Chapter 319 Intern
Qin Ce casually said, "I'll buy it and wait for the demolition compensation."
Qiao Xing was stunned for a moment, "What?"
"Demolition and relocation lead to increased property value."
Qin Ce spoke with utmost seriousness; if he had directly said it was for Qiao Xing, she definitely wouldn't have agreed.
But if we put it another way, it's different.
Qiao Xing looked at him suspiciously, "I haven't heard anything about demolition."
“If you heard about this, your aunt wouldn’t sell it.”
Qiao Xing thought about it and realized it made sense. She unconsciously lowered her voice, "So where did you get this information? When is it going to be demolished?"
"Within five years."
"Within five years? Really? If it's not demolished, then it's a waste of money."
Qin Ce pulled her back to the restaurant for dinner, saying, "No, even if it's not demolished, it's not a loss to keep it here as a memento."
Qiao Xing didn't know how to respond to that. Did he have a lot of money to spend hundreds of thousands to buy it as a souvenir?
Thinking about his year-end bonus, sure enough, he squandered the money.
But when he said the area would be demolished within five years, Qiao Xing felt that he was telling the truth, since he was sure that Qiao Xing had access to information much faster than he did.
Qiao Xing racked his brains but couldn't come up with a reason to stop him from buying the house.
I might as well just grab my chopsticks and start eating.
After He Fen returned home, she was also thinking about selling the house. She wanted to sell it quickly, so she needed to find a real estate agent and pay them a 2% commission.
She gritted her teeth and contacted the real estate agent, asking them to come and view the apartment the next day.
Wang Yue, who was standing to the side, sighed and said helplessly, "Wouldn't it be the same if you just sold the house to them? Why make such a fuss?"
He Fen said irritably, "I'm not selling to them! Look at their attitude, I'd have to be crazy to sell to them again!"
She had made up her mind that even if Wang Qin was offered 300,000 yuan, she would not sell the house to Qin Ce.
Wang Yue couldn't argue with her, so he let her be to avoid being accused of siding with outsiders.
Moreover, Wang Qin's situation has disheartened him as her older brother, so he doesn't plan to get involved anymore and lets He Fen do whatever she wants.
Wang Yue brought up another matter, "If we sell the house, where will we live?"
He Fen said matter-of-factly, "Doesn't our daughter-in-law have a house? Let her live at her house. We've given her such a large dowry, what's wrong with her living there?"
"Then you go, I'm too ashamed to go."
He Fen sneered, "Fine, don't go. Go sleep on the overpass, become a homeless person, take it or leave it!"
Since the bride price hasn't been given yet, she can talk to Bai Yi about it when the time comes, and Bai Yi will have to agree whether he wants to or not.
——
The next day.
Qiao Xing went to work. Almost everyone had arrived today, including Bai Yi.
However, at noon, Bai Yi brought a new person, a newly hired intern.
Bai Yi asked Lin Shuang to take the lead, but Lin Shuang was upset about Zhang Zhe's situation these past two days, so she declined.
"I have so much work to do, I don't have time to mentor interns. You should find someone else."
Although Bai Yi was the team leader, few people in the department respected her. Bai Yi glanced at the others, and everyone pretended not to see her. Some even went to the restroom.
Bai Yi smiled and then handed the newcomer to Qiao Xing, saying, "Qiao Xing, you can take care of her."
Qiao Xing was taken aback for a moment, then whispered, "I'm still a newbie myself, is it really okay for me to mentor you?"
Qiao Xing's words were not a refusal, but rather she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take care of them and would delay their progress.
Bai Yi said, "No problem. Have you forgotten what I told you?"
She had previously said she wanted to resign.
Of course, before resigning, she would definitely make sure that Qiao Xing had a firm foothold in the department, at least enough to help Qiao Xing achieve results and be qualified to run for the position.
Qiao Xing had also thought of that. She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, then I'll take her with me."
Bai Yi nodded. "Then I'll leave it to you. Xiao Zhao, you can sit here."
"Okay, thank you, Team Leader Bai." Xiao Zhao sat to Qiao Xing's left and greeted him with a smile, "Hello, senior."
Qiao Xing glanced at her name tag; the intern's name was Zhao Yan.
She smiled and nodded, "Don't call me senior, I'm not that much older than you, just call me Qiao Xing."
"Okay, Sister Qiao Xing, is there anything I need to do? Or is there anything I can do? Please feel free to leave it to me."
Qiao Xing asked, "Did you just graduate?"
"Not yet. I'll graduate in the second half of this year, but I've heard that this company offers great benefits. I'll work hard and try to get a permanent position here!"
"That's great," Qiao Xing exclaimed, looking at Xiao Zhao, who had just graduated from school and seemed full of energy and clarity.
Zhao Yan chuckled, "So what do I need to do?"
Do you know how to make PowerPoint presentations?
"Yes, I know Photoshop, Illustrator, 3ds Max, and of course Office."
"...You know quite a lot, but for making a PPT, you don't need all of what you mentioned before; Office is enough."
"Okay, so what should I do?"
Qiao Xing took out a document from the side and handed it to her, "You can turn this market research into a PPT, we'll need it for the meeting."
"OK," Zhao Yan said, taking the document and carefully looking through it.
Qiao Xing noticed that she was quite diligent at work, hardly ever slacking off, and always doing her own thing.
Moreover, she was quite efficient at work; she finished the PPT and sent it to Qiao Xing as soon as she started work in the afternoon.
Qiao Xing opened it and was somewhat surprised. What she did was not just simple image pasting, but animated images. Just by looking at her work efficiency and the effect of this PPT, she didn't seem like an intern who knew nothing at all.
"Is it okay, Sister Qiao Xing?" Zhao Yan asked nervously from the side.
Qiao Xing nodded: "You did a great job. Have you done this before?"
"Yes, I was in the publicity department at school, and I did all the copywriting work."
What did you study?
"I studied advertising."
Qiao Xing nodded. No wonder, he did so well.
She suddenly realized that she probably didn't need to mentor this intern, and that the intern might even take her job.
The company rarely hires interns, so Zhao Yan must have some merits to have been accepted.
Qiao Xing suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
"Sister Qiao Xing, is there anything else I can do?"
Qiao Xing snapped out of her thoughts, took out a copy of the planning document Bai Yi had given her earlier, and handed it to her. "This is the event planning for Qingming Festival. You should do some market research first."
Qiao Xing had never supervised an intern before, and didn't know what to ask her to do. She wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do to give her this task.
"Okay, mission accomplished!"
"come on."
"Yes, let's cheer each other on!"
Looking at Zhao Yan's energetic and ambitious demeanor as a newcomer to the workforce, Qiao Xing vaguely saw a rising star in the workplace.
Hopefully, I won't stay in this situation for too long and become a seasoned veteran like those people, otherwise I'll definitely have a bright future ahead of me.
