Chapter 88 Chapter 88 Who do you think you are? !
However, what Shu Niannian didn't know was that for Yuan Qiang, Zhang Jianguo, Hao Jianjun and Xu Zhiqiang, the monthly salary of 1,000-2,000 yuan she mentioned was already a pipe dream.
Yuan Qiang and Hao Jianguo are skilled workers at a construction site. If they work every day, they can earn 65 yuan a month. If it rains and they cannot work every day, they can only earn 20-30 yuan a month. Hao Jianjun and Xu Zhiqiang are guarding sites for others. Their monthly income is fixed, but it is only 40 yuan. Now Shu Niannian has offered them a high salary of 200 yuan a month, and there will be room for promotion in the future. This is simply a pleasant surprise.
Yuan Qiang looked at the other three people and spoke first, "Ms. Shu, how many people are you planning to recruit?"
In fact, he wanted to ask whether he needed to compete for the job. He and the other people were acquaintances and had all served in the special forces. But after retiring, they were all ordinary people. Now the high-paying job was right in front of them. If he needed to compete for the job, he had to think about how to stand out among the four.
Hao Jianjun, Zhang Jianguo and Xu Zhiqiang looked at each other. Coincidentally, they all had the same idea. Personal relationships are personal relationships, but with good jobs right in front of them, they would not give up.
Shu Niannian smiled and said, "I want all four of you. I now have a health club, a counter, a production workshop and a warehouse. In addition, I need a bodyguard, and there are four of you. I will tell you the specific work content when we sign the contract later. Let me be frank. I don't want people with half-heartedness or bad character. The salary I give is high enough. If you have any opinions or suggestions, you can discuss with me. It's also okay to advance your salary, but you can't try to take advantage of my products. If I find out that you have done anything to harm the interests of the company, I will send you to the police station."
Shu Niannian likes to speak out the ugly truth upfront when doing things. This is her usual style of doing things. Yuan Qiang and others patted their chests to reassure Shu Niannian, "We are all people with professional ethics. After taking your money, we will complete the work you asked us to do even if it means breaking our arms and legs."
Shu Niannian quickly waved her hands and said, "You really don't need to do that. If you really encounter something that endangers your life, I allow you to run first. Personal safety is the first priority. Money can be earned again. The value of money is far more important than people. What I mean is that you should not steal from the company. Although this is unpleasant to hear, I still have to say it."
This is probably what every boss has to go through. After the baptism of the previous life, Shu Niannian has become accustomed to it. An employment relationship is an employment relationship. The relationship between people is very complicated, but the relationship between people and money is very simple.
Get paid to do the job, reward if it's done well, punish if it's not, don't talk about favors.
Yuan Qiang and his friends originally looked down on Shu Niannian, a young girl who wanted to hire them for 200 yuan a month. They all thought Shu Niannian was joking, but the next few words Shu Niannian said sounded a bit like a boss.
"Is it really 200 yuan per month? How long can you run this health club?" Xu Zhiqiang asked in embarrassment. The high salary of 200 yuan per month made him very tempted, but what if it was a misunderstanding? Although his previous job only paid 40 yuan a month, it was stable. Although the working environment in the sand field was bad, it was a traditional industry that had been in operation for a long time. Xu Zhiqiang was not worried that the sand field would suddenly close down. However, the health club and production line that Shu Niannian mentioned were industries he had never been exposed to. After the initial excitement, Xu Zhiqiang regained his senses. He did not believe Shu Niannian and did not dare to take the risk. He wanted stability.
Shu Niannian saw Xu Zhiqiang's intention to quit, but she was not angry. This was normal. She smiled and said to Yuan Qiang and Xu Zhiqiang, "I can't guarantee how long my health club can be open. Choosing a job is like doing business with me. To put it bluntly, it's all a gamble. I'm betting on this market with product quality and business philosophy, and you're betting on how long I can survive in this market. Now I'm willing to hire you with a high salary of 200 yuan per month. The choice is in your hands. Whether to choose or not, whether to gamble or not, the right is in your hands."
