Gold is Justice

If there are redundant words, there is no need to say so much.She continued to chat with Duck with a smile, and soon, the two of them walked to the door of the apartment where the hired workers temporarily rested.

Knock—knock——

He knocked on the door, and after a while, a voice came from inside.

"Who? It's late at night. I'm freezing to death. Come back tomorrow if you have nothing to do!"

The voice sounded a little impatient and a little rough at the same time.Dak frowned slightly, stepped forward, opened his mouth, and prepared to speak.But Ariel stopped her with her hand.

She smiled and asked Dak to retreat behind her. After clearing her voice slightly, she said, "It's me, Ariel Garcia. Are you all asleep?"

Hearing Ariel's voice, suddenly, the slightly lazy voice inside was immediately replaced by a burst of noise.Immediately afterwards, he heard bursts of busy voices coming from inside.At the same time, some people responded in a hurry: "Boss! Please...please wait for the boss! Immediately...immediately! Clean up quickly! What do these things look like piled up in the aisle?!"

Listening to the noise coming from inside, Ariel just stood at the door with her hands behind her back and waited silently.On the contrary, Dak who was behind seemed a little confused.

After all... Where in the world is there any reason for people to keep their employers waiting?

After about two or three minutes, the door was finally slowly opened.Appearing in front of Ariel and Duck were the hired laborers who seemed a little out of breath, and whose clothes had obviously just been put on, standing in front of him with humble smiles on their faces.

Ariel nodded and said, "Mind if I come in and have a sit?"

The employee who opened the door was taken aback, then nodded quickly and said, "Please come in! Boss, please come in!"

Entering the apartment, Ariel looked at the structure of the house here.

Walking no more than three meters from the gate is a crossroads. The road facing the gate extends up to a staircase leading to the second floor, and two passages extend out on both sides.

The passage is relatively narrow, and if two people are walking towards each other, one of them must turn sideways.

But even in such a narrow passage, there are many sundries placed here.There are boxes, stoves, shelves, and various tubs.

There are several ropes hanging above the passage, but there is nothing hanging on these ropes now.But as long as you turn your head and look at the other passage, you can see that there is still a piece of clothing on the rope over there that has not been torn off in time. Now a female worker hastily stepped forward to tear it off, and stuffed it back into her own with a blushing face. room to go.

There are five rooms in the passage on each side, and the doors of the rooms are relatively narrow. Judging from the distance between the compartments, it may not be a very big house.When Lai Cheese built this apartment, he probably thought it would be used as a hotel for rent, so he tried to use the space as much as possible to make more rooms.

Right now, with the appearance of Ariel, those hired workers came out of their rooms one after another, and stood at the door as if they were waiting for the leader to review.

Their faces were full of restraint and tension. Some male employees didn't even have time to put on their shoes. They stepped on the cold stone floor with bare feet, and their faces were full of shame.

Ariel looked at the hired workers on both sides.On the left is the place where the male workers live, and on the right is the place where the female workers live.

After a moment of contemplation, she took a step forward, walked towards the aisle of the female hired worker first, and said to the female hired worker standing at the door of the first room with a smile on her face: "Before I came in, what were you doing just now?" ?”

At this time, all the hired workers turned their attention to the female hired worker, looking very nervous.The female employee was obviously a little scared. Tears could not help but choked up in the corners of her eyes, and said nervously, "I...I didn't do anything...I just...just..."

Ariel smiled, and was about to speak just now, but Dak from behind leaned forward and said softly: "President, these hired workers have done nothing wrong. If you want to criticize... it's better to find those men, don't Bully these women, okay?"

Regarding this, Ariel gave him a blank look, nodded with a smile and said, "Do you mind if I go in and sit for a while? Let's chat?"

At such a time, how could that female employee dare to say "no"?He could only smile awkwardly and nodded.

Entering the room, it is indeed as small as Ariel predicted.

In a room about ten square meters in size, there was a single bed in the corner, and a row of shelves for plates and clothes on the right.There is only a passage in the middle that allows people to walk sideways, giving people an inexplicable sense of depression.

Ariel looked at the room, nodded slightly, pointed to the edge of the bed over there, and said with a smile, "Do you mind if I sit down?"

The female employee nodded quickly: "Please...boss, please..."

Ariel sat down, then beckoned to the female employee, and said with a smile: "Come on, Kelly, you sit down too, and sit next to me. Duck, this place is relatively small, so feel a little bit wronged and stand in the corner Go a little bit."

When Ariel announced her name, the female worker seemed a little surprised. She pointed to her nose and said, "Boss Garcia, do you...know my name?"

Ariel showed a very curious expression, and said: "Of course I know your name, you were recruited by me, how could I not know your name? Also, Helen who is peeking outside now, Shirley, Sandy, don't be so cautious, making me seem like I want to eat people. You can all come in, don't stand stupidly at the door."

