Chapter 692: Weird as Hell, First Formal Job!

After the people who came to promote Qiankun Grain Store got off the bus, the medium-sized energy vehicle stopped in front of the town gate of Sangtian Town in a short while.

Compared with Mingyue Town, there are obviously more people here, most of whom are outsiders wearing temporary identity cards.

However, in terms of specific town planning and architectural style, there is no big difference between the two towns. Both are relatively mature commercial towns.

"Get off the bus, get off the bus. If you are willing to go to Qiankun Grain Store, come here to get a business card. You can increase your basic treatment by 1 point. If you are willing to go to another grain store, forget it."

"If you don't want a business card, get off the bus quickly, don't squeeze at the door!"

Just after saying to take the business card, the driver paused and stopped talking at the second half of the sentence when he saw the surging crowd.

Obviously, he also knew how one-sided the competition in the town was after Qiankun Grain Store sent out the powerful weapon of energy stone tools.

If anyone still goes to Zizailiangfang now, it's not that his brain is stuck in the door, it's that he can't get along with money.

"Brother Zong, should we take it?"

After finally squeezing out of the car door with the things in hand and watching Oreo get off the car, Huang Xiaojuan wiped the sweat from her palms and was quite tempted.

After working in the fields for three days, she knew very well how much help a good sickle could bring.

Compare the ordinary sickle with the energy stone sickle.

When you have just eaten a full meal or just started working and your physical strength is at its peak, there is no qualitative difference between the two sickles. The latter can only save a little physical strength to do more work.

But when your physical strength has reached the bottom and your arms are difficult to lift, the difference in sickles will be immediately reflected.

An ordinary sickle, swinging once, is not only a test of physical strength, but also a shock to your mentality.

And the energy stone sickle can provide more help when your physical strength reaches the bottom, affecting your mentality, and producing a 1+1>2 effect.

If you really want to work, whether for money or for yourself, no one will be stupid enough to choose an ordinary sickle.

"Well, don't worry, let's find a place to stay first."

"There should be a lot of such cards in the town."

Looking at the crowded crowd at the door of the car, Su Mo shook his head and took the lead to pick up the big and small bags and walked into the town.

It's not that he doesn't like this rebate.

But Huang Xiaojuan is a territory worker and can't enter such a private shop. He himself doesn't do ordinary harvesting work, so it's useless to take this thing.

On the contrary, now before the influx of foreign population, it is the key to find a place to stay as soon as possible.

"Su Youzong, eh, received it!"

"Deposit two and pay one, collect your deposit of 180 points, the first month's rent is 90 points, a total of 270 points"

In front of a slightly shabby courtyard, looking at the extra 270 points in his account.

Middle-aged aunt Zhang Meili happily tore a piece of paper from the notebook, issued a simple receipt and handed it to Su Mo.

Her house is in Sangtian Town, not in the central area.

On the contrary, this place is a bit remote, surrounded by empty houses or abandoned public buildings.

In previous years, although these three bungalows also came with a small yard, they could only be rented out at a maximum of 70 points.

Now, if they can be rented out at 90 points, they will naturally make a lot of money.

"Okay, I still have the same request. You can come here except when I collect rent every month"

"I prefer quietness at other times, so please don't disturb me"

Su Mo took the receipt, wiped the sweat from his head, and put it in his pocket.

"Okay, okay, I will definitely not disturb you"

Zhang Meili was very happy to receive 20 points more, and her head shook like a rattle.

But before leaving, looking at the clothes of the two people, she thought about it and took out another piece of paper from the notebook.

"Mr. Su, if you are considering working in the grain store, you can take this card to Zizailiangfang"

"This is our Zhang family's property, you can get two rebates~"

"Oh, OK!"

Nodding, watching Zhang Meili leave at three times the speed when she came, Su Mo stretched his shoulders and pushed open the gate of the courtyard.

Three brick-concrete bungalows, with a courtyard, have an area of ​​about 200 square meters.

If this area is in the center of Sangtian Town, the rent can reach an exaggerated 300 points per month.

But in this remote place, it is directly discounted by 70%, which is very cost-effective.

And few people pass by here.

It just fits Su Mo's idea of ​​transforming one of the rooms into a studio.

"It's really fate"

"I didn't expect that as a lord, I would have to rent a house in my own territory one day!"

Seeing that Oreo had already gone in to have fun, Huang Xiaojuan was also curious and looked here and there.

Although Su Mo sighed, he was very happy in his heart.

In the next year, he will most likely settle down here and conduct a lot of research and manufacturing.

In a sense, the time he lives here may be longer than in the underground shelter.

"Xiaojuan, you clean up first, I'll go out to check the work"

"I'll bring dinner back when the time comes"

"Okay, Brother Zong!"

With a sweet smile, Huang Xiaojuan has obviously taken on the role of hostess.

Accompanied by the weird cry of Oreo next to him.

Su Mo nodded, squatted down with confidence, took out the resume in his bag and walked towards the center of the town.