Yuan Qiang's eyes flashed, he clenched his fists, and said first, "Miss Shu, I am willing to follow you!"
Hao Jianjun and Zhang Jianguo followed suit and expressed their own positions and attitudes, "We are also willing to follow Miss Shu."
They are willing to take a chance for a job that pays 200 yuan a month.
Xu Zhiqiang looked down at his own shoes. After a few moments, he rejected the job. "Sorry, I'll stick with my previous job."
Shu Niannian smiled and said, "Don't be sorry, I just provided a choice, and you have the right to choose."
Xu Zhiqiang glanced at Yuan Qiang, Hao Jianjun and Zhang Jianguo who were standing on the other side, then turned and left.
Lin Xuanyin watched the whole process without saying a word. Everyone has his own choice. Xu Zhiqiang is Ye Zhiqiu's old subordinate. She called Xu Zhiqiang for an interview today. First, she knew that Shu Niannian would offer a monthly salary of 200 yuan, and she wanted to help Xu Zhiqiang. Second, she felt that Xu Zhiqiang was a reliable person. After all, Shu Niannian had just started her business, and she also wanted Xu Zhiqiang to help her.
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhiqiang was so "calm and reliable". He only thought about the stable salary of 40 yuan. Even with her guarantee, Xu Zhiqiang still refused to take the risk.
Lin Xuanyin turned around and asked Shu Niannian, "One more person missing?"
Shu Niannian shrugged and said, "Yes, but if I really can't find it, I can wait a little longer. Security is a very important job. I'm just starting out here, and I can't afford to make even the slightest mistake. So I have to have a full staff, but I'd rather have less than enough."
Lin Xuanyin looked at Shu Niannian pouting and shrugging at her, and she was so cute that she laughed. She gave Shu Niannian a reassuring look and turned around to make another phone call. This time the call lasted a little longer. Yuan Qiang and the other two were a little confused when they saw the interaction between Shu Niannian and Lin Xuanyin and the other two. They all knew Lin Xuanyin's identity and Lin Xuanyin's family members. Lin Xuanyin only had a son and no daughter. Could it be that their small boss Shu Niannian was a relative of Lin Xuanyin?
Otherwise, why would Lin Xuanyin care so much about Shu Niannian's affairs?
Yuan Qiang asked tentatively, "Ms. Shu, what is your relationship with Secretary Lin?" Nian Nian smiled and said, "She is my girlfriend's mother."
She is my boyfriend's mother? !
Yuan Qiang, Zhang Jianguo and Hao Jianjun were all stunned. Although Shu Niannian's statement was rather novel, they understood it. They thought Shu Niannian was curious about Lin Xuanyin's relatives, but they didn't expect that Shu Niannian was actually Lin Xuanyin's daughter-in-law!
They all knew that Lin Xuanyin had only one son, named Ye Jinhong. Ye Jinhong was a legendary figure in the Second Army, with tough tactics and strong abilities. They all admired Ye Jinhong very much.
Especially Yuan Qiang, before he retired, he had a training match with Ye Jinhong. Although he was an opponent of Ye Jinhong, he was completely conquered by Ye Jinhong after the match. No matter its martial arts value, combat deployment, or combat methods, Yuan Qiang admired it very much. Ye Jinhong was the kind of person Yuan Qiang wanted to be, with good physical fitness and high academic qualifications. Unlike him, he only had physical fitness but his academic qualifications were not good enough, so he could not go far in the army. So he retired after he was injured, and his academic qualifications could not support him to stay in the army and continue to develop.
Yuan Qiang looked at Shu Niannian deeply. He didn't expect that he and Ye Jinhong would have such a fate. He thought that he would never have the chance to fight side by side with Ye Jinhong in this life. Who knew that after retiring, he would become a subordinate of Ye Jinhong's girlfriend?
If you round it off, he is now considered Ye Jinhong's subordinate!
This realization made him feel as if pie had fallen from the sky!
Yuan Qiang quietly stood up straight, in a standard military posture. If he had been a little bit disrespectful towards Shu Niannian as a security guard before, then now, Yuan Qiang had a deeper awe for the new job he was about to take up?
