Chapter 315: Chapter 316: Restoration of the College Entrance Examination
Mr. Niu felt dizzy and a bit overwhelmed at the moment.
Xiao Xu couldn’t possibly predict the future, could she?
How did she guess so accurately? Indeed, a foreigner had called.
He snatched the list from Secretary Yang’s hands, looked it over one by one, his face a myriad of colors, "Why are there so many?"
"Director, these people have already placed their orders, paid directly into our factory’s accounts."
Mr. Niu was so excited he almost jumped up, then feigned a few coughs, "Come with me to the food factory."
He had to show off to Old Sun, who had been bragging in front of him these past few days.
Secretary Yang was unaware of his boss’s little scheme, thinking he was going to see Mr. Sun for some serious business.
Immediately, he nodded and followed his boss to the food factory.
Mr. Sun was surprised to see him, "Why are you here?"
Director Niu had been waiting for him to ask that, proudly tilting his head back, "I came to share some good news with you.
Xiao Xu was right, the orders started pouring in as soon as I returned.
It’s not much, just a million dollars when converted to US dollars."
"What the heck!" Mr. Sun’s voice raised several decibels, his eyes wide with disbelief, "Why so many?"
That question stumped Mr. Niu, who shook his head.
Xu Ying smiled mysteriously, "Director, don’t forget, we’ve sent out quite a few trinkets.
Once the diplomatic exchange ended, those people would surely return to their own countries. Our trinkets aren’t bad, are they?"
Mr. Niu shook his head again; they were definitely not bad.
The ones sold at the Friendship Building weren’t as good-looking as theirs.
"That’s the point, our beautiful trinkets, wouldn’t they look good on clothes?
Those foreign guests would surely want to show off back home, wearing such lovely clothes on the streets, certainly dazzling."
With that said, Mr. Niu had an epiphany.
This was essentially walking advertisement.
"Mr. Niu, next time you can’t accuse me of being biased, I treat everyone equally!" Xu Ying huffed, showing some temper.
Looking at Mr. Niu, she curved her lips into a smile, "Director, isn’t it about time to hand out salaries? You better find someone specifically to calculate mine in advance, or I fear when the time comes, there won’t be enough to pay me."
Mr. Niu looked as if he had seen a ghost, "Having someone specifically calculate your salary, you are indeed exceptional."
Mr. Sun immediately handed her a ledger, "See if it’s exceptional. This girl has earned a few decades’ worth of my salary in just one month."
Mr. Niu took the ledger, his expression utterly baffled.
He immediately instructed Secretary Yang, "Remember what Xiao Xu just said, find someone specifically to calculate her salary."
After finishing, his face full of envy, "Ah, Xiao Xu really is capable, such a high salary too!"
But the two of them only envied verbally, in reality, they admired more, Xiao Xu was capable, she had the skills.
These two old guys had never managed to participate in a diplomatic exchange in their lifetimes. If it weren’t for Xiao Xu, they probably never would have.
This time they also got to bask in Xiao Xu’s light, taking a trip and broadening their horizons.
After flaunting his success, Mr. Niu rushed back, there was still a pile of work to do.
Since they were going to hire more staff, the factory obviously had to increase in scale, otherwise, there wouldn’t be room for so many people.
News about the return of Yu County Food Factory and Textile Factory spread through the entire county in just one morning, and it also brought some good news.
Both factories were starting to expand and hire more staff.
Almost anyone who met the factories’ recruitment requirements were likely to be recruited.
This great news spread, and the people of Yu County cheered non-stop.
"Director, are we really going to continue recruiting? Do we really need to hire that many?" The employees of the two factories asked the director with excitement on their faces.
The main issue was that the factory was hiring too many people this time around, usually only hiring a hundred or two hundred workers in the past.
This time it had suddenly increased to two or three thousand.
The employees in the factory felt like they were dreaming.
"This is definitely true. Do you think I have nothing better to do than to joke around with you!
Xiao Xu brought in a million dollars for the factory. We’ll be busy for the next half year.
I’m even worried that a few thousand people won’t be enough. We’ll take it slow, and if it’s really not enough, we’ll continue to hire."
As soon as these words were spoken, the employees below began to perk up.
Everyone planned to go home and tell their families that the factory was hiring.
At the same time, good news spread across the country: The college entrance exams were resumed!
When the Youth Corps heard this news, they were all extremely thrilled, having waited so many years for this day to come.
Some older members of the Youth Corps, who had been sent to rural areas for more than a decade, saw a glimmer of hope in their dull eyes upon hearing the news.
"The college entrance exams have been resumed; we can go to university now, we can return to the city."
It was unknown who exclaimed this in a high-pitched voice.
Cries mixed with joy could be heard from the Youth Corps quarters everywhere.
When the news of the college entrance exams came out, Xu Ying was somewhat surprised—it didn’t take this long for the news to come out in her previous life.
In her previous life, they had to wait another month or two.
But it didn’t matter, she had been revising diligently all this time.
Second Brother Xu and Lu Daya had started studying and teaching each other as soon as Xu Ying began reminding them.
Now that they heard that the college entrance exams were restored and they could go to university, they couldn’t be more excited.
Thus, the people of Yu County were swept into a frenzy of borrowing study materials, but many had thought the entrance exams hopeless and had long lost track of their textbooks.
Consequently, in every large village, several Youth Corps members shared a single book.
After leaving the food factory, Xu Ying went home, granted special leave by Old Sun until the foreign guests arrived.
She was to rest well for now and continue schmoozing the foreign guests later.
As soon as Xu Ying got home, she found her house tightly surrounded by people from the Youth Corps.
Zhao Jiazong stood among the crowd, inciting the Youth Corps by saying, "Xu Shengcai, being a teacher in the county, must have plenty of study materials.
Now that the college entrance exams are restored, as his fellow villagers, why can’t we borrow some books to look at? Is he trying to keep them to himself so he can get into university?"
The mood among the Youth Corps people had been volatile for a few days, and hearing this, they were filled with anger.
"Captain, this is unfair. We’re all students; why can’t we borrow some books?
We, the Youth Corps, have suffered so much over the years here. Don’t you want to let us leave?"
The crowd became increasingly agitated as they spoke.
Zhao Jiazong, who had drawn a small knife at some point, charged towards the Xu family with it, not forgetting to shout to others, "Let’s fight them.
They just want to trap us in this miserable place forever, never letting us return.
Only by getting into university can we escape this wretched place and stop having to toil in the fields every day."
"Dad."
"Dad."
"Dad."
"Old man." Mrs. Xu saw Zhao Jiazong’s knife stabbing towards her husband, her face turning pale as she rushed over without a second thought.
