Chapter 221 Payroll
Lin Siqiao was stunned for a long time. She clearly didn't have time to say anything, but Director Hu had already handled the matter.
"director……"
"Okay, no need to say anything more."
Director Hu smiled and waved his hand and then said.
"I've already called the finance department. You can go over and withdraw the money later."
"Don't work overtime today. Distribute the employees' wages and benefits as soon as possible so that everyone can spend the holiday in peace."
"Festival?"
Lin Siqiao was wondering, isn’t tomorrow just New Year’s Day? When he looked up, he saw the calendar on the table and realized that today was already Laba Festival.
Time flies so fast. The Chinese New Year is just around the corner.
"Understood, Director."
Lin Siqiao nodded and said nothing more. It was hard not to work hard when meeting such a good leader.
Half an hour later, Lin Siqiao returned to the restaurant in the embassy area.
It's not even dinner time yet, and apart from some foreign guests in the cafe upstairs, there are basically no customers downstairs.
Lin Siqiao went to the tea room and asked Assistant Wu to call in the employees one by one.
The first person to be called in was Chang Xiaobei.
"Manager Lin, are you looking for me?"
"Well, sit down."
As soon as Chang Xiaobei sat down, Lin Siqiao handed him an envelope.
"This is your salary for this month. Please count it first."
"Manager Lin..."
Seeing her uneasy look, Lin Siqiao seemed to have thought of something.
"Don't be nervous, it's not what you think."
"You have made rapid progress during this period. You must continue to work hard in the future. Do you understand?"
After hearing this, Chang Xiaobei's uneasy heart finally settled down.
"Manager Lin, I will do my best!"
"Well, count the cash, and sign this payroll if there's nothing wrong."
"Later, go to Assistant Wu to collect this month's employee benefits."
"Okay, thank you Manager Lin."
Chang Xiaobei quickly signed her name, and as soon as she left the tea room, all the other employees gathered around her.
When they learned that their salaries were paid today and there were also employee benefits, the girls held hands and were so happy.
Soon, everyone received their wages and benefits.
The good thing about state-owned enterprises is that as long as you are employed, you will receive one month's salary even if you only work for one day.
The restaurant's performance was good this month, and all employees received an extra bonus of 5 yuan.
In addition, each person received a bag of ingredients for Laba porridge, plus a pound of pastries, half a pound of sugar, and two pounds of Guoguang apples.
Such a good benefit was something they had never dared to imagine before. Seeing everyone's excitement, Lin Siqiao was also happy.
"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet and listen to me."
"Today is Laba Festival. Everyone should get off work early in the afternoon and go home to spend time with their families."
"In addition, tomorrow is New Year's Day. I would like to wish you all a happy new year and all the best in the new year!"
After hearing this, everyone's eyes turned red with excitement, and many people expressed their opinions immediately.
"Manager Lin, my home is close, I would like to request to work overtime for a while."
"Me too!"
“We’re not tired at all!”
Everyone waved their arms happily, without a trace of reluctance on their faces.
Lin Siqiao knew that these were their true words.
Still, she shook her head.
"Everyone has worked hard for more than 20 days. You should work hard when you need to work hard, and rest well when you need to rest."
"Only after a good rest can we face the next work with a better spirit and state."
"So, no one is allowed to work overtime today."
"Assistant Wu, you will stay here to supervise. Anyone who disobeys will have their salary deducted!"
"ah?"
The employees were dumbfounded. How could this be possible? Wages were deducted for working overtime. If they told others about this, they would be envied to death!
Lin Siqiao smiled and told everyone to do what they were supposed to do.
She called Assistant Wu aside, gave him a few instructions, and then left early.
"Manager Lin, shall we take you home now?"
"Um."
After Lin Siqiao put away his share of employee benefits, he turned around and suddenly saw the packaging bag on the back seat.
Inside was a couple's sweater that she had designed herself, and she should have given it to Lu Jianchuan a long time ago.
However, Lin Siqiao was too busy during this period. He went out early and came back late every day and had no time to take care of this matter.
Lu Jianchuan went to see her several times, but most of the time, Lin Siqiao fell asleep on his shoulder before they had even sat down to say a few words.
Thinking that today is Laba Festival and tomorrow is New Year’s Day.
Lin Siqiao simply asked the driver to step on the brakes when passing the National Defense University.
I just don’t know if Lu Jianchuan is free today.
Here, Lin Siqiao was recognized by several students as soon as he got out of the car and before he even reached the door of the guard room.
"Comrade Lin, are you here to see Instructor Lu?"
"Yes, I do."
Lin Siqiao just nodded when he heard the other party say.
"Instructor Lu doesn't seem to be in school. I haven't seen him in class these past two days."
Two days?
This was a bit beyond Lin Siqiao's expectations.
Lin Siqiao was confused, but didn't say much. Since Lu Jianchuan didn't come to see her, he must have other things to do.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you."
Lin Siqiao waved his hand and returned to the car. You would be lying if you said you weren't disappointed.
But since Lu Jianchuan is not here, there is nothing we can do about it.
Lin Siqiao took a deep breath and decided to be alone.
There were fewer people, but Lin Siqiao didn't intend to just get away with it.
It's your own life, so you have to maintain the necessary sense of ritual.
Thinking about the abalone and sea cucumber that her aunt sent her some time ago, Lin Siqiao planned to use some to make a dish of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Just as I was thinking about this, the driver Xiao Qin turned around and said with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Manager Lin, it seems that we can't get through. There are workers working on it."
Lin Siqiao tilted his head to take a look and saw that there was indeed a deep hole several meters wide on the road, and the cars on both sides had basically stopped.
Judging from the situation, it may not be repaired in a short time.
"Manager Lin, how about I find a way around it?"
"No."
Lin Siqiao shook his head. This place was less than one stop away from the staff quarters.
She doesn't have much stuff, so it would take her no more than ten minutes to get home.
“Master Qin, just turn around here and go back early to have a good holiday.”
Lin Siqiao didn't give him a chance to refuse, and got out of the car with his things.
There are many pedestrians on the road at this time, most of them are getting off the bus.
Lin Siqiao was walking when an old man next to him slipped and almost fell down.
"careful!"
Lin Siqiao quickly gave him a helping hand. An old man of this age is most afraid of falling. If they are unlucky, someone could die.
The old man also looked scared and said, "Thank you, girl."
"It's alright, sir."
Lin Siqiao was just about to remind the old man that the roads were slippery in snowy weather, so he must walk slowly and not be in a hurry.
But when he saw the old man's familiar face, Lin Siqiao was stunned.
