The weather in Saibei Province changes at every turn. The sun was shining brightly in the morning, but in the afternoon there were snowflakes!
Although it is not very big, it makes the whole sky gray.
At five o'clock, the snow on the ground was already more than ten centimeters thick.
Guessing that the educated youth members in the village should also be off work, Zhou Yang immediately packed his satchel and rushed to the village with Chen Beixuan and Liu Yunlong.
He promised to help Chen Shang solve the problem of insufficient workers to ensure that Mao's Five Selections could be published smoothly.
At present, the only ones who can meet the requirements are the educated youth in the village.
After all, printing plants need more workers than just manual labor. Typesetting and proofreading do not require a certain level of education.
Looking at the entire Babaoliang Village, there are only a few that can meet this requirement.
In view of this, Zhou Yang decided to go to the brigade headquarters after get off work.
Since Xipo is not far from the brigade headquarters, and Zhou Yang doesn't want to be too high-profile, they usually don't drive when in the village.
The thick military boots stepped on the soft snow, which felt like stepping on cotton.
And when you step down, there will be a big footprint, and it will make a "crunching" sound, which is indeed quite interesting.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the brigade headquarters!
As soon as he came over, he saw Wang Ping, Zhang Genwang and Tan Shiqing all in the office. In addition, Zhou Yang also saw Zhong Qi and Liu Youzhou also there. They were talking and laughing, talking about something!
Seeing Zhou Yang and others pushing the door in, Wang Ping immediately greeted: "Comrade Zhou Yang, come and sit down!"
Tan Shiqing, on the other hand, quickly stood up and poured tea for Zhou Yang, Liu Yunlong, Chen Beixuan and others!
"Zhong Qi, Teacher Liu, you two are here too. What are you talking about so happily?"
Wang Ping immediately said: "Doctor Zhong and Teacher Liu just came over and said that when they were walking around the village today, they found that many elderly people in the village were not in very good health, so they wanted to check the health of the elderly in the village, so they came over and talked to them. Let’s discuss it!”
"This is a good thing. We should have done this a long time ago!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
Seeing that both Zhou Yang and Wang Ping supported their idea, Zhong Qi immediately said: "Then let's make preparations and then start doing this!"
"Wait a minute!"
Then Zhou Yang continued: "I suggest you prepare for a few more days, and this matter cannot be limited to Babaoliang Village, it is best to extend it to all the elderly in the entire Lianhe Village."
"No problem, our health center is not short of people anyway, we can even go to each village to provide door-to-door services in person!" Zhong Qi said.
Zhou Yang nodded and said: "Yes, and I also suggest that you can establish their own health files for these elderly people to facilitate diagnosis and treatment in the future!"
Liu Youzhou said: "My idea is that we should open the operating room first. After all, when examining the elderly, what if a more serious illness is found?"
"I think it's okay. This morning I went to the warehouse at the back to look at the medical equipment. It's very complete, including an operating table and various instruments. All I need is to free up a decent house to use as an operating room!" Zhong Qida said.
Zhou Yang thought for a while and said: "The operating room is not like a general clinic or pharmacy. It has very high hygiene requirements. I'm afraid the house over there in the health center is not up to standard!"
"Let's put the operating room next to the Xipo Medical Laboratory. If we have any surgeries in the future, we can go there."
Zhong Qi's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this, and he said hurriedly: "I think it's okay. Professor Song and Professor Duan are both over there. If you encounter a more difficult operation, you can ask them to perform it!"
"Hahaha, you are treating them as free labor. I advise you to just keep this in your heart. If Professor Song and Professor Duan hear it, they will definitely cause trouble for you!" Zhou Yang said with a smile. .
When Zhong Qi and others heard this, they couldn't help laughing.
After talking and laughing, Zhou Yang looked at Wang Ping again and asked, "Are the educated youths in our village going to Yuanshantan again?"
"Most of them are gone, and the rest have their own things to do. What's wrong?"
"The printing factory on the west slope is short of people. I want to second some of their people there!" Zhou Yang said.
"Borrowing someone, how much?"
"At least a hundred people!"
"so much?"
"Well, we received a big order over there, but everyone is seriously short of manpower. We have no choice but to second them from the village!" Zhou Yang said.
