A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 240: Start planning to set up a stall

After parting with Song Ning and her son, Hang Shuheng went to the pawnshop. Manager Gong in the pawnshop was quite surprised to see him.

He greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Hang, what do you need today?"

"Yes! I have something I want to ask Manager Gong. Is it convenient for you?"

"It's convenient, let's go to the guest room and talk." Since guests are guests, there is no reason for it to be inconvenient.

Manager Gong brought Hang Shuheng to the reception room and ordered tea and snacks to be served. Then he asked, "What does Mr. Hang want to know?"

Hang Shuheng thought for a moment and said, "Manager Gong, I want to find out where the craftsmen who used to work at the Wanjia Woodworking Workshop are now."

As soon as Manager Gong heard this, he understood why he came today. "Mr. Hang wants to find a carpenter?"

"That's right." Hang Shuheng did not deny it.

Manager Gong thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, the craftsmen who worked for the Wan family before and those with good skills have all been taken away by others."

"You know, people with skills are the most sought after. Now, there are only a few apprentices left in our business. If you don't mind the trouble, you can take them back and find a skilled master to teach them."

Hang Shuheng thought that what he said made sense. An apprentice with some basic knowledge was better than one who knew nothing. With someone to guide him, he would be able to get the hang of it quickly.

If you want to expand your stall in the future, it won’t be enough to rely on Shuisheng alone. You have to find some more experienced masters to support the business.

However, there was no rush for this matter, as he hadn't even started preparing the workshop yet! He could take a look at the apprentices first, and if possible, take them back with him.

"It seems that I am a step late." Hang Shuheng said: "Well, you bring those apprentices out first, and I will take a look."

"Okay! Just wait."

Manager Gong excused himself and went downstairs to give instructions. Soon, a group of people came out. They were all men. They looked young, mostly in their teens or twenties.

Hang Shuheng asked them all to raise their heads. When hiring people for jobs, rapport and first impression are very important.

After brief questioning and communication, Hang Shuheng finally picked out six people, and the rest were all taken away by Manager Gong.

These people have some skills and are all young people. Their prices are slightly higher than those of ordinary people, eighteen taels of silver per person.

When Hang Shuheng paid the money, he gave two more taels of silver, "I'll trouble Manager Gong to take care of it."

Manager Gong gladly accepted the money, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Hang, I will definitely get it done for you."

Hang Shuheng was stiff and speechless. Here it comes again...

Fortunately, he was not drinking tea at the moment and did not lose his composure. He thought that they might deal with each other again in the future, and he would get used to it after dealing with them more often.

He cleared his throat and changed the subject, "Manager Gong, I need some experienced carpenters. I'll have to trouble you to keep an eye out for talent in this area. It doesn't necessarily have to be a permanent contract, a living contract will do."

Manager Gong pondered for a while before saying, "Now that you mention it, I do know of a person, but I heard that this person has been sealed, so it may not be possible to invite him."

In fact, he had thought of this person ever since he understood the purpose of Hang Shuheng's visit, but since this person was not easy to invite, he did not mention him.

Hearing Hang Shuheng's request, he couldn't help but think of this person again, so he mentioned him, while also not forgetting to point out the difficulty of this matter.

"At the beginning, neither the Wan family nor the Chen family was able to hire anyone. If you are interested in this person, you should be mentally prepared and don't hold too high hopes."

"That's okay. I wonder how much Manager Gong knows about this person? Can you reveal a thing or two?" As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Hang Shuheng believes that it is very necessary to understand the other party's background before going to the door.

"Well!" Manager Gong hesitated for a moment, then looked around. There were only the two of them here, so he leaned over and said mysteriously, "I heard, I just heard! I heard that when the late emperor was still in power, that man was an official in the capital. After the current emperor ascended the throne, I heard that he cleaned up the court and demoted many officials."

"It was at this juncture that this master stopped serving as an official. Many people speculated that he was one of the officials demoted, but that was just speculation. Outsiders did not know the truth."

"Hang Shuheng, you have to think it through. This person's background seems a bit complicated. If he is a criminal, it may be disadvantageous for you to get close to him!"

Manager Gong said so much out of kindness, and Hang Shuheng was very grateful. "Thank you for your reminder, Manager Gong. Let me think about this matter again. If there is any need, I will come to you again."

"Okay!" Manager Gong smiled cheerfully, "I'll be waiting for Mr. Hang to come anytime."

After coming out of Yahang, Hang Shuheng brought the six young men he had just bought back to the house to settle down.

"Sir, this is..."

When Xu came to open the door, before she could figure out the situation, Hang Shuheng had already brought a few young men into the house.

"These people will work with you in the future. Please settle them down first and prepare a good meal at noon."

"Oh! Okay." Xu nodded hurriedly in response.

Hang Shuheng looked at the six young men and said, "You guys settle down here first and follow the instructions of this sister-in-law for the time being. I will arrange work for you in the future."

"Yes, son."

After giving a few brief instructions, Hang Shuheng left without even drinking a sip of water.

However, Xu was still a little proud. The young master actually asked a few young men to follow her instructions. That was the trust the young master gave her, so she had to do the job well.

At that moment, she arranged for a few people to live in the back house and asked them to clean the house themselves, while she took Xiaobao out to buy food.

Because the young master said that he would prepare a good meal.

When Hang Shuheng arrived at Zhou's house, he heard from the servants that Song Ning and her son had gone to the shop with their eldest daughter, so he followed the servants' lead, passed through the backyard, and entered the Jubao Pavilion.

"Oh! Hang Tongsheng is here. Madam Hang and the shopkeeper are upstairs. Just go up directly." The shop assistants were no strangers to him and smiled as they showed him the way.

"Thank you!"

After saying thank you, he went upstairs. Before he reached the upstairs, he could feel the cheerful atmosphere upstairs.

Yangyang was sitting on a chair, swinging his short legs, eating snacks, while the other adults were sitting on the side, talking and laughing.