The female workers who were peeking outside the door did not expect their names to be remembered by the Baroness Garcia. They were both surprised and delighted for a while.The male employees on the other side saw that the faces of these female employees gradually changed from panic to joy just now, and they were a little unaware of the situation, but now they silently joined together.

Ariel took off the two cloaks on her body, threw them to Duck who was huddled in the corner, exhaled, and said with a smile: "Well, I've been busy all this time, so I haven't had time to come and see you guys. Let's have a good chat. It's rare to be free today, so I want to ask you if you have any needs or any ideas before you go to bed."

As she said that, Ariel turned to the female hired worker sitting beside her, and said with a smile: "You have been in Pelican City for almost half a month, do you feel any inconvenience in your current life? The living is okay. ?"

Of course, the female hired worker didn't dare to say anything, she quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, no! I... I'm doing well! Thank you, Baron... I used to be a beggar... I didn't even have a place to sleep at night... Now I can have such a room to sleep in... I feel very lucky..."

At this moment, Ariel's face immediately pulled down: "What is this saying? You can be a beggar before, but now you are still going to be a beggar? Are you looking down on me, Ariel Garcia?!"

Maybe the female employee didn't expect the boss to get angry at all?

Facing Ariel's serious expression, the female worker couldn't hold back after all, stood up and wanted to kneel down in front of her.Anyway, it's better to apologize now, right?

but……

"I don't want to blame you, nor do I want to say anything about you. I hired you because I hope you can help me with work. But I hope you can live a happier life here, be happier, and don't be like before. It's so destabilizing."

Ariel turned her head, looked at the female workers standing at the door, and said slowly——

"Also, don't take me too seriously. My birth is not much nobler than yours. In essence, there is no difference between me and you. So, you don't have to be too nervous about me. We just As ordinary neighbors, although our daily work is different, our status is equal. So, we just chat with each other."

Having said that, Ariel stretched out her hand and grabbed the female employee's hand. Feeling that her palm was getting cold, she said slowly with a gentle smile——

"So, if you have any difficulties, just tell me directly. As long as I can do it, I will try my best to solve it."

Chapter 79 Brainstorming

Seeing Ariel's sincere expression now, the female worker froze for a moment.Then she turned her head and looked at the female workers who were also standing outside.After hesitating for a moment, he finally swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said slowly——

"That...boss...if I can..."

Ariel took out a notepad from her pocket, opened it, took out a pen, and prepared to record.

"If it's okay...can we...can we take some...of the cotton we spun...to make a quilt?"

The female worker seemed a little nervous, and said cautiously——

"God...it's really cold...our quilts are relatively thin...it will be really cold when you sleep at night..." Ariel wrote this down in her notes and nodded with a smile , Said: "So that's the case, I'll touch it."

She stretched out her hand to touch the quilt, and found that it was indeed thin enough, and then said: "I understand, so how about it, tomorrow each of you go to get two catties of cotton and make a quilt. And everyone outside, you Everyone gets one."

After hearing Ariel's words, the female workers outside and the male workers gathered on both sides immediately cheered happily!

Because there is a beginning, then the following questions will naturally begin to increase.Soon, a male worker tried his best to get in, and said to Ariel eagerly: "Boss! Can we... get another place to cook? The room each of us lives in is too small , There is really no room for cooking, I have been eating boiled things these days, and I am a little tired."

Ariel nodded, stretched out her finger and pointed to the ground, and said with a smile: "This request is also reasonable. If I remember correctly, this apartment should have twenty rooms, right? There are fifteen of you, then you will choose one Let’s use one room as a kitchen. I will contact the owner of the props shop to make some kitchen and bathroom tools.”

The suggestion was adopted again, and the employees seemed even more excited.Right now, the way they looked at Ariel was completely as if they were looking at a god.

Under their cheers, Ariel walked out of the room with a smile and came to the corridor.She raised her head and looked at the ropes for hanging clothes above her head, and said, "Besides, do we need some places to dry clothes? Ah, since we need to dry clothes, we should also wash clothes. The place to boil water can be in the kitchen Solve it, if you want to wash and dry clothes, you can choose the rest of the room to solve."

"Other than that, do you have any entertainment here? If not...do you know how to play Guozhan cards? How about I ask an assassin from our guild to teach you how to play Guozhan cards? I think he should Will be very happy. This kind of game seems to be more fun with more people. I can have a competition every quarter. In addition, everyone can think about what else they can play. Playing ball? Playing chess? Arm wrestling? Even competitions There is no problem with guessing. You can express your ideas, here, we are all equal, and everyone’s brainstorming is definitely more efficient than my own thinking."

