Chapter 315 Chen Shuxian?
Chapter 315 Chen Shuxian?
Lu Zhenyuan walked towards the stern. There were two ways to board the ship. The side of the hull could be opened, but only when the weather was calm or when the ship was anchored in the port, while the stern could be opened at any time.
When he arrived at the stern, the person who was asking for help had already been rescued by two attendants. One was responsible for pulling the person up, while the other stood guard at the back with his hands on his waist.
Lu Zhenyuan was very satisfied with such a vigilant attitude.
The first person to be rescued was a woman. Her wet hair covered her face and she could not be seen clearly. She was now squatting on the deck, shivering. The other person was a mother and son.
The woman's head was broken and bleeding, and the child was severely frozen. If no remedial measures were taken, even if the two were sent to shore, the mother and child would not be able to hold on until then.
"Take them to deal with it. We have to save them, but don't let them die on the boat." Lu Zhenyuan instructed his followers.
The two followers should be.
There was a special rest room at the stern, and the attendants took the woman and the mother and child there. The mother and child were too weak, so the woman who was rescued first helped carry them in.
The previous commotion naturally attracted Lu Wanyi and others, and Lu Zhenyuan said something to them.
A moment later, in the lounge.
"Thank you, thank you for saving us!" The woman, who had treated her wounds and drank a bowl of medicine, regained some energy and spirit. When she saw Lu Zhenyuan, she immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to thank him repeatedly.
Lu Zhenyuan signaled his followers to help the child up. The child was still a little weak, so the woman held the child in her arms.
Lu Zhenyuan asked about the woman's situation and learned that her husband had come to Hong Kong Island to make a living in his early years and had now made a name for himself, so he wanted to take them over, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
Lu Zhenyuan didn't know what to say when he heard this. He really didn't know if the husband was just too careless or just too brainless.
This is illegal immigration, which is fraught with danger. Letting a woman bring her child here by herself, is this probably to change his wife? Could it be that the son is not his own?
From the woman's story, we learned that her name was A Mei. When Lu Zhenyuan complained about her husband's generosity, she actually explained that it was not just them and their son, but there were also several other people from the same hometown.
But it is obvious that those fellow villagers are unreliable.
After Lu Zhenyuan agreed to send them to the designated port first, the woman thanked him again and again. If Lu Zhenyuan hadn't had someone stop her, she would have kowtowed to him a few more times.
Lu Zhenyuan was really afraid that she would be killed. After all, she had been hit by several oars. If Yuyan hadn't thrown her a lifebuoy, she would have sunk into the sea.
After settling the mother and son, Lu Zhenyuan went to the compartment again, where there was another case to be dealt with.
Lu Zhenyuan knocked on the door and went in. The woman had already taken a shower and changed into dry clothes, but perhaps because of the shock and the fact that she almost drowned, she was still a little listless.
But when Lu Zhenyuan caught a glimpse of his face, he was stunned. This face was really too recognizable.
"What's your name? What's the matter with sneaking across the border?"
"My name is Gangsheng..."
【picture】
"Hmm?" Lu Zhenyuan deliberately snorted. When he heard the name, he basically confirmed who the other person was. He had met several girls like Chen Xueru, Bai Ling, and Zheng Juan before, so he was not surprised to meet the other person.
"You better tell me the truth, or I'll throw you back into the sea."
"what?"
The woman was startled, but faced with Lu Zhenyuan's oppressive height and aura, she could only tell the truth.
"First, sir, my real name is Chen Shuxian. I wanted to sneak to Hong Kong Island to live with my aunt. My mother said that we mainlanders are very discriminated against here, so she asked me to change my name to Hongsheng so that it would be easier to survive."
Lu Zhenyuan nodded secretly, there was no doubt about it.
This was the first time he had heard the name Chen Shuxian, but he was familiar with Hong Kong. This girl had smuggled into Hong Kong Island, but was spotted by a human snakehead and imprisoned. After she had a hard time escaping, she found her so-called aunt's house after some twists and turns.
As a result, her aunt was unable to help him, especially since her uncle coveted her beauty. After a lot of hardships, she was caught by the human snakehead and humiliated. What a miserable life she had.
