Chapter 252: The Impact of the Farm on Yucheng
Chapter 252: The Impact of the Farm on Yucheng
Yucheng suddenly became very bustling.
Originally, the public examination dates were set by the state, usually at a unified time.
However, this wasn't always the case. When there was a development need in a region, temporary recruitment could be applied for.
Naturally, such applications were subject to strict scrutiny. It wasn't as simple as just wanting to add someone and immediately holding a public examination.
Since the big shot took office, such practices have been largely eliminated.
However, if the recruitment was genuinely for development needs, such applications were often easily approved. After all, economic development was the top priority.
So, when Yucheng suddenly announced a large-scale public examination recruitment, it caused a stir within a small circle.
After all, many people aspired to this path, but with only a few spots available each year, not everyone could be admitted.
Some people had even taken the exam for several years without success.
Now, with this news, many people were excited. Large-scale recruitment meant a significantly higher chance of success.
Many were already eager to give it a try.
Naturally, this news was intentionally leaked by Liu County. The application had only just been sent to the provincial level.
But he was confident that the provincial level wouldn't refuse it, especially since he had used his connections. Thus, the approval would come quickly.
By spreading the news first, they could allow those interested to prepare in advance.
As Liu County had anticipated, their application was swiftly approved, allowing for an expansion in recruitment.
The county wasted no time and promptly announced the public examination dates.
This naturally allowed those eager to participate to receive the news immediately.
Zheng Lin was one of them.
He wasn't a graduate from a prestigious university, just a second-tier college graduate.
In a big city, he had no competitive edge and no special skills, so returning home to take the public examination was a good option.
However, after failing twice in a row, he had almost given up hope.
From what he knew, many with lower scores than him had been admitted.
The term "network society" had also entered his ears.
Most of those admitted had connections in the county.
So, he had given up on this path.
But this time, the county's expansion in recruitment gave him a glimmer of hope. After all, they were hiring so many people that it couldn't all be based on connections.
"Zheng Lin, don't worry. I've found out for you," his friend said with a smile. "This time, the county is expanding recruitment because of Liyuan Farm. They seem to have launched a major project, causing a shortage of personnel."
"Actually, many departments in the county were already understaffed before. You know, Yucheng has developed well this year."
Zheng Lin nodded and said, "Indeed, it's all thanks to Liyuan Farm."
His friend continued, "That's right. This time, it's because of a new project at Liyuan Farm that the county has to expand recruitment."
"Moreover, a project big enough to require an expansion in recruitment must be significant. So, don't worry. As long as your scores are good, you'll definitely be selected."
Hearing this news, Zheng Lin was very happy.
Sometimes, success in a venture depends on luck.
Now, it seemed his luck had arrived.
This might be the turning point in his life.
So, when the examination date arrived, he was the first to go to the county's public examination venue.
Here, he found many familiar faces, some of whom had taken the exam with him the previous two times, and others he had met at gatherings in his group.
Everyone was on the path to becoming a civil servant, hoping to secure a position.
However, such opportunities were very rare and didn't always depend on one's scores.
Therefore, many people had given up.
Now, these people had returned, hoping to seize this new opportunity.
Such a chance might not come again after this.
This time, Zheng Lin felt he performed exceptionally well in the exam. If the selection was based solely on scores, he was certain he would be accepted.
What he didn't expect was that by the evening of the same day, he received a notification that he had passed the written examination.
He couldn't believe it. Normally, the entire process would take at least half a month before any notification was sent.
The fact that the results came out so quickly indicated that the county was in a hurry.
Indeed, many things moved much faster once the formalities were bypassed and the focus was on the main goal.
"Great," Zheng Lin exclaimed, clenching his fist and bowing in the direction of Liyuan Farm. "Thank you, Liyuan Farm."
This was sincere. If he passed the interview this time, it would be entirely due to Liyuan Farm's influence.
The next day, Zheng Lin was the first to head to the county for the interview.
He had spent the entire night preparing, looking up many common questions for civil service exams online and memorizing them, determined to perform well.
However, when the interview began, he was surprised to find that none of the questions were the ones he had memorized. Instead, they were all about Liyuan Farm, from its impact on Yucheng to how it stimulated the local economy.
They also asked for his thoughts on Liyuan Farm's future development.
All the questions were related to Liyuan Farm.
This confirmed his belief that the expanded recruitment was indeed due to Liyuan Farm.
It wasn't just him; everyone who participated in the exam understood this after the interview.
Liyuan Farm was truly impressive, directly influencing a major decision for the entire Yucheng.
After the interviews concluded, Liu County quickly received the results in his office.
With this, the selected candidates could immediately start their internships and become valuable assets.
This would ensure there was no shortage of personnel in the future.
After reviewing the interview results, he immediately looked at the project proposal on his computer.
This was the document he needed to present to the wealthy investors. After reviewing it several times and confirming there were no issues, he promptly sent the project proposal to the publicity department and called them. "Review this project proposal as quickly as possible and then create a tender advertisement."
"Understood, County Chief Liu," the person from the publicity department responded immediately.
Not long after, Liu County led a group to the Mineral Spring Wellness Center.
The billboard that had just been put up was quickly dismantled by his team, and a new one was erected in its place.
The wealthy investors at the Mineral Spring Wellness Center watched this scene with puzzled expressions.
What was happening in Yucheng?
If they were trying to attract investment, why had they just put up a billboard and then immediately taken it down?
Especially those who had been considering investing in Yucheng found this behavior unreliable.
After all, it seemed like the decisions were being made haphazardly.
