Chapter VI Recruitment
If you are sure to write and start plagiarism, and you know that the first step is to find a writing assistant, then Jing Yu will start to take action.
As for how to find such an assistant, it is very simple. What Jing Yu thought of was advertising in the newspaper.
After all, he had seen a lot of recruitment advertisements in the newspapers sent by his servants, as well as job advertisements sent by his individuals, but most of them were tutors or other things.
So Jing Yu decided to do the same.
He pulled the ringtone and summoned the servant again, asked him to find himself some letter paper and envelopes, and asked him, "Do you know where the post office is?"
"Yes, sir, I often send letters to the customers in the store," the servant explained.
"Very good, buy a few stamps by the way." Jing Yu gave him some money and asked him to buy more. He felt that the stamps should have been invented at this time.
Sure enough, the servant understood.
Although Jing Yu had paper around him, he didn't think it was a good idea to use the paper he brought, especially if it was sent to newspapers for external use, so he needed to be more cautious.
After the servant took these things back and sent him away, Jing Yu began to write on the desk by the window imitating the tone of advertisements in the newspaper:
"A gentleman from abroad is expected to live in London for a long time. He has a poor English writing level and needs to recruit an assistant who is proficient in writing and patient. If you are interested, please send it back to the old Oak Hotel, Mr. i.j. to receive it."
Jing Yu read it several times and modified the words that were inconsistent with the spelling in the newspaper, then sealed them in an envelope, and placed the banknotes by the way. This was the fee he should have calculated according to the advertising charge standards listed in the newspaper.
Yes, yes, there is no remittance business in this era, and small amounts of money can be sent directly by letter. Of course, if you have a little more, you should use another method.
I wrote it according to the newspaper address listed in the newspaper, and then put it up, and did not call the servant to send the letter directly.
This is also a habit he has developed since work. In the past, even if he wrote the email, he would put it in the draft box first instead of clicking "Send" directly. After waiting for half an hour or more, he would check it again and confirm that there was no problem before sending it.
This habit has helped him avoid many pitfalls at work, so even when he came to this strange place, he still had no plans to change.
After putting the sealed letter in the drawer, he felt a little hungry.
It has been a whole day since he was early in the morning to suddenly appearing here. After almost being robbed by a group of children, rescued, and finally settled in the hotel. After calming down, he felt hungry. It has been eight or nine hours since he had breakfast in the hotel in the morning. During this period, he has not been in a drip of water, but because his spirit has been in a state of tension, and then his thinking and thinking have changed, he did not notice it.
After calming down a little, he finally felt the feedback from his body, so Jing Yu habitually raised his wrist to see the time, but he found that his watch had been pawned.
Fortunately, there is someone who can help you confirm the time in this era, and he habitually pulled the bell rope.
"Sir, do you need anything?" the servant asked respectfully.
“What time is it now”
"I've seen the clock before, it's already past 5 o'clock, and now it should be 5:30."
"Ah, time passes so quickly," Jing Yu sighed, "Do you have anything to eat here?"
"Of course, sir," the servant immediately replied, "We have roasted lamb, stew, and beef stewed with vegetables, meat patties, salted fish, pea soup, and vegetables include cauliflower, boiled chickpeas, lemon pudding, black currant pudding, etc., and many more to eat."
Then he continued, "Sir, should I send it to you in the room or do you go down to eat?"
Jing Yu listened to the other party's skillful registration of dishes, and felt that he had returned to his time studying in the UK. He had basically eaten a lot of these dishes back then. He just didn't know whether the famous British dish "Fresh Fries Fried Fish" in his time had been invented, and whether dark dishes such as "Looking up at the stars" had appeared. He couldn't help but smile.
The servant found that he was not talking, so he asked again. When he heard the servant's inquiry, he immediately came to his senses and said, "I'll go down and eat~"
He wanted to go down and see the other people who lived in this hotel.
Just when he came to the restaurant below, Jing Yu found that he had made a mistake.
At this time, the sun had not yet set, and the light shone in through the glass of the window, making the restaurant not very bright, but it was easy to see through. There were not many guests eating inside, so when he came down the stairs, everyone's eyes swept to him together.
When those people saw that his appearance and clothes were obviously different from those sitting, they paid more attention to him.
Jing Yu couldn't help but regret that he shouldn't have come down. Maybe it was a good choice to let the servant send the meal to his room. Unfortunately, it was too late at this time. He felt that if he turned his head back to his room in shame, it would be equivalent to letting the people here know that he was a coward.
Jing Yu could probably imagine what kind of treatment a coward who seemed to be rich from a foreign country would receive in this era.
So he didn't want to take this risk, but quietly cheered himself up and continued to walk down the stairs with nothing to do, came to them, and found an empty seat to sit down.
Then the waiter of the restaurant came forward to inquire. Jing Yu chose a vegetable beef soup, a roast lamb chop, bread and refined butter as his main dish and staple food. He also ordered a cup of coffee and pudding as his dessert.
As for the price, he had no concern at all.
Soon the waiter brought the food and looked at the black and sticky broth in front of him. Although he was worried about the food safety issues of this era, hunger still drove him to eat it.
As a person familiar with British food, Jing Yu does not have any expectations about the taste of these things. He can fill his stomach and comfort himself while taking it. Anyway, he also brings some antibiotics and diarrhea medicines, which are essential items he will have every long-term business trip to prevent himself from being unacceptable to the local environment.
Jing Yu’s concerns are not aimless. You should know that the air in London in this era is dirty, and the water sources are polluted by the excrement of various humans and animals, factory sewage, and dead livestock. The famous Thames River is comparable to the smelly water river in Longxugou in this era.
