The Farming Saint in the Starry Wasteland (Elizabeth Schofield) novel Chapter 463

Chapter 463 Hired on the Spot

“You quit? You guys actually quit Seafarm Group?“*

“Why on earth would you quit?”

“Isn’t Seafarm Group a great place to work? Why walk away from a company that big?”

A barrage of questions came flying at them all at once.

Enola couldn’t quite keep up, and she took a step back.

Louis stepped forward and tried to smooth things over. “We heard Tycoon Farm’s fruits and vegetables have real mental healing power, and we wanted to buy some to take home for our families. A job matters, put our family’s health matters more, so we left Seafarm Group. And just our luck, we heard Tycoon Farm is hiring, so we figured we’d come give it a shot!”

“Exactly!” Lily chimed in beside him, working up her courage too. “My mom’s mental power has taken some serious damage. If Tycoon Farm’s fruits and vegetables could really heal her, I’d work my fingers to the bone for them without a second thought!”

The crowd around them stirred.

“Oh, sweetie, no need to work your fingers to the bone, nothing like that. But a young girl like you being so devoted to your mother, I’ve got your back!”

“Tell you what, compared to what Tycoon Farm is putting out, Seafarm Group’s stuff just keeps getting pricier and the quality keeps getting worse! If there had been any other option before, who in their right mind would’ve kept shopping there?”

“I’ve got a nephew who works at Seafarm Group too. He says the company is unbelievably stingy. You guys leaving might actually be a blessing in disguise.”

“Tycoon Farm is the place to be! Look at those young workers/putting their hearts into the work, and those smiles are the real deal!”

Roger and the others stood there in the middle of the crowd, hearing all this encouragement, and something warm started building in their chests.

The crowd kept growing, and the commotion got louder.

Fiona was over at the entrance directing the flow of customers, and when she heard the racket, she frowned and walked over.

“What’s going on?” She pushed her way through the crowd. “What happened here?”

Poppy immediately grabbed her arm, practically buzzing with excitement. “Miss, these kids just quit Seafarm Group and they want to apply for jobs here!”

Fiona paused for a moment and looked over at Roger and the group.

Enola’s palms were slick with sweat from the nerves, but she gathered herself and stepped forward.

“Um, hi. We’re employees at Seafarm Group… well, former employees.” The words came out shaky. “We just quit Seafarm Group today, and we heard you’re hiring, so we wanted to come ask if… if you’re still hiring?”

Once she got the words out, she looked at Fiona with hopeful eyes.

The others were all watching her too, just as anxious.

The crowd around them went quiet, waiting to see how this would play out.

Fiona took in the dozen or so people standing in front of her.

There were young women, sturdy middle–aged men, Janky young guys, and shy middle–aged women.

Every face was a mix of nerves and hope, with a quiet flutter of worry in their eyes.

“From Seafarm Group?” Fiona asked.

Enola’s heart dropped, and she rushed to clarify. “We were with Seafarm Group, but we really did quit!”

The others all nodded vigorously.

Fiona was quiet for a few seconds.

For Roger and the rest, those few seconds stretched on like an eternity.

Then…

Fiona smiled.

That smile was brighter than the sunshine.

“Welcome!” she said loud and clear. “Welcome, all of you!”

Roger, Enola, and every last one of them were stunned.

Fiona had already stepped forward and given Enola’s shoulder a friendly pat. “Our farm could really use the extra hands, and you guys came at just the right time!”

As she spoke, she pulled a stack of aprons out of her storage button.

The aprons were a soft, pale green, with “Tycoon Farm” embroidered across the chest.

Fiona shoved one of the aprons into Enola’s hands.

“Here, put it on!”

Enola held the apron, completely frozen.

“Right… right now?”

“Yes, right now!” Fiona was already passing out aprons to the others. “We’re short–staffed today, and you guys arrived at the perfect time. How you perform today is your interview. Do well, and you’ll be hired on the spot!”

Enola took the apron with trembling hands.

She looked down at the pale green fabric, at those two embroidered words, and her eyes suddenly welled up.

Louis, next to her, had already pulled his on, tying the strings and muttering, “How does this thing tie? Like this? Or like this?”

Fiona taughed and helped him straighten it out.
