Looking at the people outside who didn't know the truth, Situ Junwen came out to explain in person: "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me." He knew very well that most of these ordinary people could not read, and those scholars who could recognize a few words were reluctant to help interpret the job notice.

After everyone gradually quieted down, Situ Junwen continued, "I believe everyone has noticed that our beauty salon is now doing a booming business, and we have also launched new products, so we are in urgent need of recruiting some workers."

Hearing this, everyone started to discuss. In the Xuanyuan Dynasty, many poor families would choose to sell themselves or their families into slavery in exchange for the necessities of life. The opportunities to remain free and find a job were relatively rare. Ordinary people mostly made a living by farming, and it was even more difficult to let their children study and become talents. Therefore, if a family had a scholar, it would be an enviable thing.

At this time, a passerby couldn't help but ask: "Boss, I don't need to sell my body to work here, right?"

Situ Junwen quickly replied: "No, just sign a contract."

However, when they heard that they were going to sign a contract, the crowd became agitated again, talking about

"Isn't this the same as selling one's body?"

"Everyone, listen to my explanation!"

Seeing that everyone had misunderstood, Situ Junwen quickly raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. He wanted to explain to these people the true purpose of this contract.

"The contract in our beauty salon is completely different from the indenture you imagine. It is a contract designed to protect the interests of both parties. The contract clearly stipulates the amount of monthly wages. As long as the employee does not harm the interests of the beauty salon, he or she will not be fired unjustly. People who come to work in our beauty salon only need to be loyal and work hard. In addition, there will be generous gifts during every festival."

Situ Junwen paused for a moment and then said

"More importantly, as long as you work in our beauty salon, your children can study for free in the school specially opened in our beauty salon."

At this point, he couldn't help but recall that it was actually the little prince who came up with this idea.

The young prince had no choice. His beauty salon business was booming recently and he made a lot of money. But when he thought of the eyes of the officials in the court, he felt that he had to shed some blood. Otherwise, not only would it be difficult to explain to the court officials, but even his father might be dissatisfied with him. Although he did not want to be a prince, he always cared about the people.

At this time, if Emperor Xuanyuan knew what the prince was thinking, he would definitely say with a smile: "Fortunately, you acted quickly, otherwise your private vault would not be safe."

Emperor Xuanyuan was excited about the little prince's recent earnings. He really didn't expect his son to be so able to make money, nor did he expect the concubines in his harem and the wives and daughters of ministers to be so rich.

When the people below heard that they could send their children to school for free, they all talked about it. Of course, most of them did not believe it.

"Isn't this a lie?" someone questioned.

"How can it be so good?" another person echoed.

"Are they going to ask our girl to do something that cannot be seen by others? I heard that there are only women in here," someone said worriedly.

"No way, I heard from my uncle's daughter's aunt that their wives come here to wash their faces, and are served by these girls," someone retorted.

"Isn't that just a maid's job?" someone said disdainfully.

"Yes, you don't know, our neighbor's daughter has been working there for a long time. The girl who was dark-skinned before has become very beautiful now. She can bring home ten taels of silver every month, which makes her parents very happy. Her lame brother has also got married." Someone said proudly.

The woman who was speaking was really regretful! She did not let her daughter come here to apply for the job at that time. She thought she must seize the opportunity this time.

Situ Junwen watched the people below talking about it, and then dropped another explosive piece of news: "This time we are recruiting workers of all ages and genders. The main reason is that the division of labor is different. The soap workshop needs workers, both men and women, young and old are welcome, and the requirements are not as high as those of the beauty salon. We need women with decent looks."

"Really? I can't work in the soap factory either?" asked a woman who looked about 34. There was a hint of expectation on her face, but also some disbelief.

"Of course, you can sign up as long as you are willing," Situ Junwen replied. His voice was firm and powerful, which made people feel at ease.

After hearing the news, the scene was once again excited. Everyone felt that this was a rare opportunity, not only could they make money, but they could also learn new skills. As a result, more people began to line up to sign up, hoping to get the job.

The woman is a widow, and her husband was injured in an accident while working. The employer gave her money for medicine, but she didn't take good care of him. Now she is left alone with a ten-year-old son. She has always been worried that the pressure of life will crush her, but this time the soap workshop's recruitment has given her a glimmer of hope.

"If you want to work, please sign up next door."

Situ Junwen pointed to the small table next to him. Sitting at the table was the clerk who had previously received the foreign princess. She was a palace maid named Jinglan, who could write a little. After the last incident, Xuanyuan Ruize had promoted her to be the assistant to the shopkeeper.

Help Situ Junwen deal with many things in the store. Recently, Situ Junwen is busy with the soap workshop, and basically all the beauty salon matters are handed over to him.

She carefully recorded everyone's information to ensure that everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

As time went by, more and more people signed up successfully, and they left the scene with joyful smiles on their faces, while those who were not selected showed a little disappointment and regret.

However, they were not discouraged or frustrated. On the contrary, they firmly stated that they would continue to wait for the next opportunity and firmly believed that they would be successfully selected one day.

At this time, Situ Junwen stood up and explained to everyone: "Although everyone has successfully registered, whether you will be hired in the end still needs to wait for further news. Our beauty salon is not open to everyone. Only those who meet certain standards and requirements may become our employees. Please rest assured that as long as you leave your address, once we have confirmed the candidate, we will send someone to notify you where to go to work."

After hearing this, people nodded their heads to show their understanding. They knew that any company needed to strictly screen employees to ensure the quality of work and service level. At the same time, they also believed that as long as they maintained good moral character and professional ethics, they would be able to get the job.

"Of course we should!" someone echoed.

"The boss has thought of everything very carefully!" another person agreed.

"Yes, no one wants to hire those who have bad intentions and are lazy!" someone else sighed.

More people expressed understanding and support for Situ Junwen's words.

They understand that only through strict selection can the reputation and quality of the beauty salon be guaranteed. Those who are lucky enough to make trouble dare not speak out easily, because they are clearly aware that the boss behind this beauty salon is very powerful and has an extraordinary background. Otherwise, how could so many noble ladies be willing to spend money here and no one dare to cause trouble?

"Son, you can go to school now." The widow who had asked the question before returned to the village. She excitedly found her son who was working hard on the land. This time she went to the city to pawn her dowry and supplement the family income.

Looking at her son's small figure, she couldn't help but blame herself. Her son was originally studying in the school, but she didn't know that her husband had an accident and she was really powerless. Now it's good, she can work and get five taels of silver every month! Her son can also study in the employer's own school.

"Mom, what happened? You won't do anything stupid, will you?" Little Cao Zhi was a little nervous, worried that his mother would abandon him.

Moreover, he knew that he and his mother had no other options left. It was good enough that they could just try to survive. How could there be a chance for them to go to school?

"Son, it's true. I found a job today." Then Widow Cao told her son in detail how she got the job in the soap workshop.

"Mom, it seems that this boss should be a kind-hearted person." Although he said this, he still decided to go with his mother to take a look, for fear that his mother had been cheated.

At such a young age, he no longer believed that there were any good people in this world. After his father passed away, he and his mother experienced too much human warmth and coldness.
