Chapter Eighty-Three: Snatching People

  Liang Sanping gained two more tails from this, and these two tails following behind Liang Sanping's body made many difficult things become easier to handle.

  Originally, the 150 mu of land in the inner farm was planned to be allocated to the newly established "Rehe Foreign Trade Company", but there were also whispers. Thinking about occupying some land, but after these two fierce devils posted notices, no one dared to make a sound.

  Everyone knows that this is Peng Lao San, the tyrant of the arena. If he comes to post the notice in a honest and humble manner, it will show his power. And another person who posts the notice with him is known to be the son of Liu Kezhang from the Security Department.

  With these two around, indeed not many people dared to mess with Liang Sanping and his gang. Even those who had originally occupied the land quietly retreated without a sound. They were afraid that if they weren't careful, they would provoke Liang Sanping, who had subdued these two fierce devils, to come out and deal with them.

  They were actually worried for nothing, as Liang Sanping didn't have the slightest intention of competing with the workers. What's the point of comparing strength with the workers below? Liang Sanping wouldn't stoop to that level.

  Of course, if you insist on jumping up to him like Peng Lao San to find trouble. He won't mind taking the opportunity to tidy you up a bit, since you've come all the way here, he'll naturally want to fix you up properly.

  Of course, Lao Liang naturally did not treat them unfairly. Their names were directly put on the roster of the new company, and the first company was paid by Liang Sanping himself.

  "Work hard and don't worry about food and drink. If you dare to mess with me again, I'll deal with you." After this matter was settled, the two of them each received a salary of 40 yuan from Liang Sanping.

  No grain coupons were given, but the forty yuan was enough to make the two of them very happy. Although Old Peng had a bad reputation, he didn't have any real skills for making money either.

  With his seniority, he now earns less than 30 yuan a month. Liu Weicheng was a bit better off and arranged for Old Dad to work at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Although the cooperative is easy-going, the salary is not high, only around 31 or 32 yuan a month.

  As soon as they got the money, the two of them immediately promised Liang Sanping with utmost sincerity that they would definitely handle things beautifully and not let him lose face. For these words, they almost got another severe scolding.

  "Are you doing things for me?! That's for your own sake! Do you know that?! Liang Sanping suddenly burst out scolding: "You're always loafing around. Don't you feel ashamed?! In the future, when you want to find a wife, which woman would be willing to marry a loafer?!"

  "Honestly work hard and make a name for yourself! Don't embarrass yourself, got it?! All of you get out. Hurry up and go handle your business."

  The two of them were scolded and left with their tails between their legs. But they worked even harder afterwards. To be honest, these two weren't thoroughly bad people either.

  Although they had been involved in fights and troubles, such as stealing vegetables from the workers' fields, they hadn't done anything else bad. Moreover, if something really happened in the squad, they would still come out to take responsibility for it.

  For example, Peng Lao San, stealing vegetables was discovered by the staff aunt and scolded. He just smiled awkwardly and didn't retort a single sentence. For example, Liu Er Dangzi, he secretly gave vegetables to several poor households next to the stadium.

  They are not bad kids, they just don't know which way to go many times. So they just mix around. Farm work. Their parents' life, they don't want to repeat it again.

  But they can't find another way out, they don't know what to do or how to be good. That's why it becomes like this, and Liang Sanping's approach gives them another hope.

  They originally heard Liang Sanping's name and thought he was just bragging. Who could be so fierce? But after being dealt with by Liang Sanping, they were convinced instead.

  What's most important is: they saw a way of life that was different from their parents', and Liang Sanping's way of life made them yearn for it even more. Having skills, having abilities, living freely and unrestrainedly.

  "Wei Cheng, you go and maintain the continuity. Lao San, you're outside calling them to fill out their resumes. Just follow the format I gave you." After the recruitment notices were posted, Liang Sanping began to get busy.

  This time, a lot of people are going to be hired. The local government will provide 50 people, and the remaining 50 job quotas will all be handed over to the farm. After seeing Liu Weicheng and Peng Lao San posting notices, and learning that they can actually get 40 yuan, everyone's hearts were moved. These two rascals, if they can get 40 yuan for selling their labor, surely we won't get less than them?!

  With this in mind, many farm workers' children have tried to apply for jobs. In the past, there were not many positions on the farm, but in recent years, the number of positions that can accommodate these workers' children has been decreasing.

  More and more working women began to seek another way out. But in this era, what other options were there?! The appearance of Liang Sanping gave them an opportunity.

  "Leader, I'm a high school graduate. And at home, I also have experience in raising pigs and growing vegetables. After knowing that you want to hire someone, we specially found some agricultural books to read. Most of them are about vegetable cultivation..."

