The first applicant walked into the room, a tall and thin figure, wearing a loose linen jacket, the trouser legs were also a little long, covering the ankles, and wearing a fedora on his head.

"You may be seated."

Mavi motioned for him to sit on a chair in the center of the room and asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Hunt... Hunter Pearson. ”

"What did you do before?"

"Workers in the distillery..."

"Do you know how to make wine?"

"It's not," Hunter Pearson bowed his head, "I'm helping with the cargo." ”

"Do you have any special skills?"

"Nope."

Ma Wei and Hunter Pearson asked questions and answers sentence by sentence, speaking quickly, Abigail, who was sitting next to him, quickly recorded the man's name and personal information briefly, Stewart drank coffee, and after hearing that the man was just a worker carrying goods, he slowly shook his head, obviously not satisfied.

Manstein Potions does need porters, and any factory needs workers to contribute, but Hunter Pearson is too thin, more than 1.8 meters tall, and weighs more than 100 pounds at most, this kind of figure does not meet Stewart's requirements.

"I'm done, Stuart, do you have anything to add?" After a brief inquiry, Mavey looked at Stewart.

"I don't have anything to add." Stewart said.

"Then Mr. Hunter, you can go, and if you pass the interview, we will contact you." Ma Wei said.

"Oh..."

Hunter Pearson grabbed his fedora and stood up, and walked tremblingly towards the outside of the conference room, and as soon as he got out, Stewart said, "What does he think, Potions companies need skilled people!" At the very least, be a pharmacist who can dispense medicines! A worker who will only contribute .... Want to get paid 4 pounds a week? ”

Ma Wei suddenly said: "I think he's not bad. ”

"What?"

"Judging by the way he dresses, he is obviously a poor man, and he doesn't even have the money to buy a set of clothes that fit, and he must have lived a very poor life, although he is thin, but the thin man is also powerful, at least I have seen a worker who looks thin lifting goods heavier than himself...."

"But we can recruit better workers for the same salary!"

Just because you can find something better doesn't mean you can find someone as reliable as Hunter Pearson.

Mixed up like this, it must not be a spy sent by other forces!

"Tentatively, I didn't say that I had to recruit him."

Marvey drew a circle on Hunter Pearson's name: "Next!" ”

One by one, candidates entered the conference room, and soon it was close to noon, and after interviewing one candidate, Stewart stretched and proposed, "Nicholas, are you hungry?" Why don't you take a break and head to the Sauvy Hotel across the street for lunch before continuing in the afternoon? ”

"You and Abigail go, time is pressing, there are still many people in line behind, try to get it done today."

"You're not going.... I didn't go either, so I asked the waiter at the Sovay Hotel to bring my lunch. ”

Stewart leaves the room and returns a short time later, bringing back Unity, Incoming, and Daniel.

"Daddy!"

Yunia threw herself into Mavi's arms and said with a grin, "I want to eat cake!" ”

Ma Wei looked at Stewart, and Stewart hurriedly said, "I ordered a cake for her, and when I went out just now, I happened to bump into them, and I knew that I was looking for you, so I brought them in." ”

Mavi was not surprised by the arrival of Yunia and the others, and after moving a few chairs for them to sit down, he continued to interview candidates, and this time it was none other than Jacob Valentine who walked into the room.

I haven't seen him for a long time, but Ma Wei still recognizes him at a glance, wearing that old-fashioned gray tweed coat, full of beard, and a wine trough nose, fatter than a year ago, with wider cheeks and a round belly, if you don't look carefully, you really can't recognize him.

Looking at each other, Jacob did not recognize Mavi's identity, and in the letter, Mavi only asked him to come to London to pay attention to the information, and the newspaper job advertisement contained the hint given by Mavi.

Jacob, who saw the prompt, of course came to today's interview.

"You may be seated, what's your name?"

Mavi began his usual inquiry, showing no signs of surprise or delight.

"My name is Steven Thomas."

Jacob's gaze swept over the faces of Mavi, Stewart, Yunia, and Communication, and after finding no familiar faces, he said with some disappointment: "I'm afraid I'm in the wrong place, I'm sorry." ”

"Ahem." Ma Wei cleared his throat, "Mr. Steven Valentine, aren't you here for an interview?" ”

"Nicholas, you're calling the wrong name...."Stewart reminded in a whisper, "His name is Steven Thomas, not Valentine...."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I interviewed too many people today and accidentally got mixed up."

Smiling, Ma Wei looked up at Jacob Valentin, who turned to look at him, and asked again: "Mr. Steven, didn't you come to our company for an interview?" ”

"Yes, yes! I'm here for an interview! ”

Jacob's cheeks flushed slightly, and he seemed to be very excited, he forced his excitement down, returned to his seat, and became much more positive: "What are the requirements for entering your company?" ”

"Our Manstein Potions company has just been established, and many of the workstations are available, so it depends on what the candidate will be."

Tapping the brush on the table, Ma Wei asked, "Do you have any special skills?" ”

"I'm a mason, and I can make wine!"

"Oh, mason...."Ma Wei nodded slowly, recording the message: "Literate?" ”

Some of the candidates who came for the interview saw the information in the newspaper by themselves, and some came through the introduction of others, who can read the newspaper and are naturally literate, but it is not necessarily the case through the introduction of others.

Literate candidates can hold far more positions than illiterate candidates, you must know that even the most economically developed kingdom of Windsor, the literacy rate does not exceed 50%, and the Romanov kingdom is even worse, the literacy rate is not even 10%.

"I can read the newspaper." Jacob said, "I spent some time in the church's Sunday school as a child. ”

"Sunday school?" Stewart's eyes lit up: "Are you a believer in the church?" ”

"Yes, I, Steven Thomas, am a believer in the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny and believe...."

Jacob moved his gaze to Mavi, who quietly raised two fingers, and Jacob said understandingly, "Believe in Nanelde, the goddess of wealth." ”

Hearing this, Stewart was even more satisfied: "Yes, it can be seen that you are a devout believer, but unfortunately you have too few skills and can hold not many positions..."

"You can get him to work in the Potions Factory."

"He's a mason, what is he going to do in the factory?"

"Making potions, in addition to knowing a lot of relevant knowledge, the most important thing is to have a steady hand and endure loneliness, mixing potions is not an easy job, the mason can do it, you can let him try it." Ma Wei said.

"That's right...."Stuart didn't know much about the process of making potions, and since Mavi had said so, he didn't have a problem with that.

Mavi ticked Jacob's name to indicate that Jacob had passed the interview.

"Steven Thomas, your interview passed."

Jacob knew he would pass the interview, but he was still very surprised: "So when am I coming to work?" ”

"Next Monday, tomorrow, report to 59 Woolde Street in Havefling, where someone will take you to the factory."

"You will have a one-week internship at 80% of your salary, and after a one-week internship, you will become a full-time employee, and at that time, the Manstein Potions Company will provide you with a place to live, three meals a day, and life and sickness insurance..."

"If you have a family, you can also choose to live in a rented house, and if you are renting a house, you can apply to the company for a rent and transportation allowance of 7 shillings per week...."

After saying the treatment, Ma Wei stood up and stretched out his palm towards Jacob:

"Welcome, Steven Thomas."