Looking at the other person's appearance and that pitiful temperament, Lu Zhenyuan immediately became covetous.
Now that he had left the old city, he felt as if the sky was high and free for birds to fly freely. His heart seemed to be endless. He did not take others seriously and had no worries about anything he thought of.
He immediately said, "You stay here for a while and be my servant. I will pay you 1000 Hong Kong dollars a month!"
When she heard that she would be kept as a maid, Chen Shuxian wanted to refuse as she still wanted to go find her aunt. But when she heard that the salary was 1000 Hong Kong dollars, she was stunned.
Before coming to Hong Kong Island, she naturally did some homework and knew what 1000 Hong Kong dollars meant.
Currently, the monthly salary of most people in Hong Kong Island is between 50 Hong Kong dollars and 300 Hong Kong dollars. If you can earn 400 Hong Kong dollars or 500 Hong Kong dollars, you are considered superior.
Don’t even mention the per capita income. The poor have 50 Hong Kong dollars while the rich have tens of millions of US dollars. The average income of both of them combined makes them millionaires, but the poor are still poor.
Before she could recover from her shock, Lu Zhenyuan's voice continued to ring out.
"After we get home, I'll have someone take you to meet your aunt to let her know you're safe. It's up to you to choose whether to go or stay." Lu Zhenyuan said, letting Chen Shuxian know that the living conditions at her aunt's house were not easy, and she would feel embarrassed to trouble her aunt, as she would have to go back to his place anyway.
But he obviously underestimated Chen Shuxian's intelligence.
"Sir, I am willing to stay. I... want this job, but my identity..."
Lu Zhenyuan couldn't help but look at her with a higher opinion. She wasn't that indecisive. Thinking about it carefully, it made sense. In his impression, the other party was a little girl who had been desperate after meeting a human trafficker. She smuggled into Hong Kong Island, didn't know anywhere, and had no legal identity.
The only people I can turn to are my aunt's family.
But now that I have been offered the opportunity to gain benefits, it would be foolish not to seize the opportunity.
"Okay, I'll solve your identity problem. From now on, you will be my servant. Someone will come to teach you the rules later. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do something. Someone will teach you slowly."
"Well, first... Boss, are you really going to pay me 1000 Hong Kong dollars a month?" Chen Shuxian asked in disbelief, feeling a little nervous, afraid that she was being cheated.
Lu Zhenyuan rolled his eyes.
"Sister, I have such a big ship, do you think I can miss your salary?"
Chen Shuxian blushed immediately and apologized haltingly.
"Okay, the agreed salary is 1000, including food and accommodation, just wait a moment..." Lu Zhenyuan said, went out, and came back with a contract after a while.
"Here is the labor contract. Check if there are any problems. If not, sign it."
Chen Shuxian could read, so she looked at it and saw that the monthly salary was indeed 1000 Hong Kong dollars, and that it also included food and accommodation. Her eyes fell on the contract with a term of 10 years.
"Boss, this contract is for 10 years..."
"Why, you think it's too long?"
"No, it's not. I want to ask if it can be extended to 20 years. I am very skillful and can endure hardships. I can learn and do anything."
Lu Zhenyuan's mouth twitched, and he looked at Chen Shuxian with a strange look. The 10-year contract period was just something he filled in casually. He didn't believe that Chen Shuxian would be willing to leave after following him for a while.
By then, I’m afraid we won’t be able to drive them away.
However, seeing her sincere look, Lu Zhenyuan still chose to respect her. As long as she was happy, that was enough.
Finally, after friendly negotiations between the two, the contract period was set at 36 years.
Chen Shuxian thinks this way. She is only 19 years old now, and after working for 36 years she will only be 55 years old. Her monthly salary is 1000 Hong Kong dollars, which is 1.2 Hong Kong dollars a year, and 36 years is Hong Kong dollars.
The boss is so nice and provides food and accommodation. She can save this money so that she can easily support herself in her retirement and be very happy.
Looking at Chen Shuxian who was already looking forward to the future, Lu Zhenyuan was afraid that he would not be able to hold back his laughter, so he left the house directly and told her to rest first. There was no need to arrange another room for her, after all, they would arrive soon.
