Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong intended to train Tong An to be the manager of the workshop. This time, she might as well let him record everything during the recruitment.
Tong An was very nervous. He had always been the type to work silently. He did not expect his boss to value him so much.
Now that he was holding the brush, he had to restrain himself with all his might to not tremble.
The crowd in front was noisy. The young lady was talking and answering many people’s questions.
Suddenly, a cup of water appeared in front of him. Tong An looked up and saw Shen Sitian pointing at it. “This is jasmine tea. Try it. If you’re still nervous, you can take a deep breath or hold your hands tightly. It might be useful if you tense up your body for a while.”
Tong An was stunned. He subconsciously did as she said and actually felt much better.
He raised his head in surprise and said gratefully, “Thank you, Miss Shen.”
“No need. A doctor told me this before. If you’re nervous in the future, it’ll be much better when you do this.”
Shen Sitian smiled and handed another cup of water to Gu Yundong. When she saw Shao Qingyuan, she silently handed the cup to Ah Mao and asked him to pass it to him.
Shao Qingyuan had brought Ah Mao to suppress the situation. He was afraid that there would be people like the Li family who didn’t know what was good for them and came to cause trouble.
As expected, with him around, it was as if there was a stabilizing force. At least, after the Li family came over to take a look, they immediately shrank back.
The villagers had already lined up obediently. Gu Yundong took a look and said, “The Gu family’s workshop is for food, so the minimum requirement is to dress neatly and cleanly. Those who can wring a pile of mud out of their sleeves don’t have to queue.”
The crowd immediately buzzed, especially those who had not showered, washed their hair, and changed their clothes for a few days. They immediately wished they could hide their sleeves.
Slowly, some people came out of the group, and a few people simply ran home and quickly washed their hair and changed their clothes before coming back again.
But Gu Yundong would not wait for them.
She began to call for people and ask about their situations. Although she had given preferential treatment to her fellow villagers this time, if there was anyone good in the neighboring villages, she would naturally want them.
After stating her basic request, she sat at the side and waited for Tong An to handle everything.
After relieving his nervousness, Tong An raised his brush again. It actually made people feel uneasy when facing him.
As long as he asked, the villagers would answer honestly.
Tong An nodded as he took notes. When he felt that someone was capable, he would make them stand on the left and wait for Gu Yundong’s screening.
However, just as he chose the 15th person, Gu Yundong suddenly said, “Not this person.”
Tong An was not the only one who was stunned. The villager also looked up in surprise.
He thought that he was dressed appropriately and was clean. His hair had just been washed this morning, and he was much more energetic than the previous candidate.
Moreover, he had the experience of doing short-term work outside. He was also agile and wouldn’t slack off. Why didn’t she want him?
When the Gu family recruited short-term workers, if he hadn’t already found a job in the county city, he wouldn’t have missed it. This time, he was originally full of confidence. After all, compared to Wang Shuanzi, who was next door, he felt that he had a lot of advantages.
Even though he was afraid of Shao Qingyuan, this person couldn’t help but ask, “Why? Why don’t you want me? Which part of me doesn’t meet the requirements?”
Shao Qingyuan frowned. That person was terrified and could not help but take a small step back. However, he still looked at Gu Yundong stubbornly..