When he just came over, even though it was a quick glance, he still saw the bustling crowd in front of Qiankun Food Store.

A rough estimate shows that there should be no less than 500 people queuing up.

On the other side, Zizailiangfang was much more pitiful. Although there was a queue in front of the door, there were only a dozen or so people.

When the two sides compared each other, they immediately reached a conclusion.

Naturally, Somo set his first destination at Qiankun Food Store.

Passed through several streets and walked through two alleys.

All the way to the Qiankun Grain Shop, I didn’t have to wait in a long queue because the positions I applied for were different, which saved me a lot of time.

But what made people unprepared was when they followed the staff at the door and entered the interview waiting area in the store.

Only then did Sumo realize that there were more than a dozen electricians in front of him.

"Brother, are you here to apply for a development job too?"

Seeing Somo sitting down, a thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks came over.

"My name is Sun Quan. Hehe, I am the Sun Quan from Three Kingdoms. How do you call me?"

"Su Youzong"

Faced with this man's enthusiasm, Sumo couldn't refuse, so he just said his name and stopped talking.

But what I didn't expect was that Sun Quan seemed to be a little too familiar.

He couldn't help but start changing the topic, trying to pry some information out of his mouth to understand the strength of his competitors.

Tired of being asked, Sumo had no choice but to hand over his resume.

“Holy shit, you’re a free market electrician?”

An exclamation immediately attracted the attention of others on the bench.

But before everyone could get into a commotion, the door to the interview room was pushed open and a middle-aged man with eyes walked in.

"Ahem, I am today's interviewer. I am also the only partner of Qiankun Food Bank and the leader of the development team of Manufacturing Zero."

"You can just call me Senior Engineer"

As he spoke, although the senior engineer was polite in tone, anyone could see the undisguised disgust in his eyes.

After being treated like this, a thorny figure immediately stood up and started to act strangely.

"Senior Engineer, you are so arrogant. You have made us wait here for two hours. What's wrong? You can still do it now."

"go out!"

"Um?"

"I said, get out, you have been passed!"

When Thorny first spoke up, others were still gloating about his misfortune and wanted to see how Senior Engineer would deal with it.

What he didn't expect was that before the man finished speaking, the elegantly dressed senior engineer roared like an incompetent and furious old lion.

At the same time, after he finished speaking, four security guards came in at the door, looking malicious.

"Fuck, if you don't want to recruit people, just say so. It's a waste of my time."

He cursed and looked at the electric baton in the security guard's hand. In the end, he didn't dare to jump anymore, so he had to leave through the front door.

The remaining people were so frightened that they had no intention of causing trouble.

“I don’t want to repeat the rules a second time, and I don’t want to repeat the questions a second time.”

"Starting from you, I will only say each question once, and you will have thirty seconds to think about it. If you come up with an answer, you will stay. If you cannot answer it, I will leave."

Pointing at the short man in the first row, the senior engineer announced the rules very quickly.

After seeing that there was no objection from below, he smiled with satisfaction, took out the interview questions he had prepared on his chest, sat down at the table and started asking questions.

"The first question is, I spilled water on my clothes. Why did the color of my clothes change?"

"Thirty seconds countdown!"

A simple but not simple question frightened the short man suddenly.

Before that, he guessed that the other party might want to test their hands-on skills or knowledge about mechanical maintenance and manufacturing, so he made a lot of preparations in this regard.

But now, the raising of this question suddenly made him feel at a loss.

Waiting until the thirty seconds were almost over, the short man bit his lip and said with difficulty: "Because the clothes are wet?"

"go out!"

As soon as the senior engineer's scolding voice fell, the security guard took another step forward. The short man was so frightened that he could only stand up and walk out of the interview room in despair.

For a moment, the interview room became quiet again.

"You, keep answering!"

"I don't know, I'm not good at this, I'm mechanical"

"go out!"

As if he had decided on his question, the second interviewer was coaxed out of the interview room by the senior engineer before he could finish his explanation.

Such a scene is truly unheard of and unseen in normal interviews.

Visible to the naked eye, many people in the interview room looked a little pale.

"Fortunately, I am the last one. They have all eliminated me. I should be selected."

Sitting in the last row, I watched the interviewees who were directly screened out after just one question came out one after another.

Su Mo couldn't help but shake his head, and there were only two words left in his mind:

Weird!

But there is no other way. After all, it is their home court. Even if the other party asks how to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, they can only answer.

After a while, as the thirteenth person walked out, it was finally Sun Quan's turn.

Unlike others, as soon as he stood up, he said confidently: "Senior Engineer, I know this because the relative refractive index affects reflection. When the object is in water, the relative refractive index is lower than in the air, so the diffuse reflection ratio is It’s low in the air, so it appears dark.”

"Um?"

Glancing at Sun Quan in surprise, the senior engineer seemed a little surprised.

But in the end he nodded and cleared his throat: "Well, that's the truth"

"But this is the first question, there are nine more to come, listen carefully"

"When people walk on the road, how many forces do they have to bear in total"

Compared with the first question, this question is obviously much simpler.

