Isn't this just giving the people in their village a chance to change their fate?
Seeing the old village chief so excited, Yu Mingxiang was also happy. However, she still said realistically, "Currently, my workshop only has one order from the town government, so I don't need to hire many people, just about ten."
The old village chief said, "Ten or so is already a lot! Dr. Yu, you've essentially changed the fate of ten or so households!"
Upon learning that Yu Mingxiang had delegated the decision-making power for recruitment to the village, the old village chief was even more excited and repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
"Don't worry, Dr. Yu, I will definitely help you select the most reliable and capable workers!"
"If anyone doesn't work properly, tell me, and I'll smash their head in!"
"..."
at last.
Yu Mingxiang left the old village chief's house amidst his profuse thanks.
Not only did she not give away that pot of old wine, but the old village chief and his wife also insisted on giving her two large cabbages and a piece of cured meat!
Yu Mingxiang: ...
I really didn't want to accept it, but alas...
The country folk's insistence on giving gifts was so intense it was almost like a full-blown fight, and she simply couldn't handle it.
In the end, Yu Mingxiang could only carry the cabbage, wine, and meat home.
As soon as she got home, she was met with Gu Guanhai's teasing gaze.
Gu Guanhai leaned against the doorframe of the main room, watching her with interest. "Did you go to the old village chief's house to collect gifts?"
Yu Mingxiang: ...
His lips twitched, and he said, "I didn't want to accept it either, but I couldn't refuse them."
Gu Guanhai: "Hehe."
He chuckled softly and said, "Just wait, soon, more people will come to give you gifts."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang asked, "??"
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
She had assumed that the people bringing her gifts would be villagers who knew she was opening a workshop and recruiting workers, but unexpectedly, it was...
Several elders from the village!
Several elderly clan elders came together, each carrying a large amount of goods.
Upon seeing Yu Mingxiang, they staggered over and shoved the things into her arms.
"We've all heard Chunsheng say that Dr. Yu is a great benefactor to our Hedao Village!"
"Don't worry, Chunsheng and I will take care of the employment arrangements for you."
“For everyone who comes to work here, we will sign a separate contract with them in the name of Hedao Village to ensure that they will not reveal Dr. Yu’s secret formula for the plaster in the slightest!”
"Our village is sending workers too, boohoo..."
"..."
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
They were surrounded by the warm hospitality of several clan elders.
It was another grand drama of yielding, and then...
Unsurprisingly, it ended in Yu Mingxiang's failure.
The village chief and several elders all pitched in, and soon the news that Yu Mingxiang was going to open a plaster workshop spread throughout the village.
The news caused an uproar throughout the entire village!
Workshop!
Hiring!
This is a chance to go from being a farmer to a worker!
How could the village not be in an uproar?
Unlike the villagers who excitedly spread the news, creating a festive atmosphere like Chinese New Year, Qin Yuzhu, upon hearing the news, exclaimed: "!!!"
His eyes turned red with anger.
"A plaster workshop?"
She angrily smashed dishes and roared, "That bitch Yu Mingxiang actually got an order from the town government to open a plaster workshop? What right does she have?"
In the original novel, Yu Mingxiang, as a tool for the female lead to unexpectedly amass wealth, is indeed very rich, but...
The original book doesn't go into detail about where her wealth came from!
He simply stated that the Qin family had been a family of scholars for generations and was quite wealthy.
She thought...
