Chapter 1266 (2/2)
Once nobles like themselves express their ”anger” towards them, even the most gentle workers who usually treat themselves will now kneel down in front of themselves and turn their worship eyes into panic eyes.
Is this hard to figure out?
It's not hard at all.
It can even be said that Ariel had vaguely guessed this.
But she doesn't want to admit it or recognize it.
Because she felt that she was different from other nobles. She was a nobleman who was really standing beside ordinary people.
But now when I think of it, my so-called standing beside them... Maybe it has always been just wishful thinking? For these people who have been bullied by the aristocracy before, Pelican city is just another aristocratic territory where ”the aristocracy is not so fierce”.
”So, what do you feel dissatisfied with?”
Napa stopped her head, patted Ariel's face with her palm and said——
”Well, stop worrying. Just put away your terrible expression. Just put it away and look at them with the usual smiling expression. I believe they will all smile at you. Aristocrats must show a gentle appearance on the surface. Come on, smile ~ ~! Don't you usually like to laugh most“
Ariel could only lower her head and think for a moment about Napa's statement, which she didn't know whether it was ridicule or really didn't understand.
Then, she gradually overcame the anger on her face, walked to a female worker with a smile, held out her hand, grabbed the kneeling female worker and helped her up slowly.
”Mayor“
”It's all right. I'm just running and panting“
Ariel put a smile on her face again. After helping the female worker, she looked back at the others and said, ”let's get up, too! It's okay. Now I'll get you up. But if I let you up and you don't obey, don't blame me for really getting angry! ”
People, look at me, I look at you. When they confirmed that the mayor's face was really smiling and no longer as angry as before, they slowly stood up.
However, even when they stand up, their faces are full of caution, and their knees are bent. It seems that they can kneel down immediately at any time.
For a moment, Ariel didn't insist. With a smile on her face, she took the woman worker's hand and walked slowly into the factory. After looking at the roaring element textile machine, she shook the woman's hand again, smiled and said, ”Elena, how are you working in the factory recently? Any complaints? You can bring it up“
Around, the workers also came in slowly and walked around the textile machine.
The female worker was obviously excited when she heard Ariel say her name! She pointed to her nose and said, ”I... Mr. Mayor, do you know my name“
Ariel nodded gently, smiled and said, ”it's OK. I only remember my first name, last name and middle name.”
The female worker quickly said, ”I... my name is Elena lovich Changge forest...”
Ariel smiled and continued, ”well, I remember it now. Have you been in my factory for nearly a month? Is there anything uncomfortable? ”
The female worker looked around again and saw that there was no very frightened expression on the faces of other textile workers except a little fear. Then she said, ”no... I have no idea... I can... Find a job in Pelican city... Accompany my husband... It will be good when he finishes his sentence...”
Ariel seemed a little dissatisfied. She held the woman's hand and felt that her palms and fingers were all wrinkled, which didn't match the woman's current appearance. It was like being a teenager for no reason. She asked again, ”no idea? It doesn't matter. Any ideas, complaints and suggestions can be put forward. You don't have to be afraid of anything. ”
Unfortunately, the female worker still shook her head and couldn't say anything.
Seeing that she didn't dare to say, Ariel could only take the initiative to pierce such a gap and gently said, ”what's the matter with these hands? Why do you look so old? The skin is dry and cracked, and the palms look dry. ”
The woman worker obviously didn't know how to answer Ariel's words. After hesitating for a long time, he replied: ”well... Mr. Mayor... Your hand... It's so slippery... It's so beautiful... My hand is very rough. You'd better not touch it... It makes you feel bad... I'm really sorry.”
Ariel was slightly stunned, but then nodded slightly. Instead, she clenched the woman's hand more tightly, turned her head and looked at the textile workers around. Then he said again, ”everyone, it's been hard. You can really ask me. As long as I can do what I can, I can really do it. In other words, what can be improved in the work of our textile mill? Didn't you often give advice to me or Tesla before? You can also mention it now. ”
These textile workers look at me and I look at you. Obviously, they don't know what to do now. What's more, I don't know how to face the mayor who attended the noble banquet in a luxury element car not long ago, wearing skirts they can't afford in their life and jewelry they can't afford in their lives. What else do you want to do now?
After a long time, the workers still had no response.
Seeing that they were all timid, afraid to speak or speak... Ariel was really disappointed.
After thinking about it, she said, ”I ask you, do you usually do anything besides work?”
The workers were silent again. Ariel could only accentuate this and asked again.
Finally, a worker boldly said, ”tell the mayor, we... No, i... I don't do anything after work, that is... Just shopping...”
If someone speaks, the problem is simple.
Ariel nodded and said again, ”shopping? Is it? Good. Shopping can kill time and buy something. What do you buy when you go shopping? ”
The worker thought about it, perhaps because these problems are not related to his textile work, so he said it more quickly: ”shopping? Well... Just buy some food, then buy some clothes... Occasionally buy a goblin drink, or buy two cigarettes to smoke... ”
Ariel smiled and gradually relaxed her grip on the female worker's hand, but she still didn't let go of each other's hand and continued to talk along the topic: ”it seems that she has bought a lot of things? Is there enough money? Is life a little cramped? ”
Perhaps it was because of the mention of ”money”, and the ”money” of these workers actually came from the mayor in front of them. Just now, the workers' relaxed expression became nervous again, their lips trembled, and hurriedly said, ”enough! The mayor... The salary the mayor gave us... Is really enough! ”
Seeing that he returned to the tense state just now, Ariel also knew that there were some problems in her way of asking questions. She quickly changed her way and asked with a smile, ”ah, let's put this topic aside and don't talk about him first. Do you often go shopping? Do you often visit the central square? I think the design of the central square is sometimes inappropriate. It seems that many places will be omitted. But I am also busy. I may not be able to go shopping often. What do you think of the central square? ”
The topic left their work again, and the expressions of these workers relaxed again.
Seeing their expressions, Ariel nodded silently in her heart and understood at least one thing - that is, don't use the identity of a boss to ask her employees whether they are satisfied with the salary. It may be impossible to get a correct answer at all.
Sure enough, after talking about the central square, some other workers are also eager to try. After all, some of them boldly said, ”Mayor... Sir, if you can, can you... Can you make the central square... A little less crowded?”
Ariel was stunned. The word ”crowded” was heard from others for the first time.
For Ariel, as long as she goes to the central square recently, there is no such thing as ”crowding”. And before that, she was still hesitant about where the stalls of flower goblins and blood clan would be better. It can be seen that the central square is generally empty and not crowded at all.
But now, crowded?
”What kind of crowding method? Tell me. ”
Seeing Ariel smiling at them now, the workers exhaled again and boldly said, ”every time... Every time I go to the central square and want to buy something, it will become very crowded and lively. Sometimes I can't even get in... If I just stroll around, it's OK, but sometimes I'm worried about some rice flour, grain and oil that the buyer wants to use, but I can't get in all the time. It's really hard to buy. ”
