"That's all for today," Rockefeller told Scrooge, lifting his eyes to the west, where the sun was beginning to set along its unchanging path, approaching the western horizon and turning half the sky into a patchwork of color.

"In two days, I'll graduate from business school," Rockefeller said. Rockefeller said, "Then it's time to find a job, and I'm sure I'll find a good one!" He quietly clenched his fist.

"Well, I'm about to graduate, so I'll have to think about that, too," Scrooge said.

"You're a monster," Rockefeller said jealously, "you're still young, what's the rush? But still, you are most likely to help in their home workshop first, will not immediately come out and fight me for work, right?"

In those days, technical work was still passed down from generation to generation. It was a tradition to start with the grandfather's grandfather in the shoe-making business, which remained unchanged for generations. So it seemed to everyone that Scrooge would continue to make shoes after his father, and then Scrooge's son would continue to make shoes until Jesus Christ came back into the world. But John Rockefeller didn't see it that way. Rockefeller didn't see it that way.

"I know that a man like you, Scrooge, can't be an honest shoemaker like your brother Carol. But I think you should familiarize yourself with the workings of business in your home workshop before you go independent." Rockefeller went on to say.

"Well, you also have a point. But ......" Scrooge thought for a moment, "John, you know, the traditional workshop style of business is already behind the times. You see, many years ago, most of the cloth on the market came from hand-made workshops that had been passed down from generation to generation, but with the advent of the Jenny textile machine, where are those hand-made weaving workshops still? John, the workshop has not only fallen behind in the way of making shoes, but its whole mode of operation, including the mode of purchasing and selling, has fallen behind with the times."

"Then you can change it." Rockefeller said, "Isn't that what you're good at? You've changed a lot of things lately."

Hearing that, Scrooge just laughed. He did not want to get into trouble with his own family over the business philosophy and end up in a direct turn of events, the old dead. Well, this is not alarmist, the immediate John? Rockefeller is a good example. He later fell out with the third of their family over business issues to the point of a complete falling out, and the third even used his two children who died from the Rockefeller family grave such a drastic means to show their determination to break off with John.

"I can't change the general trend, and if I go against the general trend, I'm going to die." Scrooge said, "But you also have a certain point, I still first help at home, see more, learn more and then come out to find things to do ...... Oh, by the way, looking for a job what you have prepared?"

"I do not have a lot of ways, can only be one by one to ask over it. I found a list of local companies, which have some descriptions of these companies, I also learned from the newspaper and other aspects of the situation of these companies, I will succeed." Rockefeller said.

Scrooge was about to say something when a shout came from afar: "John! Come back, your father is home."

John? John Rockefeller's father, Bill Rockefeller, was a counterfeit businessman. The company's main goal was to get the company to the point where it could be used as a place to buy and sell drugs. Of course, the more important reason for Bill's absence is that he has conned an 18-year-old girl elsewhere and started a family with her - Bill has already committed numerous frauds and is not under any pressure to commit bigamy.

John's mother, Aliza, knew that Bill had taken another wife, but she did not make a fuss with him, nor did she mention it to anyone, but just suffered in silence. This may be partly due to the influence of her religion and partly because she could not support her children without the money he gave her.

However, the outsiders didn't know about Bill's mess, but the people in his own family didn't. At least, John knew exactly what was going on with his old man. However, to say that Bill is also really a capable person, a lot of skills, but also taught John a lot of things, so John's father, on the one hand, a belly of dissatisfaction, but on the other hand, but still some admiration. So when he heard this news, John Rockefeller stood up immediately. The first thing you need to do is to get up and say, "I'll be right back!" Then, while packing up his notes, he said to Scrooge; "I'm going back."

"Okay," Scrooge said, "let me know if you find a job."

......

John Rockefeller is a member of a company. John Rockefeller stopped in front of a company, groomed himself carefully, wiped the dust off his shoes, patted off the dust that had stuck to him after walking for miles -- he couldn't afford to take a public carriage now, and even if he could, he wouldn't waste it like that, it wouldn't kill him to walk more --then looked up at the door of the company.

