Chapter 121 Became the Stable Manager

Previously, none of them had thought about it in detail; they just felt that it was only right for the brigade headquarters to give Black Wind special treatment, after all, it was the warhorse that Captain Wei Zhongping's grandfather had raised in the army. But after Bai Nuo said this, they actually felt that it made sense.

Black Wind saved many people back then. He was a true hero who had been on the battlefield and received military merit medals. Naturally, he deserved everyone's respect.

Bai Nuo chatted briefly with Tie Jinhua, then sent Hei Feng's family back to the stable. However, before Hei Dian could even go inside, Grandpa Zhao, who heard the commotion, took him back to another stable. Starting today, Hei Dian was officially assigned to stable number two, where he was to be bred with another stallion.

After settling Hei Feng's family in, Bai Nuo went to find the clerk. A few minutes later, she officially became the manager of Stable No. 1, and the brigade headquarters even issued her a work permit.

I must say, it looks quite formal.

From then on, her daily work points became a fixed seven points. If she brought back two baskets of hay when she had nothing to do, she would earn more work points each day than most of the other women.

Actually, only some female educated youth from the city disliked this job, thinking that the smells were unpleasant, but there were still quite a few people in the brigade who wanted to join the animal husbandry team.

Becoming a pen manager would mean more work points, less work, and an easier job, but unfortunately, not just anyone can join the breeding team.

The brigade attaches great importance to the breeding team. Both the brigade leader and Tie Jinhua emphasize scientific feeding. They regularly go to find medicine to disinfect each pen. They are also very particular about the feed. The chickens, ducks, geese and pigs in the brigade are better raised than those in other brigades and rarely get sick.

Therefore, anyone who wants to work in the animal husbandry team must take an exam and be assessed. Bai Nuo was the only one who made a contribution this time. Moreover, her information stated that she was a high school graduate, an educated person from the city, and that she didn't mind that the stables and horses were dirty. That's why she was exempted from the exam. Originally, they just wanted her to take a job walking the horses, and they didn't expect her to be willing to be the manager.

Unexpectedly, in just half a day, the girl took the initiative to take on the job of the administrator, and her attitude towards Hei Feng was obviously different. Both Tie Jinhua and the captain felt at ease entrusting Hei Feng's family to her care.

And so, on his second day of work, Bai Nuo became a formal employee within the brigade. Although it didn't have the same salary and benefits as jobs in the city, it was much better than working in the fields.

After getting her work permit and key, Bai Nuo went to the small storage room of the animal husbandry team and got a toolbox, which was a wooden box with a shoulder strap and contained various common tools.

There's a wooden shelf inside the stable specifically for storing things. Getting a toolbox will make repairs much easier, saving me the trouble of having to apply for tools again.

The sole administrator of this horse pen also has some minor privileges, although... she's all alone.

Oh, right, she also has four horses under her command.

In the afternoon, Bai Nuo carried a large wooden basin to collect four portions of horse feed. He then went to the backyard of the feeding team, chopped the feed into pieces with a chaff cutter, put the chopped feed into a large wooden basin, and carried the basin back to the stable.

"Uncle Black Wind, you all eat while I clean your house." Bai Nuo distributed the hay into the various wooden troughs, then picked up a large broom and began cleaning the stables. Finally, he carried the large wooden basin to the backyard, washed it clean, and placed it against the backyard wall. He could pick it up early tomorrow morning; it would be difficult to dry it if it was wet.

By the time all the work was finished, it was only 4:30 in the afternoon.

"Hehe, off work!"

With one hand on his hip and the other holding a large broom, Bai Nuo looked at the clean stables. This was much more fulfilling than scattering seeds and planting crops every day.

She had never done these kinds of jobs before.

"Uncle Black Wind, Jujube, White Cloud, Little Pony, I'm going home now. See you tomorrow morning." Bai Nuo waved goodbye to the Black Wind family of four before leaving get off work, which made Grandpa Zhao next to her chuckle.

This girl is really interesting. It's the first time he's ever seen a young girl treat the horses in their feeding team as equals, and even remembers to say hello to Black Wind and the others before locking the door after work.

To Mr. Zhao's surprise, a few horse neighs actually came from inside.

"How magnificent!"

"How magnificent, how magnificent!"

"Hehe, see you later, see you later."

Bai Nuo watched with a smile as he walked out of the stable, closed the gate, and locked it.

"Uncle Zhao, you're done with your work too?" Bai Nuo turned around and saw Uncle Zhao standing in front of the cowshed, greeting him with a smile.

"Just finished working. I heard you took over the job of managing the stables for Black Wind and his family. That's great! Do a good job from now on. Black Wind and his family are quite easy to take care of."

"Yes, I know. Don't worry, Uncle Zhao. As a sent-down youth, I will definitely not hold our brigade back." Bai Nuo stood tall and straight, looking as serious as if he were about to join the Party.

Little did she know, the work in the stable was as if it didn't exist in her hands. When Bai Nuo took over the stable, it was only so that she could openly slack off.

Still no time to check for typos and grammatical errors, I'll keep saving them up with tears in my eyes and check them all together later, sob sob!
