The training of sailors and crew members cannot be done in a short period of time. It just so happens that they have to stay to build South Island, and there is still time, and it is just right to hand this matter over to Wan Houyu, after all, he is responsible for these things.
After giving the order, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao thought about it and decided that there didn't seem to be anything else to do in the city, so they boarded the boat and set off. Xiaoman naturally followed them.
When the three arrived at the island, they found that it was already quite popular because people were transported there by boat and each family was registered with a special person at the beach.
The conditions for the relocation of the people from Yucheng had already been negotiated. Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao had already planned a living area on the island. They just needed to bring the people to that area and arrange for everyone to do what they were supposed to do.
The first people to come here will be settled first. In the future, these people will live in the main urban area. There is no other way, first come first served. It is right for these first immigrants to enjoy better treatment.
Xiaoman looked at so many people, walked over to the people who were registering and took a look, and found that the registration was very detailed, with names, genders, ages, expertise, and where they were assigned.
Because there were so many people, there were also many people registering. After getting off the boat, the whole family lined up and would be led to the area where they registered by the person behind them.
Xiaoman picked up the used registration books and found some very good talents in them: "Sister, Dongchen is quite good at selecting people. There are candidates from all walks of life in here. Look at this, it can also be printed. I want this person. I'll go take a look first."
Qian Jiujiu felt that Xiaoman was interested in talents and couldn't help but laugh: "Why don't you find a few more professional printers? They will definitely be faster than the current ones. Let's find some people here and recruit the staff for the printing factory first."
Xiaoman nodded. Both of them had good memories. They could not say that they remembered everything they saw, but they were almost there. He took the book with the records and started looking for it.
Sure enough, he soon discovered several talents and decided to look for them: "These five people were the first ones we valued, so we can say that we have a good eye for them."
Mu Yexiao looked at the two people talking excitedly and couldn't help but laugh: "Have you ever thought of using a notice?"
Notice? Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao and asked, "Can you tell me more about it?"
Mu Yexiao did not hide anything and said it directly: "We will use notices to inform these people. We now need a group of people who can print. These people will come to our door on their own."
Qian Jiujiu understood instantly: "You mean recruitment. Yes, why didn't I think of that? My husband is very capable. I will go write the notice now."
Xiaoman also gave Mu Yexiao a thumbs up: "Brother-in-law is awesome, this is better than us looking for them one by one."
They went to look for them at their doorsteps, but those people lived in scattered places, which was a waste of time. It was better to let those people come to their doorsteps, and Qian Jiujiu's notice came out quickly, and the location was set at the printing factory.
The printing factory is in a previously built house. Qian Jiujiu specially prepared a room for it, and then she, Xiaoman, and Mu Yexiao sat in the room, waiting for people who had read the notice to come.
As soon as the notice was posted, it caused quite a stir. These people had just arrived here, and after registering, they were allocated houses and land according to the previously written house deeds and land deeds.
It's just that it's not spring, the season for planting, so even if we get the land, we can't plant it now. We still have to find something to do, so when the notice came out, everyone gathered around it instantly.
Some people who can't read looked around curiously and said, "Read it quickly, what's written on it?"
Someone who could read began to read: "They are recruiting people who can print. Those who can print should go to the printing factory to sign up."
The printing factory is hiring people. These people are all new here. Even if they want to do business, they can't do it so quickly. So now the only job they can find is printing. Some people are anxious: "What about those who don't know how to print?"
There was a soldier standing guard next to the notice: "Don't worry, we are looking for someone who can print now, just because the printing factory is very anxious. People from all walks of life on our island are needed. The notice will come out slowly, so you don't have to worry."
"Besides, weren't you all given seven days' rations when you boarded the ship? We will arrange jobs for you within seven days. If you still don't have a job by then, come find us."
After hearing this, the crowd finally quieted down. The soldier looked at these people and said, "Those who know how to print, hurry up and go to the printing factory to sign up. The prince, princess, and county lady will personally select you. Seize the opportunity and go quickly."
They could actually see the prince and princess. Those who knew how to print, or had worked in a printing factory, immediately ran towards the printing factory.
