So, at five o'clock on the morning of the third day, Zhang Yi got up and hurried to Zhou Tai City by himself, arriving at the job fair after it had started.

Since Zhou Tai City is an important manufacturing base in Jiangnan Province, there are many enterprises engaged in or related to manufacturing. After arriving at the scene, he found that there were at least several thousand enterprises in the entire venue, including large groups such as Ji Li Automobile Group, which also came to this job fair.

However, compared to the locations of these enterprises, the location of Zhang Yi's Seven Color Stone Mechanical Factory was in a corner of the entire venue, and the space was also very small.

But this was unavoidable; who told his enterprise that it had no reputation at all!

By the time Zhang Yi had set up the job fair site, it was already eight o'clock, and the gate of the job fair site was finally opened. The army of job seekers also entered the job fair site, and suddenly the entire scene became a sea of people.

However, they were basically heading towards those large enterprises or enterprises that were relatively well-known in the city.

An hour after the job fair started, someone finally came to the front of Zhang Yi's recruitment position. This was a middle-aged man around 40 years old, and judging by his appearance, he must have been engaged in the mechanical processing industry before.

Although this middle-aged man's clothes had been washed clean, there were still some oil stains on them.

"Hello! I am Zhang Yi, the boss of Seven Color Stone Mechanical Factory in Xian County. May I ask what this gentleman's name is?" Zhang Yi asked!

Although this applicant was different from other applicants, generally speaking, people who come to apply will have some personal information such as resumes in their hands, but this middle-aged man did not have a personal resume in his hand, but Zhang Yi did not look down on him.

"Hello! Boss Zhang! My name is Zhang Yang, and I am a machine tool operator. I currently have a Level 5 Turner certificate. May I ask about the treatment in your factory, Boss Zhang?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Hello! Master Zhang, our factory is in great need of turners, not to mention that you are a Level 5 Turner, Master Zhang. How about this! Master Zhang, our factory will give you 10,000 yuan a month first. If you perform well, Master Zhang, then our factory will give you at least 200,000 annual salary!

However, our Seven Color Stone Mechanical Factory is in Xian County. I wonder if Master Zhang has any problems." Zhang Yi replied.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yang said, "Okay! If you can give me the salary you mentioned, I have no problem. I have no requirements for where I work, but I hope your mechanical factory can provide accommodation."

"Okay!" Zhang Yi readily agreed.

Zhang Yi was very happy to be able to recruit a Level 5 Turner. Although there were many turners above Level 5 in Zhou Tai City, which is a manufacturing base, these turners were basically in those large companies and enterprises. It was a great fortune for a small factory like Zhang Yi's to be able to recruit one.

The good start made Zhang Yi very excited, so he prepared to make persistent efforts and recruit a few more talents, but the reality disappointed him greatly. He did not recruit anyone until noon.

In the morning's recruitment, there were very few people who actually applied for technical positions. They all wanted to apply for other positions, and the salaries these people demanded were also very high, or Zhang Yi simply didn't like them.

You know, Zhou Tai City is the manufacturing base of Jiangnan Province! It should not be difficult to recruit a few people according to reason, but when the applicants heard that they had to work in Xian County, a relatively backward mountainous area in Zhou Tai City, most of them shook their heads. Those who were willing to come did not meet Zhang Yi's requirements in terms of technology, or they simply did not know how to operate machine tools, or had never even touched a machine tool.

It was not until the afternoon that Zhang Yi barely recruited a few people, and these people were basically just out of technical schools. There was nothing he could do about it; who told his Seven Color Stone Mechanical Factory that it was not famous? However, Zhang Yi was already very happy to be able to recruit a Level 5 Turner like Zhang Yang today.

Of course, the number of people recruited was too far from what Zhang Yi had hoped for. Even these people, excluding administrative staff, were all just out of technical schools. They came because they saw that the salary in Zhang Yi's factory was relatively high. In fact, they could only complete some of the simplest processing.

So, after returning to the factory, he arranged accommodation for all the recruited people the next day, and Zhang Yi turned his attention to the system again.

Because he knew that it was impossible to recruit truly high-tech talents with the current scale of his factory and the location of Xian County, so in the end, he still had to hire from the Scholar Hiring System.

However, Zhang Yi could not afford to hire scholars from the Scholar Hiring System on a large scale at present. After all, hiring a scholar from the system costs at least 50 Scholar Coins, which is an annual salary of over 150,000, and this is still the lowest level of scholar. As for Red Alert Engineers, etc., they cost 100 Scholar Coins per year, which is an annual salary of over 300,000.

If all the funds in Zhang Yi's hands were converted into Scholar Coins, he would only have about 100 Scholar Coins, not even 150. If he hired a Red Alert Trainee Engineer, he could only hire one.

So Zhang Yi's idea now is to first hire Dwarf Junior Mechanical Scholars, but he has already hired one Dwarf Junior Scholar. If he hires too many Dwarves, it is very likely to arouse suspicion from outsiders.

Although there were various concerns, Zhang Yi still exchanged 100 Scholar Coins with the funds in his hand first, and immediately hired two more Dwarf Junior Scholars from the system. This time, he hired the cheapest junior scholars among the Dwarves, so 100 Scholar Coins were just enough to hire two Dwarf Junior Scholars.

Of course! These two Dwarf Junior Scholars were also female. The names of these two Dwarf Scholars were Xiao Liu and Xiao Xia. In order to cause less suspicion from the outside world, he asked Xiao Hua and the other three Dwarf scholars to call each other sisters, and told outsiders that they were three sisters.

After Zhang Yi hired these two scholars, he handed them all over to Xiao Hua to manage. After all, since they were all Dwarf scholars, it was definitely better to hand them over to Xiao Hua to manage than to others.

In fact, Zhang Yi also wanted to hire more powerful scholars. According to Xiao Hua, the ability of a scholar is equal to the Scholar Coins. Scholars with high ability have a high hiring price. For example, the difference in ability between a scholar with 50 Scholar Coins and a scholar with 100 Scholar Coins is not ordinary.

Three days after Zhang Yi hired these employees, the machine tools he ordered arrived.

Although these newly hired employees were mostly fresh out of school, Zhang Yi also discovered the advantages of these recent graduates: their learning ability was very strong, and their execution was also very high. Basically, they could execute well after being told just once, and if they didn't understand something, they would directly ask Zhang Yi and the others instead of pretending to understand. This also made Zhang Yi very pleased.

Of course, Zhang Yi's factory was still very short on staff. After all, his factory now covered an area of over 10,000 square meters, but the total number of employees was less than ten. However, Zhang Yi still wanted to build the basic personnel framework for the factory.

At the same time, he also posted recruitment information online. Although Zhang Yi didn't have high expectations for recruiting online, the current situation at the factory was that every person hired was a bonus, and what if they could recruit a real talent?

Zhang Yi ordered about ten machine tools this time, so it took a full day for these machine tools to be installed. However, these ten or so machine tools were too few compared to the huge factory building of over 10,000 square meters.

They only occupied a very small area in one workshop. Zhang Yi knew that this was only temporary. Zhang Yi believed that with the existence of the Scholar Hiring System, his factory would definitely become the largest mechanical factory in the entire Xian County in the future. He was absolutely full of confidence in the future of the factory.