"This is the fifth day of job hunting, and the thirtieth company I've found." John Rockefeller. John Rockefeller said quietly to himself before walking into the office.

"What can I do for you?" A staff member asked him enthusiastically. But John D. Rockefeller knew that he had a problem. Rockefeller knew that his next words would blow that enthusiasm away from the man's face like a hurricane blowing away a blade of grass.

"I need to see your boss, I'm here to ask for a job." John Rockefeller said. Rockefeller said.

As expected, the smile disappeared from the employee's face, which was now completely expressionless and looked like an iceberg.

"The boss is not here!"

The polite but cold words were like a gust of wind, and John Rockefeller turned into a breeze. John Rockefeller turned into a fallen leaf, blown out of the company by this gale, and blew to the street. On the street, John Rockefeller looked at his hands. John Rockefeller looked at the notebook in his hand, carefully took out a pencil, drew a horizontal line on the name of a company, then carefully looked at the address of a company written below, then looked up to identify the direction, and walked in another direction - the next company was on the other side of the city, and there was still a long way to go.

......

"John!"

Just as John? Rockefeller was once again blown down the street by a gust of wind when a voice came from behind him. He turned around and saw Scrooge pulling a cart with his older brother Carol from that side. Scrooge waved at him as he helped push the cart.

John Rockefeller walked over to him. Rockefeller walked over and also reached out to help Scrooge push the cart. He saw that the cart was piled high with all kinds of things, such as nitrated leather, potions, and some things he didn't recognize.

"Hey, John, how's it going today?" Carroll and Scrooge were both relieved to have someone to give them a hand. So Carol asked John about his job search.

"Yeah, you be careful, don't get your clothes dirty," Scrooge said.

"It's not going well." John Rockefeller said. Rockefeller said, "I've been to more than 30 companies in the past few days, but none of them are interested in me."

"How can that be?" This situation is out of the expectation of Scrooge. In Scrooge's opinion, there is no shortage of job opportunities in the United States now, even though John D. Rockefeller was very discerning. Even though John Rockefeller was very discerning and was looking for the best companies in the country, which was even more difficult, with his quality, he wouldn't be able to get even one opportunity.

"I want to talk to you about it. We'll talk more about it when we get home, we're going uphill." John Rockefeller replied. John Rockefeller replied.

There was a long uphill stretch ahead, and it took the three men some effort to get the car up. At a slightly flatter point, they stopped the car and took a short break. Both Carroll and Scrooge wiped the sweat from their faces with their clothes, while John Rockefeller, although he was also a bit of a mess. Although John Rockefeller is also a face of sweat, do not dare as they do directly with clothes to wipe, because this decent point of clothing will be used tomorrow, dirty can not be replaced.

......

"This is how you seek employment these days?" After listening to John? After listening to John Rockefeller's presentation of his job search, Scrooge said, "Tell me first why you picked these companies, if you look for a place like that 'Little Molly' place next to us, it should be easy to find a job.

"That kind of place is too bad, isn't it?" John Rockefeller said. Rockefeller said, "I think I can afford to work at a better company."

"Then how do you know that the companies you went to are better than that 'Little Molly'?" Scrooge continued.

"Of course, and I checked ...... and so on I have some idea what you mean." John Rockefeller said. Rockefeller said, "I know these companies because of the talent to go to them for jobs, but they do not know me. All they know about me is how I look. And I and those who are more mature, look more experienced guys than one, at least look like there is no advantage, or even disadvantage is obvious. So of course they won't give me a chance. Right? Scrooge, that's what you mean, isn't it?"

"You're a future tycoon, you're quick to react!" The first time I saw you, I was very impressed.

"Yes, that's what I mean." To get a chance, you must have a way to make them understand your difference immediately and find your value immediately. And the way you said it in your previous job search just didn't show what makes you unique. So, I think you need to improve your job search."
