Chapter 242 Leading Them Here



Chapter 242 Leading Them Here

Looking at the lively scene at the job recruitment column, Yan Ji couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Madam Lu was indeed a disciple of the immortal.

Look, it has only been a short time since Cangwu came under her rule, but it already has such a beautiful appearance. In time, who knows how prosperous it will be.

He must perform well.

Yan Ji thought to himself and quickly posted the job advertisement he had written.

Seeing this, the people gathered in front of the job posting looked at him with envy. Anyone who could post a notice on the job posting must be in charge of some department.

Someone even stepped forward to inquire, "Brother, where are you recruiting people from and what are you recruiting them for?"

Yan Ji hurriedly introduced the refugee camp loudly.

Many people were tempted when they heard about the wages and benefits offered by the refugees.

The refugee camp provided three meals a day and three hundred coins a month, which was a considerable income even in the past.

Many people gathered around to inquire about the employment conditions.

After Yan Ji explained the recruitment requirements to everyone one by one, he also introduced the work that the refugees needed to do.

Some people also think that being an apprentice in a clinic is better, because not only can they get paid, but they can also learn something.

The war would eventually end, and the refugee center would eventually be abolished. If the higher-ups didn't appoint a new department, there would be nothing left for us to do. But being an apprentice in a clinic meant I could earn money through my own skills, even after the war was over.

But others said that although the apprentices in the clinic were provided with three meals a day, they were only given fifty copper coins a month, while the refugees were given three hundred copper coins, which was several times more than what the clinic gave them.

Those who were short of money and urgently needed to spend mostly went to places like refugee camps where the wages were higher to take the exam.

Because each company has different situations and choices, most departments that recruit workers through the job postings column can find the workers they need.

However, some special talents are in extremely short supply and are basically impossible to recruit from the refugee group.

Jiang Tangtang then remembered the original intention of their coming out this time.

Lu Shiyan originally wanted to go to the capital to find Cao Lesheng, the weapon master. In addition to Cao Lesheng, there should be other top talents in various industries in the capital.

But given the current situation in Cangwu, they can't just make arrangements and go out like they did in Lingnan.

It would be great if there was a way to lure these people here on their own initiative.

Jiang Tangtang was thinking about it, and suddenly an idea came to her. She quickly dropped her pen and hurried to find Lu Shiyan.

Lu Shiyan was teaching his men how to train new recruits. When he saw Jiang Tangtang, he said a few words to the adjutant beside him and hurriedly strode towards Jiang Tangtang.

"Why are you here?" He smiled unconsciously when he saw Jiang Tangtang, staring at Jiang Tangtang without blinking.

The two of them were in Cangwu together, but they hadn't seen each other for three days. She seemed to have lost weight again, but her complexion seemed to be okay...

Jiang Tangtang's eyes lit up like stars. She excitedly grabbed his arm and said, "I want to ask you, besides the weapon expert Cao Lesheng, what other talents are there in the capital? Tell me quickly."

Lu Shiyan was pleased by her affectionate gesture, and the smile on his face became even more intense. He took her back to the carriage, "What's your idea?"

He didn't want their intimate actions to be seen by outsiders, so he took Jiang Tangtang back to the carriage.

Jiang Tangtang realized that although they were surrounded by people they trusted, it was better to conspire in secret for such an important matter.

She leaned close to his ear and whispered, "I want to use a trick to lure them over and use them for our own benefit. But you have to tell me their personalities and hobbies, and what they're most obsessed with."

Lu Shiyan suppressed the itch in his ears and calmed his mind as he said, "Weapon Master Cao Lesheng's greatest love in his life was developing weapons. Later, he had an accident while developing weapons and lost one of his hands. He then resigned from the weapons depot and has been silent ever since. I'm not sure what his hobbies are now. I sent people to invite him several times before, but he refused to come."

Jiang Tangtang frowned slightly, "Is his entire hand gone? Or what?"

"My hands are still there, but they're not strong enough to hold anything." Lu Shiyan said.

"That's easy. We'll send her a magic medicine to heal her hand, and also send her half a volume of a book on weapon making. If her hand is getting better, and the book on weapon making piques her interest, she'll definitely not refuse our invitation again."

Jiang Tangtang guessed that his hand was probably suffering from nerve damage, and the spiritual spring could repair the body's hidden diseases, so she gave it to him as a try.

As for the books on weapon manufacturing, you can pick some from the books on weapon manufacturing in the book bar and copy them down. This will arouse his interest, but it is incomplete, so that he will accept their invitation to come here out of curiosity.

No matter how dishonorable the means are, the means are not important; what is important is the result.

Jiang Tangtang was calculating in her mind, and it took her a while to realize that Lu Shiyan hadn't said anything.

She raised her eyes and found that he was staring at her without blinking. Jiang Tangtang met his gaze and her heart beat uncomfortably.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" She avoided meeting her gaze and habitually raised her hand to smooth the hair behind her ear.

"Look at how smart my wife is. How did I meet such a smart girl?"

Jiang Tangtang held her forehead, "Don't say anymore. If you continue, I'll think you've been possessed by someone else."

"What does it mean to be possessed by another's body?" Lu Shiyan looked at her with a smile.

"It's like what's said in fairy tales. Some people are unwilling to accept death after their physical body dies, so their soul takes over another person's body and lives their life under that person's name."

Jiang Tangtang suddenly felt a little nervous after she finished speaking. Would he misunderstand that she was possessing someone else's body?

She wanted to slap herself on the head, but also wanted to see his reaction.

"Will she leave then?" His question seemed a bit irrelevant, but Jiang Tangtang understood what he meant.

Jiang Tangfang seemed to be still talking about a novel. "In fairy tales, after the soul and body merge, the body will become more and more like the soul of that person. In other words, the body is the person herself. It won't just go away!"

Lu Shiyan was obviously relieved, but he did not ask about the matter of possession. Instead, he took the initiative to talk about the personalities and hobbies of some craftsmen he was familiar with.

However, not many people understand his personality and hobbies. For many people, he only knows their talents but does not understand them as individuals.

Some people have only heard of their names.

Seeing Jiang Tangtang frown, he immediately said, "I'll send someone to the capital to investigate first. I'll send the medicine and half a volume of the book to Cao Lesheng when you're ready."

He paused, "I can also prepare the scroll."

"Then take a look and decide which ones are suitable to copy." It's not like he hasn't seen modern books before, so Jiang Tangtang directly took out several military-related books from the space.

Lu Shiyan only flipped through the book and glanced at it for a few seconds before his blood boiled. He handed the book back to Jiang Tangtang and said, "Keep it. I'll come home tonight and copy it. It's not convenient in the army."
