Yuan Shang cheerfully said, "Well, we only posted notices on our own storefront, so it's inevitable that people working far away wouldn't know. There are also many who can't read, so they mostly don't understand the notice. The other day, I ran into a familiar mediator and casually mentioned it. He said he'd help spread the word to people."
The mediator's network is indeed broader than the average person's, but could the mediator's help in spreading the word really have such an exaggerated effect?
Seeing Ye Xinyan's shocked expression, Yuan Shang laughed and said, "Our Construction Industry has already given out bonus money for two quarters this year, and our daily wages are also much higher than others. Although many in the Construction Industry defame us, claiming we won't last, there are craftsmen who don't believe it and come to us for the wages and quarterly bonuses."
