Qin Rushuang had doubts in her heart, but at this moment, Boss Xiao was still inside, and there were many guests inside, so she couldn't go in to inquire anymore, so she could only suppress her doubts first.
She has no intention of visiting Xiao's Clothing Factory now.
An idea suddenly came to Qin Rushuang's mind. It was better to go to a crowded place to inquire and ask what kind of existence Boss Xiao was in other people's eyes. They might gain something they didn't expect.
Qin Rushuang did what she said and took Xie Xun and Qingzhi to the largest teahouse in the south of the Yangtze River.
Since they wanted to inquire about information, they did not go to the private room upstairs, but sat down in the lobby where there were the most people.
Today is the opening day of Boss Xiao's private school, and the guests in the lobby are also talking about it. Not long after Qin Rushuang sat down, she heard several people talking about Boss Xiao.
Qin Rushuang called the waiter and gave some cakes and tea to the people at that table. As expected, those people turned their heads and looked at Qin Rushuang's table. They saw that it was a woman, but they were too embarrassed to come over to say hello.
Qin Rushuang led Xie Xun and Qingzhi to their table in a very considerate manner.
That table is a large round table, so they won't feel crowded when they sit there.
When those people saw Qin Rushuang coming, they quickly raised their hands and thanked them: "This lady just gave us cakes and tea? It was really a waste of money!"
"Where is it?" Qin Rushuang waved her hands and said, "My husband and I have just arrived in Jiangnan. We are both doing business. We are new here. Today we heard a lot of rumors about Boss Xiao, so I want to find out who this Boss Xiao is.
Lu Shenxian? How could he have so many people praising him so much?"
Speaking of this, several people suddenly became interested, and they talked about what they knew about Boss Xiao.
But it's all the same to say the least.
Boss Xiao is also very business-minded and has made Xiao's business prosperous. In addition, Boss Xiao is very kind-hearted, which is mainly related to the opening of the private school today.
Qin Rushuang nodded after hearing this. She knew all this, so he asked another question she wanted to know.
"To tell you the truth, I have heard all what you just said, but after all, my husband and I are both businessmen and we want to find out something else."
The few people looked at each other, and one of the older ones said: "If Madam wants to find out some business secrets, we laymen don't know about it. If it's other things, Madam might as well talk about it and see if we can
Can't help you."
"Actually, it's not a big deal. I heard that Xiao's workers have followed Boss Xiao for many years and traveled all over the country. I just want to know what Boss Xiao can do to make the workers so loyal to him."
After saying that, he added: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. When my husband and I were doing business, the biggest headache was the issue of workers' retention. I finally managed to get things done smoothly, but all the long-term workers left due to various reasons."
Let’s find new workers and teach them all over again, which is really embarrassing for us!”
Those people breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the question they asked was not a particularly difficult question, so they said, "We do know something about this matter."
"Boss Xiao is famous for his kindness to his people. This kind of kindness is not only reflected in the workers of Xiao's Trading Company, who get a lot of money every month, but also those people who followed Boss Xiao to Jiangnan. Boss Xiao
Knowing that the land in Jiangnan was expensive, he built a large house and arranged for the workers to rest in it."
"I heard that the workers' clothes, food, and food are all arranged in a unified way. They are really their reborn parents! All arrangements for food, clothing, housing, and transportation have been made! By the way, there are also the children of the workers. Do you all know that the private school is opening today?
Boss Xiao even takes care of the workers’ children, how can this worker not be completely devoted to them?”
One of them said again: "Oh, by the way, the only thing is that Boss Xiao is very nostalgic. The workers of Xiao are all those who have worked with Boss Xiao for a long time. It has been more than a year and almost two years since he came to Jiangnan.
But I don’t see Xiao looking for workers in Jiangnan. If they are recruiting, there will definitely be many people who want to give it a try!"
Qin Rushuang was thoughtful after listening.
Why don’t we recruit local people from Jiangnan...?
She asked again: "Do you know where Boss Xiao arranges for these workers to stay? What they said made me even more curious about Boss Xiao, and I really want to observe it."
"It's not hard to find. It's at the end of Changxing Street. You can see that it's a newly built place and it's connected together. Although Changxing Street is a bit remote and far from the busy city, it's still a peaceful place.
"
"Oh, by the way, Boss Xiao also attaches great importance to the safety of workers. Outsiders are generally not allowed in. If you two just want to take a look outside, just go there and see as I say.
"
Qin Rushuang nodded, and called the waiter to order some sugar water for them. She smiled at a few people and said, "Thank you so much for today. Let's leave now."
After leaving the teahouse, Qin Rushuang said to Xie Xun, "What do you think, the prince, of what these people said?"
Xie Xun shook his head, "You can't tell anything just by what they said. Let's go to Changxing Street and take a look."
It was indeed a long way from here to Changxing Street, so Qingzhi volunteered to go to the palace to call a carriage.
Xie Xun took pity on her as a little girl standing in the bright sun and was afraid that she would be burned out, so he said, "You stay here and guard the princess. I will go and come back soon."
Qingzhi agreed. She vaguely felt that the prince liked the princess more and more now, and he was also very kind to her. Is this the so-called love for the house and the bird?
After a while, the coachman came with the carriage. Xie Xun helped Qin Rushuang onto the carriage, while Qingzhi sat with the coachman outside.
The carriage wandered for a long time before reaching Changxing Street. Qin Rushuang got off the carriage with Xie Xun's help, but she frowned as soon as she got off the carriage.
Changxing Street is located in a remote location. Qin Rushuang thought it wouldn't be too prosperous, but she didn't expect it to be so dilapidated.
She took another look at the tea patrons and told them that the place used by Boss Xiao to house the workers was also very poorly built. He probably bought several nearby houses and just opened them up and connected them together.
In particular, in some places, the walls and roofs are in dilapidated condition, looking as if they are crumbling and about to fall down. Moreover, this kind of house will definitely leak whenever it rains.
Qin Rushuang thought secretly, it seems that Boss Xiao is not as considerate to the workers as rumored...
They watched the excitement at the private school for a while today, and then went to the teahouse to inquire about some things. They wandered on Changxing Street for a long time, and the sun was almost setting.
So Qin Rushuang suggested: "Why don't we get on the carriage and rest for a while, and wait for the workers to come back later. Although we can't get in, we can stop one or two to ask about the situation."
Xie Xun nodded: "That's okay, but you can't wait too long. It's time for you to eat."
Qin Rushuang stuck out her tongue, "How can I be so delicate?"
Xie Xun said helplessly: "Okay, I am a delicate king. I hope that the princess can accompany the king back to his mansion for dinner soon."
Qin Rushuang originally thought that it would only take a short while to see the workers returning from work, but she did not expect that no one would come back until late at night.
