Chapter 127: The fall of Leifeng Pagoda

Chapter 127: The fall of Leifeng Pagoda

Father's silk stockings factory is hiring women.

The news immediately set off a huge storm in Westwind town as soon as the news came out.

Robb's reputation in Westwind Town is first-class, countless times better than the mayor and the others.

Working for Robb is synonymous with a "high salary."

The "female staff recruitment conference" of the silk stockings factory instantly became the topic in Westwind Town.

Robb didn't care about it much. He just went to the recruitment conference and, as usual, slumped on his stool.

Lillian prepared the Coca-Cola and Lays potato chips nearby, and as soon as Robb opened his mouth, Lillian fed some of them to Robb. Occasionally, he pretended to be careless and licked Lillian's hand, which Lillian foolishly did not notice.

But even if she did notice it, she couldn't resist.

But it would be meaningless to lick her hand like that openly. As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine. A concubine is better than stealing. It is better not to steal.

Robb only secretly took advantage of Lillian and didnt do it with obvious intentions.

The factory director set up a long table next to Robb's lazy spot, and one by one, the women who applied fell in line.

However, the number of women who applied for the job completely exceeded expectations.

At the beginning of the construction of this factory, there were less than a thousand townspeople in Westwind Town, and there were only two to three hundred women who were suitable to work in the factory. Hence, the factory director was not worried about it at all. So, he just called all the women in town to help.

But then the refugees of White Birch Town came, and so did the townspeople of the Stone Canyon. The population almost doubled, and of course, the number of women doubled.

Looking at the long line of applicants behind, the factory director could not help sweating, Its over! Were dead! What are we going to do? Father, I only planned to recruit two hundred female workers, but Im afraid more than 500 applicants came today. What am I supposed to do?

Robb said with a smile, "just pick those who look hard-working and quick-witted. Dont pick those that are lazy.

The factory director said awkwardly, "however, we and the people in town cross paths often. How can I not be ashamed if I eliminate half of them?"

Robb said, "you are now a factory director, a professional manager. You have to put in a lot of blood, sweat, and tears. Be ruthless. Everything is only for profit. If you lose money in the factory and can't make money, I'll have to change the factory director. Youll lose your job if youre too embarrassed to do so."

Factory Director:

If he thought about it again. Although he is now the factory director, the factory belongs to Robb, not him. If he can't do his job well, Robb will have to just change the factory director.

The factory director took a deep breath, put away the smile on his face, showed a ferocious, ruthless expression, and exclaimed, "We shall now start the interview, wait in line. Those who are gluttonous and lazy should not sign up. You are all from the village and town. I am also very clear about your characteristics. Hardworking and capable women will be given priority!"

When the women heard this, there was a slight uproar. A woman in the back shouted, "Damn cloth merchant, I have a personal grudge against you. You certainly won't want me this time."

Before she finished, she heard the cloth merchant shout, "Huh? It's you! Although you are fierce, you are quite reliable in doing things. OK, you don't have to wait in line. Youre in.

Huh? Itll cause quite the uproar. Is that okay?

The factory director snorted coldly and raised his volume, "the people I want are people who can do practical things for the factory. I need someone selfless, not short-sighted women who know nothing. OK, now well officially start the interview, one by one. The bitch who has just been admitted, go and invite the mayor of White Birch Town and Stone Canyon. I will ask them about the characters of the women from White Birch Town and Stone Canyon. "

Robb was amused that he had hired the right person for the job. If he were to do it, he would be too embarrassed to brush off more than half of the people. Doing so would have affected his warm and kind image in the hearts of the townspeople. Now the bad image is handed over to the factory director, but he, the real capitalist, only gains a good reputation. Hahaha!

When night came, the recruitment ended.

The silk stockings factory recruited a total of 100 female weavers and 100 stocking seamstresses. The four female workers who had been recruited at the beginning were now magnificently promoted to technical supervisors, responsible for guiding the work of these 200 female workers. A four-level personnel hierarchy was formed instantly in the small factory.

The highest, of course, is chairman Robb, followed by CEO factory director, followed by the four technical supervisors and old hunters who guide spider breeders. The lowest are 200 new female workers, spider breeders, and warehouse keepers.

In order to keep his position, the factory director showed a ruthless look fitting for a capitalist. On the second day after the job conference, he let all the female workers go all out to produce silk stockings.

Who says the ancients werent wise?

The factory director tried hard to figure out how to make more money and secure his position with Robb. He soon invented the "last-one out system," wherein the female worker with the lowest production efficiency of that month will have her salary deducted by 10%.

The great wheel of capitalism has started moving its wheels and cannot be stopped.

However, since the population of Westwind Town is too small. Its difficult to promote capitalism normally, so Robb urgently needs more population.

October 15, late fall. The smell of winter began to flow.

The traveling merchant came again while taking away many silk stockings made by the factory. He also brought the news that is difficult for the people to process whether to be happy or not to be - the black dragon appeared!

However, it did not come to the Kingdom of Gran this year but appeared in Big Tang, tearing down the famous "Leifeng Pagoda, ransacking all the treasures inside. Master Fahai, the rabbit monk responsible for guarding the tower, was killed. Thousands of rabbitmen died bravely in order to protect their homeland. It is said that when the pagoda fell, the monsters suppressed under it flew out together, and strange cries of terror shook in a radius of ten miles.

Poor Leifeng Pagoda has become history.

After hearing the news, Robb did not know whether to cry or laugh. For the first time that day, instead of being lazy on his stone stool, he stood up and walked to the fence on the edge of the courtyard. He looked down at the sky with his hand and recited in a leisurely tone, "I have heard that Leifeng Pagoda has fallen. I have not seen it in person, but I have seen the unfallen Leifeng Pagoda, shabby, hidden between lakes and mountains."

He still hasn't forgotten the literary work he learned in middle school. Robb felt a tad homesick because of it.
