Isn't that playing with your life?
Ordinary people who work every day are tortured to the point of vomiting blood. With my small body, I will die!
The candidates began to feel dissatisfied.
Zhou Maoxue frowned and said angrily, "Brother Tang, are you kidding me? You want me to work in the factory?"
Fang Zhengyi was about to speak when suddenly a servant dressed as a butler ran over from the corner.
He pulled Fang Zhengyi's sleeve and whispered something.
Fang Zheng nodded seriously and said to everyone, "Please wait here for a moment. I will give you a satisfactory answer in a moment."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the room, and the housekeeper followed him in.
The door was closed and everyone was waiting anxiously outside.
"I think what the president said is a good idea. If we sneak into the black factory, won't it be clear at a glance? If we are abused, we can just get out in time."
"Get away! Get away if you say so! They treat people like slaves!"
"We absolutely cannot work in the factory. Even if Tang Bohu is the chairman, we can't do anything he says. Isn't this a joke?"
"That's right. Can't we just pay someone else to do this kind of rough work? Why do we have to do it ourselves?"
"Oh, I thought the teachers from Dongjiao University were decent people, but I didn't expect them to be beasts in human form."
There was a heated conversation going on outside.
Fang Zhengyi and the housekeeper sat on their chairs. The housekeeper said sadly, "Master, Master, you can't go on like this. There is no money left at home."
"With so many people finding jobs through the backdoor, the brokerage firm raised the salary from 1,300 taels to 2,000 taels!"
"There is really not a penny left in the family now. Where are you going to make up for the shortfall of seven hundred taels?"
Fang Zheng said, "How is that possible? I remember that there are several thousand taels of silver in my family. How could we be stuck with only 700 taels?"
The people reading outside heard the conversation inside, and the person in front stretched out his arms and made a hushing gesture to the back.
Everyone immediately quieted down, tilted their heads towards the door, and tried hard to hear more clearly.
The voice came out clearly through the crack of the door: "Master, you forgot! So many scholars came to our house, and you asked them to buy the best food, clothing, pens, ink, paper and inkstone for them. You also bought a set of clothes for each person. In order to take care of them, you hired many more servants. The money added up is a huge sum. In addition, we hired teachers from Dongda University at a high price. We really don’t have a penny left."
Then a sigh came: "Then...then let's dismiss the extra servants in the house. Doesn't my father have a precious calligraphy and painting? Pawn the painting...that's all. I think there will be more places to spend money in the future, so let's put the house up for sale next month."
"No! No! Master, this is our ancestral property. The spirits of our ancestors will blame us! We absolutely cannot sell it. You can't end up living on the streets after the house is sold." The voice sounded extremely sad. "Master, I heard everything outside just now. They don't appreciate your kindness at all. They eat and drink for free in our house and still treat you like this. You don't have to be so sincere to them!"
The scholar outside the door turned pale instantly, felt his face burning, and felt ashamed.
Only then did they realize that we had been spending the chairman's money during this period, and there was wine and meat for every meal for hundreds of people!
There are also teachers who are hired at a high price and earn hundreds of taels a month, and countless pens, inks, papers, and inkstones, books and teaching materials, all of which are very expensive!
President Tang has given so much for us behind the scenes!
When everyone was heartbroken, an angry voice was heard again.
"Shut up! You've been a servant of the Tang family for so many years, haven't you made any progress at all? All you care about is money! Money! Money!"
"I, Tang Bohu, have been wandering for half my life, searching for like-minded people. Until today, I finally found the real gold after searching through the yellow sand. God has mercy on me and sent talents from all over the country to me. What we are pursuing are all great things for the country and the people. How can we be bound by money?"
"You don't need to say anything more. Take the painting and the title deed to the pawn shop right now! Also, if I hear you say anything bad about my brothers again, you will no longer be part of my Tang family. Do you understand?"
With a bang, it seemed as if a teacup was broken in the house.
The candidates outside the door were already in tears, and the group was silent.
There is true love and justice in the world, and one can see a person's true heart over time.
It’s a pleasure to meet a naive kid like Brother Tang... I would even accept working in a factory!
Zhou Maoxue was also deeply moved, and his pupils became somewhat dilated.
I have to say that at this moment, Tang Bohu's personality really impressed him.
We have known each other for a short time, but we are willing to give up everything for each other just for the sake of "common ideals".
He believes that he has countless friends, but none of them can be as open and sincere as Tang Bohu...
Having a close friend like this in life is far better than having countless bad friends!
Looking back at myself, it seems that I am only pursuing personal gain, and my realm is much lower than his...
But at this moment, the door was pushed open with a bang.
The butler rushed out of the door, ignoring everyone covering their faces, holding something that looked like a "land deed" in his hand and a scroll under his arm.
Then Fang Zhengyi walked out slowly from the door.
Everyone turned their gaze away from the butler and looked at Fang Zhengyi.
His eyes were red, as if he had been crying.
His original elegant demeanor, which seemed like that of a banished immortal, was largely lost.
Everyone felt sorry for him when they saw this...
Fang Zhengyi took a deep breath, raised his hand and smiled, "Ahem... Sorry to have wasted your time. Let me continue my explanation."
