Chapter 243 Overseas Force Development
"Of course, if not, how can I do business?" Hou Xiaoge said with a mysterious smile.
"Xiansheng, as far as I know, isn't the coastline blocked by the Japanese?" Huang Jiasheng asked again in disbelief.
"It's blocked, but the world is so big, China is so big, we have a way, and we use planes." Hou Xiaoge revealed a little.
"Xiansheng, your company is really amazing. As far as I know, it is not easy to transport goods from America to China now.
The cost is high, and your company has such a channel, even if the cost is a bit high, you can still make a lot of money. "Zhang Juncai said in shock.
"Brother Zhang, we are all Qin people, I will just say whatever I want to say.
I have just come abroad on behalf of a company and I am in urgent need of a group of employees. I wonder if you can contact the people who are building the railway.
It would be great if there are brothers from our Qin Province. As long as they have good character, we will accept a lot of them." Hou Xiaoge said bluntly.
“Brother, we Northwesterners live inland, so very few of us come to America, although there have been quite a few in the past hundred years.
In recent years, not to mention other regions, there are more than 8,000 registered members of hometown associations in Los Angeles and San Francisco alone.
Most of these people are first-generation workers like me, and a small number are descendants of workers.
Although America seems to be much more advanced than China, with tall buildings everywhere, it has nothing to do with us.
All we did when we worked was pick up things that other people didn't want, and when we first arrived we were forced to build the railway.
We are not afraid of hardship and fatigue, but those black-hearted devils of Tamiang often do not treat us as human beings and often risk our lives to make money.
Alas! Life in America has been so hard these years.
If you, Xiao Han, can provide everyone with a job, as long as it can support the family and treat everyone as human beings, of course it is best to give it to your own people." Zhang Juncai said with a bitter face.
"Yes! New life. The people here are suffering so much.
Take me for example. I was lucky because I had the help of a car dealership from my hometown and I was able to get a chartered car in Chinatown.
But at the end of the month, after paying various expenses, he only earned twenty or thirty dollars, which was barely enough to support his family.
I don’t dare to rest for even a day. If I do, my family won’t be able to survive in less than a month.” Huang Jiasheng also answered.
"Brother Zhang, can you please tell me about the income of our clan members here?"
Although I know that Huang Jiasheng earns 20 to 30 US dollars a month, this cannot represent the majority, Hou Xiaoge asked.
"Don't even mention income. For someone like Huang, who has a stable job and can earn 20 or 30 yuan a month, that's good.
But most people can hardly earn 20 yuan a month, which is barely enough to feed themselves, let alone those who build railways and earn money from their relatives.
Like my shop, I rented it out with some money I saved from panning for gold, and I only make about 100 to 180 yuan a month." Zhang Juncai smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Brother, let me give you thirty to fifty dollars for ordinary workers, including food and lodging, and you can work on my farm to farm and herd cattle.
Those who have certain skills, knowledge, and are of local nationality can charge between 80 and 100 yuan.
We will invest in many factories and enterprises in the United States and recruit more of our own people." Hou Xiaoge said.
"Xiao Han, I'll go and farm for you. Food and lodging will be provided. Thirty to fifty yuan a month? If you are capable, I'll give you eighty to a hundred yuan." Zhang Juncai widened his eyes.
"Yes! Although my salary is lower than that of foreigners, if everyone works hard, it will increase in the future." Hou Xiaoge explained with a smile.
"Brother, my third and fourth sons are still idle, can they go to your place? My third son is strong and has good marksmanship, which will definitely be useful.
Although my fourth child is a girl, she can cook all the pasta from our hometown. What do you think about her cooking at your farm?" Zhang Juncai said with a blush on his face.
"Sure! Of course it's okay. We're all from the same village. As long as the kids work hard, it doesn't matter who we hire. No problem." Hou Xiaoge agreed readily.
Those who have families are definitely more stable than those who are alone. If they are unstable, we can just give them a good beating when the time comes, or drive them away if that doesn't work.
"Thank you so much, brother! If these two children don't behave, you can take care of them, or bring them back to me and I will take care of them." Zhang Juncai promised with a happy look on his face.
"By the way, Brother Zhang, I am also a member of a gang in the country." Hou Xiaoge then told the two about the Yanhuang Alliance and its purpose.
The two were not at all surprised that Hou Xiaoge was a gang member, because gangs were present in every corner of Chinese life.
Even the founding father and President Chang of the National Government came from gangs, so it's not surprising for a businessman to do so.
Besides, these days, if you want to make a living without an organization, you can’t survive.
“My two brothers, in addition to normal business personnel, I also need some tribesmen who are brave enough to fight and have good marksmanship.
These people can choose to be employed temporarily or join our Yanhuang Alliance.
Needless to say, temporary employees are free to come and go, and receive bonuses for completing tasks.
But if you join the Yanhuang League and become an outer disciple, you will receive a subsidy of fifty US dollars per month and enjoy certain welfare benefits in the league.
If they pass the tasks and the one-year assessment period, and are qualified, outer disciples can become disciples of the battle hall.
