Chapter 241 Skillfully Using Conflict to Discover Talent 1
Su Nanxue spoke her mind aloud.
"They didn't beg you to apply, so why would they lie to you? If you don't want the interview, just leave. Do you think anyone will stop you?"
"How dare you talk like that, you brat! You deceived our feelings and wasted our time, can't you just let that happen?"
Su Nanxue sneered.
"Oh, who do you think you are? Wasting your time? I don't know how much your time is worth, but I do know that the tea you're drinking in this private club has a price tag. Waitress over there, can you tell me how much a cup of tea costs when you're in business?"
The trainees at the club had long been amused by the sight of young Su Nanxue single-handedly taking on a group of people. As soon as young Su Nanxue asked a question, someone immediately spoke up loudly.
"This is the most basic tea, 380 Hong Kong dollars a cup."
Su Nanxue then looked at the few people who were making the most noise and said with a smile.
"Did you hear that? The most basic tea costs HK$380 a cup. If you're really that tough, pay for this cup of tea first! Then I'll show you some respect!"
Su Nanxue said this because she was certain that these people were unwilling to pay for the tea.
This tea is indeed ordinary; it's the kind of tea that's placed on the table, and anyone who comes here for an interview can just pour themselves a drink.
The price of HK$380 is purely because it's sold at this club.
But HK$380 is equivalent to a week's wages for an average person on Hong Kong Island. How could these middle-aged women possibly be willing to pay that amount?
Sure enough, the aunties got angry as soon as they heard that the tea cost HK$380.
"This is robbery! Is this the kind of tea the Jade Emperor drinks in heaven? You dare ask for 380 Hong Kong dollars!"
"No one asked us for money. You brat, how dare you ask us for money? I'll tear your mouth apart."
As soon as one of the older women said that, the loudest women all rushed towards Su Nanxue.
Li Su, who was in the room, quickly went to check on Shen Wancheng, wanting to ask her if she should stop it to prevent an accident.
Shen Wancheng thought that Cora was still outside. Cora was a smart person and knew that Su Nanxue was doing something that would benefit Shen Wancheng. If Su Nanxue was really in danger, she would definitely help her.
Shen Wancheng told Li Su, "My bodyguard is outside; she can control the situation."
Li Su was finally relieved.
The commotion outside, however, did not prompt Cora to take any action.
Just as the older women rushed towards Su Nanxue, several other interviewees stepped forward.
Some people pulled the older woman who was rushing towards Su Nanxue, while others stood beside Su Nanxue to protect her.
Su Nanxue smiled gratefully at the person who came to her side.
Another young girl next to her spoke loudly.
"Everyone, I think what this young woman said makes a lot of sense. An interview is a mutual agreement between both parties. If you think this company is unreliable, then leave now."
“We don’t know if something’s wrong with the person being interviewed inside the room, since no one has come out despite all the commotion. Those who want to continue the interviews should wait until those who don’t want to be interviewed leave, then we can knock on the door and ask what’s going on inside. What do you all think?”
Those who weren't making a fuss nodded involuntarily.
The women who were being stopped even tried to incite a commotion.
"Why should we just leave like this? They have to come out and give us an explanation."
Su Nanxue immediately shouted back.
"What do you mean, 'explain'?! Did they eat or drink your food? Stop yelling and disrupting our interviews! We're here sincerely looking for jobs! If you keep yelling, they'll think I'm in cahoots with you guys, and I'll be so wronged! I'm waiting to interview for a job that pays HK$10,000 a month!"
"Don't you all agree? If I encountered such awful people, I wouldn't even bother with the interview today! If someone from the company inside comes out and says something like that, how wronged we, who are sincerely looking for work, will feel! Who can we complain to?"
"Even if we beat up these troublemakers, we'll still lose our good jobs!"
Su Nanxue went all out, rattling off a string of words that seemed impulsive, but in reality, every sentence was meant to provoke those who were waiting to see what would happen.
The reason these people don't take sides is that they want to do nothing and reap the benefits without lifting a finger.
If this company is truly a fraud, and these troublemakers are making things worse, let's just let it go; we won't lose anything.
If the company is genuinely conducting interviews, they will offer a monthly salary of HK$10,000, and these troublemakers will be able to continue attending interviews after they leave.
But now Su Nanxue's words reminded these people that if others came out and saw the chaotic scene, why should they continue to face them?
With a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan, it will definitely attract a steady stream of interviewees. If we don't interview today, we can just continue interviewing tomorrow.
As far as they knew, these middle-aged women didn't know how to write resumes, and they had registered their names before coming for interviews.
If the company is truly fed up with these interviewees today, even if they come back tomorrow or the day after, they probably won't be eligible for an interview.
Those who had initially remained calm and observed the situation could no longer sit still after understanding these things.
Everyone echoed Su Nanxue's words.
"If you think this company is a scam, then leave now and don't bother us."
"That's right. The fact that they didn't ask you for HK$380 a cup of tea shows how generous the company is. Let's go now."
"You should leave now and don't even think about continuing the interview. Although the company people are all in the room, the club people are still here. If someone asks later, they'll know which of you started the disturbance."
Those who had just joined in the commotion but now wanted to stay for the interview secretly glanced at the club's waiters standing at the edge of the lobby.
They happened to run into the gaze of the club's waiters.
It's as if it's saying, "Don't take any chances, we're all watching."
As the saying goes, many hands make light work. After those who had been observing the situation joined Su Nanxue's side, they naturally separated the people who had just started the disturbance.
These people looked left and right, feeling uncomfortable under the gaze of dozens of eyes, and left the club one by one with regret and reluctance.
Only then did Shen Wancheng finally get Li Su to open the door.
She and Li Su walked out of the room together.