"How long will the secondment last? Will it affect spring plowing?" Wang Ping asked in a deep voice.
Zhou Yang thought for a moment and realized that there were two large printing machines at the printing factory. If they were fully powered, they could print 30,000 to 40,000 pages in an hour.
Although 200,000 copies of Mao Zedong's anthology sounds like a lot, it actually won't take long as it's about to be printed.
"Twenty days is about right, no more than a month at most!"
"That's okay, as long as it doesn't affect spring plowing..."
Just as he was talking, there was a sudden jingling of bells outside the brigade headquarters.
Everyone immediately looked out through the windows and discovered that in the wind and snow, a mule carriage walked into the brigade headquarters from outside despite the wind and snow. There were seven or eight young people sitting on the mule carriage.
At this time, Tan Shiqing said hurriedly: "It's the members who went to work in Yuanshantan who are back!"
Wang Ping immediately said: "Xiao Tan, hurry up and take the work points book for everyone to record the work points!"
"okay!"
Then Wang Ping said to Zhou Yang: "If you want to second people, then call all the educated youths over and ask them what they want!"
"Okay, when everyone comes back, I'll use the loudspeaker to notify everyone!"
"OK..."
At 5:40, almost all the educated youth who were working outside were back, and the people who worked in the village's feed factory, bone meal factory, pig farm, and chicken farm also all left work.
Zhou Yang saw that the time was almost up, and then came to the broadcast room of the brigade headquarters!
It had been some time since Zhou Yang had been to the broadcasting room, and Zhou Yang was a little unfamiliar with these old-fashioned broadcasting equipment.
After tinkering for a while, the equipment was finally debugged, and then Zhou Yang announced into the microphone: "Attention, comrades of educated youth in the village, everyone will go to the brigade headquarters at six o'clock for a meeting. Only educated youth..."
After the notice was sent out, Zhou Yang immediately took several educated youths who had already registered to the meeting room next door and simply cleaned the place in preparation for the meeting later.
Since the conference room here has not been used for a long time, it is already covered with dust.
When Zhou Yang and others cleaned the conference room, it was already almost six o'clock, and at this time, the educated youth from the village also came in droves.
Later, Zhou Yang asked all the educated youth to come to the conference room to prepare for the meeting.
One hundred, forty or fifty people all poured into the small conference room, which was really crowded. Only those in the front had stools to sit on, and those who came late could only stand in the back.
This is the only meeting Zhou Yang has held alone for the educated youth in the past two years. For a while, everyone was talking about it:
"Lao Hou, you follow Cui Zhiqing every day. Do you know why Zhou Zhiqing called us here?"
"How can I know, but I just heard Brother Cui say that he doesn't know either. It should be because Zhou Zhiqing has something to do temporarily!"
"Li Zhiqing, you have such a good relationship with Zhou Zhiqing's wife, do you know why Zhou Zhiqing came to us?"
"I haven't seen Comrade Youwei for a while, I don't know what happened!"
"Do you think we have any policies for educated youth..."
Just as everyone was whispering, Zhou Qing coughed slightly and spoke: "Everyone be quiet, the meeting is now in session!"
Hearing Zhou Yang's voice, everyone quickly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhou Yang.
"Comrades, the main reason why I called you here today is to ask for your opinions!"
Then Zhou Yang said again: "A printing factory has just been established on the Western Slope. Now a group of workers need to be temporarily seconded. They are required to be in good health and have a junior high school education or above..."
Before he finished speaking, Cui Jinjin asked immediately: "Zhou Zhiqing, just tell me how many people are needed over there, and I will just take them there!"
Zhou Yang shook his head and said: "At least a hundred people are needed, but the printing factory is not an industry in the village, so this time it can only be regarded as a secondment."
"After I go there, I will get a salary of one yuan and fifty cents a day, but my work points in the village will be gone. Who would want to go there!"
When they heard that the salary was one yuan and a half a day, everyone was excited and raised their hands to express their willingness to go!
Zhou Yang looked at Cui Jinjin and Liu Lu, and then said: "Qianjin, Liu Lu, you two will count the people who are willing to go over there now, and give them to me later, but if there are people with fixed positions in the village, forget it!"
"OK!"
With that said, the two people immediately took out pen and paper and started to register...
