Chapter 173 How is the company?

An Jianguo's question initially silenced the villagers, but then they began to discuss it amongst themselves.

Yes, they've worked hard their whole lives, why can't they enjoy themselves?

However, from their youth until now, they have never truly enjoyed life.

Now that they are truly allowed to enjoy themselves, how should they do so?

What will we enjoy?

Most people present couldn't understand this.

But they all knew that things like gambling, which bring short-term pleasure, were definitely not among the things to enjoy.

Suddenly, everyone in the room, young and old, began to think deeply, a rare occurrence for them.

After an unknown amount of time, An Songyu and his group emerged from the crowd.

The brothers and sisters, along with some acquaintances, got together.

From not far away, someone persistently asked, "So, how are Jianguo and your companies doing now?"

An Songyu turned around when she heard the sound.

Seeing this, Sister Yun, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh.

She looked around before speaking softly:

"Do you know why he was so persistent in asking about it?"

An Songyu and the others shook their heads in confusion.

"He's from the Happiness Garden area. He saw that you guys were so busy with renovation work that he got envious!"

"If they want to do it, why don't they just do it themselves?" An Songxiang still couldn't quite understand.

After all, their family started by renovating their own house.

Sister-in-law Yun shook her head, amused: "It's not that simple!"

As she spoke, she looked at An Songyu. What truly attracted the people of Jiangcun to An's decoration company was not just its ability to renovate.

It's not about the effect of the renovation, but the final result.

The reason for this effect is naturally because Anjia was able to find a designer.

As for them...

Sister-in-law Yun's gaze returned to that person.

The man was still waiting for An Jianguo's reply.

Although the interior design company did not belong to An Jianguo, the people of Jiangcun were not particularly aware of it.

Apart from that, compared to the other three brothers.

An Jianguo was the person who lived in Jiangcun the longest and was the person they knew best.

“As I just said, the reason we brothers started this company was simply to have something to do.” An Jianguo looked thoughtfully at the person who spoke, as well as several other people in the crowd.

The person who had spoken earlier seemed somewhat skeptical, and after a long pause, he said, half-jokingly and half-seriously:

"Jianguo, Uncle Wenlin just praised you so much, are you still going to keep this a secret from us?"

"Why would I need to lie to you?" An Jianguo said irritably.

"Besides, how can our little, run-down companies compare to those in the village?" An Jianguo said without a trace of modesty, continuing:

"The village collective's company is determined to develop well."

"You guys probably haven't been paying attention!"

"Didn't you hear how much manpower, resources, and money the village collective enterprise invested from beginning to end?"

"Now, the village's collective enterprise has about ten large trucks."

"And that doesn't even include the fact that each large truck needs at least one or two drivers."

"In addition, we also specially hired experienced managers from outside to come over."

"Take another look at what our little company has to offer?"

"Are there a few of us brothers who are novices?"

"Or did you invest over a million?"

"Or is there still a large group of workers?"

"Of course there's a huge number of workers!" Someone in the crowd, who knew about the An family's situation, joined in the commotion.

However, the people of Jiangcun didn't take it too seriously.

After all, if you include the workers who are decorating at Xingfu Jiayuan and the workers who are building those self-built houses, then...

There were indeed a large number of workers.

However, the difference between these workers and those from freight companies is quite clear to everyone.

The person who kept asking was somewhat unwilling to give up.

But before he could ask any more questions, some people in the crowd began to get impatient:

"Everyone in Jiangcun knows that even when we're chasing after them to do work, they're always unwilling."

"If the company built here by Jiangguo really grows and prospers in the future, remember to remember the kindness of us Jiangcun people."

“If we hadn’t been pushing you to hire people, to renovate, and to build houses.”

"I bet you guys started a company just to use it for your own company's work!"

"Exactly! Now that the company's open, how can they possibly keep it hidden away for personal enjoyment? When are they going to renovate my house?!"

"And what about my family's homestead? We've been looking for it for so long, but there's still no sign of it!"

"I also signed up, why haven't I been scheduled yet?"

The topic quickly turned into urging them to get work done.

An Jianguo's usually eloquent language skills suddenly became ineffective.

Seeing him sit down in the crowd, it seemed he was trying to avoid facing the situation.

The people of Jiangcun became increasingly excited.

"It seems your family's company really needs to be run properly!" Sister Yun couldn't help but laugh as she looked at all this.

An Songyu shrugged helplessly.

They've done everything they could.

Nowadays, the newly recruited construction and decoration workers in the company are no longer mainly from local rural areas.

To be honest, the locals still have a lot of advantages.

Those who are truly willing to become construction and decoration workers are, after all, still a minority.

However, managing people recruited from outside is not so easy.

An Songyu's family is currently facing a severe shortage of manpower.

The plan is to first cultivate trustworthy managers after the start of next year.

However, An Songyu naturally couldn't directly reveal these internal company matters.

She smiled along with her sister-in-law Yun and joined in watching her uncle's antics.

An Songyu hadn't expected that after watching the spectacle for only a short while, this matter would fall on her again.

When someone from the village committee came to call her, she was still looking in the crowd to see if An Jianping and his brothers were among them.

As it turned out, An Songyu only discovered this after she arrived.

All of An Jianping's brothers were present and sat together with the village committee members.

In addition, there are some elders from the An family and the Jiang family, as well as the middle-aged and young generations who are clearly being seriously cultivated.

The food stalls were built on a sizable lotus pond.

Extending into the middle of the lotus pond, the largest private room was filled with people.

Everyone saw An Songyu come in.

Some were surprised, some disagreed, and some found it completely unsurprising.

But some people asked, "Jianping, Jianguo, are you sure you really want Ayu to be in charge of such a big matter?"

It wasn't that he didn't believe in An Songyu's abilities.

It was a young girl.

Taking on these responsibilities would be extremely difficult.

An Jianguo put down his teacup with a hint of helplessness.

"It's not that we brothers wanted to, but we really had no other choice!"

At this point, everyone present couldn't help but sigh, thinking about their family's situation.

There are many things about this place that they envy.

However, the lack of successors is indeed a source of frustration.