Next to the notice was a map of the route to the printing factory, which was very simple, so everyone knew that there were guards at the entrance of the printing factory. Now they were still soldiers, and they would be released back to the army when more manpower was available.
The soldier was shocked at first when he saw so many people rushing over: "What are you doing?"
The first person to arrive was running out of breath and said, "Aren't they hiring? I can print, and I'm here to sign up."
The soldier heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that all these people were here to sign up. "Okay, then you go in. The people behind you will line up and go in one by one after he comes out."
When the man heard that he could be the first to go, he felt happy and nervous at the same time. However, he had already come this far and giving up was impossible, so he just put all his energy into it and went in.
The soldier pointed to the room next to him and said, "Go to that room. It's inside."
For convenience, the room chosen by Qian Jiujiu and others was right at the door. Xiao Shan looked at the door and encouraged himself in his heart. He used to run a printing factory, and this was his chance.
After calming down, he walked into the room and said, "I pay my respects to the prince, the princess, and the county lady."
As soon as we entered, there were three people sitting inside, Qian Jiujiu sat in the middle, Xiaoman on the left, and Mu Yexiao on the right.
Qian Jiujiu had never thought in her life that when she arrived in another world, she could set up a weird recruitment event and invite people to apply. She couldn't help but feel happy.
"Stand up. Don't be nervous. Start introducing yourself."
Xiao Shan calmed down his emotions again after hearing this. After all, he was very excited to see the legendary person. Qian Jiujiu and others could see it, so their faces were relatively good.
"My name is Xiaoshan. When I was in Yucheng, my family opened a printing workshop. This is my previous introduction."
Xiao Shan took out a list of assets, with which he could receive a considerable amount of silver when he arrived here. This was also one of the reasons why these people were asked to relocate.
Qian Jiujiu and Xiao Man looked at each other. They didn't expect to catch a big fish the first time they came in. They looked at Xiao Shan and said, "Tell me, how was your previous printing workshop business?"
The printing workshop in Xiaoshan was one of the largest printing workshops in Yucheng. Most of the books in Yucheng were printed in Xiaoshan’s workshop, and Xiaoshan also opened a bookstore, which was considered a very capable person.
It can be said that the first batch of people who came here were all very foresighted and capable. Qian Jiujiu was very satisfied that such a talent like Xiaoshan could come out.
"Very good, you go back and wait for the news. I will send someone to inform you when there is news. We also need to meet those people outside before we talk."
Xiao Shan nodded: "Most of those people outside are my former associates. After the Xiao family's printing workshop was closed this time, they moved along with it."
Qian Jiujiu nodded, let Xiao Shan go out, and then the next person came in. Coincidentally, this person was really Xiao Shan's former buddy as Xiao Shan said.
Later, more people came in. Qian Jiujiu asked their names and their future plans, and then he found that no one here was as capable as Xiaoshan. After some investigation, Qian Jiujiu discussed with Xiaoman and decided to hand over the printing factory to Xiaoshan for management.
After all, most of the people who came in after them actually moved here with Xiaoshan, which shows that Xiaoshan is capable and responsible, otherwise, if he moved, there would not be so many people following him.
Xiao Shan was invited over again. Qian Jiujiu and Xiao Man did not speak, and Mu Yexiao spoke up: "It's like this, Xiao Shan, what do you want to do in the printing factory?"
Although I have asked before, I still need to confirm it. Xiaoshan is also very courageous: "I want to be a manager. After all, I am good at managing printing factories."
Mu Yexiao nodded and glanced at Xiaoman. There was a lot to say, so Xiaoman spoke up: "After a series of comprehensive considerations, we have also found that you are the most talented person in the printing industry so far, so the position of director of the printing factory can be given to you. From now on, the printing factory will be handed over to you to manage."
"The content of the printing factory is also very simple. It is to print books. Samples will be sent to you in due time. I hope you will not make any mistakes. This is related to the education of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The printing factory here uses movable type printing."
"I will have someone teach you when the time comes. Right now, the island is in ruins and you are here at the perfect time. Are you up to the task?"
Having said so much, it still depends on Xiao Shan himself. Xiao Shan did not expect that he would be able to hold such an important position as soon as he arrived, so he was naturally excited: "Don't worry, County Lord, I will definitely manage the printing factory well."
