Chapter 325: Chapter 324 Imagine...

"I used to lament missing the chance to go to the countryside, but now, it seems the factory is keen to ensure we don’t miss out!"

"Seriously, I just sent my youngest son away a few days ago, and unexpectedly, now it’s my turn."

"Why bother with this nonsense, mobilizing a gang of farmers to work... Processing matches isn’t that hard, but they still have to farm, how could they possibly meet the quota?"

"Splitting a home in two, and that pay isn’t enough for anything."

"Ah..."

"Ah..."

The two men in their forties grew more saddened as they talked, almost breaking down and crying.

Lin Nianhe and Wang Shumei exchanged glances, awkwardly unsure of what to say.

They could empathize with their feelings.

Just imagine—

On a clear and sunny day, you’re in the office, drinking tea, shaking your legs, reading the newspaper, and suddenly, you’re told you’re being dispatched to a rural area to set up a branch.

Moreover, no skilled workers, no salary supplements, just daunting production targets.

Who wouldn’t feel like exploding?

Fortunately, these two got off at the next two stops, seemingly headed to the Cooperative Society, probably to prepare for their sudden assignment.

Lin Nianhe and Wang Shumei took over their seats, exchanged glances, and couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Wang Shumei whispered, "We should inform Uncle Team Leader, at least to arrange some accommodations for them."

They were not yet at Ten Miles Team, but their hearts were already sinking, foreseeing difficult work ahead.

"No need, Uncle Team Leader will take care of it," Lin Nianhe said, "I have faith in him."

She knew Uncle Team Leader too well; apart from his rigid mouth, the rest of him was as soft as marshmallow.

Lin Nianhe looked out the window, frowning slightly, "It’s not us who need to prepare, but the factory..."

...

The next day.

After a lengthy exchange of arguments, they finally settled on five yuan for ten thousand boxes of matches. This included not only the cost of pasting matchboxes but also packing and transport.

Lin Nianhe, with a "we’ve been cheated" expression, signed the contract on behalf of Ten Miles Team.

In reality, her heart was bursting with joy.

Packing matches was not difficult; twenty in a box, and after getting accustomed, hardly any counting was needed, taking little time.

As for deliveries, they’d have made them to the provincial city without complaints, so why fret about just transporting to the town’s Cooperative Society?

Using this as a reason, they added an extra yuan for labor costs, and Lin Nianhe was quite content.

She truly was a business genius, living up to the glory of the most brilliant transmigrator.

Tian Qingyuan was also very happy.

Their final agreed price yesterday was five yuan and fifty cents for ten thousand boxes, and now it was only five yuan, which pleased him greatly.

Tian Qingyuan carefully stored the agreement, smiling as he extended his hand to Lin Nianhe:

"Miss Lin, happy coop..."

Lin Nianhe firmly shook his hand:

"Happy cooperation, happy cooperation, happy! Cooperation!"

Those were words she wasn’t excited to say!

Tian Qingyuan paused for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Yes, happy cooperation, but I must say, I care more about quality than quantity, please don’t let there be any issues with quality."

If the quantity was insufficient, they could transfer goods from the factory, but severe quality issues would be a major loss.

Lin Nianhe took a deep breath.

She was scared to death.

She immediately nodded, "Rest assured, we will definitely not do a sloppy job. To be honest, we actually care more about this cooperation than the match factory."

Tian Qingyuan laughed, nodding in understanding.

Indeed, earning a salary is indeed better than earning points.

Tian Qingyuan picked up his teacup, intending to see the guest out.

However, Lin Nianhe seemingly didn’t notice his hint and asked, "Uncle Tian, how many comrades will you send to guide us in our work?"

"Two," Tian Qingyuan saw she had serious questions to ask, so he put down his teacup, "An accountant and a quality inspector, both veteran employees of our factory, unquestionably competent."

"Thank you for considering us to this extent. It’s just that the two comrades will have a tough time in the future. Our conditions can’t compare to the provincial city, and their food relations aren’t set up with us. They will definitely face many difficulties in life." Lin Nianhe changed her tone, cheerfully added, "But with a thoughtful leader like you, I’m sure you will arrange things well for their living conditions."

Tian Qingyuan: "..."

He hadn’t really thought about this issue before.

It’s not that he felt these difficulties were trivial, but that everything was moving so quickly, one day after another, he hadn’t even thought about arranging external assistance.

Imagine this—

An ordinary day, you’re at home, sipping tea, shaking your legs, reading the newspaper, when suddenly you’re informed that you should establish a branch.

And there’s this unstoppable young lady, cheerfully and urgently pushing you to get things done.

Who wouldn’t be flustered?

Now reminded, Tian Qingyuan cleared his throat and said, "It’s all for the construction of the factory. I believe our factory’s comrades will certainly have no complaints!"

Lin Nianhe mentally sneered.

There were plenty of complaints.

She had heard them herself.

Tian Qingyuan continued, "Our factory does provide external assistance, and while there will still be difficulties, it can alleviate some."

Lin Nianhe finally breathed a sigh of relief for those unlucky assigned employees.

She blinked her eyes, looking at Tian Qingyuan with admiration, "Uncle Tian, you truly are a thoughtful leader who cares for the factory and the comrades!"

Tian Qingyuan was quite pleased. After Lin Nianhe left, he immediately called those two assigned employees and told them about the assistance.

"I know you all have families to support, and there definitely are difficulties at home. The factory will provide you with ten yuan a month as external assistance, the amount is fixed and won’t change. If your families have any difficulties, come directly to me, and I’ll do my best to solve them..."

The two assigned employees exchanged glances.

Suddenly feeling that the curses they threw out yesterday were too harsh— Factory Director Tian was indeed a good leader!

...

The moment the phone at Ten Miles Team headquarters rang, Li Dahe picked it up, "Hello, is this Miss Lin?"

As he spoke, Wang Hong and Accountant Zhao in the room also stopped their work and looked towards him.

"It’s me, Uncle Team Leader, I’ve just come from the match factory, and we’ve already negotiated the wages."

"Speak quickly!" Li Dahe couldn’t hide his excitement, his hands involuntarily gripping the edge of the table.

"Our job includes pasting matchboxes, box assembly, packaging, and transport, ten thousand boxes for five yuan." Lin Nianhe quickly stated, knowing Li Dahe was anxious, "We need to ensure quality and quantity, and the factory will send an accountant and a quality inspector to assist our work."

Li Dahe: "...!"

His mind went blank, and after a pause, he incredulously exclaimed:

"Five yuan!"

"Did you go negotiating with a kitchen knife in hand?"

"Girl, you better go apologize to them quickly, don’t get yourself arrested and jailed!"

Lin Nianhe: "..."
