“He wrongly accused me of starting the fight claimin ghe hadn’t done anything and was innocently eating wontons. Saying that I was just picking on him and ended up beating him. He intended to sue me at the County Government Office, charging me with a crime and making me pay compensation to settle the matter,”

“Hearing this I claimed my innocence, saying that I only took action because he was harassing others. But the County Government then questioned the old man who owned the wonton stall and his granddaughter. Surprisingly, they both denied the harassment, asserting that it was just me who was causing trouble at the wonton stall,”

“In the end, I was beaten up and fined ten taels of silver. We three brothers pooled together all the money we had and even had to sell the house our parents left us in our hometown and borrow some silver to repay this debt.” “When the manager of the dock learned about this incident, he fired us three brothers and forbade us from working there. We then went around everywhere to find work, but the news about this incident spread throughout our community and most people were reluctant to hire us. Even if we got hired, the wages were extremely low, which left us with no choice but to look elsewhere.” “It was hard to find work along the way, and as we were outsiders, some people always wanted to take advantage of us. So, all three of us brothers decided that if we couldn’t make an honest living and leading a good life, we might as well not be so virtuous. We just did work for whoever paid us, no matter whether it was good or bad,”

“We three brothers are tall and burly, and we look fierce. After spending a lot of time in casinos and wineries, people started to hire us. Scaring some families here, demanding money from another there. But we never really hurt anyone. If we really had to break someone’s leg or something, we wouldn’t dare to do it. We just disturbed other people’s businesses,”

“Working in this field we’ve offended a lot of people. If we stay in one town for too long, it becomes difficult to continue. So, we move to the next town and so on. We just arrived here not long ago…”

Our first venture here was literally like kicking an iron plate.

And it was as thick as a wall.

“After that experience last time, we kept Manager Zhuang’s words in mind and decided to give up such work, hoping we could just find some honest work and make some money with hard labor,”

“But there are neither docks nor warehouses in the vicinity of this town. Most of them are just farms. Even if they need laborers, it’s usually only during the harvest season. As it’s not yet the harvest season, we’ve had to rely on the money we saved earlier…”

Which is to say, these few people are now homeless and don’t have a regular income.

Zhuang Qingning pursed her lips and took another look at the three brothers. Previously, she felt that they had completed the “encouraging people to be good” task very quickly, and she received a small reward as a result. At that time, Zhuang Qingning thought that these three people must be naturally not that bad since they turned over a new leaf so quickly. She did not expect that they had gone through so much in the past.

With this in mind, there’s still room for further transformation.

Thinking of Hu Da, who stood in her way earlier and was desperate to explain, Zhuang Qingning suddenly felt a soft spot in her heart, and had an idea to help them.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for triggering the follow-up task of the ‘encouraging people to do good’ mission – accompanying Buddha to the West. As long as the host completes the task of helping the three Hu Brothers find suitable jobs and settle down, they will receive a generous reward.]

Uh…

She understood the situation. Helping these people find jobs is something she can do. There should be no problem.

But has the system’s name-calling become so wild now?

The name sounds less like helping people and more like she’s going to chop

someone.

[The system is automatically set up, just listen to it roughly, it’s fine as long as the meaning is more or less the same.]

This… the meanings are quite a distance apart, really?

[Cough cough, don’t mind the details…]

Okay then, no need to dwell on the details.

Anyway, there are rewards for completing the tasks. As for the specifics of the tasks, it doesn’t really matter.

But, how to find work for the three Hu brothers…

At present, the hot and sour noodle shop and tofu shop in the town do not need staff. The Ruyi Pavilion probably doesn’t need more employees either. My workshop at home mostly employees young married women and girls, and it’s not suitable for these tall and burly men to go there.

Zhuang Qingning brainstormed for a while, but didn’t come up with a suitable place to settle these three men.

“Where do you live normally? Where should I find you if I need to in the future?” Zhuang Qingning asked.

“In the east end of the town, go south along the outermost road. There’s a house there with a soapberry tree in front.” Hu Da answered honestly.

“If Manager Zhuang has instructions, please no need to visit us in person…” The house at the outermost area of the town is cheap, but it’s also really run­down.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

It’s not suitable for someone like Zhuang Qingning to go to such a place.

Also, it’s quite embarrassing for the Hu’s brothers to let Zhuang Qingning see their shabby condition.

“It’s indeed something, but I haven’t arranged it yet. I’ll find you when it’s ready.” Zhuang Qingning thought for a while, took the money pouch from her waist and weighed the copper coins in it, then threw it to Hu Da.

Hu Da swiftly caught the pouch with a surprised look on his face, “Manager Zhuang, this is…”

“It’s a deposit for the job, take it first. Once the job is done, there’s more. Zhuang Qingning replied.

“Oh, I thought what was happening. Whatever Manager Zhuang needs, just tell us.” Hu Da then returned the money pouch, “No need to pay us this money.

“Take it if I tell you to.” Zhuang Qingning retorted, “If you don’t take it, I really can’t trust you guys to do this job.”

Hu Da held the money pouch for a while before nodding his head, “Alright, since Manager Zhuang said so, I’ll keep this money first. Whenever Manager Zhuang needs us to do something, just let the three of us know.” “Good, you guys go first and wait for my call when everything’s ready,” Zhuang Qingning said.

“Okay.” Hu Da nodded his head eagerly, “Then we won’t disturb Manager Zhuang anymore. We need to rush to return the money we helped that family get back.”

“Wait, we can catch up with Manager Zhuang tomorrow.

“I guess I won’t be around these few days. A new shop just opened in the county town and I have to deliver supplies there, it’s really busy…”

Zhuang Qingning leaned her head, “Let’s wait till the 15th.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Alright.” Hu Da agreed and led the obsequious Hu Er and Hu San, who had their faces full of flattery towards Zhuang Qingning, to quickly return the money they had reclaimed.

Zhuang Qingning watched as the three brothers left cheerfully and suddenly felt a great sense of accomplishment at having done a good deed.

There’s no helping it, model young people are just like that.

Only that…

A model young woman like her has to walk home on foot now.

Zhuang Qingning sighed as she watched people coming and going on the street, but there were no bullock carts to ride. Eventually, she had no choice but to walk home.
