Chapter 329: The people this thing needs are strong, courageous, and good at finding their way.
"Besides, even if you want to vent your anger, you should vent it on me. Why would you bother with Madam Ruan?"
The leader choked and was also very angry, with a look of regret on his face.
He looked at the messy orchard, feeling very unwilling. "Sir, let's be fair. Since we damaged the property, we will compensate you."
"Compensation? What are you going to use to compensate me?"
The orchard worker was furious and rushed forward, saying, "We worked so hard to raise these fruit seedlings, and you've ruined them! You can't even afford a meal, and you still want compensation? What can you offer?"
Ruan Mian stopped the waiter and looked at the men.
The leader straightened his back and said, "I will compensate you if I say so, but I can't let the guy in the Ruan's cargo operation who insulted me go on like this!"
Lord Lin saw that they were joking and was speechless. Just as he was about to speak, Ruan Mian spoke.
"You want to work for our freight company? Do you have any special abilities? You should know that many people want to work for our freight company, but we don't need so many people, so we will naturally choose the most suitable people from among them."
When the man heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said, "What this thing needs is someone who is strong, brave, and knows the way."
"We brothers are strong, brave, and more importantly, we know our way around. Before we became fugitives, we were all errand boys in the government, escorting prisoners, so we naturally know our way around better than the average person. But the recruiter would rather hire a weak scholar than us, and even drove us out like beggars!"
"Let me ask you, Madam Ruan, do you really need to recruit weaklings to run your cargo?"
After hearing this, Ruan Mian probably guessed that the freight operation had limited vacancies for recruiting workers, and the guys under him wanted to reserve the vacancies for people they were familiar with, so they didn't recruit them.
After all, the benefits of freight operation are amazing, with high salaries and extra bonuses on holidays.
Who wouldn’t want to come?
She looked at these people and found that they indeed met the recruitment requirements and were honest people, so she spoke immediately.
"As you said, my freight operation really needs such talents. How about this, you guys go to my freight operation for a five-day trial. If you really meet the requirements, I will keep you here. I will also provide food and accommodation, and you won't lose a penny."
When everyone present heard this, they were stunned. They obviously didn't expect Ruan Mian to let the matter go and instead want to use them.
The leader's expression also softened a bit: "Is what Madam Ruan said true?"
"A gentleman's word is as good as gold. So many people have heard this. Could I possibly be deceiving you?"
She waved her hand and said seriously, "Whether you can stay here or not depends on your own ability. As for what happened today, I won't pursue it. Just don't act impulsively in the future."
She smiled slightly, easily dissolving the tense atmosphere.
However, after turning around, Cuizhu, who had rushed over, was puzzled: "Miss! How could you let them go so easily? They have uprooted all the fruit seedlings, and those medicinal herbs..."
"It's not a big deal. Just replant the rooted fruit seedlings. If the medicinal herbs are burned, just water them with some medicine. I'll mix the medicine and you can take it to the herb garden."
"But girl! Are you really not going to punish them?"
As Cuizhu finished speaking, the leader suddenly kowtowed to Ruan Mian: "Madam Ruan! We promised to compensate you for your losses, and we will do so. This is the only silver we have. If you need more, we can compensate you with our work! And we'll also help you plant those fruit seedlings that have been uprooted."
Ruan Mian nodded, looked at Cuizhu, and spoke slowly.
"At first, I thought if Wen Qiang and the others were sending people to deliberately harm us, I would naturally not let them off easy. But as you can see, they are just villagers in trouble. They can't control their tempers, so of course, there will be consequences."
"Also, I think they're all talents needed for freight operations. It would be a shame to let them go. If they're not bad people, they're useful."
"Zhu'er, if you want to expand your business, the most taboo is to do everything yourself. You can't build a large-scale business by yourself. The reason why the freight transport is recruiting workers now is because the future grain harvest, tussah silkworm harvest, and the transportation of medicinal materials will all require a lot of manpower."
"It's most important to cultivate your own talents in advance. Take weaving, for example. With you and Meixi taking care of it, I don't have to do anything myself. I have my aunt to help with the medicinal herbs, my father is in charge of the herbal medicine shop, and Madam Wei is helping with the orchard. If I were to do all this alone, wouldn't I be exhausted?"
"By delegating tasks, being more discerning in identifying people, and giving others more opportunities to thrive, you are paving the way for yourself."
Cuizhu kept all these words in mind, and her previous anger had long since dissipated.
"Miss, you're right. Now that I think about it, those people just now made this mistake because our freight operator insulted them first."
"The fact that they are willing to take the initiative to compensate and make amends proves that they are not bad people by nature."
She nodded. After settling them, Ruan Mian went to take a look at the cargo operations.
Recently, she only asked the freight company to recruit more workers, but ignored the employment standards.
Might as well take this opportunity to go and have a look.
So she took those people to the freight line.
At this time, the person in charge of all freight transportation matters was a man named Li Si in the village.
After hearing the whole story, Li Si immediately called the guy who insulted others and gave him a good scolding, and warmly welcomed these people to join.
The leading man was named Guo Shi, who thanked Ruan Mian and Li Si on the spot.
After settling this matter, Ruan Mian went to check the current status of the cargo operation. Compared with the previous scale, the bank now has a lot more people involved.
Li Si told her, "Madam Ruan, the extra men we're recruiting are basically able-bodied men from the village, or men who have been relocated from Wuheng City. They're all strong and capable, and they work very efficiently. Don't worry, of course, something like that just now won't happen again. I'll definitely keep a close eye on the people below!"
Ruan Mian smiled, and at this moment, he saw a tall and strong man coming towards him, carrying several bags of grain and unloading them from a freight cart.
There was a familiarity between his eyebrows. Perhaps because she had looked at him a few more times, Li Si quickly told her, "Madam Ruan, this is one of the newly recruited guys. He is a refugee from the south. I saw that he was extremely strong and tall, so I recruited him."
"Don't tell me, he's been loading and unloading all the food these days. He's the equivalent of two or three people at ordinary times!"
After saying that, she called the man over and greeted him: "This is Madam Ruan, our boss."
