Chapter 44: Salary Increase After Only Three Days at the Construction Site
"Of course, you don't have to reply now. You can reply to me after you finish the work in these two months.
In addition, if you decide to come to the cafeteria to help out at 5 o'clock every morning, it won't be for free. We used to have three people working the window in the morning. If you come, you can get an extra 3,000 yuan a month."
Zhao Xiaojing was startled again. She had come to the cafeteria voluntarily that morning because she wanted to study. Just as she was about to refuse, Manager Li interrupted her with a wave of his hand.
"This is the tuition you pay for teaching our employees. Sister Geng and Sister Hou both signed long-term contracts with the construction site. By teaching them, you guarantee the quality of the food in our construction site cafeteria.
If you don't follow us to the construction site, where can we eat such delicious food? If a lot of workers quit, I will have to find someone, right? "
Manager Li smiled and joked with Zhao Xiaojing, stopping her from refusing.
Just kidding, his brain is really working. With Zhao Xiaojing's cooking skills, she could go anywhere. Whether she stays at the construction site is another matter. Even if she does, who knows, someone from headquarters might come and eat her and try to poach her? Then wouldn't he be able to enjoy such delicious fried food?
When he heard Secretary Fan say that Zhao Xiaojing was teaching the cafeteria women that morning, he'd thought that if he could actually teach them, he could pay them to learn. But considering that this kind of skill wasn't usually passed down to outsiders, he hadn't planned to ask. To his surprise, Zhao Xiaojing didn't mind and was actually ready to teach.
Once he pays the three thousand, this girl will definitely be taught a lesson since she is thin-skinned, right?
Even if it's 3,000 a month, that's only 6,000. The company already has this vacancy anyway, and it's not him who's paying. Even if he does, 6,000 in exchange for a gourmet secret recipe is not a loss at all!
"Thank you, Manager." Seeing that Manager Li was not being polite, Zhao Xiaojing swallowed her refusal.
"It's okay, this is what you deserve. There's nothing else to do, so you should go home quickly. I'm sorry for taking up so much time with you." Manager Li said happily.
Secretary Fan on the side seemed to be filling out the form seriously, but in his heart he had endured it countless times. The corners of his mouth were already raised so much that he could no longer suppress it. He silently applauded Manager Li a thousand times in his heart.
Who says leaders don't have good brains? You think they don't have good brains because they're too good. You know the situation requires them to have bad brains.
It's such a blessing to be with the leader! Secretary Fan realized again.
On the other side, Zhao Xiaojing, who had already gone out, was smiling brightly.
8,300 yuan a month! I got a raise on my third day at the construction site!
Food is provided at the construction site, and the 300 yuan accommodation subsidy is enough to cover most of her rent. She basically doesn't spend any money. After these two months, she will have saved at least 30,000 yuan!
"When will Comb Sister come back? I'll make some money and treat you to a meal!"
Excited Zhao Xiaojing picked up her phone and sent a message to Su Yuchen.
Last time I sent a message to Su Yuchen and joked that when she came back to Yangcheng, she could call her sister and I would make Qingbuliang for her. As a result, Su Yuchen really sent a voice message calling her sister.
After that, she was always busy and never chatted with Su Yuchen again.
"Really, Sister Jingzi? Then I want to eat spicy hot pot!" Su Yuchen replied quickly.
"If you don't want to eat spicy hot pot, please eat something delicious!"
Zhao Xiaojing was touched again. Ever since she dropped out of school due to her mother's illness, Su Yuchen always treated her to meals every time he came to see her. He always took her to eat good food and said that it was just what she wanted to eat.
When it was Zhao Xiaojing's turn to return the treat, she would always just have a bowl of spicy hot pot.
"Wow, my sister Zhao has become rich! I've been a little busy with work recently. I guess I'll be back home for National Day. You should get your wallet ready."
"You're busy with work, but you still reply immediately? I think you have quite some free time."
Su Yuchen majored in visual communication and now works in a design company.
"Even cheap servants have to take time off to have the motivation to live! God knows how many times I have changed the colorful black, but I still haven't been promoted! I tell you, being a designer is not a job for humans..." Su Yuchen's resentful muttering came to her face, and Zhao Xiaojing couldn't stop laughing.
It was so relaxing now. Unlike her previous life, when she had been a full-time housekeeper after marrying Zhang Guodong and had cut off contact with society, every time Su Yuchen came back, they had less and less to talk about, and the silence grew...
Even after their divorce, Su Yuchen took a special leave to comfort her and encourage her to be independent. At that time, she was persuaded and thought about finding a way to make a living on her own, but she never found the right one.
After Dong Mei persuaded her to marry a second time, she again gave in cowardly. Su Yuchen called her and tried to persuade her to sober up, but she didn't have the courage. Later, she became trapped in the quagmire of her alcoholic husband and three children, and gradually lost contact with Su Yuchen.
It’s great that Su Yuchen is still here, and they are back to the way they were before.
Zhao Xiaojing sent another message to Mr. Wen, saying that she wanted to find time to visit him.
Now I can earn more than 8,000 yuan a month, all thanks to Mr. Wen's full recommendation. Zhao Xiaojing also wants to share this good news with him and express her gratitude.
Mr. Wen did not reply that day, and it was already early morning when he replied on the third day.
Zhao Xiaojing was still awake when she received the message. A voice message popped up, accompanied by the sound of the empty wind and the hoarse voice of Mr. Wen.
"Xiao Zhao, I just saw your message. Your aunt and her yangko group went to the beach in Shanghai these days and are not home. I am also night fishing with our fishing group."
"We'll contact you when we get home in a few days. We'll give you a big fish then!"
"I heard from Lanzi that you did a good job. Congratulations!"
Then there were two pitch-black photos. One was a bucket with blurry reflections and a fish in it, and the other was a selfie of a few old men making the "V" sign. The background looked like a desolate wilderness.
Zhao Xiaojing, who had been tossing and turning and unable to sleep, was immediately amused and recalled the funny scene when she first met Mr. Wen, who was also fishing at that time.
Zhao Xiaojing smiled and wished Mr. Wen a successful return.
My good mood lasted until the next morning. Perhaps influenced by the old man, I slept very well.
I packed up and went to work. When I entered the kitchen, Geng Mingyan was already working, but Hou Guihua had not arrived yet.
"Why did Sister Geng come here alone today? Isn't she with Sister Hou?"
"You stinky bitch! I've been waiting for you for ages and you just showed up without even telling me!"
As soon as Zhao Xiaojing finished asking, Hou Guihua followed her into the kitchen and started scolding Geng Mingyan as soon as she saw her.
"You stinky bitch, why are you still ignoring me? If you don't tell me everything today, then...what's wrong with you? What's going on?"
Zhao Xiaojing was laughing at the two older sisters' good relationship and their quarrels with each other every day when she heard Hou Guihua's tone suddenly change. Seeing this, she hurried over to take a look.
