Chapter 275 Farmers who work in cities: It is difficult to become well-off by farming.

"Everyone, line up. Don't be crowded. Don't be anxious. Register one by one. After registration, get on the car on the left. We will go for a physical examination together later..."

Xu Huasheng came to the demolition site. At the demolition site, Xu Huasheng saw a long queue.

"What is this for?"

Xu Huasheng asked directly after seeing the team.

"Mr. Xu, this is our Tenglong Construction recruitment. These people are from the surrounding villages, which can be regarded as the benefits we give them. The demolition households will be given priority to sign up and be hired first, followed by the surrounding villagers..."

The staff member's words made Xu Huasheng laugh.

No wonder there was such a long queue. It turned out that Tenglong Construction was recruiting workers.

It’s normal for Tenglong Construction to have large-scale recruitment queues.You must know that in this era, there are actually not many farmers who can actually go to cities to work.Many farmers just keep a few acres of land at home all year round.

It’s not that I don’t want to go out, it’s that there aren’t so many jobs.There are not many factories and construction sites in China now. It is not easy to find a place to work and make money, especially for older middle-aged people.

Now, Longteng Construction is suddenly recruiting workers in the surrounding areas. How can these people not be active?Tenglong Construction has high wages and good benefits, and wages are paid monthly.

As for the question of whether working on the construction site is tiring or not, these farmers who have been working in the fields all their lives are not afraid of hardship or tiredness. They are just afraid that they will not be able to get paid for their hard work and will not be able to go home and explain.

However, these problems will not occur in Tenglong Construction. There is no contractor or shady boss in Tenglong Construction.Longteng Construction is a huge formal construction group. Before joining the company, you must undergo a physical examination. After passing the physical examination, you will go through the entry procedures and become a regular employee.

The salary is high, including food and housing, and there is a lot of work. Basically, you will not have to work for ten days and rest for half a month. If you are lucky, you can also make a lot of money by working abroad.

Now the reputation of Tenglong Construction Engineering has spread all over the country. Especially after this Spring Festival, Tenglong Construction Engineering's reputation has become famous in major rural areas across the country.

Many migrant workers from Tenglong Construction who went home to celebrate the New Year had smiles on their faces.Not only did these people bring a lot of money with them when they came back, but they were also sent directly to their hometowns by bus by the company, so they no longer had to buy train tickets and squeeze into the train.

And the happy days they described working at Tenglong Construction Engineering after they came back aroused the envy of many people in the village, and everyone was asking if Tenglong Construction Engineering still wanted them.

Looking at the envious eyes of others, these employees of Tenglong Construction who go home to celebrate the New Year are so proud.How could you not be proud?

In the past, they were the same as everyone else in the village. They relied on farming to support their families. They worked hard all year round and were still poor. Although they could get by, they lived a tight life, unlike the life of city people. The difference is huge, and you won’t be able to save much money throughout the year.

Things are different now. If you join Tenglong Construction Engineering, you can earn an average of 8000 yuan a month.Coupled with the year-end bonus, you can get [-] yuan or even more than [-] yuan a year, and this is still a net profit.Because Tenglong Construction provides food and accommodation, many people cannot afford to spend much money.

8000 yuan is a lot of money in this era. 8000 yuan can build three new tile-roofed houses in rural areas.

One year of work to build three tile-roofed houses, and another year of work to decorate the house and become a well-off person.

The days are so different from before.If you have money, you can feed your family better, buy two more clothes for your children, and buy a set of cosmetics for your wife. Who doesn’t like this life, and who doesn’t covet this job.

So after the Chinese New Year, when Tenglong Construction's vehicles took these people back to the construction site, everyone in the village was very envious.After the new year, they become the most prosperous people in the village, and their relatives and friends are all fawning over them, all so that when Tenglong Construction recruits workers in the future, these people can recommend them first.

With this kind of reputation, Tenglong Construction has no worries about its workers.Countless farmers want to join Tenglong Construction Engineering, and they cherish it very much after entering. Every one of them abides by the company's rules and dare not mess around.Moreover, when the company provides opportunities for further study, many people are very active.

The long queue in front of us is the best proof of Tenglong Construction's reputation. For a company, those who win the hearts of the people win the world. As long as you are a conscientious company, you will not have labor shortages.

As for those factories that say there is a labor shortage, several factories have reflected on themselves.Have they ever reflected on how they have treated their workers over the years?Have you reflected on whether you treat your employees as human beings and give them some necessary respect?

Obviously not. They are squeezing their labor force with the lowest wages, and then find various reasons to delay wages. In the end, they can't recruit people and cry out about labor shortages.

Xu Huasheng and his party arrived at the demolition site, and the entire demolition work had already started.Some construction vehicles are busy.

Most of this area is farmland, and the farmland is full of green wheat seedlings.Many construction vehicles are clearing these wheat seedlings, and some people are cutting down trees.Some local farmers are picking up these wheat seedlings.For some farmers who have cattle and sheep at home, these wheat seedlings are the best pasture.

No one stopped the construction progress, and these wheat seedlings were compensated for the young seedling fee. As long as the money was in place, there would be no violent expropriation.

Looking at these wheat seedlings and thinking about the farmers who had just signed up to join Tenglong Construction, Xu Huasheng frowned slightly.

"We will use a lot of farmers' unions for this project. I'm afraid most of the surrounding farmers will be drawn to this construction site. By then, ordinary people like summer and autumn harvests will be busy."

Xu Huasheng couldn't help but said.

"Mr. Xu, there is nothing we can do about this. People can't care about both ends. When the summer harvest comes, they are not willing to ask for leave. Even if the grain in the fields is sold, they may not be able to earn more than a few days' wages. The current summer harvest work It’s very time-consuming. Harvest in summer and plant in autumn. It doesn’t take more than a month and a half to get everything done..."

The staff next to him whispered.

This person in charge is familiar with the current summer harvest in rural areas. Today's summer harvest is almost entirely manual. The wheat is harvested and cut with a sickle. After cutting, it has to be pulled back to the drying field by rickshaw and crushed. After the crushing is completed, the grain must be taken out. Clean it, dry it, and store it at home.

After harvesting, you still have to plow the land, sow seeds, water the land, etc.

From summer harvest to autumn grain planting, in this era, it often takes half a month and a month.

In this era, mechanical harvesting only existed on large state-owned farms. For small farmers like Yu Province, where each household has a few acres of land, it would be nice to have a threshing machine, let alone a harvester.

The staff member's words made Xu Huasheng think deeply, and then an idea came to his mind. As he thought, a plan was quickly hatched.
