Chapter 28 Qinghe Weaving
Chapter 28 Qinghe Weaving
In April of the ninth year of Jinghe, Qinghe Weaving Institute.
Su Yanjun sat bored in the Wanshi Hall, which was converted from the expansion of the weaving institute's gatehouse, and yawned loudly.
She had just taken a nap on the counter, and her face was still stained by the book she had used as a pillow.
She feels that it is normal for people to feel sleepy in spring, tired in autumn and take naps in summer.
It's time for her to go off duty at the hour of You.
She was happily packing up her things when she saw a young girl in green clothes carrying a large bag walking straight into the Wanshi Hall from the street.
Although the girl looked tired, her beauty could not be concealed. Her hair was casually tied up high with a jade ring, which made her look very simple and capable, but it did not match her slightly cute face.
"Miss, Wanshitang will not accept commissions after Shenshi. Please come back after Sishi tomorrow morning."
But the girl in green asked in confusion, "Wanshitang? Isn't this the Qinghe Weaving House?"
This girl doesn’t even know Wanshitang, so she is obviously from another place.
Su Yanjun patiently explained, "This is the Wanshi Hall specially set up by the Qinghe Weaving Institute for the public. It is mainly responsible for accepting various commissions from the public. Whether it is looking for people or things, or unsolved cases, or even evil and weird things, we will send someone to solve them."
The young girl in green shirt asked curiously, "Does the special person to deal with it refer to the Inspection and Patrol Division?"
Su Yanjun chuckled slightly: "The people in the Inspection and Patrol Department are so busy that we won't bother them with everything. But if it is confirmed to be a case related to the weird, the Weaving Institute will definitely arrange for the Inspection and Patrol Department to go out, and of course the price will not be cheap."
"There's a fee for this? Isn't this an institution under the Weaving Institute? Shouldn't it be funded by the court? Logically speaking, the Qinghe Weaving Institute has a lot of funding every year."
"Oh, young lady, you don't understand this." Su Yanjun rarely met someone who knew nothing, and said a few more words proudly, "Although the Qinghe Weaving Institute has a lot of money, it has many affairs to deal with, it has many employees to employ, and it also spends a lot of money every year on equipment and machinery."
"So we have Wanshitang, a non-official organization affiliated with Qinghe Weaving Institute. Qinghe Weaving Institute only provides the venue. We also serve the people and can make some money!" Su Yanjun said the last sentence mysteriously in a low voice.
The girl in green nodded. She didn't expect that the Qinghe Weaving Institute was so smart. No wonder it was able to rank among the best.
"In short, our fees depend on the difficulty of your case. If it is an easier case, we have our own retainers to help you solve your problems. If it is a more complicated and serious case, we also cooperate with the constables in the government office and can arrange for the constables to come, but the price will be higher."
The girl in green shirt immediately understood that in this way, many of the business conflicts between the weaving institute and the county government could be resolved, and they could make money together.
"When you come tomorrow morning, tell me your request and I will connect you with a special project manager."
Su Yanjun's subtext was just one sentence - I won't work overtime.
The girl in green shook her head and said, "I'm not here to ask for help. I'm here to take up my post at the Qinghe Weaving Institute. I want to ask how to get in."
Su Yanjun was a little surprised. It turned out that this person was not a guest, and he didn't tell her earlier, causing her to complain so much to others.
"You have to go through Wanshi Hall to enter Qinghe Weaving Institute. I didn't know much about it when I first arrived, and I was afraid of being disturbed by idlers. Anyway, if you have anything, just go to Wanshi Hall first."
The girl in green thanked him, then picked up the bag that she had just unloaded on the ground and tried to walk to the back hall.
Su Yanjun suddenly remembered something: "Wait, is your name Liu Sheng?"
The girl in green, Liu Sheng, stopped and looked at Su Yanjun and nodded.
Su Yanjun slapped his forehead and said, "After talking for so long, it turns out that you are my new colleague! Let me introduce myself. My name is Su Yanjun."
