Chapter 30: Family Selection Contest (1)
The fight just now was so cool that he forgot about the business for a while, and it wasn't until Dong Qingshan mentioned the Xiao family that Lin Wanrong remembered that he still had to "see work". This job has an extraordinary meaning for him, it is to repay Old Man Wei's kindness, but he can't mess it up.
Hurried to the Xiao family, but he was still a step late, and asked a few people next to him, only to know that Lin San's name had already been called.
"Do you think this guy named Lin San is a stupid person?" The guy who was pulled by Lin Wanrong to inquire about the news gloated: "We all came early for the recruitment of the Xiao family, and we can't wait to come to us earlier." As soon as we entered the Xiao family, we were developed, but that Lin San wasted such a great opportunity. Needless to say, it must have been a little girl's bed last night, maybe she hasn't gotten up yet. β
This guy's face was full of smug and lewd smiles, the selection of the Xiao family was fiercely competitive, Lin San automatically abstained, and he had one less competitor, so he was naturally happy in his heart.
Stupid your mother's egg, Lin Wanrong scolded angrily in her heart, just your boy's youthful face fighting "pox", it is strange that the Xiao family chose you.
Lin Wanrong inspected the circle, and sure enough, he didn't see anyone who was late for the job, he was probably an outlier in this selection competition. Looking at the nervous looks of those applicants who applied for the job, Lin Wanrong didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. The smile is that he is late now, if he stops, he doesn't need to go to the Xiao family to do some things to serve people, although it is difficult for Old Man Wei to explain. What I am crying is that once I enter the Xiao family, I am afraid that I will become a bitter gourd face like these prospective brothers.
He lingered in his heart for a while before he said, That's it, that's it, isn't it just a year, it's over if you straighten your waist, but you can't let the blind Uncle Wei look flat.
After making up his mind, he was a little worried, and the current situation was that even if he wanted to go in and serve people, people didn't have to be him. What the hell is going on, Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly in her heart, it seems that she still has to think of a way.
Lin Wanrong looked left and right, and saw that the family and the talents were selected separately. The speed of talent selection is very slow, but the selection of the family in front of him is very fast, and some guys run out in disgrace after less than a minute of entering.
"Brother, what's in it?" Lin Wanrong grabbed a defeated candidate and asked.
The candidate said with a bitter face: "I don't know what to take the test myself, I don't know any of those words, woo." My poor Xiao family Ding Meng, my dream lover Miss Xiao, Miss Xiao Er, Mrs. Xiao, we say goodbye forever, woo-"
Lin Wanrong was stunned and watched the alternate family rush away, this guy's appetite is too big, right?
Lin Wanrong wandered around for a while, and saw a guy who looked like a housekeeper guarding the door of the family's application room, supervising the applicants to enter one by one, with a proud and proud expression.
This housekeeper is nearly forty years old, with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and silver light flashing in his eyes, judging from Lin Wanrong's physiognomy skills, this guy is naturally a person who is good at opportunism.
There is a door! Lin Wanrong smiled, took out a tael of silver from his arms and grabbed it in his hand, walked a few steps quickly, and quietly came to the butler and said, "This housekeeper, please take a step to speak." β
Although this is called a housekeeper, in fact, there is a sub-word in front of him, and his immediate boss, the head of the Xiao family, the housekeeper, went to supervise the recruitment of talents. With the experience of this deputy butler, of course he knows that as long as he has the name of the Xiao family's chief butler, he is definitely a sought-after commodity among the talents.
Those talented people are generous, in order to get the favor of the eldest lady, don't they all rush to slap the housekeeper? In this way, the housekeeper has at least eighty to one hundred taels of silver in a day.
This deputy housekeeper hates the sub-word in front, supervising the application of the family, this kind of errand without oil and water, of course, it is his turn to do it. At the end of the day, I only had a mere five taels of silver in my hand, which was still a lot of broken silver. He itched the teeth that these poor people hated, but there was no way, could the people who came to apply for the examination be rich?
"What's the matter with youβ" Before he finished speaking, the deputy housekeeper saw a flash of silver light in Lin Wanrong's hand.
"Hmm-" The deputy butler's eyes lit up, and he took a few steps and said, "If you have anything, you can tell me quickly, I'm still busy with work." β
Lin Wanrong made a move for one or two pieces of silver, although it was still a lot less than those talents, but in this Ding application group, it was definitely a generous shot.
This kid has a future, and for the sake of the silver, the deputy housekeeper immediately had a "good impression" of this kid with a little healthy skin. β
"What's the matter?" The deputy butler said in an official tone, taking advantage of people's inattention, and quietly pocketed a tael of silver.
It's easy to do after collecting the money, Lin Wanrong knew it, and hurriedly hugged her fists and said, "I don't know what this housekeeper is called." β
"My surname is Pang, and I am appreciated by the old ladies and sisters, and I am the deputy housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion." Deputy Butler Pang said with an arrogant face, but when he said the sub-word, a trace of indignation flashed in his eyes, obviously he was deeply dissatisfied with this sub-word.
"It turns out that you are Steward Pang," Lin Wanrong looked at him and exclaimed, as if he hadn't heard the word "deputy" in front of him at all: "Oh, your name is really thunderous, it's better to be famous than to meet, and it's better to meet than to be famous." β
Deputy Butler Pang looked at him strangely and said, "You know me?" β
Lin Wanrong had a mesmerizing smile on her face: "Of course." Although I haven't met you, who in this Jinling City doesn't know the name of your huge butler. Righteous liver and loyalty, righteousness and thin clouds, single-minded, loyal to the country, good name spread all over the world. β
Anyway, it doesn't cost money to say a few words, Lin Wanrong boldly and shamelessly praised this deputy housekeeper.
The deputy butler Pang was even more shameless, he smiled at these words, nodded, and actually accepted it alive.
Lin Wanrong looked at his face, thicker than me, this guy is really hopeless.
Lin Wanrong glanced around, and then secretly leaned into the ear of Deputy Butler Pang and said, "Moreover, I heard from friends in the family Ding world that this housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion should have been yours." But last time that fellow played a despicable trick and deceived Madame, and rode on your head. That guy is really despicable and shameless, and I saw him flatten him one at a time. β
There is an inherent contradiction between the main position and the deputy position, and he has seen this kind of thing countless times. What's more, this deputy butler Pang was born with a mean appearance, saying that he did not covet the position of the housekeeper, absolutely no one believed it.
"Don't talk nonsenseβ" Deputy Butler Pang pretended to be righteous and awe-inspiring, "Unity is very important. Steward Wang and I are working together, and our relationship is very harmonious. Under the leadership of the leadership team with me and Steward Wang as the core, the combat effectiveness of the Xiao family is very strong, I and Steward Wang have cooperated very well, and Miss and Mrs. also trust us very much. It was just a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, but it revealed his thoughts.
"That's, that's-" Lin Wanrong smiled at his words with great flattery: "You work together in a team and lead hundreds of family members of the Xiao family, and your feelings are naturally quite deep. β
