Chapter 308: Chapter 308: ng Liangdong Returns and Panpan Visits (1)_1 Chapter 308: Chapter 308: ng Liangdong Returns and Panpan Visits (1)_1 This was an old man whose hair had already turned gray.
Lin Yuan asked his age, which turned out to be just over forty.
However, his face was so full of worry, and his slightly hunched back made him look as if he were sixty at first glance.
Lin Yuan thought maybe the old man had so difficulties at ho and had co out to work out of necessity, so she said nothing and let him join in making the dough as well.
What she did not expect was that the old man would bring her an unexpected surprise.
Despite his age, he had a pair of hands that were exceptionally nimble.
Before others could even shape the rough form, he had already crafted an exquisitely lifelike little goat.
The little goat was incredibly cute, especially the two small whiskers by its mouth, which were thin and slightly curved, making you want to reach out and touch them as soon as you saw them.
Lin Yuan couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
The old man managed a faint smile with a sowhat deep voice, “My elder daughter is born in the year of the goat.”
Lin Yuan thought that was just his way of speaking and didn’t take it to heart.
Interested in seeing more of the old man’s skills, she asked him to make another one.
The old man said nothing, nodded, took a piece of white dough from the basin, and quickly fashioned another figurine, this ti a little monkey with a long tail.
Not only did he sculpt the monkey, but he also made a thin stick and wrapped the monkey’s tail around it, creating the impression that the little monkey was swinging on a tree branch.
“My younger daughter is just like this monkey, very clever,” said the old man, with a noticeably brighter voice.
Lin Yuan admired the old man’s ingenious creativity and repeatedly nodded, imdiately deciding to keep him on.
While the old man had crafted two small animals, the others had only managed one.
Lin Yuan quietly observed around the table and eliminated a few won who were taking shortcuts.
What a joke, she wanted the twelve zodiac animals, not a thin stick, which they dared to call a snake.
What kind of snake was that, a stick-straight line without any curve?
However, among those who made snakes, there was one that was quite accurate.
Not only was its body coiled, but its head was also wide open with a mouth showing two sharp fangs.
Even though the snake lacked the cuteness she was looking for, it was realistically shaped.
Therefore, Lin Yuan decided to keep this woman as well.
Additionally, she picked out two won whose work was almost as good.
One younger woman had made a small piglet, and an older one had made a large tiger.
Although the shapes were a bit off, they were cute enough.
In the front hall, Shopkeeper Zhou had also selected two appropriate young workers.
Lin Yuan gathered these people together, explained Rice Flower Fragrance’s rules and the salaries, and, after they had no objections, signed a one-year employnt contract and a confidentiality agreent with them.
Actually, there was no need for a confidentiality agreent, but ever since the tofu shop, Shopkeeper Zhou had proposed this.
After all, many of the items Lin Yuan made were not found in other shops.
If soone carelessly leaked them, wouldn’t that be giving away advantages to others?
Moreover, having a confidentiality agreent serves to be cautious.
With everyone signing it, they would at least have so concerns in mind and not talk recklessly once they left.
Lin Yuan was very satisfied with the two young workers Shopkeeper Zhou had chosen.
The tall one was nad Da Niu, and as his na suggested, he had a robust build, though he was quite shrewd.
The shorter one was nad Liang Zi, who seed even more astute than Da Niu, and was exceedingly sweet-talker.
Lin Yuan had only spoken a few words with him, but he had already made her laugh several tis.
