Chapter 223: Chapter 223: One Little Condition
"Uncle, I’m not kidding!"
Shen Nian said with a smile, looking at Miao Changquan.
"You’re not kidding? Then what did you mean just now?"
"Well, our farm isn’t up and running yet, but I wanted to ask... Uncle, would you be interested in working at our family’s farm?"
’Shen Nian had already thought this through. A farm this big couldn’t possibly be run by just the few of them in the Shen family. They would definitely need to recruit some talent.’
Now that she had run into Miao Changquan, Shen Nian wasn’t about to let this potential talent get away.
"Your family’s farm? Xiao Nian, are you asking me to come help out and grow vegetables on your farm?"
As he spoke, Miao Changquan actually considered it. ’After all, I’m just farming at home right now. There’s no reason I can’t go work at the Shen family’s farm.’
’And I could even help the Shen family.’
"Uncle, I’m not planning to have you just grow vegetables for us!"
’Her uncle was someone she planned to groom for a senior management position. How could she just have him grow vegetables? What a waste!’
"Not grow vegetables? Then what would I do?"
’With this limp of mine, what else could I do besides grow vegetables?’
"Uncle, I remember seeing you buy goods from the county town to resell when I was little. You earned quite a bit of money at such a young age. Talent like yours can’t be wasted! That’s why I want you to manage sales for our farm."
"Sales?"
Miao Changquan’s eyes lit up again. ’How does my niece know me so well? The very thing she mentioned is what I love doing most!’
It was just that he had applied for sales jobs before, but as soon as they saw his limp, they would adamantly refuse to hire him.
’They said that sales was the face of a company, so how could they let a cripple do it!’
The Shen family’s farm hadn’t even started yet, but they surely wanted it to be a success. He knew his niece meant well, but he couldn’t drag them down for his own selfish reasons.
"Xiao Nian, I can’t do this job."
"Can’t do it? Uncle, you have the skills, so how could you not be able to? Are you worried about something? Is it because of your leg injury?"
Hearing Miao Changquan’s hesitation, Shen Nian immediately guessed the source of his worries—which was also the source of his hard life these past few years.
"Xiao Nian, I know you mean well, but how can a cripple work in sales?"
"Why not? Uncle, I believe in your abilities!"
"But I..."
"Uncle, I know what you’re worried about. But what if I told you I can heal your leg?"
Shen Nian said as she looked at Miao Changquan. Previously, she might not have been so confident. But she had managed to cure Miao Dagui of a very serious illness, so she felt confident about Miao Changquan’s leg injury, too.
’That treasure trove of knowledge her master had left her... she still hadn’t gotten through all of it! Even if Miao Changquan’s leg injury was too severe for her to treat right now, she was sure she could handle it after she absorbed all of her master’s teachings!’
"What? Xiao Nian, you’re not kidding, are you?"
Miao Changquan’s eyes widened as he stared at Shen Nian. It wasn’t that he hadn’t sought treatment for his leg. He had seen both traditional Chinese and Western doctors, but none of them could do anything.
They couldn’t even alleviate it, let alone cure it.
But now, Shen Nian was actually saying she had a way. How could he not be astonished?
"Of course I’m not kidding! Uncle, you haven’t forgotten, have you? Today, I even cured Grandpa’s serious illness!"
’That’s right! How could I have forgotten something so important!’
Miao Changquan’s eyes instantly lit up, and his gaze on Shen Nian was filled with excitement.
’Maybe my niece really does have a way. Maybe I really can stand on this leg again!’
"But, Uncle, I have one small condition!"
