Chapter 36: Million Annual Salary, Working Nine to Five!

Instead of diminishing the popularity of Yan Guo Nation's cruise, the clarifying statements from the industry's leading companies only served to intensify it further.

After three months of meticulous preparation on Chen Yang's part, and with the launch of the cruises, the expression "money is no object" became completely attached to Yan Guo.

This realization took deep root in everyone's minds.

Now, when talking about the Yan Guo country, everyone's first reaction is: "that new country that has the insane support of a financial conglomerate!"

And while this issue was fervently discussed, another news related to Yan Guo came to the public's attention.

Job vacancies in Yan Guo!

During the live broadcast, Chen Yang only briefly mentioned the vacancies without going into much detail.

The base salary of 690 dollars per month in factories and companies did not interest most people.

The real focus was on the unemployed in all countries.

However, some of the unemployed people had very high expectations of Yan Guo.

They believed that in order to attract people, Yan Guo Nation would certainly offer high salaries.

But the salary was only 690 dollars.

It was very low, which made them angry and felt like they were being deceived.

Someone directly spread the recruitment information from Yan Guo's website online, surprising many people to discover that a base salary of 690 dollars was just the most common salary in the factory.

#Salaries for the three main national sectors announced, monthly salary reaches 1,104 dollars, working hours from nine to five and weekends off#

At the factory, there are vacancies for common workers, machine operators, cutters, drillers, finishers, painters, repairmen, packers, quality inspectors... Salaries range from 690 to 1,104 dollars.

For production supervisors, forklift operators, human resources assistants, furniture designers, decoration designers, plan designers... Salaries range from 1,104 to 2,761 dollars.

And in all positions, there are 13 salaries per year, a nine-to-five schedule and weekends off, with food and accommodation provided, no trial period.

After three months of work, two round-trip travel allowances to and from the hometown are provided per year.

The salary threshold in camp is a little higher, with a base salary of $690 and a maximum salary of $2,071.

Because farms are all production line operations, from disease prevention to pig slaughter, there is no need for many technical experts.

Planting positions have relatively high salaries, especially for planting vegetables and grains, with a base salary of 1,380 dollars, as mentioned by Chen Yang.

However, the requirements are higher than other positions, with a maximum age of 40 and at least 10 years of experience growing crops.

Basically, they are looking for farmers.

Although seeds and fertilizer ingredients can be purchased from the system, and there are several types of row planting and harvesting machines.

However, in daily care, it is necessary for someone to take care of it carefully.

Furthermore, the size of the farm needs to be expanded later, which requires experienced commanders.

Many people look down on farmers, but when it comes to growing food, farmers are absolutely divine.

Of course, there is an important reason for offering such high salaries.

Most farmers in other countries have almost zero chance of migrating for work.

To attract candidates, the salary was more than they imagined.

1,380 seems like a lot, but in reality the attraction power is not that great.

But the base value is there, coupled with Chen Yang's fame and the limited number of recruiters for the industry, it is not difficult to recruit.

Furthermore, workers in many countries don't really make much money.

Everyone has hard times, so are all workers well off?

In addition to these two sectors, the most profitable is fishing.

A fishing boat is configured to have 15 people: a captain, a mate, a first officer and a second officer, and eleven fishermen.

An ordinary fisherman has a base salary of up to 2,071 dollars, the captain receives 11,046 dollars per month and the boat goes out to sea 5 times a month, each trip not exceeding three days.

And if the boat needs to leave more than five times, due to a lack of crew, the extra trips need to be compensated.

And it's not paid for free: after completing the five basic monthly fishing trips, each extra trip grants a bonus of 414 dollars.

In ordinary shipping companies, it is very rare to find a captain with an annual salary of 69,040 dollars; most captains earn between 2,761 and 4,142 dollars per month.

Captains of cruise ships and motor carriers generally have higher salaries, while captains of fishing boats generally have lower salaries.

Furthermore, the requirements to be a fishing boat captain are high: you need to have a license, experience and be able to mediate conflicts between crew members.

So, not everyone can receive this monthly salary of 11,046 dollars.

Chen Yang originally intended to set the salary at 6,904 dollars, but he was worried that it would be too little and no one would want to come, after all, it was to go to another country.

Furthermore, although the sea areas near Yan Guo Country are considered coastal waters for Yan Guo Country, in relation to other countries, they are considered international waters.

Who knows what's in these sea areas?

"11,046 dollars for the captain, how jealous!"

"I'm jealous, but you need to have a license, and that license isn't easy to get."

"Whoever gets this job doesn't need to go to Yan Guo Country, right?"

"Idiot, this is a position with an annual salary of millions of dollars, and pay attention at the end, the first year exempt from personal income tax, these 11,046 dollars go straight into your pocket!"

"Not many fishing boat captains earn that much, $11,046 is a very high salary."

"I have a feeling that fishing positions in Yan Guo Country are going to be hotly contested."

"It's definitely going to be crazy, this treatment is much better than in my country, it's like competing on a different level, the key is that there are no intermediaries taking your share and you don't have to pay taxes, that alone is enough to surpass the shipping companies in my country!"