  Looking at the child in front of him with a red face, Liang Sanping couldn't help but smile. In this era, many people still don't know how to sell themselves, and their words are all straightforward.

  But this is what Liang Sanping likes most. Those oily and slick ones are actually harder to manage. It's better like this, everyone speaks more directly.

  "I've reviewed your resume and materials, but you're still a team member? This is not bad." Liang Sanping smiled and said: "However, our probationary period is three months. If performance is poor within these three months, one will be removed from the team. Moreover, within these three months, the salary is only 23 yuan. Can you accept this?"

  "Alright! No problem!" The young man immediately jumped up, and Liang Sanping smiled at this young man named Huang Xingguang and said: "Then go get a form now, fill it out first! Come back tomorrow to report for work!"

  "Great! Great! Thank you, boss! Thank you, boss......" With that, Huang Xingguang's child bowed deeply and left with a thousand thanks. Meanwhile, the person who came in afterwards looked enviously at Huang Xingguang's back, hoping to have such good luck himself.

  This time there were many applicants, so Liang Sanping asked Xu Tiancai and Xia Zhendong to join him as the main judges. They specially assessed these registered workers and selected suitable personnel.

  Let Xu Tiancai come, it's to use his mouth to tell others that he has no personal favors. And let Xia Zhendong come, more because of Xia Zhendong's profound knowledge of agriculture and his discerning eye for people.

  However, what made Liang Sanping unexpected was that he actually saw his old friend - Zhou Fugui!

  Of course, Zhou Fugui is not a good friend of Liang Sanping now. If following the historical trajectory, he will only get to know this stubborn guy in two years. What Liang Sanping did not expect was that this guy had given up his position as team leader and came to apply for a job at a new company. However, thinking that this guy has always been bold, Liang Sanping let it go.

  "Zhou Fugui!! What are you doing here?!" Liang Sanping didn't say a word, but the expression on Xu Tiancai, the director of the venue, changed. Actually, thinking about it, one can understand that the team leader is considered a backbone figure in the company.

  It's really annoying to "job hop" at this time, whoever would be unhappy about it.

  "What am I doing here?! I came here to apply for the job, of course!" Zhou Fugui raised an eyebrow and sneered: "What's wrong with the captain?! Is there a rule that says captains can't apply for jobs?! If there is such a rule, I'll submit my resignation first and then come back to apply!"

  "You... you!!" Xu Tiancai called out to Zhou Fugui, unable to say another word. Among the most famous team leaders in the entire Jianghai Farm was Zhou Fugui.

  This kid is notorious for being stubborn, if things don't go his way, he'll be dead set against you. And it's not just a matter of being stubborn, but also refusing to back down, no matter who tries to persuade him. Even if the team leader shows up, he won't budge if he doesn't want to.

  He happens to be in charge of the 20th team, which is surrounded by many rural villages. Only he can keep the situation under control there; if he were to be removed from his position, it would definitely lead to trouble with the local villagers.

  "You're the team leader! How can you be so disorganized and undisciplined?! If you want to transfer to a new company, then properly submit an application report. Running over here causing trouble, what's going on?!"

  "I told you I didn't come to make trouble, I'm just here for the interview!" Zhou Fugui curled his lip and walked up to Liang Sanping, saying: "I am Zhou Fugui, leader of the 20th squad. High school education, managed a company and cultivated rubber trees... also did farm work at home..."

  "If you're willing to come, then get ready for work tomorrow." Before Zhou Fugui could finish speaking, Liang Sanping directly said with a smile. He understood this old friend of his.

  He has a strong personality, but his temper is not small. However, his temper is not arbitrary, as long as you make sense, although he still grumbles, he will follow your advice and next time he will ask for your opinion first.

  "Are you sure?! You didn't even ask me anything, how could you agree so readily?!" Now it was Zhou Fugui's turn to be stunned. In fact, he had come for the interview today with a grudge in mind.

  The former head of the work area had a quarrel with someone over team management. In a fit of anger, he wanted to come to this recruitment fair, not really to apply for a job, but just to show off and say "I can still be a Buddha without you guys".

  "I said I agree, so it's settled. You'll be in charge of the production department. Collaborate with experts from the two institutes in South China and take responsibility for vegetable base production." Liang Sanping smiled slightly and said, "Whether you can come or not is up to you..."

  This nearly scared Zhou Fugui to death, but seeing Zhou Fugui's face change several times yet he still didn't open his mouth.

  "Comrade Xiao Zhou, you must think carefully! The organization has already planned to recommend you for further study, this is a rare opportunity......" Seeing that Zhou Fugui was moved, Xu Tiancai hastily stood up and said to Zhou Fugui: "You must think carefully!!"