He was about to fight side by side with the god of war he admired in his heart once again in another way.
Soon, Lin Xuanyin called another person to Shu Niannian. This person was called Hongwu. He looked ordinary, the kind that could not be distinguished in a crowd, but his hands were extremely agile. In front of Lin Xuanyin, Hongwu performed a show by breaking ten pairs of chopsticks with his bare hands, and caught the vase that Shu Niannian had deliberately pushed over from a distance of five meters away.
Shu Niannian was extremely satisfied. She quickly negotiated the salary with Hongwu. The monthly salary she gave Hongwu was the same as that of Yuan Qiang and the other two, which was also 200 yuan per month. The only difference was that Hongwu received a travel allowance. She hired Hongwu as her personal bodyguard, and Hongwu received an allowance when he went on business trips with her. After everything was settled, Shu Niannian let them leave first. She would count them as working from today and give them two days of paid leave to arrange the things at hand. They would officially start work the day after tomorrow and sign the employment contract on the day they officially started.
After Yuan Qiang and Hong Wu left, Shu Niannian humbly asked Lin Xuanyin, "Auntie, I just started to make money and I hired a private bodyguard. Do you think I am too proud?"
Lin Xuanyin said curiously, "Why do you have such an idea? No matter what time, your personal safety is the first priority!" If something happens to a person, what's the point of talking about ideals and business? Lin Xuanyin also noticed Liu Qin's handiwork in today's farce, and she suddenly realized that Shu Niannian had no roots in Haicheng.
Compared with Shu Niannian, Liu Qin, a second-generation red who grew up in the military and political circles of Haicheng, could easily dig a hole and bury Shu Niannian.
Even if Shu Niannian didn't hire a bodyguard today, Lin Xuanyin would force one on Shu Niannian.
In the next hour, Lin Xuanyin told Shu Niannian in detail about the various networks in the officialdom of Haicheng, such as which family is related by marriage, which family is a political ally, which family is a political enemy, the history of the rise of the major families in Haicheng, and the behavior styles of each family.
Lin Xuanyin said a lot in one breath, but she didn't expect Shu Niannian to remember it all at once. "I'm just going to tell you about the underworld of Haicheng. Although everyone seems to be harmonious on the surface, they are competing with each other behind the scenes. Of course, you don't have to be afraid. Just do what you have to do. If you really encounter something you can't handle, you can call home and I'll help you."
Lin Xuanyin seemed like a different person when he talked about these things. Usually, Lin Xuanyin was gentle, but at this moment, Lin Xuanyin seemed like a general who put on his battle uniform again. Shu Niannian sighed, as expected, everyone in these big families is not as simple as they seem on the surface.
This reminded her of a saying from later generations: You can be lazy, but you can't be really bad. When you are needed to perform, you have to be able to carry the stage.
Shu Niannian was lost in thought, but her absent-minded look turned into something silly and cute in Lin Xuanyin's eyes. Lin Xuanyin dreamed of having a daughter, but because of her poor health, she only had Ye Jinhong as her child. Not having a second child has always been a regret for Lin Xuanyin. Unexpectedly, Ye Jinhong found her a daughter-in-law who perfectly met all of Lin Xuanyin's expectations for a daughter.
She was smart, pretty, and opinionated. She was decisive in big things, but occasionally silly and cute and confused in small things. Lin Xuanyin liked her very much. She gently touched the tip of Shu Niannian's nose with her fingertips and said, "I have found someone for you. Now it's your turn to help me choose someone."
Shu Niannian asked with a smile, "Okay, who do you want to choose?"
Lin Xuanyin smiled and said, "Let's find another nanny. Although I'm retired, I still have things to do. Someone has to take care of the housework, buy groceries, and cook. I'll ask the agent to bring a few people over to show me today. You can help me take a look. If you like them, we'll keep them. If you don't think they're good enough, we'll refuse them."
Hearing Lin Xuanyin say this, Shu Niannian was so moved. Lin Xuanyin already regarded her as a family member. "Okay, today I will definitely help you choose a nanny who is excellent in all aspects."