Once upon a time, these most ordinary civilians and even untouchables have seen such a "noble" who really treats them "equally"?

Seeing that this noble lord is really willing to stand with them, talk together, discuss things together, and laugh happily together, this kind of gentleness that has never been felt by those polite but distant big men in the past, immediately let These hired workers have a feeling called "home".

Some of them were more sensitive and even cried outright.But amidst these moving voices, one employee hesitated for a long time, and finally he had the courage to speak out what was in his heart——

"Boss... Boss, you are really kind to us... If... If you can really say anything... Then I want to make an opinion... Can you?"

Seeing the hired worker raise his hand, Ariel smiled and nodded at him.

The hired worker wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "Boss, it's like this. When we are working these days, the spindles used to pull the threads will always get entangled with each other after a while, and the threads on them will also get entangled. It's a mess. So almost every two or three hours, we stop and straighten the threads. I think... Boss, this is just a small suggestion from me. I think... Can we make the arc of the spindle Don’t make it so steep? Make the spindle a little longer, so that the position of each silk thread can be clearly distinguished, and it won’t be entangled anymore.”

This is a good suggestion.

Because no matter for Ariel or Tesla, it is impossible for them to squat in the factory all day and watch those textile machines operate continuously for three hours.

When Tesla designed these spindles, he did not take into account the thickness of the silk thread itself, so as time went by, small flaws gradually accumulated and became a big problem that required shutdown to arrange the silk thread.

So, this is really a good question!

After thinking about it for a while, Ariel understood the reasoning behind it. Immediately afterwards, the smile on her face disappeared, and changed into a very diligent attitude. She took out a pen and recorded in detail the employee's request The problem.

And the employees around saw that their suggestions would actually be adopted by the boss wholeheartedly, and the last bit of grudge in their hearts disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, many problems that they would encounter in their daily work were all gushed out at this time, and they were all gathered in Ariel's little book.

Such a scene is a very harmonious scene for Ariel and these employees.

But for Dake who could only keep watching, such a scene really made him, the young master of a rich family, somewhat puzzled and incomprehensible.

It turns out... Can nobles really communicate with these most ordinary people on an equal footing?

It turns out that the president of my family, who is the mistress of the royal family, doesn't really know everything about everything, and she also needs to listen to other people's opinions.When others point out what is not enough, will she really write it down and seek improvement in future work?

Noble... The so-called nobility, in the eyes of this president, her title of nobility didn't make her feel that she should keep a distance from those common people, and it didn't make her feel that she could already be superior, just like a general commanding soldiers Did she drive them to act according to her own will, but let her use her noble title to get more acquainted with those commoners?

but……

Is this really possible?

Isn't the so-called title of nobility originally intended to distinguish the upper class with noble blood from the lower class?

If the nobles themselves do not distinguish themselves from these inferiors...

What is the meaning of the title of nobility?

Thinking about it again, if I really followed my father's instructions to marry the princess and obtain the title of nobleman, would I be able to treat every commoner equally like this president?

To deal with these... Whether it is strength, knowledge, or vision, they are far inferior to my own... civilians...

"Hey, Duck, what are you thinking?"

Unexpectedly, Ariel in front of her suddenly yelled, which shocked Dak, and he quickly came back to his senses and shook his head.

"It's nothing, maybe... the wound hasn't healed yet, I'm a little tired."

Ariel curled her lips and said, "Well, it's time for us to go back."

As she said that, Ariel smiled again at the hired workers: "Thank you for your suggestions, I will remember them well now! But I can't guarantee that every suggestion can be adopted, after all, it depends on whether we can still solve it."

The faces of the employees are full of joy, without any expression of displeasure.

"In addition, although everyone's opinions are very good, there is one thing that I hope everyone can do together."

Ariel put away the notepad, shook the pen in her hand, and said with a smile——

"Everyone present, how many people can read and write? Or, to put it more simply, how many people can write their own names? Or just write their own names?"

The beaming expressions of these employees just now became dull for a moment. They looked at each other and looked at you. Among the fifteen people, only three raised their hands carefully, expressing that they could at least write their own. name.

Ariel shook her head and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's not what I expected. But it's okay! If everyone can't read and write, then I hope that when you work here, at least everyone can master at least How to write a thousand words, can understand some simple words and sentences, can try to write a letter to my family members far away. I will take the time to teach you, if I don’t have time, I will also let the mermaid The members of the song teach everyone."

"Although, this matter of mine cannot be regarded as forcing everyone to learn to read and write. After all, I can only teach you after you get off work, which will undoubtedly take up your rest time. So in name, this is A voluntary course.”

"But I still hope that everyone can participate as much as possible. After all, your work can be said to be for me, but learning to read and write is for your own sake."
