As the burly man spoke after his emotions had calmed down a little, Zhao Jie finally understood why Ah Guang had come.
It turned out that the workers felt like they were dreaming after they received their daily salary, which was the two silver coins.
After all, two silver coins was a lot of money for them. If they worked in an ordinary factory on the island, they wouldn’t be able to earn that much in a week. Now that they were getting two silver coins a day, how could they not be excited?
“When you came to White Plume Island and told us that there was a chance to start work again and make a lot of money, we were all very excited. We knew that you hadn’t forgotten us. But then you said that the new factory would be opened on Sakuragi Island. We were all stunned because we all knew that Sakuragi Island was an absolute forbidden place.”
” But because of the turmoil in the Three Supreme Courts, we couldn’t find a job on White Plume Island after the aftershock even though things were much better now. Besides, you offered us such a high salary, so we gritted our teeth and followed you.”
After Guang said this, he paused for a few moments. He steeled his heart and said sincerely to Zhao Jie,
“But, but let me tell you. I came here with the mentality of exchanging my life for money for my family. I don’t have any hope at all. When the time comes, Boss Zhao, if you can really offer such a salary, I believe that the other workers will also think the same, because this is too impossible.”
“But after a few days, when I really arrived and started working, I realized that although Sakuragi Island is scary, it’s indeed as you promised us, Boss Zhao. There’s no danger at all! Every day was actually the same as working in other places!”
“And this salary…The salary is also given to us without a single cent missing!”
“I just thought, how can there be such a good thing in the world? How can there be such a good boss! “So, not only me, but I also represent all of our colleagues to express our gratitude to Boss Zhao for giving us this opportunity!”
Ah Guang was about to kneel down again, but Zhao Jie quickly stopped him. He corrected Ah Guang’s mistake. There were indeed some black-hearted bosses who would cheat and oppress their employees, but it was definitely not him, Zhao Jie.
Zhao Jie hoped that Ah Guang would not have such thoughts in the future. He even used the example of how he often taught his daughter when she was young.
Zhao Jie had told Xing ‘er before that businessmen could pursue profits, but they had to do it through legitimate and legal means. The bigger the profits, the more they had to be built on the foundation of benefiting the people.
If Xing ‘er wanted to do business one day and walk down her father’s path, she had to remember that wealth was created, not plundered or exploited.
As a father, he naturally had to set an example for his daughter. Otherwise, how could he have the face to educate her?
After that.
Zhao Jie waved his hand at Guang. When he mentioned the second point, the person Guang really wanted to thank was not himself, but the fox-faced witch.
He originally wanted to mention the name of the son, but after thinking about the uniqueness of his son-in-law, he decided to mention it to Vivian, who was ” on the surface “.
Zhao Jie told Guang that the fox-faced witch was the one who had contributed the most to the safety of Sakuragi Island and this opportunity. Zhao Jie was just a support.
“I understand, I understand, Boss Zhao. Although that witch is wearing a fox mask, she’s a little… ” It’s scary, but we’ve already adapted to it. Can you believe it? A noble witch like her actually sent water to us miners and asked about our health. This, this is something we wouldn’t dare to imagine in any shrine!”
“From that moment on, I knew that this witch must be as good as Lady Vivian who came to our village!”
As Zhao Jie listened, he was suddenly stunned.
“Hmm? Lady Vivian?”
Seeing that the boss seemed to be very interested in this name, Ah Guang hurriedly explained,
” Yes. Boss Zhao, do you still remember that under the Society’s rule, there was a candidate for the Divine Wizard named ‘Akino’ who used the gimmick to wantonly sell her inferior products? Many young people in the village were addicted to it, and as a result, they all suffered from strange diseases and were bedridden?。”
” After the storm subsided, we didn’t know the exact details. Fortunately, the Grand Priest of Evil finally sealed it off. However, after that, the bad guys were caught. They felt that the problem had been solved, and in the end, they didn’t care about us.”
” Later, a lord named Vivian came to our village. She said that it was fortunate that she recalled her memories correctly and did not remember the wrong place. Then, she treated all the villagers who had strange diseases. Among them… That includes my useless younger brother! That’s why I remember it so clearly. Unfortunately…By the time we wanted to repay that lord, she had already disappeared.”
As Ah Guang spoke, he lowered his head, his face full of shame and regret. They had not repaid such a great kindness, and Ah Guang and the villagers were all brooding over this.
On the other side, Zhao Jie didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He sighed at the wonder of fate, but he also felt a sense of helplessness from the bottom of his heart.
The sense of powerlessness towards Vivian.
This little girl was really a bully. Even if Zhao Jieming knew that she would be his daughter’s strong competitor, he couldn’t bring himself to be hostile at all. He could only sigh and sigh.
