Chapter 80 Exclusive Relationship on Jinjiang Literature City
Su Ruyi raised an eyebrow; she didn't entirely believe Cao Zhaozhao's explanation.
She had heard Wang Huiting mention this aunt before, and knew that this aunt did value her son more, but she did not mistreat her daughter, nor did she neglect her.
"You can come and report after you get your parents' consent."
Su Ruyi didn't know what was going on with this family, but she didn't want to cause trouble for herself. She wasn't that kind-hearted, and she didn't hate her aunt so much that she would spend extra effort to sow discord between the mother and daughter.
Cao Zhaozhao immediately became anxious: "Why? I don't see others using it either."
Su Ruyi didn't explain to her, and said firmly, "Here, things must be done according to my rules."
Seeing that Su Ruyi showed no mercy, Cao Zhaozhao immediately fell silent.
She had overheard her grandmother complaining to her mother that Su Ruyi was very heartless and didn't acknowledge the Tong family.
Her mother was very angry about this and wanted to go to Su Ruyi several times to teach her how to be a proper junior.
However, Su Ruyi is often not at home, and her mother has been very busy lately, so we haven't run into each other.
She was taking a gamble when she came to apply for the job, thinking that Su Ruyi probably wouldn't know who she was, but she was still recognized.
Moreover, the other party clearly didn't care about her family affairs at all and had no intention of getting involved.
Cao Zhaozhao left hesitantly, her expression full of grievance, but Su Ruyi completely ignored her.
After the recruitment of new workers is completed, they will begin working after receiving brief training.
"How are the new workers doing? Are they adapting?" Su Ruyi asked.
Xu Xiaonan: "There's nothing major wrong. We just made some adjustments to some people, and everyone's been asking when they can work overtime."
Su Ruyi was taken aback. "There are people who voluntarily ask to work overtime?"
"But many people think that way; everyone wants to earn more money."
Xu Xiaonan explained the reason behind it: "Anyway, I would still have to work when I go home. There would be a lot of work, but no one would think it's a big deal. It's better to stay and work in the factory. The money I get is real, and you can't erase my contributions."
Those who think this way are mostly young girls who are still living at home and are not yet married.
Women with elderly families often want to work overtime simply to earn more money and supplement their family's income.
With soaring prices in recent years, money is becoming less and less valuable, so we must strive to increase our income.
In most families, the children are taken care of by their elders, which frees up time for them.
Moreover, there are extra meals for working overtime, and the food is better than regular meals, so you can take some home and enjoy a delicious meal.
"We won't make any arrangements for now. We'll talk about it after they've mastered the skills. It's almost the end of the month, so have Wang calculate the wages and pay them on time on the 30th."
Wang Suyi has now been officially promoted to accountant, responsible for the accounts of the garment factory and the hula hoop distribution station.
Despite not having any formal experience, Wang Suyi is quite capable and quickly got the hang of things. She was very clear about the accounts of the hula hoop distribution station she managed before.
Now, managing the accounts of multiple factories is also something he can quickly master.
Su Ruyi was initially worried that she wouldn't be able to handle the workload, so she thought of transferring her here and finding someone else to take over her previous job.
Wang Suyi volunteered, saying that she could manage, and even if she was too busy, her younger brother could help.
Wang Suyi's younger brother is an experienced accountant who also takes on a lot of side jobs.
“But we haven’t even worked a full month yet,” Xu Xiaonan said instinctively.
Although she already knew when salaries were paid and that state-owned enterprises paid salaries at fixed times, she was still taken aback when she heard that she was about to receive her paycheck.
"Then it will be calculated as less than a month's salary. From now on, salaries will be paid at the end of the month. If it falls on a weekend or holiday, it will be paid in advance on the last working day."
Xu Xiaonan was very happy to hear this, as the most important thing for a working person is their salary.
"Okay, I'll go find Accountant Wang right now."
"You need to submit a report on the workers' performance in all aspects before the end of the month. Outstanding employees will be offered formal contracts directly. You will also be officially promoted at the end of this month and start receiving a formal salary next month."
When Su Ruyi returned, she originally planned to promote Xu Xiaonan to a permanent position. Her performance was so outstanding that such a talent should not be let go.
Later, she thought it best to follow the rules and promote a new batch of people to permanent positions at the end of each month to avoid confusion. She figured she could just give out an extra bonus at the end of the month to compensate for the reduced salary caused by those not being promoted.
Xu Xiaonan was even more excited upon hearing this: "Director Su! I will definitely do my best!"
Since there was no need to keep this news a secret, Xu Xiaonan quickly shared it with everyone in the factory.
Everyone has been working hard from dawn till dusk for so long, it's time to give everyone some reassurance and encourage them to work even harder.
The newly hired worker couldn't help but pull her aside and ask, "Will we get paid at the end of this month too?"
"Yes, you get paid for the number of days you work."
Everyone was overjoyed to receive their wages after only a few days of starting work.
Some people had told them that working for a private boss meant the boss might run away without paying them, and they wouldn't be able to find the person.
Now nobody's worried anymore; everyone's just thinking about how much money they'll get at the end of the month.
“We haven’t worked for more than a few days, and we didn’t do well at first, so we definitely won’t make much money.”
"As long as I get the money, I don't care how much it is."
"Oh dear, I need to be faster so I can earn more money and buy myself a pair of leggings."