Lin Xuanyin waved her hand and said, "It's not necessary to be excellent in everything. Good character is more important."
Shu Niannian agreed with this. As she was talking, the agent led five nannies in. They first introduced themselves, and then Lin Xuanyin asked them a few questions. Shu Niannian also asked a few questions. Finally, they stayed with a skillful, round-faced and smiling auntie. Her name was Zhang Qiaoying. She was a native of Haicheng. She had been a nanny for some years. Her previous employer moved to the United States with his family last month. The employer originally wanted to take Zhang Qiaoying away with him, but Zhang Qiaoying refused. Her family and connections were all in Haicheng, and she didn't want to leave them. Even though the previous employer offered her a higher salary, Zhang Qiaoying did not go with them.
Shu Niannian and Shu Niannian both thought Zhang Qiaoying was good, but they did not book Zhang Qiaoying on the spot. Instead, they asked them to go back and wait for notification.
Lin Xuanyin said very cautiously, "I will have someone do a more detailed background check on Zhang Qiaoying. If everything is suitable, I will notify her to come to work."
After learning such a bloody lesson from Sister Wang, Lin Xuanyin would never hire a nanny casually again. She had to investigate the person thoroughly before hiring him/her.
After talking about the nanny, Lin Xuanyin asked Shu Niannian whether she wanted a Chinese wedding or a European wedding. Although she still preferred a Chinese wedding, young people nowadays seemed to prefer wearing wedding dresses. "I have already ordered a Chinese dress for you, but if you like wearing a wedding dress, I will order a European dress for you."
Lin Xuanyin looked at Shu Niannian with smiling eyes. She was different from those mothers-in-law who liked to deduct the betrothal money from their daughters-in-law. She only had one son, Ye Jinhong. When Ye Jinhong and Shu Niannian got married, she wanted to give them the best. It didn't matter how much money it cost. She used the money she would have used to marry five daughters-in-law to marry Shu Niannian. The wedding had to be luxurious!
Shu Niannian didn't have many ideas, and to be honest, she was a little shy. She felt embarrassed to discuss with her future mother-in-law whether to wear a Chinese-style dress or a wedding gown at the wedding.
Shu Niannian pursed her lips and said, "Just make your arrangements, I'll listen to you!"
Lin Xuanyin laughed and said, "Okay, I'll take care of the arrangements then!"
Lin Xuanyin didn't expect Shu Niannian to be so easy to talk to. Well, then she would do as she wished!
I never thought that she could organize her son and daughter-in-law's wedding according to her own wishes.
Shu Niannian had lunch with Lin Xuanyin at Ye's house and then left in a hurry. She was very busy now, and the time she could squeeze out to have lunch with Lin Xuanyin was time she had to squeeze out from her teeth.
After leaving the military compound, Shu Niannian first went to the Xinhualian counter. It had been two days since Xinhualian opened. Although the Qingyan cream business was not as popular as on the opening day, the Qingyan cream counter was still crowded. Shu Niannian flipped through the bills and found that Qingyan still maintained an order rate of about 500 orders per day. Yao Hongmei happily said to Shu Niannian, "On the opening day, we sold each bottle of essential oil for 5 yuan, and customers wanted to try it. When they paid, they asked for gifts. They were not happy at all. But in the past two days, we raised the price to 8 yuan per bottle, and customers no longer asked for trials. They bought it as soon as they came. Customers paid very happily and didn't ask for any gifts."
Yao Hongmei was extremely happy. According to the current number of orders, her monthly salary plus commission would be over 100 yuan. She never thought that one day she would be able to earn 100 yuan a month. In her family, the combined salary of her parents was only a little over 100 yuan, and her two brothers worked as temporary workers in a factory and only got 20 yuan a month.
How could she not be excited! ?
At this moment, she wanted to rush over and say to her parents: Look, I, the least favored person at home, earn more than your two sons who you have high hopes for! Earn much more!
