Gu Yundong was not very familiar with Xuanhe Prefecture. Zhuangzi still had to be a shopkeeper in Fengkai County for three months. He had to nurture Chen Jincai before he could come to the prefectural city.
During this period of time, she could not let Zheng Gang work alone. That would be too tiring. She had to hire two more people to help.
“Recruit one. Before Zhuangzi comes to the prefectural city, let Ah Shu stay here for three months,” Shao Qingyuan said.
Firstly, Ah Shu was quite skilled now. If a local hooligan came, he would be shocked.
Secondly, although the shop in the prefecture capital was big, two assistants were enough. If they recruited more, they would probably fight when Zhuangzi came over later.
Gu Yundong nodded. “Why don’t we write a recruitment notice outside the shop?”
Shao Qingyuan was about to nod when Zheng Gang said hesitantly, “Boss, can I recommend someone?”
Gu Yundong was stunned. “Of course. It would be best if Uncle Zheng had a suitable candidate. It would also save us the trouble of looking for people with completely unfamiliar personalities.”
Zheng Gang sighed. “I do have a candidate, but…”
Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan looked at each other. “Go ahead.”
“In the past, when I was a shopkeeper in this prefectural city, there was a shop assistant called Changshun. He was very hardworking and dutiful. However, there was a day when money was lost in the shop. No matter how hard I searched, I couldn’t find it. Later, someone said that Changshun’s mother was sick. She originally didn’t have the money to treat her illness, but she suddenly obtained a sum of money and used that money to buy good medicine to treat her illness.”
Zheng Gang sighed. “Boss suspected that Changshun had stolen the money. Changshun naturally denied it and explained that the money for his mother’s treatment was given to him by a kind person because Changshun had helped that person. Boss didn’t believe it and asked him to find that kind person. However, he was only passing by the Xuanhe Prefecture. How could Changshun find him? Boss beat Changshun up and chased him out of the shop.”
“At that time, this matter was quite big. Many shops around knew about it. Therefore, after Changshun was chased away, it was too difficult to find a job. I knew that Changshun definitely didn’t do this, but I didn’t have evidence. I couldn’t help him even if I wanted to. It wasn’t until a couple of days before I left that shop that I unintentionally heard that the money was secretly taken away by the boss’s son. It had nothing to do with Changshun.”
Unfortunately, so what if he knew?
His old boss was already dead and he had been chased out of the shop. The only thing he could do was to go to Changshun’s house and tell him the truth.
Changshun cried especially sadly when he heard that. The injustice on his body was finally washed away. He was not a thief.
However, the surrounding neighbors did not eliminate their prejudice against Changshun because of Zheng Gang’s testimony. They even felt that it was because Zheng Gang had been chased away by the boss, so he was dissatisfied and took revenge on the boss. Anyway, Zheng Gang did not have evidence.
Zheng Gang really wanted to help Changshun, but he was also worried that those rumors would affect the business of the shop, so he hesitated.
Gu Yundong nodded. “Of course I believe in Uncle Zheng. As long as Changshun’s character is fine, it doesn’t matter. Zhuangzi used to be a hooligan in the village, but hasn’t he become a shopkeeper now? But I want to meet the shop assistant called Shunzi first.”
Zheng Gang was overjoyed. The wrinkles on his face were squeezed into a ball. “I’ll go find him now.”ƒгeewёbnovel.com
