The sauce workshop was completed, and the man who worked it thought that he would go out to find a job again. Received the news that the factory needs to recruit workers, and anyone who is suitable can sign up.

If they are all interested in doing this job, they don't need to apply again, and they will have a place directly.

Those men all looked happy, and they all went to work in the sauce workshop.

Wei Cheng also agreed, but Wei Cheng didn't let the three brother-in-laws enter the sauce workshop, but talked with them alone for a while, and they followed Wei Cheng's arrangement.

Wei Cheng announced the news that the sauce workshop would recruit workers to the market. After hearing the news, the men who couldn't find a job and those who were looking for a job all asked what the requirements were, when and where they would be recruited.

Fortunately, it is written in the notice issued.

Everyone in the market knows that a large workshop has been newly established in the suburbs. According to sources, the owner behind this workshop is Taifulou, the largest restaurant in the county.

Anyone who wants to inquire about what the workshop does should stop, so as not to offend Tai Fu Lou.

Job recruitment information is spread all over the country. Those who can't find a job and those who meet the requirements want to try their luck.

As a result, hundreds of people came on the day of the job recruitment. Although some people were selfish and worried that others would grab their jobs, they silently concealed the job recruitment news, otherwise more people would come.

Seeing so many people, Zhou Yuan was too timid to go.

Wei Cheng was also surprised that so many people came.

There are only 20 recruits for the sauce workshop, and there are a few people who helped build the workshop before, Aunt Yang's son, family helper He Fan's husband Yang Dashan, and the remaining 13 places.

After thinking about it for a while, Wei Cheng asked Wei Hu and Wei Yi to set up two more tables to set up two new recruitment positions. Wei Yi knew how to write, and asked him to write down the type and requirements of the job being recruited. They were hiring long-term workers for the workshop at home, and recruiting chefs and waiter workers for shops in the county.

Since there are so many people here, we might as well recruit them together.

Those who came to apply for the job were all from the country, and basically could not read. A few men who could read read out the posted job requirements and positions. Some people couldn't hear them, so they all asked. There were more than a hundred people, and the men's voices were loud and noisy.

Wei Cheng ordered Wei Hu, Wei Hu stood up, his voice was very penetrating, and directly suppressed the place.

"Everyone is quiet, if you keep making noise, leave me."

The stern-faced Wei Hu's aura is quite capable of bluffing.

Hearing Wei Hu's words, the commentators dared not speak up, for fear of being driven away and losing their jobs.

Wei Hute was satisfied that these people were obedient, and nodded his head seriously, as if he was in charge.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Wei Hu explained to his master and read aloud the requirements and positions of the recruiters. The sauce workshop and Wei Cheng's workshop were 30 yuan a day, including lunch. A restaurant costs 30 cents a day and three meals a day, and you must have worked as a handyman in a restaurant before you can apply for the job. After reading it, he said: "Whatever job you want to apply for, just line up in which team, and start now."

Everyone lined up one after another.

They all thought Wei Hu was recruiting workers, but when they saw that someone else was recruiting workers, and there was a brother, some men wanted to protest.

Wei Hu's task is to suppress the field, and anyone who makes trouble can be driven away. However, he still explained first that he can leave if he has any opinions.

Who dares to protest.

Many people who came to apply for jobs were from Weicheng Village and Zhouyuan Village. Weicheng Village was dumbfounded to see Wei Cheng and Wei Lei recruiting workers, and they wanted to make friends.

Seeing Wei Hu staring at him and chasing people after causing trouble, he didn't dare to move around, and lined up obediently, even if he was full of question marks, he had to wait for their turn to ask.

Zhou Yuan is a brother, and the people in Zhou Yuan's village can't get close. They are all annoyed that they didn't know in advance, and they can ask Zhou's family to help them through the back door.

Zhou Yuan had the most people in the queue, while Wei Lei had the least. He was in charge of recruiting long-term workers. Long-term workers had to sign contracts for too long. They were relatively half-house slaves, and most people would not be willing.

On Zhou Yuan's side, Wei Yi and the maid Xiaoliu were there to help, and Wei Hu was standing in front of him. Those men who despised their brother, no matter how reluctant they were, they would obediently answer the questions.

On the other side of Weicheng, the people from Weicheng Village finally lined up, and the person said excitedly: "Weicheng, you are recruiting here. We are in the same village, so you must recruit me."

When the people in the queue heard it, they thought there was one less quota, and couldn't help being anxious.

Wei Cheng didn't speak, but Wei Hu's voice came over: "You, you are you, whether you understand the rules or not, don't say there are some, just answer the questions, and leave if you don't want to answer."

