This petition came earlier than Xianjin had imagined.
Um...
Rather than calling it a petition, it would be better to call it an autobiography.
The whole article mainly describes his life of devoting his youth to the Chen family. At the end, it is emphasized that he has been an apprentice in the Chen family's papermaking since he was fourteen years old. Although he has not made any contributions in his life, he has worked hard. Now he is fifty-four years old. The past forty years have passed like a flash. It has been a blessing for the Chen family, but it is a curse that cannot be avoided.
The central idea is still very clear, mainly highlighting the key number "forty" in "forty years".
Twice forty is eighty.
Xianjin paid about eighty taels of silver and presented it ceremoniously in front of everyone. He also cleared a hall in the Dengxuan workshop and asked Zheng Er, the only student with healthy limbs who could not do push-ups anywhere, to present a bouquet of flowers to the "very angry" old friend.
"The man with the most anger" burst into tears on the spot, and it was not known whether it was because of the eighty taels of silver or the bunch of small yellow flowers he had picked up from the corner.
Xianjin said, "Those who have worked for the Chen family for 30 years can also enjoy three taels of silver per year for medicine after leaving the company."
The old friends were immediately in an uproar.
On the second day, more petitions were delivered to Xianjin, and in the blink of an eye, five positions for workshop masters were vacant in the Dengxuan workshop.
Xianjin opened the storehouse, took out a gold-sprinkled jade plate, and asked Chen Jianfang to write dozens of lines on it, and finally stamped it with Chen's big red seal.
Chen Jianfang put down his pen, crossed his arms, looked at the increasingly harsh conditions on the paper, and smiled, "...I don't know if it's to recruit a clerk, or Fengtai to recruit a son-in-law..."
It is not auspicious to seek a son-in-law at Fengtai.
Chen Jianfang paused, trying to use the silence to correct his previous slip of the tongue, then lowered his head as if to cover up, and read the notice he had just written one by one, "... the height must be at least five feet and five inches, the age must not exceed twenty years old, and the legs must be long and the waist must be narrow..."
Chen Jianfang looked at Xianjin meaningfully.
Xianjin was confident and confident, his chest was already there before his body, "Long legs and narrow waist make it easier to exert strength. Fishing for paper is both a physical and technical job. Look at our Gou Ge, Zheng Da Ge and Zheng Er Ge, who isn't like this?"
Chen Jianfang smiled and raised his eyebrows, which was considered as his approval of this item, and then continued to read, "Those who can recognize more than 100 words are preferred, and those who can recite and write the Three Character Classic will be directly employed."
Being able to read at least proves that there is nothing wrong with one’s brain.
This one is also reasonable.
Chen Jianfang continued to read, "The candidates must have more than two years of papermaking experience, be healthy, hardworking, capable and willing to learn. There are ten candidates to be recruited. Interested parties please go to Dengxuan Workshop to submit your registration information before the fourth day of August. Chenji will organize an examination at Dengxuan Workshop on the tenth day of August. The top eight candidates will be recruited, and the top sixteen candidates will be included in the supplementary recruitment list. They will all participate in the three-month training organized by Chenji. Those who perform well in the training will be supplemented."
Chen Jianfang nodded, with a hint of imperial examination in mind.
but...
Why should others come?
It's just a paper-making workshop, why should they spend so much effort to fight for these ten places?
Chen Jianfang continued to read, "Those who are successfully recruited will be awarded a rank with one cuff, a monthly base salary of three taels, thirteen salaries a year, and an annual medicine subsidy of three taels. They will have the opportunity to participate in the production of "tribute" paper such as six-zhang xuan and eight-zhang xuan. All treatment will be favorable, and the path to promotion will be broad. I hope that many aspiring talents in Xuancheng will go and join us."
Chen Jianfang scratched his forehead and said, "Let me be frank first. I really don't know how to do business."
Xianjin: If you understand, what else do you need her for?
Chen Jianfang pointed to the "ten" on the paper and asked in confusion, "But we are only short of five people now, why do we need to recruit ten people?"
His finger moved to the number "sixteen" and said, "Even, we need to include the top sixteen? Do we need so many people?"
Xianjin shook his head, "Of course it's not necessary."
Chen Jianfang listened attentively, wanting to hear the details. His straight profile faced the light, and the beam of light just hit his straight nose.
Xianjin blinked, "I've asked around. There are exactly sixteen young men under the age of twenty serving their respective masters at Hengji and Baiji."
Chen Jianfang raised his eyebrows and looked at Xianjin again.
All right.
From beginning to end, this girl never concealed her foxy nature.
Chen Jianfang smiled and said, "Then wouldn't our family have spent money in vain?"
Xianjin smiled and said, "If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. People are the biggest tools for making paper. Once this group of people leave, Hengji and Baiji will immediately resort to the empty city plan - what can they accomplish with only three or four masters left? They can only scramble to find other apprentices. Their panic time just gives the Chen family a chance to start early."
Just like the campus recruitment season in later generations - Xunyi, Dangding, and Dongmei, why do they offer an annual salary of 30 or 40 yuan or more to hundreds or thousands of fledgling campus recruits?
Too rich?
Well...of course there is that factor.
Or do we really need so many people?
It is definitely not necessary, otherwise there would be no frequent layoffs.
These big companies don’t care whether you are worth 30 or 40 million yuan a year. They only care about catching people like fishing, and then slowly selecting the truly outstanding ones.
He would rather try and fail in recruiting people than leave any usable talent for his opponent!
This is his purpose of robbing people.
Similarly, Xianjin followed this idea.
I can't pry open your loyal master chef, so I'll pry open your handyman!
You can't even make paper!
What? You said the trick was insidious?
Is this called insidious?
No! This is called business war!
This is called Jiang Taigong fishing, those who are willing will take the bait!
