From the History of the Republic of China to Raising Children in the 1970s

"Why? Are you so concerned about recruiting?" Li Chengye felt that Hu Liren seemed to be too concerned. He was not the kind of person who usually paid attention to these things.

"Hehe, my current partner is just a temporary worker, so I was thinking about whether I could find her a job in our factory so that the two of them could spend more time together." He felt relatively good about the person he was dating now, and he had already planned to get married next year, so naturally he wanted to spend more time together.

"Planning to get married next year?" This was indeed a person in love.

Hu Liren nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be during May Day." They planned to get engaged after the New Year and get married later.

"That's not bad. You should get married at this age."

"Hehe." Hu Liren laughed proudly.

"Okay, I know. I will tell you as soon as I have news. But most of the people they recruit will be men. Most of the jobs in the workshop are heavy physical labor. There won't be many supporting clerical staff. Your partner should be a high school student, right?" Although they have a good relationship, Li Chengye still told the truth.

"I know this, but it is really hard to find a job now. We can only try first." Hu Liren was also a little helpless. If his partner followed the general situation, he would also have to go to the countryside. But his family made preparations in advance and moved her household registration to the countryside when she was a child. Although she has always lived in the city, her household registration is actually in the countryside.

However, her family was well-off and was not afraid of not being able to support this girl. They let her go all the way to high school and arranged a temporary job for her after graduation. In addition, this girl was pretty, had a good character, and was not timid at all. So the Hu family was very satisfied with her. Now all she needed was a formal job.

"Oh, by the way, isn't the New Year coming soon? Our guild has organized some shows. It is planned to be performed for five days from the 20th to the 25th of Lunar New Year. The performance time is 7pm. The venue is in the auditorium of our factory. You can also bring your aunt and Xiaoxi and Xiaobei to have a look."

"Okay, I'll bring them to see it when I have time." This is also a rare activity in this era. There are no dance halls that were common in S City in that era, so there are naturally not many entertainment activities.

"Then I won't bother you. You just came back, so you should go home earlier!" Hu Liren was naturally very considerate and didn't plan to take up too much of Li Chengye's time.

"Okay, I'll take you there." Li Chengye didn't try to stop him and sent him directly to the door.

Time goes by day by day, and it is getting closer and closer to the New Year. If it were previous years, people would definitely talk about how much meat your family bought and how much New Year goods his family prepared. But this year is different. More people are concerned about the construction of the new factory and the arrival of new equipment.

You know, only when the factory gets better and better, everyone's life will be better. In addition, the news of recruitment has attracted everyone's attention. Who doesn't have young people of the right age in their family? There is no one who lacks work in their family. Even if there is no one in your own family, there must be one in the families of relatives and friends. Naturally, someone spread the news everywhere, and more people paid attention to the steel plant. It can be imagined that there will be no shortage of people coming to the steel plant to participate in the recruitment meeting.

Besides, everyone is enthusiastic about work now. Although the New Year is coming soon, not many people are slacking off. Most of them are working very hard. They will be able to use the new equipment soon after the New Year.
