Chapter 559: Mutual Appreciation
After hearing what Zhang Juexia said, Shen Liang was so scared that he shook his head repeatedly and almost knelt down, "Madam, you misunderstood. We have the Shen family behind us to have our current stable and good life. How can you think that the Shen family is not good?
It’s my own fault, I…”
Encouraged by Zhang Juexia, Shen Liang bravely expressed his thoughts, "Madam, this is the case. I am not married yet. When I get married and have children, I don't want my children to still be slaves.
I want him to read…”
Seeing that Zhang Juexia didn't say a word after hearing what he said, Shen Liang began to feel uneasy, "Madam, I was just talking nonsense, don't take it seriously, I...
To be honest, I have worked in the Shen family for so many years, and I know and understand that no family likes to have their employees sign a contract.
Besides, I wouldn't feel safe without a signed contract for such a big deal!"
Zhang Juexia couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Chen Liang, do you know what the most annoying thing about you is?"
Shen Liang shook his head repeatedly.
“After so many years as a police officer, he still doesn’t know the rules and is always good at guessing other people’s thoughts.
Do you understand better than me, or do you know more than me?"
"I dare not, I dare not."
"Chen Liang, I already have a baby in my belly, I can understand your heart.
The baby in my belly hasn't come out yet, and I think every day about how to give him the best things.
It's a good idea of yours, I support it. Don't worry, if you really decide to work here, I will give you the position of Qingfeng City Manager and the indenture.
You are working for me as a freelancer, but there is one thing I need to tell you in advance.
Even if we don't sign a personal indenture, we have to sign a work-related contract, otherwise we can't bind each other.
Oh, by the way, how much silver do you get paid every month in the Shen Mansion?"
Shen Liang knew that this matter could not be concealed, “A monthly salary of two taels of silver, but this does not count as a reward from the masters during the New Year and other festivals.”
“I understand, Shen Liang, since I plan to use you, let’s be honest!
When you come to me, you are not just a coachman anymore. Being a manager naturally means you have to do much more than driving a coach. You should be mentally prepared for this.
As for the monthly salary, here's my plan: I'll temporarily give you six taels of silver.
After the two shops start to make a profit, I will decide the share for you.
What do you think?
After hearing what Zhang Juexia said, if Chen Liang hadn't had the slightest bit of rationality left to go home and discuss it with his father and mother, he would have agreed without hesitation.
Zhang Juexia patted the dazed Shen Liang, “Okay, it’s getting late today, you should go back and think about it carefully.
Also, come early tomorrow and go to the dental clinic with me."
After seeing off Shen Liang, before Zhang Juexia even entered the house, he saw Lin Yuan rushing over in a carriage from another place.
Ye Beixiu quickly jumped off the carriage, stepped forward and took Zhang Juexia's hand, "My lady, are you waiting for me?"
Zhang Juexia smelled the alcohol on him and couldn't help but frown and covered his nose with his hand, "How much did you drink?"
Ye Beixiu curled his lips and smiled helplessly, "My dear, if I say I haven't touched a drop of alcohol, you will definitely not believe it.
Alas, I was originally looking forward to finishing the exam as soon as possible, but who would have thought that after the exam, I would have so many social engagements out of nowhere.
Most of the people who take part in the military imperial examination are skilled in swordplay and gunplay. If you don't drink, they will force you into the jar of wine and force you to drink it.
So, I became more cautious and sprinkled some wine on myself in advance. When these people smelled the alcohol on me, they stopped forcing me to drink.
My dear, wait a minute, I'll go wash up and change my clothes before I talk to you."
Ye Beixiu settled Zhang Juexia in the room and went to take a shower.
After Ye Beixiu finished his shower and changed into clean clothes, Zhang Juexia stood up and leaned over to him again to sniff carefully. "This time I believe it. There really is no smell of alcohol."
Ye Beixiu grabbed Zhang Juexia and held her in his arms, "I know that my wife can't stand the smell of alcohol. If she drinks again, it will be too much."
"You know what's good for you."
"My dear, I'm so obedient, are you going to reward me with something?"
Zhang Juexia looked at his face as it came up to him and kissed him twice, "Since you've been so good, I'll reward you!"
Ye Beixiu was satisfied and pulled Zhang Juexia to sit next to him. Zhang Juexia asked him, "Do you have any social engagements tomorrow?"
Ye Beixiu sighed helplessly, "Alas..."
"Is this it?"
"If the prefect invites you to dinner, I'm afraid I won't even have the courage to refuse."
"We must seize this opportunity to show our faces."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Madam. I wonder how your shop is doing?"
Zhang Juexia told Ye Beixiu about the progress and said, "Tomorrow I will take Shen Liang to the dental clinic to see if we can recruit a few assistants and a shopkeeper."
She also briefly told Ye Beixiu about Shen Liang's affairs. Ye Beixiu thought about it and then expressed his concerns. "Shen Liang is from the Shen family after all. If you use him, what will happen to the Shen family?"
Zhang Juexia remembered what Madam Shen said to her that day, and said confidently, "As long as Shen Liang himself is willing, there should be no problem with the Shen family.
My husband, do you want me to use Shen Liang or Madam Shen's idea? "
Ye Beixiu became interested and insisted that Zhang Juexia explain the reason.
"That day, Madam Shen told me that Shen Liang was a good boy. She thought about who to let drive the carriage for us for a long time before deciding on Shen Liang.
And for this matter, she also promised Chen Liang that after he finished our job, she would give him a job as the manager of the car dealership when he returned to the Shen Mansion.
Later, she saw Shen Liang following me, and she was very helpful.
She then said, if you feel that you can use such a good young man, just let him follow you!
At the time, I thought Madam Shen was joking. Later, she mentioned it again and told me not to worry. If I really asked, she would definitely find a way to make Shen Liang follow me.
"What does the lady think?"
"If Shen Liang is willing, I have no objection."
"Well, I think so too. After all, he is from the Shen family. Madam, what I have heard most about in Qingfeng City these days is the Shen family.
It turns out that Madam Shen was so powerful when she was young.
After listening to Madam Shen's story, I finally understand why she likes you so much."
Zhang Juexia listened to Ye Beixiu's suspense and deliberately said, "Isn't it because I, your wife, am beautiful and likable?"
Ye Beixiu nodded repeatedly, "My lady is right, the reasons you mentioned should be considered correct!
But what I want to say is that you and Old Madam Shen are both very capable people, and she should have a mutual admiration for you!"
