In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.

He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...

Chapter 393 Job Fair in Shanghai

One of the meeting rooms was where Guo Fengsheng was in charge of recruitment for Mixue Ice Cream and Wallace.

Across the street, at the hotel, Lin Cuilan was in charge of recruiting staff for Suzhou embroidery.

There was a sign at the hotel entrance, and hotel staff inside were also helping job applicants find their way.

Lin Yifeng originally wanted to go and check on Guo Fengsheng first.

But the recruitment efforts of Mixue Ice Cream and Wallace far exceeded his expectations, with crowds thronging the area outside the door.

Lin Yifeng made a rough estimate and figured there were at least fifty or sixty people standing outside the hotel, though he didn't know how many were inside.

As one of the major cities in China, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, countless people come here to work every year. Moreover, now that half of 1993 has passed, many people are thinking of taking advantage of the end of this year to find a good job and then go back to celebrate the Spring Festival happily.

Lin Yifeng originally wanted to go into the hotel to see Guo Fengsheng, but the hotel staff refused to let him in no matter what.

Even though Lin Yifeng explained that he was the person in charge here, the hotel staff still believed that Lin Yifeng was just making an excuse to cut in line.

In the past two days, he has seen many people sneaking in and cutting in line under various outrageous excuses, and Guo Fengsheng has complained about this many times.

As someone who can book a hotel conference room for a week, the hotel must give Guo Fengsheng, such a big client, a lot of face.

Lin Yifeng never expected that his attempt to see Guo Fengsheng would be blocked at the door.

The main reason is that Lin Yifeng was dressed casually and didn't look like someone with any money, so the hotel staff had no reason to let him in.

Seeing that Guo Fengsheng was so busy, Lin Yifeng was too lazy to bother him. Instead, he went to check on Lin Cuilan, who was in a less crowded area across the street.

When Lin Yifeng arrived at the hotel corridor, he was also startled.

Just as there were quite a few Mixue Ice Cream and Wallace on the other side, the same was true for Su Xiu's side.

There weren't many people outside, but there were quite a few corridors inside the hotel.

After walking up the stairs from the first floor to the second floor, there were many tall women at the entrance of the corridor, each with an excellent figure and exquisite makeup.

They were also somewhat surprised when they saw Lin Yifeng, and they all blinked and looked at him with suspicion.

Originally, everyone thought Lin Yifeng was a hotel guest.

However, they saw Lin Yifeng walk straight towards the recruitment office.

Lin Yifeng had barely stepped into the house when the hallway erupted in chaos.

"Does Suzhou embroidery even hire men? I remember the requirements were that they only hire women aged 18 to 30, right?"

"I don't know. Maybe he went to the wrong place. Wallace is on the other side."

"He's quite handsome, I like him, and it wouldn't be a bad idea if we could work together."

Outside, many girls were whispering to each other.

When they entered the house, the girls who were waiting there also looked puzzled.

One of the women, a rather dashing-looking woman with short hair, immediately stopped Lin Yifeng. She looked him up and down, then frowned slightly and gave him a warning.

"Handsome, you must have gone to the wrong place."

"This is the job application for Suzhou embroidery."

"Mixue Ice Cream and Wallace are on the opposite side."

Lin Yifeng was slightly taken aback.

The short-haired woman looked at Lin Yifeng with even more curiosity, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she patiently explained.

"There's a queue outside the hotel across the street. You can wait for two hours; there might be fewer people there."

"Our work here is mainly done by women."

"Excuse me."

Lin Yifeng turned around and looked at the girl carefully, his eyes lighting up.

Unlike many of the girls applying for jobs outside, this girl had short, ear-length hair, which was not common in this era. In particular, her youthful face and bright, piercing eyebrows made her look quite like the Hong Kong star Anita Yuen at the time.

You could say she's the kind of person who's very attractive and easily recognizable in a crowd.

"Wait, turn around and take a look."

Lin Yifeng stroked his chin and whispered his instructions.

The short-haired woman looked somewhat surprised, turned her back to Lin Yifeng, and her expression still held a hint of doubt. She didn't quite understand what Lin Yifeng wanted to do.

However, once Lin Yifeng spoke, she instinctively didn't dare to refuse.

"Take a turn around and take a look."

The short-haired girl followed the instructions and turned around.

Lin Yifeng frowned slightly as he looked at her.

"good."

"It's just a little small."

"But it's okay, we can use these as padding."

The room fell silent.

The other girls waiting inside looked at Lin Yifeng with incredulous expressions.

Only then did the short-haired girl realize what Lin Yifeng meant. Her face quickly turned red, and she stared intently at Lin Yifeng, so angry that she didn't know what to say.

However, she was well-mannered and did not immediately start cursing; she simply reprimanded him in a soft voice.

"Sir, as a man, isn't it a bit offensive of you to say that?"

Lin Yifeng ignored him and continued asking questions.

"name."

"Sir, I need your comments on what you just said..."

"Tsk, I'm asking for your name."

"Susie".

"Su... Qian with the grass radical?"

“Um, sir, I don’t know what you want to do, but…”

Just as Susie was about to argue with Lin Yifeng again, Lin Cuilan's shout came from inside the house.

A girl left the office clutching the clothes in her hands, her eyes red and swollen.

Judging from this, Lin Yifeng thought the girl had been sexually harassed in the inner room.

As soon as the door opened, Lin Cuilan spotted Lin Yifeng in the crowd.

She hurriedly got up and called out to Lin Yifeng.

"Boss, what brings you here!"