The minimum monthly salary for a formal disciple is US$100, and after working for five years, they will also receive housing benefits, and all other benefits are comparable to those of the US military." Hou Xiaoge took out a list and wrote as he spoke.
Looking at the treatment described by Hou Xiaoge, the two of them couldn't help but drool for a moment.
You have to know that the monthly salary of American soldiers at that time was only fifty US dollars, while the salary of peripheral disciples was the same as that of American soldiers.
"Xiao Han, my old bones are still useful. Can I join you, an outer disciple of the Yanhuang Alliance?" Zhang Juncai asked with a smile.
"Brother Zhang, you are already over 40, and you are old enough to enjoy your grandchildren. You should leave the fighting to the young people!
Besides, joining the outer sect doesn’t mean you can earn fifty yuan a month just by sitting there.
There are also ten days of mandatory tasks every month. The Yanhuang League is not a charity. If it was free, it would have gone bankrupt long ago. "Hou Xiaoge knew this problem when he wrote the salary, so he explained it directly.
The specific situations in China and abroad are different. In China, a peripheral disciple only has shopping benefits and clothing benefits.
Normally, outer disciples do not receive any salary, only rewards from missions. They usually do their own things, and will be given priority for employment if there is work in the Yanhuang Alliance.
Moreover, the country has an innate foundation for recruiting people. As long as they are well fed, a large number of people will be willing to work hard. There are many disciples in the battle hall, so there is no need for the peripheral disciples to risk their lives. At most, they can go out to stand guard or keep watch.
But this situation is obviously not suitable in America. Hou Xiaoge is unfamiliar with the place and it is difficult for him to recruit disciples without his innate advantages.
So we can only mobilize and persuade them with money.
Attract some people to work for you first, and then bring some disciples over from China, so that you can gradually form a team.
"hey-hey!"
"I thought you would get money if you joined a gang! That's great." Zhang Juncai scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
Hou Xiaoge looked at the other person and smiled without saying anything.
"Brother, you are out here just for money. We just met, and I don't know your strength.
In this way, after you get your residence permit and the farm, I will personally go to recruit people for you.
How about I send my third child to your guard hall then?
As for your safety in the next few days, I will contact a few fellow villagers who specialize in this business tonight, and you can temporarily hire them. "Zhang Juncai saw that Hou Xiaoge had a decent appearance and did not seem like a person who would talk nonsense, so he also said it clearly.
He also hoped that what Hou Xiaoge said was true. After all, he had not been home for decades, and he wanted Hou Xiaoge to help him go back and take a look.
"Sure, brother. The salary is two dollars per person per day, including food and lodging. If something really goes wrong, there will be a reward." Hou Xiaoge said, holding up two fingers.
"it is good!"
This amount of money was already quite a lot, and Zhang Juncai was very happy.
After saying this, they chatted for another hour. Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Hou Xiaoge bowed and said goodbye.
"Brother, once we find the person, we will meet you at a nearby hotel tomorrow morning." Zhang Juncai said as he walked him out.
"Row!"
"Xiansheng, I have a cousin who was busy repairing the railway some time ago. He is free now. Can I introduce him to join your Yanhuang League?
Don't worry, my cousin is an honest man with good conduct. I will vouch for him."
When Huang Jiasheng sent Hou Xiaoge to the Fulin Hotel, he was a little tempted when he saw Hou Xiaoge directly pay five dollars to choose a deluxe room.
“Brother Jiasheng, even though we have known each other for a short time, I still admire your character.
Well, bring your cousin to me tomorrow. If I am satisfied, he will become an outer disciple and I will give him a month's subsidy on the spot. "Hou Xiaoge looked at Huang Jiasheng, who was blushing and speaking humbly to him, and nodded in agreement.
"Thank you, freshman." Huang Jiasheng took one dollar for half a day's car fare, bowed, and walked out of the room.
After Huang Jiasheng left, Hou Xiaoge returned to the space and quickly changed his appearance, then chased after Huang Jiasheng under the dim street lights.
When he first arrived, Hou Xiaoge didn't trust anyone, so he was naturally cautious when recruiting disciples.
Huang Jiasheng first returned the car to the dealership, then bought two pounds of pork head and a small plate of peanuts from a nearby braised meat stall and took them home.
"Mr. Lou, you're back! Why did you buy pork head?" The wooden door of a brick courtyard opened, and a woman in her early thirties opened the door and welcomed Huang Jiasheng in while speaking.
"I'm happy today! I found a job for Ah Fa, and the salary is very high." Huang Jiasheng said happily.
"Really? That's great." Huang Jiasheng's wife Ren Ying looked delighted.
"Ah Sheng is back!"
"Ah Sheng, business is good today. Did you buy some meat?"
"What good news is there, Ah Sheng?"
The couple spoke a little loudly, and after they entered the yard, their neighbors who lived with them came out to greet them.
Huang Jiasheng also greeted everyone along the way and took his wife back to their two rooms.
"The boss is back!"
"Dad!"
"Dad, I smell meat."
The five children and a man in his twenties in the room asked in unison.
"There's going to be something good tonight, something delicious. Grandma Lou has cut up all the pig's head." Huang Jiasheng said loudly with a smile.
