Older villagers tended to take advantage of their seniority. In fact, this was why Yu Bing included the age requirents. The establishnt of a new factory included the establishnt of rules. She had to let the workers learn to obey managent right from the beginning. Otherwise, she would have to spend ti managing these people.
As long as the first batch of employees could be managed according to the factory managent system, even if they recruited older workers later, there wouldn’t be any trouble.
Yu Bing said calmly, “The factory has just been established, and many things are still in the process of being explored. Young people learn quickly, which helps the factory figure out the correct production model quickly. Only then can we gain a foothold and expand production.”
After these words, everyone quieted down.
Yu Bing continued, “In the future, the factory will need to expand recruitnt. I will relax the age limit, but there’s one thing that won’t change. All workers who enter the factory have to pass the written test.”
Yu Bing made this decision for the sake of the factory. The villagers weren’t stupid. The factory was the village’s industry. If the factory could do better, they could get more money at the end of the year. Moreover, everyone felt much better when they heard that they still had a chance.
Most importantly, almost every family had people of this age. It didn’t matter if they were old, as long as their sons, daughters, or daughters-in-law had a chance!
Hence, everyone stopped protesting and hurriedly pulled their family mbers into the queue to sign up.
Other than Feng Cai, Yu Yan and Yao Nian didn’t sign up either.
There was naturally no need to ntion Feng Cai. He had already been appointed as the chief of the sales departnt. Although he was currently a general without an army, he was still a leader. As long as the factory perford well, it was only a matter of ti before he had subordinates.
The intellectuals were envious, but they couldn’t do anything about it. After all, they couldn’t give the factory the necessary machines like Feng Nian could.
However, because of Feng Cai’s example, the young people began to rack their brains to think of what benefits their family’s connections could bring to the factory so that they could successfully beco workers.
Yu Yan couldn’t take this lying down. She couldn’t stand being led by Yu Bing. Putting aside her identity as Yu Bing’s sister, submitting to Yu Bing and being controlled by Yu Bing was worse than asking her to farm.
Yao Nian, on the other hand, was waiting for his mother to propose the idea of marriage to Yu Bing’s parents. He had the intention of letting Yu Bing give him a managent position, so he disdained signing up here.
There were 187 applicants. They would participate in the written test three days after the registration deadline.
In the past three days, the He Mountain Brigade had been in high spirits!
At this ti, most people had never officially attended school and had only attended literacy classes.
They rarely read or write. As ti passed, other than knowing how to write their na, because it involved getting work points, many people had forgotten how to write other words.
Over the past few days, everyone had been asking each other questions and discussing as they worked. From ti to ti, they would gesture on the ground.
The high learning atmosphere of the villagers made the intellectual youths especially nervous. They, who originally felt that they had the upper hand, suddenly lost their confidence. Every day, after work, they took out their textbooks from their previous studies and revised them attentively.
Yu Bing was happy to hear this because it was getting closer and closer to the ti the college entrance examination was resud. Others might not know, but as soone who had experienced the future, she knew very well that once the policy to resu the college entrance examination was adopted, it ant that the entire country would undergo a trendous change. She hoped that the intellectual youths of the He Mountain Brigade could seize the opportunity.
The college entrance examination had been put on hold for 10 years. This ant that a large number of positions for high-level talents were completely vacant. This made the country crave talents to the extre. Therefore, after the university students recruited through the college entrance examination three years ago graduated, they held very important positions in various departnts of the country.
It could be said that it was a chance for all scholars to turn things around.
Yu Bing personally ca up with an exam paper for this written test. The language arts section tested composition and grammar. They also had to write a small essay of about 100 words. The Mathematics section tested addition and subtraction thods of numbers within 100 and the conversion of currency units.
In fact, Yu Bing didn’t have high expectations. As long as one could understand words and calculate, one could pass. Therefore, as long as one mastered basic knowledge points, one could pass.