After thinking for only five or six seconds, Sun Quan confidently said: "Gravity, support force of the ground, friction force of the ground"

"Go out!"

"Huh? I"

I was prepared to listen to the third question, but when I suddenly heard the word "go out", Sun Quan was a little confused.

He instinctively wanted to question, but after seeing the security guard, he had to leave the scene like the previous interviewer.

For a while, there were only three people left in the field.

Without any surprise, the two people in front of Su Mo also failed to answer the correct answer, and left one after another.

In just less than ten minutes, Su Mo was the only one left among the seventeen people.

"Gravity, support force, friction, and air resistance"

Based on Sun Quan, Su Mo stood up and answered softly.

From the beginning till now, he could tell that this Qiankun Grain Store was definitely not sincere in recruiting people.

Whether it was the attitude of the engineer or the strangeness of these questions, they all reflected this fact.

Sure enough, after hearing the answer, the engineer's expression remained unchanged and he continued to ask the third question:

"How to hide from the rain without an umbrella?"

"No need to hide, because it's a meteor shower"

"What will solidify quickly when exposed to heat?"

"Eggs"

""

Deliberately not answering the questions according to the routine, as Su Mo cleverly solved the questions one by one, the engineer's expression became more and more ugly.

Until the end of the ninth question.

Staring at Su Mo, who was still as steady as a rock, this time, he did not read the tenth question, but picked up the resume on the table and read it for the first time in a long time.

It was not until more than ten seconds later that he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Su Youzong, right? I've read your resume."

"According to the information described on the resume, you don't seem to have the ability to develop independently, right?"

Pointing to the skill column on the resume, Gao Gong smiled, with undisguised contempt in his tone.

Repressing his anger, Su Mo took a deep breath and shook his head:

"I have the ability to develop independently, but the cycle may be longer."

"Oh? If I ask you to develop a product similar to the Energy Stone Scythe, how many days will it take you?" Gao Gong continued to ask.

"Energy Stone Scythe, at least one month?"

Add a micro energy machine to an ordinary sickle, and attach the Energy Stone function.

If there are patent restrictions on this thing, it must be circumvented, and it may take some effort.

But for the wasteland with no taboos at the moment, this kind of thing with no technical content at all, Su Mo wanted to say that it would take at most one week.

But when he thought of the information he had collected before, the other party also took a lot of time to develop this product.

Before leaving, Su Mo paused again and changed a week to a month, intending to save some face for the other party.

However

"One month at the shortest? That's fine!"

"Sorry, your development ability has not been approved, please find another job"

Fearing that Su Mo would be angry and take action, Engineer Gao left directly after he finished speaking, leaving no chance.

This performance also directly explained the whole process from beginning to end.

This Qiankun Grain Store had no intention of recruiting people, it was just going through the motions.

"Sir, this is your resume. Sorry, our research team leader Engineer Gao has a bad temper, please forgive me"

After being fooled like this, facing the security guard who handed the resume back, Su Mo still suppressed his anger in his heart, stood up and took it with a smile.

Without leaving any harsh words or showing any other emotions, Su Mo only secretly remembered the name "Engineer Gao" in his heart, turned around and went out and went straight to Zizailiangfang at the end of the street.

Before, he planned to visit a few more stores.

But now, Buddhas fight for a stick of incense, and people fight for a breath.

Without overthrowing the Qiankun Grain Store, Su Mo felt that this thought in his mind would not be able to come to fruition.

"Wow, buddy, you were also eliminated?"

"This Qiankun Grain Store is really a beast, they are clearly playing tricks on us!"

"They only want to select people who can develop energy stone tools, and don't give Zizai Liangfang a chance. As for other ordinary people, they are all cannon fodder!"

There were not many people queuing in front of Zizai Liangfang. As soon as Su Mo came over, he ran into Sun Quan again.

But this time, after being disgusted by the senior engineer, he no longer had the previous jumpiness and looked a little sad.

"But fortunately, this Zizai Liangfang is very generous. Look, they are recruiting a lot of people."

"It should be a desperate fight!"

Following the direction pointed by Sun Quan, Su Mo also noticed the wooden sign with the recruitment notice.

"Hey, how did the number of people change from one person to fifteen?"

After taking out the small book in his pocket and confirming that the notice he saw yesterday was still recruiting one person, Su Mo couldn't help but feel strange.

But then, after thinking about the current status of Qiankun Grain Store, Su Mo quickly felt relieved.

Without the stone sickle, Zizailiangfang, which only uses traditional tools, is obviously no match.

In this case, if you want to fight back, you must bet everything and develop similar tools to grab labor.

"But then again, this Zizailiangfang can actually provide a workshop for each electrician?"

"Can it also provide some research and manufacturing tools to the best of its ability based on contributions?"

"If that's the case, this treatment just meets my requirements!"

Read the job advertisement in full.

Su Mo said to himself, and couldn't help but perk up.
