Chapter 158
Jin Gui's face turned ugly. She approached Zhong Qiao and said with a guilty look on her face, "Sister Zhong Qiao, I brought them up before. I didn't expect them to take advantage of their age. I..."
Zhong Qiao had known something like this would happen. She interrupted Jin Gui and said, "Don't rush to explain. There will be punishment, but the immediate priority is to deal with these bad apples."
There is still time, otherwise these bad apples will spoil the whole bunch.
Jingui asked tentatively, "So, should we just tell these people not to come?"
If this is the case, wouldn't other people who see it say that they are making a big deal out of nothing and are cold-blooded and heartless?
Zhong Qiao picked up a book and sat on a stool. He drank tea leisurely and elegantly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, wait and see. Let them all stand and no one is allowed to leave. When these two people come, we will start working again."
It is the off-season now, and it is time to research new products, so starting work later does not affect Zhong Qiao.
"Okay." Jin Gui's heart tightened.
It was the first time she saw Zhong Qiao smile so creepily. It was obvious that he must be angry.
Jingui didn't dare to act careless anymore and waited nervously with the other girls.
Time passed minute by minute, Zhong Qiao had already read more than a hundred pages and drank two cups of tea.
The weather was cool in the morning, but it got a bit hot as the morning approached. The girls stood in the sun, feeling sweat on their foreheads. They looked at the leisurely Zhong Qiao and wondered what was wrong with the boss today? Why was he so uncommunicative?
The other thing is that he cursed Cao Chun and the other two madly. Not only were they lazy at work, but he also told them about such an important matter as the meeting the night before yesterday and reminded them again last night. As a result, these two people agreed to it verbally but didn't take it seriously at all.
Now it’s okay, everyone is exposed to the sun as well.
Zhong Qiao felt a little hot and said, "Have the girls stand under the tree in two rows."
"Also, leave two seats for them, right in the first row."
Jingui nodded and gave the order. The girls stood in two rows. With the shade of the big tree, they were not so exposed to the sun, but the hot wind made them feel upset.
Just when the girls were getting impatient, the two main characters who were the finale appeared.
They were holding a bag of pig's trotters in their hands and gnawing on them, their fingers were covered in oil, and they were laughing so happily, completely unaware that they were about to face a disaster!
"Hey, what are you guys doing?" Cao Chun walked to the front and finally realized something was wrong. "Why are you all standing here?"
Before she could figure out what was going on, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhong Qiao, who was smiling gently, and Jingui, who had a dark face.
As if she had just realized that she still had work to do, her face looked very unhappy. This was too unlucky. She usually thought that the warehouse was so big that no one could manage it anyway, so she and her good sister often had lunch before coming to work.
Unexpectedly, I was caught red-handed by my boss.
"Come here, both of you." Jingui shouted.
The two men looked at each other, responded tremblingly, then walked towards Zhong Qiao and stopped, their legs shaking.
Zhong Qiao closed the book. "If I remember correctly, you didn't get off work until 9:30, right? Did you two take a day off with Jingui today?"
The two of them felt a pang in their hearts. They knew something was going to happen, but they never expected so many people to be watching. Everyone in the entire warehouse came just because of them.
"We, we." Both of their faces flushed and they stammered, unable to speak.
They couldn't say they were sick, so in public, they were chewing pig's trotters, and they looked fine.
"Let me tell you." Zhong Qiao put down the book and stood up. "Because we don't have any rules here. You can leave if you want to, or stay if you want to. Anyway, no boss will know, right?"
When the two heard this, they were so scared that their diapers were about to get wet.
"Boss, we know we were wrong, and we will definitely change for the better."
As the saying goes, a man who knows the current situation is a hero. The two men racked their brains but couldn't find an excuse, so they simply admitted it directly: "Boss, we have no merits but we have worked hard, so please forgive us this time."
Zhong Qiao said, "This isn't the first time you've done this. I've given you three chances, and today happened to be the third. You've already used up your chances, so there's naturally no way I can give you a fourth."
"Also, you two, open your eyes and take a look." Zhong Qiao pointed at the girls still standing under the shade of the tree, "They are all dragged into this situation because of you two."
The two looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never seen such a serious situation before. Why did it feel like they had committed a crime today? All the people were dragged out just for the two insignificant people like them.
"Boss..." The two people wanted to say something.
Zhong Qiao did not give them a chance to speak.
"Jin Gui, give them this month's money so they don't have to come here anymore."
This news was like a bolt from the blue, leaving the two people present stunned, including the girls who were standing closer under the shade of the tree. When they heard this, they couldn't help but be frightened by the result.
Sister Zhong Qiao seemed particularly angry today. I have never seen her like this before. I didn't expect that when she got angry, she would not give anyone a chance and just tell them to get out.
Sure enough, the boss is still the boss.
"Zhong Qiao." The two men couldn't stand it any longer. "We were just late, why are you so cruel? We have families to support. If you fire us, what will we eat and drink?"
Zhong Qiao frowned: "Then every time you were sneaky and bullying the newcomers, why didn't you think about the children you have to raise at home?"
The two people stammered and couldn't answer. As things had developed to this point, it was obvious that Zhong Qiao had done enough homework. Even the little things they did in private did not escape Zhong Qiao's eyes.
Zhong Qiao raised his hand: "No need to say anything, you can just leave."
The two people were completely panicked, and their forced calmness was gone.
"Boss, we know we were wrong, please don't let us go."
They are old and are looked down upon by their family. If it were not for their friends' introduction, they would not have found out that the work in the warehouse is easy and the wages are twice as high as those of other families. With the money, they feel confident and their family members are all in a good mood towards them.
But now, Zhong Qiao actually wants them all to leave? How are they going to live in the future?
An emotion called regret spread in their hearts, and the two people were pulled out, but they refused to let go of the door.
"Boss Zhong Qiao, you are a kind person. Please don't bother with us. We know we were wrong and we won't dare to do it again. Please give us one more chance."
Zhong Qiao closed his eyes and didn't listen.
Zhong Qiao had noticed that the atmosphere in the warehouse was not right a few days ago, so he kept a close eye on it and sure enough, he caught a few bad apples. He had thought that if they admitted their mistakes and could correct them, he could give them another chance, but he didn't expect these two people to be so shameless and would not give up until they were at their wit's end.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey. In order to deter others in the future, Zhong Qiao had to kill the chicken even if he didn't want to.
