion.

Looking at the space that had been cleared out, there was only enough room for one shelf, and nowhere to put the other two.

"Director Yan, where should we put it? We have a lot of things to do!" The machinery factory's transport team was also getting impatient.

"Go to Team Six!"

Director Yan was furious. "Tomorrow morning, drive the selected cattle to Team Six."

Captain Wu apologized repeatedly and nodded in agreement.

Finally, the machine was installed in Team Six, and Captain Ma and Li Yanhong's office, along with a group of people, gathered around it, finding it all quite novel.

"Sisi, can this stuff really be used to make beef jerky?"

Ji Sisi explained, "It's for hanging beef."

"Captain, once the funding is approved, we'll start building the factory and hiring people. I'd like to ask..."

Before Ji Sisi could finish speaking, Captain Ma excitedly interrupted her.

"Sisi, are you planning to recruit people for our team?"

"Not entirely. The job openings are open to the entire Huaihua Commune. Anyone from Huaihua can apply, and whether you get the job depends on your individual abilities."

"That's great! A secure job! Do you know how much you get paid a month?"

Captain Ma was delighted to hear this and was ready to announce the good news at work the next day.

"This needs to be notified by Director Yan; it's not my arrangement."

When Ji Sisi returned today, she and Captain Ma had already discussed it. Since the factory was just starting out, they didn't need many people and tentatively set twelve job positions.

Six men and six women worked together. The men were responsible for slaughtering and cutting the meat, while the two women were mainly responsible for marinating the meat, two for hanging the meat and drying it in the sun, and two for packaging.

Different jobs have different salaries, so this matter is mainly the responsibility of Director Yan.

Ji Sisi was in charge of selecting the people who would pickle the meat, and she was the only one who knew the flavor of beef jerky from later generations.

"Sister Sisi, what were you about to ask?" Li Yanhong scolded Captain Ma, "Uncle, you interrupted Sister Sisi when you spoke."

"I'd like to ask if our team has any female members who are good at cooking?"

Air-dried beef comes in two versions: original and marinated.

Marinade is the most popular and best-selling ingredient, and it is one of the most important parts of the entire process.

In later generations, this beef jerky became a top choice for snacking while watching TV series and killing time.

While waiting for the factory to be built, Ji Si thought he should first find two people who knew how to stir-fry ingredients to prepare, and then take his time with the other less technically demanding tasks.

Director Yan will summon all the team leaders to the commune tomorrow to announce this important event.

If it weren't for the incident involving Team Five today, the team leaders would have gone to the commune for a meeting tonight.

From the initial construction of the factory to the recruitment of workers, all six production teams competed fairly. Considering that building a factory was essentially a manual labor job requiring no skills, workers such as carpenters and stonemasons were excluded.

All other slots are evenly distributed among the teams, and the selection process is left to the team captains.

After setting up the shelf, Ji Sisi prepared to return home, only to realize that the car was still parked at the commune.

In the end, she never expected that Zhang Qiang would be the one to ride the bike back for her.

Ji Sisi wet a handkerchief and wiped the car inside and out clean, looking utterly disgusted.

Zhang Qiang never expected that Ji Sisi wouldn't fall for his attempt to please her.

Ji Sisi added mercilessly, "Thank you for helping me ride my bike back, but I'm not going to let what happened before go."

She'll write a letter about what happened that day when she gets back, and give it to Director Yan when she sees him tomorrow. She wants to resolve Zhang Qiang's matter as soon as possible so she can finally get her revenge.