It doesn't need Wei Cheng to say, there is Wei Hu, a person who is obsessed with carrying out orders, as long as Wei Cheng doesn't speak, he will carry out to the end, and anyone who wants to get close is afraid to speak out.

Seeing Wei Hu giving orders, everyone thought that Wei Hu was in charge, and Wei Cheng was only responsible for recruiting workers and had no rights.

After rounds of screening, the right person is selected.

Those who failed the election had no choice but to go back in despair, except for a few neighbors and a few aunts in Weicheng, none of their sons were recruited, and they gathered together to make trouble.

Who asked them to apply for the workers in the sauce workshop, and the number of people to be recruited was very small.

"This is our workshop in the suburbs. Why do we recruit people from other villages but not us? Everyone in our family meets the requirements. If we don't recruit our family members, we will definitely ask for an explanation."

Who cares who you are.

"Yes, Mrs. Yang is right. We are all residents in the suburbs, and the workers in the suburbs should recruit us first, not outsiders."

"Yeah, why don't you recruit us, don't give us an explanation, we'll just hang around at the door of the workshop and see how you get in and out."

Wei Cheng sat on his seat, watching the troublemakers coldly.

The servants of Wei Cheng's family saw that Wei Cheng hadn't spoken, so they stood aside. There were also a few servants arranged by Steward Quan, all of whom were ordered by Steward Quan to obey Wei Cheng.

Wei Hu came to the town, and someone made trouble, and he approached aggressively, the troublemaker thought he was going to beat someone, and the troublemaker yelled loudly: "Oh, I'm going to beat someone, the workshop manager is going to beat someone up!" people-"

Wei Hu is the first to execute orders, but he doesn't know how to deal with this situation. His master told him to suppress the field, but didn't tell him to beat anyone!

And this man falsely accuses him of—

Wei Cheng waved his hand, motioning Wei Hu to step aside.

Seeing Wei Hu backing away, the rioters thought Wei Hu didn't dare to do anything to them, so they yelled even louder.

Wei Cheng got up, walked out of his seat slowly, and stood in front of the recruitment desk.

He knew the person who took the lead in making trouble and made the loudest noises. It was his neighbor Aunt Yang, and other people were the old ladies who often gathered at the door of Aunt Yang's house to make irresponsible remarks, and their sons who came to answer the job.

When Aunt Yang saw Wei Cheng coming out, she felt a drum in her heart.

She scolded him in front of Wei Cheng as a poor countryman.

She saw that Wei Cheng was in charge of recruiting workers, and another rich young master went to Wei Cheng's house that day, and thought that Wei Cheng became the subordinate of that rich young master, so she wasn't afraid to look coldly at Wei Cheng, but she didn't know why she had a bad feeling.

"Wei Cheng, don't think that I'm afraid of you because you're flattering the young master of the rich family. Call the person in charge out."

Wei Cheng said in a deep voice, "I am the person in charge."

How could Aunt Yang believe it, she sneered: "You are the person in charge, aren't you just a servant working for the rich young master, the person behind you is more like the person in charge than you."

The servants of Wei Cheng's family had different expressions, and they all felt that this arrogant lady was out of her mind.

I didn't see that the person in charge you mentioned backed up.

Wei Hu got angry, and said angrily, "You mother-in-law, why are you so blind? I don't look like the person in charge. I'm just a person in charge." Then he pointed at Wei Cheng, "This is my master, I don't know how to use my eyes to see. , What's the use of having eyes!"

 …

It turns out that Wei Hu's mouth is very poisonous!

pooh-

I don't know who laughed out loud.

Looking over, she saw Xiaoliu covering her mouth, and seeing her master glance over, she immediately stood upright, with her head bowed, for fear of being punished by the master.

Wei Cheng didn't blame him, because he saw his daughter-in-law pursing her lips and smiling.

Looking back, Wei Cheng said: "Ms. Yang, I am the one who decides the workshop. If I say no, I won't recruit. If you have an opinion, you can make trouble. If you make trouble for a long time, I will see it as an eyesore. You just wait to enter the yamen."

The tone of Wei Cheng's words was very flat, but his cold eyes made people feel timid.

"...I, I don't believe it. If I stand here and don't leave, you will sue me to the yamen, and the yamen can't control me standing here." Aunt Yang lost her momentum, and she was timid when she heard the yamen.

"The yamen is out of control. You take the lead in making troubles and making a scene here. Do you think the yamen has the right to manage it?"

"...I didn't make trouble, so I just... just stood here and didn't leave. Are you in control?" Aunt Yang thought to herself, if she doesn't make trouble, it depends on what people can do to her.

