Unexpectedly, there were still people willing to stay. In the end, several people did not leave. There were a total of six people left, all of them were strong young men.
"What do you think? Are you staying here willing to take my test and dig a well?" Xu Zhixin asked the six people who stayed.
The six of us looked at each other and nodded.
One of them discussed with Xu Zhixin, "Director Xu, it is impossible to dig a well ten meters deep in one day. Even a powerful King Kong can't do it. See if you can dig it without getting stuck at ten meters. I will start digging from now on, and I will work hard until dark. No matter how deep it is by dark, you can accept me...
If you must dig ten meters deep, can you give me a few more days? If you give me half a month, I will definitely be able to dig ten meters deep. "
"Director Xu, can we just do as Liu Laoqi said and not get stuck at ten meters deep? We'll dig as deep as we can until dark and you'll accept us. Or you can give us half a month and we guarantee to dig ten meters deep and you'll still accept us." Immediately, the others nodded in agreement and discussed with Xu Zhixin.
"Director Xu, I don't think you are the kind of person who would deliberately play tricks on us. You asked us to dig ten meters a day just to test us and screen out those who don't have the spirit of hard work, perseverance, and persistence...
Keep those who are willing to give it a try, who have the spirit of hard work, perseverance and persistence, and such people are worthy of your chance. "A young man with a short haircut who looked particularly energetic and had a pair of bright eyes guessed.
When the others heard his words, they all nodded in unison and stared at Xu Zhixin, waiting for her answer.
It was because of this guess that they were willing to stay and dig the well.
Xu Zhixin raised the corner of her lips. She didn't expect that there were still a few smart people willing to use their brains to think.
In fact, if you use your brain a little, you will know that she is absolutely clear that it is impossible to dig a ten-meter-deep well in one day. Even if she wants to play a trick on someone, it won't be so obvious. Even if she wants to play a trick on someone, she is giving a chance. She wants to screen out those who are unwilling to endure hardships and have no perseverance and persistence, and give opportunities to the remaining people who are willing to endure hardships and have perseverance and persistence.
Moreover, with so many people digging the well together, and everyone working hard together, it should be no problem to dig five or six meters deep, if not ten meters in a day. Wait until dark and talk to me, beg me for mercy, and ask me to be flexible. Maybe I will agree to admit you.
I haven't seemed like an unsympathetic, harsh and serious person these days.
"Start digging!" Xu Zhixin didn't answer what they just said, but pointed at the circle she drew. "Each of you find a circle I drew to dig in."
She saw that some of them brought hoes and some brought shovels, which could be used to dig wells.
"What about what we discussed with you before, Director Xu, have you agreed? Will we dig until dark and call it a day?" The young man who looked very energetic, with a pair of bright eyes and obviously a smart man asked happily.
Xu Zhixin smiled and nodded, "But it can't be less than two meters, and there are requirements for the width of the well, it must be eighty points wide, and of course you can't ask for help."
Don't think that two meters is not a very deep thing. In fact, it is not easy to dig. The ditches have to be 80 centimeters wide and two meters deep. A strong laborer can barely finish the job after working very hard for a whole day.
"Okay." The six people nodded.
"Thank you, Director Xu, for giving us this opportunity." The young man, who looked very energetic, with bright eyes and obviously a smart man, thanked with gratitude, and the others immediately followed his lead.
"What's your name?" Xu Zhixin asked the young man with bright eyes.
"My name is Kang Baoda!" the young man replied immediately.
Xu Zhixin looked at the other people again, "What are your names?"
"My name is Liu Laoqi."
"My name is Jiang Wei."
"My name is Fang Wengui."
"My name is Chen Daning."
"My name is Yu Dabang."
"I'll remember your names. You can start digging the well now. I have something to do, so I'll leave first. I'll come back when it's almost dark to check on your digging progress. When you dig until noon, you can take a break for an hour and go home for dinner." Xu Zhixin said.
"Okay, Director Xu, take care."
