Chapter 756 There will be changes

Ruth looks very rude, but he is a person with a rough and thin person.

His mind looks very different from himself.

If you make a judgment on him based on his appearance, then this is a mistake.

Although he is a crazy believer, he understands the principles of being a human being.

Jenny wanted to explore some issues about the concession, which was completely unnecessary in Ruth's opinion.

They have no connection with the concession, so there is no reason to explore this issue.

Moreover, there is certain that there are secrets in the concession. If they know too much, it may not be a good thing.

However, Ruth knew that she could not persuade Jenny.

Because based on his understanding of Jenny, he knew very well that Jenny was actually very curious.

It seems that every girl has this kind of curiosity.

So, there is no way to deal with this.

In this way, Ruth could only watch Jenny pull a laborer walking by her and then start asking him.

"Please wait a moment, can I ask some questions? This won't delay you for how long."

Jenny asked after calling the man.

The man who was called out by Jenny was probably in his fifties and was not very young anymore.

However, he looks pretty good.

This may be related to the genetic humans of Europeans.

They often look very strong at this age.

This is obviously different from that of the Orientals.

In the East, in such an era, people in their fifties have already looked very old.

In terms of physical fitness, Orientals really have no way to compare with Europeans.

The man looked at Jenny and glanced at her. When he guessed that Jenny might have walked out of the concession office tent, his expression obviously relaxed, and his original impatience disappeared.

You know, when doing things in the concession, they have to work very hard to make money.

Things like being lazy must not happen.

Otherwise, they would have lost their work here.

Calling him like Jenny would have a great impact on his work.

If it weren't for speculation that Jenny might have something to do with the concession, then he wouldn't have given Jenny any good looks.

Jennifer didn't know these things, she looked at the other party seriously and asked, "You are residents near Marseille, are you?"

The man nodded. He didn't know why the girl called him, but he still answered Jenny's question patiently.

"Yes, I'm a resident of Marseille."

Jenny continued to ask, "But why did you come here to work? I know that there is also a large port in Marseille. Isn't it easier to work there than to work here? And there will be a lot of work in Marseille Port, right?"

Jenny was very strange about this.

The man looked at Jenny and replied: "There is a good job in Marseille Harbor, but the job here makes more money. Moreover, the work here will not be deducted from wages, and the settlement is settled a day will not be delayed, so we are willing to come here to find a job. The most important thing is that after paying the wages in the concession, we can buy half the cheaper food and side food than the market to take home, which is something that cannot be owned by working in Marseille Harbor."

Jenny was a little confused, she only understood half of the words.

"Why is the food here half cheaper than Marseille?" Jenny was very puzzled by this question, but now she understands why the other party came here to work.

After all, the other party said it very clearly that they earn more money from working here than in Marseille, and they don’t have to be deducted.

Jenny, who has lived in the European continent for more than ten years and has been to many countries, is quite clear about these things.

This is not only true in Port Marseille, but also in other parts of Europe.

People need to have an introducer when looking for a job.

Or, join a local guild.

This guild and guilds that are not later generations are suitable for a gang organization similar to the underworld, but they are named as the guild.

Speaking of guilds, they actually appeared as early as the Roman era.

But after a slight evolution, it finally became an organization that gathered gangsters and gangsters.

If you want to find a job, it is definitely impossible to bypass such an organization.

Therefore, a large part of the daily wages will be squeezed out by the other party.

This is not the worst. The most uncomfortable thing is that after you work hard for a day, you find that the employer has not paid the wages as agreed. This is the most annoying thing.

Often at this time, the guild will come forward to help everyone get their wages.

If the guild really does this, it will be considered a good thing.

However, things often don't develop like this.

After the guild comes forward, they will argue with their employers in a pretentious manner, but in the end they will still favor the employers and bully the workers who do things.

At that time, if they don’t pay for their wages, they will be scolded and beaten by the guild.

Such things happen frequently on the European continent, and people have become accustomed to and accepted such rules.

Now, workers are needed in the concession, and there is no guild, so the wages are enough.

In this way, those who are strong and willing to do things are certainly willing to come here to work.

At the same time, the price of goods in the Concession is lower than half of the market price, because the Concession attracts more workers to do things and is an agreement with the French government.

This agreement states that the goods in the concession are only supplied to the workers working in the concession.

Anyone who is not doing things in the concession will not be able to enjoy such a discount.

After all, the French government has to consider this matter, and if it is not under control, it will have an impact on business.

The concession is also very clear about this issue.

However, if it is only for a small number of people, the French government will not have much opinion.

In this way, those who came to work in the concession enjoyed the benefits of this small group of people and gained benefits.

Nowadays, prices in Europe are soaring, especially the prices of food are always high.

Grain merchants from all over the country are also raising prices and unwilling to lower prices, so people can only buy high-priced grain.

After all, people always have to eat, and if they don’t eat, they can’t survive.

No one is born to live without wanting to live.

Therefore, no matter how difficult life is, people always have to live.

Jenny just knew something roughly, but she couldn't know too clearly about the complicated situation behind it.

After hearing this, the other party smiled: "Because we work in the concession, the price of the concession will have a great discount for people like us. You should know that not everyone can enjoy this discount. Only those who work in the concession can enjoy it. If they do not work in the concession, then they will not be able to enjoy this discount."

When Jenny mentioned this question, the man's face suddenly shone with a brilliant look, making him think radiant, as if the feeling of fatigue was swept away.

"There are a certain number of people in the concession every day, and those who perform poorly on the first day will be recorded and will not be able to use them again the next day. Therefore, everyone works very seriously here, for fear of losing this good opportunity. After all, it is fair to give money here, and we can also enjoy the opportunity to buy cheap food, which is very rare."

The middle-aged man tells the truth, and there is nothing to hide in these things.

Jenny listened carefully to the man's story and felt a little understanding in her heart.

Probably, she guessed the purpose of the Concession doing this and some of the benefits that might be achieved from it.

First of all, the concession can attract a large amount of manpower to come here to find a job, thus solving their employment problems.

Moreover, affordable food and fair wages have not been deducted, which also makes the workers who come here to work without complaints.

Therefore, this approach can keep everyone unwilling to leave.

However, there are inevitably some people who are taking advantage of the situation. They are passive and lazy when working, otherwise they will be lazy.

For such a guy, the concession must be clear about it and it is impossible to use it again.

This is also the reason why the employment system in the concession is very strict.

The concession welcomes hardworking and honest people, those cheating guys who are cheating, will not use them in the concession.

Moreover, I was afraid that their mouse poop would ruin such a good environment.

This is what the man said, the reason why he couldn't use it the next day if he didn't perform well.

Cleaning up these people who don’t work hard, in addition to killing the chicken to warn the monkey, also let those honest people take some scruples after seeing it, making them work harder.

It can be said that it is a win-win situation.

Therefore, Coke is not done.

It has to be said that the administrative staff in the concession have put a lot of effort into the construction and employment of the concession.

"I think you look very good, completely different from others. And it seems that all the people working in the concession are very energetic. What's going on?"

Jenny asked another question that made her curious.

When asked this question, the man's face became more proud.

In addition to showing pride, Jenny even saw confidence and her longing for future life on his face.

This is completely different from the numbness, despair and indifference of the French outside the concession on the faces of the future.

Jenny was very strange. Why did people change like this after they had a relationship with the people of the Song Empire? (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!)
