He was having a great time fighting just now and forgot about the business. It was not until Dong Qingshan mentioned the Xiao Family that Lin Wanrong remembered that he still had to "see the job". This job was of special significance to him. It was to repay Old Man Wei's kindness, so he couldn't mess it up.
He hurried to the Xiao Family, but he was still one step late. After asking a few people next to him, he found out that Lin San's name had already been called.
"Do you think this guy named Lin San is an idiot?" The guy who was stopped by Lin Wanrong for information said gloatingly, "We all came early for the recruitment of the Xiao Family. We can't wait to be here as soon as possible. Once we enter the Xiao Family, we will be rich, but that Lin San wasted such a great opportunity. Needless to say, he must have crawled into a girl's bed last night. Maybe he hasn't woken up yet. "
The guy's face was full of a smug and obscene smile. The competition for the Xiao Family's servants was fierce. Lin San voluntarily gave up, so he had one less competitor. He was naturally happy.
"Stupid your mother!" Lin Wanrong cursed in his heart. "With your pimple-like youthful face, it would be strange if the Xiao Family chose you."
Lin Wanrong looked around and really didn't see any late applicants. He was probably an exception in this selection. Looking at the nervous faces of those servants, Lin Wanrong didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. He should laugh because he was late now. If he gave up now, he wouldn't have to go to the Xiao Family to serve people, although it would be hard to explain it to Old Man Wei. What he was crying about was that once he entered the Xiao Clan, he would probably end up like these would-be servants, with a bitter face.
His mind wandered for a while before he said, "Forget it, forget it, it's just a year, it'll be over if I straighten my back. I can't let the blind Uncle Wei look down on me."
After he made up his mind, he was a little worried. The current situation was that even if he wanted to go in and serve people, they might not necessarily want him. What the hell is this? Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly in his heart. It seemed that he still had to think of a way.
Lin Wanrong looked left and right and saw that the servants and scholars were selected separately. The speed of the selection of talents was very slow, but the selection of the servants was very fast. Some fellows went in for less than a minute and ran out with their faces covered in dirt.
"Brother, what will be tested inside?" Lin Wanrong asked a servant candidate who had retreated in defeat.
The servant candidate said with a bitter face, "I don't know what I'm going to be tested on. I don't recognize any of those words. Sob sob, my poor Xiao Family servant dream, my dream lover Lady Xiao, Miss Xiao, Lady Xiao, goodbye forever, sob sob — — "
Lin Wanrong watched in shock as the servant candidate dashed away. This fellow's appetite was too big. The mother and daughter of the Xiao Family had all become his dream lovers?
Lin Wanrong wandered around and saw a fellow who looked like a housekeeper guarding the door of the servant recruitment room. He was supervising the servants who applied to enter one by one. He had an arrogant expression on his face and was extraordinarily pleased with himself.
This housekeeper was close to forty years old. He had a protruding mouth and monkey cheeks. His eyes flashed with silver light. Using Lin Wanrong's ability to judge people, this fellow was born to be an opportunistic person.
There's a chance! Lin Wanrong chuckled and took out a tael of silver from his bosom. He walked quickly to the side of the housekeeper and said, "Sir Housekeeper, may I have a word with you?"
Even though this person was called a housekeeper, there was actually the word 'Assistant' in front of his title. His immediate superior, the head of the Xiao Family servants — — Sir Housekeeper had gone to supervise the candidates. With this Assistant Housekeeper's experience, he naturally knew that as long as one had the title of Head Housekeeper of the Xiao Family, one would definitely be a hot commodity among the candidates.
Those candidates were generous. In order to gain the Grand Mistress's favor, didn't they all fight to curry favor with this Sir Housekeeper? Based on this calculation, this Sir Housekeeper would earn at least eighty to a hundred taels of silver a day.
This Assistant Housekeeper hated the word 'Assistant' in front of his title. Supervising the servants applying for jobs, this kind of unprofitable job, naturally fell into his hands. After a day, he only had a mere five taels of silver in his hands, and it was a large amount of broken silver. He hated these poor servants so much that his teeth itched, but he couldn't do anything about it. How could those who applied to be servants be rich?
"What do you want — —" Before he could finish, the Assistant Housekeeper saw a flash of silver in Lin Wanrong's hands.
"Oh — —" The Assistant Housekeeper's eyes lit up. He walked a few steps and said, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, I'm still busy with work."
Lin Wanrong took out a tael of silver in one go. Even though it was much less than the other candidates, it was definitely considered generous among the servants applying for jobs.
This kid has a bright future. For the sake of the silver, the Assistant Housekeeper immediately had a 'good impression' of this kid with healthy skin.
"What is it?" The Assistant Housekeeper spoke in a bureaucratic tone. While no one was paying attention, he quietly pocketed the tael of silver.
Lin Wanrong knew what to do after taking the money. He hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "May I know how to address you, Sir Housekeeper?"
"My surname is Pang. Thanks to Master and Madam's appreciation, I am now Xiao Fu's Assistant Housekeeper." Assistant Housekeeper Pang said arrogantly. However, when he said the word 'Assistant', his eyes flashed with a hint of anger. It was obvious that he was deeply dissatisfied with the word 'Assistant'.
"So you are Housekeeper Pang." Lin Wanrong looked at him in surprise. It was as if he didn't hear the word 'Assistant'. "Aiya, your name is really well-known. It's really better to meet you in person than to hear about you in person."
Assistant Housekeeper Pang looked at him strangely and said, "You know me?"
Lin Wanrong had a charming smile on his face. "Of course. Even though I haven't met you before, everyone in Jin Ling City knows about your great housekeeper. Loyal, courageous, loyal, loyal to the country, your reputation has spread far and wide. "
Anyway, it wasn't like he had to spend money to say a few words. Lin Wanrong shamelessly praised Assistant Housekeeper Pang.
But Assistant Housekeeper Pang was even more shameless. Those few words made Lin Wanrong smile. He nodded and accepted it.
Lin Wanrong looked at Assistant Housekeeper Pang's face and thought, 'Fuck, thicker than me. This guy is really hopeless.'
Lin Wanrong looked around and then secretly whispered in Assistant Housekeeper Pang's ear, "Also, I heard from my friend that Xiao Fu's housekeeper was supposed to be you. But last time, that guy used despicable means to deceive Madam and Young Mistress. That's why he got you. That guy is really despicable. Every time I see him, I beat him up. "
In Lin Wanrong's original world, there was a natural conflict between the head and the assistant. He had seen this kind of thing countless times. Not to mention that Assistant Housekeeper Pang was born with a mean face. No one would believe that he didn't want the position of housekeeper.
"Don't talk nonsense — —" Assistant Housekeeper Pang pretended to be righteous and said, "unity is very important. Housekeeper Wang and I work together, and we have a very good relationship. Under the leadership of me and Steward Wang as the core, the fighting strength of the Xiao Family's servants is very strong. Steward Wang and I work together and cooperate very well. The organization also trusts us very much. "Only, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it revealed his thoughts.
"That's right, that's right — —" Lin Wanrong said with a flattering smile. "You work together in the same team, and you lead hundreds of Xiao Family's housekeepers. Of course, your relationship is very deep."
