Chapter 530 - Arrangements for Chen Jincai
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Chen Jincai’s heart trembled a little under that gaze. She was here. She was indeed here.
As expected, she would complain to his father that he had gone to her in private for the job.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have been so kind. He even told her that someone had designs on her mother.
Gu Yundong did not know that he was mentally prepared to retort at any time. She said to Chen Liang, “Uncle Chen, I have something to discuss with you.” “Yes? Tell me.”
Chen Jincai widened his eyes and hurriedly said, “I don’t think there’s any good business…”
“Here it goes. I’m still lacking someone. I want to find someone experienced to work at my place. Brother Chen is a good person. I wonder if you’re willing to let him come.”
Gu Yundong ignored Chen Jincai and told him her plan.
Chen Jincai was stunned, and so was Chen Liang.
He glanced at his eldest son and frowned.
What did she mean by Brother Chen is a good person? The Gu family’s girl had just returned yesterday evening and came over so early today.
She had never even met Jincai before. How could she have the impression that he was a good person?
This was clearly an excuse for his sake. She must have heard about his family’s matters and was taking care of him.
However, Chen Liang felt that he could not push his luck. Although he was the village chief, he could not have such privileges.
Moreover, his Jinbao was already working in the Gu family’s workshop and had even increased his salary last month.
His eldest son would work there too? That was too unreasonable.
Hence, Chen Liang shook his head. “Gu girl, I know you’re taking care of our family, but there has to be a limit to everything. Your workshop doesn’t lack people now. If you recruit one more person, your family will pay an additional salary. What if others find out and force you to accept them into the workshop? It doesn’t matter if you recruit one, but what about five or ten? That’s not how things work.”
Chen Jincai’s originally happy expression suddenly froze and he turned his head away angrily.
Gu Yundong could not help but laugh. “Uncle Chen, you’re thinking too much. I’m not asking Brother Chen to work at my house for your sake. I do need to recruit people, and they’re not going to the workshop. They’re going to the county city.”
“What? To the county city?”
“That’s right. I plan to open a shop in the prefectural city in a few days. Shopkeeper Zheng in this county city is going to be transferred away. He has experience as a shopkeeper and has worked in the prefectural city in the past. Therefore, isn’t the shop in this county city lacking people? I have to recruit a new one. I thought of Brother Chen. I heard that Brother Chen used to work in town and has someone under him. He must be capable. I’m afraid the position is too insignificant for him.”
“It’s not insignificant at all, it’s not insignificant at all.” Chen Jincai quickly replied. He was full of smiles and almost cheered.
He was really surprised. He did not expect that not only did the Gu family’s younger sister not snitch on him in front of his parents, but she also gave him a job.
As expected, she was indeed someone who did great things.
Chen Liang was also stunned. Go to the prefectural city to open a shop? He had thought about this before and felt that it would happen sooner or later. However, he did not expect it to happen so quickly.
Even Madam Zhou and the others, who had heard the commotion not far away, were very surprised.
But soon, this surprise was replaced by surprise.
Chen Jincai could not help but cough lightly. He tugged at Gu Yundong’s hand slightly and asked, “Um, Sister Gu, so you want me to go straight to the county city as the shopkeeper?”
He could. He could.
Gu Yundong gave him a strange look. Dream on.
