Ming Nian looked at the black boy in front of him with a gleam in his eyes.
You can tell at a glance that he is in good health and must have exercised regularly.
"After seeing the notice, you should know that our master is planning to build an ocean-going merchant ship, not just a small-scale business in this fishing port."
Ming Nian paid attention to the other party's expression as he spoke. If the other party was a little hesitant at this moment, what words should he use to convince him?
Fortunately, he seems to be calm now. He has to work harder, "To be honest with you, young man, going out to sea is always a blessing in disguise. You have to agree to this, or your family members have to sign a contract before we dare to accept you.
Don't worry, the conditions we offer are the most generous, and you can save up a fortune by going out to sea."
Wang Li: “…” It sounds like it’s very dangerous?
"However, this trip may take several months, or even a year or two. If possible, please fill in the information here."
Wang Li: “…” Why do I feel like I’m on a pirate ship?
"Well, I'll go back and think about it."
"What's there to consider?" Ming Nian made up his mind that he had to recruit someone today no matter what.
Of course, he can't just accept anyone. The man in front of him looks healthy. If his wife plans to send them to General Zhou for training, then that would be even better.
"You must not know the treatment here yet, right? Come here with me, I will tell you in detail..."
The waiter who brought the man in quietly walked to the side of the accountant and asked, "Will the shopkeeper scare the man away?"
The accountant said, "So many people have been scared away these days, this one won't be a big deal."
"No, Mr. Yu, this lady is still waiting for a task to be completed. If we don't recruit someone, will we all be in trouble?"
Yu Min, "What do you think? Sometimes it's better to have no one than to have the wrong person. Besides, the master and his wife's temper is not what you think. If you do your job well, you will have a bright future."
"..." Wang Li only saw the man in front of him opening and closing his mouth. The conditions he said made him feel like a joke. "Is the condition really that good?"
"Of course. How could I lie to you? And if you apply for the job today, your salary will be paid starting today."
“No need to sign a contract to sell yourself, and no need to do anything against the law?” When Wang Li thought about the monthly salary of one or two taels of silver, two sets of clothes every season, and rewards at the end of the year if he did a good job, he thought to himself that such conditions might not be a dream, right?
"Look at what this guy said, with a store this big, is it possible for him to cheat people?
The conditions I just mentioned are only the most basic. If you do well, you can even take my position as the shopkeeper." Ming Nian saw that the other party was a little loose, so he immediately stepped up.
"Of course, this also depends on whether you are suitable. If during the trial period, everyone feels that both parties are not satisfied, then the contract can be terminated.
With such a guaranteed job offer, what else do you want…"
Wang Li walked out of Tianfu Restaurant dizzy, looked back at the two-story building, and felt that the previous scene seemed like a dream.
He pinched his thigh secretly, and only came to his senses when he felt the stinging pain.
"Never mind, let's take a gamble." Wang Lian thought that he was alone, and the most valuable thing on his body was his skin. Even if someone wanted to cheat them, they wouldn't choose him.
Little Stone waited at the entrance of the village for a long time before he saw Wang Li. "Brother Li, how are you?"
Wang Li, "Let's go back first."
The two of them walked along the beach to a wooden house. At this moment, several men had gathered around the house.
When they saw them coming, they immediately surrounded them and asked several questions at once.
Wang Li told the story about the recruitment. "I don't know if it's reliable or not. The conditions they offered are too good."
"It doesn't sound very reliable to me. All the shops on this street recruit people in the same way. In the end, the shopkeeper or someone's relative will make the reservation.
Brother Li, you didn’t sign anything nonsense, did you?
I've heard before that some people use this method to trick others into signing a contract to sell themselves."
Wang Li, "Brother Li, are you that stupid? I can read.
What's more, Tianfu Restaurant is such a big place, it's not worth taking such a big risk for a small person like me."
"Tianfu Restaurant? Are you sure it's Tianfu Restaurant?" Huang Anping suddenly exclaimed.
"Yeah, it seems to have just opened not long ago. Why? Have you been there?"
Huang Anping, "...Have you forgotten what my distant cousin does? He is the chief constable of the prefectural government. I still know a little bit of the inside story."
Huang Anping swallowed his saliva and said, "If it is Tianfu Restaurant, then Brother Li is really lucky this time."
Little Stone pushed him and said, "It's already this late, and you're still keeping us in suspense. Tell us what's going on.
You know this Tianfu Restaurant, what does it have to do with Captain Fan?"
Speaking of their previous business, they were also relying on their cousin Wang Anping being the chief constable, otherwise they might not have made a single penny.
Huang Anping, "How could my cousin have such good fortune to be related to Tianfu Restaurant? You all know the prefect who just took office last year."
"Of course, everyone in the entire Lucheng knows this now."
"I heard from my cousin that Tianfu Tea House is owned by the prefect's wife."
“…Are you sure?”
When Huang Anping was questioned, he immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, "How could this be wrong? You all know that I have the best memory.
My cousin told me that the wife of the prefect has more than just the Tianfu Restaurant under her name. She owns many other restaurants, and this is only a small part of her business. She is also an imperial merchant. "
"Wow, a woman can be so powerful?" Little Stone took a breath, "So, Brother Li heard the conditions, and they might be true."
Huang Anping was also envious at this moment, "That's right, it's said that it's good to lean on a big tree for shade. If Brother Li really gets a job there, he will be connected to the prefect in the future."
Wang Li, "Actually, they are still hiring..."
Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Wang Li gritted his teeth and shrank back, "But this job might be a little dangerous. You know we didn't have maritime trade before. If we go out to sea, who knows what the situation is like out there?
Those bandits also came from overseas. If we really run into them, then..."
Seeing that his brothers were so yearning for it, he had no choice but to come out and play the bad guy and explain to them how serious the situation was. These people might blame him in the future.
"That's why high effort brings high reward. Brother Li, why don't you not go? At worst, we can look for sources of goods in several nearby villages and each person will get a little less. At least we won't starve to death." Huang Anping calmed down at this moment. If he wanted to build relationships, he would have to see if he could survive in the future.