She led people across the entrance and exit of the workshop, this is not a workshop place, they have no control over it.

"I, Wei Cheng, really manage it." Wei Cheng sneered, "Your position, including this area, is the land under the name of this workshop. If you continue to stand here, I can go to the Yamen to sue you for trespassing private place."

He and Yun Chengfeng bought all the wasteland in the suburbs.

Aunt Yang and the troublemakers were dumbfounded.

They are not really ignorant. If they are really reported to the Yamen, saying that they trespassed on private places, they will be locked up in jail.

The troublemakers were all scared, they were also instigated by Aunt Yang to make trouble, saying that the trouble would not go away, occupying the road, the workshop could not start smoothly, and the other party would definitely compromise and recruit their family members.

I didn't know that the place to rely on turned out to be private land.

The troublemaker put on a face and begged for help.

"We are all neighbors in Weicheng, so just let us go this time."

"Your Excellency don't care about us little people, don't sue the Yamen, we won't make trouble anymore, we will leave now."

Those who were frightened quickly expressed their opinions, for fear that Wei Cheng would get angry and send them directly to the yamen.

Wei Cheng looked at them coldly, and said in a deep voice, "You are all neighbors, for the sake of our being neighbors, I don't mind this time."

The troublemakers in the suburbs thanked each other.

"but-"

The hearts of those who caused disturbances in the suburbs were raised.

"I don't want it to happen again." Wei Cheng suppressed, and then sweetened, "This is the first batch of workers recruited by the workshop, and more workers will be recruited in the future. Anyone who meets the requirements will be registered. If the workshop If there is a need for recruitment, priority will be given to those who meet the requirements.”

"I didn't recruit you this time because the recruited people are more suitable than you."

He still stayed where he was and didn't leave. Hearing that he would recruit next time, he was very happy. If he didn't make it this time, he still had a chance next time.

The people in the suburbs were also happy. It turned out that there was still a chance, and they were secretly glad that Wei Cheng was not offended.

Aunt Yang's face was ashen, she had completely offended Wei Cheng, and she took her son away in desperation.

Everyone else dispersed.

Wei Cheng threw all the rosters to Wei Lei, and asked him to send the rosters of the sauce workshop to Taifulou, not under his control.

Others must arrange pre-job training.

The chef of the restaurant was not found, so he had to continue recruiting.

Throw them all to Wei Lei.

After a busy day, I finally have time to be alone with my wife.

Wei Cheng took his wife home.

The news of Weicheng's recruitment spread.

The people in Weicheng Village felt sorry for not establishing a good relationship in advance.

Wei Cheng is promising, he used to be in business, but now he's hooked up with some big shot, the person in charge of a workshop in the capital.

No matter how the villagers guessed, they couldn't guess one of Wei Cheng's bosses.

Qinghe Village, Zhou's family.

Wei Cheng recruited workers and did not let his family members go to work. Zhou Yuan's three sister-in-laws heard the rumors outside, ran home in a hurry, and questioned them directly.

"Wei Cheng is recruiting workers for the workshop. Why didn't he ask you to apply for the job? He also said that he was from his own family. You didn't have a job, and Wei Cheng didn't arrange for it."

Zhou Yuan's three elder brothers looked at the three angry people who ran in front of them.

Zhou Yong was very disappointed with his wife's attitude, and thought that during this period of time, there had been some restraint and changes. It turns out that the person still hasn't changed, and still has that strong and natural attitude.

Zhou Yong glanced at her, and that glance made Mrs. Zhou Yuan's heart skip a beat.

Zhou's mother and Zhou's father also came back. They also heard rumors from the village and came to inquire about their son. They just came back from work in Weicheng, so they should know about the recruitment of workers in the workshop.

How could the three brothers know about the recruitment of workers in the workshop, and Zhou Yong explained to his parents: "Wei Cheng let us choose to work in the workshop, or wait for him to arrange another job next month to learn to be a trade worker. If it is a month Finally, we felt that workshop work was more suitable for us, and he would arrange for us to enter the workshop.”

"We discussed and waited for a month. This month, Wei Cheng asked us to study there. There will be no wages, and only three meals will be provided."

After hearing what their son said, Zhou's mother and Zhou's father also felt that it would be better if they could learn how to trade, rather than working in a workshop all the time. And if you choose not to do business for a month, you can choose again.

Father Zhou said: "The three of you should learn from your son-in-law. This is a rare opportunity."

All three brothers responded.

Zhou Lanlan didn't take it seriously when she heard about Wei Cheng.

