Now that the year was over, Ye Fan was still alone. Next, it was going to be the Lantern Festival. Could it be that he was still alone?
"Perhaps, I should recruit a few servants and maids. At least when I return home, I should have some popularity.”
Now that Ye Fan had two stores and had reached a seed sales cooperation with Old Yang, he basically didn't have to worry about money. Even if he was a hands-off shopkeeper, he could live his life without worry.
Since that was the case, why was he still so thrifty?
Therefore, he could totally find a few pretty maids tomorrow, hire a few servants to guard the house, and hire a butler!
The next morning, Ye Fan got up early and wrote a flyer.
The Ye Residence was recruiting five servants, two maids, and a housekeeper. The salary was to be negotiated, but not less than two silver coins per month, and the housekeeper not less than five silver coins per month. [Location: No. 14, Seventh Street, Pingkang Square]
After writing, Ye Fan went to the market to find a few people who could write and help him copy them in batches.
Logically speaking, many large families should have a small door when recruiting servants. This small door was like a dog hole, used for servants who entered the house for the first time.
However, the House of Ye didn't.
If you do this, others will complain in their hearts.
These servants would work for you wholeheartedly if you gave them a little benefit.
To Ye Fan, it was just not letting them go through the dog hole. However, to them, this was simply a heavenly gift.
It seemed that Ye Fan had suffered a loss, but in fact, Ye Fan had gained the hearts of the people, while he had not lost anything.
This way, the effect was much better than letting the servants crawl through the dog hole.
Unfortunately, people nowadays liked to follow the old ways. If Ye Fan was born in this era, he might be the same.
As for the position of butler, it was temporarily vacant because there was really no suitable candidate.
Seeing that Ye Fan had decided on the candidates, the remaining people also dispersed, leaving only seven people behind.
"To put it simply, you don't have to go through the dog hole to enter this door. I'll just talk about the treatment and requirements. The requirements were very simple. The servants were to guard the house and clean the house when they had nothing to do.”
"Servant, taking care of my meals and daily life is easy to understand.”
"Understood!"
The seven of them nodded in unison.
"One last thing. If you do well, sign the contract. It will last for at least five years. If you want to terminate the contract during this period, you must provide a legitimate reason and get my approval before you can terminate the contract.”
These servants and maids naturally wouldn't have any objections. Instead, they would feel smug, thinking that they were lucky to have found a good master.
They were indeed lucky to have met Ye Fan, a good master who went against feudal ideas.
But then again, if they did not do well, Ye Fan would definitely not feel sorry for them.
He was not in a welfare institute. He had already given them relatively loose conditions, so he had to pay the labor force that was equivalent to this treatment.
If he wanted to enjoy the benefits but did not want to work, then Ye Fan would fire him without hesitation.
" Alright, follow me into the residence now. Get familiar with the environment at home first, and then we'll allocate the accommodation…"
"Brother Ye!"
At this moment, a call suddenly came from nearby.
Ye Fan looked up and realized that it was actually Zhangsun Wugou walking over slowly.
"So it's Wugou."
Ye Fan smiled lightly and said in a friendly manner,"Why did you think of coming to my place?”
"Brother Ye, I heard that you're looking for a maid and specially sent a little girl over.”
As he spoke, Zhangsun Wugou pushed a timid little girl behind him in front of Ye Fan.
The little girl looked no more than thirteen or fourteen years old. She had a childlike face, but her body was dirty and her clothes were torn. She looked like a beggar.
Ye Fan asked worriedly.
"No, I saw this little girl at the market. She said that she wanted to sell herself. I saw that she was pitiful, so I brought her here.”
Zhangsun Wugou was kind-hearted and very emotional. When she saw the pitiful appearance of the little girl, her heart ached so much that tears fell. She could not help but look at Ye Fan and beg,"Brother Ye, just take her in. I already have Xiao Huan, and uncle doesn't allow me to take in any maid of unknown origin…"
After hearing Zhangsun Wugou's words, Ye Fan nodded.
Ye Fan could quite understand this. After all, it was the residence of an important official in the court. The conditions for recruiting servants and maids must be very strict.
However, Ye Fan did not want to accept this little girl.
His Ye Residence was not a shelter. This little girl was not even as tall as a carrying pole when she stood up. She probably could not do a job like fetching water.
However, he saw Zhangsun Wugou sobbing and touching the little girl's face lovingly as she looked at him.
Her big, watery eyes were filled with anticipation.
Ye Fan did not want to destroy the beauty in Zhangsun Wugou's heart, so he weighed it for a moment and nodded."Alright, in that case, I'll accept it.”
In any case, girls in this era were more mature. At the age of 13 or 14, they should be able to take charge of their own affairs. At the very least, they should be able to do idle work such as tidying up the house.
Immediately after, Ye Fan explained the rules to the little girl alone.
However, after hearing Ye Fan's words, the little girl immediately said," Young Master, I, I don't want Young Master. I'm willing to serve Young Master for the rest of my life. I only hope that Young Master can save my grandmother…"
