Chapter 619: 614 Job Fair at Sky Bridge
Gu Chen had no idea that he was depicted as such a formidable figure in Tangtang’s essay.
He carefully read Tangtang’s entire essay.
"My dad is the richest man in Chuan City.
Every day, he gets up at eight in the morning and promptly makes breakfast for me, mom, and six bodyguards who look like they’ve walked straight out of a movie.
My dad makes a lot of money every day, but he remains humble and unassuming.
Mom says that dad earns money so he can help everyone in Chuan City build a better home together.
My dad is a superhero, he punishes evil and promotes good, fighting for justice..."
Looking at the essay that Tangtang had written,
Gu Chen didn’t know what to say for a moment.
He felt very strange and awkward.
Logically speaking, it’s not a big deal to use some exaggerated adjectives and a bit of excessive praise in an essay.
But as Gu Chen read what Tangtang had written, he felt like he was an ancient emperor who was extremely patriotic and charitable, often doing good in Chuan City.
He was the one always making meals for the family, morning and night, always working hard without complaint.
This essay practically portrayed him as a combination of a superhero, a rich tycoon, and a family man!
"Tangtang, who taught you to write descriptions like this?" Gu Chen asked.
"I saw it in the newspapers, someone used ’earth-shattering’ to describe emotions, so I borrowed that a little," she replied.
Hearing Tangtang use so many random idioms, Gu Chen thought it was quite amusing.
"Alright, but I suggest you add at the end of your essay, ’The above content is purely fictional, any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.’
After Gu Chen finished speaking, Ji Pianran suddenly laughed out loud from the side.
"Hahaha, that’s really funny, I think what Tangtang wrote isn’t wrong at all," she said.
Although Ji Pianran was laughing, she was also comforting Tangtang.
She said to Tangtang, "Even though daddy isn’t the richest man now, he will become the richest one sooner or later, right?"
Tangtang nodded her head quickly, "Right, right, right, daddy will eventually be the richest man, daddy is a superhero, the smartest."
She didn’t skimp on her praises, as if in her world, Gu Chen was everything.
Seeing Tangtang’s earnest expression, Gu Chen couldn’t continue laughing.
Instead, he looked seriously at Broken Brow and the other five.
Then he said to the six of them, "Tomorrow the bar is going to open, so you guys need to come over in the afternoon."
Broken Brow and the others seemed visibly taken aback when they heard this.
They seemed not to have expected things to start so soon.
Ji Pianran was also quite surprised and hastily asked, "Are we starting? What time tomorrow night? I can come help you, too."
"No need, we’re just doing a trial run tomorrow; we don’t know how it will go yet, just worried it might be a bit of a flop, which would be troublesome. If it’s lively, well, that’s no problem, but if it’s a flop, then that might be the end."
The bar didn’t fear much else, but a lack of patrons was indeed a serious issue.
"What should we do then? Shall I get some bar-goers to spice things up?" she asked Gu Chen.
Gu Chen laughed upon hearing this; he hadn’t expected Ji Pianran to be quite clever.
What Gu Chen saw as a mood-creating group, Ji Pianran referred to as bar-goers.
"No need, I’ve already arranged it. Anyway, we’ll see how it goes tomorrow night," he said.
What they could think of, Gu Chen had already considered.
However, he guessed that there wouldn’t be too few people in the bar the next night.
"So we’ll head over at two o’clock tomorrow afternoon?" Smelly Tinker asked from the side.
"You don’t need to come that early, arriving a bit after five o’clock will be fine."
"But make sure you’ve eaten when you come, as the bar doesn’t have a place to eat for now."
After giving his instructions, they all nodded in acknowledgment.
Soon, the incident was behind them, and that evening Gu Chen asked Tang Tang to rewrite the essay.
Tang Tang, following her own descriptive style, wrote another one for Gu Chen.
If Gu Chen hadn’t seen Tang Tang write it with his own eyes, he would have thought she simply copied it from the previous one.
Because from beginning to end, the style was almost identical, and it actually made for an interesting read.
After the night passed, in the morning, Gu Chen prepared breakfast exactly as described in Tang Tang’s essay and hastily departed.
At eight in the morning, Gu Chen started heading towards the overpass.
At this time, some people might still be in bed.
But the overpass area was already on the verge of becoming extremely crowded.
In Chuan City, there were still many people struggling to find jobs.
Ironically, a decade later, it would become increasingly difficult to find manual laborers in the market.
Yet at present, manual laborers were the most abundant in the job market.
Especially those skilled in various technical tasks—these labor professions had no systematic education in anything, to be precise, they just knew how to use the tools.
After Gu Chen drove there, a crowd quickly surrounded him.
"Boss, need people, boss?"
"Boss, take a look, I can do bricklaying, welding, anything, boss."
"Brick moving, no need to provide meals, boss."
"Boss, need workers, boss? What kind of work, boss?"
Upon seeing Gu Chen, everyone was very friendly, each calling him ’boss’ warmly.
They didn’t care about Gu Chen’s age; they could tell from the car he drove that Gu Chen was definitely a rich man.
In their eyes, there was only the work that Gu Chen could offer.
Gu Chen gave them a look and then helplessly shook his head.
He really didn’t lack such people; Ping’an Real Estate already had a large number of laborers.
He passed through the crowd and then took a look at the overpass area.
Because Gu Chen was dressed appropriately, there were always people asking him for work as he walked by.
However, Gu Chen refused them all with a wave of his hand.
It wasn’t that he looked down on these people; rather, the issue of appearance was indeed very important.
Before long, Gu Chen noticed a few figures.
Four young people, two men and two women, were squatting under an old tree at that time.
They seemed to look around with a somewhat bewildered feeling.
They didn’t seem to understand why there were so many people here.
In the face of the laborers there, they didn’t seem to have such a strong desire to look for work.
Gu Chen glanced at the sign next to them.
It read: "Manual labor, hourly work, tutoring, English, agriculture, etc."
Some required intellectual work, and some needed physical labor.
Simply put, they were looking for a wide variety of jobs.
At that moment, a well-experienced old hand squatted down next to them.
He looked at their sign and said, "You guys just won’t do.
Look at you, all skinny—what boss would hire you? They’d think you don’t have strength.
Dressed up so clean and tidy, better just go back to school."