"Colleagues?" Liu Sheng asked doubtfully.
"Yes, didn't you know? Miss Liu, you were assigned to the Wanshi Hall to help me receive guests! This was told to me by the Wanshi Hall Master Wan a few days ago. He said that when you arrive, I will help you to handle the inauguration procedures." "I haven't received the news, but I used to work in the warehouse of the Li County Weaving Institute..."
Su Yanjun suddenly realized, "No wonder. I heard from Hall Master Wan that you have no cultivation. The requirements of Qinghe Weaving Institute are relatively high. Even the warehouse requires at least a beginner cultivator. And now the warehouse is full, you can't get in."
She also motioned Liu Sheng to come closer and whispered quietly: "Besides, a job like a warehouse is rich and leisurely, and it is impossible for an outsider like you with no background and no connections to get it."
Liu Sheng understood that it meant they were all people with connections.
"Of course, it's not bad for you to work with me now. It's also a special position within the company. You just need to receive clients every day and help connect cases to the corresponding departments. You don't need to do field work or write paperwork. The salary is a little less, but it's hard to find a job that's leisurely, decent, and not dangerous these days."
Liu Sheng was also very surprised that Su Yanjun was so frank: "Thank you for the reminder, but is it really okay for you to say that?"
Su Yanjun waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, anyway, my aunt is Fang Yuanzheng's sister-in-law."
Liu Sheng was silent. Well, this is another person with connections.
……
Before the shift was over, Su Yanjun took Liu Sheng to report to the Qinghe Weaving Institute's office.
The Qinghe Weaving Institute is indeed much larger than the Lixian Weaving Institute. It took a long time to walk there after many twists and turns.
When they arrived at the case room, Su Yanjun said, "That gentleman is not easy to talk to, so I won't go in with you."
As he said that, he pushed Liu Sheng in and waited outside.
The lights in the desk room were on brightly. In the center, a middle-aged clerk was buried in documents with a huge, thick jade book in front of him. There were several other clerks beside him, each busy at their desks.
Seeing someone coming in, a stranger, he raised his eyes and asked, "Are you here to report?"
Liu Sheng nodded and stepped forward, took out a metal card-shaped certificate, which was her identity certificate, and handed it to the middle-aged clerk.
The middle-aged clerk took the certificate and swiped it on the jade book in front of him. Liu Sheng's name, hometown, age, position and other information about his background appeared on the book.
"Confirmed, Liu Sheng, 18 years old, native of Xiaoluyuan, formerly treasurer of the warehouse of Li County Weaving Institute, now transferred to the Wanshi Hall of Qinghe Weaving Institute, serving as a doorman, enjoying third-level treatment."
"Door attendant?" Liu Sheng was a little uncomfortable with this title. It sounded far from the specialized work she wanted to do.
Moreover, the third-level treatment means a monthly salary of three spiritual yuan. She was originally on the eighth-level treatment, receiving eight spiritual yuan per month. This is really too much of a downgrade.
Liu Sheng expressed his objection.
The middle-aged clerk said impatiently, "What else do you want? We are already fully staffed, but your Li County Weaving House caused such a mess, and we had to force a few people in. Those few people from the Inspection Office are fine, but there is also a person with no cultivation. It is difficult for us to deal with him."
The clerks nearby also chuckled after hearing this.
"If it weren't for your good looks in your profile, you wouldn't even be able to work as a doorman. Don't be so ungrateful and take the job if you want."
The middle-aged clerk glanced at Liu Sheng's face and his tone softened.
Indeed, he looks good. The original doorman Su Yan or something also had a good-looking face. Otherwise, if he had no cultivation and ability, it would not be good even if he had connections.
"Here is your token. It allows you to enter and exit the weaving workshop. Take it if you want to continue working!"
Liu Sheng lowered his eyes, then took the token and the notice without saying a word, then turned and left.
New map, new atmosphere!