Factory workers can buy clothes from the factory at factory prices, which are more than half the price of those sold outside. However, such low prices are limited; once the price is exceeded, the wholesale price applies.
Leggings are very comfortable to wear, and they come in a variety of colors that look great. Now, in addition to solid colors, there are also various patterns available. The leggings are also very durable and wear-resistant, which has made everyone appreciate their quality.
This is also why it became so popular so quickly. It satisfies the desire for fashion, is comfortable to wear and easy to work with, durable and inexpensive, meeting the needs of the general public.
Ruyi Garment Factory's leggings are of excellent quality, mainly due to the superior material, which is significantly better than those of similarly priced products elsewhere.
Upon hearing this, everyone began to consider whether they should also buy one.
There is a monthly limit, and it will not accumulate after a certain period.
"What are you all hesitating for? Of course you're going to buy it! It's so cheap, only a fool wouldn't buy it. This is a benefit from the factory. You can get thousands of these for the same price even wholesale."
Think about it, even if you don't wear it yourself, you can resell it!
Someone couldn't help but speak out, then immediately shut up because they saw Zhou Xiang not far away.
Zhou Xiang and Xu Xiaonan are both close confidantes of Factory Director Su. If she hears what they say and it gets back to Factory Director Su, he might cancel this benefit.
Zhou Xiang didn't even lift her eyelids, and it was only at this moment that these people reacted.
On the day of the factory's opening ceremony, the factory was bustling with activity again. Su Ruyi originally only thought that it would be enough for the people in her own factory to have some fun, but she did not expect that so many people would come to support her.
Representatives from textile factories, dyeing and printing factories, and furniture factories, as well as from the county trade union, women's federation, and county party committee, came to show their support for the garment factory.
Now, Su Ruyi's factory has a total of 150 employees, including those sent from the textile factory, which is no longer a small factory.
Because of the factory's scale and promising prospects, the bank gave it the green light for loans, and the county attaches great importance to this private factory.
Its appearance has given everyone a boost of confidence and injected vitality into this once glorious county.
Textile and dyeing factories related to garment factories also benefited. Although it is only in its initial stage, the fact that the products have been distributed to other cities such as the provincial capital has also served as advertising for the textile factories.
Although the goods from the south are cheaper, you can't get this quality at the same price; they're not as reliable as those from the county textile factory.
Although many people now prioritize price over quality, they are not ignorant of quality. Moreover, Ruyi Clothing's prices are not high, which indicates that the raw material prices are not high. Some astute garment factories then followed this lead and found the textile factory.
Although it is still too early for textile factories to resume production, there are good signs.
Therefore, he was willing to give Su Ruyi some face.
Li Mingde said to Su Ruyi in private, "You're lucky, really. County Chief Zhang, who is in charge of the economy, has just taken office. He wants to make some achievements, but you probably know what the situation has been like in the past few years. So when he saw that your factory solved the employment problem for so many people, he took it to heart and hoped to make you a model so that there would be a good example for attracting foreign investment."
Su Ruyi immediately understood. No wonder her factory was so successful; she had thought it was because she was backed by a textile factory.
Setting up a factory is no easy task, especially in a small place. If the local atmosphere is not good, you will not only be bothered by local thugs, but some officials may also use their power to make things difficult for you and force you to pay tribute.
Even if they're not deliberately making things difficult, their strict requirements during certain inspections can still cause a lot of trouble.
Su Ruyi is not afraid of thugs. She has already made a name for herself in the county. Not only can she fight on her own, but she has also organized a team of thugs (security team). She is clearly a tough nut to crack.
But she has no connections, so she was afraid of being harassed by the local authorities. But it seems she doesn't have to worry about that for now.
Su Ruyi initially didn't want to expand too much for this reason. Later, she thought it better to take a gamble and make a quick profit; a prolonged operation would make it harder to recoup funds. If something really happened that she couldn't handle, she would simply sell the factory and leave.
So she was in a hurry because she wanted to make quick money and sell a batch of goods as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, she was lucky and could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"I see. Should I go and express my gratitude?"
Su Ruyi asked humbly, as she truly did not know these things.
This is why she doesn't like taking on big responsibilities; the interpersonal relationships behind these things are too troublesome, and she really doesn't like dealing with them. She just wants to be a simple, wealthy person.
"He just took office."
Li Mingde spoke vaguely, but Su Ruyi still understood.
A new broom sweeps clean and tidy up when he takes office; who knows what will happen in the future.
Su Ruyi had a rough idea of what County Magistrate Zhang's style was now; he still cared a lot about his reputation.
"Uncle Li, please remember to give me some pointers later, as I don't really know much about these things."
"No problem, no problem. You're about the same age as my daughter, and I treat you like my own daughter. If you get into trouble, I definitely won't stand idly by."
Su Ruyi smiled and said, "I knew you were a great person, Uncle Li. I'll go visit my aunt and sister when you have some free time."
"Sure, you're welcome anytime."
Zeng Guoqin expressed her approval upon learning that Su Ruyi and Li Mingde's relationship had progressed further.
"Old Li knows how to get along with people and has connections everywhere. If you befriend him, he can help you out if you ever need anything in the future."
Direct help is out of the question; their relationship hasn't reached that point yet. If Li Mingde were to ask someone for help, he would have to use personal connections. But Su Ruyi only needs an opportunity or prior knowledge of the situation.
