"Zhao Di, don't leave yet."
Chu Yue's voice suddenly came. She was actually writing the contract with her head down while paying attention to Ye Zhaodi's situation.
Ye Zhaodi was startled and scratched her fingers nervously. Her face was no longer flushed as it was when she first argued with Zhou Genzhu. Instead, she looked like a poor young girl with a sense of inferiority.
She immediately turned around and looked at Chu Yue, thinking that Chu Yue had something to say to her, but Chu Yue didn't look up for a long time, so she could only stand there and wait quietly.
Seeing this, the greasy Zhou Genzhu was so smug that he reminded Chu Yue, "Comrade, if you pay, everything in my store is yours. You really can't let this little girl go. She hasn't been searched yet, who knows if she stole anything from the store? There are many poor people like them who can't even afford to eat, and there are many who are not clean. You must open your eyes and search her before letting her go."
"I didn't steal anything!" Ye Zhaodi was so furious when she heard Zhou Genzhu's slander that she wanted to catch Zhou Genzhu and beat him up again. However, in front of Chu Yue, she didn't know why she didn't want to do that.
She always felt that Chu Yue was unusual, and she didn't dare let Chu Yue see her aggressive and ferocious appearance.
Ye Zhaodi didn't dare to take any more action, while Zhou Genzhu became more and more arrogant.
He pointed at Ye Zhaodi and said, "You said no? Why should we believe what you said? You little bastard, I'm being polite to you by not stripping you of your clothes—"
"Boss Zhou, I have written the contract. Please sign it if there is no problem."
Chu Yue interrupted Zhou Genzhu's shouting with a cold voice. Her tone was calm and no emotion could be heard, but her slightly wrinkled brows revealed her annoyance with Zhou Genzhu.
The middle-aged man's sharp and harsh voice was really annoying.
Zhou Genzhu didn't notice this at all, because all his attention was attracted by the hundred yuan Chu Yue took out.
Money... lots of money...
Zhou Genzhu calmed himself down and checked the details of the contract at a glance. Chu Yue had written all the parts involving the amount and materials carefully and clearly, without any mistakes.
"The contract is fine. I'll sign it."
In this way, Zhou Genzhu and Chu Yue signed the contract in duplicate, and each kept one copy for filing.
Zhou Genzhu held the newly signed contract in his hand, staring greedily at the one hundred yuan in Chu Yue's hand, and said anxiously, "Money, give me the money quickly."
Chu Yue raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a hint of sarcasm, and handed the money over casually.
When Zhou Genzhu got the money, he was so happy that he opened his mouth and spat on his right thumb, then began to count the money one by one.
One, two, three... four, five, six...
"Boss Zhou, the money is correct, right?"
"That's right! It's exactly one hundred dollars! No mistake."
"Since the money is correct, from now on, this shop is mine."
"Yes, yes, wait for me to move the sewing machine, scissors and tools away, and the rest will be yours."
Zhou Genzhu's mind and eyes were filled with money. He didn't even raise his head, searching for pockets all over his body, wondering where to safely hide such a large sum of money, even though the money would only pass through his hands for a short while and he would have to return it to the debt collectors in a blink of an eye.
But he has money now! This is the capital for a comeback!
If he has the capital, he can still try hard. Maybe one hundred can become two hundred, two hundred can become four hundred, and if it turns into one thousand, it will not be a problem for him to open a tailor shop again.
Once a gambler, always a gambler.
Chu Yue had long seen through Zhou Genzhu's nature. She turned away with contempt and said to Ye Zhaodi who had been waiting nervously on the side.
"Zhao Di, come here."
When Zhou Genzhu heard this, he put the money into his pocket, his squinting eyes widened, waiting to see what would happen to Ye Zhaodi.
Who knew, he heard Chu Yue say——
"Ye Zhaodi, I want to hire you as a store employee, similar to the job of a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative, 20 yuan a month, are you willing to do it?"
How many? !
twenty? !
When Chu Yue said this, not only Ye Zhaodi herself, but even Zhou Genzhu was dumbfounded with his mouth wide open.
In this day and age, the basic salary of a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative ranges from 15 to 25 yuan, depending on length of service and level.
Ye Zhaodi was just a young girl, a complete novice, who had never worked as a salesperson. Yet Chu Yue offered her a monthly salary of 20 yuan right away, which was completely the treatment of a veteran employee.
Zhou Genzhu was the first to disagree, and he shouted back, "Comrade, if you want to find a salesperson for ten dollars a month, you can find a lot of them. There are so many people vying for the job! Why did you hire this stinky girl——"
Chu Yue gave him a cold look, and immediately stopped Zhou Genzhu from chattering.
It was she who was looking for the employee, and she wanted him to do something bullshit.
Chu Yue glared at Zhou Genzhu fiercely, then looked at Ye Zhaodi, "Don't worry about what others say, just tell me whether you want to do this job?"
Ye Zhaodi was in a state of shock and confusion, and every cell in her brain was screaming with excitement, because that was twenty yuan!
All the money she had ever spent in her life, added up to less than twenty dollars!
Now there are people willing to pay her twenty dollars a month to work for them!
It was like a huge pie in the sky falling on Ye Zhaodi's head, making her unable to believe it was true.
Ye Zhaodi was so excited that she was speechless. She clenched her fingers again and again, and then - nodded vigorously!
She panted, "I want it!"
"Okay." Chu Yue nodded in satisfaction and smiled at the little girl, "Today is your first day at work."
Ye Zhaodi was confused again... It was so fast? It was already the morning, could it still be counted as a day? Could I still pay for it?
Zhou Genzhu was also in disbelief.
His disbelief was different from Ye Zhaodi's. Ye Zhaodi was too excited and afraid that it was an illusion; Zhou Genzhu was out of anger, and a rage was burning in his chest.
When Chu Yue was bargaining with him just now, she acted like a seasoned businessman who had been in business for many years, not like a young girl at all. Her strong aura refused to give in, forcing Zhou Genzhu to have no choice.
But now... Chu Yue actually hired this stinky girl who was kicked out by him as a salesperson and gave her a super high salary of twenty yuan a month.
What does this mean? Slap him in the face?
The anger that made Zhou Genzhu's face slap painfully was just the beginning, because Chu Yue said next.
"Zhao Di, the first thing you have to do today is to keep an eye on him—" Chu Yue pointed at Zhou Genzhu unceremoniously, "From now on, this shop is mine, and everything in it is mine. I'll give you half an hour to take away everything you want to take away. You are not allowed to take anything more than what is in the contract. Zhao Di, you have to keep a close eye on him, to prevent some people from stealing and taking things away."
