Chapter 34 "Interview"
When the housekeeper took Andy and Finn to the castle garden, there was no one there except a few gardeners arranging flowers and plants.
——Obviously, Brand was in the castle garden or something, Mr. Holland just said it casually and elegantly.
At this time, Brand was sitting in an "interview room" in the castle.
He was going to interview some "employees" for the "workshop" he was about to build.
Recently, in order to quickly "improve the quality of life", Brand has consumed a large amount of awakening potions, and his wallet has become increasingly empty as a result.
After realizing this fact, I thought about it for a while.
He planned to make a batch of "magic arrows" to sell in the market, and then enrich his wallet.
Just two days ago, Brand was preparing to put his ideas into practical action.
He suddenly realized that drawing the base of the magic circle did not require special conditions, and the drawing process did not consume mental energy.
From this, Brand thought of a shortcut: he could "outsource" the business of drawing the base of the magic circle.
- He just needs to draw the final rune.
Brand was very happy after finding the shortcut!
However, before outsourcing the business of drawing the base of the magic circle.
There is another issue that Brand is a little unsure about.
——The issue of confidentiality contract.
Brand was a little unsure about how strict a confidentiality contract needed to be signed to outsource the base of the magic circle.
Which "conditions" must be added, and which "conditions" can be omitted, or in other words, you must "sell yourself"!
Although the contract in Farnes Continent is a very cheap magical creation.
But it contains unparalleled "coercive power".
Once you violate the contract, you will "inevitably" bear the corresponding "consequences."
Of course, the contract also has some flaws.
According to the so-called "contract equilibrium theory", the higher the cost of breaking a contract, the more difficult it is to sign a contract.
To successfully sign a contract, both parties need to "fully understand" the content of the contract and agree "from the bottom of their hearts" to successfully sign it.
And this "agree" even includes the "second personality", which is subconscious consent!
Therefore, after countless years of "running-in", when signing a contract in Farnes Continent, both parties to the contract will leave a certain "leeway" in the content to make the signing of the contract smoother.
In this context, if Brand wants to sign a confidentiality contract with workers.
He needs to set the contract content that is acceptable to both the other party and himself, so as not to be unable to sign the contract in the end.
——Brand, who has never drawn up such a contract, feels that this is a very troublesome thing!
After realizing that this problem was troublesome, Brand immediately wrote a letter of greetings to his teacher Celine.
In addition to the greetings throughout the letter, Brand also used one or two sentences at the end of the letter to "incidentally" ask about the problems he encountered during his recent "study."
For example, research on the possibility of "outsourcing" the magic circle base drawing business, what should be paid attention to when signing relevant confidentiality contracts, and are there any "precedents" for this business? Is there a contract “template”? Wait for a series of questions.
Within two days, Brand received a reply from Celine.
Celine's letter is relatively simple and direct. After a simple greeting at the beginning, a "contract template" is attached in the middle.
Finally, at the end of the letter, Celine used a few sentences to remind Brand not to forget the "homework" she assigned because he was busy making money.
cough!
After seeing the content at the end of the letter, Brand carefully tore off the relevant words about homework.
After disguising it as transportation loss, Brand folded it and put it into the space necklace.
Then, Brand, who got the "answer" from Celine, prepared to "interview" a group of interviewees according to the "template" in the letter.
According to the original plan, Brand planned to conduct this interview while taking advantage of lunch.
But because Catherine never brought lunch.
After thinking about it for a while, Brand decided to start here first.
"Let the first interviewer in."
As Brand finished speaking, the guard standing at the door quickly opened the door and invited the first "interviewer" waiting outside.
——That is a beautiful lady who is well-groomed and has plain makeup.
After sitting down under the guidance of the guards.
Before Brand could say anything.
Looking at the serious but "glorious" Brand in front of him.
The "interviewer" "unconsciously" smiled shyly, then pulled out a silk handkerchief and shook it.
With another sweet smile on her face, she said,
"Does Mr. Brand like my tone?"
As she said this, she vaguely revealed the rope under her tight clothes - the rope?
"..."
Seeing this scene, Brand couldn't help but frown!
——He is obviously not such a person, but he always has to bear the "hurt" that should not be caused at this age!
"Next one!"
Brand expressionlessly put a cross on the registration form in front of him!
When the interviewer was dragged away by the guards with a "smiling" smile.
Brand has secretly decided to add a clause in the contract that prohibits any "extraordinary" actions against him.
He felt that if this condition was not added.
Due to inner resistance, it is difficult to successfully sign a contract!
The next interview was very difficult.
When faced with Brand's additional information, all the "serious-looking" interviewers showed "strong" resistance.
Under such resistance, there is no way the contract can be signed smoothly!
Just when Brand asked the tall guard next to him with a headache on his face: if there were any male interviewers outside.
The guard first smiled understandingly, and then said regretfully:
"No!"
"Why!?"
Brand couldn't understand!
The guards on the other side explained to Brand thoughtfully:
"Since you dispersed all the maids except Catherine, they have been a little worried."
"What are you worried about?"
Brand looked confused.
The guard continued: "They are more worried about whether you want to change a group of maids. So they hope that their lover can stay away from you, Mr. Brand."
"Does this have any specific connection with them not coming to apply for the job? Can't I just ask their spouses not to get close to me?"
Brand continued to express confusion.
"That's right..."
Bang! boom!
A knock on the door interrupted the guard's words.
Then, a gentle and loving female voice came in:
"Ellie! My dear Ellie! Are you in there? Are you hungry? I brought you lunch!" I
heard the "purpose" of the visitor.
Brand smiled movedly.
——This is a woman who loves her boyfriend or husband so much that she comes all the way here to deliver food to the guard next to her.
The guard who answered Brand's question at the beginning was named Eli.
"What an elegant love!"
Brand sighed gracefully and was about to wave to the guard at the door to open the door.
But he saw the guard named Eli, who had been standing motionless beside him before, suddenly running towards the door in panic.
Then, he used his burly body to block all sight outside the crack of the door in advance.
Then he carefully opened the door a crack.
Finally, he stretched out his hand, closed it, and closed the door.
——All done in one go!
Seeing such a scene, Brand's face was extremely expressionless!
"Lord Brand, it's getting late. Would you like to have lunch first and continue in the afternoon?" At
this time, the guard on the side spoke up to ease the embarrassment of his companion, and also made thoughtful suggestions...