In this era of male chauvinism, it seems that girls are born not to earn high salaries. When the family eats together, chicken legs are always given to boys, and it is always girls who wash the dishes and sweep the floor after the meal. Boys inherit the family's real estate and property, and girls are at most given a few quilts as a dowry when they get married. Boys are the pillars of the family, and girls are money-losing goods. However, boys raised in families that favor boys over girls are often only able to rely on their parents, so their parents let the girls work to earn money to support their older brothers, and the marriage gift is also used as a betrothal gift to the older brother to marry a wife.
This is the situation in Yao Hongmei's family. She used to be a female worker in a textile factory. Others worked 10 hours a day, and she worked 12 hours a day, just to get 5 yuan more per month than others. However, no matter how much or how little she was paid, she did not get a penny. She handed over all her wages to save for her two brothers to get married in the future. She worked in the textile factory for two years, with a monthly salary of 35 yuan. After three years, her salary plus bonus totaled 900 yuan. Her parents did not leave her a penny. Instead, they wanted to get a dowry when she got married so that they could buy houses for her brothers in the future.
Yao Hongmei resigned from the textile factory in despair. Her parents treated her like a beast of burden, but she couldn't really think of herself as such. If she damaged her health by working day and night in the textile factory, her parents would definitely not give her medical treatment. They might even sell her cheaply to some widower who could afford the price!
Thinking of this, Yao Hongmei's excited heart gradually calmed down. She couldn't let her parents know that she could now earn more than 100 yuan a month, otherwise, her good days would be over, and she would never be able to get rid of her biased parents and her blood-sucking brother in this life.
Yao Hongmei looked at Shu Niannian who was carefully checking the accounts, and suddenly mustered up the courage to say to Shu Niannian, "Boss, I want to ask you for a favor."
When Shu Niannian saw Yao Hongmei twisting her fingers with a nervous look on her face, she thought it was some big deal. Shu Niannian hurriedly asked Yao Hongmei what was wrong. Her new store had just opened, so did her employees need to take leave?
Yao Hongmei looked down at the ground and whispered, "Boss, my family situation is special. If my family asks me how much I earn a month, can you tell them that I only make 20 yuan a month?"
Shu Niannian frowned. Isn’t a high salary a good thing? Why did she hide it from her family? However, when she saw the pair of cloth shoes Yao Hongmei was wearing, she understood immediately. "Okay, I'll tell people later that when your family asks about your salary, they will only know that your salary is 20 yuan per month. As for the rest of the money, I'll let Sister Ruyu give it to you separately."
Shu Niannian didn't say a word extra, nor did she ask Yao Hongmei why she did this. Everyone in this world has her own helplessness, and sometimes not saying anything or pretending not to know is the only way to save other people's face.
Yao Hongmei originally thought Shu Niannian would ask her why?
She was ready to expose her own scars, but Shu Niannian didn't even ask. At this moment, Yao Hongmei's gratitude and admiration for Shu Niannian reached a new level.
After checking the accounts, Shu Niannian bought a cake for each of Yao Hongmei and Zhang Chunxia. Yao Hongmei and Zhang Chunxia looked at the beautifully packaged cakes and were so excited that they didn't know what to say. Shu Niannian smiled and said, "If your performance is good, you will not only have small cakes to eat regularly in the future, but you will also get a bonus at the end of the year!"
Yao Hongmei and Zhang Chunxia were already excited, and when they heard Shu Niannian say that there would be bonuses at the end of the year, they became even more excited!
Shu Niannian gave Yao Hongmei and Zhang Chunxia each a tube of chicken blood, and then went to bring them back to health leisurely.
She originally thought that Miaoshou Huichun should be thriving now, but before she even got there, she heard the heartbreaking cries of several children and Zhang Yingying's scolding, "Who do you think you are?! Why can you bring your child to Miaoshou Huichun, but I can't bring my child to Miaoshou Huichun? You are a worker, and I am also a worker. My uncle is the boss of Miaoshou Huichun, and you are just a manager hired by Shu Niannian. What right do you have to give orders to my work? I tell you, in Miaoshou Huichun, my uncle has the final say, and I have the final say. As for you, go wherever you want to be cool! Don't act like a big shot here! You're annoying!"
