Chapter 270 - 270 Business Trip
270 Business Trip
Feng Cai frowned at Yao Nian. Just as he was about to speak, Liu Jian’s gentle yet sonorous voice sounded in his ear.
“Yao Nian, I do want the position of salesperson. I also admit that I gave Brother Cai pear paste candies to please Brother Cai, but even if it weren’t for this, I would have given it to Brother Cai if he needed it. There are only a few dozen male intellectuals in our dormitory. Everyone came from the city to build the countryside, and none of us have relatives or friends here. Close friends are better than distant relatives, so everyone should help each other. I don’t think we have to involve personal interests in everything.”
“Moreover, when it comes to introducing City B, Brother Cai is asking directly, so I should answer if I can. This is the same as asking for directions on the street. There’s no need to be so roundabout.” ...
Liu Jian could tell at a glance that Yao Nian was stirring up trouble and retorted bluntly.
Feng Cai looked at Liu Jian meaningfully. Then, he patted Liu Jian’s shoulder and said indifferently, “Ignore him. He likes to cause trouble.”
Only then did Liu Jian turn around and continue to tell Feng Cai about the situation in City B.
Yao Nian was so angry that he clenched his fists tightly. He felt that Liu Jian was ungrateful. He spoke up for Liu Jian, but Liu Jian turned the blame on him. Such a person should stay in the field for the rest of his life!
After thinking about it, he comforted himself that it wasn’t worth being angry over these people. After all, he would be returning to the city with Yu Yan soon. Why should he care about these people?
The next morning, Feng Cai wrote the name of the young man who had successfully applied for the position of salesperson.
“Congratulations, Liu Jian.”
“Liu Jian, don’t forget your buddies in the future!”
The few people who were good friends with Liu Jian smiled and patted his shoulder.
When Liu Jian saw his name, he was stunned. Last night, after Feng Cai said that the person had been chosen, he completely forgotten about this matter.
Feng Cai smiled as he walked towards Liu Jian. “We’ll set off after lunch. Is everything settled?”
Only then did Liu Jian come back to his senses and finally believe that the announcement he saw was true. “No problem, no problem! I’ll go pack my things immediately.”
Speaking of which, Liu Jian arrived here a year later than Feng Cai. Feng Cai understood Liu Jian’s feelings at this moment. After all, he had been there before. “There’s no hurry. Come with me to the factory to settle the employment procedures first before going to the village committee to get a business trip certificate.”
With that, he brought Liu Jian out of the dormitory building.
Everyone looked at Liu Jian curiously. They didn’t see him helping Feng Cai that much, so why was he chosen?
The key was that Liu Jian’s family was an ordinary working-class family. No one could think of any benefits Liu Jian’s family could bring to the factory, like Feng Cai’s family could.
In fact, Feng Cai had told everyone who came to express goodwill to him from the beginning that he already had a candidate in mind. He had also seen people who had the same reaction as Yao Nian, but most of them had the same reaction as Liu Jian.
However, the best most people could do was to not take back the candy they had given him. Liu Jian was different. Even if there were interests at stake, he would help if he could without thinking about the gains. Feng Cai liked such sincere people.
Feng Cai didn’t want troublemakers on the team he led. Moreover, Liu Jian was from B City, so it was indeed a bonus. A salesperson was supposed to maintain customer relationships. Liu Jian had observed Feng Cai’s situation and delivered the thing he needed in time, which meant that he was meticulous and efficient. He wasn’t a slow-witted person.
Since Yu Bing gave Feng Cai the privilege of recruitment, Feng Cai didn’t want to let Yu Bing down, so he naturally had to choose the most suitable person. That was why he thought of this method to test everyone.
After lunch, Wu Qing drove Yu Bing and the others to the county bus station.
The first stop Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng chose was C City. As soon as they left the station, Yu Bing bought a map. Unlike in the future, they could navigate wherever they went with a phone, they could only rely on the map to find places in this era.
The bus station was usually in the center of the city, so Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng went to the guesthouse to put down their luggage first.
Yu Bing planned the intinerary in five cities according to the nearby and distant route. It was only 3:30 pm when they checked in, so the two of them decided to walk around the city center today to see if there was a suitable location for an office.
