Chapter 54 Just Think of It as Charity

Zhao Dalong touched his nose awkwardly. "Well, most of these people don't have IDs, so they can't work in formal places, so they live here."

Lin Jianyan looked at the group of people in front of him who were looking down and uneasy. He was silent for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Zhou Xuejian beside him. "How about this, Mr. Zhou? Is this situation easy to deal with?"

Zhou Xuejian looked at the group of people in front of him, thinking that if the event was to be held, there would definitely be more than this number of people, and he broke out in a sweat. "I, I have never done this before, I have to ask my superiors for permission. I can only say that it is a bit difficult to do, but I will try my best."

I understand. It's difficult, but it doesn't mean it can't be done. Looks like I need to find someone to help me with some connections.

Lin Jianyan looked at the group of skinny and severely malnourished people in front of him and sighed in his heart. Who told them that they were from the same country? As long as they hadn't made any serious mistakes, he would help them if he could, and it would be considered as accumulating virtue for his family and himself.

"Okay, let's talk about this later. Just register your name first."

Hearing that he would find a way to solve their identity problem, the crowd suddenly became agitated. Zhao Dalong stood in front of the crowd like a hen protecting her chicks, looking at Lin Jianyan warily:

"You don't have any conspiracy, do you? We are not related at all, how can you be so kind?"

Lin Jianyan didn't care about his suspicion. It was a good thing to be wary of outsiders.

"Can you just think of it as me feeling sorry for them and wanting to do charity? Mr. Zhou is still here, what can I do to you? I can fake it, but I can't fake his identity."

Zhou Xuejian quickly raised his hand to prove himself, "Yes, yes, yes, I can prove that Mr. Lin is really a good person. He just sent a small criminal group to jail a while ago, saving many families from the oppression of usury and the underworld. I will definitely not lie to you."

"And Mr. Lin is also a public figure. He was all over the newspapers a while ago. If you have the last issue of the newspaper, you will know."

When Zhao Dalong heard him say this, he remembered something he had heard outside some time ago, but he didn't expect that the protagonist praised in the story was the person in front of him.

"It turns out to be Mr. Lin. I have heard a lot about you. If that is the case, I am relieved."

Zhao Dalong smiled and shouted to the people behind him: "Everyone line up and register one by one."

After hearing what Zhao Dalong said, the crowd suddenly quieted down and lined up in an orderly manner, and naturally let a few women line up in front.

Lin Jianyan looked at Zhao Dalong and raised his eyebrows slightly. This man looked young but he was actually quite capable, otherwise this group of people wouldn't listen to him so much.

Lin Jian collected his thoughts and smiled warmly at the woman in front of him, "Sister, what's your name? How old are you?"

The woman was too embarrassed to look up. She was wearing old clothes that had been washed so much that you couldn't tell the original color. The clothes were covered with patches. She spoke in a not-so-fluent Mandarin, but you could still hear her accent. "My name is Wang Cui, and I'm thirty-seven."

Lin Jianyan was stunned. She was only thirty-seven, but people would believe her if she said she was fifty based on her face. She didn't know what kind of life had wasted her life. She looked ten years older.

"Can you read? Can you tell me how you got here?"

"I, I don't know how to read, but I can learn. I was sold here. The man who bought me wanted me to have his child and beat me. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I ran away."

"I don't want to go home either. I can't survive there."

"Boss, I'm young and capable. I don't mind the dirt or the tiredness. Just give me a job to do. I don't eat much either. Please hire me!" Wang Cui was afraid that Lin Jianyan would despise her for being uneducated, so she knelt down and begged for mercy.

Lin Jianyan quickly supported her and said, "Don't kneel. As long as you meet the requirements, I will definitely confess. Hurry up and get up."

Lin Jianyan gave a wink to Ajun and Aliang, and the two of them received it and held Wang Cui on the left and right. After Wang Cui stood up, the two men let go of their hands and stood back behind Lin Jianyan.

Wang Cui knew that the boss in front of her could give her a chance to survive. She wiped away her excited tears and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, boss, thank you, boss."

"Okay, next one."

The crowd finished registering one after another. Lin Jianyan looked at the information in the registration book. There were 27 people, only three of whom were women. In addition to Wang Cui, there were six people who could not read. Although the others had a low level of education, they could recognize a few words and count.

Those twenty people can go for training, and the remaining seven can be assigned to cleaning and the kitchen. However, I have to discuss this with Liu Huawei to see if he has recruited enough people.

Lin Jianyan closed the notebook and looked at the group of people in front of him with expectation. "I have temporarily written down your names, but you can only enter the factory for training and sign the contract after I get your identity certificates."

"There are many of you, so it will be difficult to handle all of them. I just don't know if you are willing to wait."

"Yes, yes, we are all willing to wait!"

"We've endured all these years, so we can wait a little longer!"

"Yes, we are willing to wait. As long as you are willing to give us a chance to work, we are willing to wait no matter how long it takes."

Seeing that no one was dissatisfied, Lin Jinyan nodded and waved to Zhao Dalong beside him.

Zhao Dalong came over puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Jianyan whispered, "Let me tell you first. I won't accept anyone with bad conduct. Go and count the number of people and write a list. I'll have someone come to pick them up tomorrow."

Zhao Dalong understood what he meant and widened his eyes in surprise. "Do you mean you are willing to help all of us get identification?"

"Not everyone. I won't help anyone who has bad intentions or a criminal record, so I asked you to write a list. I can see that you are their leader, so I think this should be easy for you."

Zhao Dalong was excited for a moment, but calmed down the next moment. He looked at Lin Zhenyan with a strange look in his eyes, "I find you to be very strange. People outside call you a bodhisattva. You must be a bodhisattva in the world. What are you trying so hard for?"

"Some of these people have almost given up on themselves. It's really not worth it for you to help them so much."

Lin Jianyan raised his eyebrows and smiled in a way that made it hard to tell what he was really thinking. "What do you care? I'll only help you this time. If you miss this opportunity, you won't be able to find another one."

"If you want to trust me, just go ahead and do it. I'll have someone come to get it tomorrow. If you don't want to trust me, forget it. I'm not the kind of person who rushes to do something that's thankless."

Zhao Dalong changed his mind several times, and gritted his teeth, "Okay, I'll trust you this time. If you can really do it, you will be my big brother in the future, and I will give you my life!"

"If you were lying to me—"

Lin Jianyan asked him with a smile, not frightened at all by the ferocious expression on his face, "What would you do if someone lied to you?"
