Chapter 101: Poaching

After leaving Yiji, Zhao Yingman asked around. After spending a lot of money, he finally found out that the Yang family's workshop was in Lujia Village.

Zhao Yingman and the others laughed sneeringly.

When Zhao Yingman learned that Hu Youwei, Wu Dazhi and Yang Zeju were cooperating, he didn't care and felt that it didn't matter. These two people didn't have much money anyway, and even if they stood on his side, there wouldn't be much to give them.

Zhao Yingman first went to Lujia Village to inspect it himself, and later found that the workshop was strictly guarded.

We had no choice but to wait until the workshop stopped working and then intercept the villagers on their way back home, trying to get useful information from them.

"Hey, hey, hey, Aunt Zhou, what do you think about what I told you?" Zhao Yingman asked Aunt Zhou.

Aunt Zhou couldn't avoid it, so she said helplessly, "Oh, I've told you so many times, don't ask me, I won't tell you, we all signed a confidentiality agreement when we started working, and I tell you, it's not easy for us to get this job, we all have to go through many difficulties, we all have to defeat many people to get this job, if you want to poach me, go poach someone else, I won't be a traitor!"

"Look at what you said. What do you mean by a traitor? This is called a wise bird choosing the right tree to roost in." Zhao Yingman tried to continue persuading her.

"Aunt Zhou, think about your grandson. Do you think about whether he will get married in the future? Now there is a high-paying opportunity that can allow you to get it all in one go. Why not?" Zhao Yingman grasped Aunt Zhou's weakness. Aunt Zhou's grandson was Aunt Zhou's lifeblood.

"But you are telling me about a high salary now. When you master what I have learned, you will kick me out all of a sudden. Wouldn't that be like losing the watermelon for the sake of picking up sesame seeds?" Aunt Zhou said doubtfully.

When Zhao Yingman heard her say this, he thought there was a chance, "Aunt Zhou, just name a number. How could that happen? The situation you described will never happen!" But what Zhao Yingman was thinking in his heart was that once she taught others and they learned it, he would kick her out immediately. Who the hell was she to talk to him like that?

"100 taels, if you dig me out, I will go with you. This is just the money you give me. After you dig me out, my salary here is 25 wen a day. I don't ask for more. Just pay me the salary as usual. And after you go with us, we will have no place to live. You will be responsible for finding us a place to live and food. I am in my own home and I have land to farm. We don't spend much money on food, but if you take me away like this, I will have to spend money to buy food. Moreover, my grandson is still young and cannot be left alone. Our whole family will have to take him with him. What do you think? Take us away if you can accept it." Aunt Zhou calculated it in her mind and said to him.

"100 taels!" Zhao Yingman was furious when he heard this. What? How could this woman be worth a hundred taels of silver? And she had to support a family, and he had to take care of her accommodation and food. And he still wanted twenty-five coins a day. She was so old, and he still wanted twenty-five coins. What a boast! A grown man in his family only made twenty coins a day!

"What? You can't even afford this hundred taels? Then forget it." Seeing his surprised and unbelievable look, Aunt Zhou knew there was no hope, so she planned to go home.

This time, Zhao Yingman didn't stop her and let her go.

"With one hundred taels, I can hire so many workers!" Zhao Yingman started scolding after she disappeared.

Seeing that she was not sincere in wanting to go with him, Zhao Yingman gave up and went to find someone else.

It seemed like the others had colluded with each other and were all determined to get one hundred taels.

Zhao Yingman felt that this was simply unreasonable. This was just one type of work, and it cost one hundred taels. With so many types of work, how much money would it cost? The workshop hadn't been built yet, and other things hadn't been bought yet, yet he had to spend so much money on labor. Zhao Yingman was unwilling to do that.

Zhao Yingman worked like this for a few days, but there was no progress.

Zhao Yingman was about to give up, but at this moment, a group of people found him.

"I heard you pay high salaries?" Zhou Dadong asked.

Zhao Yingman looked at the group of people, puzzled.

"Say something, okay?" Zhou Dadong continued to ask when he saw that he didn't speak.

"Are you working in the workshop?" Zhao Yingman asked.

"Of course." Zhou Dadong lied without blushing or beating his heart.

"What do you do?" Zhao Yingman asked.

"First, answer us whether you want to hire us with a high salary? If so, we don't want one hundred taels, fifty taels will be enough. We have people of every kind of job here, it depends on whether you want to seize this opportunity!" Zhou Dadong said confidently, relying on the number of people.

"Is fifty taels really enough?" Zhao Yingman asked in disbelief.

"Well, everyone else has colluded with them, but we are different. We are in urgent need of money, and we don't want to collude with them," said Zhou Dadong.

"Then let me think about it." Zhao Yingman said after thinking for a while.

"Don't even think about it. You'll miss this opportunity. You've asked so many people, and you see no one doesn't want one hundred taels." Zhou Dadong urged him, fearing that he would go back on his word.

"Thirty taels." Zhao Yingman tried to bargain.

"No, no, why are you still bargaining? We don't want your one hundred taels, we want fifty taels, and you still want to bargain with us!" Zhou Dadong said angrily.

Others echoed.

"Forget it. Do you really think you can follow me today if you sign today? Have you confirmed that everyone in each job category is here?" Zhao Yingman asked.

"We promise that if we sign today, we will leave today. We have had enough. The management here is obviously not as good as me, but they insist on suppressing me. So it is better to work with you than with them. I believe you will not treat us unfairly." Zhou Dadong flattered him at the right time.
