Chapter 168 Recruiting (asking for monthly tickets)
“No, why do they only allow those with children? Aren’t those of us who don’t have families with us allowed?” Cui Gang, who was next in line, was instantly furious.
Why?
Xu Runiang: "I am the one who recruits people. I can recruit whoever I want. If you don't agree, then find someone who is willing to recruit you!"
Cui Gang was a tall and strong man. Seeing that Xu Runiang was a woman, he wanted to threaten him. Yu Zhongdou immediately stood in front of Cui Gang with a sword.
"What do you want to do?"
Cui Gang was worried and said very cautiously, "I didn't mean to do anything, I just wanted to know why? You only recruit people with families, but you don't want singles like us?"
Yu Zhongdou: "Didn't you hear what my cousin said? It's my cousin who's hiring people. She can hire whoever she wants. If she doesn't want to hire you, then she doesn't want to hire you. What? Do you still want to make trouble?"
"It's not like we can't work. They have families to support, eat more, and don't do as much work as we do. How can they compare to us?"
"Should I explain to you? I'll explain to you, the reason is very simple, that is, my cousin will get whoever she likes, and if she doesn't like him... then you can only blame your bad luck." Yu Zhongdou asked him to come out of the team and stop making trouble there, otherwise he would throw him out.
By the way, he also shouted to the team, asking those who didn't have families to wait in line, because they didn't want it.
Of course, just because your name is registered doesn’t mean you will be admitted.
The information registration here is just to facilitate Xu Runiang's selection of people.
After registering for half a day and filling up several pages of paper, Xu Runiang stopped them from queuing, saying that they had almost enough people.
The people at the back of the line were anxious: "How come it's enough? We're still in line. It's not our turn yet."
Yu Zhongdou: "Don't queue up. We can't recruit so many people."
"But……"
"But it's no use. We only recruit so few people. We don't recruit all the people on the list. We recruit selectively."
…
Some people knelt down in front of them and begged them to recruit more people.
Xu Runiang had never seen such a scene before, and her eyes became red on the spot. She was soft-hearted, but before she could say anything, Yu Zhongdou said in a firm tone that he would not recruit them, and if they knelt down randomly, he would write down their names and would not recruit them next time.
"We are not recruiting just this once, we are just recruiting so few people this time. If you cooperate well, we will come again in a few days. If you don't cooperate, we will not recruit here next time and recruit somewhere else."
This time, few people dared to kneel.
Xu Runiang breathed a sigh of relief and took the list to select people.
Some of the people who were chosen were overjoyed and quickly told their families, "We got it, we got it!"
Those who were not recruited showed a look of loss: "Why? What's wrong with us?"
Yu Zhongdou: "It's just that we don't like each other. When recruiting people, we must recruit people that my cousin likes. But don't worry, your name is already on the list. Even if you are not recruited this time, you will be able to get your turn next time."
"Next time you'll hire the people on the list first?!"
"Yes! They will definitely select from the list first." Yu Zhongdou said, "They are in batches. You'd better pray that the people on the list work harder. The better they do their job, the more reliable my cousin thinks they are, and the faster she will come to recruit people. If they are not reliable, there will be no next time."
Now, not only did they not dare to ask them to recruit more people, they also had to remind those who were being recruited first to work more actively and leave a good impression on the employer so that the people behind them could be recruited as well.
The names of the siblings Huaiting and Huaixiang were not on the list, which scared them. Fortunately, Qu Haidong still remembered them and reminded Xu Runiang not to miss them, so their names were added.
The brother and sister Huaiting and Huaixiang were very grateful.
Qu Haidong said to them, "Don't thank me, thank Madam Xu. It was Madam Xu who hired you, not me. I was just hired by Madam Xu earlier than you."
"You were hired too?" Whiting was surprised.
Seeing that Qu Haidong was literate and well-mannered, he thought he was a servant trained by a large family.
Qu Haidong: "Well, it's just a few days earlier than you. You'll know when you get there."
In order to prevent these refugees from "bullying" Qinghe Village due to its small population and causing trouble, they had already agreed to first take the refugees to Yilan Village to sign a "body contract", and then bring them back to Qinghe Village in the name of "assignment".
Village chief Wu Mu naturally cooperated, as he was familiar with the process. He first gave a lecture with a stern face, and then took everyone to the mountain god temple to sign the "indenture" in front of the mountain god.
"You can sign or not. If you don't sign, we will send you back tomorrow morning. If you sign, you will be members of our Yilan Village from now on, and you will be paid for your work."
Even if there is not much, they still have two meals a day to ensure that they will not starve to death.
If you want to have enough food to eat, you have to work hard.
If they do a good job, they might even be given a house or have their indentures returned to them.
"We want your indentures, not because we really want you to sell yourself into slavery, but because you are outsiders. We are not confident in employing so many people, so having an indenture will make us feel more at ease."
"Don't worry, as long as you work honestly, we will never treat you unfairly! I swear in front of the Lord Mountain God!"
…
Huiting was so frightened that he wanted to back out on the spot.
He didn't understand how a good job recruitment could turn into a "sell-indenture"? !
However, his sister Huaixiang tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Brother, sign it. If you don't, we will starve to death."
"But if we sign, we will become someone else's slaves and no longer be free. Do you understand? This is a serious matter."
Huaixiang: "I don't understand. I only know that we are starving to death. Brother, do you want to sign or not? Do you want to starve to death, or do you want to sign this?"
Whiting: “…”
It would be fine if he was alone, but the problem was that he brought his sister with him. Whiting didn't know how long the little food they had hidden would last if they didn't sign it.
Can they really enter Blue Tile Town?
Once you go in, will you not face any other risks?
Whiting is not stupid. There are so many people outside Lanwa Town, and certainly not all of them can get in. Only a few can get in.
So, who exactly are the “minority”?
He looked at his sister's delicate and slightly childish face and felt uneasy.
His sister is just young and thin now, so she looks a little childish. But if she grows up a little bit, people will be able to recognize at a glance that she is a girl.
Even so, his sister was not necessarily safe. Just a few days after arriving outside Lanwa Town, Whiting was reminded that his sister was being targeted.
This is also the reason why, when he heard that someone was recruiting, he was so anxious to take his sister with him.
He was afraid that if he wasn't paying attention, his sister would be kidnapped.
We are all refugees, gathering outside the city. Is it normal that so many people are missing?
If it’s not you today, it will be him tomorrow.
