Chapter 521: An assistant was recruited
The plan to add a subordinate to the family was quickly put on the agenda, and early the next morning, Chen Fei pulled his father, who had not yet sobered up, and said that his father agreed in a daze.
So Chen Fei quickly found Wang Tian and entrusted him to explain this matter.
Wang Tian went to Chang'an City very efficiently, and in the afternoon he brought seven subordinates, three maids, three servants, and a housekeeper with an older grade.
The three maids and the little maid are only in their teens, only a little older than Zhang Qing. Timid, he lowered his head in fear, not daring to look at Chen Fei and the others, as if he was full of fear of the unknown fate.
According to Zhang Qing, the three men and three women were all sold because of their family's financial difficulties, or because they couldn't afford to be sold, or because their families owed debts and were taken out to pay off their debts.
Chen Fei looked at the six teenage children who had suffered such treatment, and couldn't help but sigh for them.
And Wang Tian was still chattering about how he had vision and how he picked out these six people with good qualifications from the tooth dealers. Ignoring the increasingly self-conscious posture of several people.
"Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense, the ghost knows how you picked it, everyone is here, what's the use of saying this?" Chen Fei waved his hand, he didn't care how smart these people were, what their background was, anyway, as long as he finished the work that should be done, he didn't care about the rest.
Anyway, it's just a subordinate who does chores, so what does it matter if I'm smart or not? It is good to have a good character and work diligently.
Wang Tian continued to enthusiastically introduce the slightly older housekeeper. said that he was a little older, but in fact, he was in his twenties, a middle-aged man who was nearly thirty years old, lean and lean, and his eyes flashed with shrewdness.
His name is Sun Deyi, he did business in his family when he was young, his family background is not bad, he has gone to school, he is proficient in arithmetic, and he knows a lot of business knowledge. It's just that the unfortunate family has fallen into such a situation......."
"Nonsense!" Chen Fei corrected Wang Tian's statement with righteous words. "What do you mean to end up in such a situation, isn't it good to come to my house?"
Wang Tian patted his head and smiled awkwardly: "Look at my broken mouth, Ah Fei, don't suggest it." ”
Chen Fei shook his head, and then looked at Sun Deyi with interest.
Sun Deyi has a mustache, his expression is characteristic of a businessman's shrewdness, and his small eyes often turn and turn, as if his head is thinking about something quickly.
Such a person, if he can control it, will be a powerful helper in the family, if he can't control it...... Chen Fei shook his head slightly, he had experienced so many people in his previous life, so he didn't believe that there was anything he couldn't control!
"Sun Deyi?" He called faintly.
Sun Deyi hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The villain has seen the adult." ”
Chen Fei picked up Sun Deyi and said with a smile: "Since it will be a family in the future, then you don't have to see each other like this, just call me Gongzi and my father in the future, don't want any adults or adults, it sounds twisted." By the way, this is Zhang Qing, my father recognizes his righteous grandson, just call him Xiaoqing. ”
Chen Fei didn't have any official status, and he was very friendly to communicate with Sun Deyi and a few subordinates. This made Sun Deyi a little flattered.
In his impression, the officials should all look high-spirited and look at people with nostrils, but he didn't expect Chen Fei to be so approachable, which made him look forward to staying in the Chen family.
Chen Fei took the expressions of several people into his eyes, and the other six people didn't have too many expressions except for surprises, but Sun Deyi was a little strange, he seemed to be a little absent-minded, I don't know if this person's expression was like this, or if he really had something on his mind.
"Sun Deyi? Do you have something on your mind? ”
Sun Deyi hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"You can say it, maybe I can help you!"
Sun Deyi still hesitated, pursed his mouth and did not speak.
It seems that things are not small, but how could Chen Fei miss this opportunity to win people's hearts, stepped forward and patted Sun Deyi's shoulder, and said: "Don't worry, we will all be a family in the future, just say anything directly, don't be polite to me!" ”
When he heard the word "family", Sun Deyi was obviously moved, he had not had deep contact with Chen Fei, it was only half an hour, people were willing to treat each other with sincerity, what did he have to hide? It's just that.......
"Childe, don't hide it, the villain does have something to ask for, but he doesn't know how to speak, or rather... The villain is afraid that he will not be able to repay the kindness of the son in the future, so ... Don't dare to speak. ”
"Speak up first, how do you know if I can help if you don't say it? Also, don't say anything villain in front of me in the future, if you are older than me, just call me good, our family is not so particular. ”
Sun Deyi was moved when he heard Chen Fei's words, this thought is rare for a powerful person to be so good to his subordinates, anyway, he was really moved.
"Childe, don't hide it, villain... I, my family because of business losses, owed a lot of money can not be repaid, the villain sold himself to the tooth dealer is to pay off the family's debts, but now I still owe a lot of money, my parents are old, and because of the debt, overworked, fell ill, now sick in bed, urgently need medicine, but ......."
Sun Deyi gritted his teeth and tugged at his pants restlessly with both hands, looking very nervous.
Chen Fei nodded: "Understood, Wang Tian, how much money do we still have in our account that can be deployed?" ”
Sun Deyi trembled and looked at Chen Fei in disbelief. He never thought that Chen Fei would agree to borrow money so happily, and he didn't ask for anything in return, and they had only known each other for less than a stick of incense!
If the adults treat me like this, how can I repay them? Sun Deyi was so excited that he was about to kneel, but was stopped by Chen Fei. "Okay, okay, don't kneel down at every turn, I said that our family doesn't like this, you're welcome, I can't say how much you can borrow."
Wang Tian calculated and gave an approximate number. "Many of our workshops are expanding now, and it seems that there are still a lot of places to ask for money, and a lot of last year's profits have been posted into it......"
Hearing this, Sun Deyi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed....... "But! "Wang Tian suddenly made a big turn of words, and his appetite was raised." But! The amount of profit we made last year was very considerable, and even if we expanded production this year, we still have a lot of spare money in our accounts, probably 1,000 taels of silver. ”
"A thousand taels of silver? Is 1,000 taels of silver enough? Chen Fei asked Sun Deyi.
"Enough, enough!" Sun Deyi spoke incoherently excitedly. "I... I mortgaged my family's property, and now I still owe about 500 taels of foreign debt, which is enough! ”
"In this case, I will give you eight hundred li of silver." Chen Fei lowered his head and calculated, and then said: "Since your family used to be in business, I think there should be a lot of doorways to sell goods, I just need these doorways, and maybe you will need to handle some things in the future, so don't be polite about this money, just think of it as my investment." ”
"Your Excellency, it's unforgettable!" Sun Deyi's eyes were red, he gritted his teeth, and bowed three times respectfully to Chen Fei, at this moment, he was sincerely willing to work for Chen Fei.
Chen Fei smiled, if Sun Deyi really has some ability, then he has another right-hand man. Wang Tian is suitable for presiding over the overall situation, but he lacks some business sense, maybe Sun Deyi can make up for this, and the cooperation between the two in the future makes Chen Fei look forward to it......
By the way, is this a housekeeper or an assistant?