As long as she is in charge, not just a servant, it doesn't matter if she is promising, she, Zhou Lanlan, can marry into a wealthy family in the county, and that family has a few shops in the county, as long as she nods and agrees.

Zhou Lanlan wanted to procrastinate. She heard family members talking about her elder brother being admitted to be a scholar next year. If her brother was admitted to be a scholar, then she would be the scholar's sister and the young lady of the scholar's family. Maybe it would be better to propose marriage at that time.

That's why she procrastinated and refused to agree to the proposal over there.

Zhou Lanlan sat and chatted with the sisters in the village.

Li Zhiqing was also there, but she hesitated to speak, biting her lip.

Zhou Lanlan: "Zhiqing, do you have any questions?" Her tone was a little haughty.

Li Zhiqing gritted her teeth and asked, "Lan Lan, your brother is going to be a scholar tomorrow, his business..."

She also hoped to rely on Zhou Lanlan to make a relationship, otherwise, if Brother Zhou Lanlan really got admitted to the scholar, she would have no hope at all.

Zhou Lanlan: "Zhiqing, do you want to ask about my brother's marriage? I heard from my mother that my brother seems to have a crush on a wealthy daughter in the county, and he will propose marriage only after he is admitted to a scholar next year." The tone was extremely perfunctory, as if a little impatient .

Li Zhiqing's face was pale, and her heart felt cold.

She thought that by being close to Zhou Lanlan, she would be able to get in touch with brother Zhou Lanlan more, and then slowly develop feelings for him. But elder brother Zhou Lanlan was studying in the county town, so he seldom came back and saw him seldom. Now that Zhou Lanlan had such an attitude, she didn't understand, she had no chance at all.

The chef of the store was found, and it was recommended by the shopkeeper Fu, who is the apprentice of the master chef of Taifu.

If there is a chef, Wei Cheng must personally teach the menu designed by him.

The instructors teach in the big kitchen over there in their own workshop shop.

Wei Yuan's family also moved in, and Wei Lei also moved in. When they came to Weicheng to teach chefs, the aroma of the food they made made them salivate, waiting to eat.

Wei Cheng is a kind person, and everyone can get food.

Whether it's Wei Yuan's family, Wei Lei, or the servants, they are all full of praise. Wei Hu's stupid brother even uses the sauce for bibimbap, and he burps when he is satisfied.

Wei Cheng is designing the menu, many ingredients need to use dried seafood, which can enhance the freshness, and the workshop at home can also start work. It's time to go to the pier to get some seafood and then process it into dried goods.

Wei Cheng took Wei Lei, Wei Hu, and Wei Jin over there, but Wei Yi had trouble walking, so he didn't take anyone there.

The wharf market is very messy, especially the place where seafood is sold. The fishy smell of seafood is mixed together, and the smell is not good.

There are a lot of fish, and fresh shrimps have been used for food since Wei Cheng's stall, more and more fresh shrimps are sold than before, and the prices have also increased, and many people from fishing villages come to sell them.

His family has Heizi's family who provide fresh shrimp. If the store opens, it will use a lot of fresh shrimp. He has to sign a contract with Heizi's family. If there is a large amount, he has to sign the contract, and heizi's father will help him buy fresh shrimp in the fishing village.

Fresh shrimp can be eaten a lot, and it can also be made into dry goods to enhance freshness.

Wei Cheng wandered around the fish stalls on the wharf, but still couldn't find what he wanted.

"Leizi, where is the wharf where the cargo ships are docked?"

Wei Cheng can only look for cargo ships that transport seafood to the pier for sale. Wei Lei is the most familiar with the pier, so it is most suitable to ask him.

Wei Lei really knew there was a place where cargo ships were docked.

It is the most remote corner of the pier, because the seafood smells bad, so it can only be docked in the most inconspicuous corner of the pier.

Seafood stalls in the county town will go there to choose fresh fish.

When they arrived, the ground was wet, the smell was heavier, and there was a smell of dead fish.

There are a lot of unwanted small fish and shells littering the ground...

Weicheng is looking for scallops, sea shells, and squid... These are the most suitable seafood, and they can also be sold as dry goods.

As far as his workshop is concerned, he has a workshop that can dry goods. It was originally used to dry mountain goods to make finished products for sale, and it was first used to dry seafood.

He knew that the most expensive seafood in the Great Jingguo was abalone, shark's fin, and all kinds of rare fish. These are all fresh products, there are no dry products, let alone scallops, isinglass, shredded squid and other ingredients that are indispensable for cooking?

If it hadn't been for the backwardness of the ancient times, there was no large ship to salvage deep-sea fish. If there were, he would want to harvest the good ingredients in the sea.

...Let's look for fresh seafood.
