Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Chapter 166 Baoshun Direct Hiring

Gu Yue and his group returned to the inn stealthily.

After removing the plant color from his face, he finally turned back into the scarred cripple Gu Dashi. After taking out the pills he got from the pharmacy and putting them away, Gu Yue sorted out the information revealed by the steward.

Since the whole process was just acting, there was not much information to ask. First of all, we know that there is more than one Baoshun Pharmacy in Guozhou Prefecture, but the only one that can make this kind of pain-relieving pills may be in Guozhou Prefecture.

It is not ruled out that the steward made up a lie that such a thing did not exist in other places in order to keep "Li Daniu" in Guozhou Prefecture.

Secondly, this pill has no name and is not widely circulated in the market. Otherwise, the guy would have recommended this pill to him without his performance.

Could it be that the poisonous weeds had not been planted for long?

The manager said that only one pharmacy in Guozhou Prefecture had this kind of pills, but Gu Yue thought it was unlikely. Then a large amount of poisonous grass should flow into various places. What's the point of selling it only in a mediocre place like Guozhou Prefecture?

There is no information related to Guozhou Prefecture in the original text. Guozhou is a place name that only appears in Gu Yue's world line.

With this addictive drug, what would those people use it for?

Of course, profit-making is one thing, but the per capita GDP of Northern Qin is not high, the Engel coefficient is large, and the people do not have spare money to buy such things, so not much wealth can be squeezed out.

It is best to use this kind of thing to control the government. It can not only make profits, but also gather power, which is very convenient for rebellion.

Gu Yue thought, if it were him, he would first try it out in counties far from the capital, and then gradually erode it towards the central government, so as to avoid being discovered right after the start. Selling it to other countries is also possible.

After telling Gu Xu about this analysis, Gu Xu said that he would use the power of Wumen to investigate the border of Northern Qin.

"I didn't expect that they were looking for someone to test this drug. This is a sensitive period." Gu Yue said.

"Why?" Wu Feng asked as he was rummaging through his suitcase.

"We need to select the right person, and prevent the pills from spreading and attracting attention. I think there should be someone watching near the pharmacy." Gu Yue said, "I think if I really get addicted to the pills, I'm afraid I'll be controlled the second time I go to ask for the pills."

"There are indeed spies around the medicine shop." Gu Xu said, "There are also people who know martial arts watching the yard."

"...There's someone watching in the yard? That's bad. We have to get things done quickly and leave here." Gu Yue stood up and said.

Everyone in the room was silent.

No matter how fast they hurried, without even taking a break in the afternoon, Gu Yue took Gu Xu Shisan to the Ya Market of Guozhou Prefecture.

The Ya Market in Guozhou was much larger than that in Yuning Prefecture. The Ya Market in Yuning Prefecture was just one street, and it was right next to the livestock market. The Ya Market in Guozhou Prefecture had two parallel streets and a large square, which was very lively with people coming and going.

This place is close to the west city wall, and you can see that section of the wall is not continuous. Outside, there is a half-built tall wall on a slightly higher ground. This is because Guozhou Prefecture is expanding outward.

The expansion of the city naturally gave rise to many industries. The land of the new city had to be sold, and houses and roads had to be built. At the same time, the number of vendors selling various things increased, and the tooth market became larger.

The process of selecting personnel this time was much smoother, and there was no situation like Shi San or Liu Lizhen. There were many talents in the Ya Market of Guozhou Prefecture, and there would be no shortage of them.

The steward brought out the qualified people as requested, and a total of eight people stood in a row, waiting for Gu Yue to come forward and choose.

The eight people were all dressed neatly and respectably. They all had similar temperaments and looked well-educated.

"Can you read and do accounting?" Gu Yue asked.

All eight of them agreed.

Gu Yue was in deep thought.

He had never worked as an HR, so he didn't know how to choose. He looked back at Gu Xu, who looked puzzled, and he heard him say, "How do you choose this person?"

"...You don't know how to choose?" Gu Xu raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you choose Shi San very well before?"

To be honest, he is now quite satisfied with Shi San, because this man has protected Gu Yue very well so far.

"Shi San is a special case. He is obviously different from the other two." Gu Yue whispered, "But these eight, I think they are all the same."

Gu Xu thought about it and realized that it was true.

But he had never personally recruited anyone. He had spent a lot of time with Wu Feng and the other six people, so he naturally selected the six most outstanding and close ones. But under the current circumstances, he certainly couldn't take his time to choose.

"Well... ask some questions and see how they answer?" Gu Xu gave him some advice.

That makes sense! Gu Yue hammered his palm.

The homework I did before the internship interview naturally came to mind. Common interview questions on the Internet include: future career plans, one's own strengths and weaknesses, the reason for leaving the last job, what experience I learned from my previous job, etc. Although technical positions like Gu Yue were not asked these questions but were required to practice on the computer, it is always possible to copy them.

You can't ask these people who have signed a death contract about career planning, it will only make you look stupid.

"Tell us one by one, what are your strengths?" Gu Yue asked, "Starting with you."

The person on the far left nervously answered: "The advantage of villains...is...being smart."

"Well, next one." Gu Yue said, paying close attention to the expressions of these people when they answered.

Some say it means being honest, some say it means being quick in calculating accounts, and some say it means being diligent. Two of them say the same thing.

"Then can you tell me what your shortcomings are one by one?" Gu Yue asked again.

Now all eight of them were a little confused. Some honestly said that they were stupid or slow in calculating, while others said that they had no flaws.

Someone gave a brilliant answer, and Gu Yue noticed him immediately.

The man smiled and said, "Whatever flaws I have, it's all up to the master to decide."

This gave him a similar feeling to those interview guides that say "answers that will make the interviewer's eyes light up."

He then asked: "You, introduce yourself."

The man was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then said, "I am Hegui, twenty-six years old this year. I can read accounts and use an abacus. I used to work in a grain store and a jewelry store for a few years. I have also read some of the Four Books and Five Classics, so I can teach children."

Can it be enlightened? Gu Yue thought about it. The pronunciation of this name is similar to that of the child named Chai Gui.

"What ghost word? Why did you fall into slavery?" Gu Yue asked, "Where are your parents?"

He Gui said, "My Lord, it is the dial of a sundial. I am the descendant of a criminal official from decades ago. Because my father was young, he was exiled to the northwest. I have been a slave since I was a child. My parents died of illness many years ago, and now I am the only one left."

"Who taught you to read and write? How are your parents doing?" Gu Yue asked. As the descendant of a criminal official, he didn't want to bring home a subordinate full of hatred. It's better to be positive and sunny.

"My mother was a maid in General Ye's mansion in the northwest. She knew a few words and could do accounting. My father also knew how to read, and they taught him. Later, he worked in a grain store for a few years and became more familiar with using an abacus to do accounting." He Gui replied, "General Ye is a very good person and never mistreats his servants."

"Then why didn't you stay at General Ye's house?" Gu Yue was curious.
