As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.
She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicl...
"In short, you remember this: our company doesn't hire rotten people."
Lin Jingyu continued, "No matter how good their acting skills are or how outstanding their work is, if their character is flawed, we won't accept them."
"I understand, boss."
Du Heng nodded. "I will recruit people according to your requirements."
"Mr. Du, you were one of the first to join our company, so you can be considered a veteran."
Lin Jingyu looked at the person in front of her and said, "I believe you also want our company to grow bigger and stronger and create brilliance, so we must strictly adhere to the rules when selecting people."
We also need to supervise the staff we've recently hired, and fire any bad apples immediately to prevent them from corrupting our team.
Du Heng agreed again, "Please rest assured, boss, I will."
...
night.
Lin Jingyu received a call from Liu Shengyi.
Knowing that Peng Shiyu had arrived in the south and was preparing to take a cargo ship to Xiangdu the day after tomorrow, I told her the exact time to pick her up.
Long-distance calls are too expensive, so I just explained everything in a few words and hung up.
"Jingyu, Shiyu will arrive in Xiangdu the day after tomorrow?"
Chen Xinyue, who was standing nearby, heard it all clearly: "Did you mean there were other people who came with her?"
"Yes, there are about six or seven of them."
Lin Jingyu nodded, "These are all veterans. Our company happens to be short of security personnel, so their arrival is perfect. They can be assigned to the company's security department."
“Your company needs people, and they can come and get their ID cards. It’s not a big problem.”
Chen Xinyue added, "However, your company doesn't have dormitories yet. The staff you hire are all locals, so you don't need to arrange dormitories for the time being."
However, you must provide accommodation for the people Shiyu brought.
Now that you have this house, what are your plans?
"Yes, that is indeed a problem."
Lin Jingyu scratched her head. "Either buy another house, or rent one as a dormitory."
"I think you should still buy it."
Chen Xinyue suggested, "Since your company is in Kowloon, why don't you just buy a dormitory building in Kowloon? That way, your staff will be closer to work."
This apartment is just right for the three of us.
"You're not going home?"
Lin Jingyu's eyes widened. "Is it really okay for you to live away from home long-term? Will Uncle Chen come knocking on your door with a knife and try to kill you?"
"No way."
Chen Xinyue snorted coldly, "Don't forget those two people in my family. They'd love for me not to go back."
I'm too lazy to play along with them, so I'll just stay here; it'll be more comfortable."
"You don't own any houses?"
Lin Jingyu raised an eyebrow. "If you don't want to live with her and her son, you can move out and live on your own."
"I bought two sets."
Chen Xinyue sat on the sofa, picked up a bottle of beverage and took a sip. "One set is for my brother, one set is for my sister, and I don't have any for myself."
“Your older brother is still in the army and can’t come over for the time being. You can stay in this apartment for now, and we can buy him a place later.”
“I didn’t think too much at the time. I was thinking of living with my dad and buying houses for my brother and sister first when I had money.”
Is the house currently vacant or rented out?
“If we don’t need to live there right now, we’ll definitely rent it out to someone else. What’s the point of leaving the house empty? We can make a living by renting it out every month. My younger sister rents out her house and has a fixed income every month.”
"This arrangement is indeed quite good."
Lin Jingyu showed her agreement, "But we should have our own place, so it will be more convenient when we want to stay there."
"How about this: when Shiyu comes over, we'll find a nice neighborhood and each buy a house. What do you think?"
"sure."
Chen Xinyue smiled and said, "It would be best if we were in the same building, so it would be more convenient for me to get meals from you later."
"I have no objection."
Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "Since the company is in Kowloon, let's buy a house there so we can get home and rest earlier when we're busy."
"Sure, there seems to be a new housing development. Let's go check it out together sometime."
Chen Xinyue stretched and said, "It's best to find a dorm room first tomorrow, otherwise it will be difficult to arrange things if a bunch of people come."
"Um."
Lin Jingyu poured herself a glass of warm water and explained her plan: "It's not possible to build a dormitory building in a short time right now. I can only find a suitable place to build a dormitory building, and then buy land to build a dormitory building when I make money."
Are you free tomorrow? Come with me to Kowloon and see if we can find a suitable place.
"No problem, I'm not busy these next few days."
...
the next day.
After having breakfast, the two women began looking for a suitable dormitory building near the company.
At that time, although Xiangdu had many high-rise buildings, most of the buildings were still ordinary residential houses.
Some are single-story houses, some are courtyard houses, and some are sheds built by themselves.
I walked around several streets but couldn't find a suitable place.
"Jingyu, the bungalow we just saw must have been several hundred square meters in total. I wonder if anyone has bought it."
As Chen Xinyue walked, she said, "If the homeowner is willing to sell, you can buy it first, and then you can build a skyscraper yourself."
"No rush."
Although Lin Jingyu was tempted, she didn't have much money on hand.
Since I'm planning to buy a dormitory building and my own little place, I'll definitely need a lot of money.
The company currently has no revenue.
She didn't want to expand too much at once, as being overwhelmed could easily lead to problems.
