Chapter 1258 Preparing to Recruit
The old lady thought that Lan Hua and that young master Yu might have a chance, and she was happy to see it happen. In her opinion, Yu Fenglin was a pretty good young man.
Since the orchid wasn't there, the old lady didn't stay long and planned to come back the next day to ask the orchid what it meant.
If she thinks it's feasible, then she will tell Master Yu so that the two sides can have a formal meeting.
The old lady returned, and Shu Yu noticed that she seemed to be in a good mood, so it seemed that things were going well with the orchid.
She didn't ask any more questions. Now that her eldest sister was married, and the sunflowers would be ripe in about twenty days, she needed to recruit enough people as soon as possible.
The workshop has been built, and the remaining dormitory is mostly completed. These days, her father is making oil pressing tools.
Therefore, early the next morning, Shu Yu set off for the estate.
The workshop was located two miles to the southwest of the village. Shu Yu parked the carriage at the village and walked there with Ying Xi.
The workshop was very large, and the construction was quite grand when it started. Naturally, the villagers from the nearby villages were very curious and would come over to take a look from time to time.
Especially recently, with less work in the fields, many people have free time, and elderly people often gather around the workshop chatting and discussing things.
They also heard from the land buyer that the land was recently purchased by the very famous Mr. Lu Xiangjun.
I just don't know what the workshop is for.
When asked, the workers didn't know either.
The more mysterious it is, the more curious they become.
When Shu Yu arrived that day, there were even more people gathered not far away than in the previous days.
She was a little puzzled, so she went into the workshop and asked Lu Erbai, "Father, what's going on outside?"
Lu Erbai looked up, wiped his sweat, looked in the direction the man was pointing, and laughed, “Oh, it’s nothing. They just saw that our workshop is almost finished and they’re thinking about whether we need to hire workers. They come over from time to time to check and ask around.”
Shu Yu chuckled. These people are quite good at judging the timing.
However, she did not expect that not only these people would be looking for opportunities, but even the workers building the workshop were also eager to get involved.
A short while after Shu Yu arrived, a man from Shangshi Village who was on good terms with Lu Erbai was pushed out by the crowd and walked up to her to ask, "Ms. Lu, when are you hiring for your workshop? What do you think of my husband? And my younger brother, they're both very hardworking."
Shu Yu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "We are indeed planning to recruit people these days." She glanced at the crowd outside the door who were working and listening intently, and simply raised her voice, "If any of your family members are interested, they can come and give it a try."
Everyone was delighted, but before they could cheer, Shu Yu continued, "However, I must make this clear first: I'm only hiring about thirty or forty people this time. Since the number is limited, I'll definitely be looking for hardworking and diligent individuals. Literacy would be a plus. We'll also be signing contracts, and there will be penalties for violating the terms. I know that you uncles and elders have a good relationship with my father, so you should know my character to some extent. I won't give preferential treatment just because someone is from my hometown or related to my family. I will adhere to the principles of fairness, impartiality, and transparency in hiring."
The group looked at each other, and some felt that this was the best way, especially the workers who were not from Shangshi Village and had no connection with the Lu family. They breathed a sigh of relief, as they now had a fair chance to compete.
